You must be desperate to look for help ( such as this ) here.
Hopefully I am proven wrong.

Is it such a bad thing that she cares?

i know she cares but shes embarrassed me to much already. I love her but I don't want to end up being ridiculed for the next couple weeks.

yeah but you will get over it. Just stop caring what people think about you. I mean honestly i dont get why people get so worked up about how others feel about them. The only people you would care what they think of you are your family and the people you care about, not total strangers.

This man speaks the truth.
Honestly if your going to get ridiculed, your going to get ridiculed.
Your grandma's just a window for them to get at you from, if it's closed they'll just find another.
People won't make fun of you if they like you, so focus on the real problem, not the effects of it.

I don't think anyone in my school would really care if my grandparents walked me in. Most people would just think they are caring for me. I doubt you'd be ridiculed for having a grandparent. If people say anything just say "At least my family cares about me."

It's just a week. Life goes on. You're not going to change your grandma's mind, so make adjustments. Again, it's only a week.

Staff on HaloMods are wise. They are like a band of old wise Chinese men.

this is also along the lines of how to strength are trust she doesn't trust me to do anything like the following
stay home alone
ride down the street on my bike
go to friends house
make ramps for my bike
lower my basketball hoop and do dunks
go anywhere near the road
its just getting kinda horrible when im sleeping and she makes me get up and go 2 miles to the post office and back.
and you guys are right i shouldn't care and if anyone does say anything like that i should just say at least i have a family who cares or something along those lines because honestly not alot of parents care if there child died around are school.
