wow :( im so sorry i would sneak the bikini and wearing whatever i want out of the house but honestly you should sit down and ask your parents what they would like from you as a daughter and then you recommend all the stuff you would like or privileges you would like to have maybe make a deal with them and when you do talk to them come with a plan like write the stuff you want to be able to do and then try talking to them about the ones you can do and the ones they wont let you do then simple ask them why cant you do those things and what are they worried about and then you will able to find a way from there how to ease there mind to letting u do whatever

Depends on how old you are I guess. My parents are overprotective of me too.. But not that much xD. Don't worry, it'll lessen up as you gain more of their trust and get older c:

Wow.. strict parents.
Their only protecting you. Try talking to them about it though. Ask them to let up. That's about all you can do.

Depending on your age, those sound like things I wouldn't let my daughter do. Parents know a lot more about the world and how things can go wrong than you do. Take their advice and their instruction; you'll be better off for it. I know, that's not what you wanted to hear, but being a parent myself, that's my view point.

Depends on your age. I'm almost 17 and my parents don't let me go to parties at all. If you're talking about a young persons "birthday party" then it's different. If you're over 14 than these rules are a little ridiculous. The only way you're going to be able to do these things are behind their back, or just outwardly defy them. Maybe you can ask them why they are not allowing you to do these things. The trouble with over protective parents, like mine, is that they don't like to budge. Sometimes you have to just do what you want. As long as it truly harm you or anyone around you. Eventually they'll get over it.
