OK soo i wanted to get a pretty new dress for my friends b-day party- but when i told my mom she said that i should just wear the same dress that i just wore to my dance- but i was really looking forward to getting a new one and showing how nice it i would look....what should i do- i was gonna but it with my own money too but my mom is like "I paid for the at other dress and you've only worn it once"....HELPPPPP!

 

hey! The tough truth of being a kid is that you can't get your parental units to do anything. You can however, try to open a dialogue with her about your feelings. Explain your side to her in a non-whiney, calm manner. Don't interrupt her or get angry even if she interrupts you or gets angry. That's unfair, but since she has all the power, it's in your best interest not to antagonize her. As in, you'll be more likely to get what you want if you act really, super mature. If she still says no, accept her decision gracefully. If she sees that you're not going to throw a fit for not getting your way, she'll be more likely to listen next time you want something. good luck!

Aloha! So, I have a new club. Yay! And I really want/need new members! It's called "RaNdOmNeSs RuLeS!" and by the name of it, you can probs tell the club is going to be VERY random. And it is!!!! It's a place where you can be 100% yourself an NO ONE will judge you. Post random advice, updates, whatever. So if you're random (like meTong), please come join! I'm on mainly every day! Also, if you're interested in being an officer, go fill out the form on the club page ( 3 positions left!) Thanks so much!! ~Ann
