Later Curfew

For some time now, I have had an eleven o'clock curfew, even on weekends. When I was younger, this curfew was fine, and I didn't really complain. But now I have reached an age when this curfew is no longer suitable. For several reasons, it is clearly time to move my curfew to 12:30 on weekends. First of all, I am growing up, and I'm soon going to be an adult. Like all teenagers, I need …

…trusted not to abuse the privilege of coming home by 12:30 on weekends. It is clear that my curfew should be moved to 12:30. I need the added freedom. I need to participate fully in extracurricular activities. I need your trust. I hope you will act right away to change my curfew. There is every reason to believe that I can handle the change in a responsible manner. Why not give me a chance to prove it?
