D Dear Michelle, My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(骂人).I love her but I am ashamed of her.I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal,but it will be 5 years before I am 18 and legal. What am I supposed to do until then? Prisoner of a Crazy House Dear 7th Grader, I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feeings about her may change as you get older and mature(成熟). While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner,not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing, So,keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits. At the same time,try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes. Unfortunately, you are not alone.Many teens live in homes with immature,misguided, selfish parents. Those kids often feel lonely and separate from the rest of their friends because of their parents’ terrible deeds. But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school,and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference! Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own fine future.Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how surprising you really are. Best luck!
