1 - First assess the importance of going to town. If it has any relation to school emphasize those characteristics of the trip. If not reason with the parent and come up with a better time or day to make the trip. Be sure to weigh your pros cons and reasons before approaching the parent, and always remember if you want something be polite.

2 - Let your friend know you can't attend and go home to complete your chores. You never know; You may have time to still make it to the game afterwards.

3 - Ask your sibling When he / she needs the photos by to see the level of importance. You may be able to pick them up after the movie.
