Once I had access to a car, I had set times I needed to be home by, but it varied by event
01/30/2013
I did until I was 16 or 17. I had a 30 hour a week job, school and good grades. So my parents did not worry about me staying out late doing things I should have not been doing.
01/30/2013
Not really. My dad tried to make one a couple times, but he never stuck to it. I could pretty much do what I wanted on weekends, but I had to be home at a reasonable time on school nights.

I still do D<

nope. Though I think that was because I never wanted to stay out late! I admit to being a goodie-two-shoes!

Yes - but I violated it regularly.
01/31/2013
No my parents didn't care when i was home or if i even came home most nights.
01/31/2013
No I didn't. As long as I called home telling them how late I would be, or, if I was going to be later than expected, I called to let them know that I was okay.

No, but only because I was such an introvert that I hardly went out. When I did, it was always with my friends who were responsible, so my mother trusted us. I suspect I would have had a curfew if C and I had dated back then - he was such a trouble-making pothead at the time.

No because I didn't have access to a car. So my curfew was either stay the night with some one, find a ride home, or don't go out.

My parents had a strict policy, but I never violated it. When I finally did come home ultra late...like 4 am (after falling asleep at a drive in, no kidding), as a teen, they trusted me enough that even though they stayed up, when I got home they said, "are you okay, we were worried". I said "yes, but...." and they cut me off, and said, "we don't need to know, we trust you, just glad you are home okay...good night"...and left for bed. I stood there STUNNED for half an hour. No kidding.

That was my thing too, and my hubbies with his folks. We were both very good kids. Very good students, so the folks cut us a lot of slack. They knew we were not getting into anything.

i didn't really have one I was a pretty responsible kid so they trusted me.
01/31/2013
I had one, but it was pretty lax for a kid. I only had to be home by midnight.

Before I got a car, it was always either dark or 6 PM (dinner time), whichever came first. After I got a car, it was 10 PM, midnight on Friday and Saturday. Those were the rules. And rules, I figured, were meant to be broken. But I always had an alibi.

Yes, but it really depended. I think it was 8 or 9pm when I was in middle school, but my mother let me stay out until 10 if she knew I was with certain friends and inside. During high school it was 10pm, and then later 11pm. Towards my senior year my mother became a little lenient when she got me a cell phone and I was allowed out until midnight on weekends. Some nights I'd stay out until 3am when I was 17/18 and my mother didn't really care too much so long as I was at home when she got up the next day, and so long as I always had my phone on and let her know where I was.

Never had a curfew. I went home whenever my friends went home.

I never went anywhere or did anything, thus, no need for one.

When I was 17-18 and started going out and spending time at my BF's house, my parents started telling me I should be home by 9:30. I would usually push the limit and come home later. Sometimes my parents tried to enforce it, but then I think they just gave up.

When I went to high schoold it was set as 11:00pm, I thought I was in heaven at the time and was staying up until all hours, my previous curfew was at 9pm
