My mom and I have always been close but I'm fourteen now and we're still close but we get into fights a lot and it really bothers me. She's a preschool teacher so she gets summers off with me so we have a lot of time together. It's just, I hate fighting with her because, in her eyes, I'm always wrong. I mean, she starts to assume things and then when I tell her that that isn't true she get's even madder and saying "Well you said it once" or "Just drop it". It really really makes me mad. To everyone around me, my life is perfect. I get told I'm pretty and have the perfect body all the time, my family is "perfect", I'm not too popular, I have great friends...but no one sees behind the scenes. In reality, I'm really self-conscience and sad. When I'm around people, I'm the happy girl everyone thinks I am, but in my mind I'm sad. The fights take a toll on me. The way my friends treat me take a toll on me. I just don't know what to do. I really am happy on most aspects of my life, but I don't see why my mom has to fight with me. I don't think I deserve it. She doesn't know how it affects me and I'm not going to tell her 'cause then she'll get mad and say I'm selfish and think I'm always right, which I know I'm not. She's really cool a lot of the time but now we fight more and more and it's really starting to bother me. What can I do to help myself be happy and not let the fights get to me so much? What can I do when we fight? I want to be happy but these fights hurt.

Please help. Usually I give good advice to other people, but I don't know what to do.

OMg its like your living my life. I felt the exact same way. My mom is a preschool teacher too and like we used to have the same fights. So i was so sick of it and i was always in trouble but I sat down and talked to my mom with my dad in the room and my mom and i talked some things out but she got mad and that time my dad saw her and he agreed it wasnt just me so he talked to her and she came and apolgized to me and told me some of the things that had been bothring her butshe said she shouldnt have taken them out on me and blah blah blah it was really sappy but we dont fight nearly as much. Plus it wasnt just her, i had to realize it was me too. but ur mom can be a really good friend if you like her to be.So talk with your parents and fast because i know how annoying it can be!!o well hope it helped and good luck


so there is some one im guessing from my school that made up a screen name and she goes on it and doesnt tell people who she is but she has like everyone's screen name from my grade and she just AIM's us telling us like you whore slut bitch ...blah blah blah, i dont pay attention to it cause i know its just some low life hater messing arround, but yesterday she made up a screen-name pretending to be another girl and her profile was like i like guys w/ big dicks if you wanna have sex call ..... and she aimed me and was like you slut blah blah so it got me really mad & i told the real girl about it and she got super upset.... so anyway how we can find out who this person is? thanks lotz (link)
you cant figure it out thats the great thing about the internet no one know anyone elses idnetity. (actually in this case that would be a bad thing)But anyway u might wanna consider telling some parents who can go to the pricipal about it and then that way the whole school will know about it and by that time that person will prbably be too humiilated to do it again.


heyy ya well im f/14 n wight about 112, i dont think im fat or nun like dat but i would like to tighten my stomach. i would love to have a lil six pack or sum like it hehe. well what can i do and about how long will it take? (link)
OMG you are so not fat, but six packs take alot of work, at least for me anyway i dont know how much muscle you already have. But of corse do cruches and situps but remeber to work on other muscles at he same time. When i was trying to get my six pack my coach told me its lke impossible to have stomach muscles w/o having like arm muscle or legmuscle to so domt just do cunches but sdo puchups and run!
PS gymnastics help with sixpacks plus it tones other muscles a the same time. Cuz ur doing like cartwheels, roundoffs and backbends!


i hate myself. i'm extremely self-conscious. i have zero self-esteem. are there any ways to start feeling better about my self, or to boost my confidence? (link)
ok i kno this might sound dumb but trust me i used to be the shyest most self consious person when i was younger and now im freshman class vice president. Now many people will tell you to write down a list of things you lke about yourself because my mom told me that a hundred times. Wel you can do that if you like but what i did was start coomplimnting others around you who are self conscious and then in turn theyd compliment me so we'd make each other feel better. I know it may seem weird or whatever but just tryit it works becasue that ways everybody is hleping everybody feel better about themselves.


Hey. What's up?

I Have an amazing boyfriend. I love him. We have been together since Feb. 2nd, 2004 (for the people trying to figure that out, its been 1 year,6months and 9 days) I Love Him, like I said. However, sometimes I think that I may like other guys. Where I work there are 2 guys who I
"like" but I wouldn't go out with them if they asked me. I want to stay with my boyfriend. I think about these other guys sometimes tho.

Any ways or tips to stop these thoughts?

I am more then sure that I am going to stay with my boyfriend. I wouldn't ever date these other guys.

How can I deal with the thoughts?

Is this normal?

(Sophmore, Female)

-Kels- (link)
ok this is soo normal its not even funny. This has happened to all my friends.Its just the fact that your a sophmore with ragging hormones which makes it hard to commit to a guy for a long time. What one friend did was think about what makes her bf so special and did the other guys have that special quality too? Really it all came down to talking to her boyfriend and they talked it out and realzed they needed to become a whole lot closer bcause they wee becoming bored of their relationship.Sad to say though one of my friends ended up breaking up with ther bf and now their best of friens b/c after a while that intial spark isnt there anymore./So talk to your bf and see if mayb u nedd to speed up ur relationship of maybe end it!


alright well my hair is getting dried and my ends are splitting mostly because i straighten it like everyday. i use this gel stuff for when i get out of the shower so it can protect my hair from getting damaged but im guessing its not working... does anyone know of anything to use for my hair..? (link)
ok well if your like me and trying to grow ur hair out and dont want to cut your spit ends off then try Garnier Frutics Sleek and Shine conditioner. Just put it on your split ends though not all of your hair!!!!


how do i Lose Weight Safely? dont be mean about it! i am 150 pounds and i am only 14.

help (link)
ok first of all you need to include how tall u are it really matters if you're like 5"8 and are 14 years old and weigh 150lbs you cant compare yourself to your friend who may be 90 lbs but like 5"1. because thats what happened to me. personally i dont think you're fat but my advice to you is drink lots of water and run really thats about all you need. i dont know about all the special diets but i do know, water, exercising and sleep help alot!


I know this might not sound like that big of a deal but it is for me!

Well my mom and me have been fighting a lot lately..........almost like every day. But its never my fault like i would say " Mom there's no more laundry detergent." the she would blow up and say " Of course we dont because you have to use so much" and then she would start yelling at me bacause i ask for so much stuff and that she has no money to spend and i hate! I really dont want to hear about her problems then when i say that i don't want to hear it then she starts yelling at me again! please help me and tell me what to do! im going to start school on tuesday, and i dont want this to mess with my head so please help ! (link)
Sounds kind of like my mom and me sometimes. Whenever she was going through her period or a client at work is bothering her little things would bother her. So i set down nad had a talk with her and it worked for a while but then it happend agin so i asked my Dad to say smthng to her. After that she apologized and now we barely fight. So talk to both of ur parents they can help!!
