It can be hard to talk to teachers. You might be worried that they will:

• Interfere in your home life or talk about you to other people.
• Not listen to you or not help.
• Show you up in front of your friends.

But it is every teacher’s job to help you get the most out of school. You might get told off at school a lot at the moment because you get angry with people, hand work in late or miss lots of days off school when you are looking after someone. If the teachers know that you are looking after someone at home, they may be more understanding and try to help.
