Q: Hi All,
I am thinking about taking classes to become a dog trainer. I have a lot of hands on experience already, but I have the feeling that a certification will be important. Eventually I'd like to start my own business. There is obviously a shortage of qualified trainers and many people own dogs. So I see a need for this.
So what do you think, would you rather attend classes given by a certified instructor or a self taught person?
I can buy many books on the subject and it will be cheaper than the tuition for a coorespondence course.
How about personal consultations in the home? If you could afford it wouldn't that be better than a class with 20 people and their dogs?

personally, my mom has always taken our dogs to a dog obiendence class(we got shelties from a nice breeder..always..) called 'total recall'..i would consider applying there and/or ask how they get to those teaching positions. I think self teaching yourself is good, but just as in most careers nowadays you almost have to have a degree/certificate to get a good job/good pay or even be hired today. And for me i like having the classes with other dogs..it provides the distractions to overcome and such..and its nice to talk to others who are in the same situation and can help or just talk to them.

Well, if you go to victorias secret in any mall they have people to size you..and dont worry its over the clothes..but it can help and im sure they should have a size small enough..but for me, when i was your age..to get used to bras and until i really needed one i started out with a sports bra..very small one..you might wanna try that to begin with until you can fill out a regular one(if you try a regular one on a feel you dont fit yet). Its nothing to be ashamed of..i didnt fully bloom til almost over 18yrs! started around 13 like you did :-)

Q: hi i've found a bunch of RANDOM unwanted clothes in my closet (a denim jacket, a cheap renasance dress costume, silver sequin gaucho pants thing, a mini tennis skirt type thing(gray).....) what are some good ideas of what i could do with these?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, coming from experience..when i went through my closet and found used, but awesome things that other people i know would love-i went online and sold them on EBAY and it was great! i sold some things together, like a few tank tops all sized the same or shorts all the same size and some separate like old cell phone covers etc..but its easy to do..very easy...if you want to know step by step how to do this let me know and ill write you more indepth :-) Also, if you are unsure of what to sell the item for, search in ebay for the item you want to sell(ie-if youre selling a jean skirt..look up 'jean skirt' and see what price others are selling it for now..people like a price better than the competitor)..hope this helps!

Q: okay, well my friend got fingered for the first time the other day and now she's been worrying about it. she think's that she is pregnant but i'm telling her that she can't be because it's totally impossible because she didn't have sex or anything. and she hasn't gotten her period and she's 2weeks late. i told her that i think it's because she doesn't have a regular period, because she hasn't had it for over 2years and normally that's when it starts getting regular. her boyfriend only fingered her, she didn't do anything to him so i'm really not sure what to tell her except that she isn't pregnant. what do you guys think?
PS. when she got fingered after she bled alittle, and i told her that maybe he scratched her or something because you never know.

it is normal to bleed alittle(i was once told it was called breaking your cherry) I guess theres something inside a woman that usually only once this happens and it breaks and bleeds alittle. But also, there is no possible way she could be pregnant unless he went inside her with his dick..no wayyy..she must be young enough that the periods arent regular and dont worry..if shes sure theres no way she had sex than dont worry..fingering is just fine..tell her not to worry and her periods will be more regular eventually and if not a birth control pill would help it to be(also would help acne and cramps that you get with periods and eventually when shes sexual would prevent pregnancy too-i started 3 yrs before i had sex on the pill for acne and was glad..then i didnt have to tell my mom about it, just stayed on it :-) just some advice. Hope it helps.

Q: How much should I charge per kid for babysitting? Any suggestions, comments? This is a main concern for me right now. Thanks in advance.
|

Well, When i was babysitting like 7 years ago(i now nanny for an autistic boy but thats different, paid thru state) and i charged about 5 dollars an hour i think..but nowadays i would charge atleast minimum wage 7$/hr(min wage is i think 6.25 or somehtin) and babysitting is hard work, sometimes. If theres more than one kid i would charge extra. Like, maybe 2 or 3$ more per hour extra per kid maybe. Or if theyre easy and you know itll be easy then just keep it that low. And if its a toddler, maybe charge more. Hope this helps!! (I put a flyer out when i was babysitting, you should think of it! only in the areas you coudl bike to if you cant drive yet though, and im assuming you cant-flyers helped me alot:-)

Q: When it comes to listening, I'm the worst. If I don't want to hear what you're saying, or even if I do but I'm bored, I will tune you out. Not on purpose either (well it might be on purpose but I'm not aware of it). I won't even realize that I'm tuning you out until you're done talking.
There have been many times where my friends tell me stories for like 15 min. and when they're done I ask, "Wait...what did you just say?" You can imagine how offended and upset people get.
I need help. If I try to pay attention to something I don't want to pay attention to, I'll concentrate on trying to pay attention and why I should pay attention so then I'm not paying attention to what you're saying I'm concentrating on why I should. That's confusing. Any help?

Well, first of all..you might have a mild cause of ADD(attention deficit disorder)..theres probably no way you do, but maybe...also, i have a friend just like that and he literally tunes me out for ahwile like you said and notices after and always keeps aksing what i said, soemtimes 3 times b4 he listens to it enough to comprehend what im saying..but ive just gotten used to it and like him for who he is..its just him..i cant explain it and neither can he..so i dont think theres much else you can really do but to maybe practice focusing more every time..remember int he begining to look into their eyes the whole time and try to figure out what theyre sayin so you can comment back..this also sorta reminds me of this autistic 7yr old boy i watch(kinda like a nanny job) he has that problem too..hes always in 'his own world' but thats part of autism..you just need patience to get him back to earth..maybe tell you friends to tap your shoulders or say your name if they notice you not payin attention so that you snap bak to it..and the eye thing is a big thing..for the boy i watch if he isnt looking at my eyes he rarely hears/understands what i say..hope this helps.

Q: hi, im almost 16 and ive never been kissed and never had a boyfriend...is this as bad as it seems?...and not jus girls points of veiw plz. ive had chances but never made anything of them...am i that big of a loser, i think that im attractive and im smart and a good person so whats wrong?will rate high!!!!all 5's

You are NOT a loser. I didnt kiss a guy til i was almost 17 and didnt do stuff more than kissing a guy til 18 almost 19. So dont worry, you are not the only one and besides you sound confident with yourself and that is hot to a guy. They will soon find out what they are missing. But coming from me, if you are shy(just like many boys out there) it just takes alittle longer..try asking someone out yourself for a dance or a casual date thing. Thats what i did to get my first two dates for dances at school. It doesnt have to be them asking you out. And soon after that you can easily get a first kiss!!

Q: female 16
Im barely a size B and am not very happy with that.
How do I know if my boobs have stopped growing and will stay this size forever?
How do I know if they are still growing?
Any way to get implants at this age?
Any way to make them appear bigger (No stuffing please :)
Please and Thank You.

You will continue to grow probably. Personally I didnt stop growing until 19 I think. And up until I was happy with my appearance of my chest I used a liquid filled bra and it worked really well because no one knew the difference and it helped until I could fill out a normal bra myself. If you don't like that idea try using padded bras from victorias secret(very nice bras), some of them even have extra padding you can either take out or leave in but with it in you look awesomely curvacious. I wouldnt advise getting implants because when you eventually become a mother someday they will get alot bigger and you wont like how big they get after both of those experiences (plus its painful i hear!).

Q: Today I'm going over to my friends house and I'm doing her hair for a dance. She always wants me to straighten her hair because I do it right lol.
Anyways, her hair is thick and wavy and it stays straight for about an hour or so.
My question: What tips can you give me so her hair can stay straight. I really don't have time to go out and buy products, so I need tips.
Thanks so much and I rate with feedback. :]

I went through some cosmetology school a few years ago and i liked using professional products called Kenra thermal styling spray with a curling iron or straightener to smooth or curl hair for long periods of time. You spray it on FIRST then curl or smooth with a straightener or curling iron and it stays very well(until it gets wet). Also, there is kits out there like at walgreens you can buy to permanently straighten your hair, or you can also do that at a hairsalon(its like a perm but without the curlers). Hope this helps!!

Q: I've just started to make love with my boyfriend, and I have a vague recollection from my sex education classes at school that when you become sexually active you should have a check-up, examination etc. Is this the case? Thanks!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

First of all, I think you should figure out your boyfriends past sexlife (if you don't already know it), did he have sex with anyone other than you? If yes, than for sure get a checkup. Also, depending on your age, Ive heard that at 18 its usually a good idea to start having checkups and I would get birth control and use condoms(yes do both!) This is a safe way to make sure that what you're doing won't lead to disaster, just fun. Hope this helps!

I have done that before; went out with an older man (in my case) that had basically been a setup from a friend and the day after i met him we went out officially. This did not work well for me because like you said it makes things awkward. We only lasted 2 months because it didnt get more comfortable. I think you should talk to him about this and say I want to be more with you, but right now i just need to get to know the real you better, the friend you. Then I can figure out if we are meant to be together or atleast see what youre all about. Hope this helps! Let me know how it works out.

I am 21 yrs old and am in a longterm relationship(3&1/2 yrs now) so I can speak of things to do with love, life and anything to do with teen issues(sex too). I first went to college for cosmetology, so i know quite a bit about hair questions, but changed my mind and am now going for generals(then marketing I'm thinking). During the afternoons I work with an Autistic boy, so I also know alot about Autism. I have dated a few guys b4 this longterm relationship too, so I do know quite a bit about teens/dating/friendships. Also, I love animals(I have a sheltie and a calico cat and my sister owns a horse). Feel free to ask me whats on your mind today and I will do my best to help you out!
