How to rekindle the friendship that me and my friends used to have?
in
We drifted apart now I'm alone and I don't know how to become friends with them again without it being awkward.
Answer:
This happens to everyone, don't feel alone. Just text them and ask to hang out. If they say no, ask why. If they say yes, act like you used to with them. Don't make it awkward by being different. Have you thought about the reason the friendship died? You may want to figure that out first. Good luck.
How to tell my parents I want to go onto the pill?
in
I want it not for it's contraceptive benefits, but instead I hear it helps with clearing up acne and regulating your period? How do I get my parents to understand this when they're strict. Also what do I say to my doctor?
Answer:
Pretty mcuh tell them your reasons, and have plausible research and reasons at hand. But just so you know, BC doesnt exactly solve those problems, it CAN, but in other cases it can make your period worse and acne worse. It just plain changes your hormones, so watch out. And you dont want that stuff in your body for a long time, its not natural. And be aware, when you go off it, you are due for an acne flare up unless you are prepared to control your hormones by eating and exercisnig correclty. Just do plenty of research before you decide, and discuss it with your parents.
I wanted to for a while for the same reasons, but I ended up not doing it beucase of side effects and thee fact that i didnt feel right screwing up my body.

How to convince my parents to allow me to drive?
in
I already have my license, I am 16. I have a 4.3 GPA. I don't do any stupid things. Car insurance will only be around 50 bucks a month so money won't be a problem.
But my parents keep saying "I need more experience" or "I don't trust you" or other lame excuses. I want to drive by myself so I won't have to depend on my parents to drive me everywhere.
Answer:
Their excuses are not lame. As much as teenagers hate to learn this the fact is that your brain won't be completely developed until around age 25. Mine was the same. At 16 you're far more likely to do stupid things or simply make a mistake that experience and watching others would keep you from making.
Your parents are the one to pay the penalty if you screw up. They'll be the ones to put you in a box underground to rot and spend the rest of their days hating themselves for letting you drive. Divorce is a common occurrence and less likely so suicide is a possibility when children die like this.
Would you take that chance with your child? With your pet? Not likely. If you lived on a farm and drove to a village 10 miles away it would be a different story but living in a city or urban area is very dangerous. Although its difficult to see now the day will come when you see the wisdom of their decision.
You're 16 - you've got 60 years of driving or more ahead of you. You can wait until your parents think you're ready. That why God gave them to you.
How to persuade my parents to let me get a nose stud?
in
I really want a nose stud but my mum and dad have both said no, just a tiny one but they still won't let me! How can I persuade them to?
Answer:
Hey stop giving her shit you worthless pr|cks! She didn't ask for your opinion!
Listen girl if you want one then you go for it! (: I don't think that nose studs look trashy at all, i think they look cute (:
Convincing your parents is the hardest bit, and considering they've already say no that'll make it even more difficult :/
What you've got to do is just ask them like once a week, and outline the reasons why you want it. Offer to make a deal, so for example you'll pay for it yourself, keep it clean, etc.
But whatever their answer is, DON'T argue back or go against their word, because otherwise you'll lose their trust and then karma will come back to bite you in the ass.
It's a tough battle to win, but hey if not then just wait till you're old enough to sign the papers yourself (:
I've wanted my helix pierced for like, 4 years now, and my parents still say no :/ i'm a good kid i don't rebel i get good grades etc. But yeah to them piercings are taboo :/
So some things in life you just have to live without until you're older (:
Oh, and also, as you might have depicted from the other answers. There will always be people who will judge you, and you should expect that, but NEVER let them influence your decision, otherwise they'll just play you like a puppet.
I hope i could help you out, sorry there's not much i could do, but that's the way life is with these types of concepts (:
