Adolescent - August 2007

I stopped growing when I was 10 (I'm 23 now). My doctor said I imagined it and that I would have still been growing after, even though I've been measuring myself at the same height every year, so noo I did not imagine it.

Anyway, I know that the normal age for girls to stop growing is around 16-18, so why did I stop so early?

Up until I was 14 years old I had a dad. Im 16 now and don't need him. Well, for 14 years he did anything and everything to hurt me. I still have the marks on my body from the abuse I suffered. Including several scars and burns. Well, I need to know how to get over this abuse. My mom never knew about it so im not just going to bring it up. Plus, she would just say that I wanted attention. I really want to forget about everything but I dont know how.

I have to write a speech on abortion and I have been looking for some websites to provide the history as well as some background info on it. Also Im not sure if when writing a speech, you are supposed to include your personal beliefs? I personally am Pro-life but am not trying to offend anyone in my speech by pushing my beliefs on them . Although, I was looking for one sort of touching excerpt to put in my paper. For example, I read once where it said " if you had two deaf children and two blind, would you abort your next child?" and if you said yes, then you would have just aborted beethoven": or something like that. I appreciate any help. Thanks♥♥♥

I have a classmate who wants to take me to the hairsalon to change my hairstyle or something. However I'm not sure if I should go with her becuz 1.I have some self image issues and I'm afraid to spend money at the salon and feel like it was a waste of time and $ cuz I'll probably still hate the way I look. (A haircut doesn't usually make me feel better about myself)

2.I'm afraid that I will look stupid infront of my other classmates becuz it will look like I have no voice of my own and no self identity (because I'll be letting someone else convince me to change my hairstyle)

At the same time I do want to go with her because I need more friends and this will be the perfect opportunity to gain a new friend. So what shoud I do??? Will I look stupid if I let her convince me to change my hairstyle??

I'm 13. I'm in 8th grade at a TINY private school. All the girls here in 8th grade are skinny, blonde, and their hair is always straight and long and boring and they all wear A&F, AE, etc. All the girls have the same taste in music, and out of about 16 girls, 10 of them are cheerleaders.
I'm 5'4'' and I'm a little overweight, but I have curves. I have SHORT red hair, my style is punk gothicish and I'm into metal, and rock. I've already been labeled a lesbian and feminist. There is only one girl I've really connected with and I only have one class with her.
I have really low self-esteem. Being around all these girls that turn their nose up at me isn't helping. I feel like an alien. I don't know what to do!
Here's a couple pics of me, in case you're wondering.

....is driving me crazy. one day, she's happy, helps out around the house, gets her homework/chores done without being told, is nice to her younger siblings and plays with them, actually listens to me and we talk and actually have some pretty good deep deep down conversations. then, the next day it's like every body is out to get her, she fights till the end about doing her homework, screams and fights with the other kids, and we get into yelling matches, she doesn't listen to me at all. the next day, all happy and smiles. i mean, what's going on? I'm a single father and teenager girls are something new to me (i only had brothers growing up and didn't date till after high school), but still is there anything i can do that will get her and me on the same page? thanks.

I'm 13 and having a sleepover with my friend (she's about 12 and a half) tomorrow night.
I've known her for only a few months... does anyone have some suggestions for things we could do for fun at the sleepover (that don't include makeup or swimming)?

Thank you!

During school about two-three days ago I was leaking abolic fluid really bad . I got rushed to the hospital and they said I wasn't dialated but I could go any day now. so, they sent me home to enduce labor and I was to go back if anything happened. Well, my mother is taking control over everything and she called my school and said I was returning Tuesday if I don't have this kid by than. I don't feel comfertable or safe returning but she insists i'm fine.. She won't let me make this decision on my own.. I rather be at home where the doctor is on call 24/7. When can I take medical leave from school, do I need my mom's permission and how do I go about doing that?. what do u guys think would be best?

She is under 18, we are not married, she took the emergency contriceptive and is now 4 days late, we took a test and it came up possitive, she wont tell her parents, because they will kick her out. The thought of being teenage parents is pretty horrible but so it the thought of termination of the pregnancy.

I'm not sure how to react or what to do, so far i've just settled her down abit and told her we will get another test and have a look tomorrow to make sure its certain, If she wants to keep it or adopt it, i said i will support her, but termination would I suppose leave her life intact apart from the mental side, but i dont have the money to just hand over, then there is the moral side to termination. Anyway any help is appreciated.

He does pretty much everything he is asked of and has all he needs but his friends get anything they want. I don't want to spoil him but I also don't want him feeling like that one kid who can't do stuff 'cause he doesn't have the means. What is a good amount assuming that I pay for all major expenses and outings? He needs money to go to movies, mall, arcade and the such...

What is the point in going to college and drinking crazy and getting way drunk every weekend? I went to college and din't do that stuff. I just don't see how getting drunk and throwing up is a form of a good time. Why do these people do this? It does not even look cool when I see my old high school classmates in pictures with beer bongs and stuff. WHy is this cool? And why does it happen over and over. How is this THAT great?
