Recently, I came home from a friend's house at around 11:45 p.m. When I went upstairs to tell my parents that I was back, my dad was up and was sitting in his room reading in a book. As soon as he saw me he started not yelling, but speaking in an unnecessarily loud voice. "Kendal Christine it's 11:50 and your curfew is 11:30!" I answered him by saying in a much calmer manner, "umm we never discussed any curfew, ever, so how was I supposed to know that I needed to be home by 11:30?" Not lowering his voice at all, he said "Well now you know." Thinking that the situation was extremely unfair, and that the curfew was too early, I reminded him that my brother didn't have a curfew, to which he reponded that it was different with me because I'm a girl.
This whole argument upset me greatly. Not only did I have to be home, what I considered early, but my dad was treating me differently and unfairly because I'm a girl. There was no way that I could change my dad's mind, because he is extremely stubborn, and would not even consider my side.
