[Help Thread] I have a situation...

[Cuber.Hello.com(:]

So, apparently, I'm not allowed to cube until my parent's notice, so I was wondering if maybe some of you could help out. I will be making a poll to see what I should do. I really need help with this because I already want to cube, and I'm only on day 1 and a half.

Take care of chores and responsibilities around the house properly and early. Then when given a chance, talk to them. Contrary to popular belief parents are in fact humans, they tend to listen and understand when treated as such in a mature responsible manner. Explain, the puzzle(s), the solve, and how much you enjoy it. Show them that it's not just a random holiday trick skill that's going to be gone and replaced by something new next month. Show them the websites you frequent, the new puzzles you're interested in (and not just the more expensive 3x3's, but the more complicated puzzles that will require you to understand and learn in order to solve). If you can show them that this is a hobby that you truly are invested in, that you want to become very successful at, then there's a good chance that you will open their eyes and they'll give you more freedom in when you can do it. Especially if you can show them that you're still willing and able to take care of other responsibilities along the way, such as house chores and school work.

I might have to follow this advice.

Thank you for all of this help! I will try to meet these standards and tell you the results.

You were on the right track with being addicted to TV. But it should be drugs. And you should join a gang.

So, a lot of people have voted, and I just wanted to say thank you, and that the winning scenario is to Just Wait. Can't say I'm not a little disappointed.
I will try a couple of other things, like beg for mercy and fortnite battle pass. And maybe even just doing chores around the house, to get them to come around. Thank you for the ideas, and I hope you all have a Merry Couple of Days Before Christmas.

yo lets just focus on the kid:
1. Your parent perceive time differently. For you, being responsible to yourself (doing chores, homework, more family time etc) a day or two does not mean you are "up to the standard" for getting to cube. May be a week or 2 is how they will perceive as "you are doing good lately" and then you get to request and discuss about you hobby.
2. Almost all your options above is too "effortless" on your end, the moment you actually come out with a non-effortless option and actually stick to it, your parent will know your are getting more mature and appreciate your growth and give your more freedom. Remember, you have to earn your freedom.
3. Remember to be sincere when you talk to them, if they still rejects you, dont be angry, just be/act cool, and try again in a week or so. Repeat this, they will see your growth, and eventually allow you to cube. If they really were angry and yelled at you, dont yell back, remain calm. Once they started yelling they lost half of the battle. Whoever lost their temper first kinda put themselves in the "unreasonable" position in the argument, parents will reflect themselves after the argument when they are in their room by themselves, next time you talk to them again, they will be soften. The more you keep yourself calm, the more advantage you have.
4. Timing is important, dont pick the time they seems frustrated/tired. Talk to them when they are relax/happy. Dont discuss this with them when they are focus on something.
5. Days are still long, a hobby last years, so starting out one/two months late is ok.

TLDR: Grow up, be patience, and think strategically.
