My mom is the same way & I have really long legs so it's hard not to find a pair they cover completely. If you're a teen tell her thats the style and you are old enough to decide what you wear.
My mom is like that too -- she wanted me to wear hand-me-down shorts that were knee-length! (I'm 16 if that matters.) Later on when I went shopping with her at Forever 21, I found shorts that go midway between my hipbone and knees. Surprisingly she was okay with it.
Maybe your mom will eventually ease up and change her mind. Try getting shorts that are a tad bit longer and a little looser so it will not be as "slutty." Negotiate with her and see what happens.
Good luck!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
