I'm 16 & I've got a best friend who I'm unofficial with but we've NEVER got physical. We're seen together in school but doing nothing wrong. Lately, the teachers had been taunting me for being seen around with him so I went and spoke with the principal about it, and he supported me on the basis of the fact that the teachers have NO right to interfere in a student's personal life. So, they were pretty much blown off.

And 2 days back, I was skipping a class with him (Bunking is really normal in my school, everyone does) But JUST to take revenge from me, the teachers called my parents to school and lied to them saying we were spotted "touching" each other. We've got cameras in our school so I told them to give me evidence right then but they said it wasn't possible. Also, they called my parents without taking permission from the principal since they knew he'd stop them.

My mother thankfully believes me and is completely normal but she's strictly been told by my father not to talk to me regarding this.
The issue is that he doesn't believe me and thinks I'm dating him. Also that I might have got physical. He's so furious that he's confiscated my phone and is trying to crack the password. I'm grounded. And he treats me like I'm invisible and inaudible. I have apologized for skipping my lesson and answering back to the teachers who were accusing me of stuff I never did but I can never say sorry for something he's assuming. I don't know how to get him to understand me. I have access to NOTHING except internet. I'm on a house arrest. My summer vacations are also going on, feel like my life's ruined for NO fault of mine. My mom doesn't want to help, I've tried talking to her. And whenever I tried talking to my dad, he ignored and pretended like he was deaf.

I don't know what to do. Seeing a councilor isn't an option 'cause #1, I don't have my phone. And #2, I'm not allowed to get out of my house.

Had you not cut classes this would not have been a problem. Take the punishment. Apologize for what you did do and think before you act next time.

Oh, boo hoo. You cut classes, you deal with the punishment.

You don't have your phone, again, boo hoo. What makes you think you need or DESERVE a phone? You didn't go to class, now did you?

You have access to nothing BESIDES the internet? Well, lucky you, at least you have that, because you wouldn't have if you were my child.

Teachers don't "taunt" for fun, there is a very real reason why they report. Teachers are much more experienced in these matters than you think they are.

There is so much missing to this story. I'm a parent, have raised 3 and am still raising a 4th. Your story has so much holes it leaks like a sieve.

Now, if you want REAL help, you are going to have to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

I'm sorry about this.
The rents can be a bit... well, not understanding. I guess sometimes they just don't get what it's like to be a teen today. Your teachers sound mean and nasty. To be honest if it was me I would sit down with them, and tell them the full story. If your dad still doesn't listen, your going to have to just wait it out. After the break make sure you keep out of the way of those teachers, and maybe you might want to tell the boy that it's best you guys don't speak for a short while. I know it's unfair that because of others you have to suffer; I get that. But in this situation you don't really have a choice. When it comes to boys or family.. I'd rather lose the boy. There are plenty of 'em. But once you lose your family, that's it.
Good luck xx

Your summer is ruined through no fault of yours (to quote you)? You have no responsibility in this?

I agree - this is a partial story.

And yes, "rents" can be difficult when they are doing their job, which is raising you.

Be glad you have your Internet and do your time since it was a fault that was all yours, and no one else's. Be a good girl, and helpful around the house and in a few months dad may have mercy on you.

Skipping schools is a serious offense and with a boy??

"The rents can be a bit...well, not understanding. I guess sometimes they just don't get what it's like to be a teen today. Your teachers sound mean and nasty. To be honest if it was me i would sit down with them, and tell them the full story."

What aren't the "rents" understanding? That this teen should be allowed to break the rules, that there are no consequences in life, something else?

Mean and nasty teachers because this teen broke the rules and was reported? In my area that's called "doing you job" because, among other things, the School District can be sued when the student is off property, gets in trouble, there's no permission to be off property.

And who are you suggesting this teen speak with? Teachers? Parents? Someone else?

I know how security/surveillance cameras work - it's entirely possible that the tape WASN'T available for viewing at that moment. Also, my School District doesn't take demands from students - "We've got cameras in our school so I told them to give me evidence right then but they said it wasnt possible. Also, they called my parents without taking permission from the principal since they knew he'd stop them."

I see a teen with attitude.

When a child skips school they should most definitely receive consequences. And I agree with J, if you were my child you would not be using the internet.

Your parents are not out to get you. They are simply doing their best to keep you out of trouble, harms way, and on the right path. It may seem to you at times that your parents want to "ruin" your life, but just wait, when you become a mature responsible adult, you will be thanking your parents for all that they did for you. Including all the punishments.
