i love the answers that you guys are giving me. theres also the problem that last year the same thing happen. im and idiot becuase i keep doing it. running away from my problems is so inmature. but for the moment it feels good to run away from them. im a very sensitive person. i get hurt over anything. and i guess the teachers are tired because they think im just a screw up. so i dont even matter to them anymore. i have said that before to them , like in the begining of this year i said to them . im changing, im going to do good this year all of my problems are solved and now my head its in school" and then at the end of first semester i started to screw up again! i guess that makes the teachers think " she is a screw up, and she tryes to lie to us" im not lying i want to try but i guess im a little screwed up in the head that i run away form my problems again.

Go to school, and do your best at trying to ignore the bad things. Do not be afraid to talk to your school counselor. Tell him/her how you feel, they always have good advice. They also can talk to the teachers about how you feel and want to change.
I have had counselors talk to me about issues that are similar to yours, and I have done my best to help these students get caught up.
Be patient because changes take time.
Try to make new friends, ones that will be good role models, and eventually you will feel comfortable talking to them and they can help you with your problems.

This is a very tough question! I think that the most important thing you can do right now is go to school no matter what. You are never going to be able to catch up unless you start NOW, start fixing the problem before it gets worse. Try explaining to your teachers that you have really been having problems but now you are ready to start fresh and that you are trying really hard to bring up your grades and improve your attendence. I think that many teachers are insulted that you have skipped class because they feel like you are not appreciative of their services as your teacher and mentor. I would suggest apologizing to your teachers and asking if they could help. The friends you hang out with while you are skipping school, are probably good friends, however perhaps it's time to start spending more time with friends your own age. This way you can get extra help from classmates and they can help you catch up. They are more sympathetic to where you are in your life right now, considering you are all in the same grade facing similar stresses. This common cause could be really beneficial.
Turning around this pattern of skipping school is going to be hard and stressful, but it will definately be worth it. You have taken a great first step in realizing that it is a problem and making the decision to fix it. Now its time to act on that decision. Good luck, I hope all goes well for you!

First is another mind-set. Despair - even a foul temper can alter the way you percieve your picks and the sphere circular you. At the same time it appears like usual experience, little or no on this world is everlasting. It can be only when we suppose things is just not going to ever alternate that we preserve ourselves again from possibilities. Comply with Winston Churchill's suggestion and "never discontinue". Don't allow yourself to feel that you simply just can not or will not do anything. Make a 5 year or 2 year or perhaps a 1 year plan of the place you need to be and use anything resources are made to be had to reach that intention. When the 1 12 months or something time interval you decide upon comes - do a self-assessment to inspire your self. Maintain lists of matters you've gotten been equipped to achieve although that it is whatever thing small like, signed as much as be taught more about this tuition, or that loan, or whatever furnish. Without difficulty get the whole competencies any one provides you with about culinary arts and maintain to your self-discipline. The simplest component is to get hired as a cook - they'll rent you without capabilities in some eating locations and then work your way up. Their are numerous potentialities on this existence, nevertheless attaining ambitions takes the blend of time and persistence. Also, to search out someone if workable who can be of encouragement to you as you possibly working your procedure up.

The teachers are making a point of letting you know the cinsequences of your own actions, and probably in a way that stresses their exhaustion with a student who comes and goes. The number one first thing you must do to start getting your life in order is to get used to hearing that and accept it as the truth. That doesn't mean that you have to let it ruin your day. You just have to be honest enough with yourself to tell yourself that, "Yes, they are right. It is no one's fault that I wasn't here for that information. No one forced me not to come to school. I am in charge of my actions, and as an grown up, I must accept responsibility for my actions and try to do better." Untill you can do that you are just going to continue the cycle and have a much different life than you could have had as a responsible adult. That it in a nut shell. You cannot control what other people do or say, but you can learn to control how you react to it. If someone wants to say something negative to you, you have two choices. One you could be all offended and quit what you are doing to get away from it. Or, two, you can tell yourself that you are there to do a job and be a better person,and if you continue to do that, people will take notice and you will feel better about yourself. Good luck. I have been down your path. It lead to much worse things in my life than missing school. I am now 31 and still paying the consequences everyday for running away from my problems in the past.
I just took a look at what the other people before me have said. Listen to what we say, we know what we are talking about.

Stefani,
The main thing i think is to let the teachers know u mean business..if they r that block headed ask ur parents for tutors..i know that means u can't control everything but life can't be controlled..get some of ur power away by asking for help...my son is in the same situation...he is so defeated by us i guess and the system...just wish he would come to us understanding we r there for him not against him...keep going forward it will work out!!! Hope all goes well if u need support..i don't think u need advice (maybe some) but support is what u need...u can do it!!!!!!!! Paula paulasmithjean@yahoo.com

I feel your pain. Perhaps you should consider talking with your guidance counselor and your parents. Also, if your teachers are unwilling ask some classmates. They know exactly what has been going on and they are way easier to talk to. Most importantly do not become discouraged. It is really noble of you to want to change and have faith that you will. Remember the school year is not over yet.

Well, kid
I think you are gonna have to face reality. First lots of people in your situation have turned around fine.
0 Work with small goals in mind. Step by step.
1 One starting from now, stop caring about what people reminding you of your past say. These people are negative people and should understand you have learned from your past. Sadly, that takes time.
2 Find positive people to hang around. These are people who build up.
3. Don't give up
4 Don't give up
and lastly
5 Don't give up
Negative people only acknowledge succes after the fact!!!
YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT THE FUTURE YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT.
You should feel great. You clearly learnt from your mistakes.

Are you ready to start working again? Prove that to yourself and your teachers. Go to school. Do the work. Whenever the teacher says "You should've come to school" say that you realize you've made a mistake and you want to change that. Say it respectfully, though. Tell them you really want to turn things around. Good luck!

First is a added approach. melancholy - even a undesirable temper can adjust the type you percieve your options and the international around you. collectively as apparently like formed sense, little or no in this international is everlasting. that's simplest as quickly as we sense issues ought to no longer ever replace that we keep ourselves returned from possibilities. adjust to Winston Churchill's advice and "on no account cease". do no longer permit your self to sense which you purely can no longer or won't do something.
