sleeping in the car while commuting to school

I don't think it is a problem for us to do that here. A parent would gladly understand if a child is sleepy and lets him. In fact, when we drove the children to school when they were younger, we encouraged them to sleep on our way to get extra hours of sleep than doing nothing inside the car. This, of course, when they were in their elementary and high school years. Even if they were in college, I don't mind them sleeping on the way to school. We do not consider it rude to us, parents. Cultural thing, I think? Maybe you need to talk about this to your parents.

I think the real issue here is that they don't like you staying up so late. I don't think that you are being rude and definitely not being selfish. Since you are riding with your father I think this is between you and him. Have a talk with him and ask him if it bothers him that you sleep. Maybe the two of you can work this out by communicating how you both feel about the situation. Tell him that you are studying and you are tired and the lull of the ride just rocks you to sleep. Maybe you can try and go to bed an hour earlier? Just talk it out. I am sure it will be OK. Your mother is probably concerned about you but since you are an adult it is hard for her to tell you what to do. This is just her way of trying to hold on to you and control you. Sometimes it is hard for mothers to know when to stop micromanaging their children. You have to understand she has looked after you all your life. Just give her a kiss and tell her you and Dad will work it out! Good Luck.

If it wasn't your father, it might be rude. I wouldn't sleep in the car if it was one of my friends driving unless it was my best friend. But if it's my dad driving, yeah, I'll sleep.

Its not being rude to fall asleep when you're really tired. Tiredness is a natural thing. Besides, if you have to study that early you're going to fall asleep in the day anyway. Try to explain to the good lady that you need to study very early in the morning if you're going to get your degree and its almost impossible for you to stayt awake while being driven after that.

I don't think that this should be an issue at all. When I was in high school I drove both myself and my brother to school. Every single day he fell asleep while we were driving to school and I never had an issue with it. I figured it was because he was younger than I was and also more busy in the afternoons and evenings than I was, so I never said a word about it. The only thing about it that ever bothered me was after we got to school and the parking lot attendents would say something about loitering in the car.

I don't think you're being rude or selfish in sleeping on the car journey. I do this often with I am in the car with my sisters and they have no problem with me doing it, unless we're on a particularly long journey late at night, in which case I do my best to stay awake and keep them fresh. My main question is, is it your mother or your father who has the biggest problem with you sleeping in the car? If your father was getting up earlier than usual inorder to take you to university I could undersatnd it being an issue but as he is just doing his normal journey then I don't think it should be a problem. I suggest you talk to your father about this to see if he has a problem with you sleeping, he may just have said it in passing and your mother has taken it wrong.

hi sepitro, first i do not think it is rude to sleep in your father's car when he took you to university. my father would not blame me for that. and he would think i am too tired, so it is a chance to let me asleep more. plus, if you want any suggestion, what i can give is that making effort trying to be awake the time with your father, talk about some he is interested.

is sleeping inside a car while someone driving is a crime ...no not at all u r not rude u are tried u are sleeping say ur problem.. say what u did in night.. what makes u sleep... they will understand

I don't think it is rude to do so. There must be misunderstanding between you and your parents. Don't worry about it. Just tell your parents why you fall asleep when you are in your father's car. I belive your parent will understand you and you all will have a good and nice trip to school and enjoy your time together. Wish you happy !
