Hi. I know this does not have anything what so ever to do with math, I could not find the right topic. My mom is not letting me watch the marvel movies. She let me watch Ant-Man and the X-Men series, also Iron Man 3. After seeing those movies I really want to watch the others like Iron Man 1,2, Capt. America, the Hulk, Avengers, etc. How can I convince her to let me watch them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am very responsible. I do my homework and chores. I am respectful (most of the time.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will medal and fan the person that has a solution that works.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Respect her wishes. Just go to the library and get the comic books ;-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

One of the reasons I want to watch it is because I am gonna be allowed to watch deadpool when it comes out. Also if I watched Iron Man 3, I am confused what happened because I did not watch the movies before. Also I watched Ant-Mant, they are gonna have a sequel with Capt America and I want to be able to understand the story if I get to watch it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not allowed to read the comics either.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am only allowed to read classic novels.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Wow, strict parents :-/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. They think those movies are for sheep and are for the masses, they think they brainwash people.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

In a way they are right. Just go to the library and find some entertaining reading.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The problem is that everything I want to read or watch is not allowed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cant read or watch percy jackson, harry potter, cant read the lord of the rings, bridget jones, or diaries of a wimpy kid.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have already read most of the classics like: Jane Eyre, Shiloh, White Fang, Little House on A Prairie, The Call of The Wild, Little Women, And Moby wingspan. And almost every book on ancient egypt and greece.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

* Moby It wont let me say

OpenStudy (study312):

do they let you play video games like Kingdom Hearts? Kingdom Hearts is made by Disney and Square Enix and is full of awesomeness and feels

OpenStudy (study312):

and don't worry Kingdom Hearts not stupid like call of duty or frozen

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They don't let me play any video games, and only educational computer games.

OpenStudy (study312):

is not*

OpenStudy (study312):

crap man, do you friends have any video games or movies?

OpenStudy (study312):

I learn to read by playing pokemon heartgold

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont have any friends that live nearby

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They dont like my friends because they like the things I want to watch.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Ask them for a list of things you can read and watch for "entertainment."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I already tried that. The list was shakespeare in love, the english patient, king kong, homework, and basically every history/fiction movie.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They also let me watch documenteries.

OpenStudy (study312):

how about sports?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

I only watch documentaries and sports :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They dont let me watch sports. They says its for the massess

OpenStudy (study312):

do you get to watch classic disney movies like lion king and fox & the hound? I here lion king was based on Skakesphere's hamlet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I do ballet, art, and violin. I only like art.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, they are afriad of the subliminal messages

OpenStudy (study312):

Man do your parents let you do anything dang?!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They also dont let me watch any movie that might have bad examples, like rude behavior towards parents.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I like singing, but they dont let me sings the songs I like.

OpenStudy (study312):

but they are like creating that by not even letting you kick a ball

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They want me to act like an adult, mature. I want to be able to do what other kids do! they are completely against that.

OpenStudy (ffasinger):

Have they seen the movies?

OpenStudy (study312):

well my older sibs thought me how to act right and be mature unlike the other kids my age

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can only sing songs that are from the 90s and 80s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know how to act mature, but its just to much.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I want to be able watch movies like percy jackson or iron man without my parents thinking I am a disapointment

OpenStudy (study312):

So I watch stuff from the 90's to early 2000's and sometimes recent stuff but it's so trash, it's like this new generation doesn't even care and no one puts any thought into anything

OpenStudy (ffasinger):

your parents sound way to strict. I am sorry for you.

OpenStudy (study312):

well I percy jackson was pretty stupid though

OpenStudy (study312):

i thought*

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

try doing a lot of extra things; and then after a month or so say I have done this this and all of this. say that you promise to not use the behavior they use as an example

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get they want me to watch quility, but even movies that do have quility like lord of the rings I cant watch

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

lol wth thats lame

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont understand if they say I should be mature, why does it not include being able to watch things that people that are mature can watch.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

These are all questions you need to ask them @sofiaalva

OpenStudy (study312):

I don't think that not watching something makes someone mature, I think it's all about how you take it in

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

because they think you will pick up those behaviours

OpenStudy (ffasinger):

@sofiaalva has your parents ever seen the marvle movies? As a christian girl I can tell you that these movies have morals and very very rarely have curse words .

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

capn america? @FFASinger

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My dad watches them

OpenStudy (ffasinger):

Yes

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

sit down with them and have a convo

OpenStudy (study312):

it's funny that my sibs said that minecraft burns your brain and give you cancer

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

Minecraft is aids.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would get in trouble for even asking. They would probably start yelling at me for being so "sheepy"

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

do ask them. tell them why they are wrong (in a polite way)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (study312):

Because my sibs always said that to me by the time I actually saw minecraft I thought it was the stupidest thing ever and I went back to play my old school early 2000's Kingdom Hearts

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

dont*

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

study minecraft gives you aids not cancer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am very mature I think, the reason I dont have friends is because I act different and awkward compared to most kids my age

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow uh very very strict parents I am 12 (turning 13 soon) and allowed to watch and listen to what I want IF it does not contain curse words if it does my mom tell me to put in my headphones as I have younger brothers. Try asking them if you could listen to something or watch something as long as headphones re in and that Marvel movies have a moral to what they do, they rarely curse and Its what I like. Dad watches them maybe me and him can watch them together ?"

OpenStudy (study312):

I don't have a lot of friends either because all the kids my age are SUPER immature so my friends are older than me but then they graduate and it starts all over again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the problem is that my dad comes from jamaica, he was brought up differently than how they are here. If I would ask he would slap me then ground me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he thinks those movies are a waste of time for younger ppl

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

why dont you tell them that you want to have a conversation were they dont talk. gather up all the reasons that you should be able to watch marvel. ask them to not talk until you are done. dont use things like "all the other kids my age can" use things like "they have good morals "thaey have little to no curse words "I will not use the movies as a bad exapmle "i could watch them in my own free time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (study312):

before you ever talk to them about something like that make sure they didn't just walk through the door, wait until they are relaxed

OpenStudy (imsleeziboii):

sofiaa maybe a counselor with your parents could help talk about these?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow do they let you do anything? I mean its not like your out at 2 A.M in the morning with boys running around town like some teenagers (My 13 year old friend lol)

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

just make sure that you dont over do it. if they say no; do it again another time; dont argue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to get back to school now. I will ask them tonight. I will tell you if it works tomarrow.

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will fan all of you because of your help

OpenStudy (study312):

dang 13. I used to have a really good friend but then she went to high school and got a boyfriend and everything went downhill

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Really wishing you good luck :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks, hope I dont get in trouble :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

talk to you all in a while

OpenStudy (anonymous):
