You are a very responsible person. Your parents, teachers and friends trust you. You always keep a promise. You know what to do and how to behave in order not to get into trouble.
Ask your parents to let you go on holiday with your friends and you may be lucky! They may call you every day, or visit you once or twice, and you will have to make sure your friends’ parents know about the holidays as well. Don’t feel annoyed! Let your parents control you a bit and you’ll get your dream holidays.

You are still somewhere in-between an adult and a teenager so you still need somebody’s protection. In general you’re an honest and reliable person although sometimes you forget about promises you made. At least you say sorry! You have to be careful because a small lie for you may be a really big deal for somebody else.
Your parents’ decision about your holidays with friends depends on whether you’ve been honest and reliable lately or not.
Mostly C
You are not a responsible person at all. You behave as if you were a small kid. You should honestly think about your behaviour. The truth is that your parents can’t trust you. People can’t rely on you. You forget, don’t feel like bringing their books or money back and you are always late for meetings.
You tell people one thing and you do the other. So if your parents say ‘You are not going alone!’ – respect their decision. Probably you would have a lot of problems during such holidays.
