Hi there… How’s it going? Probably not all that great or you wouldn’t be here looking for help. No worries. Teens have been emailing me since 1997 because I give good advice. If you’ve got a problem with friends, so-called friends, a bf/gf, a parent, or anything else… email me. I can help you sort out your feelings. No matter what’s going on, you always have choices.

In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

He plays sports, is always home and... |

My aunt said she could get me a job at the hospital she works at, and my cousins have a weight set that I can use to stay in shape. However, my mom seems set against it. She gives me all these reasons why I can't go, such as my aunt is low on money and she might loose her house, but when I go to check it out, my mom is wrong. I tell her in the nicest possible way (really, if I ever backtalk, my mom would not take it), but then she comes up with another reason why. Her favorite right now seems to be they are a bad... |
