PENNY'S ADVISE
Dear Penny, I share a bedroom with my brother. We are very different. Sharing a room with him makes me crazy. There is another room in the house that I would like to move to, but my parents say it’s for visitors. What should I do?
I think you should tell your parents how you feel. They should understand. You need to have some space now that you are getting older. Ask your parents why you can’t move to the other room and listen carefully to what they say. Love, Penny
Dear Penny, My little brother won’t let me do my homework. Every time I sit down at my desk, he comes into my room and says, ‘Come and play with me.’ I tell him that I’m busy but he doesn’t listen. What should I do?
I think you should tell your parents about the problem. Tell them that you really need to be quiet in your bedroom. Ask your parents to talk to your brother. Say that you need to study alone. You shouldn’t get angry with your brother. He doesn’t understand. Good luck! Love, Penny
Dear Penny, I’ve got a problem. I don’t think my friend likes me anymore. We used to have lunch together every day, but now she’s started playing football at lunchtime and doesn’t want to eat with me. I like football but I’m not very good at it. I’m so angry. What should I do?
I think you should talk to your teacher. Tell him that you are unhappy. Perhaps he can give you some extra football practice. You should also talk to your friend. Tell her that you miss her. Good luck! Love, Penny
