Annie Fox for Teens... Hey, Terra!

Hi there… How’s it going? Probably not all that great or you wouldn’t be here looking for help. Well, you’ve come to the right place. Teens have been writing to me since 1997 because they know I give good advice. If you’ve got a problem with friends, so-called friends, a bf/gf, a parent, or anything else that’s confusing… email me. I can help you sort out your feelings. No matter what’s going on, you always have choices. Some choices make things worse. You don’t want to go there. Instead, let me help you figure out your next best move.

In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

"I can't help it if I've got an attitude!"

February 18, 2012

For those who've ever been told you've got a problem with your attitude, read this email I got today. It might help you.

BROKEN HEARTED GIRL: Hey Terra, my bf used to constantly warn me that if I didn't change my attitude he would break up with me. Being the type of person I am, I just disregarded it and thought that he would always be there for me. Well, obviously I was wrong because he just broke up with me! He says he still wants us to be close friends, but I don't think I can take that because I still want to be with him. And what if he gets another girlfriend?! I'm going to be overly depressed like I am right now. So what do I do??

TERRA (aka Annie): Hi Broken Hearted Girl. What do you think he meant when he talked about your "attitude"?

BROKEN HEARTED GIRL: I really dont know. But everyone says that you can tell when I'm on my period because I am literally a "bitch" to everyone. More »

“I might be pregnant!”

Hey Terra,

Well I was kind of wondering if I'm pregnant because me and my boyfriend had sex on Thursday and without a condom. I'm really scared because my boyfriend is kind of controlling. When I told him that I might be pregnant he told me to get an abortion or he is going to leave me. PLEASE HELP!

Help
