Girl: MUm, I'd like to talk to you about the party tomorrow.
Mom: I think we've already discussed that and the answer is "No".
Girl: Well, that's your opinion, but I think I can make you change your mind! Just hear me out, please.
Mom: What makes you think that you deserve to go?
Girl: I promise to load the dishwasher, clean my room and I'll even wash your car on Sunday.
Mom: Well, that's all very nice, but I've already told you that you can't go this week. If you behave yourself, I'll let you go next time.
Girl: What? No. That's not fair. Mum, please. I'm almost 18, you cant treat me this way. All my friends are going.
Mom: Well, I really don't know. Go and ask your father then.
Girl: Fine, I'll ask Dad when he gets back. Just to let you know, I hate you! And I don't know why you have to be soo strict!
Mom: ...You'll understand when you're older.
