Answer 1

I feel with my fingers. Your problem is too hard for me to solve sorry.

Answer 2

I would feel like I really got delt the short end of the stick....BUT....

I would feel like I have an important obligation to take care of that parent as much as humanly possible while they're still around and not complain about what they can't do. How much would you miss them if they died?

You working hard to get what you want is an excellent way to build character. Imagine what a good person you'll become by having to do things the hard way.

I understand you feel like no one is listening to you...this could be because you're not looking at the whole picture. You can't only think about yourself or what other people have that you don't. I know you don't want to hear that, but if your parent can't give you the things you want, then you should get a job & obtain them yourself...and also try and help out your parent at the same time so that you can BOTH live better lives.

Effectively this means you sort of become the parent in a diminished capacity. Be grateful for all that they CAN do for you, and try to make up for the rest yourself.

If you need a good winter coat & nice clothes, etc....try the Salvation Army or Brown Elephant stores. You might have to dig through a lot, but you could find some nice stuff.

Just reading your message, I want to help you so badly. What city do you live in?? If you need a shoulder to cry on, please email me and I will talk with you.

Answer 3

I'm sorry about all of these things that are possibly happening to you.

Here's some honest advice: Go to a counselor to ask for some advice. Because a lot of people are in your situation, and I'd like to help you, but I don't think there is much you can do. You don't get to pick family. Be happy you are under roof and have food to eat, and at least have clothes, no matter how bad they are. Cell phones and nice clothes, etc., aren't necessarily what you need. You should try to wonder how your parent or gaurdian feels.

Good luck! I hope I helped!

Answer 4

As soon as I got Done feeling sorry for myself(and you should its really not a good situation) I would realize that the only person who can change it is me, or in this case you. Get a Job and make some new friends possibly join a church or a club that shares your interest tell people what your situatiion is. I warn you that a lot of people may make furn of you but a few will understand and do whatever they can to help you. You would really be suprised how some people will react when you open up to them. The best way to make a friend is to be one.

Answer 5

i would feel a bit discouraged but i would not let that get the best of me nor side track me of the fact that this old poor person is caring enough to raise me the best they can with what they got and what they know. Yes, it is sad sometimes that we can not pick our parents, but it is good that we can begin to make the difference for ourselves starting now. Get good grades, get a work permit and be ready to get on when you turn 18. Then give yourself the material stuff you need and as far as the now no one understanding y0u thing, go to your school counselor and set yoursefl up for some one on one counseling so you can have an outlet to help vent your concerns. good luck and dont focus on the downs so much. be a part of the soulution instead of part of the problem.:)

Answer 6

You seem to be in a bad situation made worse by a poor attitude. I see lots of "poor me" and see many wants (cell phone, ipod). You are not alone; I'm sure you know there are those who have less than you. Work on getting your needs like heat and a winter coat. I know how I feel. I too am lonely, have one family member, lack heat, etc., but daily I count my blessings. I refuse to be a victim, I am a survivor. I do not believe in luck, good or bad. It is all life and life happens. No situation remains the same, time passes and it's up to us to make the most of it.

Answer 7

Wow that really sucks. But I grew up in a similar situation. I was homeless at 18, my mom had no food, I had no good clothes, and I had a landlord at 19 pull a gun on me so I know how it is for you. But you can make it by doing well in school and college. I am now an engineer with a Bachelors degree in mechanical engineering. You just have to focus on school and get some type of part-time job when you are old enough.

Answer 8

I would feel grateful that I had at least one parent who cared for me. There are lots of people who are abused and abandoned.
Most everyone goes through rough times, but things do get better.
Wealth should not be measured in materialistic things.
Be thankful you have your health. I have a rich friend who is dying from a heart problem. I would rather be poor and healthy than to be in her shoes.

Answer 9

i would try to be geatful for the things that i do have because many people have a lot less and look for more understanding and intelligent freinds even if just online and maybe an adult that i trusted to ask advice; i would keep it in mind that things aren't always going to be so difficult; there's always room for improvement
you sound like a very intelligent person and i expect that despite how difficult it is for you right now, you will do well in the future
you have to keep a possitive attitude, it is possible
