How can I get my dad to give me 更多 freedom?

My dad is really overprotective. Because of my illness I have to keep warm and keep away from cold. My dad takes that to an extreme though. I can't have ice cream, I can't have ice in my drinks, I have to drink warm 牛奶 everyday, I can't wear short sleeves 或者 skirts 或者 shorts, I can't walk in the house barefoot, the 列表 goes on. Even in the middle of summer he still makes me do all these. Whenever I try to tell him I'm warm enough 或者 something he'll get angry and he always says things like "act your age" 或者 "don't come running to me when 你 get sick". I just turned 13 and he's using that as an excuse to control me more.

I need a way to get 更多 freedom because it's interfering when I'm with my friends. They always ask why I don't do what they do even though most of them already know that I have an illness. Anyway my main 问题 is how can I get my dad to give me 更多 freedom?

Hi, well firstly 你 need to see it from his point of view ie he does not want anything to happen to you. Now one idea could 你 get your doctor to talk to him and explain that theres being protective and being overly so 或者 could 你 sit down and talk to him. He may not know he's causing 你 this problem. Also parents do not always get better as 你 get older I am 36 drive a car have my own life but as I go out the door mum always says have 你 got everything and be careful which is great if I am going on a long journey but if its just up the road can be annoying. Hope this helps.

I think "sehdt" had some good points.
Now from what 你 wrote, I assume that there may have been a time when your illness was really bad for a time. (I could be wrong.) If so, your dad may feel guilty for that and over reacts to prevent it from happening again. Try talking to your Dad. If 你 need have another family member 或者 friend there with you. 你 might try to gain your freedom 由 using baby steps. Like start with something small. Once your dad knows 你 can handle that, then he may be 更多 open to give 你 更多 freedom in another way. Remember, your Dad did not develope this attitude over night and like wise it may take time for him to adjust to change. I hope all works out well. God bless & good luck.
