You have an A in Phys Ed, but are not good at sports?
Your life does not suck. Your life is what you make it. YOU make decisions to lead your life where you want it to go. Seems to me you have a good life. You have a family who loves you. You have a roof over your head and you are not starving. You do not have health issues, you do not have any addictions. When I feel crappy about my life, I think of how much worse it could be. Go to your local shelter and volunteer. Take a drive down the poverty stricken area of your town. YOU have to see the positive side of things. Not the negative. Seems like the only problems you have are the petty problems that every other teenager faces. Wake up tomorow and be thankful you are waking up. Be thankful you are getting an eductaion. Embrace your culture and appreciate yourself and your ability to learn a new culture and language. Bythankful you have running water, have legs, have free choice.

You hang in there honey, it will get better I promise you this. At 16 you don't no if you are coming or going it is a very confusing time for you.Everyone your age is easily lead astray by their so called friends. And about your parents just because they are your parents does not mean they no what is best for you,sure they mean well. You have a lot on your mind both bad and good so you just take one day at a time and you will make it through just like the rest of us did.
I remember I hated being 16 because you feel it is a nothing age it's like you are to old to do this and your to young to do that.Teenage years are the pits but your 20's is when the world comes alive for you,like I said just hang in there take it one day at a time if you have to and try to tune out your family the ones you don't care for and before you no it things will start to look different to you in a good way. Good Luck !

yes. it may suck now, but there is so much you aren't looking at. highschool is but a temporary moment in a full life. and highschool sucked for most of us.
you will:
-graduate
-find a close friend that you will have your whole life
-find a girl who understands you as a person
-marry her
-have children. and you will not make the same mistake of judgement (disappointment) on them as your parents.
-find a job that will provide you the resources to make your own decisions
-and live love hurt cry scream yell dance make love learn just like all of us will
sometimes it's hard to see the forrest because the trees are in the way. you just need to open your eyes and really see how beautiful it is that we are all even here.
don't let what is different about you make you separate. let it make you special. you have what so many of us don't have: a strong culture to fall back on, a strong belief system and beautiful traditions.
when others start to tell you how bad you are, you must keep a smile inside. one that shines no matter what. let it smile at those who try to bring you down.
good luck.

Life is what you make of it. You are still young and should cheerish each day while you are young.
I know that being a teenager is hard, but you can not let these things get you down; because if you do it will only cause you more grief and problems in the future.
If you still feel this ways please seek professional help
