I'm probably sure that there are diff. kind of friends the acquaintance are usually you get along with you everyday in your life but you may figure it out who's TRUE or REAL friends if your suffering down...if they would gonna help you or just sympathize maybe their the one who are good influence for you but unlike parents do they can't support you? or just saying friends "always" support you? what your parents? are you rebellious child? lol

hey there.. respect your parents' decisions.. they just worry about you.. and i think that friend would be a bad influence on your part because your parents dont want you to be with him/her.. but i cant really influence your decision whether you will help your friend or not since you are gonna be the one to make the decision yourself..
just think about what would be best for you, your parents and your friend.. regardless of what decision you make, weighing everything will help you clear everything.. and of course.. always think about what your friend is asking from you.. if its a good thing that you are gonna be doing then you lay down and explain everything to your parents.. and of course you will also know when your friend is trying to make you bad things then i think that would be the time to follow what your parents have said not to help your friend..
best of luck.. i hope you do the right thing

I think the situation would only come if your parents don't see you helping your friend on something because they think that your friend is a bad influence or you couldn't do anything bout it.
You see, I don't think parents are there to contradict our actions or decisions, I think they seem to be doing so because we feel that we're old enough to know more but they know that we're too young to understand and making us understand would take years before we do realize that our actions and decisions are wrong.
I do believe that responsible parents would do everything to protect their sons and daughters.

I think we should to be a neutral position in such situation. This is a matter of family and friendship. We can't choose one and leave the other one part. A wise person should be able to make such situation come to a perfect situation for all people. I think this situation is not an easy situation, but of course we should give both of them a perfect explanation that they will only bring us to a hard situation. So, if the problem can be solved together, then just solve it without any question again. This situation really needs both part's wises. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

hello sree,
Well,i guess my parents has good reason why they doesn't want me to help my friend.
If they think that it will not help,or will put me into some trouble,then,i will surely listen to my parents.
It's not turning my back from my friend who is asking for help,but,i also need to follow my parents.
But,if it won't hurt or will not put me in trouble...then,i would surely help my friend.
Sometimes parents were too much over protective with their kids,and we cannot blame them.
Becoz,it is always at the end that,we will run for help to our parents when we are also facing trouble.

Well in that situation there must be a good reasons why my parents don't want me to help my close friend. Like if my friend ask my help to find someone who will abort her baby, then absolutely I will listen to my parents and I won't help my friend on that case. It all depends on the situation, if it will do good to my friends and won't harm in both ways then I will help my best friend even If my parents won't allow me to do so.

I think i dont want ever this situation for me.
but that will also depend on the situation.
i think the time if i know my parents will go against. then i will first check out if i can do any thing at my level i will do but if there is need of my parents than obviously i will ask them and not go against them.
