strict parents
Current mood:  disappointed

Last night i was bored as hell, so i pierced my own septum.
I decided i would have shown it to my parents, even tho i knew they wouldn't like it, but i wanted to be honest since i'm already hiding 2 tattoos. 
Unfortunately things went worse than i thought, my dad was mad as hell and started to insult me and call me dumb for a PIERCING. He said i should have taken it off or he would have done it (obviously i'm just hiding it in my nose), and he said i'm lucky because i can dress he way i do and i'm allowed to dye my hair so many times. 
i started to reflect on how parents are forcing us to fit in an image, my dad wants me to be the perfect studious girl and in fact i am since i'm good at school, but he thinks (adults in general) that i'm a 'rebel' just for the way i look.
Allowing your kid to dress the way he/she wants to is not being a permissive parent, is not being an a**hole.
