What are some things for 11-year-olds to do when bored?
If I’m reading this right, you have an 11 year old and you don’t want him (her) to be bored. Well that is his issue not yours.If I ever dared to tell my parents “I’m bored” they will for sure find me something to do: Clean my room, wash the driveway, fix something. Try that approach and you will have an 11 year old that will never get bored again.It is ok to get bored; it pushes creativity, problem solving, imagination, etc. Make them solve THEIR issue. Do you think that is unfair? What do they do when you get bored? Do they even care if you are bored?That doesn’t mean you should ignore them, if they tell you I want to go to the park, I want to build something and I need materials, I’m not sure how to make X, etc. You can help them. But I have a 9yo that loves to say “I’m bored” and I will start with my list:> Kid: I’m bored> Me: Read a book> Kid: NO> Paint something> NO> Clean your room> NO> So what you want to do?> I want you to play Minecraft with me> I’m [Working | Watching TV | Resting]> BUT I WANT YO TO PLAY MINECRAFT WITH MEEE!!> NO!!You can say “what a horrible parent”. No, I’m not. I take care of my kids, I play with them, provide them colors, books, modeling clay, XBOX, PC, Tablet, etc. I will help them if they have an idea, but I am not their toy. It is not my fault they are bored.When I was a kid I never got bored, and my parents were not in charge of keeping me happy/busy. I had way less amenities than kids today have. They don’t have the right to get bored (or sit in front of a screen all day). If they are bored is their choice and you should do nothing about it. If you do that, suddenly you will see they will be more creative (and they will probably break stuff) but they will be less bored.
FLAT CHEST :'( "breast buds" for over three years?
No, the bras didn't damage your breasts - breast size is almost entirely genetic. It's possible that they'll get bigger, and it's possible that they won't. Some women don't reach their full... um, potential until they're pretty much done with puberty. When all's said and done, though, can I give you some advice based on my years of experience? Most guys honestly don't care how big you are. Sure, especially at your age, some guys will tease you about it - but they tease the girls who are really big, too. They tease because teenage boys are idiots. Just don't fall for any pill or tea that promises to make your bust size increase. They work by making you retain water... sure, your breasts will get bigger but so will the rest of you. You'll look doughy and spongy all over, and that's not a good look for anyone.
The Republicans seem to be saying that our soldiers are protecting us from terrorists in Iraq?
You can't fight terrorists with military action. We tried for 50 years in Northern Ireland.

Dealing with an ignorant dad?
I'm a 14 year old child with loving parents, but skipping past, that, they can really get on my nerves Especially as of recently. My dad is extremely protective and does some annoying things at times. But now it's kind of getting out of hand in my eyes. The two burning examples being: 1. I'm in a game community in which it's difficult to get along if you don't make friends in it. I've made a few friends in that community that are actually friends. We use discord/skype to chat. My dad, however, realized that I'm speaking with these "people", as he calls them, and immediately told me to unfriend and block them, going on about how I'd become a drop out/do drugs/become a suicide bomber. (I'm not even joking.) He then proceeded to go mute while I reluctantly removed them, telling them that I'd find out something to do. Some time later he found me and gave me an article and told me to read it out loud, the article being about an 11 year old girl that was kidnapped after encountering an online friend and arranging to meet up. I know these are real issues that happen in the world, but... I have common sense. He seems to think that I'm this innocent child that wouldn't know better, but I'm not retarded. I know how life works. I know when things get sketchy.
