Dear M Girl,
I've been having some bad days lately. My dad is starting a business and he's ALWAYS gone! I admit I miss him! Since it's under construction my mom is gone helping him, too. So it is basically my little brother and me. I just want things to be normal again....... I just miss my family hanging out. What can I do to make it better? I just have SO much stress toward everything now. I just need advice about how to handle all this.

Hey Mary,
Being under lots of stress can sometimes be really rough. Just remember that your parents are doing the best for you and your brother. So right now, my advice to you is to do the best you can to help out around the house and taking care of your brother. I think you should also talk to your parents about how you're feeling. Maybe you guys can plan a family night so you can all spend time together -- dinner and a movie to catch up could be fun? I hope it all works out for you!
XOXO
M Girl
