ADVICE | TOUGH STUFF

10 ways to show M&D how much you care

 
Sometimes, we take the important people in our lives for granted, and Mom and Dad are no exception. This Heart Day (and beyond), show your parentals how much you lurrrve them in a snap.

 

Bake their favorite dessert as an after-dinner treat

 

Offer to babysit your younger sibs so they can go out on a V-Day date

 

Leave V-Day cards on their pillow

 

Slip a cute note under their to-go coffee mug

 

Sincerely ask them about their days

 

Do what they tell you to…the first time they ask

 

Offer up a bear hug for no reason at all

 

Pop in their fave movies when it’s your turn to pick

 

Don’t complain about their choice of radio station. Hey, they’re behind the wheel!

 

Notice the little things, like Mom’s new haircut or Dad’s switched-up cologne

I have a huge problem. I recently bought The Hunger Games on DVD, but it had to be a secret from my very Christian stepdad cuz he does not like it at all. So I had a plan to have my parents watch the movie so they can understand why I like it so much. The problem is that yesterday my grandpa told my stepdad that he bought the movie and threw it away after watching it. Now I think he hates it more. What do I do?

 

Hey girl, this is tricky. Try sitting down with your dad and talking to him about The Hunger Games, tell him why you like it, ask him what his concerns are and maybe you can come up with some sort of agreement or maybe he'll agree to watch the movie to approve the movie himself. If not, I'm afraid  you might just have to return the DVD rather than risk getting into trouble for watching it. Good luck girly. xoxox

My parents have been divorced since I was seven. It's been a very long time, but I just can't take it anymore! Whenever my friends ask me a question about it, I just about burst into tears [sometimes I do]. I can't stand it! My friends say that they will be there for me...but shouldn't I be fine now after all these years? Help!




Hey babe,

We all break down about sensitive subjects no matter how long it comes to be.  Time solves a lot of things but it will never completely erase a scar.  It will, however, wear it away and make it easier to deal with.

The same things happens to me still, and mine got divorced even longer ago than yours did.  When triggered in the right way, I end up crying too.  I like to look at how much stronger it made me, and how impressive it is that I've come to deal with it so well as is.

please help!!
Me and my mom get in fights ALL the time. not like little fights or yelling, but like screaming and she physiclly abuses me, like hitting, scratching, suffocating me, etc. i swear im not exaggerating and i need help because it feels like no one cares about me. i know my mom hates me and i dont know why. she always tells me i have problems and yells and me and im super derpressed. help.




Hey girl,

Check out this article for some tips on calming down, stepping back from the angry fights, and fixing this sitch. Try to take some of the advice there like walking away if you get really upset and talking to her quietly and calmly when she is in a good mood. But you need to talk to someone else if she's actually physically abusing you. This isn't a joke - your mom should be someone who protects you, not someone who hurts you. It's obviously causing you to be really hurt and depressed, so this isn't healthy at all. Please please please talk to a teacher you trust, a school counselor, a clergy person at a local church (even if you don't go to church), or a friend's parent about this NOW. <3 It's worth it so you can feel like your home is a safe place!

MOD MOS MOS!!!!
My mom and I got in a fight a few days ago when I didn't do the dishes. I went to my room because I was mad and went to bed because it was the time she wants me to go to bed. I also said things about her I regret to my friend. I was just mad because I had a bad day and I just wanted to go home and forget about it. My mom took away my cell phone and said she would give it back when I respect adults. Now she read my texts and she is really sad and won't give my phone back. What should I do? I have already apologized and done everything she told to.

 

 Hey girl! Tough sitch, but you got this. Let your mom cool off for a bit. While she's busy cooling off write her a hand written note apologizing and saying everything you love about her. Tell her just how thankful you are for her! Handwritten notes are one of the most special gifts you can give a person. She might not give you back your phone right away but she'll def appreciate your kind words. Good luck! xo, Erin M.

Hey veggigurl, first try to reason with your mom. Ask her if she can make an execpetion just for the Wednesday. If not, you should just break down and tell him the truth. Let him know about you being grounded but also tell him you would love to go out with him some other time. I think he'll understand. Hope this helps! Xoxo
