Q: Ive just started babysitting and i dont no how much i should charge and hour. any ideas?

Everybody has their own prespectives on how much to charge for that. Depends on how many kids your babysitting and also how much of a handful they are. ***trix***

Q: my mom has babysat for her friends for over a year or 2 and this one of them has hardly paid her for it and still owes her like $300. one night i babysat for her and was supposed to get $10 for it. but i never did. how can i get the money without being rude or asking for it?

You really have the right to ask for it and so does your mom. Your watching someone elses kid. thats not your responsibility. good luck on asking *trix*

Q: ok what is the age to start baby- sitting? and how much should i ask for them to give me and hour?

Legal was you have to be i think 13.. and I charge $3 per kid per hour. Everybody varies really. Or sometimes i will just take whatever tehy give me. whatever works! trix

Q: where are some stores you shop for your clothes at? because they are really cute

Gadzooks. Pac Sun. Jc Pennys. Gordmans. Mandy. Old Navy. Wal-mart. Aeropostale. A&F. (trix)

Q: Hey im a boy and 13 so theres a girl i like and she likes me. And im tryin to find a way to ask her out, because she doesnt have any messengers i dont think and im to shy to ask her on the phone or in person.What do i do?

-confused

Note... a note is just like any type of messanger.. except you wont get the reply right away.. or.. have a friend ask her for you.. then you should get the answer a lil sooner before the note gets back to you! trixie

Q: i like this boy at school but i am in grade school is that to young to start a relatioonship

Well not really.. just go for it. dont worry about age. just be careful what you do at that age! trix

Q: I have dedicated this poem to my plant that will not grow.
little little fern why dont u grow,
little little fern i want to know,
i sit here waiting for you,
i just dont know what to do,
i put you outside i pit you inside,
but every since my cat ate u it died.

should i keep my fern?

Ms. Ferny Fran :)

Haha thats a cute lil poem about your little fern. Sad but cute. Good job... but umm if its dead maybe you shoud reconsider getting a new one. trix

Q: my sister and I went to the swimming pool and when we got back she was like 'I WAN In tHE SHOWER FIRST!!!" so I let her take a shower first, and while she was in there I didn't know what to do then I remembered I hadn't played the piano for a while. so I sat down and played the piano. but I was still wet and had my swimsuit on. so I get up and on the piano bench, which is wood, there's this raised warped part where it's kinda lighter color and it's EXACTLY the shape of my BUTT and you can see where my thighs were and everything! I tried to dry it but it won't go away. I'm really freaking out because my mom will be home in a few hours and I don't know what to do!

Your Screwed. Sorry. Trix. maybe cover it up with something nice.

Q: I like to run around town in my favorite running shoes, not wearing socks. This is cool because it's relaxing, but not cool because my shoes smell like the living dead. I really, really don't want to wear socks, so besides that, what can I do to cure these things?

Get that spray for foot odor or get a new pair of sneaks.. or just wear socks i understand that you dont like socks.. but thats another solution.. unless your real attached to them sneakers get identicle ones!! hope you find a way for that stench! good luck! trix

Q: How can I keep from flicking little bits of plaque onto the bathroom mirror when I floss my teeth?

Thats kinda.. gross.. brush your teeth before hand if you already do.. then use a toothpick then brush your teeth and if you already do that then brush twice and use a toothpick twice then floss.. wierd.. trix

Q: I don't wanna clean my room! should I?

AnOtHeR rAnDoM ? HaHa WeLl If YoU aRe AnYtHiNg LiKe Me I HaVe FrIeNdS CoMe OvEr RiGhT AfTeR iT iS cLeAnEd AnD tHen ItS mEsSy AgAiN bUt It WoUlD bE eAsIeR tO fInD tHiNgS iF iT wErE cLeAnEd SoOoOo KeEp ThAt In MiNd!! TrIx!

Q: My best guy friend of 3 years asked me something really weird last week and I just can't stop forgetting it. We were hanging out w/ his friend, and we somehow started talking about the fact that a guy in my math class was looking down my shirt. Then my guy friend told me to bend over, jokingly. I was like "only if you pay me" sarcastically. Then he was like "I'll give you $6 if you give me a lapdance!!!!" And then his friend offered to give me $10 for one. I refused, of course, cuz that's just gross. I still can't get over that, though. I feel really disrespected. What should I do about it?

I wouldnt let soemthing like that get to you.. guys are just stupid most of them are anyways and maybe they were just kidding. Maybe they are just despret or something like that. But dont worry about them think as lil as possible of that day. They're low. sorry! trix

Q: I've been friends w/ this one guy since I was in the 4th grade (he was in the 3rd grade). We got really close over the summer, and his friend told me that he likes me. I kinda figured it out in my own though, cuz he always tried to be alone w/ me & stuff. Lately, we've been hanging out a lot. He's been over everyday this week so far. We just talk about really random stuff, but I somehow think that he still might like me. I don't really like him like that, bcuz I like 2 of his friends. It's really weird. What should I do?

Well dont come right out and tell him that.. wait for him to say that he likes you and then that is when you have to worry about things. And also dont tell him you like his 2 friends.. cuz that can do major damage to you and him... and tell him you value your friendship to much that if you 2 were to go out and break up u wouldnt want to lose such a great friend like him! good luck in the future xoxo trixie

Q: There's this girl I thought was my friend, and she and I and a bunch of other people were talking, and someone said they didn't "get" the stock market, and she agreed. I asked what wasn't to get. The girl started asking me all these questions about the stock market, and when I would take the slightest time to think about my answer, she would give me this LOOK. Now she won't stop quizzing me about different aspects of the stock market, and trying to "prove me wrong," saying "Maybe you don't know as much as you think. Keep your mouth shut next time" and things like that. Why is she doing this? She's NEVER done anything like this to me before.

Maybe she is trying to show herself off to the other people by putting you down. Alot of people do that to others because it makes them think higher and better of themselves. and them people will find themselves with no friends later if they dont knock it off. Talk to her about it or maybe get some real good questions going and quiz her with really hard questions and after you prove her wrong on few questions she will stop because she is emberassed herself.

Q: Eh, okay. I have a friend whom I cannnnot give advice! I just can't do it. Her problem is too complicated. So someone give me advice to give her.:P It'd be so appreciated. Her prob.:

"I've liked this guy, Alex, for about a year now. All throughout school I've never talked to him alone. Only during 1st period. (The only class I have with him) My problem is I'm at least 30 pounds over weight, but I'm popular...I'll admit it. I'm too shy to talk to Alex. I feel like he'll diss me, or something. But he seems really nice, and he's funny. But he's also one of those real popular guys. Omg, he's fucking sexy. Lol. Whhhhat do I do?"

Kks. Thanks tons, you all. xoxox Mariah

The girl's name is Jordan, if ya like...wanna write to her.:P

Well be confident talk to him im sure nothing can go wrong just a normal convorsation like how are things going and then after you guys talk for a bit everything will lead into another and everything will wind up good. Dont worry if your over weight and if that gets to him then he is low and pathetic. And you can do much better. On the other hand if he doesnt care about weight then stick with him and just make a move. Or maybe have a friend talk to him about what he thinks of you. good luck! trix

Q: Lately, my mom has been telling the most random people really personal stuff about me. For instance, I bought a thong the other day, and my mom went and told all of the people at her work. I also trusted her when I told her who I had a crush on. She told my whole entire family and a bunch of her customers at her work. She also tells people what grades I get (A's, B's, & C's), that I'm "way too thin", and all this personal stuff. I've told my mom to stop, but then it always gets worse. What should I do?

Tell her how you feel.. show her it hurts you and you dont want her to tell anymore people your fed up with it and you wont tell her anything anymore if it keeps up. Maybe she is just showing you off.. showing that she has a better kid then others.. sorry im not much help.. trix

Q: Ok I'm 14 years old and in the 8th grade I wear a 32A. My mom said her boobs stoped growing in the 8th grade so do u think mine will grow anymore?

Usually people take after there mom.. I am sure you are done for now you might grow a lil bit more .. but most likely not. **TRIX**

Q: What does it mean if a girl's cherry pops?

If a girls cherry pops it means that the girl is no longer a virgin.. she had sex .. thats all the advice i can really give.

Q: hi this is kristi... i asked you about how i should ask ricky about his feelings and stuff. well ricky and me have 2 classes together pe and english,in our english class my friend alana sits next to him & she says that he talks about me some times and says that im really cute and that he wants to hang out. then the other day i was talking about my b-day cuz it was only 3 days away. ricky over heard me and said he was going to get me something. well i guess the next day he was talking to alana about it.. then that night alana told me that he was flipping out because he didnt have any money then so the present would have to be late so he was worried that i was going to be mad at him. does that mean anything? like how he was so worried about not getting me a present?
kristi

OOOO!! HE LIKES YOU!! Cuz if you liked someone and were worrying what to get them and worrying that it would have to be late it would most likely be because you like him! Does he know that you like him? I would defintly tell him!! even if your to shy or maybe alana could tell him for you and im sure his reaction will be good! maybe you to will start to go out!! Is he going to go to your party? Maybe that would be a good place to tell him.. buncha ppl around so everything should be crazy and all good!! I wish ya the best of luck with you and ricky!! tell me how everything went! *~*Trix*~*

Q: I liked this one guy for a little over a year. I was at a dance on Friday & was having fun, but then a slow song came on & he went & danced with this girl that I really dislike. As he was dancing w/ her, he kept smiling at me and staring at me. After that, I was dancing w/ a few of my friends, and he kept moving around so that he could see me. Then he went off during another slow song and danced with a total slut. He stared at me during that one, too. I'm really confused. What does it all mean?

He probably wants you to go and make the move for you to ask him to dance... did the girls ask him? or did he ask them? even if he did ask the slut i wouldnt take it personally.. shes a slut remember and she probably isnt scared to ask anybody to dance and he is probably to nice to say no.. next time a dance rolls around ask him and if your to scared have a friend ask him.. :) good luck!! trix
