lilcrazy07 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 [font=century gothic][/font][color=cyan][/color] hey everybody, tonite i went to this thing at my church called vacation bible studies and well there were suppose to be people their that were my age, but there weren't. the oldest of them was 7 and so i asked my momma if i could be in there with the adults, and she said no. and then after the bible studies thing, we walked out to the car and she gave me this big speech about how im anti-social. so i explained that the oldest person was 7 and i am 16. so what my question is am i really anti-social cuz i didn't want to spend the whole nite talkin to a 7 year old? i guess she wants me to be more like my sister, cuz my sister knows a lot of people but she doesn't understand that i'm me and my sister is my sister. and i just can't be like her. so please if there's anybody out there can you give me some guidence on this situation and how to talk to my mom.

WomenAreNuts Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 no bro..you're not antisocial for not wanting to hang out with seven year olds. Your mom is wrong. Instead of seeing your request as antisocial behavior she should see it as a positive thing. You want to be around people your age or older...this is GOOD..not bad. Unless of course you're hanging out with older teenagers and getting high/drinking and what not. Otherwise, surrounding yourself with adults helps you in many ways. Surrounding yourself with seven year olds may make you smile or laugh, but that's about it. Link to post Share on other sites
UCFKevin Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Your mom has absolutely no clue what antisocial means. 1. Shunning the society of others; not sociable. 2. Hostile to or disruptive of the established social order; marked by or engaging in behavior that violates accepted mores: gangs engaging in vandalism and other antisocial behavior. 3. Antagonistic toward or disrespectful of others; rude. While I suppose what happened COULD be skewed into #1, but Christ, what the hell are you going to talk to a 7 year old about in that sort of setting? And at your age, I know there would be nothing more disinteresting than talking to a 7 year old. Link to post Share on other sites
