My name is Kerry. I am 15 years old. I attend East Carteret High School, in Beaufort, North Carolina. I am gonna be a sophmore this year; thrilled. I am a huge Kelly Clarkson freak. I am kinda short, only 5'2. Brown hair, brown eyes, nothing special. I am not exactly, "Miss Popular" however, I do have a lot of friends, some popular, some not. I like my friends, I wouldn't change them for anything. I go to Church every chance that I get. I love the rain, love nature. I love to play soccer. I can't really think of anything else to say about me.

I wanted to start this column because everyone always comes to me for advice. I actually think I give good advice, one of the only things I am actually good at!

I'm a 14 yr. old girl. My Mom is going to college for a 2nd time. She's just had her heart broken. She's drawing from her life savings, so this is her last chance for school. The problem is, she is so hurt, she can't sleep or study. She drinks more than she used to. She won't talk to me about it much (I thinks she thinks I won't understand). (link)
Aww, first off, I am sorry for whatever your mom is going through. :(

I would say that there isn't much that you can do. Her heart has to heal, it's not easy.
I would say, don't try to make her tell you anything, just let her know that you are there for her if/when she needs you.
If it gets too bad, sit her down and TRY to talk to her and tell her that you are worried about her and her well-being.I hope everything works out for you sweetie.


14/f....Ok people this is like serious so dont be like rude about this...

Thanks soo much guys ! (link)
Gawsh! That made me cry. :( It's always sad to hear about someone losing a loved one. I have had a lot of people in my family that I have lost, my father included. I would say that there isn't really much that you can do. I would say just be there for him. Just tell him that you love him. After losing so many loved ones, I can't even leave a room without saying "I love you" to whoever was in that room with me.
Just tell him you love him, and pray for him. Prayer is a very powerful thing. God will answer your prayers in different ways then you think. Even if your father dies (which is a very strong possibility since he, himself, said he would) just think of him in Heaven, pain-free.

I really hope that everything works out for you sweetie!! If you ever need to talk, feel free to email me or something.

Love always,
Kerry


i feel like i don't really connect with my family. i feel so different. i feel like an outcast. my whole family is so close, i am just so differeny. any way i can connect with them? (link)
Well, maybe it's best if you don't connect with your family. I don't really know your family, or you for that matter, so I can't really say much. However, I am sure you connect with them in ways that you don't see. Like someone told me once....If so-and-so jumped off a bridge, would you? Would you do that just to be like your family? I say, just be yourself, and live your life. You will one day see how alike ya'll really are.

Love always,
Kerry
