A good daughter can't be a happy daughter. A happy daughter can't be a good daughter. The only way for you to protect your own happiness and live your life is to lie to your parents. Learn this as early as you can. Sacrifice will get you nowhere with them.
Instead of being jealous of friends or cousins for having more mobility, realize that their mobility also requires some lying. Every parent has some unrealistic expectations; stop trying to meet your parents' demands. They're designed to control, not to be actually met.
Sacrifice will not earn you unconditional trust or some lifetime pass to be free once you reach a certain level. The expectations will only increase as you show compliance, as you age, etc. You have to drag them down either with outright rebellion or by lying.
For the last fucking time, it's never a child's responsibility to risk their lives and their safety so their parents can grow as people. Your children do not exist to help you realize that they deserve human rights. Don't you dare tell me it's my job to convince my parents.
Stop putting the onus on the kids. The parents are the adults. We know when parents are just somewhat outdated vs when they're fucking lethal. Take a hike. Nobody needs your dumbass opinion here. Clearly, none of you know what's at stake for daughters in this category.
