No matter how good your relationship is with your parent or guardian, there will be times when you'll feel more comfortable confiding in other adults. Even if you'd rather talk to friends about certain things, an adult may have more experience, be able to contact the right person or find the best resources to get help.
Ask for Their Word.
Most adults will keep your conversations confidential if you ask them to, unless they fear that your health or well-being may be in danger.
Other Adults
Other adults who may be able to help include teachers, your school counselor or other family members such as an aunt, uncle or older sibling. Parents of a close friend may also be able to help.
Spiritual Leaders
If you're involved in a church group or belong to a synagogue or mosque, your spiritual or youth group leader may also be a good source of advice.
Extracurricular Leaders
If you're involved in an extracurricular activity, such as sports or drama, you may feel close enough to your coach or advisor to ask him or her about more personal stuff.
