You're selfish beyond words.

Well Anthony: Aside from the fact that you are using the same name as I am and the fact that you are only 14 - I will abstain from making any adverse comment/s on this insight into your "troubled" past. \nYou seem to me to have expressed a need or desire to get these incidents out into the open for whatever reason and that is admirable - I hope that you feel better for doing so.\nLet's just hope you have matured enough to not to make the same mistakes again and work your way to becoming an effective member of your community. Good luck oh name sake of mine.

Or, maybe they kind of knew that you didn't really mean things in a bad way, or the way it sounded.  I have had conversations with people like what you describe (me, being the one who you think should be pissed off), and I just considered it something that they didn't mean, or not how it sounded.  If, later on, it really was meant in the bad way, I would find out about in some way or another.

It's great that you acknowledge your problem and want to resolve it. First you must reprogram yourself (so to speak). You have to learn how to control how you react to people. I think you may just need to feel like you are being listened to, and if you don't that could cause frustrations to mount and fuses to become short. Try to address something before it becomes a big problem. Change your approach. If you're losing your cool with kids, try getting on their level and look them eye to eye and sincerely talk to them and tell them why certain things are important and that you don't want to get upset or yell at them but if they don't respect your wishes it could cause you to get upset and that they can help prevent that by showing that they are listening and respecting you. Just remember you can't control other ppl but you can control how you react to them.

I have a friend who claims not to like children, but when she is around them she is fairly tolerant. I, personally, don't like ill-behaved, "bratty" children, but I really think the blame lies with the parents who have not taught them any better.\n\nSometimes I think we forget what it is like to be a child. Often I wonder how many of those who are insensitive or claim to hate children had a troubled childhood themselves. Then they technically have a problem with childhood, not children.

I hope that I'm understanding your question....and speaking from a personal view I have to say no.  Being in foster care dose not mean that you are a delinquent.  I was not placed in foster care through any fault of my own, and of course I was still labeled as a "problem child" just because I was in foster care.  I do not have any numbers to give you because I don't know of any.  I don't want to put too much of my business out there so you can IM me if you wish.

What makes you say they think you're worthless? Can you read their minds? Sounds to me you have a case of low self esteem, unless you are a horrible person I'm sure they all don't think that.  Find something you're good at and get involved doing something that will make you feel better about yourself. Perhaps you're depressed. Speak with your doctor. Some medication and COUNSELING will help you out. The more I think about it that's exactly what you sound like. DEPRESSED. Get help.

You know what...don't consider what your parents say 2 u as their act of discouraging...rather bost up ur self confidence and take ur people's saying as an encoragement rather. You know ur personality better than any1 else and the second party 2 know well bout u is ofcourse ur family members. If they say that u lack in discipline then take it as a challenge....instead of making their remarks as ur weakness...make them ur strength....what I mean is try 2 bring the positive traits that ur people think u lack in n concentrate upon ur career. Be true to urself. If u really wanna become a doctor then look forward 2 it and make sure you have all the necessary qualities that a doc ought to have....like responsible,discipline,self-confidence etc.\nGood Luck!!

lil bro, you need to talk to your parents and teachers about this.\nabuse is abuse, and it's their job to deal with it, and help you.\ndon't listen to those that say to reply with violence. I don't think they read your question very well.\none answerer was right on that some kids (grown-ups too) try to make others feel bad to avoid dealing with how they feel about themselves.  keep that in mind. I know it sounds easy for me to say it, but try to not let it bother you. try to feel sorry for them instead of yourself,  obviously they're the ones with the problem.\ntalk to your parents, talk to your teacher.\nJake,  I really hope this helps. don't get bummed out.\nyou can write me if you need to . take care. peace

I've read lots of responses of that kind.  They're a dime a dozen.  You mustn't let vicious people upset you or cause you to have hard feelings toward others.  Be a lighthouse and show others how reasonable and imperturbable you can be.

I used to be afraid of being criticized because I know people can be rough. Just remember, no matter what anyone says to you, you will not die from it. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, gets criticized.

You should be ashamed of yourself.\nIf someone spoke this way about you, you would get angry.\nIs this the way you want to be treated?  Were your parents so backward (or perhaps related to each other so closely) that you were the only child to live?  Get my point?\nI looked at several of your postings.  You seem to be here to lash out at those who do not believe as you do.  This only reflects your lack of manners and perhaps a bigoted mind.  Those who would agree with you on this forum are also judging themselves for their lack of common sense and good taste.\nKeep this behavior in the company of like minded friends.  It is not suitable for a public forum.

When I was 14 I saw a kid beating up a chubby kid.  His friends were laughing at the chubby kid(big boned  lol)and they were hitting him.  All of these kids were skinny.  So I just couldnt take it anymore and started to seperate them.  I pushed the other kids off of him and started to swing some punches but they ran.  The kid that was getting bullied thanked me and said they always beat me up.  I felt so angry at those kids.  3 months later I saw the chubby kid again and he said that those skinny kids never hit him or talk to him anymore.\n\nI felt so happy :)  I felt GOOD inside and I still feel good!\n\nEDIT: Oh sorry I didnt see  "cultural" in your post.  But this story still kinda relates to this. I guess....

What happened? something did to trigger your change in behaviour, or was it a problem before but you managed to keep it reasonable?  Whichever, there is always a reason why people behave in particular ways; massive confidence knocks; bereavement; bullying, and don't think this is only a problem children suffer from, it can happen to anyone; try and work out what kicked it off and then find the appropriate help. It might be enough to just talk to someone, plenty of voluntary counselling services about but try and avoid 'message' counsellors; or if it is something more serious talk to your doctor for advice on specialist services.  These things are available and they work.  You have spotted this very early which gives you a head start and please remember that it is no disgrace to have a problem only to do nothing about it. Every single human being will need some sort of specialist help at sometime in their life. The world is an ever more complicated place and people were complicated enough even before that, so all power to you, very well done and Good Luck!
