I’m a 15 year old aspiring ghost hunter. Obviously, I don’t have enough of a budget to be able to afford some of the high-tech ghost hunting gear. My parents obviously think it’s just a "stage". So i’m going to try and be as resourceful as possible.

Do you think i’ll be able to use the camera, video, and voice recording systems on my phone to possibly record any paranormal activity?

Well my first problem with my mom is that she expects me to be a genius. When I was in 3rd – 6th grade I got straight A’s. But at the end of 6th I started falling off. I realized that…She never says good job or is even phased that I get A’s. All she says is "Well you supposed to get straight A’s so Im not surprised." But when my cousin goes up from a F to a D its like its party time.

So about 2-3 weeks ago was the first week of school. That friday we had a Science pretest. I never really learned science so the test was challenging for me. And the CPS system has this new thing called parent portal so the parents can go online and see the grades. Well my mom went on and saw my grade was 67%.

So she said " How are you failing the first week of school? That means you weren’t trying hard enough." And she turned my phone off.

So since she wanted to be like that, I asked her if I could be in Science Club after school so that I can learn more Science. She told me no. So when I do bad I get in trouble but when I try to do good, I cant do it. I have given up on school because nothing i try to do pleases her.

So I wanna know, how can I approach her and tell her how I feel.

Question 2..

She has a new live in boyfriend. He is nice and stuff but my mom puts him before me.
Background Info:
. I would be at my grandma’s house all weekend and when I leave my house the dishes are all clean. When I come back sunday, Its a sink full of dishes and they want ME to wash them.

So most times I just go in my room and dont do them. Its like it’s no point in even arguing with her. At the end of the day, she could careless about whats fair!

So I want to know how do I let her know that I am feeling neglected? (BTW she is slightly racist. So if I tell her I feel neglected she will tell me that I am acting like a white child)

Question 3…..

My mom is always tellin my business to everyone she knows. Then wants to get mad when I dont talk to her anymore. And she likes to snoop n read my diary.
Background Info:
: I expressed me feelings to her and then I heard she told my aunt and she told my cousins. So I decided I will not tell her my personal problem. I’ll write it down. So after I wrote almost a whole book of my feelings, I find out that she found my diary and read it. Not only that but she ripped out all the bad stuff. So I just said forget it. So I started going on websites like Tagged and MySpace so that I can write what I want. But she found my Tagged and deleted it. My cousin told my mom I had a Myspace but I lied and said I deleted. So after that… I started talking on the phone. But she gets mad at me for that because she isnt very fond of the way me n my friends act. Like we get loud and stuff. We talk about boys and other stuff girls do.

So now she always asks me questions about my life. I try to tell her but some of the stuff, She gets mad over and she just wants to shut me out.

So Yahoo….please help me. I just want for my mother to stop treating me like a problem child. She has me feeling depressed. I cant talk to her without bein Criticized on what I do. I feel like Im all alone.

The ultimate question is How can I get her to listen to me, and stop putting off my problems and issues as stupid stuff?

Thank you alot. Best Answer gets 10 points

I dont want to let my parents know im doing this. So if i do, will my parents know if they look into my phone account? Would this be listed as "this date, this time, called to mexico…" something like that? And i dont want them to know i have an international card either. Would that also be listed? I know nothing about these stuffs so please help me out ! thanks.

ok i want to know is there any program that halps you make your own software… for example my parents have a like a snack shop, and we take inventrory at night to see how much was actually sold, but the thing is… its tooo much work…

for example cups.
in the morning there were 115 cups, we added 200 at night there were only 30 left. each cup was worth 50cents…

115+200=315
315-30=285
285 x 0.50= 2.50

this is just an example… but we have like 600 products and to be doing all that calculation is alot, and i wanted to know is there any software that can help us

Thank you

Today Millions of People are Happy with their Health Care Plan – others are not happy with their HMO’s – Others are not happy with the Monthly and or Quarterly payments.

BUT at the end of the day EVERYONE has Health Care Access. No One in the USA is turned down from treatment and or surgery’s.

So why would President Obama want to instill Health Care for everyone with the understanding that your Doc has to do a Cost Analysis ONLY. The Care is only what the cost Analysis States which has nothing to do with the kind of Care we have right now.

In the USA Americans who are perfectly healthy who choose not to work and or work for their or pay for their health care want our current system to change to Cost Analysis Care.

1)
Do you feel everyone in the USA including the elderly and babies should be be denied Care under Cost Analysis Care for the sake of some who are unwilling to pony up their fair share?

2)
Is President Obama also wrong for wanting Cost Analysis Care?

3)
Would you rather have our Gov work on keeping our health care as is and work on lower costs, make HMO’s work and making those (not the elderly, vets or disabled) who can work and or pay for health care take some self responsibility?
All American Dude : Maybe your school or parents need to be sued.

IN the USA it is illegal to turn anyone away from health care/surgery’s etc….

Even illegals get free health care.

I’m going to Japan for 4 months. If I have skype installed on my iphone, can my parents call me from their mobile to my skype account? Do I need a special number? I’m really confused on how this works.

My mom’s home was up for foreclosure. My parents are divorced and my father is still on the mortgage.With my father’s permisson i called the company to find out what his options were( He has cancer and could not make the phone call). My question is can the USDA Rural(mortgage company) send my mom the transcript of what was said during that phone call. She was not aware of the call untill today/

I am majoring in business management with a concentration in accounting and information systems. My parents think this is a bad idea because business degrees are a dime a dozen. Are they right?

My friend just called me and asked me this and i told her i would look it up. She met some guy on Omegle, which is a video chat website. He’s from some other state. She needs to know if her parents will see the calls. I mean she hasn’t done anything really bad just talk to the guy but still…
Oh and she has Sprint i think.

she said she put spyware on it and that it records everything i do but i don’t know if she’s bluffing
i know that theres other software specifically for parents so i was wondering if there’s something i can do to check to make sure that i don’t have anything like that on my computer.

I’m moving to Italy and sadly (tear tear) my new phone, the Samsung Moment won’t work there. Atleast from what my parents say.
So I’ll get a new phone there and I want to get one that can be used on a US cell phone network (ex Sprint or Verison) when I move back.
So what phones that can be used in Europe and the US?

Okay, my mom is a control freak. How much you believe in parents being strict does not matter to me. You do not know the heights my mom will reach to know my exact movements. All of my friends agreed. She has a facebook but she does not want me to. Well….I made one at my friends house and I trusted google chrome’s incognito mode enough to access it at my house. The next day she demanded my username and password and told me that she has a tracking software that detected it. Look I know I shouldn’t keep stuff from my mom but I need a social life and you DONT know her. I was wondering how I can access the tracking software I believe to be SpectorSoft. Please dont give me the "Your mother knows best"

Before reading, please do not judge me and please only answer if you’re going to give honest answers! I am NOT making this up, so bare with me.

I am 27, just finished my GED and was debating whether to go to college. I live at home with the folks, and have my very own bedroom- with home phone! I never have owned things like my own phone before. I find myself calling my girlfriends late at night and playing with the phone cord on one finger. Anyways…My family sat me down some time ago and said they were tired of me living at home wasting my life. I was a bit offended, but listened.

My family told me they saved up ,000 for me to go to college, and that I should try to apply to some community schools first. I agreed, and was excited to already declare my major in front of them- business, with a concentration in finance.

I was accepted into a college, and my parents then deposited the funds into my bank account. They wanted me to be responsible for my own management, since it was my major after all.

But right before the first semester started, my best friend Besty took me on a trip to a casino (we live in Wisconsin). I sat down at a slot machine and put in . As I played the machine, I won! I won 0. I couldn’t believe it. I figured if it was this easy to play slots, I could earn thousands of dollars at the casino and save up to pay for an apartment. As the evening dwindled on, I sadly was losing…I lost over ,000. Betsy understood, and told me we still had one more day. But I was out of money. Then it dawned on me- I still had the ,000 my parents had put in my other account. And I happened to have the debit card on me. So I withdrew a quick ,000 from the account and played on. I lost all of it. As I made my way back to the ATM, Betsy told me to stop, and that I was making a huge mistake. I told her to mind her damn business- it was MY life and I knew what I was doing.

I ended up losing ,000 in one night on slot machines. It took me about six hours, with a dinner break inbetween at their tasty buffet. I was in shocked horror as Betsy and me returned home. I had no money left for school. I called my parents to explain what happened, and to demand ,000- ,000 for school, and ,000 for a trip back to the Casino to try to make up Apartment Saving Money, but they flat-out refused! They told me I was cut off, and that I was very stupid for gambling the money. I was so mad at them calling me stupid, and for denying me the money.

Was I wrong to do this? I know gambling is addicting, but I had a system! I’m unique- I’m not like these other people who throw all their loot away. I was on a winning streak until the end. And My parents are awful to cut me off and tell me they’re done dealing with me. Thoughts?

Dr. Nortel, the biology teacher, called on Nancy, "Can you tell me the part of the body that, under the right conditions, expands to six times it`s normal size, and state the conditions."

Nancy gasped and said in a huff, "Why, Sir ? That is an inappropriate question and my parents are going to hear of it when I get home!" She sat down, red-faced.

"Susie, can you tell me the answer?" asked Dr. Nortel.

"The pupil of the eye, under dark conditions" said Dr. Nortel.

"Correct. Now Nancy, I have three things to say to you. First, you have not studied your lesson. Second, you have a dirty mind. And third, you are going to be disappointed someday!"
