plastic surgery
I really want to get a chin implant and have the bridge of my nose shaved down a little bit but my mom is completely against it because she thinks I'm changing the way God made me. I've been really self-concious my whole life and I would think that my mom would want me to feel as good as I can about myself but she just won't budge, no matter what I tell her.
I really need advice. I know that I can get plastic surgery when I'm 18 without parental consent but I'd like to have my mom on my side with this. Is there anything I can say or do to get my mom to get over her fear of me getting cosmetic surgery?

Although I agree with your mother, I think there may be a way to not pursuade her into agreeing with you, but to help her understand why you want to commit to plastic surgery.
You need you sit down and have a civil conversation with her. Tell her flat out why you want to have the surgery done...whether it's to make you feel better about yourself (which in turn gives you confidence and can change your social life) and that's what's most important to you right now.
I'm sorry I can't offer much advice, but basically just try and have her see both sides of this situation. Another important thing is for YOU to see both sides...listen to what your mother has to say as well.
Hope this helps.
