Are You a Victim of Verbal or Emotional Abuse?

It's time to stop putting up with abuse.

Questions for Kristen: Feeling Better When I Miss My Friends

My aunt and her 2 children who are 11 and 8 live in California and they always come to my house winter break and in the summer. Every time they leave I am really really upset. I try sending them letters but that doesn't make me feel any better. School is starting in a few days and I feel lonely because they aren't here anymore. I don't know how to get to feeling better.
