Ahh, Ive had issues like these in the past and I admit, until now I still get it! Nung early teens pa ko, mga 14 to 16 and strikto talaga ng parents ko saakin, kahit mga tita and tito's ko, mga parents ng mga kaibigan ko nagrereact kung bakit daw ganun sila ka strikto sakin eh matino naman daw ako. BUT, andun din parin nmn ung pangaral ng iba that 'its for my own good' 'parents knows best' and you know what? They're right! Gasgas na ung linyang yan pero everytime na ginagamit nila, hindi nawawala ung meaning. Im still young now, Im 18 this October din so were the same age just slightly older.. Pero since i turned 17 mas narealise ko na tama tlga sila.. parents man or kuya..
You just have to earn their trust, show them that you can be responsible and sensible with your own actions. Kung di ka man nila pinayagan sa isang gimik, want kang mag dabog, tampo or mag tantrums or something, ipakita mo na 'ayus lang kahit hindi' kasi in that mas mkikita nila na your mature enough to cope with it..
Ako, ive always wanted an older brother na ganyan may pagka stricto din. Pero ako lang kasi ung babae sa lahat nming mag pipinsan, so i get it all from my other older kuya-pinsans and uncle!
One day, ma mimiss mo din yan, I know your kuya has been through a lot of that already..
tought world out there, Ayaw lang siguro ng kuya mo na maranasan mo un ng hindi ka pa prepared. Goodluck sis
