Dear Nurse Ansalong:
I love ROCKY HORROR. My problem is that I want to see it in the theatre, but my parents probably won't let me. I used to go to see at the theatre every other weekend at 8:00pm. Then they stopped showing it at the theatre because people weren't cleaning up after themselves. Now, there is another theatre that shows it, but not until midnight. Here's my main problem; I want to go, but how am I supposed to convince my parents to let me go to a movie at midnight??? They are very overprotective of me (but, that's only because they care about me) and they don't hardly let me out even after 8:00!!! I need to know how in the world I can convince them to let me go to ROCKY. I already told them my brother would take me, they agreed, but my brother backed out of the deal at the last minute. I know my parents won't take me themselves.

DArEN, it's good to hear that the reason that your parents are keeping you away from the film is that they worry about you. If you brother still doesn't take you, you could try to get a friend's relative that your parents trust. That way, you'll be with your friends and someone that they trust will be watching over you. Also, if you have any other relatives that would be willing to go, then you could ask them. Depending on your age, you might just have to wait until you turn 18 before you can stay out late. Also, you could try to show your parents how adult you can be. This could also take a little time, but you could be in the theatre a little earlier this way...
