but ok I have to make a confession cause i have no other choice cause times running out. look it didnt happen to my friend, it happend to me, and I'm sorry for saying it was my friend but i was scared but i haven't really got any straight forward answers... look the bottom line is my mom had neva done anything like that b4 and hasnt since, and it was two years ago but i was afraid to tell anyone cause it had only happend once, and i was afraid i would get in trouble. I swear on my life that this isnt a joke, and my teacher does care, she has stopped me after class a few times and asked if everything is alright and on friday when i was at an indesicion to tell her or not she noticed something was up and like sat down beside me and was like "is everything alright?" and of coarse i said i was fine, cause i wasnt sure

if i shud tell her. I really dont know what to do and i cant bring counsellers or child services into it cause it would ruin everything and no one would suspect my mom of doing that cause shes a good person and everyone knows that, and its not like i look like somem ones hit me especiall cause i have ok clothes and i have an ipod and all that stuff. I just want to tell her and i just want her to listen, i dont want anything to happen i just wan to get it out of my system and just tell someone. and i said time is running out cause tomorrow is my last class with her then i have exams. :( that is really sad cause shes a great teacher, and we dont talk alot but we talk a fair bit and if there were one adult i would tell it would be her especially cause i kno shes dealt with this sorta thing b4. do u think she would honor my wishes of just staying quiet or do u think she will tell someone and try and get me to go to guidance, or call child services?

plz look i'm over my head here guys i really dont know what to do should i tell her or not? or since it just happend once and it was two years ago shud i forget about it?

Answer 1

OHH DEAR NOW I UNDERSTAND
YOU NEED TO TALK TO SOME ONE
TELL AN ADULT THAT WILL LISTEN

I KNOW THE FEELING
I HAVE BEEN THERE

MY MOTHER USE TO ABUSE ME AS A CHILD
EVERYTIME SHE HAD AN ARGUMENT WITH MY DAD, SHE WOULD TAKE IT OUT ON ME. AND HIT ME, TROW PLATES AT ME, SMASH MY HEAD IN TO A WALL, OR HIT MY MOUTH WITH HER FOOT FOR LAUGHING SO MUCH WITH MY BROTHER.

WHEN I TURN 18 I LEFT AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. IT TOOK ME 10 YRS TO EVERN TALK TO HER AGAIN, BUT THIS WAS BECAUSE I GOT TO TALK TO A COUNSELOR. ITS HAS BEEN HARD. SOME TIMES SHE ACTS ALL CRAZY AGAIN I JUST LEAVE HER ALONE FOR A WHILE.

SOME TIMES I DONT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HER. BUT AM AN ADULT NOW, SO WHAT I DO IS LEAVE HER AND GIVE HER THE SPACE SHE NEEDS TO COOL OFF. THE LAST TIME SHE WENT NUTS ON ME, I WAS AWAY FOR 8 MONTHS. EVERYTIME I CALLED HER I COULD TELL SHE WAS IN ONE OF HER MOODS, SO I THOUGHT IS HER CHOICE NOT MINE.

GOOD LUCK.

Answer 2

you should tell the teacher and inform her it was 2yrs ago..she will ask if your mom has done anything since and you can honestly say "no" but it will help you to get it offf your chest and I know you want that ....As whether or not the teacher will say anything to any authorities....I ' m not sure(it was 2yrs ago).
Do what is right for you~*
