Report the incident to the principal and the school's superintendent. Have your parents and the doctor both do this.

Shit, I didn't have kids until we were 26, and THAT was not exactly easy.

You have no clue what you'd be getting yourself into. You are not financially secure, you are not emotionally secure, you are not at all independent, though you likely think that you are.

You are absolutely NOT ready for a child. A child is not a play thing - it is a huge undertaking, a responsibility that you cannot set aside for whatever whimsy comes your way. Once you have a kid, you have no life - for your life now belongs to the kid, because it needs you. Are you ready for that?


p.s. - interesting how, according to the questions you've asked on this site that you're 14, you're also 12, and you're 10 and have already been pregnant.

Bye bye.


I had a boyfriend and we were together for 9 months..we had sex and I don't think I was ready. I was one of those girls who wanted to stay a virgen until I was married...and now its gone....should I regret it? B/c I feel like I do, but I know there isn't anything I can do about it now... (link)
Seems to me that you already regret it.

Problem is, there's nothing you can do about it.

You made your choice, and you are going to have to deal with knowing what you did, and questions whether or not it was wise to have done.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing in that regard - except for that whole inability to change the past.

I agree that 9 months with someone isn't all that long an amount of time (though it may seem it at first). If you think that you weren't ready, then you weren't ready. Perhaps you'll give it more thought next time you find yourself in this situation.


Okay I put poems on here....and you guys said be careful putting them on here or someone will steal them...how do I make it so no one can steal them?? (link)
declare copyright... this, however, requires you to place your real name on the works. (there may be ways around this, but I've not looked them up).

I have recommended in the past that people write down their poems - make a copy of it, and mail it to yourself. The postmark on the envelope (do not open the mail either - you already know what's in it) is legal proof / documentation of when you wrote the piece.

But the best way is to just declare "Copyright YOUR NAME, 2004" - it is that simple.


well to make it kinda short i do drungs. not all the time but i do get high. Well. it seems like thast the only time i can get horny. i mean i know what i'm doing but thats the only time i get "in the mood" and when i'm not i still like making out with my bf. but i'm not horny. and it seems like i dont want ot do anything.. is this normal.. (link)
generally, drugs inhibit one's ability to perform well in sex...

...and from the sound of it, I doubt you should be doing drugs or making out with someone.


Does anyone know how to file a report online? I cannot find a site for it. Thank you! (link)
What kind of report are you trying to file and to where? Any details you can add?


after i shower i lay with my pusssy up towards the bath tub facuet and turn it on.. the pressure feels amazing and i really enjoy it.. but is it wrong and will it hurt me? (link)
answering your own question, eh? bad form.


okay..well me and my boyfriend have been going out for almost 9 months now..and hes had a lot happen in his life lately (parents divorce and stuff)..but hes been takin' it out on me..and he'll promise me something and then break it saying he cant bc hes too upset..but he only says it when he doesnt feel like hanging out..and it really upsets me bc he lies a lot..should i break up with him or what?? i need HELP! (link)
Sounds like he is somewhat abusing and using you. He's being selfish, and it seems like it is only bringing you down. As harsh as it may seem, the best lesson he might be able to learn is you dropping him. You can perhaps still be his friend, but don't let him think of himself as your boyfriend anymore. You are better off right now without a burden like that. He needs to sort out his life on his own - he has no time for a relationship, since he is only abusing it.


ok... i like this boy and i think e likes me. sometimes we make like 1 second eye contact or like when we pass by eachother, i can feel a vibe. i gave my friend this note 2 give 2 him and he looked freaked out. so he asked me 2 days later if i wrote it, and i told him no because i guess he didn't like me. ever since said no, he started to bother me again like teasing me and stuff. school ends the 25 and i want 2 know if he likes me or not! plz help!!!!! (link)
Have you tried just talking to him like a normal person? Seriously - forget about whether or not he likes you in that regard - see if he's even willing to talk to you, because if he isn't, is he even worth pursuing?

Asking "hey, how's it goin'" or asking if he might like some band is better than asking "do you like me?". You should not have to ask "do you like me" - it should be obvious if he does, and if he does, keep talking to him. You've got 4 days - that's plenty of time.


My and my boyfriend have been dating for almost 15 months and we have come close to have sex sooo many times... the only thing stopping us is that he doesnt have condoms. We both know that if he did, that we would probably end up doing something if we had the chance, but we are also both worried about pregnancy! Thats why we are hesitant about buying condoms.
I am 16 and he is 17.
What should i do? (link)
I think you should probaly wait until you're more sure of yourselves and your ability to safely have sex, condoms in hand or not.


How do you loose weight the easy way??? Im confused i have been going to a gym regually and still i haven't seen no change in my weight. Im annoyed and im starting to want to give up but i really want to loose weight. Is there any other ways of loosing weight faster??

Luv Shelly (link)
Exercise alone will not do it. You must follow a regimented plan - have an actual course of action with how you work out. Then combine that with modifying not only what you eat, but how you eat. It isn't all about losing weight - but also toning muscle that you have, and perhaps even gaining muscle - and as always, keep in mind that muscle weighs more than fat, but can take up less space and generally "looks better".

But the point is, you must have a well defined plan, and you must have discipline to reach your goals.

Weight loss / working out / general fitness is not an overnight thing and does take time. Be patient and don't give up.


I got pushed off this hill of woodchips n landed right on my back... I didn't notice at the time but i broke 2 of my ribs... Yes it hurt extremely bad but I wanted to be tough n finished school the rest of the day and actually attended basketball n played it. The physical trainer at my school made me lay on the gym floor and do streches to strech it out.She wouldn't listen to me because i told her i couldn't do that. She told me i had to do 100 times of the streches n now i suffer pain from that. Is there anyway to fix it? I went to the chiropractor. But that didn't work! HELP!! (link)
why would you do to a chiropractor for broken ribs?

Have you gottan an actual x-ray of your rib cage to verify the injury?

If you haven't - go get it done.

If you have - then why are you doing all this other stuff with a highly painful injury? Use your head.


what is a g-string? (link)
Well, the G string is the highest tuned string on my 4-string bass. It is also the 4th string on my 6-string guitars. A new g-string, with tax, used to cost $6.66

If you are referring to the underwear, it is otherwise known as butt-floss.


So, yeah. I don't think I have ever felt so strongly for someone in my life...ever. I think I am experiencing love as much as I can at such a young age or, at least, something very close.

Various people (not me) have discussed this (he knows I am at least somewhat attracted) with him and appears to have no interest back.

What should I do? (link)
If he has no interest, then you are not in love. You might have some amazing infatuation with him, but love is a two-way street.



If you're looking to confirm this, just strike up any old conversation with him. If he has absolutely no interesting in talking to you, that's a pretty good sign that there's nothing there. If he's really nervous talking to you, then there's a good chance that he might like you, and you should just keep talking to him until he feels more comfortable. Just talk about anything.


i really want to go to canada. i want to just drop everything and go there. live my life in a cabin in the middle of the wilderness on a small lake and use a busch plane to get to town when i need to. i could drop eveything in my life and go and not have any regrets. except one. i have a girlfriend and i LOVE her a lot. i really do. im 16 and i could leave both my parents and everything else with out regrets except her. i feel like i have found true love. but on the other hand i feel like im 16 and dont know shit about love and live. i dont care how old you are, i just want to know what you think of my situation. (link)
I think that you probably don't really know shit about life, as you stated. There's a lot you do know, and a lot that you only think you know. give yourself more time to finish growing up... there's no need to rush the process - that's what our lives are for.


My rat is nibbling my finger whenever I put it in his cage and wait for him what does this mean? (link)
It might like the salt on your skin. So long as it isn't chomping on you and drawing blood, it might just be showing affection for you.


i've bene really close to having sex with my boyfriend but we havent.. i heard that if u wear tampons it doesnt hurt too much. well. i'm still a virgin. of course but how is it and how does it feel? will it hurt really bad? (link)
If you wear a tampon during sex, you can very well end up with it shoved so far up in you that you cannot get it out without assistance from someone with a pair of tweezers. I am not kidding.


Do you guys notice that ppl are writting poems?? What's up with that? It's not like the poems are bad or anything, but THIS IS AN ADVICE PAGE!!!! NOT A POEM PAGE!!! Besides, not many ppl needs advice anymore.... (link)
hey, did you ever think that they were asking for advice/feedback on what they had written? or is that too obvious for you.

That is what the writing section was made for. Asking questions about writing, and asking for feedback on things you had written (being that feedback is advice).


Marijuana is obviously one of the most popular illigal drugs. but is it really a bad thing? I have personal experiences and well to tell truth, it doesnt really hinder your judgement, nor does it make you feel invincible. All marijuana does is make you really goofy. Ppl say that car accidents happen alot due to marijuana. what these ppl over look is that those kids that are in the accidents are also drunk. which is what really hinders and clouds your judgement.
Is there actually any REAL physical harm that will come from marijuana, aside from the obvious? (link)
some people seem to be able to smoke pot with a level of responsibility.

Others are weak - and after a while, pot just doesn't get them high enough, so they start trying other "harder" drugs. In this way, pot is considered a "gateway" drug. Mind you, this doesn't always happen, but it can happen, and I've seen it happen.

Is pot itself dangerous? It can be. But in other regards, it is safer than cigarettes. It is a grey area - it is not wholly understood. It has much potential merit for pharmaceuticals, but its recreational usage I question.

Marijuana can indeed screw with your sense of perception, thus driving while under its effects is just fucking stupid.
