| Definitely gather support. Nobody should have to share the weight on their own. |

| My school year ends this Friday, and I'm really excited. I'm also thinking of those movies where at the end of the school year the kids throw away all of their school stuff. I would love to do that, but that would be wasting money, so, unfortunately, I won't But school ends for the summer anyway! :m... |

| I'm not too sensitive when it comes to jokes. However, if something about it really bothers me, I just leave myself out of the conversation. I also suggest if it gets too bad, tell an adult you trust, or talk to one of your closest friends. I also don't like standing up to someone directly, so I wou... |

| Maybe suggest an alternative. Usually, when I do something bad, I work with my parents to make sure what happened doesn't happen again. Otherwise, they just restrict something I really enjoy, typically computer privileges. I haven't been officially grounded for a year and a half, but I still remembe... |

| You're right. You don't have to be friends with everyone. But don't just accept it when someone is unfriendly to you. If they bother you, you could talk to your boss about the situation. And if they don't listen, then you decide what you feel is right for you. I'm not an expert, but that's what I wo... |

Usually, I just hide out in my room until I feel ready to face life again. I also listen to music but I'm not sure if that would work in your situation. Just a thought!  |

| I really don't get some people, either. There's one girl at my school who will flip out when there's something that disrupts her "happy mood." Like, in Language Arts, we're reading a book for our final grade and she refuses to read it because she heard someone dies in the book. She said sh... |

| In high school, whenever the teacher told us to form groups, I usually just stayed where I was because I was too shy to go to anyone. The teacher had to put me with a group. I also didn't raise my hand to answer questions very often. But I guess my classmates felt similarly about it, because it wou... |
