    Don't do it! You should not listen to HEAnCO, because what if you do sneak out and something bad happens to you? Try talking to your parents and ask them if it would be OK for you to go for about an hour or two, just so you can say your goodbyes. If you do not honor your parents, you will regret it later, and if they find out, you will be in bigger trouble than you are in now, and they will believe that you are not trustworthy nor responsible. You are trying to redeem yourself, not make matter worse. If you have to sneak and do anything, you shouldn't do it anyway. Make he right decision and you know what that means.

      OH Boy...
      as a mom I will let you in on a well kept secret.  we do not punish because we enjoy it.  We punish out of love and fear and desperation.  You can never understand the love of a parent until you are responsible for the life of your own child.  As a parent we see and hear and know of all the dangers to our children - many things that we don't tell them in order to protect them from being afraid of the world.  They ground you for smoking because they fear what the cigarettes will do to your life.. They tell you not to sneak out because they know what can happen to children on their own and their greatest fear in the whole world is that phone call saying "your child is hurt or worse"  Please do not sneak out.. You have no idea what can happen very quickly in this world things that can not be undone.  Talk to your parents.. Explain how very important it is to you.  Tell them you will abide by the grounding add an extra day if they will let you attend this even for a limited time.. If they do YAY if they don't respect their love for you and send your friend a goodbye letter.  I'm sure you'll be able to keep up with them via Internet, cell phone or writing.  
      good luck and make good choices .. :)

        PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!!! What Anonymouse is saying is sooo true. In fact it happened to my daughter. Her friend snuck out, and she was raped, and killed because of it. They found her 3 days later, and she was hurt so badly, that if she had lived through this, she would have been paralyzed or would have lost the use of all of her limbs. Her back was broken in 2 places before she died.
        I don't think that you would want that to happen to you, and stuff like that doesn't happen to just girls. Could you imagine the pain that you and your parents would go through then? Just because you got caught smoking and are grounded for it, it is for your best interest and health that you listen to them.
        Please, if they won't let you go to say good bye, then maybe they will consider letting your friend come over and your parents can supervise the visit at home. Love your parents, and respect them for what they are trying to teach you. I know you love them too, so if you all talk, it would be great in showing your parents that you respect the rules that they set for you, and you are willing to abide by what they say. It will go a lot better for you if you go this route, rather than sneaking out, and the worst thing possibly happening. Hope this helps, good luck to you.

        wow. That is horrible about your daughters friend. We see this stuff on the news all the time and it is so hard to convey the reality of the dangers to our kids without making them to afraid to function or they go the other way and don't believe anything can ever happen... :sigh: its a tough job

        I too sneaked out one night when grounded. My father caught me it almost cost me my life as my father was very angry. So don't even think about sneaking out as your parents love you very much. That is why they have rules to go by 2489

        Sneaking out is the best option. It's easy just wait until your parents are asleep and go out your bedroom window, back door, bathroom window, whichever way you won't wake them up. Then all you have to do is get your grog n treck it to the party.
