    Well i just came back from spending a year in Yerushalayim where it snowed 3 times,and had power outages. No one NEEDS anything. but its a good idea to bring something that would keep one warm.

    Just because she is getting married doesnt mean your relashenship will have to stop. it most liekly wont be the same as before,for she will be a married woman,but she will still want and need friends. Dont let her feel bad about dating or marriage because you will miss her,tell her you are os excited for her nexr stage and look forward to being able to help her,or encourage when or if she will need,dont make her feel bad about it.

    start wtih the mindset now,as you ahve.that its not forever but just differnt.you will be friends,just she will have a ultimate best friend as well when she gets married

    well,you have to find out about the girls,thats really teh key thing.semanaries may say they are looking for this and this…or have that…but it all depends on the girls that go and will go with you. find out some people who have gone in the past or who are there now in any sems you are looking into.

    are you in your first of second year?

    you should really talk to someone you trust about how you feel,maybe a older friend. Its not easy to decided such things especially when it effects you so much and could change alot,but you wont really get teh chance of sem again

    shopping613- they have a point,its ment as a little thing to take a bit of steam off,and to relax a bit adn find out news and thoughts of others not as a place to live yoru life,for me it would be much easier not hveing to leave my room cause as you said Jews can be mean,but i do because its a part of growing up and a way to just get over what we have to as apart of the human race 🙂 kids go otd of their own accord most times,if we wanted we could find nice people,but there are other reasons people choose not to stay frum or “jewish”,trust me. all the best,hope you arnt to offended:'(

    well lets see,do you think its a sin to make yoru kids feel like dirt? To swear at them and when you lift your arm up for your child to jump up in fright? to cause a child to hate their parents so much because how they cause them to feel? why do you doubt it,do you believe in hitting kids to “help” discipline them?

    Let me tell you,you cacht more bees with honey then vineger! Im right now bawling my eyes out 2 min to shabbos,a parent of mine is having my otd sibling do mutkzah on shabbos and when i try to say somethign another siblings says to drop it,it wont make a diffrence. Its all a sin,its all assur!!!! and it all should stop!!!!!!!!!!!

    WIY- Im so glad you actually asked this! I feel alot of females especially frum ones have been putting way to much time into their looks,especially makeup. When i put on i always try to remeber one thing, make up isnt supposed to make you look beautful its to enhance what Hashem has already given you. If i would put aton on and people didnt recignize me of course i would feel like a fraud, but if i put just enough on to boost my self esteem a bit and present myself better then why not?

    shopping613-im sure its nothing personal.

    Smile and laughter

    Is what I used to know

    Until that faitful day

    I had such a blow

    I saw you as you were

    Doing as you pleased

    You felt you would only be hurting yourself

    But how could you not relize if you hurt so to me

    You made me promise not to tell

    To keep their minds at ease you said

    I agreed although I knew the truth

    You just wanted to be loved and cared

    Still time went on

    So did the charade

    And as the layers of secrets piled on you

    It became harder to keep tame

    I did not wish to add to your pain

    You knew what were doing and the reason why

    So all I could do was quietly watch and cry

    I so wanted to cry out, to plead to you

    To come back and leave your nonsense behind

    Because I know of the great pain inside

    I knew only to well

    Just seeking what all crave once in a while

    I wait here for you still

    I will always be here when you return

    No matter what happens

    I know you will always be that person I know inside

    Yes you may try to hide it

    You may even think all forget

    But forever and always ill remember

    The amazing person you really are

    PBT- i agree with you, a great fear i have is that when i get older how i will deal with things and how my ADHD will affect my life,and future family I”YH. and while the adults def need to have things for them,it is improtant for something to be for kids,because people make fun of it all the time(yes adults do all the time as well) and they dont know what they are saying or understand add or adhd,and neither do some kids who have it and its a very sad situation!

    teenagers get frustrated with this because when its said its usually said along the lines of adults saying they where also teens at one point or that teens can get annoying…. sometimes peopel feel like what htey go through others dont know or its hard to describe and when some peole say things like “your acting like a teenager” they feel they are trying to say they know how it feels

    survivor- im so sorry how your childhood was and how it affected your current life. Im crying from what you said, i hope that each of your siblings should find better ways to live their lives and to cope:) and your right about it not being about winning,but thats a major thing in my life i was never able to study with anyone and i have ADHD and it would have really helped me with my grades cause anytime i got lower then a B my mom would be upset and ask why i dont try harder.

    thank you all so much for taking so much time and having so much concern for me.

    saysme-its actually that way for me,no matter teh topic it always turns into a yelling frenzy,im not sure how but its not worth it to try anymore,i have given up with that. yes sw33t also put my feelings into words to haha. thank you so much for your kind words again on how im acting and my decisions,i am totally open to anyone who wants to give adivice no or anytime, i might not change what i do but the more info i get and opinons will help justify i feel what i do.

    sharp-thank you,you really make me smile when i read that 🙂
