Asking Permission
You may think that when you get older you won't have to ask permission to do what you want to do.
Wrong.
The only changes will be the type of things that you have to ask permission to do. Right now, you might have to ask your dad if you can go to the movies with your buddies. But your dad may also have to ask your mom if he can go on a golf weekend with his buddies, and your mom may have to ask her boss if she can change her work hours. See, it never changes.
But one thing that you can do now is learn how to ask for permission and how to react appropriately if you don't get what you want. It will work for you for the rest of your life.
