I feel like I’m missing out

For some context, both of my parents have had a very hard teen years, both with parents who didn’t really care about them or what they did. So since I became a teen they have been on my case about everything I see as ‘normal teen experience’.

Anyway, I’m 17, and I got invited to a bonfire ‘party’, my friend did tell me that there will definitely be drinks and weed, I particularly don’t really don’t drink or smoke and don’t plan too.

I told my mum about it and she immediately turned it down because there won’t be any adults at the party, even tho I’m 17 and feel like I don’t need a adult or a chaperone (which my mom offered to chaperone me at the party)

But now I kinda feel like I’m missing out, my friends went out to parties and I feel like I’m the only one in the group who always has to decline and I’m afraid they will stop inviting me because I’m always not able to go.
