I NEED HELP ON OW TO CHANGE WHAT TO DO TO GET MY SUPLY BAG, OR CHEER UP TEACHER . AVICE PLEASE!!CAUSE IM ABOUT TO HAVE A BREAK DOWN. ILL LOVE FOR YOUR ADVICE. MY AGE 14 IF THAT HELPS

Answer 1

I think the fact you plagiarized is the most important problem here. Forget about the calculators for goodness sakes. Do your friends know you plagiarized the sciencefair project? If they do, perhaps they are disappointed with your behaviour and trying to reevaluate their friendship with you. Is there one friend who you particularly value and would like to sit down and talk about your feelings with? If so, try to do that, but don't dwell on it, you have more important things to do, like looking into your own health and well being.
If you are getting straight A's then there is no reason to plagiarize. My advice to you is to write a letter to your teacher or whomever you may have disappointed, owning up to what you did and telling them exactly why it was wrong.
Also, if you are feeling down and this is causing you to neglect your homework or assignments, in addition to forgetting things and losing concentration, you could be depressed. I suggest you call your family doctor and make an appointment to talk with him or her. Have you spoken with your parents about this? At least the feelings of them pressuring you? Can you have your mom or dad go with you to the doctor? Lastly, if that is not feasable, is there any other adult in your life, an aunt or your teacher, whom you can trust to speak with about your sadness and maybe help you out with your supply bag? If so, I suggest you do that. Most of the time adults can help.

Answer 2

U don't seem dumb at all. U r 14 yrs. old and certainly know that people depend on u being a little bit more responsible yet u r acting like an elementary school child who has to be led by the hand at all times. U were entrusted with being a bit more mature and r failing becuz u want to. Ur friends see u for who u really r and that's why they r dissing u, cuz u r a kid still. U r definitely very smart and know how to spell plagiarism so I also suppose u know that it means to steal or take ownership of something u have not done. The consequences r coming so take them like a 14 yr. old and cry. U shamed ur self and ur parents and ur school not to mention ur friends.

Answer 3

Well, it does sound like your little world is caving in. Let's see--where to start? I think that I would go to the principal and lay the whole thing on him about your stuff getting stolen. Usually they are pretty sympathetic and will understand. Sort of like going over your teacher's head to the top person. They usually get things done a lot quicker. Once that is resolved, forget the friend stuff. They are not really your friends if they dis you are they? NO. Create your own little world, be your own best friend, know what is good for you and do it. Do not let others make you become someone you aren't. Just be honest and do the best you can and you will always know the truth about stuff.

Answer 4

First, stop beating yourself up. It's tough being 14. Second, quit the online stuff for a while - concentrate on school and grades. Stop doing stuff like this. It's not "bad luck" that you were caught copying someone else's work. It's your fault - the sooner you own up to the fact that you could use some help, the sooner you will be able to get your life back on track. Go to the school counselor and talk to him/her about your problems. Work out a plan for a day to day improvement of your life. Get an alarm clock. Go to bed at a decent hour.

And stay off the computer!

Answer 5

Ok honey here it is.....life gets better. I have a 13 year old neice and she thinks the world is out to get her and all that mess. Trust me your teenage years are some of the hardest to get through, but guess what....you will make it through. I promise. As far as your bag goes just let your parents know and they should help you get the stuff back. Good for you on the straight A's. Let up on the games with the internet VERY BIG DISTRACTION! Not good to make so many reasons to neglect your education. That is the most important thing. Need anymore advice email me [e-mail]
As far as your friends go......girls are cruel, tell them how you feel and if they don't seem to care then kick them to the curb you deserve better.

Answer 6

Well about your stolen stuff justb try to tell the person that is in charge of the science fair and im sure your parents will understand.With your friends try to talk to them about it and if they don't come through for you just think thats is their loss and hold your head up high.If your parents are expecting more from you tell them your already making straight A's and bring out all the good things about you and tell them you can't handle more.You are growing up and I know for a fact that 14 is like one of the hardest ages to go through.Well I hope that my advice helps,if not just hang in there.

Answer 7

Life at this age can be tough...it can be...especially on the social front.

However, as far as cheating/plagerizing.....you dug that hole and now you have to lay in it, to be blunt.

A lot of it is about responsibility and with a lot of pressures in high school, it is rough, but you can do it. You've got to get off the internet if it is effecting school. YOU CAN DO IT.


Theft happens....kids can really suck and be cruel to each other, but the best thing you could've done is report the incident to the school office or the police. That doesn't mean you are going to get your things back (chances of that could be slim), but at least you are being responsible about it and they have record on hand if other things start missing from other kids (showing a streak of thefts, patterns, etc). And by all means, somehow get your name etched into things that have value (calculator, etc).

You can do it....hang in there.....just start getting tough on yourself!!!

Answer 8

As bad as it seems now, just know all of this will pass. Only you know what you need to do. Make a list of each challenge and then write down what you feel you need to do to make it right. This will make things seem less jumbled and hopeless. You may not be able to do anything about the stolen items, but you can change the way you react. Good luck sweetheart.

Answer 9

One thing that i have learned from life is that it can always get worse, that is alot worse. When I was in High school I really looked up to this one girl that was very smart got good grades, was very nice, and had alot of friends. Including me, One day we were talking and she told me how she was addicted to drugs, how her grades were slipping, and her friends were all getting mad at her because she was doing drugs. So I found out that my life was going a little better than hers. I was not on drugs and still had great grades. Even though I got kicked out of my house when I was 17 I realized that life could always get worse!
