resolving conflicts

The only conflict that comes to mind on a spur of the moment is trying to convince my parents to let me go to see a movie past curfew. There really weren't any circumstances other than some friends invited me to a midnight movie. My parents have me on an 11:00 p.m. curfew on weekends. Mom said yes when I told and asked her about it the day before, but then dad said no. "This sucks." is all I had to say about it. KWay's mom let her go and she's younger than me. After I told them that KWay's older brother and Caty were going, mom still said yes, but dad didn't. Our little movie outing was on the same night as KWay and Jason's dad's benefit. After arguing with my dad about it, and KWay's mom talking to him, and working at the benefit, he let me go. I'm really glad he did too, I've never seen Fight Club before. It was really good and we all had a lot of fun. I learned that if you try and work through your conflict and explain everything thats going on, getting both sides of the story, the outcome may end up being in your favor, like it was for me.
