| I have two really good parents, but I have a problem. Ever since my mom made fun of me in front of all her relatives about a boy I had a crush on in Kindergarten, I haven't been able to talk to the ‘rents about boys or anything personal. There is this boy that I really like and he likes me back, so yeah we really wanna go out! But I don't think my parents would let me. They've said things before about not dating till high school and I'm only in seventh grade. I don't want to sneak around behind their backs (I did that once and they never found out but I felt horrible). Please help me, sometimes I cry because I want him to be my boyfriend so badly. – Linea, 12, Pennsylvania |

| My Mom and Dad broke up when my brother and I were eight. He's made my life very difficult ever since! Now he wants us to go and live with him. But I don’t even call him Dad - I call him by his first name. I don't even like him and I’m tired of him talking to me! I just want him to stay out of our lives! My brother and I have to go to court because of it but what ever we say the court always says that we have to see him on the winter holidays! How do we tell him to leave us alone? – Heather, 11, Australia |

| My dad is so over-protective! Before I was able to spend the night over any of my friends' houses. Now, all of a sudden, I can't spend the night over any of my friends' houses. I asked him "How come I can't spend the night over my friend's house?" He said, "Because there is too much stuff going on." I get so mad when he says that. In his language it means, "I'm scared that something will happen to you." What can I do to tell him that he can trust me and that he shouldn't worry? – Jessica, 13, Arkansas |

| My mom is going to school, and is gone most of the time. She and my step-dad are separated. My mom asked me if they were to get back together, would I be okay with it? I said I’ll be fine, but this time she saw right through my façade. Then we got into this long discussion about my dad, who isn't around. And I said it's my fault he's not around and she's like no. But is she right? He's not around because he wasn't ready to have a kid. So no me = mom and dad still together. So it's my fault that he doesn't love me, right? – Elana, 13, Michigan |
