Iam 16 years old and a junior in high school and my parents treat me as if I were 12. I was sitting on the porch with my girl friends at 9 p.m. and my mother yells out to me, 'Time to come in!" I could have dropped dead.

They had just pome over at 8:30. They left me anil I was embarrassed. My parents could have at least let me stay out all 10:00 p.m. That's just one example.

Last March the USCC Administrative Board voted to end the USCC's relationship with the CYO federation. The committee's recommendation was based on budgetary considerations which, it said, made it impossible for the USCC to provide field services to various organizations. Regional coordinators, under the direction of Msgr. Francis Weldgen of Buffalo, N.Y., surveyed diocesan youth directors across the country to determine the new format. "In light of the' Gospel message, the federation will WASHINGTON (NO- After 50 years the work of the National Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Federation has come to an end, but a new structure, the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry, will take over.

The new organization was unanimously adopted by the National Advisory Board for Youth Ministry at its annual meeting Jan. 20 in Philadelphia. The original federation, which was to end in January, was made up of affiliated member dioceses from throughout the United States. For the past 30 years the CYO federation has been housed at the headquarters My father gets real mad if I use an expression like, If I happen to say it while I'm talking, he fills me in on what a disgusting term it is. He won't let us use any "hippie expressions as he terms them.

But what really peeves me is this: my parents said that after my 16th birthday I could date. I am now 16 and haven't dated once. I have done nothing to make my parents distrust me. Yet they say I can't go in a car with a boy. If I ask them how you are supposed to get where you're going, they 'Take a bus.

Father, I think I should be trusted a little. My parents should treat me as if I had a half ounce of brains in my head. I know I'm not an adult yetbut I'm not a child either.

You still have a lot of time to date. Third quarterly regional meetings to be held Feb. 7 by six CYO regions Dating will mean more to you now and be far less dangerous than it would have been a year or two ago.

Parents should stick by agreements they make. your parents have backed down on an it isn't fair, unless some new, important circumstances distate otherwise. It may be they are not opposed to your dating, but are afraid of teenage drivers. A lot of boys your age have just gotten their drivers' licenses and some of them are not too proficient in driving or are careless or reckless. Try a bus a few times and see how that works out.

Continue to try to keep open the lines of communication with your parents. If that breaks down completely, then your life can really become miserable. Tell your parents how and why you feel the way you do, especially about the 9:00 p.m. curfew business when you have Communication is a two-, way street, so be prepared to listen, also and to get your parents' view of things.

According to the plan, the federation, through a network of diocesan, regional and national structures; will provide leadership and a national forum for the voice of Catholic youth. It will promote "multicul- rural development of youth ministry" and peer leadership whenever possible. The new federation will be governed by a board of directors which will approve policy statements on issues that affect youth ministry.

There will also be an execu- rive committee consisting of the regional coordinators and the youth council. Msgr. Weldgen said the new federation, like its predecessor, will continue to hold a national conference for Catholic youfh ministry every two years for adults working with youth and will provide young people with a national forum and leader- ship training opportunities. But in place of the one tional CYO convention, there will be two national Catholic youth conferences in various, parts of the country every -y two years. Msgr.
