I get voice cracks when I'm trying to "let my voice go"?
When I'm singing just a little higher and I'm trying to be loud, my voice starts to produce some strange noises and it hurts. So, in front of other people, I try to control my voice too much(because I'm afraid what will my voice sound like next), and I end up singing very quietly in falsetto. I tried to let my voice just go and sing loudly and high at the same time, but I always ended up straining my throat too much and I'm afraid it might permanently damage my voice.
I hear from people too much advise like, you should let your voice go, you sound nice, but should be louder when you sing... Btw, I'm 14. :)

Never sing louder than normal or "push" your voice. The more you push, the harder it gets to sing higher. Voice cracks can easily be erased simply by humming. Hum as you normally would on a scale. As soon as you feel pressure or a break, make it sound as whiny and nasally as possible using your pharyngeal voice*. Also you can stretch out your tongue with your hands (wash your hands first) then, with a whiny and nasally voice, sing your scales. This is will relax your vocal chords and remove any tension singing higher. This exercise may make you look dumb, but it works wonders if done properly!
