My whole life:((


Question Posted Monday August 28 2006, 8:31 pm

Okay, I'm 13/f
I love school for two reasons- my friends and getting away from my mom. Lately my mom had her tooth puolled and she's been whining and groaning and yelling at me and being nice to my brother. I feel like a burden, That's why I hate it at home. ShouldI get professional help w/ my problems or ask my friends because they help me with alot like I help them. I'm closer to them than I am my whole family. I've told my one of my Boy BFF's who understands (and who I like but thats different) me, but he swore not o tell and now I'm thinking I should tell this teacher who everyone loves including me, but I'm not sure soooo.... what do you think?

Its pretty comon to be closer to your friends than you are with your own family.

You need to talk to someone. Your friends are probably the best bet, because at this age, kids and parents are always fighting, and your friends might be going through somewhat of the same thing.

Teachers are good too, but they might go all "adult" on your ass. Thats all fine and dandy but sometimes if you just want to bitch and complain about your mom, your friends will probably listen better than teachers..

Teachers would probably say "try and make peace with your mom, she loves you, try and get along with her", and then they will probably lecture you about why mothers are like that and such.

I think its funner to just bitch and complain to friends. They will understand more than teachers because they are probably going through the same thing.

yeah, a teacher or a guidance counselor could be a good person to talk to. but make sure you really trust them and everything. but you have to be careful, though. cause sometimes if teachers or guidance counselors think it's really bad, they could try talking to the mother or visting the house or something.


so, unless you really want to, just try talking to your friends too. it seems they're really helpful, and they're trustworthy, and they're your age, so they can obviously relate more with stuff happening and everything.


that kind of how it is with me. with my grandparents and stuff, i'll get yelled at if i don't talk to them or hug them or something, whereas my brother NEVER visits them or if he does something he might not get in trouble. it's weird, isn't it? but what i do to just get away is, i just sit in my room, light some candles, play music or read a book or just sit back and watch tv. sometimes i even lock the door if i don't want anybody coming in. and if you ever want to release feelings, and nobody there to talk t, just write to yourself and keep it somewhere special so nobody else can read it.


i hope i helped. <3

well i think it can be really good to talk to a teacher my teacher in gr.6 helped me when my mom was going kinda strange my whole life crashed down on me and she coould see that so she helped i knew she would always be there she made me feel like it was going to be ok.I am very happyi confided in her,so i suggest if it feels right do it but dont do it if its just because he is cool.If you feel like you shouldnt talk to your friends the will be there for you because some teachers dont know where to draw the line he may show up at home or tell socail services.So i want you think about it but i would do it because he will still help alot right?i am not sure if this even made sense i because i think i have an idea on what you are going through so i really want to help alot if you want to talk i am here for you my email is mizztalk_alot@hotmail.com
