the first time she got caught sneaking out, she was just on "house arrest" and still got to see daniel. i think daniel is banned for more than sneaking her out. i think maybe bree's parents are doing this in defense of their religion. as far as i can see, they wouldn't even notice if bree was crying over daniel... they don't seem to take interest in any social aspect of her life. their primary goal is to indulge bree in their beliefs and morals.

also, on the subject of their parenting.. i agree with spacie girl that they are a little nuts. i was caught sneaking out once and my parents freaked and grounded me for two weeks, and banned me from seeing my best friend and a couple of other kids because they were the ones with me. my mom has banished me from several important people in my life because of stupid things i did that she blamed them for. i think a lot of this has to do with her parents denial that bree is breaking away and that it was her decision to sneak out and not daniel's. their precious little girl does no wrong, and they refuse to acknowledge that she may have doubted them. she said once that she felt like they deserved to have her lie to them... and that is just the kind of thought they are most afraid of.

hence, they are being annoying and banning daniel from the house (therefore making the videos a lot less interesting lately), at the notion that he is the one pulling her away from their standards.

and evidently they were partially correct, since bree is doing just what they want her to. Sad

i think it's cruel to keep a girl so sheltered and naive, and i think it is wrong to force her friend or friends out of her life.. it's abuse of parental power. parental authority does not indicate controlling a child, or brainwashing them, or forcing them into a lonely life of solitude.

thus, i disagree with bree's parents' parenting methods.

Remember that this latest exclusion of Daniel was Bree's decision, because he asked her to choose between him or her religion. She decided they were unevenly yoked.

I hope she comes round soon!
