I need advice from parents of teenagers!!?

okay so im 17 and i live with my mom and dad and ive had my license for a year and since then ive become a taxi driver to my little sister. When my parents ask me to give my sister a ride they tell me that i get the car whenever i was and its the least i can do. but the truth is i avoid taking the car when i can because its a hassle to park in my city. Tonight i drove my sister to her friends house and then asked my parents if i can use the car to go to my friends house and they said '; no because i dont like that kid and i don't like you going over their'; but if i wanted to walk there they would let me and they don't let my friends come here so the least the can do its let me go there. i don't understand this like i drive my sister everywhere for them and they wont let me go to a friends house because they don't like him? i think that's unfair. but i would like an opinion from a parents point of view so please answer?I need advice from parents of teenagers!!?
Their logic is quite flawed, but I don't know if you are going to be able to convince them. You might be able to work a trade: the next time they ask you to chauffeur her, say ';Sure, if I can then go on over to my friend's house. If I can't, then no, thank you, I don't want to drive.';I need advice from parents of teenagers!!?
Maybe it's exactly what they said. They don't like the kid. They know you won't walk in 20 degree weather, either. I think it's fair because it's their car. Until you turn 18,move out and get your own car, they have a right to say no.
i understad what your saying you should just ask her what her issue is in a nicer way lol
if they will let u walk there but not drive its probably because they think the two of you will leave his house in the car. just walk there if all u want to do is go over there. and all kids are errand runners for their parents when they get their license.





goood luck.
Your parents don't trust that your friend can't talk you into doing something stupid. Like driving out of state to get a hamburger or loading the car up with kids. Even if you are trustworthy, your friend may do something stupid with the car. My son's friend got in my car and forced it out of park with no key. The car rolled backwards into the street. Fortunately there was no accident. Unless you count my losing my temper. Talk to Mom and Dad and tell them that you would like some time off from driving Sis or at least no driving her all the time. Maybe they will listen.
