My parents force me to go to the gym?!?
hello all, So my older brother is great at sports, and he loves buy clothes and all that stuff. I feel like my parents are forcing me to emulate him, to go to the gym. I not UN athletic, I play soccer for my local comp team and might play in high school. But my parents are forcing me to go to the gym. I love activities like reading, playing flight simulator and just hanging with my friends, but it seems my parents can't understand! What makes me most mad is that they ask me to help them on the computer (Don't know how to use computers as well as us) but then they force me to go to the gym. I've stop helping with their Technical issues, but I feel bad about ignoring them. What should I do?!!?!

Is it legal to force someone onto a plane?
Parents have the right to tell their children what to do. Parents do not have to respect the emotions of feelings of their children. Parents have the absolute right to force their children to move or to travel. The parents' history is irrelevant. If the parents have custody, they have the legal right to make decisions on behalf of their minor child. The child's religious beliefs or lack thereof are irrelevant.
Can your parents force you to move out of the country at 17?
Yes. Even though you've graduated from high school, you're still a minor. HOWEVER, you should check in petitioning for emancipation (the process for it varies by state). In this situation (and I RARELY say this) you would be good candidate for it. If it’s granted, then your parent would no longer have the authority to determine your residence. In response to some of the other answers: There is no state in the U.S. where a person under the age of 18 is considered an 'adult' unless they've been emancipated in some manner, such as marriage or court decree, and even then they aren't an 'adult' they are an 'emancipated minor'. AND graduating from high school is NOT an emancipating event.
How do I convince my parents to let me start flight training?
I have no kids... but if you were my son, I would advise you not to be a pilot - The odds are against you anyway - If you want to become Air Force or Navy pilot, only 2 or 3% candidates qualify - And to become major airline pilot, there are 1,000 candidates for 50 vacancies - For me, careers of flight instructor or regional airline pilot are not pilot careers - These are just "flying hobbies" wearing a pilot costume... to impress the girls - Do you know that regional airline co-pilots first year salary is $20,000...? - And this sometimes after a $200,000 investment in training and degrees - Sorry, but you need to know the aviation facts of life... You will say... yes - but YOU were an airline pilot - True, Adam, but I joined airlines in 1968, it was completely different then - Nothing like today - Many pilots were Air Force trained, or airlines assisted financially for training - And back then, not many kids wanted to be pilots - There were 20 vacancies... for 10 candidates...! .
Can your parents forcefully send you to Job Corps...?
Here's the deal. At 16 your parents are in control of what you do and do not do. If you get into a job corps program You CAN NOT leave without your parent's permission. With that being said, you should also know that getting into job corps is not a matter of just showing up and getting in. There is an interview process and here's the deal if your mom or dad calls in for you and says "johny wants to go to Job corps" the first thing a good admission counselor is going to do is ask, "then why isn't Johny calling?" Lets say they do set up and interview, let the counselor know that you don't want to go and that you are not committed to the program. The contractors running the programs get paid by the federal government for each student that arrives on center, stays there 30 days, 60 days, 90 days and then completes a GED/HS diploma, vocational training and gets placed into a job. If you're not going to hit those benchmarks then they probably won't want you at a Job Corps. You're right 2 "D's" won't doom you, but it's a start. Whatever it is that you've done to get those "D's" stop it and get your Sh*t together. Your parent(s) care enough about you to threaten you with Job Corps; you keep it at 2 "D's" or more, Job Corps will be your alternative. You sound like a smart kid; go out there and prove everyone wrong! Best of luck to you!
