Mutya Buena chats to I Like Music

MUTYA: I think you get more respect when you're more truthful. We know how hard it is when you're younger, peer pressure and all that; everyone wants to be on the same level. It's like your parents saying you can't go out, but your friends are allowed to go out, so you're going to go out, because you don't want to look silly. You don't want your friends to say, 'ahhh look, she has to stay in her house because of her parents and they're not going to let her do this or that,' whereas they can do whatever they want. But, actually, that's where the respect comes in, so your friends can do whatever they want, but listen to your parents when they tell you not to do certain things, and I think that's so much better than going out just to make yourself look better. Because, in the end, your friends aren't always going to be there anyway.

I think it's a lot to do with how they're brought up too. I mean some people care and some people don't care about what their kids do. The best thing you can ever do is have respect for your parents, and just chill. There's enough time in the year to go out and do what you want to do.
