hey. im ashley and im 13 years old [going into 8th] i havent been through everything but i can help you with a lot!
advice
my mom is kinda a control freak...
She won't let me shop with anyone but her. .not my dad, any of my friends.. or anyone.
She has to even be in the same department with me...
I only have a pair of jeans and two pairs of (very very ugly) capris that don't fit right.. so I really need to go shopping. She always says that she's too busy or that i don't need anything. I keep explaining to her that I need to go shopping because I am lacking in things to wear.. and she always makes up excuses. I'm also afraid that if we go shopping that she won't let me wear what I want to wear (low rise jeans and form-fitting baby t's) because she wants me to wear things from the girls section still. And when we went into aeropostale (once) she made me buy everything a size too big so I pray that it will shrink. I just don't want to look like i'm too poor to buy clothes.
HELP ME!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!
13/f (if it helps size 1/3 and shirts small)
try to explain to your mom how you feel about things..tell her you need more clothing and that you feel like you can not make any of your own decisions..maybe go online and pick out some different clothes that are inexpensive,print it out and let her know what you are thinking... anymore questions im here! -ashley
i really really rally really liek this guy. he is sooo hot he has brown hair and blue eyes (my perfect combo) and im crazy over him. he likes me but he told me best friend that he just cant ask me out becasue of family, sports, and school. WHAT ABOUT ME?! why wont he ask me out..am i just a "nothing" to him..i mean he said he liked me..why hasnt he asked me out?!?!?!?!
okay well first try and get to know him better [talk to him more] and stuff like that...maybe thats the reason your not before his family school and sports..if he knowes you more than you will probably have a better chance with him.... also maybe he just has a lot going on right now, try and give him some time! and if that doesnt really work then maybe he isnt the right guy for you!! i mean if he doesnt have time for his girlfriend why would you want to be with a guy like that!! looks dont always matter! -ashley
OMGG I realllllly wanna go to the Fall Out Boy concert and my sister just told me that she was going...FOR FREE..How can I get my mom/dad to bring me?????
PLEASE HELP I'LL RATE 5''S FOR almost ANYTHING!!
THANKS IN ADVACNE
deffinately DO NOT SAY ITS NOT FAIR!! that is what will make them not want to take you!! try acting really really responsible around the house and after like a week or so ask them once and tell them... i really would like to go to the concert and i was wondering if i was allowed..please think about it and then let them think, but DO NOT keep asking them because thats just annoying to them and they will want to say no!! -ashley
My little brother can be extremely annoying. I dont want to tell him to go away, but somtimes i lose my temper. I hate yelling but he just deserves it so much!!!! How do i get my mom to relize that he's the monstor not me and to start dishing out the punishment to the right person????
He has chased me around with knives, hit me, refused to let me eat, and done countless other things! He really hurts my feelings.
What do i do?
I rate 5's!

okay well everyone knowes little sibblings can be really annoying so first when your little brother isn't around talk to you parents and tell them how you feel about this and if that doesnt work when he comes to chase you or bother you try and distract him with things he likes like hey i think your favorite tv show is on or something like that and you could also try threating to kiss him cause i know boys HATE that (well younger ones at least lol) -ashley
this year my boobs like ... grew..and i have cup bras .. but there not very padded. people say that im flat, but where padded bras. its not true!!!!! i wish people could just accept that i have blossomed
not flat anymore...
well not everyone is always going to accept you and thats just part of life.. i would just ignore it and move on..i mean who cares if people think you wear a padded bra they will eventually realize that you are not flat and sometimes people might just say that to make you feel bad so dont worry about it... -ashley
im corfortable with myself up until my stomach, it has like rolls. but my weight is the skinny weight for my height, but im not skinny. its really messed up, so lossing weight wouldnt be good. ive been hoping id grow so id thin out, but then ill just have stomach and be taller. i dont know what to do.
i mean im corfortable with myself but when i look in mirrors, the belly fat is all i see.
so you see, i dont want to lose weight cuz id be way under weight, but i want the belly fat to go away
any suggestions?
light weight but heavy stomach
this is absolutely NOTHING to worry about! this is a very easy problem to solve.. you just have baby fat on your stomach area and it is very easy to get rid of without going on a diet or something like that... everyday when you get up in the morning like before you go to school do 100 situps if this is hard for you, you might want to start with 50. this will help you develop abbs and a tight stomach leaving no kind of fat around your stomach. you could also lay on your back and do an exercise where you touch your elbow to the opposite knee which also really helps...but DO NOT overwork yourself after time you will see GREAT results. -ashley
ive been wanting a cell phone for so long. and dont think i havent tried getting one. ive had the money and saved it, i even offered to pay for one. i wrote a whole 1 page essay on why i wanted one, how i used it, and if i did something wrong they could take it away. im on computer like 24'7 so i told them it would occupy my time and i wouldnt be on as much. but NOTHING has worked.
is there anything else left to try!?

okay well a lot of kids tend to have this problem one thing you can do is instead of reminding them of it[which is just annoying]you can start acting VERY responsible around the house like cleaning up after yourself and doing all your chores and that might make them relize that hey she is really responsible and i think that now we can trust her with a phone and hopefully that will work but NEVER keep bothering them about it because that will just want them to keep on putting it off. -ashley
well i feel fat and i want loose weight and ppl think im fine and i disagree i wanted pills but i refuse to take em what shoudli do
okay well first of all your probably not fat at all.. but if you think you are i can help! dont take pills or crap like that..it doesnt work! if you really feel committed to this everyday trying to stay healthy than try and do about 100 sit ups a day then you can eat normal meals but instead of eating like chips or cookies in between try celery[which has no fat or calories] or carrots or even an apple or banana! NEVER go on a low carb diet or anything like that cause carbs and protien are the two most important things for anyone!!! -ashley
Hi I have this friend who went out with my ex a week after we mutully broke up. She's nice and all but I don't like how she would go out with him after I did! SHould I forgive her or not?
okay well if you are jealous of your friend than it means that your not fully over you ex so its not her fault at all.. i mean you should be happy that your friend found someone...its not a forgive or not thing its all about you! you are just jealous of your friend and its not her fault at all so dont drag her into it... & if you still like your ex than you shouldnt have broken up with him.. im sorry to sound mean but i am just trying to tell you the truth. -ashley
so i have a low confindence level.its like am afraid of popular kids in my school and i kind of want to be one .but i dont think i belong with tem .i like to watch them and know wats going on in their lives.what is wrong here.
okay first of all who cares about the "popular kids" just because they are popular doesnt mean that they are really happy and everything... i mean it might seem it to you but most of the time they arent.... why should you have a low confidence level if you are "popular" i mean so what.. just because a lot of people know who they are doesnt mean that you should be scared of them..i mean try and find friends who like the same things as you and that will make you happy i mean the popular kids are usually just sluts that everyone knowes and you dont want to be like that..the main idea is dont try to be something you aren't and just accept yourself and your friends cause im sure your a great friend
okay so ashley i really like tis kid and he never will notice me haha ashley i am just doing this cause i wanna see what u will say haha bff i love you but i also love you know who and i really need help cause its really hard not to think about him what do i do??
ummm..i think i know who this is lol but dont ever think you dont have a chance with someone..honestly he might be thinking about you but just acting otherwise. to get "this guy" to notice you try to talk to him more and if at all possible hang out with him with your friends than he will realize how great you are and then who knowes what could happen. i mean you dont have to stop thinking about him but just try to take my advice and maybe you guys will end up together! :) -ashley
my grandma recently past away, & i love my grandpa i just don't know what to talk to him about can someone give me ideas?
im really sorry about what happened! i no its hard and the same thing happened with my grandma.. but eventhough you think that you will hurt your grandfathers feelings by talking about it.. you will actually make him feel better.. how? well by letting him know that you can talk about it with him is sort of a comforting thing because he knowes he can tell someone and let the pain out other than keeping it in which is much worse...at first this might sound like a bad idea but giving him almost a shoulder to lean on is so much better than having him keep it inside... again im sorry about the loss
-ashley
I feel like all my friends are growing up so much faster than me.. period wise and crap. People tell me I'm lucky I don't have it.. but the doctor says I won't get it til I'm 14 or 15! Please don't give me the advice 'everyones different' cus im sick of it. grrrr
okay well im the same way as you.. truthfully i sometimes feel like everyone is so much older & everyone has bigger boobs & all that crap but i have just realized that not getting your period & crap is a lot easier than having it. i mean its really not something you want. & maybe it can get annoying to be like flat or whatever but to make myself feel "older" i have tried just wearing make up & i have also tried to act older with like responsiblilities with my family.... to tell you the truth i am not at all excited about getting me period its not something i am looking forward to and its not something you should be looking foward to either.. i mean you dont want that kind of responsiblility and if it makes you feel better ask one of your closer friends with their period if its a pain cause im sure they will tell you they would rather NOT have it!! -ashley
i really like this guy, and he is older than me, and i know ill never date him, i mean never! but he is all i think about, i know alot about him and im constantly finding out more. Ive never personally met him but i do see him and hear him but we have never formally met. People have told me to stop thinking about him and focus on people i have a chance with, but its hard he seems so perfect
so pretty much, how do i keep my mind off him??
try not to focus on this guy i mean if its like a movie star its fine to have posters in your room of him but try and focus on getting ready for school and school work and if that doesnt work try to get your self involved in maybe a sport and i mean the best way is to find someone your own age that you feel has the same characteristics as this guy... i hope i helped!
I want to go on a low carb diet. What foods should I avoid eating and what foods are good for me to eat on my diet? Thanks to anyone who answers.
DO NOT GO ON A LOW CARD DIET! its really not a good idea..i went to a soccer camp and it had a nutrition class one day and carbs actually happen to be the best things for you! if you are really concious about your body and staying healthy than for a snack instead of eating a piece of cake or cookies grab a piece of celery it has no fat in it at all and it is very healthy! you also NEED carbs..they are what keeps you moving they are your main energy source and make sure to eat meats and stuff cause that is protien and your body needs that! Going on a diet doesn't mean you cant eat normal foods it just about not eating the little unhealthy snacks in the middle...with your main meals try eating dark green lettuce [with dinner] and any other time try and eat like a yogurt or a piece of fruit [with lunch or breakfast] this should REALLY HELP! i hope i helped you!
