Yo.
Sorry but you cant divorce your parents ubtil your a certain age. I dont know what it's called tough. Or if they are really making you angry see i you could stay with your aunt/uncle or cousins or friends or something like that.
Hope I helped!:)

Yo.
The only you really can do is just be there for her (or him) You could go to the mall and hang out with them or see a movie or something. You could make her cookies or something. Just hang around with her and stuff.

my best friend is mad at me for something stupid. she wont talk to me and shes leaving in like 2 months. what do i do to help our friendship? (link)
|
Yo.
I think that you should talkit out with your friend. Ask her to meet you in the hall during school or you could call her and have her meet you at the mall. You guys should just talk it out and maybe you could make her a cookie or a cake.
Hope I helped!

and i need ways to not get homesick, like things i can do that really work and like not make me more upset.

So you could like call home or write letters. If it's ok with family or the school you could go from like the 17-18 or 19. You should just hang with friends and stuff. I get homesick a lot too.
I'mnot saying no to go or something but you might wanna concider staying home.

i have two female conures (birds)(little parrots) and i caught them havin sex then a while later they had two nests and two groups of eggs on oppasite sides of the cage.they both had two eggs.and were sittin on their own pile.we have never had a male bird nobody else i no has them either so theres two female birds tht both laid 2 eggs the size of their heads.and trust me one of them didnot lay all four thatd be bigger than they are.its kinda desturbing~two females havin sexand both layin eggs~so is there somthing wrong w/ them or what (link)
|
Hi.
Well, birds can lay unfertilized eggs, but there wont be any chicjies in there waiting. If you are really worried or just creeped out you might wanna take them to a vet and see what they have to say.

Colorblind is when people cant see certain colors or just cant see any colors other black and white. It sort of depends on what 'kind' of color blind thing that they have.

Hi.
I think that you are wanted at home, but you just dont realize it. I know that you said that you werent going for adoption or police or counsiling, but i think going to a counsler would be the best thing. I know all you want is advice, but i think what you need is a counsler. Try talking to parents about how you feel. As for things at school, try and join clubs or something to meet more people and show the teachers that you are a good kid and that you dont WANT to get in trouble or mean any harm. I know you wanted simply advice but not about counsling or police help but i do think that that would be the best for you.
Hope I helped and that things work out ok.

I am 17 years old (living in Michigan). I work as a cashier. Can I get fired for calling in sick to work one time? The place I work is non-union if that makes a difference. This would be my first time calling in. Normally I wouldn't risk losing my job, but my back is killing me. Are there laws against that kind of thing or what? (link)
|
Hi.
If you arent under a contract then yes you can get fired. And if they try and fire you, you can explain why you had called in sick.
Hope I helped!

Okay so I lived somewhere for 6 months. I knew that it wasn't gonna be permanent. But I thought that it would be a kool new experience. I didnt think I would make any really good friend. But then again I never actually thought about when I was leaving. Well I lived there and i made the most awesome friends and my life has been pretty tough,but everything was goin perfect. Well I left and that hurt me. Then like not even a month later my friend commeted me on myspace and was liek I have some bad news to tell you. Well I didnt think it was nothin major so i call her and shes like you know alex right ? and it took me a couple min to understand who she was talking about. when i finally remembered him she told me that he had hung himself. I was in shock for like ever. and cry ALL the time at random moments. but i barely knew him. we had jus become friends b4 i left NJ.. but now i feel like everythings messed up. i cant stand it when ppl talk about suisicde and i dont have anyone ther to help me through. because all my friends in NJ,this is their first time its happeneind. please help me find a way to help me get over this. because i have family problems with my mother and i dont know what to do anymore. my dad is great and does as much as he can for me but i still feel lonely and i dont want to tell him that,it would break his heart
please help!! (link)

Hi.
Suiside is a terrible thing. But you can never tell when some one will go kill themselves. Maybe you could hang out with your dad a lot. Or you could go try and join clubs/groups in your school or even in your community. You could also try to talk to the neighbors (kids, teens wutever) Call your friends fromm NJ and stuff.
Hope I could help!
Im so sorry Alex hung himself.

On Saturday, my best friend *Carly* went to a party with her boyfriend. She didn't want her parents to know that she was going, so she lied to her parents and said that she would be hanging out with a girlfriend. She told me that was what she was going to do. On Saturday night, or Sunday morning rather, around 12:30, Carly's sister called me and asked if I knew where she was because she was supposed to be home at 12:00. She asked if I knew the person she was hanging out with.
I was worried about Carly. I didn't know if maybe she got drunk or if she was hurt so I snapped and told her sister that Carly was really at a party with her boyfriend. I made her swear not to tell. I only did it because I was worried something happened to her.
Carly didn't find out that it was me that did her in, but her mom made her break up with her boyfriend the next day and she is devastated. I feel horrible. If I would have known that would have happened I wouldn't have done it. It's all my fault and I don't know what to do.
Did I do the wrong thing? (link)
|
Yo.
I think that you did the best possible thing you could do. If Carly HAD gotten drunk with her boyfriend and you HADNT told her sister she might of had some problems with the police. If you tel Carly that you did tell her sister then you should tell her (and from what i read it wouldnt seem like a lie) that you were very worried and thought that it would be best to tell her sister. I think that you did the right thing.
Hope I helped.:)

hey, I wear eyeliner and sometimes I like it to be really black, and I'm wonedering if I'm supposed to put it on the upper lashline (inner and outer) and the lower inner and outer? (link)
|
I think that you could do the inner and outer on the bottom, but on the top you should probably just do the outer, I think it doesnt look as good if you have it to dark on the top,
I hope I helped!

I really don't know where else to turn right now but here. Okay, I know that I really shouldn't cut myself, but It's addicting. The teachers, my parents, they can't help! They don't get it. My parents say 'Pray'. I am Christian, but what do you do when Faith isn't enough? My teachers tell me I just need to want to stop. HELLO! I've wanted to stop! I can't! Someone please, If you know how to get unaddicted to the pain, please help me! (link)

Yo,
So heres what you do: go to a theropist.

Age: 13
Height: 5'8-5'9
Current Weight: 200 lbs.
I need to go on a diet. Simply out of question, it's something I chose and I must go on a diet. I'm looking to get down to 160 lbs at the minimum. I've tried Wight Watchers and the most I lost was 10 lbs but then I stopped because I couldn't handle the temptation. How can I get down to a flat stomache? I can't resist that well. How long will it take?
(link)
|
That is really hard. My dad went on a diet for like a 3 days (haha) and lost 2 ilbs on Slim Fast. Weight Watches works well, uhh theres this thing, ii forget what its called, they send you food for like a week and its like desserts n stuff too?; anyways.... working out at the gym works. You could get those Lean Cuisene things.
Hope I helped!
