I hate the place i live in and i always wished i could do something to get out of it and live in New york again. I'm only thirteen and I need a job that can pay me lots of money like writing a book or something. Help PLEASE! (link)
Dude! You gotta go to school to become a writer. You can't just go apply to be one. Make it your dream to become a writer or what ever you want to be, to help you get back to New York. But in the meantime chill and stay in school!


When did sex become so bad? I get that teenagers shouldn't just sleep around and pregnancy & STDs are a problem. But why do parents go to great lengths to make their teens feel guilty about wanting and/or having sex? If its so natural and if everyone feels the need at some point, shouldn't it be talked about more openly and embraced in a better manner?

I'm 16, thinking about having sex for the first time, but I keep finding notes from my parents saying, "Absolutely no sex. Wait until your married."

I'm not religious, but I'm not a bad person. (All A's, no drinking or drugs) So why do my parents make me feel awful for even thinking about it?

Ugh. Thanks.
I just want opinions and how other people's parents react. (link)
Some parents don't know how to talk about the 'S' word with their kids. I've always hated the "because I said so" response which sounds like what your parents are doing. Give them a break, they're only human and unfortunately some parents just can't handle talking about it with their kids. Believe me, there are millions of parents just like yours who just can't talk about it so they use other tactics. Sex isn't a bad thing, however, it does come with responsiblities and ultimately it will be your choice to make. Thinking about sex, being curious about it certainly doesn't make you a bad person, you sound like a great teen. But having sex should not be about 'the need', then it becomes just a primal act. When you have sex for the first time, it should be with someone special, someone you love and who loves you and cares about you.
