I want my mom to realize I'm growing up Options

I want my mom to realize I'm growing up. She knows I have a boyfriend and everything and shes like NO! YOU CAN'T KISS! IF YOU KISS I'LL NEVER TRUST YOU EVER AGAIN! And it sort of bothers me.I want to let her know like I'm not three years old anymore. I'm growing up. But I just don't know how. Now she's like you swore you wouldn't kiss him blah blah blah. You said if you did then I would get hit by a car blah blah blah. I know she just cares but, dude, I'm growing up. I'm gonna go to college in a couple years.

^I agree with Tama. You should have a serious one on one talk with your mom and explain to her how you feel. Compromise with her. Let her know that you're... 15? Not a baby anymore. I had this trouble with my mom too, and I compromised with her. (Mostly doing the chores around the house, but I don't know if that would personally help you)

Don't, however, tell her that you've already been kissing him. That would lead to trust issues, which might result in your not being able to kiss your boyfriend even further into your life.

I don't mean to be a bad influence, buuut, what your mom doesn't know won't hurt her.

Yeah but at the same time we shouldn't do that. Because imagine her boyfriend becomes some weirdo... next thing you know the girl's missing and the parents have not an ounce of an idea as to where she could be. It's always good to let your parents/elders know your activities and who your associate yourself with. And most of the time if you don't, then obviously you're doin somethin that you shouldn't be doin; no matter how innocent it may seem to you.
