I need to help my family
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I don't know if this is the type of problems you help, but I could use some advice. My godmother is a really nice lady, and her two six and eight-year-old kid are so adorable and sweet. However, they have the problem of being poor. My mom started crying today because she can't help them, since her store isn't doing so well with the economy and whatnot. My godmom's sneakers were so worn in that you could see her socks, and apparently they're going to get evicted soon. They couldn't apply for foodstamps because she makes $100 over the limit, but it's just circumstances. That little circumstance is her childrens' father. He's a, pardon my French, piece of sh*t who couldn't learn how to be a good person if you wrote it on a sign and waved it- maybe he's so stupid that he can't read. He manages to get $40,000 from FRAUDING PEOPLE, that bastard, but he won't buy his goddamned daughter a pair of sneakers. He ran away to an island. He won't give them a penny, and neither will her millionare brother. I just hate it. I was thinking of talking to my school counselor about starting a fundraiser, but I'm not in student council and they're not some fancy charity. I don't know what else to do. I want to write to Congress about f**king food stamps, write to every local news station until they talk about what a sick bastard this man is, or... I don't know. I could make a website, but that takes money. Unless I get it hosted, but how do you advertise it? Do you think any of these are good ideas? I want to help them. I really wish I could help everybody at this point.
Lost relationships w/ my bestfriend & boyfriend
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
There's a lot going on with me right and I feel like I want to die. First off I got raped about 2 months ago by 4 guys, so that's a lot of stress because I think I might have to go to court with all of this mess. But I'm in love with this guy and he's 17. He used to love me too, but now he doesn't. I've known him for about a year and I miss him really bad. I have a bad relationship with my mom only because, before I got raped I was always at the house alone. So now she wants to step in and be "Super Mom". And that's something I can't stand. I have a good relationship with my dad but lately I can't tell him everything that's going on because I know I'm doing things he would just tell me to stop doing. I mean most of my stress is coming from people, that I like to hang out with and talk to but at the same time are hurting me. PLus I talk to older guys. But the problem now is that I've lost the one person I really truely trusted in this world. My best girlfriend. Her boyfriend (who was my boyfriend first) and me did something over Spring Break, but I didn't know they were still together. So now, I don't have a best friend. For a long time she didn't forgive me and she was mad. But yesterday she said she forgave me. I don't know if that means we will be best friends again but I don't think so. Because she even told her mom what happened... There's a lot more going on but this is on my mind really heavy...

I like him & so does my bestfriend
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I've liked this boy since last year but my feelings for him have gotten stronger this year and last year was just a little crush. He is now dating my old best friend from two years ago. I liked him first and i know that doesnt make him mine but still its not fair. I really like him a lot and my best friend is close friends with him so thats how we got to know each other. My best friend was telling me about his problems with the relationship and he may break up with my old best frend soon [they've been going out for around 6 months] I have no clue what i should do because if i flirt with him and try to go out with him everyone will think im a backstabbing whore, but i did like him when she didnt and after.
I want them to be confident in me
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I have had a very hard life. I don't like saying that because it feels to me like I am saying that it excuses my actions. When i turned nine I got diagnosed with Cancer and had to have several surgeries. Soon after that my parents got a divorce and about a week after that my dad started having sex with me. I didn't tell anyone that for a long time and when I did no one believed me because I had waited seven years to come out in the open about it. I don't have to see my dad... But my relationships with other people get really hard. I push people away before they can hurt me and tend to try to control people. I went to therapy and now that I am 'over' it I am very happy and always have a smile on my face. My friends don't believe me though. I always break down in the winter because thats when it started and I did it this last winter. They don't believe I'm better and that I won't cut or drink or smoke like I have been. They keep saying. 'Wait until winter.' It just sucks. I want them to be confident in me...
My mom just hates me for everything
TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
My mom is way controlling, yet she has issues of her own. I think I'm a decent person, I take care of my brother, I keep myself clean, and I tell her everything. But she justs hates me for everything. I'm not the best student, even though I try my hardest, and she just yells and yells about it. Sometimes, if it gets really bad, she'll start hitting me. Once, a few years back, she hit me so hard that she cracked my skin and nearly gave me a concussion. She just won't be happy with what I do. And this was because I didn't want to join the track team. Also, she's very downgrading. She tells me daily that I'm fat, ugly and stupid. I swear, she acts just like an immature teenager. And she forbids me to go out and date since she's too busy dating. Seven men at the same time. Since her typing skills are bad, I type messages to her boyfriends for her. And she is still married to my dad. She teaches me and my brother to hate him, and he teaches us to hate her. They are both a bit violent and overreact all the time. They openly cheat, and try to convince me and my 9 year old brother that this is good. I don't buy it, I really don't want nothing to do with them. My mom especially. The only thing seperating me living in my house as a child rather then a tenant, is me not having to pay rent. And she's told me before that I needed to pay rent if she hates me enough. Please help me. I've tried talking to relatives and Counselors, but they all side with her, since they all choose to beleive my mom's side of the story rather than mine
