Iam 16 years old and my math teacher has been really mean to me like she calls me fat and miss piggy and it's really lowering my selfesteem.mrs.Trapnell that's my teachers name asked me how much my mom weighed and she asked me was my sister fat and all kinds of things like that.mrs.Trapnell also made me sit in the counsler's office for 2 hours for something that didn't even happen in her classroom I was stretching and my shirt was kind of short and this boy was next to me and mrs.trapnell saw it and this happened 2 days before she sent me to the counsler's office she said I was showing off my body in front of this boy named carl is this ok for a teacher to do this can I get her in trouble can she get fired.Is this right or is it my fault?

This most certainly isn't right nor fair. You should tell your parents or the principle. If they don't believe you then record her saying it.

It's NOT your fault. It's her's for being an idiot. Please tell someone because she will get in deep trouble for her actions!

I have this friend who I met a few months ago. We became almost like best friends (emphasis on almost) until I noticed something..she follows me. If I don't show up for lunch one day she looks around the school for me. If I don't show up to meet with her and our "possy" in the morning one day, she goes everywhere to find me, and this just creeps me out. On top of that, she ALWAYS needs my help with math homework. Always. Whenever I help her, she just says "I don't know how to do it" and when I show her, she scoots so close to me and it makes me feel like punching her. I was doing my homework this morning and said I was busy so she sat there looking at me while I did it.

Anyways, I told another friend about this and SHE told HER. And so she cried during first period and ugh. What should I do?

male/16

Hi,

It sounds like your friend really has a 'thing' for you or hasn't had many good friends. You should take this girl thats stalking you and tell her in private that you want to be friends with her but you would really appreciate that if she would kinda let you have "me" time ever once in a while. But make it clear that you want to be friends only. That is if you really do. =].

I have a friend like that. Yesterday I missed school and another friend told me that she went into the hall during class break and looked all over for me and was screaming my name. When I got to school this morning it was, "____ where were you yesterday!?! I was soo sad!".

So I really hope that you get things clear with this girl. Because I know how it feels. Good luck!

I would like teenagers to answer this one,

My daughter is 13. But the clothes she wears are not...happy. She always is sarcastic. She listens to strange, loud music. Is this the fashion these days? Should I let her be?

Hi,

This is from a person that knows. I wear black, and listin to bad, loud music. Please keep an eye on her. I have to talk to a theropist about my problems. As a matter of fact, this is the fashon these days but limit what she does. Because rock music can lead to bad things. But! All rock music isn't bad. Some is good. Just have a talk with her like my mom did and tell her something like, "I don't mind your music. I just don't want you to go to far with this. I'm not trying to 'ruin' your life. I just don't want to see you hanging with the wrong people."

ok this may sound a bit strange but does any1 know about the average bra size 4 a 13 year old because i get really embaressed getting sized up!!

Hey,

It really depends on how tall you are and how much you weigh. If you are skinny (around 90-120) then you are more likely going to be an A or a B. I'm a C. But I'm a little fat (lol). But it really depends on your weight.

Good Luck!

ok i think getting high would be worse than getting drunk, but my friend doesnt belive me. do any of you know which one is worse for you?

thanks

Hi,

Before I say anything PLEASE don't do any of those. =]

But anyways both are pretty bad. If I had to choose it would be getting drunk because you throw up and get sick. Smoking pot...you would probably just get high for a couple of hours and act stupid. =]

There's this guy calling me and he knows my name..and he's like haressing me! It's scary..the thing is, he's hiding his number...and it's so freaky because he keeps calling back. He's also using this voice changer thing so he sounds like a robot...aah iddk! Is there anyway I can find out who he is? My cellphone says it's "private caller". Ughhh I mean this guy obviously is someone who knows me..but who?? It's weeirdd

Hey,

Call the phone company in which you are signed up to and tell them to put on "No Blocked Calls". That Way he will have to show his number or get on a Pay Phone to call you.

I have an HpDeskjet 3500 printer. Its hooked up to my computer but I forgot which type of USB cable it uses. I have tried googling it but all I have found out is that they don't make this printer anymore. I mean is it USB 1.1? 2.0? It is highly unlikely that its 2.0 because my computer was made in 1998.

Hey,

I used to have a printer and computer made in that year so try the 1.1 because I'm about sure thats what it uses. If not then call the company or get on their web site and provide the information that you gave here.

I need to lose about 10 pounds really fast. It is SO important that I do. To loose this weight in 2 weeks or less what do I have to do? I am desperate, please help me. Please keep in mind I am 14, female, 140 lbs, and go to school everyday. Obviously no diet pills. Thank you so much this is very important.

Hi,

Things that you could do is do pull ups every night. Start with 10 then 20.

When you are watching TV have your parents hide the remote that way you will have to get up and turn the channel.

Walk your dog (if you have one). If you have one walk him/her about 30 minutes to an hour.

Cut back on Soda and Sports Drinks. Don't drink Diet Sodas also because they use more sugar to make the taste of the product rather than taking it out.

I really hope you reach your goal!

Hi,

I'm soo sorry to hear about your dad. Yes, your dad maybe screaming at you but please don't take it to heart. I'm afraid that your dad is afraid of dying. But before he passes on he will always love you. Just let him know how you feel because it might make him feel better. Okay? I'm soo sorry to hear about your dad. I hope you the best of luck.

I have this friend, known her forever. Shes turning out to be really mean, and its gettin me down.

This summer, we spent EVERY DAY together. Never ever missed a day. When we got back to school, she paid no attention to me. I talk to her on the computer these days and she tells me im fat, ugly, slutty, fat,fat,fat,fat,fat!!

And it gets me down, because im not fat. she gets others to hate me

But then.. Im so nice I go back to forgiving her!!


I cant stop myself!! What do I do!?!!?

Hi,

She must not be your friend. She knows how to work you now that you have forgave her so many times. But what you should do is show her a new side of you. When she trys to apologize be like, "No, I don't want to talk to you.". Don't acknowledge her. In other words ignore her the best way you can. Please, you need to find new friends.

me and my best friend arent talking and recently ive been getting im's and texts saying how my lifes soon gonna be a living hell and im gonna have no friends and that thres gonna be nasty rumors .. should i tell someone like a teacher that i trust? or should i try to work it out myself?please help!

Hi,

You should tell the principle because I bet he/she could have a talk with who ever is bothering you. Sure they might come up with some remark like "You wimp! I can't believe you told the principle...baby.." But just say something along the lines of "Well you haven't got enough common since to know that if your gonna play with fire then your gonna get burned." =]. I have the same problems right now. I know how it is when someone does things like that to you.

is there any way to delete a web address from the thing you type the web site in(sorry cant think of the name)

will rate high! thanks for any help

Hi,

Oh I accedently didn't get your question. Ok! This is right I believe. Go to "Control Panel" then go to "Add/remove Programs" and find internet explorer. BUT! Only do that if you want it PEMINATLY deleted!

But if you still want to keep Internet explorer but what to loose the address bar go to where it says "Address" at the top of the page, RIGHT CLICK, and then click "Adress Bar". It should have a check on it. After that then click "Lock the Toolbars".

Thats it!

I want to walk into my babysitting job with the kds running up to me saying yay _____ here! How any tips? I'll rate you high for trying

Hi,

I have a 2 year old nephew. What you need to do is act like them. With me I will act like I'm ignoring hiim and he will be like "Neikiiiii!!!" and come up and look at me and when he does I'll turn real fast and go "Boo!" and he really likes it. You just need to play with them. Play with their toys. Give them funny little voices that they might think is funny. Bring them things occasonally.

Also if your planning on babysitting late. Say it's 10 o-clock at night and it's their bed time but the refuse to go to bed! Set the clocks 2 hours up when their not looking and make them think you have let them stay up late. That works like a charm!

hey
I was wondering, how come everyone all of a sudden hates preps?
Like my friends and I were at the movies tonight. And i hate labeling myself but im deffinetely in the prep catogory. And all these punk emo girls were mocking us and and following us saying " like omg im like such a prep like omg" And all this other stuff. MY friends thought they were jelous but i dont know. Does anyone know why everyone doesnt like preps? Like on myspace people are posting bulletins saying " Wow i hate preps" and all this other stuff. Im just being myself,and who i am.
Does anyone know? thanks

Hi,

Preps are always seen as the: Stuck up, lying, rich girls. In some cases their not. I believe since "Mean Girls" came out people have been labeling themselves. Of couse it could have been from some other movie or some kind of music.

Green Day for example. Untill November of 2004 very few people knew the punk rock band. Well when Boulevard of Broken Dreams shot up thats when the world went crazy over them and that could have started the whole labeling thing also.

Me? I like Punk music. I do wear a lot of black clothes and I wear black eye liner. But that doesn't mean everytime I see a 'prep' on the street I run towards them and yell "Take This You Stupid Prep!! *Throws Red Paint*" Ever since I got into High School my friends started being Preps and I soon found new friends. But my old friends and I are still good friends.

So thats what I mean. When you see people out there making run of you just be like "Ewwww Their goth! Like omg I have to cut my wrist to look cool!" I am a more Punk-rock syle and I will even tell you that. Because those people are just being immature. So just ignore them or tell them off.

i am a 15/f and last summer i was raped, but the thing was i was high so i cant tell my parents or anything, but i am now clean and everything, but i have really bad flashbacks of that time, like they are so vivid and i can feel it happening and i say stuff outloud like "stop" and sutff....now i told my boyfriend and he was really upset, and i dont know how to get rid of these flashbacks without telling ne one, i mean i have a councelor but i just couldnt tell her, does anyone know what i can do?

Hi,

I have had many experiances with friends who have been raped. But in my advice please don't hold this in. It's not good for you. Do you know who the person was? If so PLEASE report it to the police. Your not hurting your self by doing that. Your hurting yourself by not telling anyone. Just think if you told someone (parent, police, etc.) you could stop this guy from probably raping other Teens because if he did it to you then he has probably done it to everyone else he has had a relationship with.

Your boyfriend also had no right to be mad at you. You were high. When people get high they do crazy things. He should have understood that. But please just get help because thats probably the only solution to get rid of those flashbacks. When I say "get help" I DON'T mean "get help you have issues idiot!". Because your not and it's normal to be afraid of things like this.

Sure your parents might be mad. But that doesn't mean that they don't love you. They can't be mad at you forever. The only thing that they could possiably be real mad at you about is not telling them. Their your parents and they will always love you no matter what. Trust me.

problem BaaN is not installed properly. Now i want to remove the services of BaaN and Oracle those were made during the last installation. so,suggest me how to remove those services and also how to clear these from Registry?

Hi,

I have never herd of BaaN but this is what I do whenever I delete programs from my PC. Go to "Control Panel" then click. Once your in there click an icon that either says, "Add or Remove Programs." then find it on the list and click "remove".

I use a sponge to wash my dishes -- wet sponge, squirt on detergent, wash dishes, rinse dishes and sponge, pretty standard. Every time I get out the sponge to wash the dishes again, it's hard and stiff and I have to wet it for it to be flexible. Is this the normal condition for used sponges or is there something I can do to make the sponge soft all the time? I tried rinsing it an extra long time last time, but it's still got hard again.

Hey,

Yes. It's totally normal. When I wash my dishes like you do my sponge is always hard untill I put it in water.
