Hi! Is this sentence correct "I wish I could have pets, but my parents don't let me"?
I have seen that sentence but with "won't let me" instead of "don't let me". But are both correct? Maybe depending on the context?

yes, either option would work. 'don't let me' implies that it is already decided where as 'won't let me' implies a future decision. hope this is helpful

Hi Ailen. They're both grammatically correct, but "won't let me" is more common and natural in this context because it more specifically emphasizes their decision (or will) not to allow you to have pets than their action (do or do not). Hope that helps!

Maybe it's correct but it seems weird.. I would use "don't allow me to"
