You guys should make a rule that there are no calls between certain times.. Like my friend's parents say no calls between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM. Maybe they will go for something like that.  |

Whoa! I have the BEST idea! They say no calls after 11pm, right? Well if thats the case, turn off all the ringers on all phones and get one of those phones that light up when it rings. I have one, I got it at radio shack. That way noone will hear it ring and you'll still get the call. Just make sure you turn the ringers back on after your done so noone misses an important call! |

no not really. If they can get calls at 6am you should be able to get calls at 11PM..just my opinion  |

Well how old are you? 11pm is a fair hour if your under 16... I had to be in bed by 8pm until I was 16, so consider yourself very very lucky... |

I think more information needs to be included with this. For instance...who on earth wants to get phone calls at 6:00 in the morning? If they are getting calls that early I have to doubt that it is to play games or just "chat". I'd be willing to bet that there is more behind it than that. Also...do your parents have to get up early in the morning to go to work? That may be the only time they can take personal phone calls. I'm sure that they probably just want to set some boundaries for the home late at night. I don't see anything wrong with that. I find it hard to believe that they like being woken up at 6:00 a.m. with phone calls anymore than you do. There's just got to be more to this story than what is included here.  |

I don't think it's right. My parents are the exact same way about the phone.  |

I hate when you say something to your parents and they say you should treat them with more respect because they are your parents..but shouldn't they treat you with the same respect if they want it. Because they always say if you want respect you have to respect others. But how come they expect it if they don't give it. |

Ladynyx I agree!!! Just for the record until I moved out of my parents home, I was not allowed to receive phone calls after 9 PM... so hmmm... they are probably only getting calls for work that early. The house, phone and bills are their responsibility... yikes!! You are just a little stuck with their rules for a bit, and you SHOULD give them your full cooperation, someday you can make your own rules (OMG did I just say that lol I sound like my parents!!)  |

They don't need to show you visible signs of respect to earn yours. Do you have a roof over your head? Do you have a bed to sleep in? Do you have food in your refrigerator? Do you have clothes to wear? THAT is why you must show respect. They should not have to kiss your backside in order to earn your respect. A big part of who you are now is courtesy of them. THAT is why you must show respect. I don't mean to sound like I'm giving a tongue lashing, but I just want to point out the facts. Your parents love you, no matter what. THAT is why you must show respect... |

I like the idea of coming up with the set time phone calls can be recieved like between 11 and 7 no one is allowed to call. That way it is fair to you and them, and your parents aren't being hypocrites that way. *~*Sinistaredge*~*  |
