For the past couple of years as a teenager I have been given some ridiculous Xmas and Birthday gifts (my birthday is in December) from family members, like easy bake ovens, kiddy beauty sets and other umentionable gifts.I turn 18 the monday after this one and I feel like it is time to do something about this.Because I don't want to be 24 and get a Barbie as a gift you know??

Do you have any suggestions of what I could do?

Your best friend is thinking about ending your friendship with him after the fact you decided you wanted to become a teacher. Your friend has never liked people who were or are teachers and refuses to ever associate with people that are.

What would you say to this friends of yours and how would you feel?

How can they expect respect from students, parents, the school board, or etc, if they themselves don't respect them as well? Respect works on a two way street. You respect them and they respect you.

My husband and I were invited to this Christmas party that one of his good friends and his fiance organized. There is going to ba an "ugliest Christmas sweater competition", so that means that we have to find a Christmas sweater. In the invitation, they also ask their guests to bring a dish and their own liquor. They said they will provide beer and wine.
Isn't this a bit too much to ask if YOU are organizing a party in your own home?

I talk too much, I even irritate myself. How can I stop talking about myself so much and listen to others, prompt others to talk too? I mostly am like this only around people I know well. Thanks.

A lot of times, there are perfectly good tables "everywhere" else. Normally these are not restaurants that take reservations. So if I get seated at a table in the back, yet still pass up all the other tables throughout the restaurant that are the same seating arrangement, what is the REAL story?

I am embarrassed to death. Last week I had to leave school early to go to a dental appointment. I was in the dentist office building all done with the appointment and I was taking the elevator down and then it stopped and this girl from school got on. She just finished an appointment with another doctor or dentist I think. She smiled and said hi. So there were just two of us on the elevator. Unfortunately, my digestive system chose that very momement to release some rather unpleasant-smelling gas. It was powerful-nasty and thre is no way she didn't notice. When the elevator stopped in the lobby she ran out without saying a word.

The next day at school, I walked into my social studies class and everyone was holding there noses and laughing. I went home sick and stayed home Friday too. My mom wants me to go back to school on Monday - but I just can't. Do you think I should transfer to another school where they dont' know what I did?

I spot an interesting question lead -- then when I open it to respond there is nothing else -- no details or it doesn't make enough sense to answer. This is a complete waste of time for those of us that really enjoy answering questions. People are leaving out info that is absolutely necessary to be able to answer. Example: Take this question for example -- What if I wrote "Why do you people do this?" and then I didn't write any follow up. You would have no idea what "THIS" is. It is so annoying that people take the time to pose a questions but don't give any relevant details. Please don't do this!!!! I don't even care if the rest of it is totally stupid -- just give all the details!!!! Thank you for my rant. I'm guessing that the people who are guilty of this won't be the ones answering this. Give it all up question-makers!!!

My all of my friends parents just happen to hate me. I think its because I don't have good manners. I'm really lound around my friends and its hard to be quite and proper. And I'm 13 and I don't really know what to talk about when I'm with them with their parents, I talk about guys but then they just think that its too young to be talking and saying guys are cute.

thanks

Do people really do it when people ask them to send their regards to somebody or said to say hi. Or it is just something people say.
