The day the lights went out

It was Saturday evening, about 8 o`clock. We were in our car, my father was taking me to a friend's house. I wasn`t very sure of the adress so we were a bit lost. Suddenly when we were trying to find the steet we were looking for, all the lights went out. I thought it was something wrong only in that neighbourhood, but I was wrong. It afected from the 4th to the 8th region. When we finally get to my friend's apartment, my father told me he was picking me up a few hours later, and I entered to the building. I found a couple of friends in the hall, and they told me they were baking some muffins and making some mexican "tacos" but they coudn`t see anything, so they went down. While we were talking, a friend call saying that she was lost and scared because everything was too dark.We tried to figure out where she was but the call ended. We went to look for her where we thought she was, but nothing, whe couldn`t find her. We suppose she went back home for safety. And even we tried to communicate with her, the telephone lines where colapsed and we couldn`t. So we went back to the apartment and found a flashlight to help us to get things out of the oven an put them in the table. It was very funny indeed. We ate a lot (they prepared a lot of food for all my friends but we were only three) and had some ice-tea and tell funny stories about our lives. It was so fun, that when the lights came back on we all said : ohhhh! and put sad faces. We realized that even things didn`t work out the way we thought we had a great time that we will always remember.

What should I do?

"What should I do?My parents are so overprotective" was the first question I heard after listening carefully to my friend. "What a difficult question" I answered. If I were you , I would talk to my parents, and tell them how I feel. Tell them you need more independence, that you are doing your best to be a good daughter . That you know they worry about you because you are the youngest and only daughter , and that your brothers never asked permission to do the same things, but you are different , you are a women , a grown woman . And you know you still need help to make your own desicions, but there are some things you can be responsible for. Otherwise some day, when you are big enough, you will get bored of this situation and you'll just go away and do things you always wanted to.
Ask them if there is anything they want you to change, or maybe they are expecting too much and they want you to be a perfect daughter. Discussing things is always the best solution, and helps to improve communication with your parents.
