She has a message for you.

Ninjaawsome, lying isn't okay. My mom is a great mom, the best mom ever, and she was going to do anything to help you. It's really bad that you lied to her and to the other lady. Don't do it again. It's not cool. If you have a real problem, my mom will help you, but you can't lie okay?

Me again.

Yes, it will be hard to trust you, but it's not impossible. Tell the truth and you won't have to worry about anything. If you do need help, we're here, and we can and will get help to you if you can't get it yourself. But you have to be honest with us. We can't help you if you lie. Okay?

Remember, I'm giving you a second chance. But screw up that second chance, and you're going to wish the cops had come to get you, because they'll be easier to deal with. ;)

Again I am grateful for the chance. And I swore to tell the truth now.

And be careful when you are on the Internet. People can track you down very easily. Be careful whom you chat with and what you say. Okay?

For Wondergirl and Atly Only

Ok this is a topic for wondergirl and alty, I promised I would reply to them but I don't know how. Anyway, if you read this wondergirl and alty, our relationship is getting stronger. We have made a time table to make it clear whose responsibilities is whose and I follow it like you said to. I also will not forget the lesson I learned from you and atyl.

I'm here. I am not a "him" -- I am Wondergirl!

Now, tell me what you and your parents agreed to. Please give me some details.

Another lesson to learn. You can start a thread asking for a specific persons help, or dedicate it to a specific person, but anyone that's a member of this site can answer if they so choose. :)

I'm glad you came back to post. It's amazing that things have changed so quickly in your home. Makes me think that things weren't nearly as bad as you reported, that it was mostly due to your behavior.

So, how have things changed? How are things really going? Anything new to report?

I am sorry. Okay so like we had a talk with my parents, and we agreed that everyone had to make compromises like everyone had to change in order for the best to occur. So they said that they would help me and try to support me even more if I take up my reposibilities since I'm growing up and that I need to tell the truth for this relationship to occur.

Thanks for the new lesson! Yea you were right though. Things have changed drastically like I no longer fell the anger I felt towards them when like they like lost their trust. I agree with you though probably due to my reported.

Okay. That's a bunch of gobbledy-gook and I have no clue what it means.

What are your responsibilities and what is going to change?

Are you in 4th grade?

Yea do feel free. At our school the last thing we learned was about Santa ana and the Alamo in social studies.

Grr, I hate columbus for mixing up indians. See I'm an actually Indian, and he thought that America was India. That goofy guy.

A 4th grader... I miss 4th graders!

Fourth graders are required to learn about Texas Indians too, and I wrote a book that Texas teachers use to help teach about all the various tribes.

Well, I do want hear from you now and then as to how things are going at home. And NO MORE LYING or making up stories!

Does your mom make samosas?

And, since you write books, do you know anything about the STAAR for 4th graders? Why did they change it?

Like when I was in second grade it was the Taaks for the 3rd-5th graders but its now Staar.

I don't know why they did. I think the state educators want to be sure students are learning everything that is important to know.

Our teachers said that the person in charge of our district (min is Coppell) is trying to ban the test since the high schooler are going to have to take like 10 test. Im scared about high school. She said that there were a lot of hard Ap's. (what are those)?

AP = advanced placement, probably looking ahead to getting into college and being able to skip courses that were done well in high school.

Here is from the STAAR site -- "At high school, however, grade-specific assessments will be replaced with 12 end-of-course (EOC) assessments: Algebra I, geometry, Algebra II, biology, chemistry, physics, English I, English II, English III, world geography, world history, and U.S. history."

If someone does well on the high school STAAR tests, he/she won't have to take those classes in college.

Don't be scared. Just study every day in school, now and in high school. Don't get lazy and blow it off.

Thank you for coming back to let me know things are improving. I hope you stay on top of this and ask for our help if there are more problems.

It sounds like you and your parents are back on track. That's great news.

I have a ten year old daughter, but we don't live in the US, so the education system is a bit different. Also, she's in grade 5. My son is in grade 8, next year will be the tough year for him, the year that his grades can really determine his career. What he gets placed in in high school will depend on his 9th grade marks. He's very nervous about it.

We all go through it, and even if you're worried, you just have to study hard, ask questions, and do your best. You write very well for your age, so you're obviously smart. Keep it up. :)
