Adolescent - March 2007

Besides yelling & physical violence.. :)

Do you use some type of chore chart, allowance, hourly pay, bribery whatever!

What types of punishments do you hand out when the rules are not followed?

I have two teens who are lazy to put it mildly. It has to be a battle everyday to get chores done. I'm talking washing dishes, their laundry, cleaning rooms, cleaning their bathroom, litterbox and feeding the dogs. Those are the basics. One would rather stay grounded and do nothing than do a few chores, even says so. The other only does them if she is going to lose a privelage or she is getting a reward.

Any suggestions? Be nice.

ok, my gf was crying and I asked her why she was crying but she wouldn't tell me. after a little concerned question she said that if she told me what it was it would break my heart. she never told me what it was, but said that she wasn't goin' break up with me. So my question is what (girls, guys i dun rly care) what would be so important not to tell you bf (gf) but that you think would break there heart?

My ex Norrin is being an ***. I was sitting with my friend Chris and Chris proceeds to tell me my ex was talking about me at a mutual friends house. He was like I was her boyfriend and I didnt even get to touch her chest! I have a large chest and I got pissed off that he would disrespect me like that by talking about my chest. We're only 15. I went down to talk to him and hes like sorry. I'm like no your not. Hes like your right im not. Im really really pissed. The incident happened today during lunch. He talked about them over the weekend but I found out during lunch. He had been really nice today too. We were talking and we hugged once. Then I find out what he said. I'm really pissed off. What should I do?

Do you believe kids with cell phones are spoiled rotten brats??? Someone asked a cell phone question and someone made that ludicrous/ignorant/judgmental statement.

I think if a child is responsible and knows only to use the phone in emergencies then he or she ca hae one as long as it is prepaid and under 30 bucks.Cell phones can be used to save lifes or contact your parents or police if you are in trouble and there is o phone around, here is a good example.

They had a case on Americas Most Wanted where two 16 year old girls were snatched at gunpoint and while the man who snatched them ad raped them was taking a pee in the bushes not far from the van in the middle of the woods one of the girls quickly messaged her mother with her cell phone telling her what was happening, the girl was able to message her mom where they were and the police were called and arrived within 30 minutes and both girls survived.

My friend told me this poem and I can only remember the first four lines and it is really getting on my nerves because I can't find the rest of the poem. I saw it on forwardgarden.com once, but now I can't find it.

There first four lines are:
Kissing is a habit.
******** is a game.
Guys get all the pleasure,
Girls get all the pain...

What is the rest?

I'm 18 and just moved several hundred miles away to live with my friend and his family. My parents moved me all of this country and this is where I felt most comfortable, so after graduation I moved back, and have been living here for a month now. I just got a job and will be starting at the end of next week (mcdonalds). The problem is, this move is what I thought I wanted, but now I just feel very confused in a depressed kind of way. I'm not sure whether to bite the bullet and go back home, or stick it out and hope for things to get better. I thought the privacy and freedom would be great, but its not all its cracked up to be. Right now I'm staying at my friends house, cleaning up the kitchen, the house, tending to the dog... I'm hoping to feel better once I get working, but it's tough, I'll have to walk a mile and a half to work every morning. I didn't expect to want to go home this bad. Its not like they treated me horrible. There's a question in all this rambling, please find it.

hi... my names meghan and I'm 14. my dad just told me TODAY that he was married before he married my mom. He was 23 at the time. I am really shocked, and I'm upset that this was kept a secret from me for soo long! My older sister & brother knew, so do all my relatives... how could they not tell me? I wish they were less secretive and now I'm really upset because I can't picture my dad with anyone else
