My parents read my diary!!!

You may not like it, but it's your parents' job to protect you from yourself. You may not have had intercourse with this boy, but you were experimenting and it was just a matter of time before you went too far. Knowing that your parents are very religious, it's understandable that they would react this way. They don't trust you to use good judgment. It may seem wrong to you that they read your diary, but as long as you're a minor, they own the air you breathe. Running away would be stupid. You'll have to earn their trust back. Staying mad won't do that. Use the brain God gave you and figure out a way to show them you can be mature. Maybe they'll let you go to skate night if one of them goes with you. Work out some kind of plan that will give you freedom while easing their minds. And DON'T SCREW IT UP!

i agree that reading your diary sucks. but clearly they felt they had reason to be concerned about you- and they were right. you are way too young to be sexually active, even if you're not actually having intercourse. it's a parent's job to do whatever it takes to protect their kids. so- although the conditions seem a bit harsh, just live with them for a while without being a complete brat about it. then, once you've shown them you can be responsible, try to negotiate the return of some privileges- for instance, ask for the facebook account back on the condition that they have the password and can check your activity.

You are way better off with parents that impose boundaries than parents who don't care what their kids are doing at any given time. If you were to get into any kind of trouble- ANY at all- who would be the people you ultimately call on? Your mom and dad. Until you are of age, any situation you come into that is too big for you to handle falls on your parents. And trust me, if there are adults that can't master all the complexities of sex, it is doubly difficult for someone who has only 13 or 14 years worth of life experience on this earth. Plus, if you were mature and had the mind of an adult you would be able to accept these consequences because you already knew your parents wouldn't approve of you fooling around with a boy- otherwise, you would be quite frank and let them know you were doing it! If you're doing something you have to keep private from your parents to keep them from flipping out, you know you shouldn't be doing it, right?

Earn their trust back- but do it because you want their trust, not because you want your stuff back. If you're sure you're mature enough to have your Facebook and texting back- prove it! Show them you are able to think about more than just what you want. Show them you value their trust. Friends, FaceBook, texting- all that stuff will come and go. Life changes. When you're 35, guess who's still going to be there? Mom and dad.

Your parents- as big a pain as you see them as- would go through fire to keep you safe. You are the only YOU they have! When parents 'flip out' it's because even just the idea of anything bad happening to their child is almost too much to bear. And that's based on love. I can tell you that there are parents out there that let their kids wander into bad places in life way too early and it usually ends up affecting who they are and how they live for the worse- forever. Eventually, later on in life you will be damn glad, my dear, that someone was there to put their foot down when you needed it. Good luck!
