I think I am going to tell my Mom, today, that when I was 12 and 13 I looked at a few adult, fictional stories. I have good grades, great friends, and I have always had good morals. What I did when I was 12, and 13 was the worst thing I will probably ever do in my whole life. The past week I have been extremely upset, and crying about what I did. Should I tell her, or not? I have a wonderful relationship with my Mom, (I always have) and I think she will understand my confused feelings. However on the other hand I am worried she will never think of me the same way again. I feel like I need to tell her, but I am not sure how. I am so confused... I don't want her to think I am of me as a weirdo. My Mom means everything to me.

If I tell her about what I did will this only make things worse for me, or better? I have never lied to my Mom about anything except about what I did about 2-3 years ago when I was 12, and 13.

Your mom can't provide you with forgiveness. The guilty feelings you are having won't be alleviated by telling your mother (though you can decide on that part later). You need to resolve this issue between you and God FIRST. It is a simple matter of asking for forgiveness. After that, you need to forgive YOURSELF. We all make mistakes, kiddo. You made one - that is part of life. The good news, is that you realize it was a mistake, and you're not planning to go down that path again. After you have made your peace with God, and with yourself about the matter - then it will be time to think about whether you want to share it with Mom.
Hang in there,

lol, oh man.. I don't mean to laugh to make you feel bad.. but if THAT is all you have to worry about in your life.
wow.. you've got it good lol
1: She probably knew at the time and was asking to see how you would react.. but has forgotten about it by now.
2: When you are older and have more life experience.. you'll see just how trivial this is in the grand scope of things.
3: Just relax and move on with your life.. you seem like a good kid so don't fret it. If you feel you need to talk to her about it.. go ahead.. she won't mind and might educate you on a few other things if she hasn't already.

honestly i dnt thnk its a big deal. everyone has had some interest in physical contact like that. just because u looked a some adult stories dosnt mean ur a bad person or anything like that. im sure ur mom would understand, ul probably have one of "the talks" but i dont think shell think any less of u. its something everyone gets interested especially at that age.

It's probably not as big a deal as you think but it may make you feel better to get it off your chest.
It's nice to hear someone who respects Mum. Do what you feel is right and don't worry so much.

Every kid looks at books or mags they shouldn't. Parents expect this or should expect it. It's not lying, it's just doing something private at the time. Your mother won't look at you differently. You don't even have to tell her. Maybe you're starting to feel more like a young woman and/or have PMS...relax, it's all okay.
