I am in seventh grade and I was wondering if I could play football in eighth grade. I weigh 133 pounds and I am 5'5. Not that much in shape and have more of a smaller body type. I was planning on working out this summer if I have to because I really want to play but I don't know if it will be too much for me. What position could I play also, I asked some people but that didn't really help. I don't think I can play like on of the bigger guys who is supposed to tackle anybody but I thought maybe running back or something would be okay. This will also be my first time playing on a team since I never did sports as a kid but a lot of my friends are doing football so I wanna do it too. A lot of the other kids are way more experienced too. Please help! (link)

If your fast, and can catch, a wide-reciever might be the position for you, or if your fast, and hit, a saftey might work too. If your not any of these, you could try a kicker or punter. And also, remember to ask your coach about what position you could play, it's his team, and he knows best. Hope my advice helped!:)

i am 13, and i live with my adoptive parents. my real mom had me at 16 and got me token away when i was very young. i have always said that i would not be a teen mom, that i would wait for after marriage. but yesterday i found out that i am pregnant. how do i tell my parents? and i will not get an abortion and i don't want to give my baby away. so how will i tell my mom( that is 6 months pregnant) and dad that their 13 year old daughter is pregnant and wants to keep her baby? (link)

First of all, if you haven't already, tell the father, make the decision together. If that's out of the option, you should tell her immediately. Parents don't want to here this, especially at this age, but let's face it, it happens. Try to get your mother into a long conversation about herself from the past, then just blurt it out. Now I wouldn't recommend this, but it might help, tell her your really sorry, and that this mistake hurts your life deeply, and you may wanna end it. She might act a little more nicer if you say those things. I know you say you wanna keep the baby, but are you really responsible enough to? You have to make a decision that's best for the child. After you tell your parents this, talk to them about what you should do with the child. And remember, if you can, to talk to the father about it, it should be your decision together. Hope my advice helped.

Hi. So in the fall, I'll be going into 7th grade. But this will also be at a new school. So there are 2 middle schools in my town, and all of my friends are at the smaller one, and I'll be moving to the bigger one. Technically this will be my first year of real middle school though, because last year in 6th grade, I was actually homeschooled. This will not change my level of work at school this year, because I am a very extraordinary student anyway, although I am worried about middle school itself. I'm a newbie, AND it's my first year of middle school when everyone else started last year. I won't know my way around, I'll be late for classes, I don't even know how their systems work and everything. I'll be the new clueless yet smart girl that everyone pities. I'm smaller and an easy target for bullies, but I can come back with extremely witty comebacks that makes them want to wish they were dead in a ditch, if that helps. But I need to know some important things that will help me. I already know how to unlock lockers and stuff, so yeah. Thanks for your time. (link)

Going to a new school can be stressful, but it's also a chance to make some new friends! Don't be embaressed about not knowing your way around the school, or being late to classes, just ask one of the students, or teachers. I'm sure they will understand your confusion. You might wanna join some after school activities to make friends. You can also sit with other people at lunch to make friends. I would recommend to just ignore the bullies, and don't give them any attention. I'm sure you'll find some friends eventually. I hope my advice helped! :)

How do I make my dad understand how much he's mentally hurting me by taking away my iPod permanently until he can block chat sites? When he takes it away and blocks the chat sites, I can't talk to my friends or my girlfriend anymore, and it's really hurting me. I try to talk to him, but all he does in response is not listen and make fun of me. I really need someone's help right now... v.v
I am a 13/F (link)

Sometimes parents think they are doing a good thing, but really doing something bad. Since your iPod is your only communication with your friends, it's ok to have your chat rooms taken away for a little while, but not forever. Having to go without communication with people your age for a long time can't be good for your mental health. If your dad is making fun of you for this, that's not right. You didn't mention a mother in this. I don't mean to bring up any unwanted feelings, in case you have any about her. But if she is there she may understand your pain better than your dad. Tell your dad that not seeing your friends for a long time can mess with you. If he just ignores you or makes fun with you, make him sit down with you and have a talk. Your 13, and you seem to know the rules of the chat rooms to stay safe. I don't recommend this, but only do this if you don't have a choice. You can probably find a way to unblock the chat rooms, but only do this if you don't have a choice. Instead of doing that, it would be a better idea to sit down, and talk with him. Hope my advice helped! :)

I need help! My favourite teacher is leaving and I have known her since 6th Grade!!(my school is high school and primary school) she used to teach my sister in 3rd grade, but she swapped classes( to my Class) I really like her because I can tell her everything. She is like a sister to me, and she makes me laugh. A few weeks ago she told my class she was leaving to another school, at first I didn't care, but when she said another town I got emotional. It is 7 days left of the year! How can I make her stay? I really need help! Yours sincerely-Chole 12 (link)
| |
If your teacher has a Facebook, or Twitter, or some type of social media that you have, than that way you can keep in contact. There's also the option of sending letters and packages. Unfourtenly, you can't make her stay, but you can wish her the best of luck! Take a picture with her, and keep it, so that you will always remember her. Hope my advice helped! :)

First off, it's hard to lose someone you deeply care about, or even someone you use to care about. He might need time to get over it. Sometimes when people think they have gotten over it, but truly haven't. I know you deeply care about him, but maybe a breakup for a few months might need to happen. You can still be there for him, but not as a girlfriend. If he doesn't get over it in a few months, talk to a therapist or school counselor for him. I'm a few months, I bet he'll be over it! Hope my advice helped!

Hi i am 13 and i am worried because when mu friends get thier period it last for at least 7 days but i am the only one that is different when i get my period it only last for 4 days is that normal what does that mean (link)
| |
This is normal. Every girl gets her period differently. Your friends just get longer periods than you, no big deal. Just don't worry about it, it's perfectly normal for every girl. Hope my advice helped! :)

its a female and looks the exact same each time. who is she? my spirit guide? my angel? a spirit? or just a ghost? how am I supposed to know? how do I talk to her? because she keeps showing herself, but wont say anything to me. shes so beautiful and seems so lively and positive and id really love to communicate with her everyday and continue to see her everyday. thank you. (link)
| |
It's hard to say what she is, but if you want to try to communicate with her, try making a pendulum. Just take a piece of string and hold it up. Say that the left swing is for no, and the right swing is for yes. If this does not work I advise you to just try talking to her. Remember you have to trust and believe in her. It might take a few days for her to warm up to you, but I know you can do it! Hope my advice helped! :)

...I saw a very vivid female with light orangish hair that was very short and medium shade peach skin tone and a very long and long sleeve laced white dress. she was walking in front of the mirror. and I just quickly walked away. I wasn't scared, I was just so damn shocked. i got a really good vibe from her, like i feel like she could be my spirit guide or even guardian angel, and i really want to communicate with her. how can i do this during meditation? and then eventually be able to talk to her whenever i want? thank you!!! (link)
| |
Just talk to her. While we believe spirit guides can read our minds, we get mixed feelings so it's hard to determin how we really feel. Since they can usually read out minds, that's how you can talk to her while you meditate. Other than that, you can just talk to her. Hope my advice helped! :)

My bestfreind is hanging out with her other friend and idk what todo i don't want to be jealous (link)

Just tell her you want to hang out more, or maybe schedule a time where all 3 of you could hang out. Hope my advice helped! :)

I had to read the lightning thief in school. I read the rest of the series and am currently on The Lost Hero. I found out there was a movie version and I am not going to tell you all the 10,000 million things wrong with it. Why did they do that? (link)
| |
This happens to most books that turn into movies. When you read the book for yourself you can decide what everything looks like. While in the movie it's just what the director thought it looked like. Getting everything from the book is just to time consuming, that's why the movie is never just like the book. A lot of people think that the books are better, because it can go into bigger detail. While books don't have a time limit, movies do, so they have to ditch some of the unimportant stuff. Hope my advice helped! :)

yeah patient and challenge are twin brothers but that crap is soo hard when you know you got hit by the cupid with his arrow crapp!!it makes you over think about it its like when she's been asking you to hangout with her then you ask her for a number then you called it then it rings 4 times then you hear her you then you said something then it just say call ended (link)
| |
It's kind of hard to answer this question, because I don't really know what your getting at. What I think your saying is that you called a girl, you said some things, and she hung up on you. Her call might of ended by accident. Or she could be weirded out by what you said. What did you say? I suggest calling her back, or talking to her in person about it. Hope my advice helped! :)

i am not even gonna mention it a couple days ago i ask this lady out she seems very happy to go out i ask her to go to starbucks mined you the starbucks is just a walking distance she texted me around 7pm the date was at 9 she says on the text sorry i forgot i have to stay on a meeting shit man!!how irresponsible you are to not know you have a meeting plus there was no counteroffer broken dates is a deadly sin theres is on dating no counteroffer next!!!!this one i am not even gonna give her the idea to text me that she can't go i am gonna make her think that i don't care i wanna make her think that she's not the only and i think that is called challenge shit man girl this crap to test us guys well you know what she's pissing on a wrong tree (link)
| |
First off, calm down. If I understand correctly, you are mad at a girl that could not come to your date, because she had a meeting. Some people don't know they have a meeting until the last minute. She could of just forgot about the meeting, and remembered at 7:00. Just think about it, a date at Starbucks is not that big of a deal. You could make it up the next day. Hope my advice helped! :)

My friends did the challenge but we didn't know we had to say charlie charlie can we stop? before we could stop playing! Are we all going to be haunted until we die or just the person who first asked to summon the demon?
SCARED PLEASE HELP! (link)
|
No, the Charlie Charlie challenge is not real. If you saw it on youtube, most people blew on a straw to make it move. If you are really worried you can try smudging, that's the practice of burning herbs and the smoke will rid your house from the spirits. Hope my advice helped! :)
|
|
Let me begin, we created the ouigia board so we would move around some glass and think a demon is doing it, then run around screaming, expecting something to happen so our brain makes it seem like something is happening. Then we make up bloody marry and red rum bullshit, wich is stupid, and makes no sense. And if you live in my town, you will never hear the end of the countless urban legends about a certain street. I feel bad for people who live there, they have to deal with idiots driving their car and beeping in front of stupid houses or trying to film Mary Buckout and countless other stupid shit. Then Charlie Charlie. Your breath is doing it, i did it, it was fun watching everyone hoard my lunch table like i was dying, and everyone screaming at the slightest movement of anything in God's green earth, and these chain letters show how little creativity we have unless it's insulting someone's mother or whats gay, and despite school, no one knows proper grammer or how to spell. The question i would like to know, why do we love to try to scare ourselves? (link)
| |
Actually there are a few reasons, one of the reasons is that fear keeps us from worrying. For some people life can seem quite boring. Fear gives us a little spice in our normal lives. Fear also unleashes feel good chemicals in our body. It activates our fight or flight response. And that can feel good. Fear can also give us confidence. Going through a scary experience can make us feel accomplished. We might get addicted to this feeling so we try to seek it out. And finally fear can bring us closer to each other. Hope my advice helped! :)

Hi,
I'm usually pretty good at giving advice, but this I can't help myself with. I'm 13 and I just got transferred to a new place. I've been here for two months now. As many people here are teens they love to act all grown up and I'm not comfortable with the kind of things they do and the language they use, so I'm not friends with anyone, I tried to adjust and get used to them but without a friend I just can't manage. I'm kind of shy but I can make friends easily, but no one is like me (a little kiddish and crazy) everyone loves to act all grown up. I'm having a tough time making friends, please give me some advice on how I can adjust or I'll end up a lonely girl who talks to herself (link)
| |
You may need to look around, some people may try to act grown up, but are kiddish and crazy on the inside. You could also join some after school activities. You would get to know other people better, and maybe get to see them on the inside. Just remember to always be you and someone will like you for who you really are! I believe you can make a wonderful friend if you put your mind on it. Hope my advice helped. :)

Drink lots of water, and eat lots if protein. Make sure you are eating 3 meals per day plus 2 snacks. Also make sure you try to work out every day. Finally don't binge yourself, don't overeat, it can cause some searious problems in the future. Hope my advice helped! :)

Hi, I'm a 16 year old girl. I've been singing ever since I was 5 and it's always been my dream to make it big someday. I made a music video the other day and I'm not trying to brag but I got lots of likes on it and great compliments too. Someone suggested that I try out for American Idol. They're supposed to be at my states capital this August. I want to try out so bad but I know my stage fright would completely fry my chances. I have suffered from anxiety since I was 9. I'm currently not on medication for it but I'm supposed to have an appointment with my doctor soon. I'm not trying to put out a sob story or anything, I just have enough trouble as it is. My dad thinks the medication would help me, he also doesn't want me to rush things but like I said I want this so bad. It means everything to me. What should I do? How can I get over stage fright by then?
By the way, this would NOT be my first time singing on stage. Advice is much appreciated. Thank you. (link)
| |
Before you go on stage, take some deep breathes and try to calm yourself down. Try to avoid thinking about the worst of the situation. Read or sing a lot so you can get used to your voice ( if not already ). Finally give up trying to be perfect, nobody's perfect, be who you are! I know you can do it, I really believe in you! Hope my advice helped! :)

I am a little embarrassed to ask my mum I'm 12 years old a male but how do I ask my mum to buy me new underpants? (link)
| |
You don't have to be embarrassed, your mother has bought you new underpants since you were little. She won't laugh at you, or tell all your friends. Just go up to her and ask. I know you can do it! Hope my advice helped! :)
