Annie Fox for Teens... Hey, Terra!

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. And choices matter because sometimes the stuff we do to “fix” a problem only makes things worse. You don’t want to go there. Instead, let me help you figure out your next best move

In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

“I want a child so I can fill this empty space in my heart.”

Hey Terra,

I had a boy ask me out that I only thought of as a friend. In the past I tended to say no, well maybe it just seemed that way to my friend. Well not that long ago I made a pact to say yes to almost every boy that asks me out. So I ended up going on a date with this guy. He's really into me and I'm not sure what to think. Usually it sort of hits me when I like someone. Now I sometimes feel uncomfortable with him, because he likes me so much.

I had a good time on our date. He took me to a baseball game and he's one of the guys that won't let you ever buy anything with your own money when...

 

Hey Terra,

I am not married, but I really want a little boy or girl. I'm 17, a senior in high school, and I have great plans for my future. Mostly all my friends have a baby, and no, that's not why I want one, but I was adopted, and I want a child so I can fill this empty space in my heart.

Baby Love
