in big trouble for this?

Hi,

I'm a 16 year old girl, going to turn 17 in 3 months. For the past two months I have watched my friend trying to shoplift materials from stores, and she's been trying to get me to do it too. Last night because of peer pressure, I did it (I know his was a stupid move.) I took a $20 choker from a boutique and a $90 dress from another store, but I feel terrible for it. I am going back to the store today and paying for everything that I took because this is not the kind of person I am, and I feel way too guilty and will never do this again. The thing is at the store where I took the $20 choker, my friend took some shoes, but took the shoes out of the box, put the empty box back on the shelf, and put the shoes in the bag. So I'm pretty sure the store is going to know someone took things lol. What should I do now? Should I report her or not because she's not going to give the stuff back or pay for it. In total she took around $250 worth Of stuff from the mall, and she does this every time she goes. I am very worried and have a lot going for me in the future please give me a way in where I can fix this. Thanks!

So currently I'm a junior in high school, and next year is my last year of high school.

Freshman GPA: 3.67 ( 5 honors, 1 standard which was PE)

Soph GPA: 3.21 (yikes, I know but 4 honors and 3 AP's)

Junior GPA: 4.0 ( 6 AP's)

Senior GPA: (assume a 4.0, and 6 AP's here as well)

I took PE 2 and personal finance online, and passed both.

AP EXAMS: Bio (5), Music Theory (2), Human Geography (5), APUSH (5), Stat (5), Physics 1 (5), Environmental Science (5), Psychology (5), English (5)

ACT: 34

PSAT: Qualified for National Merit, will know if I'm a finalist next month

Extracurriculars: Won national scholastic gold key, President of Key Club(2 years) , member of Speech and Debate (4 years, won awards sophomore and junior years), Treasurer of Cooking with a Cause (3 years), Indian classical dance (12 years), Student Council (3 years) DECA (3 years, won award junior year), HOSA (4 years, won award sophomore and junior year), Model UN/Youth in Government (won awards freshman, sophomore, and junior year), volunteer at Lymphoma/Leukemia society, Red Cross, Adventure Science Center, orphanage in India, and Habitat for Humanity ( I have around 800+ volunteer hours in total), tutor at KUMON sophomore year, now I work at American Eagle.

Please let me know what you think! I know my test scores and extracurriculars are strong, but my GPA is a bit low. If the first semester of senior year isn't averaged into my GPA I'll have around a 3.63, if it is I'll have around a 3.71.

Hi,

I'm trying out for freshman volleyball soon. I want to know what position I'd most likely play on the team.

Qualities:

- I'm a good setter.

- Great passer.

- Dig balls.

- Very fast.

Thank you!

I already know the drill. Left foot in front of right, right pointing to side, left pointing in direction I want the ball to go.Then I toss so that the ball is over my hitting shoulder, and then contact the ball with a stiff, firm wrist (like I'm giving someone a high five). I do this, but I still can't get my serve? I have volleyball tryouts in 5 weeks. What do I do? Think I can get it in 5 weeks? Do you think it's not going over because I'm not strong/tall enough? I'm 5"1". Whenever I serve the ball it goes high/short or flat/long. What do I need to do so it goes over the net? Please help!

Hello!

Well, I'm on summer break now. In a few months, I'll be a freshman in high school. I really want to do things during my high school year that'll get me into an Ivy League, preferably Harvard.

- I play volleyball, and I have high school tryouts on July 9. My volleyball team is nationally ranked in the top 40 in the USA. I will be playing this for four years.

- I play the violin. I will be joining the Youth Orchestra, and will be performing across the nation. I will also be doing this for four years.

- I will be volunteering at a local medical center for four years, every week for four hours. So by the middle of senior year, I'll have 700+ hours of volunteer hours.

- I will be a Special Events volunteer at my local library, and help out with events.

-I think I want to be an oncologist (cancer doctor) when I grow up. What else do you think I should do to get an ivy like Harvard to accept me? I'm really willing to work for it. In HS, I will also be doing Biology Olympiad, Chemistry Olympiad, Junior Math Olympiad, National Science Bowl, national honors society, Spanish honors society, and HOSA. I'll try to win awards for these clubs. I will also be entering national essay contests. I'm also planning on volunteering at a science laboratory the summer of sophmore year, and planning on taking science classes (Chemisty, Anatomy) at my local community college during the summer of my freshman year. Anything else I should make sure to do?

Hello,

Well over the past year, my mom has hit me, kicked me, pulled my hair, punched me,and tried to suffocate me. She's apologized for everything she's done, but still continues to slap me occasionally. Yesterday she got in a fight with my dad, and she punched him, kicked him, slapped his face, and bit him when he didn't even touch her. Few hours later, my dad decided to be the better person and forgive her for what she did. I was so mad at her for doing that to my dad, that I looked up the charges for child abuse online on my phone. So yesterday when me and her what talking, she tried looking up something on my phone , and the child abuse thing came up that I had searched earlier. She said she didn't care if I called the police, and said she would call them for me. She said her way of "disclipining" me was legal, and it was just a way of spanking me. But at the bottom of my heart , I know that's not true. I'm 14, I can tell the difference between spanking and abuse. I felt bad when she found oh that I had looked something like that up. I know I shouldn't forgive her for what she's done, and call child services, but I don't want to. I'd like to give her one more chance and get her the help she needs. How do I get her to forgive me? I've said sorry like 10 times and she still wont forgive me. Please don't tell me that I should report her and stuff, it's m life, I'll know when to do that. If she still keeps abusing me even after I get her help, I'll call. Thanks.

Hello!

I need some help with setting in volleyball. I've looked up tons of youtube videos, and they don't seem to help. I also practice setting with my dad, and I can't seem to get it then either. What should I do? Volleyball tryouts are on July 9, and I really need some help before then. Any tips?

The second thing I'm going to need help with is my overhand serve. Whenever I hit the ball, it ends up going high, but short. Any ways I can improve? I've been doing weights and tons of conditioning for tryouts. My bumping, hitting, and underhand serve are fine, it's just the overhand and setting I need help with.

Thanks.

Hey... hope everyone's having a good day (:

I just wanted to know my chances of making the volleyball team. I've played for about a year now, and I'm about to go into high school.

Here's what I've got:

1.) A really nice underhand serve.

2.) Very good bumper, I can hit fast balls.

3.) Not a very good setter.

-I know high school coaches prefer you to have your overhand serve. Tryouts are in the last week of May. Do you think I can get and perfect my underhand serve in two months?

-I am also going to try to get better at my setting.

Thanks!

Hello!

Okay, well I'm 14 years old, and I was wondering whether mild exercises (squats, lunges,etc) would decrease breast size? I know cardio will, which is why I try to stay away from that, but will squats and lunges? I'm not trying to lose weight, I'm trying to build muscle.

You see, I have a flat butt. It looks big from the side, but when I wear jeans, it looks flat from behind. So since mid-January I've been working out, doing squats, lunges, sit ups, etc. I've also given up on most junk food like chips, soda, cake, nutella, brownies, etc. The only 'junk' food I eat now is a scoop of chocolate ice cream twice a week, and one cookie for lunch every other day. I want to see fast results, is there anything I can do to speed up the process? I do 100 squats a day, 20 lunges, and 20 situps all in one day. So can anyone please recommend a healthy diet and exersise routine which will help speed up these results without losing my breast fat? I'm a 34B now...

Hello everyone!

Okay, so there's this guy that likes me. Actually he LOVES me. We're both 14, and he's already thinking of our marriage and our kids. I think it's sweet, but my friends think it's gross. Everyone seems to hate him except for the people in his school. He's popular in school and everything. But i've started developing feelings for this guy, idk why. ANYWAY. So he we were texting two weeks ago for a long time. He called me beautiful and started asking me what I liked in a guy. Then, last week he went on a cruise. And then he came back on Friday. So he texted me saying hey. I responded like three hours later saying hey how was your cruise? And then he texted me a few minutes later saying that it was great, he asked me how my Christmas was, and he inserted two blushing emojis (if you have an iPhone you would know) and I said that Christmas was great as well. Okay so I responded back the NEXT MORNING because I got my phone taken for the night. He read the message EXACTLY one minute after I sent it, but didn't respond. I thought that maybe he was busy, so he'd respond later. This all happened yesterday. So yesterday I was kiking his best friend, and he sent me a pic of their texts. So turns out that the guy I like had responded a few hours after he read my text, which makes me wonder, does he still like me? He's been obsessed with me for over 3 months, and basically daydreams about me. Do you think he likes me or not? I don't want to text him because I don't want people to think that I've started to like him (people have started suspecting). Is there a reason for why he may not have responded?

Will a sugar cube dissolve faster at room temperature water when crushed, or will it dissolve faster as a whole sugar cube itself?

Please answer (:

Can anyone recommend a skincare routine that'll make your skin look clear and feel great? Like what things do I need and need to do to achieve this? I'm 14 and I wear makeup. Right now, I remove my makeup,wash my face, and moisturize. I feel like I want to do more. So what's your skincare routine? And how often woukd I need to repeat this routine? Thanks

Please give me some advice. I seriously don't know what to do.

Okay, so I'm 13, an only child (my sister died of cancer), and I'm Indian. And, my parent's are fighting.

So here's what happened: Last Saturday, my dad had to go to work at like 11AM. So before he left to go take a shower before going to work, he asked my mom to make him some breakfast. So, he went upstairs, and exactly two minutes later, my mom's best friend called. So they were really hooked on talking to eachother. They gossipped, laughed,etc. So while she was talking on the phone (remember, my dad was still upstairs), she heated up some leftovers that we had for breakfast about a week ago. So my dad comes downstairs (by this time she's off the phone) and goes to the dining table to wait for my mom to give him his breakfast. So my mom comes in with the leftover breakfast, and he gets mad at her. He wanted to eat something freshly made, not something that was on the verge of going stale. I mean, I kind of get what he means. My mom never cooks breakfast on the weekdays, and rarely cooks breakfast on the weekends. Anyway, my dad asks her why she didn't make him a fresh breakfast, and they both start to fight. She tells him that she does every single thing in the house (cooking,cleaning,taking care of us) when apparently, he does nothing. But that's not true. She cleans once in two weeks, and cooks 3/7 days of the week. The other 5 days, we either order pizza, or eat leftovers from the day before. My dad got really mad when she said this, and he said he wouldn't come to a party we were all invited to that night. She got so mad at this statement, that she started to hit him. He never raised a hand on her, he just pushed her away three times. I tried to pry her off of him because she was literally choking him, but that really did no good. She wouldn't let my dad go to work, and she hid the keys to the car. So, she prolonged this for one hour, and then finally threw the keys at him, and he left to work. He left at 11AM, and he didn't come home until like 9PM. During the time he was gone, she would text him terrible stuff that occured in their relationship years ago. She would bring up his mother, and curse her. Anyway, just to annoy him, she kept calling him, just to curse him. He wouldn't pick up the phone, and he kept declining her calls. That's when she told me to call him. I called him twice, and he didn't pick up. That's when things got CRAZY. We both drove to his workplace, and on the way there, she told me to call him again on my cell. HE PICKED UP. She got so mad at me for not trying to call him more that twice when we were at home, and started to talk about killing herself. So she dropped me off at home ( my dad had come home) and she drove somewhere. I really thought she'd gone to kill herself, and I waited for her to come home. She did. The next day, my parents made up. A few days later, my mom began to despise him again. She told me that my dad mentally abused her, and she stopped talking to him. Like, she only talked to him when she HAD to. So yesterday, she found a blog which stated the characteristics of a mental abuser. I read it myself, and unfortunately, it's true. I see her point. Now she wants to detach herself from him, and just be by herself. The thing is, since I'm Indian, society will shun our family if my parents split. I don't even know what to do know. My mom has done this to my dad before, and he keeps calling her physco for it, and he keeps telling her to get herself checked. What should I do? I have nobody to turn to. My parents are the only ones I have. I've tried talking to my mom, telling her how these arguments make me feel, but she doesn't care. I tell her to just let it go, but she tells me that she regrets marrying him, and says that she's so stupid for taking 23 years to realize this. I tell my dad to talk to her, and help her feel better, but he doesn't. Please help me. What should I say to either of my parents to make this argument come to an end. My birthday is in 2 days (I'll be 14) and I asked my mom to just let this argument go as a "birthday present" for me. She said no. Help?

Please give me some advice. I seriously don't know what to do.

What jumps/stunts are REQUIRED for high school cheerleading? Like which ones do you use the most, and NEED to know?

I know for one, a backhandspring. Anything else? Like roundoffs,toe touches,fronthandsprings? Please make a list below (:

Also, how long do you think it would take to learn everything in the list you make for me?

I'm flexible,know my splits,stretch everyday.

Thanks

Can anyone name some? I need to complete a math portfolio and I can't think of anything! Thank you (:

Which one should I do in high school? I absolutely love volleyball, but I adore cheerleading as well. (I'm better at volleyball though) I don't know which one to pick! Please help! xx

Hey everyone!

Okay, so I really want to be a cheerleader, and make the squad for high school next year. The thing is, I've NEVER cheered before, so I need to master everything by April 2 (thats's when tryouts are). Here are the stuff I need to know for tryouts.

-toe touch

-left&right hurkies

-pike

-backhandspring&front hand spring

-roundoff

-back tuck

-hurdlers

(do I need to know layouts? Or is that not necessary)

Out of the list up there, I can do a decent toe touch (I want to get it higher), left&right hurkies (decent), splits(helps with toe touches) and a backbend (which is the first step into learning a bhs).

Based on this information, when do you think I ABSOLUTELY need to start taking cheer class with a private coach to learn this stuff? I have volleyball until October, and my parents are willing to let me take them in November. So is 5 months enough to learn all this stuff? I'm willing to work hard and put forth all my time, effort, and energy into learning this and to getting it right. It would be extremely helpful if you guys could give me an estimate of how long it would take to learn all this (:

So far, I've been doing/practicing a lot of stuff on my own. I stretch everyday, and I've tried doing a backwalkover.

Thank you so much! xx
