I believe h_resource is Right !
School is not the Best Place for it and they might take it the wrong way!.
If you are Really Eager to Write one , Write it and Keep it till the School is Finished , U might even manage to Revise the Story as the time Passes !.
Unfortunately I don't know about Councilor thing cause we don't have it here !

btw , what title did u choose !? I wanna buy one when it's out ! :D

Even if you don't have those thoughts, teachers have been trained to keep an eye out for extremely graphic things because they are warning signs to abnormal psychology or bad home situations!.

In general, there is a time and place for everything, even when it comes to something as personal as your writing!. If a woman showed up in her swimsuit to the office, it would be considered indecent and extremely sexual, even if the same swimsuit is considered modest at the beach!. Just because the woman came from the pool and was going to change immediately and had no intent to show her body off, people will still think "why on earth would she wear a swimsuit!? she must be trying to get attention"

That's the kind of thing that people are concerned about, I think!. Even if your writing is good and even if you want to be the next Stephen King, there's a time and place for your gruesome stories, and school might not be one of them!. Even if you have no intent to be a show-off about this part of your imagination, people will assume that you're looking for attention or that there's something wrong with you!. It's just what they're trained to do!.

It's up to you whether you want to be the woman who shows up in a swimsuit and tries to explain why, or if you want to wear the normal stuff and keep the swimsuit for when it's more appropriate!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

OHHHH Sorry I read the question wrong

It means they seriously think you need mental help lol!. Which alternatly means you wrote one hell of a horror story!. The school councilor is there for you to talk about your feelings, basicly a therapist for the school!.

Got a copy of your story!? :PWww@QuestionHome@Com

Maybe you should talk to your teacher and make sure the subject matter is okay before you turn in the paper!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
