Gee,,, I wish my son would do all of the things that you do!!!!
Your mom does not realize what she has in her child!
Scrapbooks are the best place for pictures. You can take the scrapbook around and share it easier compared to pictures in frames hung on the wall. You can have fun with a scrapbook too!
You wanting to make a scrapbook is creative and it is better than sitting on a computer all day long playing games. (like my son) or playing XBox all day long (like my son) or bugging your mom to take you places while she is trying to work (like my son).
I do agree with you about the homework thing during winter break... Do they even give you school work to do? LOL They use to not back in the day, I know my son's school doesn't... Since you are on the honor roll, I do not think you should have to spend your winter break studying... that just makes no sense. I did not do that to my daughter (who was on the honor roll too,,, wish my son was!)
No, not all parents are like that... I have a 20 year old daughter and 14 year old son... winter break is just that a break! and come on, what is wrong with making a scrapbook... that is CREATIVITY!
I tell ya,, you are far from lazy if everything you stated is true!

I felt the same way growing up. I felt like my dad always put me on this pedastool to be 100% perfect and if it was my idea it was awful and if it was his then it was great!! Needless to say I did well in school etc. just like you but when I went to college I finally got to break away from the situation a bit and become my own person. You can't change your mom so don't try..I've tried and it doesn't work. You'll never be good enough... no matter what you do, there's always better. Just be thankful your mom is around and cares for you even if it's tough love sometimes. Once you are out of your house things will become easier. I dealt with my dad by just doing what he said for the most part..and trying to find things that we could do together to build a positive relationship. Maybe that'll work for you!!

listen i have a mother like that now i know how u feel u need to talk to your mother about how u feel and tell her that this is your winter break and u want to go out and have fun for at least 3 days of break or more. tell her u want to do something on your own for once in a life time and not go to no classess for 6 hours at least until u want to which is never and then u need to stay on honor roll forever and u may get off once but then get back on track.be the best girl u can be and do what ur mother says except on your breaks. thoes days are yours not your parents

A religion class......what religion are you. Do you realize no matter what anyone says the only one that matters is being a follower of Christ.....and turning from sin,......
Don't try to do this all on your own. You don't have to. When you are afraid there is someone close by who understands, when you feel sad there is someone close by who understands, when you feel like not coming out of your room there is someone close by who understands........
It is the Lord.
The Lord tells us to take our troubles and lay them at his feet. When Christ is in our hearts and we are living a life for him, he will help us in our struggles. We will still have trials and tribulations, but the Lord will be there to pick you up and give you the peace that passes all understanding. It is a peace that no drugs, doctor, or anything else could give you. To have a personal relationship with the Lord....(Who loves and cares for you) here is what you need to do....
1. You must realize you are a sinner. (Romans 3:23) "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
(Romans 3:10) "As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one."
2. Second you must accept that as a sinner you owe a penalty. (Romans 6:23) "For the wages of sin is death...."
This is an eternal death in Hell. See everyone lives forever somewhere...either Heaven or Hell. Those who reject Christ and never ask for repentance of their sins go to Hell. Those who ask Christ to come into their lives, thank him for dying on the cross for their sins, and turn from their sin...will go to Heaven. You just pray to the Lord a simple prayer like this:
Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner, and I deserve to pay my own sin debt, but I do believe that you died for me to pay the debt that I owe. Today, the best that I know how, I trust you as my savior. I will depend on you from this moment on for my salvation. Now help me to live for you and to be a good Christian. Amen
If you really believe that Christ died for you, and you are ready to repent of your sins and to turn to Christ...pray...and ask him to come into your life. When no one is there he will be.
God Bless You
