By "trying to get it together", do you mean you are going back to high school? Honestly, if you think you are not going to make it again in high school, forget it. Go get a job and prove to your mum that you are not wasting your time loitering around.Meanwhile upgrade yourself by attending courses that will help in improving the skills you are good at. If you are determined to be successful by being hardworking, you can make it. Tell your mum, being highly educated is not the only source to being successful. If I'm not mistaken one of the world's richest men was a school dropout, mind you. So boy, work hard and aim and upgrade yourself at a skill and you will make it one day.And also remember, mix with good friends because if you mix with bad company, you will never going to make it to success.May GOD bless you with a bright future, as GOD helps those who have faith in HIM and themselves.

It sounds like you need to gain your mothers trust. Remember, your actions speak louder than your words. Your mother probably thinks, yeah... it sounds good, but how do I know that you aren't just trying to say what it is that I want to hear? I think you should have the type of relationship with your mother where you keep her updated on some of the steps that you are taking to get your life together. Don't let her down because all moms want to see their child(ren) do better than they did. Everybody is not fortunate to have a second chance, so take full advantage of your goals because their is a lot of competition out there in the world. Do well and make your mother proud. I bet if you believe in yourself and work hard to achieve your goals, she will believe whatever you tell her from here on out... GOOD LUCK!

Why did the demise create a great scandal? Do you advise disruption? i don't get a sparkling experience of your father, different then what he potential to you. you're lacking many information as to: workplace, community involvement, volunteer commitments, etc, if appropriate. i does not point out that he went to products, yet how he grew to become into there for the kinfolk. and that i does not say "too" a lot of human beings regarded as much as him, yet only many. "Get each little thing together" does not say plenty, what grew to become into he doing to get it together? end on a extra advantageous notice. the way you watch for him being a grandfather on your toddlers, advising you on your profession, etc.

First beleive in yourself, apply for college and stick to it. My advice to you will be to start with one class on the first semester and then two classes on the second. it you are working full time do not take more than two. I repect you for you for getting you GED and wanting more.

The best way to prove yourself is to show change. If you are trying to get it together, involve your mother. Ask her to help keep you focused. She will appreciate the chance to be apart of your new commitment.

As a mother of teenagers, believe me it won't be that hard. We want to believe in you guys, and we will give you a thousand chances. All we want is for you to be happy. Give her a hug, make her a cup of tea/coffee, and talk to her about your plans. She may be sceptical at first, but she wants you to succeed as much as you do. Good luck Honey, and good on you!!!

By showing her good grades.
Better yet, go farther, by applying for college before you graduate.
