ADVICE | DEAR CAROL

Turning 16--but I don't want to grow up

 

 

I am turning 16 and every time I think about it or see little kids running around, I become sad. I don't want to grow up. Guys ask me out but I always turn them down because I feel like if I go out with them I would be losing my inner child. I don’t know why I have been so confused and sad.

 

Dear Not Peter Pan,

Thanks for your honest letter. Does your school have a counselor? It might help to talk about this. While growing up comes with increased responsibilities, hey, it also comes with perks. For instance, getting to stay out later at night with friends and the opportunity to pursue your passions in college and career. As for guys, someone who appeals to you will come along. At any age, if you strive to find the balance between work and play, you really can keep your inner child alive.

its totally fine! everyone goes through this. i know how you feel. right now im 15 and feel the same way. but when people ask why i act silly so much this is what i say: " you wanna know why, because once you hit high school, they expect you to be mature, and all that. but i wanna spent my time ad live my life to the fullest. what your going through is normal. just be you and everything will be just fine! and if your a person who sees that stuff all the time try a new hobby or something that makes YOU happy! hoped this helped bye!!! Smile

I feel like this everyday, waking up late, acting like a child almost all the time. But Ill be sixteen next year and..Im not ready to grow up..I don't wanna forget being a child..I don't want to have to grow up I understand that..I need to be mature, but all the time? Cant they let us stay a child until we are really an adult? Until we are 18 we are not adults, we are..still kids they say we are kids then say we are old enough to do other things right? Well Let us be kids until we are ready to grow up dont ruin our lives just because you think we should be adults when we arnt

Hey girlie, you can use it as a small purse when you're going out and don't need much more than your wallet and a couple other things.

Dear mod, I was forced to get a haircut by my parent since the stylist said that it would help my hair (which was apparently breaking) It's ok, but I miss my old hair. Also, I have graduation pictures and the studio told all students not to get new hairstyles (I completely forgot this rule). Also, I am in a play, and I don't think my hair fits mu character. I also don't feel very confident in myself due to my new haircut. I am afraid that I will get in trouble and that my hair will grow back badly. What do I do?
Please reply. Thank you.

Hey girlie,

I don't think your school will get you in trouble for getting a trim, they probably meant something more extreme like dye or a fancy/elaborate 'do. Your hair will grow back and will look awesome when it does, but don't let a cut get your confidence down, because you're still the same person no matter what you look like! Try a new style like a side braid or pony with your cut that you haven't done before, or wear your favorite hair band or clip to feel more like yourself. You'll get used to your haircut in no time, and you might even get some compliments Smile
