Advice Column

1. If school was not teaching me anything and I wanted to drop out, what should I do? 

 

Answer:  I think at this time dropping out would not be a good thing, because if you were to leave, where would you go? Your mom would want you to get a job, and seeing how bad the economy is now, you are not guaranteed a job. The best bet would be for you to stay in school. 

 

 

2. There is a girl that does not like me and I think she wants to fight me. The problem is I am not scared; I just don’t want to get suspended. What should I do? 

 

Answer: I think you should just stay your distance from this person. Avoid any conflict, because doing something that leads to getting suspended should be your last option. Do not worry about people thinking you are scared, you are just being smart.

 

 

3. There is this boy I used to go out with. We broke up, and now he is dating my friend. What should I do?

 

Answer:  First of all, she is not your friend because if she were, she would not be with someone you were with if she really cared about you. That is just not cool, so I think you should just leave them both alone.

 

 

4. There is a teacher that I do not like and she does not like me. Should I hit her or bust her car windows? What should I do? 

 

Answer:  You should get your classes changed, because either one of those actions would result into a police report and expulsion. Either find a way to not deal with her or you will get arrested.   

 

 

5. I want a tattoo and my mom said I could not have one. Should I sneak and get one anyway? 

 

Answer: Well, if you really, truly love your mother, you would not get one. But, if you really want one, just get it somewhere your mother would not see it. 

 

 

6. There is this cute girl in my class and I like her, but she does not know it. Should I tell her? 

 

Answer: If you really do like her, then I think you should go for it. What is the worst that could happen? Either she says yes or no, so it would not hurt to try.   

 

  7.If my friend does not smell too good and I know it, should I tell her? 

 

Answer: Yes, I would tell her. She is your friend, and she needs to know if she has a problem, so I would absolutely tell her.
