DEAR DEIDRE: I AM constantly getting emails from my son’s school about him being sent out of class for being disruptive and for not getting his homework done. I’m beside myself with worry, especially as his GCSEs are looming.
I’m his mum and 35. My son is 16. I feel I’ve failed him somewhere along the line. I thought by now he would be taking things more seriously, especially his education.
He won’t open up at home to me or to his dad.
He’s an only child and loves being around other kids. I think he plays up to get their attention.
I’m so down about it. I worry he will end up being permanently excluded.

DEIDRE SAYS: Young people will act up if that is the only way to get attention. A young man his age needs lots of positive attention from – and time with – his dad. Does he get that? Ask him how you can help him improve in school and set up a meeting with his Head of Year.

Weight: 8st
To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.
Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
