How to delete iPad history on a different device?
My mom has my iPad and wants to see my history, and there's really nothing on it that I would be too embarrassed of, but I am insulted that she doesn't trust me. I was just wondering if there's a way to delete the history on it from a computer, since it's not in my possession at the moment. Thanks!
1 AnswerOther - Computers8 years agoThis guy is being very forward but I don't really like him?
So this guy that I go to school with and I have started talking over the past few weeks. The thing is, he gets into a lot of trouble, an he's kind of known for not treating girls right. After a few days of texting regularly, he wanted me to send him a picture in my bikini. I know it sounds childish, but I didn't want to. We had just started talking and I honestly don't really trust him, and it was a bit weird of him to ask for that so soon. After about a week, we had an argument or two, and we kind if stopped talking because he had a girl showing more interest in him. I completely understood, and honestly I was a bit relieved. I knew it wouldn't work out between us, and I didn't have strong feelings for him anyway. A couple days ago, he texted me, and apparently this girl had stopped showing interest in him, so he was coming back to me. I tried hinting that we should just be friends, but somehow we're talking again. I've never had a serious boyfriend, and I have too much self respect to have a relationship with this guy. I haven't ever done a lot with anyone, and i know he would want to do a lot. I also don't completely trust him. The problem is, Im having a hard time telling him we should just be friends. I just don't know what to do. Any ideas? Thank you!
6 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoAny tips or tricks to conjugating verbs in Spanish? (Spanish 2 course)?
I have taken 2 semesters of Spanish online. The online classes are fairly easy, but the only thing I have a hard time with is conjugating verbs. As far as I understand, you just have to memorize them. But honestly, I'm lazy. Are there any tricks to conjugating Spanish verbs? And help with the present, present perfect, and preterite forms would be great. Thank you!
5 AnswersLanguages8 years agoWhat should I tell my mom?
So for about a year now my family has been having some money problems. I have played on a basketball team that can potentially cost a lot of money for three years now. Today my coach said that there was a donation for me and that I wouldn't have to pay any expenses this season. There is at least one other girl on my team that received the same donation. But here's the problem. I don't know what to tell my mom. If I tell her the truth she will be embarrassed and will not accept the help. I understand her embarrassment, because I can feel it too. But we could really really use this. I thought about just not giving my coach the cash/check that my mom tells me to give to him, and either getting rid of the check or putting the cash back in her wallet. But what I she gives it to him herself? I need something to tell her if she asks why we don't have to pay. I don't know if this entirely makes sense, but hopefully it does. Any advice? Thanks!
3 AnswersFamily8 years agoMy little sister is out of control but my mom doesn't do anything to punish her?
My sister is eleven years old. She has broken windows THREE times in our house, she cusses and calls my mom and me names. She is impolite and demands things from us. She lies to my mom and sneaks out of the house. She yells and hits me, and our baby brother. Her grades are slowly getting worse, but I know she's a smart girl, and she hangs out with the wrong crowd. All my mom does to punish her is yell, cuss, hit/beat her, and she will take away her phone and iPad for a period of time, but my sister always gets her things back within a week or two. My mom has tried to ground her, but still makes exceptions. Im fed up with not only my sister's attidude but my mom's reactions. I feel like my mom is only making the problem worse by not punishing her strictly and maturely. Every time I talk to my mom about it, she just argues with me and refuses to see my side of the story. It's starting to really stress me out because their conflict affects our whole family. Im just at a loss. What should I do? Thanks!

Im supposed to write a research paper for my English class, and it can be about anything I want. I want to write my paper on something like teen suicide or something serious and controversial similar to that.

1 AnswerHomework Help8 years agoHow do I record a sound without a microphone?
I need to create a sound file, and attach it to a document for an online course that I'm taking. The teacher recommended using Audacity to record our speech. The only problem is, you need a microphone to connect to the computer in order to use Audacity, and I don't have one. This assignment is due in a few hours, and I'm running out of time. Can someone please help? Is there a way to record my voice in an audio file without a mic? Thank you!
6 AnswersAdd-ons8 years agoI think I have a crush on my guy friend?
So I have known this guy for a few years, and in the past year or so, we have gotten closer. Recently I am beginning to think that I like him more than that. I just think he is so nice, and funny, and good looking, and I sub-consciously daydream about dating him. (I know how immature that sounds, but I don't know how else to put it). I just don't want to be one of those girls that ruin a friendship when they try to become more than that. I'm just worried that if this little crush escalates, I'll lose him as a friend. I don't know if that makes much sense, but if it does, can you give me some advice? How do I handle this? Thanks!
2 AnswersFriends8 years agoI lie A LOT but I want to stop?
I lie all the time. And it's always about the littlest things. I just fabricate stories, and honestly, I think that sometimes I tell stories for attention. I want to stop lying because I feel like I'm living a lie, but it has just become such a habit, I don't know how to stop. Can anyone help me?
5 AnswersMental Health8 years agoWhat do you think about this message that I sent?
I live in a small town, and this morning a woman died in the community that effected so many lives in such positive ways. I am in the 8th grade, and her daughter is a junior in high school. I have met her daughter on a few occasions becaus elf mutual friends, but I doubt she really knows who I am. I sent her a message on Facebook that basically said that I am sorry for her loss and she has an entire community here to support her. The instant i sent the message, I realized I spelled her name wrong. I quickly just sent her another little message just apologizing for spelling her name wrong. For some reason, I am embarrassed and I regret sending the message in the first place. What do you think?

1 AnswerHomework Help8 years agoMy coach is trying to help my family financially, but we don't want it?
one time I accidentally let it slip that my family doesn't have very much money right now around my coach. Her family is very fortunate, and they often help people in times of need. She has offered to contribute to something coming up that is going to cost a lot of money. I tried as best I could to tell her that I didn't want her to help pay for it. It's just that my mother would be absolutely humiliated, and I would feel like I owed her for the rest of my life. She said that she WANTED to help, but I kindly said no thank you. Then as she was walking away, she said she was going to make an anonymous donation. How do I tell her that there is no way that I'm letting her offer me money. I love her, and she has been a huge part of my life, but I can't let her do this. The hard part is, she isn't taking no for an answer. What do I do? Thanks!
3 AnswersEtiquette8 years agoMy autistic friend as a secret boyfriend, and I don't know if I should tell her parents?
I am a 14 year old girl in the 8th grade. There is this 15 year old girl that is a freshman in high school who I have grown up with (our parents are very good friends) and she is autistic. She is not very good at thinking for herself or making logical decisions. She recently told me that she has a boyfriend, but I can't tell anyone. I went along with it, but it's starting to bother me. I'm just scared that someone is taking advantage of her. Not only is it unlikely for her to have a boyfriend in the first place, but the fact that she feels the need to keep it a secret scares me for some reason. I know that I need to tell her parents about my concerns because they do not know about this "boyfriend" of hers, but the only thing holding me back is that I don't want to betray her. I know she means no harm, and chances are, she doesn't see anything wrong with this situation, so I would feel awful if I got her in trouble. What should I do? Thanks!

I am an avid music lover, and lately I've had an obsession with going to a big music festival sometime during this upcoming summer.

I live in North Carolina (USA), but I go on road trips all the time, and I drive to Texas annually, so anything up to about 1000 miles away from NC is possible. Thanks!
