yes it is better for you to get out of the house if you and your mom are like oil and water (they don't mix)and you don't need the depression.  If I were you I would get a job even within walking distance (if possible) and save and have someone take you to get your license (a co worker, friend) and then save more to get your own place and you could do it although if you are in school DO NOT QUIT for no reason finish and then do whatever

You can do a few different things - tell her the truth that you are scared of her dad, make up some reasons why you can't stay over,  or just invite her to your house even though your parents think she's weird.\nHonesty is usually the best way to go - you could try staying at her house one night and seeing how it is - if you don't like it you don't have to stay there again, it's just one night.  You might be surprised to find that her dad is a really nice person or if worse comes to worse and you still don't like him then just tell her the truth and don't stay there anymore.\nJust because your parents think she's weird doesn't mean you shouldn't have her over to your house.

TELL HER THAT YOU WANT TO SOCIALIZE WITH OTHER KIDS AND SEE HOW IT FEELS TO BE IN A SCHOOL WITH OTHER CHILDREN, AND THAT YOU HAVE MORE OPPORTUNITIES IN A SCHOOL SUCH AS PLAYING FOOTBALL,BASEBALL,BASKETBALL, OR WHATEVER SPORT YOU LIKE PLAYING. TELL HER YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE WHAT OTHER KIDS EXPERIENCE COZ U THINK YOU ARE MISSING OUT AND WHEN YOU GROW UP AND READY TO MOVE OUT, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO ADJUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THE LIFE OUTSIDE "HOME" IF SHE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND TRY TELLING ANOTHER PERSON WHO IS CLOSE TO YOU OR HER, LIKE AN AUNT OR UNCLE OR EVEN ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS TO TALK TO HER...ALL THE BEST!

wow... i guess try to tell her you have things under control. but it sounds like there is more to it if she is that worried about it. so either she knows every minute of your day or you are going to have more contact with the detectives. hard to tell you what you should do. sounds like  you have a major issue in your life going and then a complication to add to it. but good luck... i guess always remember... your day is always just seconds away from getting worse... so be happy with what you have. at least your mom loves you.... like i said... it could always be worse

say something like  "so mom guess what? i got my period today" or "mom i think i started my period could we go buy some pads or something" tell her b4 u go to bed or right after school- DON'T WAIT because that's not safe

Seek counseling, and realize that, but for the actions of your Mom, you could say goodbye to being an "A" student, captain of anything, and the list goes on.......at 16, you were definitely not ready for the consequeces...would you have had to continue living at home, and get help from your Mom?...if you said "yes", then you were not ready.\n\np.s. those advocating you should have kept the child must not have thought it through that her Mom would be shouldering a great part of this burden this girl brought on herself. \nI've seen  ALOT of teenaged girls get pregnant while I was their age....most quit school, end up on welfare...\nThere are those few girls who are fortunate enough to have parents who will help raise their daughter's child so she can continue going to school, but those are the exceptions, not the norms.

Remember your parents are the ones to respect. There are rules of the house and as long as you are living under the roof, you got to obey them. Just calm down and try to take things little by little. Mothers are always like that. She is doing things that you might not like and that means that she cares and loves you. Sometimes, they have a funny way of showing love. Just stay in school and love your parents until you finish high school. Then, you will be in college and have more freedom. One day, when you are older and wiser, you will look back and realize that you would not be there without your parents. You will realize that you have two very important people in your life who you want to thank, your mom and dad.

lay down the law with her. tell her that for not getting good grades or not doing it u can take away priviledges. that should persuade her. if not, tell how much it hurts u to see her get bad grades. tell her u want to see her succeed in life and that she cant do that without doing her homework.  also, dont just take away priveledges, set aside time to check up on her. if she is doing badly, lower her allowance or take away more valued priveledges, like friends or phone. then again u dont want her to hate u, so dont come down hard on her the 1st time. but if the bad behavior and grades continue, start getting stricter. she needs to know you mean when u say it. if u say 'the next time you get a C or lower, your grounded', when she gets a C, follow up on it. she'll probably remember those words and say to herself ' moms not serious about this grade thing'. ur words need to be powerful, but not overwhelming.

Pretend you care but you know you don't inside. Wait till you leave home then you'll be able to do whatever you want. Going against them now might turn into something disasterous especially if you haven't made plans for college yet. Bite your tongue and ignore.

your mom is offering to help you!! she wants the best for you and is willing to do what it takes for you get treatment and life on back on track..she seems like a responsible caring woman so i would say stick with your mother even if it means getting kicked out of your house! its only because she loves you and until you figure out the consequences of your actions..then i presume she will keep doing it

I assume you mean drugs?  Best thing to do is be honest and face the consequences.  Your mom probably will not "kick" you out of the house but she might insist you go to drug rehab.  Your mom loves you unconditionally but she will be very hurt, angry and disappointed.  I am sure she wanted better for you and expected better of you.  You let her down.  Expect her reaction and give her time to cool down.  She will then help you.\n\nIt is time to take responsibility for your actions, come clean and stay off drugs.  Good luck!

If she has good grades, why is she always sneaking out of the house? Is there a certain problem she is facing right now? She could be missing you or doing things that she isn't supposed to. Tell ur mom when she calls again to look for a counsel group for kids that are facing the same problem like her. I hope this helps, good luck

Whatever you do, GET TO SCHOOL BEFORE IT CLOSES!!!  Tell your mom or your neighbor or a close friend.  You could try calling someone in your class who is not exactly your friend...maybe someone who you wouldn't normally talk to.

ask your parents to offer her a sanctuary until the situation is resolved.
