|   I'm a 38 year old psychologist living in Nashville, Tennessee. Until shortly over a year ago, I hosted a radio/tv talk show. At the moment, I'm amid plans to start a new one called, " One Man's Opinion". It's a radio show FOR women, ABOUT men, BY a man.
 Seeing that alot of issues are age-related, please state your age when posing a question.

| Hi one man, you have answered alot of my questions i wanted to make sure that you answer this one. You seem to be the most educated advice-giver on this site. not to say anything bad to the other advice columnists. I'm asking this question because i'm desprete! (no offence) My mom has this hatrid for schools and so i'm home schooled but I don't get taught anything! Some of you may think this is great but I want to go to collage and my mom is excepting me have my GED when I turn 16 which is in 2 years. My mom says thats its my responsability to remind her to teach me. Its just that I don't like to remind her because all she does is give me the same stuff to that she has been giving me for the last 6 years.And when I don't remind my mother she gets mad and says that i'm the one that doesn't want to learn and if I don't want to learn its not hurting her.
 My mother REALLY depressed and I am having a hard time with her. Infact, all the people she is around know. they can feel the negitive vibes coming off her. She is always crying and yelling at me for no reason. My mom used to be avery upbeat happy person but she has changed. she is always negitive and unhappy. always tired.
 This year when school starts I should be in 9th grade and in high school but I am really scared about what to do! because if the state knew that I'm not getting any schooling they would take me away. I mean I'm getting to the point to where I'm going to tell the state. Please don't tell me tell my mother to put me in school because I have done that MANY times and trust me my mom isn't pretty when she is mad.
 I have taught myself to read and write play the piano and many other things that I could learn to do in school.
 I am very advanced in piano and I write poetry and I have one that is published and I have storys published in magazines too. I am also very good at cooking, baking and sewing.
 So you see I'm not stupid but I feel I can't go any futher now. I NEED to be in school.
 
 I really could use your advice!
 thankyou you can e-mail me at kutekrushkat@yahoo.com

 |  | Dear not stupid. I think it's VERY obvious from your accomplishments that you aren't stupid, or anything remotely resembling it :) I think there may be a bit more to your situation and in respect to you and the sensitivity of the subject, I'm going to submit my answer to you at the e-mail address provided. |
