Adolescent - May 2007

ok so im 17 i graduated high school at 16 and college at 16 also...(not a university) a 8 month program....as a dental asst. but i have been taking care of my siblings for some 3 years and i have been getting called for interviews but i let them down because i feel bad just leaving and not taking care of my siblings i told my mom last month that i would give her a week to get a babysitter and she hasnt to this day...but i think its wrong to just leave her and she might lose her job and than it would be my fault but i have to get a job sooner or later....and i have a car so i need money to get insurance...pay gas etc....im scared to tell her that i got this job because she might flip out and make me not get it but its not about jobs anymore its a career so do you think it would be wrong if i got this job or should i stay and watch the siblings??....

Its my niece, she is 15 going on 25. Lately she has been ignoring her mum and going out without permission. On occasions she has gone to gigs and is coming back home at 3am etc. Once one of her friends called her and gave a message to one of her siblings, asking my niece to "not forget the vodka".

Just to give you an overall picture, she is mature for her age, she looks older than 15 because of her height and shape. She has a good heart, but she is quite a moaner and always thinks she is being hard-done by. She has an older sister at university, and i suspect she wants to enjoy the same freedoms as her sis.

Her mum seems to have given up disciplining her. Of course i will speak to her mum before going ahead to get mums permission but i know she wants my help cos she asked for help with this before

I want my niece to confide in me, but i dont want her to think that i am condoning her behaviour.

How do i approach this?

(we are of Nigerian origin, not sure if helps)!!

Ok I have a friend who is 15. She has a boyfriend who is a senior in highschool. She is a freshman. I saw her yesterday and she was really upset almost crying. She told me that they had sex yesterday and the condom broke. She isn't on the pill. Her period ended 3 days ago. I told her to get a pregnancy test, but she won't listen to me. She is afraid that her mom will kill her. She told me that if she is pregnant, she is going to run away, have the baby and come back after it's born. I told her that it would be better to find out if she is pregnant and tell her mom instead of her running away and the police finding her 4 months pregnant. She won't listen to me! What can I do? I'm really worried about her. She's one of my best friends.

Hello, I am 14 and I am asking you how you think of what my future will be like, and how you think of it.

Me and my older brother who is 24, are going to join the army when I turn 17. Me and him share everything together, he is not any normal 24 year old.

He brought me into weight lifting 5 months ago, and I must train 6 days a week. When I turn 17 I will join the Canadian armed forces with him and after 3 years, making 45000$ canadian a year, go to collage. After you finish your session in the army you get free collage education.

We will both go to collage, and become cops. I already know how long everything will take, and the classes we must take in collage. By the time I am 24, and he is around 30, 31 we will become cops.

I will not change what I am going to do, its what I want, My dad was in Vietnam war, and my Grandad was in ww2.

What do you think about my overall of what I will do with my life? I will not change my mind.

I have a 12 year old daughter who is always getting in to my husband and my buisness. She found my sex toy that I use when my husband have sex. I caught her with it in her room. I wasn't really mad, I new she was just curious. She said she had been using it for about 4 days now. And she washes before and after she uses it. I haven't told my husband(I don't think I will.) If I hide it again I'm sure she'll just find it. Is there a way to buy a teen a sex toy? I don't see any harm in it. I don't want her to use mine, I don't want her to catch anything. Is their a way to possibly make our own?
By the way, she hasn't started her period and she already knows about sex and what not to do. She's looked porn up once, so I'm guessing she already knows about a sex toy.

I'm 14, 8 months ago I went through a bad phase. Bad crowd, I got disrespectful, fough ta alot w/ my lil bro. I regretted and apologized sincerely, but I got a harsh punsihment and for some months especially my mom like tortured me emotionally, showing she didn't trust me though I had apologized and showed that had been just a bad phase, They didn't act like parents, showed they didn't love me. I got very sad and depressed, even has suicide thoughts. Fortunately some people , especially my grandma helped me, showed trust and understood me. My grandma invited me to live/ her. My parents didn't agree, want to rebuild our relationship, but we insisted so much and my grandma has business w/ my dad, so they ended up agreeing, though very grudgingly. I'm excited, In July I'll star a new life w/ someone who loves me, living w/ my partents became a pain, sad and hurtful memories. I intend to stay w/ her until I have a job. Is this a good decision?

She's always been very rebellious about this(since she was 12). But she's older now, and much more 'grown'. I've explained the consequences of not wearing one, such as sagging breasts, and people(especially young males) getting the wrong idea about her.
I never thought it would boil down to punishment but it seems that's all that's left.
Any ideas?

! am 14 years old. In school I act very immaturely. Teachers and the other kids tell me to grow up and act more mature. why?

Why can't I be a kid and have fun?

I have my whole life to be boring and act mature. Childhood isn't for trying to act like an adult.
