hi it's me annie

i have this friend at school name jackuwelal (her name is tough to spell so get over it ^^') who has overprotective parents...and she told me that she is going to try to run away from them and i just feel so sorry for her i mean her parents think that she's to young to be by herself when she is actually in her teens and yet they still treat her like a child and never give her enough money to buy lunch..it's really dissappointing to me and i feel like i want to go over to her parents face to face and yell out "YOU MUST BE CRAZY ENOUGH TO OVERPROTECT YOUR DAUGHTER LIKE THIS WHEN SHE IS OLD ENOUGH TO BE A HIGH SCHOOL GIRL AND NOT AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL GIRL! AND YOU MUST BE CRAZY ENOUGH TO NOT SEE THAT SHE IS A GROWING GIRL JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE AROUND HERE INCLUDING ME! AND IF YOU THINK SHE'S WITH THE WRONG GROUP OF FRIENDS YET YOU NEVER EVEN MET THEM TO KNOW IF THEIR THE WRONG KIND OR NOT....AND HOW DO I KNOW ALL THIS?! IT'S BECAUSE I'M HER FRIEND AND I REALLY DON'T LIKE THE WAY YOUR TREATING HER....MAN IF THAT GUY FROM SHALOM OF THE HOME WERE HERE HE WOULD'VE TOLD YOU THAT YOUR NOT LETTING YOUR CHILD SEEING THE WORLD!!" and i would walk off with her and try hard not to turn around if they ever answer me back with like "we're just trying to keep her safe that's all and you wouldn't know what it is like to raise her" but i would just stare ahead of me and say "i know that your trying to keep her safe but she needs friends to depent on too not just you" and walk off

and that's all i have to say....thank you for listening
