  • How can I politely ask my mom to stop posting (and other actions) on my behalf on Facebook?

    About 3 years ago, due to some past actions of my misuse of the Internet (which I did learn my lesson, I promise), my mom collected my Facebook password to monitor my activity. I'm okay with this, as I don't have anything to hide anymore. However, what does bother me, is that she messages, posts, and responds to my notifications and friend requests on my behalf; without asking sometimes. Specifically, she's messaging her ex-boyfriend and it bothers me because I don't want him to think I was messaging him, when it was really my mom. (He blocked her) A little background info they were an off/on relationship for many, many years and he was a bit Narcissistic. I checked my Facebook messages and they were talking about sci-fi movies and nothing much of actual importance, but it still bothers me because I don't want to have contact with him. He sent me a friend request and I intentionally left it as unaccepted (not declining either, I didn't respond), and my mom accepted it. I deleted the posts from my behalf today (again, these weren't of much importance either, just my mom posting pictures of us on vacation, and such, but I don't want people posting on my behalf like that..), and I also deleted him from my friends list. So, how can I have a calming talk with my mom about this? I don't mind that she has my password, but I don't like her utilizing my account in this way on my behalf. I know I'm a minor, but I don't appreciate my mom doing this.. Thanks so much!! :)

  • How can I gain back my mom's trust?

    I apologize if this is lengthy, but I am sincere with this. Anyway, a few years ago when this began, I bought an iPod Touch with saved money. I was 13. I will admit, & I regret this deeply, I very much abused my right to the Internet, especially at my age at the time. I talked to strangers and sexted with them, among other inappropriate activites that would be a parent's nightmare to see their child engaging in. If I could go back in time to undo my actions, I would in a heartbeat. My mom found out after she took my iPod and inspected it. Of course, I felt my privacy was invaded and I was very, very nervous to await her reaction. I got my iPod taken away for a couple months before I could use it again. About a year after that, my iPod has started to malfunction and my dad bought me a phone (which I'm typing on right now, fun fact!) and I was so glad. Ever since my mom has taken away my iPod, I have been very clean with my actions and have truly changed, as talking to perverts is disgusting. I haven't done anything I'd feel nervous for my parents to see. Despite how I initially felt, I'm eternally grateful now that she did what she did otherwise I probably would be in a bad situation now. A week ago, she asked for my email and Facebook passwords and I gave them. I don't have anything to hide anymore, however I feel uncomfortable when people look through my accounts if you know what I mean. So, how can I regain trust and prove to her I have changed my online behavior? Thanks!:)

  • What are alternatives to speech therapy?

    Hi! I have had speech therapy for 8 years (first grade through ninth, a few days each week), from the Speech-Language Pathologists that are hired at local schools. Of course it has gotten better, however it is not fully "normal" if you get what I mean. I would have had it in tenth grade as well, however since it has been eight years with three different therapists, they figured it wouldn't do much good. Thanks in advance for your answers!

  • How to retrieve my Face Book account?

    Hi! Just about 10 minutes ago, I was logging into my Face Book, just to see how my friends are doing, etc. So, Face Book gave me this message:

    Please Verify Your Identity

    It looks like your account might not be real. Facebook is a community where people share and interact using their real identities.

    Facebook does not allow accounts that:

    *Pretend to be someone else

    *Use a fake name

    *Don't represent a real person

    In order to regain access to your account, please complete the following security check to verify your identity and help keep Facebook secure.

    So, as usual, I typed in the CAPTCHA code, and it worked, Then, it told me to enter in my mobile phone number. I don't even have a phone! I just access Face Book from my computer, and it works perfectly fine. So, in respond to that message about the mobile phone, I just tried to log in again, and still the same message. I am NOT a fake person at all. I am using my real identity. I have been adding ONLY people who I know. Is there anyway I can just permanently delete my account? I just really do not want to buy a phone,iPod, etc.

    Thank you so much,

Not just any guy. But a true friend. His name was Scott. Every moment of Leah's free time, she spent time with Scott. Elizabeth was jealous. She got so jealous, that she even telling Leah face-to-face, to please, please, please be friends with her again. All what Leah would say was, "We still are friends, Elizabeth!" She didn't mean it. Leah got to the point where she started cyber-stalking Scott, without him knowing. In the 7th grade, they never talked. Why? Read the book to find out!

    -The Cyclelogical Running Partner

    Hi. My name is Abagail. Well, I have a long story. I just started my first year of Cross Country. I'm in the 7th grade, and, well, my "Cyclelogical Running Partner," well, his name is Parker. He's in the 8th grade. I cry every time I hear something about 8th grade. What will my life be like without Parker? We ran every single race together, supported each other, and we never left each other's sides. I couldn't imagine life without him. Will Abagail stand the next running season with Parker? Read the book to find out!

    -The Hutchersons

    One day, I was in the middle of an ordinary school day. Like always, I headed to the chorus room. I had a major crush on one of the 11th graders, and I'm a 10th grader. I had no idea what was going to happen on this day. The chorus class finished up, and the 11th graders came in, like always. I just grabbed my stuff and went out the door. Landan, the boy I had a crush on, came for chorus, like he always does. I dropped my books and binders accidently. Landan walked up to me. "What was he going to do?" my mind was asking me, in a split-second. Landan grabbed my chin, and gave me a nice, long, salty kiss. He wrapped his arms around me, and I had no idea what to think. All as I did, was wrap my arms around him. We both closed our eyes, and his lips haven't left mine. The bell rang, and he slowly back away. I was late to class! What was I going to do?! I was going to make up some excuse, not telling the real reason. I just told the teacher that I got held back in class because I forgot a paper. Anyways, that was a whole month ago... Next month, is when summer break starts. Landan has a girlfriend, and what am I going to do? Just stare out my window? What will Breanna (The main character) do without Landan? She was totally replaced. Read the book to find out!

    OK so, I deleted ONE of my answers because it wasn't that great and all, and then I went ahead and answered some more questions, (I didn't delete these answers) and it says "Deleted an answer: -2 points" around the side. Why is it doing this?

  • Can I get metal braces that have clear/white brackets?

    Hi! I'm getting braces soon and I was wondering if I could get the metal braces (traditional) instead of the fancy ceramic ones. The ceramic braces are too expensive for my parents to get, so they said I have to get metal. I can choose my colors and everything. (I'm probably going to clear or white) In other words, can I get tooth-colored, clear, or white brackets on my braces that are metal without getting the ceramic ones? Also, InvisaLighn is not covered by my parent's insurance. I really just don't want my braces to be noticed!!

    If they do make clear metal braces, which foods should I avoid so I know to try to avoid them.
