Pls Respond With Advice

Hello thank you for looking at this Ima get straight to the point. One of my close friends, she invited me to skip school and go shopping a the mall and to eat at a restaurant for my birthday (we are both good students)well I hardly ever go out with friends I never went out with anyone since covid. We are both sophomores and we both have strict parents. My mother will freak tf out if she finds out and I am terrified of her finding out but I also want to live my life to the fullest and make good memories. This year I haven't joined a single club and I pretty much have made no memories. In order to go with her I have to walk through her neighborhood (which wouldn't be a problem but its the hood.) I also live in apartments and I have nosy neighbors who will report everything to my mom and my friend lives a street across from where I live. I am terrible conflicted on what to do. My plan is to pretend I missed the bus and pretend to go to another neighbor hood to catch the bus then I will go to another street (where they wont see me) and go to my backyard and put my book-bag there so that when I come home I will pick it up and pretend to have arrived from school. I am really scared of my mom but I do want to go cause i feel like its a once in a lifetime opportunity to make some fond memories.

A once in a lifetime opportunity?
Go to school.

if you were a good student you wouldn't skip school. there will be other good days, other birthdays.

[bobbinwales]

Dosnt sound right to me. If you skip school wont parents be contacted???

[emmie]

[emmie]

going on poster would suggest she is in US, perhaps they do things differently there.

My advice is your question is too long, most people won't read it.

This isn't a good idea at all. Skipping school, lying to your parents....however careful you are someone will see you. Please go to school, you have a whole lifetime ahead of you to make much better memories and friends who won't try to lead you astray. Covid has been hard for everybody, keep your chin up.
