im really trying to to be a disney channel star i know i have potiental and i don't want to settle for anything less. Its just my family wants to go another route when i know this is what i want to do so help! Do you have any tips or advice for an aspiring teen actress whose parents don't believe in them?
A great deal of actors have potential but the industry is far from fair and most...the majority of those dreams end in failure. Now, this is not a reason enough not to try but you are a teen and Disney is not the end all be all of entertainment, though it is a huge elephant in the room. The business at large however is like a marathon race that will have its peaks and valleys.
As an aspiring teen actress do what you can for now. All the plays that you can do, becoming a member of SAG in whatever area you live in. If you live in a major city like NY or LA you can pursue the business just like any other actor. If not, you will have to wait until post college to pursue but don't worry, the business is not going anywhere. It was here before you, it is here now and will be here in a few years or even long after you've left it.
Out of the many, many shows Disney does, out of all their productions...how many hundreds of kids do they employ? Now how many can you name that made the cross over into adulthood as a working actor or even from one year to the next? While a precious handful do make it, most do not. They fail to adjust or simply get left behind. The Disney appetite is voracious and the ugly unfortunate side of it is that they churn through talent.Do you have any tips or advice for an aspiring teen actress whose parents don't believe in them?
You have to understand most aspiring actors/actresses don't make it, they're probably just don't want you to put in all this hard work and then be let down. If it's something you really want to do, go for it, they'll come around one day or you'll realize why they feel the way they do.
You have to prove yourself to them before you can prove yourself to Disney. If you are unable to convince all those around you, You need experience. Find as much local theater as you can. Get involved. Prove your self.
Good Luck
I have the same problem and I would try to do it by urself that's what i'm going to do. Maybe we can do it together
sit down with your parents and talk to them about this. Tell them that this is your dream and you wanna fulfill it

Love Advice for young teens?
There's this girl i really like but i don't know what to say, when i don't talk i try to build up the courage to talk, but when i do talk i say something stupid or i get stubborn. I know i can't make her love me, and i don't know if she loves me or not, i just need some advice.Love Advice for young teens?
the most attractive thing about someone is a person who is comfortable with who they are. OK, you can't use words like Vince Vaughn. But, if your happy with yourself as a shy geek, then she might find that she likes you.
but- first you need to like yourself.Love Advice for young teens?
i was the same way when i wanted to talk to my now girlfriend, everytime i talked i made some dumb joke but in between all that i honestly told her that i was shy and that she made me nervouse and she asked me why i was nervouse and i honestly told her that i had feelings for her, she ended up liking me more than i like her as so she puts it.
You really need to get over the shyness to talk. You have to have confidence in yourself. Ask yourself this: Why would a girl want to be with you if you can't even build up the confidence to talk to her?! Shes going to want a guy who isn't afraid to talk to anyone.
Its ok. . . you might be nervous, but just go up to her and talk! It'll become much better while in the conversation. good luck!
follow your heart and see what happens if it doesnt turn out good forget it remember if you dont you will never know
Just say ';hey'; when you see her or make a comment about a teacher you have in common.
But if she shows resistance, then stop.
run! stay single until you are 55
i have this same problem around guys! just talk to her like she is one of ur friends. but make sure u r still respectful and nice. girls really like that. u cant think about it too much. it may not be the best advice but i hope i helped!
crawl before you walk...theres a fine line between love and like...its easy to say but hard to do...letters??
okay, all you have to do is be yourself. do not try and act any different around her than you would your friend. and once she sees your true personality, then it will become easier. and you wont get so nervouse around her. good lick buddy! we all went trough the same thing!
first forget the love part on both side let that come with time
just enjoy what you do have right now.
and the only time you can say something dumb to a women is if you insult her.
always say what you feel take your time dont think so much do it with feeling.
count top three let it out.
always tell her how lovewly she is pay full attenchen on what she wears, have her hair done her perfume whay she say stay focus pay attenchen and roll with it
dont say i love you not now save it for a very speaical moment(some month or so).
find out her faovrite color flowers surprize her with a gift every friday card with some nice word YOU WROTE and a teddy bear.skin care

Leave your hair wavy. but pin back the front section of your hair with a cute clip:

I am 15 and when I dress up I love to do a purple smokey eye, so instead of using black and grey use light and dark purple. Also do foundation with a little pink blush and eyes with mascara but no eyeliner.
wear a light eyeshadow, it looks nice, but not fake

Teens: Give me some advice?
I have kids aged 7 and 9. What should I do between now and when they are teenagers to make sure they are happy, self-confident, and keep the trust between us so they will take my advice when they are exposed to dangerous choices?Teens: Give me some advice?
As they start to get older and become middle schoolers, they're going to change-some change drastically others stay relatively the same. Make sure you give them some freedom but only in exchange for responsiblity. For example, make them clean the bathroom before going out with friends. This will help them in the long run by teaching them to take care of their priorities first, then have fun later. I just turned 15 a few weeks ago, and I think my parents have done a pretty good job so far in keeping me in check. Always make sure you know who they are hanging out with. Friends have a HUGE impact on their behavior and judgement. For example, my sister who is now 21, started dating a junior (17 yrs old) when she was a sophomore (15)...and thats when she lost her virginity. Crazy, huh? Because of that incident, my parents are always keeping tabs on my friends, and it makes me feel good that they care so much, but also I would like a little more trust from them. Teenage years are the craziest and most life changing years of our lives, so it's pretty hard to mess things up as a parent as long as you show your kids care, trust, and discipline, you'll be fine. Hope this helped!Teens: Give me some advice?
Some tips:
1) Talk to them often about sex/drugs but don't go overboard.
2) Tell them that it is important for them to have healthy bodies, but weight is not important (If I were you, I would actually take scales out of the house, especially if you have girls)
3) Make sure they know that you are open to talking to them. Tell them that if they do something wrong, you won't get angry with them as long as they are honest with you and take the consequences of their actions
4) Just be there. Most teens naturally go to their parents when they are upset about something, but sometimes parents seem inaccessable. Listen if they have something to tell you, no matter how unimportant it may seem.
5) When your kids come to you with a problem and talk about it, don't bring up that problem the next time you are talking to them. My mom always does that. Wait for them to bring the problem up again themselves. Don't check up on it. Sometimes they have problems that they need to talk about once but don't really want to talk about again because they got better and they don't want reminders.
6) Emphasize internal beauty rather than external. Teach your kids to be happy with themselves the way they are and their adolescent years will be much easier. Also, teach them healthy eating habits because teens tend to forget these things.
7) Teach your kids now how to do simple household chores. Teenagers tend to become more independant and want to get things done themselves. If they know how to make simple things and feed themselves, life will be easier for them later.
8) Teach them good study habits in school. School only gets harder when you get older, and a sense of organization and the ability to plan makes things a lot easier.
9) Relax. A lot of things kids need to learn before they become teens, they learn on their own. Don't be overbearring and give your kids a little space. Set boundaries and let them wander a little to figure things out. It will help.
Good luck! I'm sure you'll do fine!
be their friend, and DONT talk down about yourself, becuase your their role model, like for example dont be like '' man my hair sucks today or i need to loose weight!'' because it''ll just carry on over to them and make them have no confidence about themselves. because they see you as beautiful, andthen they think '' oh well if she's that beautiful and feels that way, how must i look...'' anyway, just be their friend, listen to them when they want to talk, dont get angry in anything! thats what most kids are afraid of that their parents will get mad at them if they tell them certain things, be VERY paitent and calmed. and later on they will feel comfortable talking with you about anything.
You give them choices
If you do ';this'; then ';this'; will happen or be the result of your actions
However if you do this then the result will be such
They will decide the option with the best outcome
Your children are like all others, they just need the outcome of their actions to be illuminated before them and they will make the best decision
when they want to talk to you about something dint pretend they are 5 years old. talk to them like you would to anyone else. answer their questions seriously, my mom talked to me seriously and answered all of my questions and i tell her about EVERYTHING. also don't pressure them into talking to you (unless it is important) they will talk to you when they are ready. give them some space and they will talk to you.
me and my sister are 2 years a part too and we like to go places. well i'm now 15 and my sis is 17 so we have become close in that time period. we liked to do things together like play outside and play the playstation of course!!! lol just keep them close because this is the time where they will really start to know what life is about and knowing that they have a sibling to count on when ever need be is a great feeling. good luck!! best wishes
i'm a teen and i have smoking problems cause my parents always smoked and let me around people who smoke in the house in the car and around us when we were kids make sure u don't let that happen or they'll end up like me and my best friend trying to quite cause we know its not good but its way hard after u get addicted one time is all it takes
Im not a teen, but I read a book called ';how to behave so your kids will too'; and ';children live what they learn';. The books give a lot of examples of how to build their independence, self-esteem, self-confidence, etc.
Helped me with my son.
encourage them, let them have there space but be there and talk with them. let them know your always there for them, and most importantly let them express themselves for who they really are
have rules and boundaries and stick with them - it shows you care

What advice do i need in teen parenting?
Im a mommy to be and im 17, what advice should i take?What advice do i need in teen parenting?
don't have another child until you finish college, have a career, and are marriedWhat advice do i need in teen parenting?
patience is key. put your baby before yourself at all times..all times.
don't leave your baby behind so you can have fun with your friends.
be responsible and just put the best of you into your parenting. give lots of love/cuddles. that is so important to the development of a baby.
research research research anything that you put into your childs body.ex:medicine/vaccines. don't trust peoples advice just because they are doctors...ect. listen to your motherly instincts. read up on pregnancy/babies development,ect. keep a journal of your pregnancy and how you feel so your baby can see it when they grow up :)
take pics of your growing bellly :) breast feed if you are able to it is the best for the baby. a baby can survive on formula but a baby THRIVES on breast milk and the bond is amazing.
at the end of the day people will try to intrude and give you their advice/their parenting style but only you can choose what is right for you and your child.
good luck.
i hope you can continue with your studies to give your child and yourself a bright future. good luck.
The best advice is: Lots of people are going to give you their opinions or advice, pick through them and follow which you will... Don't get upset when someone tells you your doing ';this'; wrong... Everyone raises their child differently... It is your freedom to do so. Just politely tell them that is not how I do it but thanks for the suggestion. Oh and don't let strangers touch your baby, but also don't get annoyed when they ask. It will happen, people love babies!
Well first don't listen to any rude comment that people say to you, also congrats on your baby!!!
Make sure to go to all of your appointments, eat right, dont do drugs or drink. Start getting stuff early for your child.
%26amp; be the best mother that you can be!
Good luck!
When people try and tell you how to raise your baby in a nice way, just smile and nod your head. Listen to what they have to say, but that doesn't mean you have to do what they say. I've learned that everyone has an opinion on how to raise a child and sadly some of them think that their way is the correct way.
Don't let others, like your mom, aunts, grandmas try and take over parenting. If they do something to your baby that you don't want them to, tell them. Set down some rules, make it clear to them that you're the mother of the child, not them.
People will always compare your child to other children around their age. If this annoys you, just suck it up because there is nothing you can do about it. It annoys me and I've tried to point out that all babies are different and that before the age of 1, there is a big difference in what a 3 month old can do and what a 6 month old can do but it only caused them to compare my son to a different child or to their own child when he/she was the same age.
Good luck being a mommy. You never realize how hard it is until you become one. It's amazing how fast you'll learn how to tend to your child's needs.
Firstly Goodluck[: im sure if you set your mind to it you could be excellent.
Basically it will be tough - ofcourse it will i mean it is for every mommy-to-be. You will need as much support as you can try and stay calm just before the birth do not worry about anything my auntie was telling me how when she had my cousin she kept leaping off the bed worried about if she turned the oven off or if she boiled the kettle, xD. so don't fluster yourself with thoughts don't worry about the birth either ok? Honestly if you worry yourself it will be so tough, ofcourse dont smoke - you should know this anyway Lol. If you can go for a walk atleast every two days that way it won't be majourly uncomfortable when you become huge :], i also found this link;- http://www.bygpub.com/natural/pregnancy.鈥?/a>
it tells you things you should and shouldn't avoid whilst pregnant :] the internet should have alot of information you need; plus talking to your mum will be alot of help - shes been through it [ofcourse!] Don't block anyone out, you need all the support you can get :]
Goodluck; i hope everything goes really well鈾?br>

As others said you will get lots of advice some of it great some of it bad.Look at it all with a grain of salt and remember that not everyone that claims to be a parent really is. Some are perv's claiming to be parenting so they can get off on how others discipline their children. Make sure your family knows its your child to raise as you see fit, but don't be afraid to ask for their help or advice.
I suggest taking a parenting class or a few parenting classes. Start with ones on baby care, its not easy. I was a mom at 19, and I wasn't as ready as I thought I was. Taking parenting classes was a big help. Remember that this is your first child your going to make mistakes, don't beat yourself up about them, learn from them and don't make them again.
You don't have to do things your parents way, but if you believe they were good parents then it is a good starting point to model yourself as a parent on.
There are plenty of free hot lines you can call if your ever stressed past your breaking point and you need to vent to someone. They offer these services free.
Most of all, stay strong and good luck.

take pics of your growing bellly :) breast feed if you are able to it is the best for the baby. a baby can survive on formula but a baby THRIVES on breast milk and the bond is amazing.
at the end of the day people will try to intrude and give you their advice/their parenting style but only you can choose what is right for you and your child.
good luck.
i hope you can continue with your studies to give your child and yourself a bright future. good luck.
The best advice is: Lots of people are going to give you their opinions or advice, pick through them and follow which you will... Don't get upset when someone tells you your doing ';this'; wrong... Everyone raises their child differently... It is your freedom to do so. Just politely tell them that is not how I do it but thanks for the suggestion. Oh and don't let strangers touch your baby, but also don't get annoyed when they ask. It will happen, people love babies!
Well first don't listen to any rude comment that people say to you, also congrats on your baby!!!
Make sure to go to all of your appointments, eat right, dont do drugs or drink. Start getting stuff early for your child.
%26amp; be the best mother that you can be!
Good luck!
When people try and tell you how to raise your baby in a nice way, just smile and nod your head. Listen to what they have to say, but that doesn't mean you have to do what they say. I've learned that everyone has an opinion on how to raise a child and sadly some of them think that their way is the correct way.
Don't let others, like your mom, aunts, grandmas try and take over parenting. If they do something to your baby that you don't want them to, tell them. Set down some rules, make it clear to them that you're the mother of the child, not them.
People will always compare your child to other children around their age. If this annoys you, just suck it up because there is nothing you can do about it. It annoys me and I've tried to point out that all babies are different and that before the age of 1, there is a big difference in what a 3 month old can do and what a 6 month old can do but it only caused them to compare my son to a different child or to their own child when he/she was the same age.
Good luck being a mommy. You never realize how hard it is until you become one. It's amazing how fast you'll learn how to tend to your child's needs.
Firstly Goodluck[: im sure if you set your mind to it you could be excellent.
Basically it will be tough - ofcourse it will i mean it is for every mommy-to-be. You will need as much support as you can try and stay calm just before the birth do not worry about anything my auntie was telling me how when she had my cousin she kept leaping off the bed worried about if she turned the oven off or if she boiled the kettle, xD. so don't fluster yourself with thoughts don't worry about the birth either ok? Honestly if you worry yourself it will be so tough, ofcourse dont smoke - you should know this anyway Lol. If you can go for a walk atleast every two days that way it won't be majourly uncomfortable when you become huge :], i also found this link;- http://www.bygpub.com/natural/pregnancy.鈥?/a>
it tells you things you should and shouldn't avoid whilst pregnant :] the internet should have alot of information you need; plus talking to your mum will be alot of help - shes been through it [ofcourse!] Don't block anyone out, you need all the support you can get :]
Goodluck; i hope everything goes really well鈾?br>

As others said you will get lots of advice some of it great some of it bad.Look at it all with a grain of salt and remember that not everyone that claims to be a parent really is. Some are perv's claiming to be parenting so they can get off on how others discipline their children. Make sure your family knows its your child to raise as you see fit, but don't be afraid to ask for their help or advice.
I suggest taking a parenting class or a few parenting classes. Start with ones on baby care, its not easy. I was a mom at 19, and I wasn't as ready as I thought I was. Taking parenting classes was a big help. Remember that this is your first child your going to make mistakes, don't beat yourself up about them, learn from them and don't make them again.
You don't have to do things your parents way, but if you believe they were good parents then it is a good starting point to model yourself as a parent on.
There are plenty of free hot lines you can call if your ever stressed past your breaking point and you need to vent to someone. They offer these services free.
Most of all, stay strong and good luck.

Teens: I need advice.?
Ok so my mom is finally going with Verizon.
Im getting the enV and unlimited texting.
This phone and the texting is all I can think about, I can't get it off my mind.
Im getting my new phone right before spring break, which is March 13, a month away. Its absolutely killing me.
This would be a lot easier if my current phone wasn't broken, I have a razr and the screen won't open all the way or the screen will shut off and I have to turn my phone off and turn it back on. Texting and making phone calls are so hard now, especially the texting.
Any ideas on how to keep my mind off this till March?Teens: I need advice.?
You know what's so weird, one of my friends wants to switch to Verizon for the same reason. Her Cingular razor does the same exact thing! And I have the Envy in silver and I love it, it's definitely the best phone I've ever had! You're going to have loads of fun with that and I garentee you'll get mad at people when they call you, because you'd rather text lol, I know I do! Anyways I would make a calender and mark the days down! Have fun and enjoy your new phone!
=]Teens: I need advice.?
Hmm... concerntrate on the computer, send emails instead of texts for the next month. And, be thankful that you're going to get a new phone. Most people have to wait a long time before they're even allowed to get a new one.
Get a hobby. This takes hours of your time off. Like, I'm going to sould like such a geek when I say this, but, when I'm bored, I go on Yahoo! Answers, or just simply on the computer, surfing the net. Sometimes I'm on Y!A, and it's 10am, the next thing I know, it's 1.30pm (happened today.)
As soon as you know it, your wait will no longer be there, and you will have a new phone in your hand. Count down the days till you get your new phone. Good Luck!

paly some games, watch a movie, think about a girl u like, outdoor activities there r many things 2 do out there u just gotta know were 2 look. ask some friends 2 hang out and do stuff or if u prefer ask a girl out on a date.
Get a hobby, something you might have been interested in b4 but never got around to, or something new and random that you never would have thought of trying. If you find out you don't like it, try something else! Time will fly............
Be thankful you are getting a new phone. I kept my old one until I literally had to hold the pieces together to hear a call and that was after having it for a long time.

Teens to Australia, advice?
oke I'll be travelling to Aussie with my cousins this December-January, I head it'd be super hot, whats the temperature?So, I want to enter some sort of adventures camp, like (please click on the link below)
http://www.gobroadreach.com/programs/gl/鈥?/a>
but that one is scheduled on July so I cant.
I want to make friends with the people in Aussie, how to do this? Where are the places teens hang out to and please dont say malls, beaches, because most will probably be doing their own business, I mean I want to meet people while there, help please?
oh btw I;ll spend most of my time in Sydney, so I want to get into some adventure/summer camp and explore other areas. ;)
ThanksTeens to Australia, advice?
Great choice man, i live in Aussie, so i'll try to give you a non-biased point of view.
The temperature will be super hot. Your right. it'll be around 30 degrees Celsius, 90 degrees Fahrenheit, all summer. To meet people, you've actually named where you need to be. In Aus, our lifestyle revolves around the beach, and i can say from personal experience, that your gonna meet ALOT of people around the beach. You should also try the city, were i've met alot of people in Under 18 raves, Karakoe places, Internet Cafe's and the like. As Aussies, were very approachable people, so don't be shy to approach people.
You wanted somewhere to go on an Adventure Camp, so i'd recomend the Myuna Bay, Narrabean area's which are great places to spend a few nights, try out some new activities. Bondi Beach, have a ';Nippers'; Club which is easy to join, where kids learn to surf, and Life Save, always a good place to meet new people and friends.
Also, in Australia, we love our sport, and there's no sport better to make friends at, then at the Cricket. You may not like the sport, as i don't think anyone plays it over there, but watching the game is an incredibly social and enjoyable activity, while your chatting with some mates and discussing the sport with the fans around you. This is particicularly good with the Australia and South Africa and Australia and New Zealand series' coming up. And, you can buy tickets at the venue, generally, the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Cruises from Sydney to New Zealand are also great and include a great social club for the teens which i've made plenty of friends from.
Hope this helped, and hope you enjoyed Sydney, if you have any questions or queries, i'll be happy to help. Just give a shout.
Teens to Australia, advice?
the weather is really hot most the time
from around 25 degrees celcius at the coldest but i really cant remember if it gets that cold or not, and around 45 degrees celcius at the hottest so in america you would say like 80something to -

also it depends on what part of australia you go to, some states are hotter

Teens seeking adult advice?
Hi there, when I read this section over 90% of the questions seem to be asked by teens:
';I like this guy in my class but i'm too shy...';
';I like my best friend's boyfriend and i think he likes me back...';
';Do you think he likes me...';
I know a lot of teens say they want advice from adult, but do you realize many of us cannot relate to your problems? That many of us have grown out of the self-consious, detail picking habits that teenagers have when it comes to dating? I am not trying to be mean, but I would like anyone and everyone's thoughts; surely I can't be the only one who feels this way...
Teens seeking adult advice?
your not. Im at the point in my life where im looking back and realizing that most things said about teens in regards to maturity, sex, violence etc are mainly true. I thought i was so mature the whole time, but looking back now i made some stupid decisions. I know im not through being a teenager completely myself, but in retrospect, most things adults say about teens are true, even if it dosnt seem like it at that point in time.Teens seeking adult advice?
No, you're not the only one who feels this way. I get pretty fed up with it too. But I have to put myself in their position. I have to think back to when I was that age and how I would have felt in their position. I then use the information that I know now to form the best answers.
Teenagers need the acceptance and reassurance of others, especially adults.
Can you honestly not relate to teenagers anymore?
Can you not remember back to when you were that age?
I'm sure you can.
But for now, be patient. They'll grow out of this soon. :)
I am an adult and I enjoy giving counsel to teens and young adults. When I was a young teen, I had no one to offer advice to me or even be sympathetic towards my needs. My Mom was too busy and what little advice I got from her was useless. She even laughed at me and then clasped her hands over her mouth to stifle her laughter. That's when I said, ';never again.'; So, I sympathize with these young girls; sometimes I offer advice to the boys, but mostly, I identify with the girls.
The thing that disturbs me, is that often the girls who are asking advice, don't want to hear the truth, they refuse to take good counsel. And I could certainly take some lessons in tactfulness, myself. I usually get right to the point, unlike a pro. I'm sometimes a little abrupt and never politically correct. lol

When pregnant teens ask for advice on what to do, how come a whole lot of people give them a lecture instead?
I've seen plenty of questions asked by pregnant teens who are barely even in high school yet, asking desperately for help and advice. But instead most of the answers are insensitive people telling them off. I think that it is pretty obvious that they know what they did was wrong and that they feel bad enough already, don't you? This is Y!A not Y!L. Is anyone else kind of peeved off by this besides me? or am I just weird that way?
Avatar game :D
Say something nice about the person above you,
something mean about the person below you,
and something narcissistic about yourself :DWhen pregnant teens ask for advice on what to do, how come a whole lot of people give them a lecture instead?
they're annoying. so are these questions.
above: you made me laugh. Y!L.
below: i'm not going to say something mean about someone I don't know.
narcissistic ryan: i'm a fairly good artist.When pregnant teens ask for advice on what to do, how come a whole lot of people give them a lecture instead?
Sometimes ';advice'; comes within the form of lectures.
Above: I like your answers. They're funny.
Below:
Me: I have nothing narcissitcitc to say about myself.
it's so annoying. it's called GET A PREGNANCY TEST and ask MOM for help. NOT random people.
narcissitic: read my above statement ^^^
above: nice avatar!
below?
Haha. Y!L. That was a good one. And yeah, I think people just want to give their opinions and they use peoples pleas for help as an oppurtunity.
And I don't know these people well enough to judge them.
:P
well heres another point of view for you...youve been trying to conceive for 2 years and you come across a dumb 15 year old thats pregnant asking if she should abort it...in the TryingToConceive section. that annoys me...
People are entitled to their own opinion and often abuse it-it ticks me off as well. In my eyes, asking for advice means you already know what to do, but just need a second opinion to make sure. People need to be a little more receptive when people share personal info on yahoo answers and just think of what they would do in that kind of situation. They will learn the hard way on their own unfortunately and don't need others to keep reminding them of it.
Above: I do agree with their opinion to an extent.
Below: I won't care if the person below me does not agree with me.
Narcissistic: I love my West Indian features-really a turn on Lmao idk
i know what you mean i cant even read some answers cause i get that mad.
and um person above me your cool
berson bellow your weird
whats narcissitic?
People are often short tempered with people they don't know, im sure if their 15 year old cousin came to them asking for advice about being pregnant they would not give a big lecture and basically yell buy a pregnancy test. they would comfort them. i think in this section (teens/preteens) there are just so many people faking being pregnant, and its obvious, that when someone is genuinely concerned they just get told off because people see the questions so often. what people have to remember is that, this is the PREGNANCY and parenting section. whether they like it or not.
im a pregnant teen, and didn't get any lectures about it, but then i didn't come here asking what i should do, i made up my own mind that i was going to care for my child. i think that people are a lot more tolerant with people who seem to have a good head on their shoulders.
i know what you mean , thats why when i found out i was pregnant , i didn't bother asking for advise on here . people are too judge mental (especially teens)
I know what you mean.
I go through and try and find those questions and give the girls some advice.
Like okay, maybe they made a mistake but their scared and need help.
They dont need a lecture.
I'm sixteen and i just recently had a miscarriage. and i asked some questions on here too.
I just asked in the pregnancy section and didnt say my age cause then i got nasty comments about that.
But the people in the pregnancy section arent much better.
I like the TTC section for pregnancy questions cause they tend to be a lot nicer to you
(:
But yes it pisses me off too. I dont see why they have to be insensitive and mean.

Teens with asthma? Advice?
So, I'm pretty sure I have asthma...but I don't really know. I sometimes ger to the point where I can barely breath because my chest gets really tight and it feels kind of like I have liquid in my lungs. It's been happening since forever, but it seems worse. I got a non-prescription inhaler, and it helps quite a bit. But my mom said i'm being stupid and thinks I'm using the inhaler just because....
is it possible to develop asthma? Because I don't think I had it when I was little....but I'm almost positive I do now (I'm 16)Teens with asthma? Advice?
well, i've had asthma since i was little, and i believe you can develop asthma as you get older, i'm not completly sure though. but it kind of sounds like what i feel when i have an asthma attack. anyway, how long have you had these symptoms? you could be just sick and have mucus in your throat. but yeah, that's pretty much what it feels like, when your having an asthma attack your throat gets really tight and swollen, that's why it feels like you can't breathe because from the lungs being so swollen it's hard for the air to go in and out, below is a picture of normal lungs, and asthma lungs
http://cjcotton.files.wordpress.com/2009鈥?/a>
you see how the normal lungs are open and you have alot of room for air to go in and out, and on the asthma lungs, it's really swollen and there's no room for air to go in and out.
also, do you wheeze when you have these symptoms? the swelling of the lungs cause you to wheeze when you are having an asthma attack.
your mother should take you to a doctor because she should know if you have this, if you do have this she will have to get you a nebulizer, which is way better then the inhaler, you can use a mask with it, (it looks like an oxygen mask) or this other thing, i forgot what it's called, you basically put this special medicine in the nebulizer. i think it's called abuderall or something, and you breathe it in with the machine and it opens your lungs, so you can breathe better
edit: by any chance does these symptoms get worse when you have a cold or when you are sick? mine usually do. the way you described it, it sounds like these symptoms are only happening to you because you are around things you are allergic to, if anyone in your house smokes, see if they will quit and then you can see if these symptoms proceed. because you usually get the symptoms from alot of things, being sick, excersing , running, etc. i get them from these things, if you have it you may just have not have a serious case of asthmaTeens with asthma? Advice?
Hi, i have exercise induced asthma. and i have almost the same symptoms you have. you need to go to an allergist too, because you could have an allergic reaction to a bunch of things that set your respiratory system off. tell your mom that you're very serious because if i hadn't have had my rescue inhaler once i would've almost passed out for oxygen deprivation. good luck :)
Definately sounds like you do you should go into the doctor as soon as you can. If your mom cares about your health she will take you in you don't wanna end up having an attack and then not coming out of it cause of no inhaler. So she needs to take you in.
Sounds like it.
Yes, you can develop asthma, and if you think you have it I would suggest going to an Allergist...people who deal with allergies [obv. lolz] and asthma.
Good luck :]
Better go to your DOCTOR !!. He/she would gave you the best treatment.

Teens: I need advice?
My friend has been dating this guy for about 3 months, and before she started dating him we were really close. We texted each other all the time and we hung out a lot. But now she never has time for me, I know that makes me sound like I'm jealous, I'm not really, I just want my friend back. She says that if I had a boyfriend we could hang out more, but I don't want or need a boyfriend as I'm only 13.
Anyways, how do I talk to her about this without her thinking that I'm jealous?Teens: I need advice?
I've been here before. Sometimes, girls are lost in this ';fantasy'; of having a boyfriend that they forget their friends. The best thing will be to take her aside and explain that you are happy that she's happy but you don't need to boyfriend and that you feel pushed aside. Don't get angry, but remain calm when you are talking to her. Tell her you want to keep that strong relationship together but you don't want to interfere with her relationship either.Teens: I need advice?
I went through the same thing with my friend. We where both 16 and she we where way close but then she got a boyfriend and all we would talk about was him and she would also tell me I should get a boyfriend and all this stuff. But just wait it out it will be ok. Her boyfriend ended up breaking up with her and then she found out the day he broke up with her he went and got back together with his ex and then purposed to her. But don't worry you will get your friend back. It just takes time and that's the hard part.
I know i don't know you but your friend isn't treating you right. I mean dumoing her best friend for a guy and saying basically the only way y'all will hang out is if you get a boyfriend. You shouldn't have to have boyfriend to see your best friend. Just confront her!
Just say that you are happy she has a boyfriend and that she's happy but you feel like she's forgetting about you and you haven't spent a lot of time together and you want your friend back. Just talk to her =]
wow that is rude and ridiculous.
i am almost 19 and unforntuatly this happens a lot
after about a year without your friend you will see what she really wants. that is selfish of her.
what do you thik of my question? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090624215523AAXmSWI%26amp;r=w three pictures are included
well its never a bad thing to have a boyfriend at 13. although you def. dont need one. i totally understand you tho:] just tell her that you miss her and that she needs to chill out with him and make time for her friends.skin care

if you havent read Lemony Snicket's A series of Unfortunate Events then you HAVE to read them
Here are some of my favorite novels:
Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. It's about a girl named Bella who moves to Forks, Washington and runs into a group of vampires. VERY VERY good!
Pants On Fire by Meg Cabot. It's about a girl who basically has everything (popular best friend, good grades... and TWO boyfriends.) It's really funny because then her friend from eighth grade come back to town (everyone hates him) and she falls head over heals for him too.
Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares. It's about four girls who where born as friends. They go through ups and downs together.
All-American Girl and All-American Girl Ready Or Not by Meg Cabot. It's about an outcast girl who happens to save the presidents life. Suddenly everyone at school wants to be her friend, but she doesn't really care... What she does care about is the presidents son...
Clique books by Lisi Harrison. The popular crowd has to go through ups and dows to stay on top.
Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot. It's about a girl who goes over seas with her boyfriend after (almost!) finishing college. After a bad break up with him, she goes with her friend and runs into someone.... It's a very good adult book!
How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot. It's about a girl who comes across an old book in her grandma'a attic called how to be popular. So, she follows the rules of the book hoping to become popular.
Jinx by Meg Cabot. If you liked Twilight, then you'll like this book. It's about a girl who has bad luck all the time so she moves in with her aunt and uncle. He sister is into witchcraft and I don't want to spoil the rest, but it fairly good.
Teen Idol by Meg Cabot. This is about a girl who has an advice column in her school newspaper. So, when a famous actor comes to her school and she's the only one who knows about it, chaos occurs!
Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen is also pretty good. It's about two girls that are best friends who are having a few issues in the love department.
Just Listen by Sarah Dessen is one of my favorites! It's about a girl who had something terrible happen to her and she's learning how to cope with it and befriends an outcast boy.
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a very impacting book!!!! And one of my all time favorites!
Good luck with finding a book! I hope these help!

I'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
I'm a 16 year old i guess pretty much trying to date this 17 year old guy who is about to turn 18. To make a long story short. I have a guy that i REALLY like and he likes me to and we want to be together. Basically the only problems with this is one he lives about an 1hr to 2 hrs away from me so we do have distance issues but the biggest issue of all is my parents. My parents are basically not together and its tough talking to them, but i have a greater relationship with my dad (who is overseas right now) than my mother (who i am living with right now). My mom hates the idea of me dating, like its really bad to the point she dont like to see me hugging guys or a dude will come and try to talk to me just to get my name at random or even if it is me talking to a guy.She even sometimes listen to my phone conversations whenver i'm talking to a guy (reason for my dad buying me a cell phone anyways) Its terrible. I have not dating anyone sense and this was SUPPOSE to be the year i could start dating but obviously not. Anyway, my dad doesn't have a problem with me dating but my mom does. My dad knows that i like this guy that i want to be with but he's not here to help me convince my mom that i can start dating or going out with a guy, and on top of that they pretty much can't stand each other so their is no talking to each other and i live with my mom instead of my dad. So basically i'm stuck and i dont really want to sneak around but i'm really tempted to even though i've never did it before (i'm one of the good kids that get a bad conscience(sp?) if i do something bad or behind my parents back believe it or not)
SO the question that i have is...how can i talk to both my mom about letting me date guys in general because i don't want to hide it from her and if any advice, and also if anybody can give me advice on how to deal with long distance relationships if possible.
Thank YouI'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
parents can really make situations stressful. I think the best way to deal with this situation is to approach your mom in a very calm and mature way. Come across as an adult and say something like ';Mom, I know you don't really like the idea of me going out with other guys or me even being around them, and I understand that you may be scared or worried about what I may be doing but I'd rather have an open relationship with you that's supportive. I'm interested in boys and would really like to see one in particular a lot more. I feel that I'm responsible enough and smart enough to make the proper decisions and if I'm not, well it does take some experience to learn better ways of living. Can we make a compromise? I'll be honest/open with you if you can at least allow me to see guys?
Hope this helps and good luck!
long distance relationships can work but it takes two to make it work - only one to screw it up.
:)I'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
....... wait for it for some more time.
rape!
First for the long distance relationships, I really think they don't work. You both can get tempted into liking other people (which is normal) and you don't wan to end up hurting each other.
And for talking to you mom, just ask her flat out, why you can't date guys. And talk to her about when she said that you could date guys when your 16 like she agreed on. If she says your not responsible, or trustworthy, prove her wrong, or give her proof that you are responsible and trustworthy.
I really hope this works because this happened to me in the past, and I did this and gained my parents respect.
(:
I had the same problem, ages and everything only it was my dad not liking the idea . . .just tell her she has to understand that you are growing up and it is perfectly normal for you to start dating at this age. And tell her that he makes you happy : )

oh yea to add on i have approached my mother a couple times about dating and the only response i basically get from her is ';i'm not ready for you to date just yet'; but i'm mean i'm almost graduating from high school in one year and its a definite i'm going to start regardless after i graduate. Just an add-on. I have tried to talk to her.
I'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
As a parent, i must say, the worst example a parent can set is to take back their word, for the simple reason that they do not have that right, nor can they expect their children to trust them, or not follow that lead, when they don't wish to do things.
If she had no intention of keeping her word, then she should never have given it, she should have given you the old, ';we'll see';, we'll deal with that when the time comes';, anything but make a liar out of herself.
Catch your mother when she has time. Ask her what ';she'; needs to be ready for, tell her she's been aware this was coming for 16 yrs, she has had all that time in the world to ';get ready';, it's not as though she didn't know the route you'd be taking.
Ask her if she trusts you, if you don't follow the rules and curfews, tell her you could have snuck around behind her back, but would prefer to be open and honest with her. That you would never do anything to let her down, intentionally. I mean, do it nicely, but get through to her that ';she'; is the adult setting the example. And when you become of age, may you give her your word, then take it back because you don't feel like keeping it, ask if that might bother her, after all she is setting the example of how an adult acts.
I my dear, am a mother and there is nothing to get ready for, you are quite ready to date, she really doesn't have a great deal to worry about, sure a mother will always worry, but it is really too bad, she hasn't read the bit you wrote about not sneaking around.
It is really above and beyond me, why parents can't see their kids for what they are. If they can't trust, have issues or accept their kids dating, then they obviously have no faith in their parenting skills.
From what i pick up, you sound like your mature enough to start dating. Tell her she has to learn to let go sometime, why not start now.

I had the same problem your father is being nice cause thats how they are. Your mother is saying that probably she fears you might get pragerz,raped, whatever that's in the sex topic.Your mom and yu should sit down and talk then approach her on this not aggressive but calmly but then ask her about when she started dating and explain to her about how things changed when she was younger and tell her your 16 or 17 and say i know whats right and wrong i can make own decsions. Long distance relationships never ever ever work date another guy it gets too messy
I am a mom but my daughter is now 25, I am glad to here you did not sneak. Keep a healthy relationship with your mom as well believe me later on you will need and want her in your life.
Is it possible you can be friends with this guy and talk and text one another since you will be graduating soon-start there with mom?
Write what you feel in a letter to your mom this way she has to read it first without giving you an immediate answer-talk about your responsibilities as a young adult, protecting yourself, demanding a guy respect you-if don't plan on having sex say that!
We moms want to know that our daughters are safe and smart when it comes to guys.
What is the guys intentions-what does he want from you-everyone has an agenda?
THINK BEFORE YOU LEAP!
I have parents like that. I'm sure for them it's really hard to see you grow up and they know that once you start doing these ';adult'; things then they feel like their loosing their little girl. As well there is always the ';pregnancy'; issue, and for girls it's always hard to date at such a young age because no parents wants their daughter getting pregnant at 16. But this is what I always tell my mom. She has to face that I'm growing up and I need a little more freedom I'm not asking to move out of the house just yet, I don't drink, I don't smoke, school is very important to me, over all a good kid. So in a way I think that if you think your responsible enough to make wise decision while your dating then she shouldn't have a problem. But then again you could have very strict parents. So just make sure to tell them how responsible you are, and that you know your rights from wrongs. Tell them you will not make stupid mistakes. And overall let them know that you wanted to know that they were OK with you dating, and tell them you thought that it was wrong if you hid it from them so you should be given the right to date. Try not to stress about it if they don't let you, just remember your going to be a parent one day and you will understand them then, when your kids are asking you for permission to date.
SO the question that i have is...how can i talk to both my mom about letting me date guys in general because i don't want to hide it from her and if any advice, and also if anybody can give me advice on how to deal with long distance relationships if possible.
oh yea to add on i have approached my mother a couple times about dating and the only response i basically get from her is ';i'm not ready for you to date just yet'; but i'm mean i'm almost graduating from high school in one year and its a definite i'm going to start regardless after i graduate. Just an add-on. I have tried to talk to her.
I'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
As a parent, i must say, the worst example a parent can set is to take back their word, for the simple reason that they do not have that right, nor can they expect their children to trust them, or not follow that lead, when they don't wish to do things.
If she had no intention of keeping her word, then she should never have given it, she should have given you the old, ';we'll see';, we'll deal with that when the time comes';, anything but make a liar out of herself.
Catch your mother when she has time. Ask her what ';she'; needs to be ready for, tell her she's been aware this was coming for 16 yrs, she has had all that time in the world to ';get ready';, it's not as though she didn't know the route you'd be taking.
Ask her if she trusts you, if you don't follow the rules and curfews, tell her you could have snuck around behind her back, but would prefer to be open and honest with her. That you would never do anything to let her down, intentionally. I mean, do it nicely, but get through to her that ';she'; is the adult setting the example. And when you become of age, may you give her your word, then take it back because you don't feel like keeping it, ask if that might bother her, after all she is setting the example of how an adult acts.
I my dear, am a mother and there is nothing to get ready for, you are quite ready to date, she really doesn't have a great deal to worry about, sure a mother will always worry, but it is really too bad, she hasn't read the bit you wrote about not sneaking around.
It is really above and beyond me, why parents can't see their kids for what they are. If they can't trust, have issues or accept their kids dating, then they obviously have no faith in their parenting skills.
From what i pick up, you sound like your mature enough to start dating. Tell her she has to learn to let go sometime, why not start now.
I'm 16 having problems with my parents relating to dating guys. Need advice from Teens and Adults Alike! Plz!?
I had the same problem your father is being nice cause thats how they are. Your mother is saying that probably she fears you might get pragerz,raped, whatever that's in the sex topic.Your mom and yu should sit down and talk then approach her on this not aggressive but calmly but then ask her about when she started dating and explain to her about how things changed when she was younger and tell her your 16 or 17 and say i know whats right and wrong i can make own decsions. Long distance relationships never ever ever work date another guy it gets too messy
I am a mom but my daughter is now 25, I am glad to here you did not sneak. Keep a healthy relationship with your mom as well believe me later on you will need and want her in your life.
Is it possible you can be friends with this guy and talk and text one another since you will be graduating soon-start there with mom?
Write what you feel in a letter to your mom this way she has to read it first without giving you an immediate answer-talk about your responsibilities as a young adult, protecting yourself, demanding a guy respect you-if don't plan on having sex say that!
We moms want to know that our daughters are safe and smart when it comes to guys.
What is the guys intentions-what does he want from you-everyone has an agenda?

Advice about adopting children, teens and siblings?
i dont want a baby i want siblings teens or children not twins any adviceAdvice about adopting children, teens and siblings?
My advice is to Foster the children first. It is easier to get the children in your home, plus you can make sure everyone is going to get along. I was a foster mom, and once we almost adopted a girl, but instead we fostered her, she ended up having some issues that were dangerous to my other children. Good Luck,
CathyAdvice about adopting children, teens and siblings?
I am in the process of adopting a sibling set of teens. They are 15 %26amp; 16. We started out in foster care and that is where you get allot of teens because everyone wants to adopt babies or younger children no one ever thinks about the older kids that want and deserve a good home too. So maybe you could check out foster care in the state the you live in. I am from Tennessee and we have numerous agencies to go through. Don't believe everything you hear about kids in foster care they are not all bad like people say they are. You can contact me if you would like to talk more about this.
If you're looking to adopt teens or even school aged children, your way will likely be much shorter!
Contact your state's child welfare office (go to http://www.childwelfare.gov/pubs/reslist鈥?/a> to find your state's contact info) and go through the training and the background checks.
Good for you! We adopted two girls internationally %26amp; I'm thinking the next child we add to our family will be an adoption through foster care.
Having worked in that system for 15 years my only advise to you would be to make sure you get ALL the information about ALL the kids. Past, present. Pay specific attention to emotional, physical and sexual abuse that they may have suffered from and MAKE SURE the worker is working in the best interest of the children!!!
www.Adoptuskids.com great site for you
You can adopt from thousands of waiting kids in the US. Many are older (6+) And many sibling sets. Check out the link below. Good luck to you!
I agree, it's a terrible misconception that all foster kids are horrible! That being said, or course, many of the kids will have issues. But the main thing to consider is whether you have younger children or not. While as an adult, you will have more capacity to understand what these kids are going through, younger children will not.
Just try googling foster care in your area and you will find some places to talk to. A good counselor will have a lot more information for you about how things are done in your state and city!

Advice for a teen girl for getting a fit and strong body, with a little fat and more muscles?
To become more stronger, to have a toner body, to be strong, and anything will help me thanks!Advice for a teen girl for getting a fit and strong body, with a little fat and more muscles?
I'm glad you asked about that. Here's a surefire way:
Change your lifestyle and do this forever. Drink lots of water, walk an hour every day except 1 then do stretching and upper body toning. Eat fruits %26amp; vegetables.
No sugar
No sodas
No candy
No chips
No potatoes
No pasta
No pizza
no corn
no bread
no burgers
no fried foods
Good LuckAdvice for a teen girl for getting a fit and strong body, with a little fat and more muscles?
Weight training, light weights with say 15 reps x 3 will give you muscle tone without giving you big muscles (it's very rare for a girl to develop Madonna-type muscles anyway). Do cardio, running, swimming or stepper etc to ensure good heart and lung function. Keep it up, don't get obsessed and make sure you eat healthy food (lean protein, lots of fruit and veg) and a little carbohydrate
I'm not a teen, but am thinking about this question for myself too. I already have a routine of walking every day and I feel good about that, but I think I've gotten in the habit of snacking a little too 'freely'. I've decided that, when I have a choice, I'll choose the less fatty items. Good luck.

Remember to wear jeans that are loose at the legs but form fitting at the butt. Don't be tempted to wear them too tight. Wear cute tops with jeans. Also, if you ever feel your butt is TOO big in an outfit, wear heels. Don't just blend in with a normal tee shirt when you can be foxy in a hot halter!

Teens: need your advice..?
well im in the drama club at my skool and i was nominated to design t-shirts for the club, only i have no idea what to put
i want to include: the happy face and the sad face that represents drama
and a cute/funny/smart quote
any ideas?Teens: need your advice..?
hm, i would put something like
';dramatic much?'; ';not dramatic enough for us!'; and then but a happy/sad face, hahaha.
or a cute quote like ';save an egg, crack a smile and do a play'; =DTeens: need your advice..?
That seems to be the only logo anyone can think of.
I was an officer of the drama club in high school my senior year. We had the same problem
If you wanted to use a quote, you could use the shakespeare one that everyone else uses- ';all the world's a stage/ and all the men and women merely players';
Orr maybe something less overdone. I couldn't find anything good, but If I do, I'll edit
you should put a picture of a DMC delorian (time machine) and then in white writing ';where we are going, we dont need roads...';
That would rule heaps. You could also put happy and sad faces coming out of the exhaust.
that's great common logo you should have unique quote like this ';Everybody don't like it slow
Consider me one of them folk
And let's do it!do it!'; lol,enjoy

Where can I get free online legal advice for teens in difficult family situations?
My friend lives with her mother and step-father. She does all of the cooking, cleaning, and work around the house. She has to buy her clothes and food for herself out of money she gets from babysitting. They will not allow her to get a real job until she gets her license, but they also expect her to pay for her license. She cannot get the money for the license unless she gets a job, so this presents a problem. Also, she goes to BOCES, a program which focuses on teaching specific trades to students who are not necessarily going to college. However, she wants to go to college to become a chef. Her family tells her that she will amount to nothing, and that she will never get into college. They want her to stay home and do the work at the house, without pursuing a career. I want to know where to find free legal advice on what she can do to help herself, like emancipation, or social services.Where can I get free online legal advice for teens in difficult family situations?

What is your advice for an aspiring teen author?
I am 13 years old, and it is my dream to become a writer. I have decided to try to write my first novel, and while I know that it may not be a success, I still want to try. I was just wondering if you have any advice or knew any agents that have been known to accept teen authors. Please I already know that my chances of getting published are one in a billion so if you don't have any good advice or useful information, don't post.What is your advice for an aspiring teen author?
13 is a good age to start writing, it's a skill that has to be honed, and unlike riding a bike, will deteriorate with lack of use. The chances of getting published aren't that bad. The better your work is the better your chances of getting published are. If your writing is very bad, your chance may be one in a billion. On the other hand, outstanding work will be recognized and has a very good chance. Almost 100% if the author is persistent. Judging by the construction of your question I think it's fair to say you have the basics of writing pretty well in hand. That being said, the novel is not the place to start your writing career. Novels are major undertakings and are a painful way to learn the trade. I'm not saying don't write it, I'm just saying don't put all your effort into it. Try your hand at short-stories first (less then 10,000 words). Write each one as a study in specific areas of writing (Dialogue, description, character development, point-of-view, etc). It's easy to get lost in a novel, the ';canvas'; is enormous and you're free to wander around, sometimes too much. The short-story is more point-a to point-b, and will teach you discipline. Plus, if you finish a short-story and say to yourself: ';Wow, this sucks!'; It's not a big deal since you don't have much invested in it. It's also a shortcut to being published, there are magazines that pay for short works. The pay isn't much, but there is pride in saying ';I'm a published author';.

Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
So a month ago I thought I might be pregnant
With my boyfriend of almost 2 years and 2 months(now fiances) child
And after testing for two weeks I decided to tell my mom
Even though all tests were false.
I had hoped my mom would be understanding and help me
Deal with all of the problems.
I was totally WRONG, she made me:
-Break up with my fiance(which she doesn't know about engagement)
-No phone
-No Driving
-No going out
-No talking to him period
Well two weeks later I was allowed to drive again without a phone to school and back
The next week I was given my phone for driving only
Well my step dad never made me give it back after school
So I always just put it in the kitchen to charge at night
Well a few nights later I had to stay with my grandparents
So I could take them somewhere early that next morning
Before school so that night him and i talked until 3 am
The most we've talked in a month.
So today I get invited to go bowling with my friends
And when I get home my step dad says give me your
Phone and here's this. A list of all my received and
Sent text messages. My mom was mad that I was talking
To him at 3 am. So I got my phone taken away again by her
My fiance is the best man in the world he does anything and everything for me without even thinking twice and even through all this he is still faithfully standing by my side.
My question is what do I do with my parents..
I want my mom to just unground me..
I've learned my lesson and just want to
Show her that I have %26amp; I dont want to hide
my fiance...
HELP!!!!!!!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
Look girl...I got pregnant at 16 and a couple months after that [before i started to show] i got married. You have your whole life ahead of you, trust me! Listen to me I walked down that path and it isn't pretty. I love my now 14 month old daughter and my husband of 2 years but If I could put my daughter and marriage on hold when I was 16 and waited until I was mature enough to actually want a baby and be able to care for it emotionally and financially with my husband...I would have done it. Look..you think that it's all over...that your parents are pissed and that this will never pass..honey you are wrong. You got a SECOND CHANCE TO DO THINGS RIGHT! TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
Your answer was excellent. I am now 38, been there done that. You summed it all up exquisitely.
wow why are you engaged at 16 and why are you having unprotected sex to get pregnant, if you are going to do it then get some protection. I would do the same thing with my 16 yr old daughter.
You're way too young to be getting engaged and having babies. Your mom's reaction was in order given your age. Until you're 18 you need to follow your parents rules. Focus on school before you start thinking about marriage.
Yeah, this sounds about right.
You're too young to be engaged and too young to be having unprotected sex. Are you trying to get pregnant?
how old are you?
(edit)
Sorry your parents are right your way to young the best thing you can do...is sit down and talk NOT ARGUE about the issue
fiance? at 16......
honey im going to say something thats probably going to hurt your feelings...it wont last.
by the time you can legally get married without consent you both will be so different. there is a huge difference between 16 and18. you will want somebody else and so will he.
dont get tied down so young, its a HUGE mistake.
and DO NOT GET PREGNANT...thats an even bigger mistake. your 16 and you have a whole life time ahead of you to find a man and have babies. yeah i know there cute and they always love you but they are a hell of alot of work. when you get tired of it you cant put it away and come back when your interested again.
stop having sex, finish school, got to college and then worry about babies and husbands.
Your mom should ground you more. You obviously can't be trusted to make good decisions for yourself. There's no way you should be engaged, and having sex (especially unprotected) at 16. This wonderful ';man'; you're seeing is no kind of man. A man waits until his girlfriend is old enough before getting engaged. He wants the best for her, like getting an education, not getting knocked up at 16, and not sneaking around behind her parent's backs. You haven't learned any lesson at all.
It's probably hard for her to know that you're having sex, but she needs to accept it and start talking to you about what's going on in your personal life. Yes, you're having sex, but atleast you're not going around, sleeping with random men; you've been with this guy for quite some time. When I was 15, my mother found out I was dating an older guy and forbade me to see him, also grounded me and I lost phone privelages, but I just rebelled and they eventually gave up. Next month is our 5-year anniversary and we just had a baby almost 3 months ago. Your mom doesn't know what's going on and that's what she's afraid of, but she needs to talk to you. Just flat out tell her that you're disapointed in her for not being enough of a mother to talk to her daughter. Good luck and I hope things get better!
i am a mother of a 16 yo daughter and i would do the same as your parents. if this guy is worth it you will wait and better still he will wait for you. focus on your studies and your future and especially the future of any kids you are trying to bring into this world. besides they deserve better. get an education and some money behind you so your parents dont end up being the ones supporting you and your kids when you ';fiance'; leaves you
I commend you for telling your mom. And you say you hoped your mom will help you - I think she did, I just don't think you realize it. You are TOO YOUNG to be engaged. Also, if you're going to have sex - please make sure you have birth control!
I think your mom is doing the best she can for you. She doesn't want you to have a hard life, having a baby at 16, and has the good sense to know that your relationship with your BF is probably not for the best if you already suspected a pregnancy. I think when you are older you will realize this.
And your mom is not going to ';just unground'; you if you keep sneaking behind her back, texting - she can't trust you right now.
How old are you? How old is he? It sounds to me like he could be an adult messing with a minor child, which is statutory rape. If you're not a minor, but there is a large age gap, you need to be very cautious. Some men prefer it that way because it gives them all the control in the relationship, which can be dangerous for you.
The only way to be trusted again is to show them you're trustworthy! If it's true love, you can wait. It will last.
If your parents don't approve of him, you should look very carefully at the relationship, first to make sure that they're not seeing something you're missing (they do have more experience with life than you do), and second, to make sure that you truly love him and are not using him to defy your parents.
Sex doesn't make you an adult.
With my boyfriend of almost 2 years and 2 months(now fiances) child
And after testing for two weeks I decided to tell my mom
Even though all tests were false.
I had hoped my mom would be understanding and help me
Deal with all of the problems.
I was totally WRONG, she made me:
-Break up with my fiance(which she doesn't know about engagement)
-No phone
-No Driving
-No going out
-No talking to him period
Well two weeks later I was allowed to drive again without a phone to school and back
The next week I was given my phone for driving only
Well my step dad never made me give it back after school
So I always just put it in the kitchen to charge at night
Well a few nights later I had to stay with my grandparents
So I could take them somewhere early that next morning
Before school so that night him and i talked until 3 am
The most we've talked in a month.
So today I get invited to go bowling with my friends
And when I get home my step dad says give me your
Phone and here's this. A list of all my received and
Sent text messages. My mom was mad that I was talking
To him at 3 am. So I got my phone taken away again by her
My fiance is the best man in the world he does anything and everything for me without even thinking twice and even through all this he is still faithfully standing by my side.
My question is what do I do with my parents..
I want my mom to just unground me..
I've learned my lesson and just want to
Show her that I have %26amp; I dont want to hide
my fiance...
HELP!!!!!!!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
Look girl...I got pregnant at 16 and a couple months after that [before i started to show] i got married. You have your whole life ahead of you, trust me! Listen to me I walked down that path and it isn't pretty. I love my now 14 month old daughter and my husband of 2 years but If I could put my daughter and marriage on hold when I was 16 and waited until I was mature enough to actually want a baby and be able to care for it emotionally and financially with my husband...I would have done it. Look..you think that it's all over...that your parents are pissed and that this will never pass..honey you are wrong. You got a SECOND CHANCE TO DO THINGS RIGHT! TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
Your answer was excellent. I am now 38, been there done that. You summed it all up exquisitely.
Report Abuse
wow why are you engaged at 16 and why are you having unprotected sex to get pregnant, if you are going to do it then get some protection. I would do the same thing with my 16 yr old daughter.
You're way too young to be getting engaged and having babies. Your mom's reaction was in order given your age. Until you're 18 you need to follow your parents rules. Focus on school before you start thinking about marriage.
Yeah, this sounds about right.
You're too young to be engaged and too young to be having unprotected sex. Are you trying to get pregnant?
how old are you?
(edit)
Sorry your parents are right your way to young the best thing you can do...is sit down and talk NOT ARGUE about the issue
fiance? at 16......
honey im going to say something thats probably going to hurt your feelings...it wont last.
by the time you can legally get married without consent you both will be so different. there is a huge difference between 16 and18. you will want somebody else and so will he.

HELP!!!!!!!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
If you still get live with your parents and get grounded, you aren't responsible enough to be engaged...Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
Why did you take so many pregnancy tests if you weren't going to believe the answer?
I can understand worrying about a false negative the first time, but after multiple tests saying no, that probably means you aren't pregnant.
So why the heck did you tell your mom?
haahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahh鈥?br>
do you even have a ring? hahahahahahahah good luck LITTLE GIRL!!!
that's a little too yound to be engaged. I'm 17 and i LOVED my ex-boyfriend when i was 14 for weird reasons we ended up breaking up. we are still really immature at our age and i think you need to wait until later on in life at least 19 to get engaged and truly see why you are marrying that guy.
just tell her.
are you pregnant?
If I were your mother I would lock you in the house till you were 30. Does that answer your question? I know times have changed since I was young in the dark ages, but still you should not be having sex. AND even if your mother is OK with that, the reason she is upset with the boyfriend is that even if you were not responsible to use birth control, he should have been. If he truly respects you he would wait. I don't care how 'nice' he seems, he still almost got you PG. You are both kids. Tell your mom to write me and I will give her the name of a good locksmith. ;-)
If you want to show that you are responsible. Stay home. Study. Get all 4 points and keep your legs together! Your mother is just trying to protect you from yourself. Listen to her. When you are 30 (and the door is unlocked), you will be glad that she cared enough to keep you from ruining your life.
I can tell that the other answers that tell you to do what you want are from other teenagers. I am old enough to be your grandmother, so listen to me.
well since you're already carrying his baby, you might as well get married with him. but dont get married just because of the baby. get married because you love each other. (btw, how old are you?) %26amp;besides, if you're young, you're immature, you'll make mistakes, but your mother has to learn to accept that and support you through hardships like these. love prevails over everything. %26amp;your mom can't tell you who you love or whatever. so just follow your heart. if you wanna text him @ 3 am, text him @ 3am
Well I was your age at one point. How old are you by the way??? Anywho, I think YOU need to woman up and face your parent's. If you truly love him Hence ';Fiance'; then think things through. If your parents don't accept your decision they might throw you out. Do you have a place to stay while things cool down. Eventually she'll realize that if your serious she will have to except it.
Put her in a bag and chuck her in a river.
Run away with him and have kids.
Shoot your Dad for being annoying.
Get on with your life.
Hahaha. Its a joke. Do what you want, you are old enough now. Divorce your parents and ingore them. Forget about ti and move on.
Maybe consider throwing her in a river though..JOKING! lol cya hope i helped
Sorry your mom isn't understanding. But maybe this is because she doesn't want you to ruin your life. Tell her that you are happy with this.
Wait, this isn't teen pregnancy is this? And make sure that you're not rushing into marriage.
Maybe if you are a young teen, I can understand your mother is a little upset, but she should support you.
If after you tell her you are cool and happy with your life right now and she doesn't understand, I'm real sorry. At least your fiance will understand.
So you're not pregnant? I'm confused. . . either way, good luck with it all.
Wait, 16! Wait to get married! You're so young!!! Wait until you meet the right guy. And if you like this guy, then stay with him for a while. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T RUSH MARRIAGE!!!!!!!!
This is hard to answer b/c I can see that your young but I don't know how old you are. First of all she is going to think that you are too young for all of this, but the fact that you told her about everything should show her something good. Maybe you need to sit down w/ur parents and talk to them. They sound really over protective. And if they are that is only going to push you away more. Maybe work out a deal where you talk to them more. Then if they will agree to it, have them sit down w/you guys and you can tell her your plans for the future. If you are close to 18 tho....I would still tell them how you feel and what not and deal w/their **** for now...then when you turn 18...you can move out and do whatever you want.
Ok, now that I see your age, you need to work something out with them. You can't go behind their backs for two more years. That will only get you in more trouble. Start trying to prove to them that you are old enough and mature enough to have this relationship. It may be b/c your young that you think the two of you will end up together forever, but it may also be true. Make sure she knows how happy he makes you and all that. No parent wants to hear that at that point, but no one can control love. Good Luck!!!

Picking a appropriate college, advice to teens?
So in response to my own rant about how ridiculously hard and time consuming University of Texas is, I have a survey question to pose for you.
When I was a young high school student I dreamed of ivy league schools, aimed for the best, shot high, and now I am honestly questioning whether I'm going to cut it here.
My question is, what type of personality do you think should go to which kind of school? What real advice would you give young aspiring teens when they are choosing their college?
I'll start by saying I think you should seriously think about how hard your willing to work, and be realistic about which school you choose. A slacker going to Harvard is probably going to end up with zero degree while a slacker at a community college will end up with a degree.Picking a appropriate college, advice to teens?
I think teens who like to learn should go to college. Whether they like to learn music, figure out the mechanics of a car or predict chemical reactions, that means they enjoying learning about a particular subject. But they should go to school for themselves, not because their parents are making them. College is a new start; slackers have the chance to change their behavior. I did.
When it comes to picking a college, students should know their own strengths and weakness and pick a school based on those. I often need help in my subjects, so a cutthroat school where the other students would intentionally sabotage me so that they can get a good grade is NOT the environment for me. On the other hand, I can be a bit of a slacker, so I needed a school/honors program that would push me to excel but be understanding if I faltered a little bit. I also wanted a school that didn't have a big party scene because that would not be conducive to my goals. I managed to find a school that has all of those things.

Do you have any advice for teens going through tough times?
In my life right now it's just hard. I used to know who I was, where I was, what I wanted to be. I loved reading, I was often found with a novel in hand. I wrote in my notebooks about animals. I frequently drew dogs and other animals, or mythical creatures like dragons. I loved going outside: biking, walking, swimming, tobogganing. I knew that I wanted to be a veterinarian. I was always top of the class in every subject.
Now I don't know. I still adore reading, but I only do in the little spare time I have on the bus or before bed. I still draw, but I only draw characters from the novels that I am writing. I still write, but I can never finish anything... and all of my novels have the aspect of love in them. It's troubling for me. I rarely can be found outside: I spend all day on chat boxes or writing on the computer. I've even started not caring about my homework. I also have a crush, but it's... like, I love him, then I hate him, a cycle over and over...
Please help me. Do you have any advice to help me get over this difficult time?Do you have any advice for teens going through tough times?
I am 14. I am a Christian. I ain't gonna shove nothin' down yer throat or nothing. God has always been what has gotten me through. I used to be suicidal and take pills and things like that.
Thiers an old country folk song that goes ';Keep on the sunnyside, always on the sunnyside, on the sunnyside of life. It will help us everyday, it will brighten us all the way. If we keep on the sunnyside of life.';Do you have any advice for teens going through tough times?
go outside! it doesnt have to be sports if thats not ur things. do what you do inside, outside! if you like writing and reading, then grab a book and a paper/pencil, and go to that outside. bring a friend to go with to, like to the park.
hope this helps! =)
i'm a teen also and i now what you are going with.
It is ok it will get better as time goes on.
but just start doing everything you where doing before and make some friends and play a new sport and start wearing Hollister!
it's called puberty...
you'll get used to it(:
GOOD LUCK:)
find out what u REALLY want...if u still want to be a vet i suggest u focus on tht...the crush thing....let him kno...if he doesnt feel the same move on
well dont stop beingyour self just do what you use too

go outside! it doesnt have to be sports if thats not ur things. do what you do inside, outside! if you like writing and reading, then grab a book and a paper/pencil, and go to that outside. bring a friend to go with to, like to the park.
hope this helps! =)
i'm a teen also and i now what you are going with.
It is ok it will get better as time goes on.
but just start doing everything you where doing before and make some friends and play a new sport and start wearing Hollister!
it's called puberty...
you'll get used to it(:
GOOD LUCK:)
find out what u REALLY want...if u still want to be a vet i suggest u focus on tht...the crush thing....let him kno...if he doesnt feel the same move on
well dont stop beingyour self just do what you use too
Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
So a month ago I thought I might be pregnant
With my boyfriend of almost 2 years and 2 months(now fiances) child
And after testing for two weeks I decided to tell my mom
Even though all tests were false.
I had hoped my mom would be understanding and help me
Deal with all of the problems.
I was totally WRONG, she made me:
-Break up with my fiance(which she doesn't know about engagement)
-No phone
-No Driving
-No going out
-No talking to him period
Well two weeks later I was allowed to drive again without a phone to school and back
The next week I was given my phone for driving only
Well my step dad never made me give it back after school
So I always just put it in the kitchen to charge at night
Well a few nights later I had to stay with my grandparents
So I could take them somewhere early that next morning
Before school so that night him and i talked until 3 am
The most we've talked in a month.
So today I get invited to go bowling with my friends
And when I get home my step dad says give me your
Phone and here's this. A list of all my received and
Sent text messages. My mom was mad that I was talking
To him at 3 am. So I got my phone taken away again by her
My fiance is the best man in the world he does anything and everything for me without even thinking twice and even through all this he is still faithfully standing by my side.
My question is what do I do with my parents..
I want my mom to just unground me..
I've learned my lesson and just want to
Show her that I have %26amp; I dont want to hide
my fiance...
HELP!!!!!!!Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
I'm not sure how old you are but you need to have a serious talk with your parents. Let them know that you've realized your mistake, and you are willing to be an adult about everything that has gone on. You need to re-assure them that you are going to be more responsible and careful. You need to also involve your fiance within this conversation as well that way the four of you are there to talk things out. Sooner or later your parents are going to have to realize that they can't shelter you forever.Need Honest Preferably Adult Advice But Teens are OK lol?
guys lie, guys come and they go, they want what they want and when they get it they leave, if something on the other side of the fence all of a sudden looks better than what they have, they are gonna jump right over it. guys will use you, disrespect you, and abuse you. parents on the other hand love you, go to work to provide for you, buy you clothes, food, cell phones, cars???? what, I wish my parents did, but anyway they love you and always will no matter what you do or what you will become they will always love you and want the best for you. Your mom has been married more than once so she knows exactly whats up when it comes to relationships. You don't understand it know but you will appreciate them for it later. Listen to your parents, your boyfriend knows whats up, he knows you want to be with him but your parents are preventing you from doing so. Lay off for a while and see just how faithful he really is.
You shouldnt have gotten knocked up!!!
apparently you are under 18. i can see what she is tryin to do but you are not smart as usual. she is trying to get you to see something but you are not taking it. the thing is why hurry and grow up? i mean why is that? the thing is if you grow up too fast it will be horrible. I mean what would have happened if you were pg and the man wouldn't want to be with you? i mean it would be hard. maybe he does care i am not sure is he ready to support you and does he have a job? i bet not what will you do/? that is the questions for you. how is he going to support you with no job and the baby needs food and clothes it is not fun to start out with hard time. shes trying to show you but you are not thinking all you are thinking about having good time and when the baby is here there is no good tiem i assure you but oh well keep it up you will have your way eventually and then stuck i am sure.
she's not going to unground you because she had proof (the phone bill) you didn't get the punishment she said you had to have.
sometimes you just have to suck it up and take the punishment.
You'll be 18 in 24 months or less and you'll be able to move out and live your life as you choose.
has your fiance made an effort to come by and talk to your parents? That could go a long way to them looking at him in a more positive light. Right now to them he's the ';irresponsible scum bag who almost knocked up their baby and ruined her future.';
It's hard to answer this question until we know how old you are. If you're under 17, your parents are scared and upset because you're having sex, and thought you were pregnant. They are trying to protect you. Wait until they are calm, then try talking to them again and tell them how you feel about your fiance. Have a mature conversation, without arguing with them if possible. Maybe in time you can change their minds. Hope this helps....
what the heck!!!??? If you think ur old enough to get married then move out and live with your fiance while dust settles after the wedding and the baby then go talk to your mom and tell her to take a chill pill cause your a grown woman and can make desisions on your own! by the way how old are you?
If you're young enough to get grounded, get your driving privileges and cell phone taken away, you're too young to be engaged. You don't do anything with your parents. You're in HIGH SCHOOL. They put the roof over your head and pay your bills, you follow their rules-end of story.
Go to school, enjoy your friends, live life. You're only young once. Don't be in a rush to grow up and get married. Sometimes I wish I was young and lived with my parents. My life would be a lot easier.
Rule are made for a reason. Your broke them and so you have to pay the consequences. Trust is one of the things you broke because what you do, you do behind their back and now your telling us that you are engaged and they don;t know that either. Everything your doing is secret. That is the problem with your parents that your not seeing. They resent the fact that you are not up fount with them and that they have to learn these things, %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;after the fact%26lt;%26lt;%26lt;! When you start being an adult and stop putting them last in everything, they will treat you better. They will never be what you would like them to be because your excluding them in every decision you make. Your not showing responsibility for the things they give you so you end up losing them. Learn to include them and they will learn to trust you. Until then, nothing will evr change.
That's sad. I'm sorry you are going through that. Are you parents really strict? Anyway, I think you are just going to have to let them cool down for now. In the meantime, figure out if there is any way that you can move out. It sounds like they are infringing on your privacy. I think you need to be able to be who you are and not talking to your bf who you obviously care for and who sounds like an amazing guy (ie he didn't RUN for his life when you told him you were pregnant) just does not sound like you darlin..
Maybe you should move out on you own. It will change your whole life. Good luck.
I'll be 18 next month; but hope I can help. Well, first off, are you a responsible kid? If so, you could probably convince your parents that the best thing to do is to let you be with him if you WERE pregnant, but since you aren't, maybe they're being pretty reasonable...I mean you were obviously having sex with the guy....and I'd be pretty upset if my 16 year old daughter was doing a guy.
But I'm not here to lecture you, I'm sure you get enough of that. I'm sure you've heard all your life that life isn't fair. And it ain't. But here's what you gotta do: Actually TALK to your mom. Don't complain. Just be like hey mom, can we talk? And bring up the fact that you are 16 years old, not an adult, but nevertheless getting there. You've made mistakes and there's plenty more to come. If you can convince her that you have UNDOUBTEDLY learned your lesson, she should listen to you.skin care
