Today I did something I didn't mean to do. It was in school that it happened. Today the fire alarm was pulled off and everyone left. This is where the problem started....people tried to leave by car when suddenly he moved out of the way and I thought it was then time to leave because the school was on fire and it was 20 minuites. When I left to go home (I called my mom first to tell her) now later on the big problem happens somebody calls to tell my mom that I skipped school and now she doesn't know who the belive.....
If things go bad I may be gone for a while....and I am scared....I need your help guys.....

Wo that is....quite a horrible predicament, my best advice is to tell the school exactly what happened and they might help with your Mom's decision.

Oh no, that's terrible. What a predicament. When in doubt, say the trust, like Yoshiken said. if you are honest, then your mom should believe you. That's all I can do, though I wish I could do more.

Wow. that is terrible, Rogue. I guess just follow what Leo and Yoshiken are telling you. Like the quote says: Honesty is the best policy. I wish i could think up of some more good answers, though.

umm... to be honest have always helped me out, Ewen if I get all the guilt, I still can walk away whit a good conscience, but what exactly did you do? you pulled the fire alarm? It ain't real clear to me what happened you see, and if we know: we might can help you even further but what happened must have been hard to tackle though. I did ALOT of real dumb things when I was 3 years smaller: I was in a forbidden place called "knakki" where they bring old, crashed use less cars. I was there to break the windows whit my brother, and it was an accident, I fell trough a window making a rift over 20 CM long on my leg... and it looked like an U, explaining what happened and why I did it ( that was cause my brother was nagging about I was afraid to go, and I had to show him ) didn't make my mom mad, in fact it made her glad I confessed so fast, and now it is all right. so tell the Truth, even if it is hard. It is for the best.

Hmm... ask a trustworthy friend to tell her instead, he/she will surely tell her the exact problem and the situation for what happened. However, if she doesn't believe your friend, get your teacher to explain what had happened instead, parents can't not believe what a teacher says, it's sort of in the constitution for parents to believe the exact words from a teacher...
This sorta happened to me as well, a fire alarm went off back in my school days, and we thought it was an actual fire so me and my friends started walking home. I returned home, told my mother what happened, and she believed me... until hometime when my brother walked in, i thought he stopped at a friends house until around hometime, but he said he was at school. Anyway, he turned to my mum and asked how i got home without taking the school bus home... she gave a reason, brother said there wasn't a real fire, so, thats when my mum led to believe i was skipping school... all i did was invite my friends round, and got them to tell her what happened... after that, we were fine and she believed me. Just a shame that my mother was disgusted at the fact i didn't hang around outside of school until they were sure that there was an actual fire... but i wasn't taking any chances, hehe. Ah well, i didn't get punished though.
Anyway, just don't worry about it, if you are telling the truth, nothing bad will happen. She may be a little cross at the fact you didn't hang about until they were sure it was a fire or not, but regardless, she can't punish you for it.

When situations like this occur, always take into consideration that the best possible solution is that in which you utter words of truth. Of course, your parents will always be on two diffrent limbs. While they should trust their children, they are also on the road of trusting a reliable source. Now you could always wonder why your parents don't take everything you say to heart, and this is mainly for the reason that they want to make sure the best floats in your corner. If they place to much trust in yourself, then one might find their acts becoming harsher and harsher in reality. As opposed, if trust is levered out to a questionable level, then there will be two sides to the equation. Imagine a probelm in one of your classes, where both sides need to be equaled out to make sure the correct outcome is established. Such works in this small fashion, you need both angles to make sure that each side is a true variable. Parents, as they will come to do, need two sources to test the other over. This way, when the time rolls around; they can tell what you were up to and why you were doing it. While as children, this is more than just bothersome, it's something that is done to make sure you as the child don't do something against your own will.
Life's bound to be full of times when one won't listen to your word. You might know the full set behind the event that took place, but any words you might utter will seem unvaluable to those that hear them. Then there will be times that everything you remark shall go in all ears and stay there. But don't ever let that get you down. Just recall and constantly remember that you know what's trully going on. If the truth is there, than it shall somehow wind to the top from where it trully sprouted. It's with that, that you'll be able to uncover from the grime and show the background to the scene. It adds a small glimmer, to come out of the distrust and show what you're more than ever made of. There is always something there to hold you back, and something there to let you foward. When your parents don't trust you, do as Toshi said, get your friends and those you know to help you out. Friends will always be there to help you in times as such. If they knew what took place, they would vouche to make sure of the story that was told at hand.
That's one quite of an event for just a day to take place though. Good thing you got home without any hassles and such. Don't let what's taken place weigh down your mind either. In time it will become to make itself clear to those who question the authority that was taken. It was nothing more but a misunderstanding. If you thought that there was a fire, and those were heading off campus, then there will more than likely be a way for your story to make clear sense soon enough. Don't feel like no one will listen to you, more than ever your mother should beg to you an ear in due time. If anything, she'll weigh the sides and know whom to listen to. Don't always feel that all shall lean to the higher authority. You have always been a part of her family. In that essence, your word is something with more value behind it than an establishment could withstand over.
Times like this happen, just don't fret over it and keep yoruself cool. No one wants to hear of you getting rancid over such turn of events. More than likely, things will come to be in due time. All do wish you the best in this misplacement. But don't feel like you did the wrong thing either. If all the signs pointed in that direction, than you more than ever did what was pulling you. At times situations like that are bound to occur and reel you in. There's nothing one can really do to avoid the pull that they string you in. So, relax and just wait to see what shall come. Remember to stick with your story and the truth though. Some say the "Truth shall prevail" while not always true, in a situation that occured as this it might come to play itself out in the end right for you.
