I want to go to Confession so badly. I just want to feel more clean and worthy of God, but I don't know how I can go. I'm Catholic and so is my family, I'm a very strict Catholic but not to a huge level. The only time I EVER go to Confession is when my school goes. My school is a Catholic School so we go like once every school year. I would feel embarassed to go up to my mom and just say "Can we go to Confession?". I don't know why. I'm not embarassed about my faith at all, in fact I'm proud. In fact I'd love to just wear a necklace with a cross to advertise my faith in school because my friends aren't very faithful. Or at least they don't act like they care about God which bothers me SO MUCH! And then one of them just says "Since when do you care about giving things up for Lent?" I'VE ALWAYS CARED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT JUST GETS ME SO MAD I'M SORRY. Anyways, how do I go to Confession without asking my parents? Is there something I could do? I want to go to one Priest in particular. How can I do that?
Thanks. (link)

You could always have some prayer time to yourself, in your room, and confess to God of whats bothering you. Time alone with God just might be the answer. If you feel that you have to go do it with a priest, without your parents, maybe ask a friend to take you over? If their your real friends, they should understand, even if they aren't very faithful. Yes, it could be akward if they aren't very ok with it, but would you rather be with them, or your parents? Are your parents strong catholics? If you feel you need to go to confession, and you have no other choice, I'd go with your dad or mom.
