different Posted Monday January 17 2005, 1:19 pm
My family believes very strongly about lots of things. One of those things is legal marajuana. They think if somebody in the USA wants to smoke pot, let them. Pretty much everybody in my family smokes pot except for me. I'm 15 years old. I think they're wrong. I don't think pot should be legal because it makes people do stupid things. But so does beer and other alchaholic drinks. But they're legal. So I think maybe they should not allow alchahol or pot. I'd like to point this out to my family but I don't want lectures. What should I do?

This is really long but I really need help on this Posted Sunday January 16 2005, 6:30 pm
I have a bit of a big decision here and I was hoping for opinions/advice about it if you'd be so kind. My parents split up a long time ago over the summer acutally and I had said I didnt want to be around her soon to be husband because of the fact he took mom away from us although it takes two. And his son got in trouble for molestation of his little sister so I said I didn't want to be around him either. So I live with my father. But lately, I've been seeing my mom after not seeing her for a long time. We've been getting close again. The other night she took me to her house to see my cat that she had taken but her boyfriend and his son were there. And my court I have said I don't want to be around them but it isn't official until Ma...

Annoyed Posted Saturday January 15 2005, 1:03 am
im 15 and offered to watch my brothers instead of going out with my friends so my parents can go out. Its now 1:00 AM and they still have not returned. Im annoyed because its not fair that they think they can stay out til all hours of the night while i sat home on a friday night for THEM. If they were planning on staying out this late they should have told me. Honestly i have no idea what their out doing putzing around about..Am i wrong for being mad? How should i express how im annoyed at them? i understan that they are adults and a child has no right to yell and act like their parent..but im just annoyed with the lack of consideration i guess

At home Posted Friday January 14 2005, 7:41 pm
At home sometimes I use a nasty answer and my mom takes it the wrong way when I dont mean to. Therefore, she does not trust me as much and thinks Im disrepectful and doesnt let me go many places. What can I do to fix this without having to tell her what happens in school and shit because I know she WILL NEVER understand...

I didn't know what subject to put this in Posted Friday January 14 2005, 5:48 pm
Ok...well I met this guy online and we're really good friends now and somehow he got my cell phone number. Well one night he called me and we talked on the phone for a while but it was like a free call because i have free long distance and free after 9. So does anyone know if it still shows up on my phone bill? Because my parents are all like "don't talk to people on the internet you don't know" and they would freak and want to know who I'm talking to in other states and junk. So what should I tell them if it does show up on the bill?

feeling a little guilty? Posted Wednesday January 12 2005, 9:11 pm
I've noticed my mom acting very quiet and different today. I think that shes feeling depressed. This isnt accually a thought, its obvious. I saw that she got books from the library about depression.
Anyways, Im feeling quilty myself because I feel that being the 'teenager' I havent put enough effort towards the house. I dont think thats its menopause because she's only 40. but I dontknow. Also my brother is having a baby, its not that hes too young. But maybe that its scaring her that shes going to become a grandma?
Should I be feeling Guilty? It just scares me because I dont want my mom to be depressed..
