    Just cause a stripper wants to marry you doesn't mean you should, young man.

    1. Just because you got pregnant doesn't mean you need to marry the loser!
    2. Eat healthier
    3. Lift weights
    4. Be happy! You can't change other people and the sooner you learn to live with others the easier life gets.

    Nothing. If I didn't have what happened to me before, I wouldn't be the person I am now, and I'm quite happy with who i am

    The relationship with your high school girlfriend ends in 2 months anyway, and your parents will respect your decision. Take the opportunity to be stationed in Italy.

    Just say no. Go to school. Enjoy your teenage years. Every choice you make now will affect your future.

    #1 Save yourself till marriage. Wait, I did tell myself that.
    #2 Go to college and get a degree. Wait I said that too but since I didn't listen to # 1, # 2 didn't happen.

    1) Don't go on comfort food binges with your mom when her and dad fight, it will only start an unhealthy food addiction.
    2) The neighborhood kids are not your friends. Stop following them around, the sooner the better.
    3) Don't go to church/youth group. Or at least don't go to the church your parents are going to. Nothing good will come of it.
    4) Don't stay silent when Ricky corners you and repeatedly harasses you in the back hallway after karate class.
    5) Don't go in that house alone while you wait for Jake to arrive. In fact, don't go in that house at all anymore. Never go back. And while you're at it just break up with Jake. He ends up cheating on you with a 16 year old anyway.
    6) Take the offer to stay in Okinawa.
    7) Just shell out the money for better fitting shoes. It will save you years of grief.
    8) Don't try to lift heavy on your own, without any experience or guidance. If you do, you'll rupture a disc and things just get worse for you physically from there.

    1) lose the booze
    2) take advantage of the college education Mom & Dad paid for; don't think you can major in Partying (see #1)
    3) don't think "things will change once we are married"
    4) find your passion and pursue it!!
