Hello. Hmmmm. Why won’t she give you an answer? Does she have concerns about your friends?

In life we have little or no control over what others say and do. Which is sometimes unfortunate. Your Mom sounds like my Dad used to be when I was a kid/teen. "No"... "Why?"... "Because I am your father and I said so.". And so it goes.

I think your Mom should have given a reason. You are not a kid and certainly have the cognitive ability to understand her reasons, even if you disagreed. While you have no control over her decisions, you do have control over how you handle your feelings and emotions. I can understand your frustration but I feel you set yourself up for the spanking. Unintentionally for sure.

It can be frustrating sometimes but you know what... soon you'll be able to be on your own and you can make your own decisions regarding opportunities.
