Last summer, my best friend moved to a Reservation where her mom lives. She might be moving back to our city next school year. The problem is, she lives across the whole state, in the poorest reservation in the country, so my mom isn't comfortable with me going directly to her rez. My best friend and I were thinking that I could bring my two best friends (both guys, my mom's okay with me traveling with them, they both wanna see her too because they miss her a lot) but don't know her as well. One of the guy's moms is really cool, so we were gonna ask her to go down to the nearest city to the rez, and meet up with my best friend there. We would go over president's break (after school February 15, come back the 20th) if we went. First off- how do we convince my friend's mom to go with us? Second- how do I and my other friend who would go with us convince our parents to let us go down there. Please, this really means a lot to us, and I seriously cannot live without this girl because we help each other through everything, and right now we're stuck with just facebook and texting (thank god for technology)... If you're wondering about geography, we live in the small state of South Dakota. My two guy friends and I live in Sioux Falls, and my best friend lives in Pine Ridge; the nearest city is Rapid City. We could find a place to stay. Thank you(:... Read More »
