bertusgeert 1 #1 April 18, 2004 So one of my girl friends wants to go jump really bad, so does one of her friends. Their parents are sayin NO. They have done what they could to tell their parents it is safe. Tactics to go about it? Her jumpin against he parents will is not an option. --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdgregory 0 #2 April 18, 2004 Have her tell them she has decided to do one of two things. And then tell them she wants them to decide which one. 1.) Skydive 2.) Be a hooker. I'm betting they pick skydiving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tink1717 2 #4 April 18, 2004 If she is old enough to jump, she is old enough to make her own decisions. Tell her to go and tell them about it later. Or better yet, show them the video.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!)

kpjumps 0 #5 April 18, 2004 Sounds like it is time for her to move out of their house and become an adult. No kidding. I am 33 and I am VERY respectful of my parents. I live ten minutes from them and see them often. I can honestly say my mom is now one of my best friends. She NEVER would, but if she forbid me to do something, I would nicely tell her that while I respect her opinion THAT is what is was, AN OPINION. Then I would tell her that while we may not always see eye to eye on the choices I make you need to respect my right to make them. Then I would say I love you Mom and Dad, but I am going to skydive and if you don't want me to discuss this aspect of my life with you, then I will respect that and not talk to you about it. Beyond that, there is no room for discussion. Just my .02! __________________Your character will ultimately determine your destiny. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
