I live in South Florida, it's in transit to the US as of 10 am (it's currently 9 pm). Also where does the package go first when it enters the US. Will it be accepted into a facility in New York first then shipped to Florida or what?

Before you start calling me a brat and an ungrateful child, I don't want to hear it. I hear it from my parents enough and I'm just trying to innocently figure out if these punishments I am getting are causing more harm than good.

I am known as the girl who is ALWAYS grounded. I honestly don't know when it started cause its been so long.

I think it started cause of my grades.

I havent had my phone for more than month in maybe like 2 years. and I am never allowed to hang out with friends (in the past year maybe)

Even if I am officially allowed to its too much of a hassle and they have to be there.

Mind you, I am a sophmore in highschool. would understand a 12 year olds parents being like that if theyre a little overprotective but I have 2 more years and I am leaving the house..

Anyways, since I haven't been allowed to hang out with people, I just do stuff behind their backs and sneak out or other things. 2 weeks ago I was allowed to go to a birthday party. I had so much fun and I realized how long it has been since I was out with friends for a night. (actually I dont think I've ever hung out with friends at night.. besides middle school sleepovers) anyways I was so hungry for more I snuck out later that night and then got caught. But I keep on doing it cause I just miss freedom so much and I honestly stopped caring about stuff getting taken away.

I dont think there is much to take away anymore

Someone told me socializing should be basic teenage rights (a parent on y!a)

My daughter has usually been an A average student throughout her years. She never usually got Straight A s but I didnt mind cause she still did well. Middle school came around and she was up and down in her grades but always came through with a B average (always mostly B s and 1 or 2 A s). Now she is a Freshmen in highschool and is getting C s and B s and even got a D last quarter. She recently got in trouble for sneaking out so I took away all her privileges such as going out with friends, her phone, laptop, plus a new list of chores. I want to motivate her to get Straight A s though so how would I do that? I promised her a trip to California once if she ever got straight A s but she has never gotten there. What should I reward her with? Her privileges back or something else?

First of all, as of now there are no problems in our relationship

but this has kind of been nagging me and I just want to know if this is weird.

I am a mild romantic and he is a big one (i think...?)

He got me a rose and this special necklace for my birthday that has a meaning behind it (which id rather not share for personal reasons)

Anyways he also put me in his instagram bio and started making posts about me when i havent done anything cause I told him myself i thought it was 'gay'. Jokingly. But I still refuse to be so 7th grade cliche and put him in my bio.

No special events have passed that enable me to give him gifts either.

Anyways, do you think that I am not trying hard enough? and he is. cause i did have this problem in my last relationship except it was switched (i was trying too hard and he wasnt at all), and I know how bad it feels

I have this boyfriend, who is very nerdy and very very very socially awkward. He is a nice guy and all, and hes very cute, I do love nerdy guys. But I feel bad for saying this, but Im embarrassed to admit he is my boyfriend? Its not like I actively avoid admitting it but when I do I just get this ashamed feeling...? I sound so shallow, i know. But I am a very outgoing person, I know everyone and im very active. He is the polar opposite. Hes very lazy, would rather sit than walk anywhere, doesnt like talking to other people, never has any good conversation topics. At first I thought it was cute that he was so shy but now its frustrating because he just trails behind me when I'm talking to people.

I really dont have the crushy feeling, I dont think I ever did.

Plus He doesnt even try... He didnt get me anything for Valentines Day when I got him something (2 things on separate occasions actually) and said he wouldnt get me anything for my birthday. Its not being materialistic cause literally all I wanted was something to show he cared. I wouldve loved a little note written on notebook paper idc, just put some effort you know? We havent been dating long but I feel like he would never put effort at all...

I dont want to dump him cause I would hate to hurt his feelings, i know he actually likes me.

I sound so shallow, but honestly its how i feel.

There is also these two other guys who are so much more like me who are interested but Idk if I would dump him for them

So, I know its past V-Day already but we couldnt see each other yesterday or today, so i guess today wouldve been the first time we would see each other after Valentines Day.

The thing is, I asked him out 2 days before Valentines Day (Friday) with a card and a lollipop and i guess that day was the 'designated' school Valentines Day, since some parents dont allow their kids to celebrate with their significant others or whatever (like mine). Like obviously he wouldnt get me anything that day cause he didnt know and he actually did think i was a lesbian (long story, not because he assumed but like other reasons that are my fault lol) But anyways I thought my way was crappy af so over the weekend I got him a teddy bear, and wrote him another card with a rose and whatever. I also got my best friend a bear and a box of chocolates and other things cause she actually surprised me with gifts on Friday. I guess Im not mad that he didnt get me gift, just a little disappointed and awkward cause I did. And also my best friend did get me gifts while he did not.

All i want is a little letter at least, just something to show he put thought into our First Valentines Day together.

He was happy when I gave my gifts to him but he said he felt bad that he didnt get me anything. I said its fine but I was kind of hurt, it kind of shows he didnt thing about me.

Do you think I have a right to expect a gift or do you think Im being silly and our relationship is way too new for stuff like this?

Im a freshman in highschool, and as most of you know Valentines Day is coming up.

There is this kid I've recently been talking to, really cute and nerdy.

Anyways the other day he was acting all sad and awkward around me and it was weird. I asked him the next day why and he said it was because i mentioned i had a girlfriend and he was planning to ask me out (I actually broke up with her the day he was acting sad)

I didnt tell him I broke up with her cause i was like 'nope awkward situation' and kind of just left, which is bad i know but i cant deal with that stuff.

Anyways an hour ago i wrote him this card and basically its just asking him out and im planning to give it to him tomorrow.

But im having second thoughts... should i go through with it?

Boom.

Blew all yall away.

Im probably going to get comments on how Im probably ugly and how Im so conceited but Im beginning to notice how guys treat me and how they treat 'other' girls.

I usually just hang out with guys cause Im chill with them and Im a lesbian anyways so its nice to not have people uncomfortable being friends with you and its fun to talk about hot girls together.

Most know Im a lesbian, but I hardly say it. I just told a couple and then after that everytime my close guy friends think someone is hitting on me they tell them for me (I am the worst at telling when someone is flirting)

Ive been told I'm pretty, and guys always make sexual banter with me, which I always do back cause its just playful banter and i always thought it was harmless.

Then today i was hanging out with my friend thats a girl and this other dude and he was tickling me and touching me alot more than her. and guys usually do that with me and i thought it was normal but I've noticed im the only one who they do it too. My friend and the other dude know each other better and I kind of know him. I honestly dont think he touched her once its weird. plus he kept making weird sex talk like "I need a girlfriend" and "lmao can i **** someone like now". That was kind of weird but whatever y'know?

After that I was talking to her and she said that he was totally flirting (which I disagreed cause basically ALL my guys friends act like that just theyre cooler with the sexual junk).

I mean products like concealer and foundation and the foundation powder. Price isnt an issue. I bought an amazonian clay bb cream by tarte for like $42 and it made me orange and it didnt spread well. I hated it. I was sure I had a warm undertone so I dont know why it made me orange. Anyways I need a new foundation. Im okay with my bareMinerals concealer and my powder (i forgot the brand) but I would like to LOVE my skin products. So anything you guys prefer?

I made a little survey

https://surveyplanet.com/5668ecdd78e0233a6d14e42a

theres the link.

First to finish the survey gets 10 points!

i think my mom needs to go to counselling for being a pathological liar + other disease i think she may have. I thought she had BPD but she is very charismatic and people with BPD are generally not liked. so i dont know

There were all these stories she told me as a kid (not even like kid appropriate stories or to teach me a lesson) that I am now finding out that they were lies. Or just lies to get me to shut up or be on her side (ex: her boyfriend beat her when I was disagreeing that they should break up I WAS 7)

Every day she says a lie, not even an exaggeration. (my stepfather agrees) and if you point it out she will defend it to the death and always put you down if you dare challenge her. both me and my stepfather think that sometimes she actually believes her own lies

I sat down with my stepfather and talked about counselling with him, and he agreed (sort of) we cant really force her to go and she will probably never go but I want to try. Hes the one who came up with my mom being a compulsive liar when I was talking about a friend who I thought was one too and that why I'm asking.

Do you think that she is acting bad enough to be able to send her to a psychiatrist? I think she only acts mean and rude around her family (since the only other type of people are clients and business partners she hangs out with) but I know for a fact she lies to her clients/partners all the time. but never gets angry and defensive like she does around us. (she does get defensive tho)

This is like a whole thing I need to explain, but recently ive been hanging out with some new people (boys, cause i basically always hang out with boys.) and theyre all older. (Junior, Junior, Sophmore, and 2 more unknown but I know theyre older) I'm a freshman girl. I also am a lesbian, so I really didnt see the problem with this (they know this). So yesterday, I was hanging out with them at this shopping complex thing (like i always do) but that day my phone was taken away for other reasons and my mom had nothing to check up on me, when she knows I always have stuff to do after school (that day I had Garden Club then went to hang out) anyways I decided to f*ck it, didnt try to call her and I hung out till 5 (2 hours after school) then my mom just went to pick me up since she obviously knew where I was. She. Was. Pissed. I know what I did was bad and irresponsible but this was probably the first time I hung out with when i didnt get anxiety. Do I have to call her? Do you think she'll let me stay longer? Do I have to ride home or can i get a ride? Can Matt drive me home? Why is she calling me again? It just felt nice to have the freedom to just be disconnected from her.

Anyways the punishment was; No social life, I had to quit environmental club, door off my hinges (has not been taken off yet and im thinking shes not gonna do it) I have to come straight home everyday, she scrapped my skateboard, and did say something that im not allowed to wear skirts anymore..?

My blog is kind of a pretty princess theme, .

In the dd/lg community.

it was originally yourlittlefairy.tumblr,com

but that url is glitching and i cant use it.

So any other suggestions?

I really liked that url but other words i could use are: pastel, princess, kitten, bows, cookie, or peach. stuff like that.

Or i could use synonyms of fairy like pixie or nymph.

please any suggestions?

I need to do this for my current event. I dont need an explanation why it relates but that would be helpful. If you dont know what im talking about its the story where obama bombed the afghan hospital called doctors without borders.

Epic poems as in: The Odyssey, The Illiad, and the Aeneid. Sources will be very helpful

My mom just decided to go to the government website and "check" how much money my dad should give her child support for. she completely filled out the information wrong. Last year she made 200,000 and for the information she put 30,000 a year. (Ik this cause she bragged about it for a month)

My dad apparently makes 100,000 a year

So she literally threatened him by taking a picture of what the government page told her (owing her like 1k a month or something) and told him (and I quote) you have 1 week to put 900 in my account or I'm taking you to court.

I ******* hate the child support system, it's unfair and sexist. They take way too much money from parents.

Anyways if she takes him to court; will I be able to input my opinion and says she doesn't need it? I'm 14.

This whole thing started cause I wanted to pay for my homecoming ticket by myself cause she was making me hit him up for so much money when she doesn't pay for anything for me. 2 months ago; she made me pay for my own clothes, and all necessities

My dad recently got divorced, and he had 2 other kids and the mother is pounding him with that stupid child support took him to court and everything

So I just wanted to leave him be.

SHE LITERALLY DOESNT PAY FOR ANYTHING BUT FOOD OF MINE.

I hate her so much. She is a manipulative ***** and I Cant stand her. Then she tries to make me hate my dad by saying that he doesn't take me enough and all he cares about is his new girlfriend and ugh I can't stand it
