I’m 13 and Clark’s mother thinks I have a problem with her son. The problem is that she thinks I’m troubling Clark a lot and making Clark get worse grades.
I have never done anything to Clark to make her think that. She also asks our teacher to change my seat so that I can’t talk to Clark in class. But I don’t agree.
I’m pretty sure I am a true friend of Clark, and I don’t want to leave him because I need his help with my math. What should 1 do?
Jill
Dear Jill,You didn’t tell me Clark’s opinion, but I can give you two suggestions. The first is to move to another seat. Take a step back so Clark can have some breathing room. The second is to try to make friends with Clark’s mother. She may think her son is spending too much time on your math.
Good luck!
