How can I convince my parents to let me go to Vegas?
 

If you have an unrestricted driver's lisence, then just bolt and face the consequences when you get back.

Tell them that you really aren't a fag.

you assholes have to come to Vegas when I'm already back in Canada, don't you? Huh?

EEP EEP TO YOU TOO.

You don't want em all trying to fuck you while they're drunk out of their minds anyway.

IT WASNT MY IDEA SORRY

I don't know if going to Vegas by myself sounds any better.

find a good friend and parent that will lie for you. say you're going with them.

do NOT mention that they are all internet friends. it's just not gunna work.

just tell them not to worry cuz not even a hooker would fuck you

Didn't work for someone I know. It'll all come back to him in the end. ******, be honest and just do it anyway http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/tongue.gif

uh, yeah. Just say "this is what I'm planning on doing. So you know where I am." Otherwise, like...yeah, it fucking sucks when they find out you've bullshitted them. Right now I sort of have the "this is what I'm doing, if it's bad, I'll find out for myself. I'll listen to your opinions but i won't necessarily take your advice" relationship with my parents. But that came after fucking up, so I cant tell you how to get there.

Anyway, babbling aside, you're almost 18 aren't you? If they feel you're pretty level headed then I'm sure they won't flip too much.

worked for me more than once http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/biggrin.gif

course, things like that can always go wrong..

"mom and dad.....I don't want to break the law. The only way I am ever going to get laid is by going to Vegas, where prostitution is legal. I'm looking out for the family reputation here"

Yeah, but I've seen first hand what happens if you get caught. And all the angles were covered here. http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/frown.gif

suxors

Yeah, I've gotten caught three times...one of them being when I took off to Vegas. But, I have also gotten away with many many trips. What sucks most is that I'm 23 and have to lie to my parents about where I'm going and what I'm doing...it's just ridiculous.

I'd be really cautious about telling your parents you only know them via the internet, unless they understand that kind of thing. tell them you met them at a concert or something. Or try and see if you can plan it out to where they'd think you were with a friend they actually know. Just try and be as truthful as possible..."I'm going to vegas, and staying at this hotel", but mention your friends and not the actual people you'll be going with. Could you say you were going on a college visit or something? I wish I could say more about convincing instead of lying, but taking a trip to Vegas with people your parents don't know is going to be hard for them to swallow.

But if you really, really, *really* want to go, as in you think this is going to be an amazing experience and a trip you'd always regret not taking, then go with or without their permission. If you want it bad enough, the consequences will always be worth it.

man, i went to another fucking country without my parents knowing. it was the most exhilarating feeling in the world, but man, did it suck when they found out.

Oh yeah? Well... bet you haven't been to the MOON without them knowing! Huh? Huh?
Yeah!

YEAH HUH! I HID MY SPACE SUIT IN MY UNDERWEAR DRAWER FOR 5 DAYS! I HAD TO STORE THE OXYGEN TANKS AT MY FRIEND'S HOUSE!! AND WHEN ICAME BACK I SAID THE MOON ROCKS I BROUGHT HOME WERE SOUVENIERS FROM MY CAMPING TRIP! AHAHA...

http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/frown.gif ok you got me there http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/frown.gif

i like having parents that love my internet friends.

Give 'em an off that they can't refuse. *stab*

3 words: National Grammar Rodeo.

move out of your parents house first kid

Christ. My sister is your age, and there is absolutely no fucking way my parents would ever even for a second consider letting her do something like this. In fact, my sister would never even for a second consider asking them something like this.

Anyway, I'd have one of them come to meet you before you go to Vegas and have them be all nice and shit to your parents.

GET RID OF YOUR PARENTS! ITS THE ONLY WAY, THERE COMES A TIME IN EVERY BOYS LIFE WHEN YOU STAND UP AND SAY "FUCK OFF, TACOHEAD, I'M WEARING THESE PANTS AND I'M SICK OF YOUR SHIT". TOO MANY PEOPLE LIVE UUNDER THE SHADOW OF THEIR COMMUUNINST PARENTS, AND THE SOONER YOU REALIZE THAT ACCEPTANCE AND LOVE MEANS FUCKALL IN TEH SCHEME OF THINGS, YOU ARE BETTER OFF IN PRISON.

TEEN WORLD REVOLUTION NOW!!!!!!!!

just go.


then again, you're not 18, so they might report you missing or have the cops come after you and pull you away from your blissful experience with your fellow netwhores.

but fuck it. go.

best advice...have fun and get your ass chewed later.

I don't know how to approach the parents, but I'll say for a fact Las Vegas is pretty pointless if you're not 21. There's definitely stuff to do, but you also have to note that if you're underage the stuff you can do does have a closing time. Truly, the best stuff is off limits to you, even some of the best shows. That's just my two cents.

say you are going with me, you'l get the money back, really............................................ .................................................. .................................................. .............................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .............................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .............................. .............not

just say 'so im planning this trip in november...' and just talk like its not a question, but that you're going and that's a fact.

can you hear me now?
can you hear me now?

can you hear me now?

i tried this once. i was even at college, and i still got in trouble.

exactly. And then if they say "you aint going anywhere, junior" step back and say "oh no you DIH-INT." while snapping your fingers like the sassy bitch you are.

but you still got to go, didn't you?
and, you're out of trouble now, so it wasn't the end of the world.

college? how old are you?

"If you really trust me and my values, you will let me go."



ITS SETTLED. scouse_dave and I will be married in November! Netphorians in Vegas!
