Violence on TV freaks me out

 

Check these out, too...

  • My dad is sexually abusing me. How can I tell my mom?
My parents watch a bunch of crime shows like Law and Order, NCIS and CSI. I have a feeling they’re affecting me. I imagine violence everywhere. It makes me afraid to go places and fall asleep. I think I need a psychologist. Do you?

 

Dear Traumatized,

I think you need to walk away from the television. Ask your parents to watch these shows in their bedroom or after you’re asleep. Even if they keep watching in the open, you don’t have to. I never watch scary shows—they spook me, too. By the way, real life is nowhere near as dangerous as TV makes it seem. You should be smart and sensible and safety-conscious, but you should not be paranoid. Still worried? Talk over your fears with your school counselor.

mod mod mod I've had to miss out on lots of fun experiences ): how can I cope?

Hey girlie,

No one can do everything, and there will be tons more fun experiences in the future for you to take part in! Try focusing on having fun with your friends now instead of dwelling on the past!

mod mod mod is it true sugar helps make your lips soft?

Hey girl,

I think sugar would exfoliate your lips, which would make them softer after you wash the sugar off! You could also use a lip scrub. Don't forget to moisturize your lips with a lip balm afterward!
