Rules are rules

Maybe it is a parent thing, but when it comes to boyfriend and girlfriend rules... they can be pretty strict. Some parents say that the couple must stay in the living room, and some are less strict about it and let them go into the bedroom. My parents are the inbetweeners. They are okay with us being in the same room, but we have rules that we must follow. We have to have the door open, lights on, and are not allowed on the same bed. I used to hate these rules and ask myself why I had all these rules. I mean I am 18 years old. But after awhile, I realized why they are the way they are. I wouldn't want my teenage daughter to be alone in the same bed and in a dark room with a boy. It is a parent thing. Teens and parents think on two different levels. Every teenager will fight and rebel against what their parents are gonna say, but in the end... they find out they are always right and it is usually when the teen that swore they were right has a teen of their own swearing that they're wrong.
