The night before last I asked her to call a christian pricate school and ask them could I enroll. I have been in home schooling on the computer for almost 2 years now and sadly i have no friends =[. Well, at the begginging of the school year, I had to finish my 7th grade work. Well, now I'm behind and they are going to kick me out on the 12th because I am 36 assignments behind. 3 weeks ago the teacher told me not to worry about it, but 2 weeks ago they told me I had to have 45 assignments done. My mom has been screaming at me, because I told her, whats the point in going to turtoring tommorrow when I am going to be kicked out anyways. She was like " im taking your Jamie Foxx tickets back" I just snapped and screamed back at her " fine, take them back!" She just keeps on making me feel like im never going to be anything =[ She said " maybe your better off in a detention home" and I screamed back " Maybe I am" and she was like " call your teacher tommorrow and tell her that" more below

I feel for you. Unfortunatly you are suffering for your past behavior and that is sad but it is a fact and I know you are not having much fun and you may not for a long time. I hate it for you. If I were you I would try my best to get as much as possible done and then talk to the teacher. Something sounds wrong, like them saying not to worry and now they are kicking you out, sounds like something was left out there. Like did you do any of the work, talk to anyone in between, try to see how you could get some help with the work? I think you need to stop yelling, your mom has had enough of you if what you say is true. She is feeling like you are causing her grief, I know mu youngest daughter had to be taken out of school and home schooled because she went wild and would leave school and go get drunk and all kinds of stuff. I blame the school and myself partially for it but, I couldn't control her and they didn't care and didn't call me when she left and I was more worried for her life than anything else. So, we spent the money and she eventually got her GED and that was many yrs. ago. She's 27 and is a different person now. So, I can relate to you and her. She is tired and worn out and has no patience and you have to either do it or leave, she is spending money for both home school and this Christian School too. She has a right to be upset. I wish you luck and I pray you will be able to turn this around for you and your mom. God Bless you both.

My understanding of home schooling is that your parent is the teacher. Maybe you were in an options program where they allowed you to stay at home provided you complete certain assignments. You did not say what has prevented you from completing those assignments. Do you work? Take care of family members? If I were your mom, I'm not sure I would want to possibly pay for private school if you couldn't do any better with the assignments that you already had. The best thing to resolve any argument with your mom (I am one) is a heartfelt apology and promise to try, and try again. As you continue on the growing up process, you're going to have to learn to take responsibility for what you do, because the day will come when blaming your mom or anyone else won't put food on your table.

Trust me, it could be worse. And how are you doing so badly?? I had homeschooling for a looonng time, and it honestly isn't as hard as you're making it sound. Everyone fights with either their dad or mom at one point, mine constantly tells me about every mistake I have made, and tells me about how I should be like my "perfect" brother, and that she wishes I would die, or that I was never born, or sometimes that I should just "Play in the road"... and I honestly know what it's like to have no friends, I used to only have one friend, and she died, I was left alone, and very depressed. Now I have NO friends, I just switched to a puplic school a few months ago, and everything is tumbling down, but think, Life could be worse, honestly, no matter how bad yo have it now, someone else, doesn't matter where, has it worse than you.
Hope things get better, my only advice, study and work really hard, you'll have plenty of time to make friends in life. Good luck.

This situation is difficult. Christian private school is a good option, but so is homeschooling. So I am sure if you sit & discuss the options like an adult with your mother, you and her will be able to come to an agreement about what is best for your future. (Just because it is "your" furture, doesn't mean that she is incapable of make a good decision for you.)
As far as not getting out of the house, it is very important to have friends, & learn to live on this very social planet Earth. But it seems your mother doesn't trust you? And from what you said about your past can you blame her? I am probably pissing you off right now! But BOTH of you need to cange your attidtudes & behavior. Yelling is not the answer, even if you are angry... And you can't blame her by saying " But she makes me really mad!!!" You are in control of you (isn't that waht you want) You are choosing to scream & yell... Her too! If you are behind in school work, no matter what, I believe taking the tickets back is the right thing to do...Unless you can prove to her you are making changes... NOT "will" make changes, "ARE" making changes. How can you make changes in your life... (And apparantly you do get out of the house...Jamie Foxx?) Most people who blame everyone but themselves for the problems in their life are the ones who will always have problems. The change has to start with you.

Being alone and suck alot, tell your mom you want to be out with people and be out in the real world and live and be a normal teenager and make friends, tell her homeschooling isnt working out anymore for you, find a happy place for you and come to some kind of grounds.

Its too long to read but I did read the part of you and your mom getting in a fight
I don't know what you or her did wrong
I read the last sentence saying "how can I fix is"
I don't know what went down but Apologize even if it may not be your fault.
