So I'm 22 female and he is 63. He tells me that we are gonna go on a bike ride together allot and now we are not. He also has told me for the 3 pas years that we would go fishing and now we are not gonna do that he says. He says he doesn't feel like driving anymore. I'm tired of him telling me all this stuff and not doing it. I don't drive and I cannot afford it cos I make under a thousand dollars a month. I have to pay bills cause I'm renting a place. So I'm not able to go camping or any of that. It seems like that he doesn't want to do anything with me anymore.

I am a 9 grader boy, I am the oldest kid in bus ... Now I finished school before other grades and now my 9 year old sister is going without me in the bus ... Today for the first time i was waiting for my sister and i saw her crying, she said that the oldest kids 6 7 and 8 grade are bothering her and smashing her stufs after i left school ... While i was going to school they never tried to touch one hair of my sister .... Please help me i can't stand seeing my little sister crying and i can't reach those bitches ... Help meee

My parents and I have tried talking to her, but it doesn't seem to help. She'll be nice to us for like a day, then she'll go back to being her cruel self towards us, my mom especially. My sister has no respect for our parents. I can tell she can't stand being around us or even talking to us. Most of the time she'll lock herself in her room rather than to interact with us. I know for a fact that my parents are good parents, but my sister is quick to deny this for some reason. My parents and I do our best to get along with her, but it's like walking on eggshells, everything we say or do is wrong in her eyes. I have no idea what's wrong with. She wasn't like this before. This hurts because I feel she'd rather spend time with her friends and their families instead of with us, her real family. I don't know if one of her friends is putting ideas against us in her head or if she has some type of mental problem.

Okay so I moveed in with my dad thinking it would be a better because me and my step mom where fighting a lot. Anyways I had a very abusive childhood harder than most people can come out of not crazy and I have PTSD as a results of what happend and some ****** up **** really did happen I mean **** that you would see on Dr. Phill. Anyways my dad wasn't in my life much for the first 7 years he traveld all the time because he was running away from my crazy *** mother but he left me my sister and special needs brother there and we where abused he never did anything about it. And I mean they were together for 7 years it's not like the **** went on while she was having me than he realized how crazy she is took me and left no. When they split she took me and I lived with a insane person for a hole year I mean literally she is a psychopath. But than not the fist summer I lived with her but the next I went to go live with my dad but my mom had, had another kid and that summer I found out she put my sister up for adoption my dad was just talking to me about it I was 7 years old at the time. He thought she told me but she lied and said she was at a babysitters. But my point is on my dads said I had two sisters one was the reasult of his last marriag before my mom and the other was a reasont of and infedelity with his lesbian sisters girlfriend from when he was in his 20s. Ive forgive for the years with my real mom but I can't with my sister she was just a little girl who was abandoned.

he been talking about me to my grandma. cuz I went to her house for dinner. And she was asking me how come I'm not talking to my dad, and what's wrong blah blah. Didn't even give me a chance to answer, before she start saying how my dad loves me and want the best for me. Lol what. were not talking cuz he never support me and never be on my side. always assume I'm the bad person who breaks windows for no reason. he ovizly toad her his version of events. And my grandma clearly believes his story. So I said I'm not even gonna make the effort to tell her my side since she believe him. she didn't even deny it!!! She said shes sure he's not lying, cuz what would be the porpoise. So she calling me a liar. So I left and went home. Then my dad was there, ready to call me names for leaving my grandmas on my own. So what??? I want him arrested for spreading lies about me.

I got engaged a few days ago and i couldn't be any happier but i just dont know how to break the news to my family yet. please help

I moved in with my boyfriend a month ago. I needed a cheaper rent in order to pay off some debt so I was looking for another place. He asked me to move in with him. I offered to pay a full months rent to help him get back on his feet. Since he was 3 months behind in his rent. However,as soon as I moved in he stopped acting like my boyfriend. No communication, no sex, he doesnt want to go anywhere, I can't ask him questions and he doesn't ask me any. I told him since he doesn't seem to appreciate my extra effort that I would only be paying my fair share of the bills from now on. I said that hoping that things would get better but he decided to end our relationship. Now he tells me that he made a mistake and doesn't want to be in a relationship with me. I told him that he's stuck with me for a while because I don't have money to move out. I paid movers to move my stuff in his place and I'm paying for half of my stuff in storage. I'm buying all the groceries. Why would he let me move in and now, a month later, he's saying he made a mistake. I can't afford to move right now. How do I live with a man who doesn't like me? He claims it's all my fault because I don't dress the way he wants me and I don't get on my knees to give him oral sex.

After the stoke, he's become delusional, incapable of taking care of himself, doesn't remember who anyone is, has no idea where he is. He drifts in and out of consciousness, and has lost strength in nearly all of his limbs. I can't afford a nursing home, and I promised him I wouldn't put him in one anyway. I have been laid off, so no money coming in. I can use my savings to help him stay at home. But he's so lost. He told me once, many years ago, that if he ever ended up like that, that he's want to die absolutely to save his family the pain. I'm the only family he has left, my Mother died a couple of years ago. I have no friends to help me. I can't kill my Father. I can't do that. Anywhere I can go for help? Why won't God just let him go? Please, no "God doesn't exist" rants. Don't need them right now.

My sister is verbally abusive to our mother and will not allow her to cook for example, because the fumes from food will stick to her clothes. She has a compulsion to wash herself and her clothes and takes two showers a day, and constantly has the washing machine on. She is obsessed with dieting and talks ad nauseum about how fat she is, (She looks underweight for her height and build) . She has never lived away from home despite having a job and earning money. She pays rent only infrequently and does not contribute to any household bills. She bullys mum if there is bread in the kitchen and tells her off if she hasn't bought fruits and salads at the supermarket. Yet she herself rarely buys any food, despite shopping in town several times a week, (she buys clothes and shoes weekly). She won't allow the tv to be at a normal volume, it must be turned down low, and she turns off lamps in the living room as soon as she comes in, even if mum is sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, because she says she cannot stand the brightness. When my other sisters and myself (we all moved out in our teens and early twenties) try to talk to her about getting her own place she says she does not earn enough to rent a flat. Our mum is very passive and stressed out by the entire thing and her health seems to be going downhill with it all. How can we make her move out or at least get her some help?

Ever since i was little he was verbally abusive to me and my mom. He has severe OCD and would get very aggressive if the tiniest thing around the house was out of order. My mom was very unhappy and divorced him when i was in the 5th grade. Im a freshman now and I really hate seeing him like every thurday and friday. I feel like I'm getting too old to go back and forth and i prefer my mom. My dad never does anything, mainly sits on his *** and eats everything. Spending time with him makes me feel down. Honestly its depressing over there. I shouldn't have to dread going and seeing him. The only thing is that he truly loves me and cares about me and i don't want to hurt him. He's hurt everyone else so he has no one but my older sister and she lives quite a bit away. I don't want to hurt him. I just can't stand it anymore? What should I do?

He always tells me to do stuff even if I am busy, we sometimes argue because he asks me to do housework and I'm doing other stuff (homework ect.)once he started really shouting saying 'what's the worst you could do, kill me?, and it really scared me as he got out a really sharp knife. He always smokes even in the car with my 4yr old brother inside. What should I do?

Help! If you've got time and advice, or just personal experience to share, it would be very appreciated. Thank you all so much in advance! So here it goes - at the end of the summer, I'm moving to New York City to start college (I'll be 19 and transferring). The original plans were that I wanted my dad and sister (we're very close) to take me up and get me settled. I had already discussed this with my dad, and had expressed that I wanted just the two of them to come (he was the one that asked what I wanted and who I wanted to go). However, the other day when we were all in the car together traveling to a family event, my stepmother said to me, "We've decided to take you up on the 18th and come back the 20th", or something along those lines. I don't know if my dad invited her to come, or she just assumed she was invited and invited herself - but to be honest, I really don't want her coming. This upsets me so much that either my dad invited her without asking me, or that he didn't tell her I only wanted him and my sister to come. I understand that it may have hurt her feelings, but I expected him to be thinking of me first this time. When I pictured getting dropped off at college, I pictured it as a family event... and the thought of her going makes me so uncomfortable. While she is not trying to take place of my mother, I feel like she is being (unknowingly) invasive of this special time I'm supposed to have with my family. Not to mention it would truly be unnecessary, because there is nothing for her to even help with. My stepmom and I have never really had a relationship. We are nothing like each other, and a lot of times I find her to be rude and catty. She often times talks badly about people, even the people I care about (my actual mom, my cousins, friends, etc.). I am a person who firmly believes in being kind to everyone, even those you don't like, so of course that makes me annoyed. She has, however, been extremely helpful in the college process – which I appreciate very much. She has figured out all the financial information, and has devised a plan for my dad to pay for a large part of my tuition. So, I do admit that she has been a huge help – but I don't think it should be her ticket to a free trip to New York City. I had been scared to bring this up with my dad for a few months. He always invites my stepmom to things that I have been uncomfortable with in the past. After talking with my therapist for a few months about it, she finally convinced me to confront my dad and talk to him about my feelings. I decided to bring it up last night, thinking I could handle my emotions. I did control my anger, and was able to express myself calmly and maturely. However, my dad became very defensive, as anticipated. He expressed that she was his wife, and it was important for her to be a part of anything he does. He also told me that she deserves to go because of how helpful she's been to me. I think that he is partially worried about being away without her – he's very dependant on her, and hates when they're apart for a day (they even work together now). My dad is usually very smart and logical in his thinking - but unfortunately, he thinks that his feelings are the only feelings, usually disregarding anyone else's. I just don't know what to do. I love my dad and want him to be happy, but I feel like this big trip should be about me. Am I being selfish? But even if I can't change his mind and have him tell her she can't come, what can I do to get him to at least listen to me and hear my side? It is very important to me that my dad understands my feelings. I just want him to see that although he doesn't see it as a problem, it really hurts and affects me.

I feel alone in my family and I need help. First let me tell you the problem. My whole family from my moms side ( as in aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents) are planning to go to a cottage for a week in July. The thing is I don t want to go, I love my family but I end up being alone and crying. Why, you may ask, because I m thirteen and I m the only one thats thirteen in my family. Everyone else is 3,5,6 and that s the younger cousins. My other cousins are 18,20,24,26. I m not going to lie they do talk to me and chill but only for about 2 minutes then they go out, and I don t want to play with my younger cousins, I mean come on, a 13 year old playing with a 3 year old because I don t have anything to do. Yes I have an ipad but I get bored of it. We did this about 3 year ago and I ended up sitting on a couch for a week doing nothing and being depressed. I don t want to go. I talked to my parents but they said I m being stupid. I just don t know what to do. Please help me to convince them this is a stupid idea.

I m in high, I am a girl and a freshman and my family had been going through tought times veer since we came to america. It S NOT EASY AND MY GRADES HAVE BEEN KIND OF OFF. i WENT FROM A 3.4 TO A 2.9 gap. I want to know how i can keep my head in the game because it is really hard for me to see my parents fight to get just litttle money to pay rent yet he still manages. And i try my best in school but i know i can do better than than. i just need motivation , i just son t what. I am stuck. please help me im sorry for the confusing but when i say my parent fight, you try their best and aslo my mother doesn't like me she said that she wish i was not born on time and that really stuck through me, she prefers my brother over me and i dk what to do about that either, everything changed in just a few years.

So my mom is always asking me AND ONLY ME to do random stuff with her then says its disrespectful id i dont. I wouldnt mind doing it sometimes but when its all the time it really pisses me off. And the fact that im always the one doing stuff if something is wrong im always to blame. Like just now she was on break from work and walked home. She asked me to walk back with her (her job is like 4-5 minutes away) and i was about to leave so i said i cant. Then she gets all mad and is like "thanks for nothing". I am honestly begining not to care anymore because its been like this forever. She is always telling me to come with her to the store or to the bank or just random places where i dont want to spend my time. She never asks my brother or sister to go. I cant sit down for 10 minutes without her asking me to go somewhere or telling me to do something or complaining about something thats not my fault.

I'm a 17 year old girl. I love, love, love my dad. He's my hero. He is not my biological dad. I've never met him. He left my mom when she found out she was pregnant. For as long as I can remember my real dad has always been around because he married my mom when I was four. Not being his biological child has never been a problem for me because I know he loves me as much as his biological kids and I love him like my dad. Recently my biological father made attempts to get in touch with me. He says he wants to meet me and get to know me. I'm in two minds about this. Part of me feels like I shouldn't feel this way because unlike a lot of girls who had teenage pregnant moms I got a dad who was able to give me a great life. I still feel some resentment towards my biological father for not wanting me and feeling like i was some big burden. I know I shouldn't feel that way, but I do. I also feel like I have a father so why do I need to get another one. He also just happens to be coming into my life right when i'm about to leave. Part of me does want to meet him, but part of me feels angry with him and doesn't ever want to talk to him. Should I meet him or not?

Seriously I don't understand how they managed.. I earn a few dollars than minimum wage.. and I'm having a hard time getting by. Family of 5.. grew up in Chicago. My parents married in 1990 had my sister and I a year later... had my younger sister 3 years later. My dad worked full time at a factory earning minimum wage... My mom worked part-time nights as a janitor. We never had health insurance... but had to go get physicals for school a few times and a few trips to the hospital.. when we got sick (maybe a total of 4 er stays). I never had new clothes (they were thrifted or hand me downs from cousins)... but I was clothed We lived on rice and beans...and this never felt boring. They managed to pay off a house in 7 years.. (although we had a few families that rented the 2nd floor of our house.. it was like $850 a month if I remember right). I checked a public record and it says they bought the house for $100,000 in 1995. wtf. My father still works (mom doesn't) and only makes $12/hr and he's satisfied.. I don't think that's enough. We were never on welfare. Actually I lied.. Well my little sister was on Medicaid (for 2 years)... but no food stamps or nothing before that. The weird thing out house is under my father's name and a man I've never met's name. I asked my dad about him.. he told me the man used to be a friend of his who's in prison. What type of friend... I have no idea

Hi, so the other day I went in to talk with my sister's adviser with my sister (I am a year older than my sister and live with her and my family). The reason was because I am usually the one that does all of the scheduling of classes for both of us and coordinates our schedules. I pretty much choose the schedule for both us, but will change them if she doesn't like it if I can.. Anyway, her adviser kind of caught me off guard because as I first went in to sit down at the appointment she acted like it might not be "legal" for me to listen in on all of her academic-related stuff.. It's my sister! How could that not be legal? I'm not sure I understand that.. What do you think?

NOBODY ever asks them or obliges them to do one single thing? They never allow anybody else to do some of the things they are doing because they always want others to do them THE WAY THEY DO IT and AT THE TIME THEY WANT THEM DONE, and never allow any space but then after they are done overloading themselves they start ATTACKING and judging others, complaining that they are the only ones doing things and that they are not responsible although the others repeatedly ask them to NOT do all those things.

OK so my baby cousin is 1 1/2 and he is pretty lively. I have another cousin who is a girl and by the time she was 1 1/2 ( she's 2 1/2 right now) she was already forming words and expressing emotions other than sad/happy/angry. Now I know that some boys develop more slowly than girls but something happened last night when I saw him again. So I saw my aunt (his mom) asking him if he was hungry out loud. He responded using sign language for yes and then when he got his food he said "thank you" in sign language. Now I didn't say anything, but I'm really confused. I've always felt that something was "up" with him but he can obviously hear, but he can't talk? He grunts and makes squealy noises a lot but I realized that he has never really said any clear words. At first I just figured it was because he was young, but on my female cousins 1st birthday she was walking and saying "please, no, yes, mama" etc. I don't want to be rude and just ask his mom if he has a disorder, but is this autisim? I'm only in high school so I'm not that smart when it comes to things like this. Can someone please help? Thank you

Can a parent get their children taken away if they smoke marijuana

The extortionist she was staying with threw her and her daughter and all their stuff out into the pouring rain yesterday 5/17. All because she refused to give him her food stamps. She has no place to go. No friends no family no job anymore because of him,and no roof over her head. She needs immediate help!!! She needs a safe place she and her daughter can stay at . Please can anyone help her right NOW?????

So my is off two days and today she went to the tanning bed with my sister well. She was supposed to come back because She's sick...Well now they're running through town hanging out with each other...so everytime moms off work they go out and I have to take care of my grandmother. I'm 15 and homeschooled, I barely see my boyfriend because they always leave me here... I have no friends nor nothing.. I would love to hang out with my mother believe it or not but she's always picking my sister over me...this has to mean my mother loves and cares more about her than me.

Im 19 and I have anger toward my parents for being poor. I hate my older brothers and sisters for never helping me in my whole life. I blame them for how I am. I tell my parents so many hateful things and it makes me so angry because they still love me and feel such petty for me. I dont want to hurt them. Im just going to move out. OPINIONS? WHAT WOULD YOU DO.

We aren't teenagers anymore and are still both single after all these years. When we hang out together, we have a great time. Thing is, a few years back, he started giving me more attention (compliments, physical touches, etc.) and I became attracted to him. We didn't grow up together, if that matters at all. Is that weird? Due to societal norms, I feel as though this wouldn't be well accepted. I'm an educated woman, classy, elegant, etc. and I found myself attracted to him! Never thought I'd be asking this question.

My daughter had graduated from college and was living at home with her stepdad and I. She was living at home on th agreement that she pay us rent. She had money saved up and was paying for rent and her own food for time being. She got a job after a few months of searching and no call backs.... She got a call back and took a drug test. They didn't schedule her for a very long time. A little over a month. My husband was angry that she was not working. My husband accused her of failing the drug test. To my understanding he yelled at her and called her some not so nice things/ a liar. She just packed her bags and left. My husband said she started crying and said she has never done drugs in her life and it's not her fault they didn't schedule her. I have no idea where she is. She blocked our phone number. I know through someone that she actually did not fail the drug test and is working at the pharmacy job. I don't even know if she has a place to live. Why won't she speak to me? Why did she just leave?

Okay, so she's 11 and I'm 12 and a half. I've been told that I have to go on vacation with my cousin because all of my actual friends are busy. The problem is that I can no longer bear my cousin. I can't talk about anything I like with her. Another problem is because I'm better at talking to people who are older than me for some reason, and talking to people a few years older than me helps because I'm into a lot of bands like MCR, FOB, P!ATD, Metallica, BVB, stuff like that, and I'm also into Divergent and I love the world of Divergent, how it's set up and everything, and when I'm with my friends, I can openly talk about it and they can understand. The problem is that with my cousin, I can't talk about that stuff because she's like obsessed with Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift, all of which I cannot STAND! She doesn't read books, like I do, so it's really hard for me to talk to her. And her singing is terrible. I cannot stand her singing Let it Go and Bang Bang, already two songs I deeply hate, at unbearable, high pitched, and downright just annoying tones. Another problem I have is that she always yells at me when I go to fast, so if we go to the amusement park, she'll be screaming and complaining at me to slow down. It's hard for me to slow down, and everyone in my family, except for her, seems to notice. It doesn't really help that she's overweight, and that she's very very hyper from all of the sugar she eats. Help?

I just bought my dad a super dad candle! I am really excited about it and think all dads should get one. The candle lets you pick out a piece of jewelry like ring, chain, biker jewelry, money clip, etc.. And it'll be hidden in the candle. That isn't even the best part! It comes with a second "surprise"gift.. Could be a $50-$250 gift card to Home Depot, lowes, sears, GameStop ... And other places, could be a tv, could be a game system, theater system.. Or the grand prize (what I'm hoping to win).. Is a Harley Davidson motorcycle!! So exciting! I went here for it. Jewelryincandles.com/store/Victorian

My mom is mean and she whips me and my little brother w a paddle but she has never whooped her real daughter or grounded her. The only times her daughter does get introuble she always apologizes and begs for her to forgive her but she never apologizes to us for beating us. She threatens to knock tf out of us and she slapped my little brother. And she punches us in the arm and throws us around and throws stuff at us. And she threatens to beat us black and blue. She favors her real daughter and gives her whatever she wants. She told my brother she regrets ever adopting us. She smokes weed and she doesn't show me and him any attention. She's mean and it doesn't feel good when Ur mom favors another child. I wanna live w my dad but I heard my mom yelling at my brother saying as long as she's alive that will never happen. I don't want her to get mad if I told her and make it where I can't see my dad anymore. What do I do?

I'm seventeen and it is the last week of junior year for me. For one reason or another, I can't urge myself to go enough and I end up faking sick, though sometimes I actually do make myself sick over it. I feel so trapped and going... I guess I could almost say that it scares me. I get so anxious about it and I feel I just can't. It's not "I don't want to go", it's "I wish I felt normal". My older sister had this same exact problem, and both of us have missed a lot over it. What makes it worse is that my mom is absolutely horrible about it. You'd think she would understand since she once had anxiety as well, but no. She tells me off and cusses me out for not going and feeling as bad as I do. I feel so guilty for not going in the first place and she makes it ten times amplified. She mumbles to herself, basically yelling at the walls though I can't distinctly understand what she's saying, and then she goes and gets on the phone and proceeds to tell all of my family about what I'm doing. She knows I hate it when she does that but she still does it. She's pretty much denied any claim I've made of me having anxiety. She's so hard about it that it makes me hate her a little and right now I feel like crying because she drives me to that point. I don't know what I can do.

I've been with my partner for three years now and he's always sort of been, well an asshole. I've been living with him and his parents for about a year and four months now and I am 16 weeks pregnant with his baby. Ever since I've become pregnant, he has become worse. He is obsessive, he is controlling, he is manipulative and abusive. I am so terrified of him recently that I had to sleep with his mom last night. I love him so deeply and want to have a family with him and spend my life with all three of us, but not like this. I'm so stressed out I am afraid I am going to have a miscarriage. Also, he smokes pot next to me all the time and gets pissed off when I leave and calls me a "drama queen", but I'm just trying to protect my baby. And the other day, he wanted me to sit outside with him when I got done work, but I was too tired and he called me a lazy *****. He doesn't understand. I don't know what to do here. I am so sad. So stressed. He doesn't have a job. He's immature, and not ready to grow up. He argues with me every day, all day. I do everything in my power to stay away from him. I'm even afraid to walk down the steps to get something to eat and drink. It is probably best for me to leave and take care of my baby on my own, huh?...

Hi all I'm 16 and I'm a boy I have a ******* father he is doesn't treat friendly with me and he always advises me and compares me with other people And he insults me too much I'm sick and tired of it Somebody help me!!!

My cousin who is graduating from Bloomfield High in New Mexico. Her graduation is saturday and her graduation dinner is the next day for the family. Her and I use to be close cousins almost like we were sisters, she was like a big sister to me, she made sure I ate my food and veggies, ect. But it has been 3 years since I have seen her. I don't know how she will be to see me again, all grown. She is 19 now and I just turned 17, last we seen each other was when she was 16 and I was 14. I had handmade her graduation card that has our photographs in it and put $150 on a gift card. I would like to put more into it. Any ideas? Also, should I give her gift the day of her graduation ceremony or at the dinner?

I posted a question about my sister a while ago but this one's a little bit different. So my sister asked why I don't sing in front of people. I used to get bullied a lot so I know about keeping to myself to avoid it. I told her this: "If I sing in front of people, whether I am good or bad, it'll just give them another thing to insult." People would insult me, believe me, they hated me. She was like "You're being greedy and selfish." I was like, "How?" and she said "You're taking your singing away from them." I thought that was stupid. But wait, it gets worse. I said "Well, they don't know what they're missing if they've never heard me." She was like "Well actually, you're being greedy and selfish because you're saying 'ME ME ME!' and you're being self-centered." I was in awe, I thought it was ridiculous. "How?" She told me this: "You think you're too good for them to hear you and judge you." I was like "Well, I don't think saying I'm a 'bad singer' will help. It's not judging, they hate me (this was when I was getting bullied) and it'll just give them more ammo." She disagreed. Who is right?

I wanna get this off my chest and see what other people think about it, so Im going to make a list of al the things that she has done to me. 1.) She doesn't buy me clothes because Im fat and she says that nothing looks good on me.... I have 2 tops and 1 pair of leggings. 2.) She doesn't let me go to bed before 1 AM everyday because if i go to bed before, that means that I haven't studied enough ( My mom is indian ). 3.) Im not allowed to sleep in my room by myself anymore because when i finally worked up the courage that i used to be suicidal, she thinks that I'm gonna kill myself in the middle of the night one day. 4.) I'm not allowed to go hang out with any of my friends because I'm fat and that I need to study. 5.) If I don't wake up immediately when my alarm goes off in the morning, she takes away my phone. 6.) I'm not allowed to practice my clarinet because she says I sound bad. 7.) She calls me derogatory names on a daily basis and it makes me really mad. 8.) Whenever I get bad grades on tests/quizzes she says that when i get older I'm gonna gave to become a prostitute. 9.) she once repeatedly hit me with a broom because I told her to shut up. 10.) One time I wrote an essay for school.... but she then changed the whole essay because she thought it was bad. She basically copy pasted a bunch of stuff she found on the internet, so when i turned it in, my teacher could tell it was unoriginal and i got in trouble. I had to force my mother to tell the truth to the teacher.

My son is 4 and I am against him playing video games/owning a video game system. My in laws know this but they gave him a Wii U for his birthday. They even went into my living room, during the party, and set it all up. This was all done without asking me. I have put the system up until he is much older, not sure if I will even allow it then. I just feel this is a huge slap in the face? I feel that every time something like this happens and I don't say anything, it just happens again but in a worse fashion. Is this overstepping of them?

I'm 14 and last night I heard my parents doing it. I'm not sure how to tell them. It kinda grossed me out. I appreciate that they're in love and all but it's still a bit unnerving to hear at night....

Ok so my elder bro who is 22 now has molested me since I was 9 till 16 when I finally told my parents he stopped. My parents actually didnt believe me but it was ok cuz he atleast knew that I am not gna be silent anymore. I havent spoken to him since then but due to my mom who cried n begged me to keep family intact n made me talk to him again. I confronted him n I told him that I forgave him. But I just did this for my mom. I hate him so much. I dont wanna see him . But we live in the same house. So I have to see him daily. He tries to talk to me n acts like nothing ever happened. How can I make him think that I hate him n dont wanna see him. Should I tell him straight forward not to talk to me or what. Pls help pls.

Hi, Im 23 years old and all my life I have felt rejected by people, I feel that nobady cares about me, everybody hates me, and nobady wants to be with me, is really difficuly bacause I feel lonely, and I really want to change, no want to be the same all my life.

Hi...My sister in law recently decided to have her dad (my Father in law) move in with her, instead of a nursing home...he is total care...While he was in the nursing home for 4 months, I visited every day at meal time, so I could be sure he was eating enough...here's the thing, I have my own daughter with a severe disability, and I have very little help with her...now my father in law is home, and I am expected to go every day after work, and look after him, so my sister in law can run errands, and do her things....I don't mind a few times a week, but frankly, I'm exhausted from my own situation...my sister in law never helped me with my daughter, and she knows how hard it is... I tried to get out of going over to her house today, but as soon as tried, she reeled me back in!! I have so much going on, and I don't think it's fair to expect this from me on a daily basis....but I know if I SAY something, I will be the bad guy...she will ignore me after that...and I do love helping my father in law, I just want to cut back a little, instead of 7 days a week, I want to go 3 days..I'm burning myself out

My sister ALWAYS thinks she's right... she thinks she knows what I'm thinking. It's like, I would be like "I like the taste of food" (random) and she'll be like "No you don't, I know because I'm always right." It's SO annoying. I'm going to give you an entry from my computer diary. WARNING: The following entry may have offensive and harsh language. Do not read if you are offended easily. Remember that I am not looking to be insulted for rude language. This entry was not to meant to be seen by anyone but me, but I don't want to change it because I want to show you how angry I felt. I tried copying-and Pasting but I will have to make an update. Dear Diary, So it's been months since I've written in here and I am so annoyed at my sister. I think she might actually have Narcissistic Personality Disorder. It's when you think you're so much better than everyone else and think you are always right. Yes, my sister thinks she is so much better than everybody else, but I think she has NPD mostly because the "Always right" thing. She doesn't believe in PROOF. This is her mind: "Well, I don't want it to work that way, so it doesn't." SHE HAS TO ACCEPT THAT NOT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO WORK HER WAY. Not everything will go the way SHE wants it to! She needs to WAKE UP! I barely ever get my way! Did I want to run away? No! Do I want Middle Child Syndrome? NO! But I ran away as a compromise because it was what I had to settle for. She HAS ALWAYS GOTTEN WHAT SHE WANTED. She has had everything work out for that b***h. She is almost old enough to drive a car and she's realizing that not everything will go her way. But she's still going to be a b***h about it. She's still going to be a brat about it. For example, a few days ago, she asked why I don't trust her. I said "You want me to honestly tell you? I am going to tell you the 100% truth." She was like "Well, I know whatever it is isn't true." Like, WTF? Why would she want to know if it's fake (which it is not)? SHE asked! So I started explaining to her. Whenever I bring up anything from the past when I was younger she says it's "outdated" (Well, she's not smart enough to use that word, but she says it "doesn't work" because it was a long time ago)! So I decided that I would give her the recent one. I knew she would object and be a b***h, but I didn't think that she would before I even started telling the story. I started telling (just when it happened, like, I told her it happened at the end of last year, so I hadn't told her the story yet) and she was like "Well, whatever it is, I know it's not true." W. T. F. So I was like, "That doesn't make any sense! You haven't even heard it yet!" And she was like, "I just know." So I was like, "Oh, um, OK. What if I told you... You had dark hair. It's proven, we all know it. What would you do?" And here is the most retardedexcuse I have ever heard: "Well, my hair might not actually be dark." So, what? She has a wig? THAT IS IRRELEVENT AND MAKES NO F*NG SENSE. So I finally got to tell her the f*ng story after replying to her ridiculous excuses: "That's not true." "I'm always right." (Not really excuses, just her being her typical brat self.) I got out the story and she started throwing her hissy fit and being retarded and immature when things don't go the way she wants them to go. She still kept saying she was always right, which is not true, and my mo was like, "Don't get mad, you asked," and I was like, "EXACTLY. I gave it to you."

I don't move out of her way and block her from the fridge and the bathroom. I want an itinerary of every where she is going and what she is doing even though she is a adult. She is currently helping me take care of her mother. So I own her.She is 5foot 10 and wears a 10/12 She is needs too lose four dress sizes. I think blocking the fridge will help weight loss.SHE must kowtow to my every whim. I also scream my head off at her until my wife gets woken up and break into room whenever I want to snoop around in their. She is complaining neck and shoulder pain and of tingling all over her body and her shaking in her insides . That can't possibly happen just from stress I think the body tingling is diabetes because she eats stupid ****.

Let me just start of by saying that even though I am a teenager, this is not just a phase, this has been going on for as long as I can remember (6-7 ish) This is what they do. - Father is an alcoholic, had a TERRIBLE year last year, screaming, fighting etc every night. - both parents are still "functioning alcoholics" - Never paid attention to me as a child - Blame me for their problems - Mother has gotten physical (pulled hair, slapped) - Called me horrible names - Lied to relatives about me to make themselves feel better - Denies any wrong doing And ALOT more along those lines, enough so that I suffer from reactive attachment, have unhealthy relationships with others, are unable to feel real connections. I literally dream of being hugged at night. Not by some boy, but by adults. I think I have Daddy AND mommy issues, whenever I talk to adults their age (29-39) (especially women, I am a straight (!!) girl) whenever I talk to them, I just want them to be my parents, and I want to cling onto them for dear life. I have let grown men take advantage of me because they felt like a father. Now, my parents laugh it away, say they`re perfect and that I`m just a dramatic teenager, which makes me frustrated, I am considered a genius (according to my IQ) (english is my 3d language, btw!) but anyways, I`m smart, and they tell me I`m dumb and emotional, they laugh in my face when I tell them to clean up their act. They do clean up from time to time, and SUDDENLY "become parents. And then use that against me at later times "Well don`t you remember last month when we did that and that" and they also ALWAYS fight eachother, however sometimes decides to team up on me and bust my balls because they can`t figure their pathetic marriage out. It`s very hard for some people to understand, I do realise that I sound like a whiny brat. I would like to see you live with them, cause you`d get sick after about 3 hours. So why should I have to live with them?? Right now my plan is to run away from home (get kicked out, just leave) and go to the big city and become a prostitute, I have no emotions and have experienced stuff like that before, so I know I can handle it. But even if I did I can GUARANTEE you that my parents wont own up. Also, my mother has abused my father infront of me, pushing him pulling his hair, kicking him, and even ripped out his earring so his ear split. AND THEN WHEN I BRING IT UP AND SAY IT WAS UNPLEASANT THEY SAY SOMETHING LIKE "IT`S NONE OF YOUR PROBLEMS" OR "I REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT THAT" and they refuse to discuss their bad behavior with me and say I should keep out of it, but obviously I can`t. don´t tell me to try to work it out. I have NO interest in even trying, I want them out of my life, I have no love or emotion towards them whatsoever.

I came into the living room this morning to see that my mom was watching Dr. Phil. They were talking about this kid and how he was spending too much time on the Internet and on his phone. All of a sudden my mom says, "Give me your phone." I asked why and she said "I just don't want you on it all day." I haven't had my phone in days and she's taking it away again. Then she makes up another excuse like "you haven't cleaned your room." My room is not really even dirty I just have a few things laying around and it's not a big deal. I'm tired of her taking my phone fire no reason and it's pissing me off.

I just turned 17 years old. There's nothing worser than you're parents telling you're a disappointment . There's no reason to live parents no more it's hell they get mad because I'm living my life not even doing bad things notbing compared to my brothers and sisters. I guess I'm getting kicked out And I don't know how I'm gonna make it.

my sister is 11 and keeps on taking my stuff and SELLING it how do I stop this before I run out of stuff

My mom just got married to this guy like a year ago, she didn't even date him that long before they got married. I hate him so much. My dad is gay, it's the reason my parents are divorced, and my stepdad always makes all of these rude comments about my dads. Like if I say it's my dad's weekend he says "eww." Seriously I didn't ask for your comment, my mom just laughs like she doesn't think it's messed up. Any chance he gets he makes inappropriate gay jokes. At one point I told him to stop because they are my dads and my other stepdad (I call him papa) has been around WAY before him since I was 2 and I love them and I don't appreciate his attitude towards them. He just laughing said "okay" in a childish voice, like he seriously brushed me off. How do I make him know that I am serious and he needs to stop? My mom isn't any help, she has completely changed since meeting him. I'm just glad I mostly live with my dads and only have to put up with the a** hole every other weekend.

I'm also a victim too. Of my own self, I'm lacking in the brain/intelligence department!!! Do you know that it's wrong to call a human being: piece of sh*t or c**kr***h!!!! They are like nazi's for gods sakes!!! I don't deserve to be put down, Only making it worse. Is what they are doing, not helping!! That's the punishment idea, punishment doesn't work. The idea is rehabilitation, not destruction. What do you say?

My sister has a problem with hitting people and kicking people. She is 12 years old about to go into Middle School. Last Friday my sister lied about hitting a kid on the bus. Her excuse was that he got under her skin. At 12 years old you should know not to be hitting people. All she got was her Kindle taken away. When my oldest sister and I talked to my dad about it he got wishy washy . I said dad if this was me my older sister or my other younger sister our butt would have been handed to us. Whenever she hits me and I tell mom about it it's almost like she is in denial about it. Usually I get in trouble even though my mom knows I ignore her. My parents are raising a spoiled entitled brat on their hands and they're going to have major issues when she is older. My dad even bragged about liking my youngest sister better last night. What the heck do we do?

Also if you could write your age, that'd be good I'm asking because I'm 16 and I feel like I shouldn't be sharing a room with my twin sister anymore. It sucks a lot. I need my own privacy already and some alone time and not have her ask me 'what's wrong' all the freaking time when im pissed off. i keep telling my parents but they're like we can't afford it. And I mean, I'm going o college in 2 years, I have to be able to have my own responsibilities and stuff. What you do you think?

Please take a moment and read my story please it will make my world I will be fifteen in one month, and I hate my life. I have probably three friends at school, and they really don't like me. All the rest of the people make fun of me all the time. I cry sometimes at school, but I try not to make it obvious. My parents are so mean to me as they always favor towards my younger brother. My dad always calls me fat, and whenever I am upset, my mom gets really mad at me. I am really dumb like I cannot do geometry at all. I did all this service to get a service award, and they did not even give me one. I am so shy like I cannot react in social situations at all

Please someone tell me is this a SIN because my grandma died 3 days ago may her soul be blessed. But i already had sex with my gf on her couch .. You probably would ask yourself how did we get in her house, but actually we lived in the same house above we live me mom dad my brother and sister, and down lived my grandma with her husband (my grandpa) so he died 6 years ago and my grandma died 3 days ago so because no one lives any more there we went downstairs on the first floor where she used to live before she died, and had sex on my grandma couch for good 35 minutes.. So how would i get back from this **** .. Now i feel bad because i had sex on my dead grandma i mean i had sex on my dead grandma couch* sorry for the last sentence i was trolling LOOOOOOOOL

ive pretty much been playing homeless shelter to a couple of people. I live in a 2 bedroom apt with my fiancé, his son and my daughter. his mother was living with us for well over a year. I had to get him to tell her she had to leave. I wasn't comfortable in my own home. she was so toxic to the whole environment. now its my mother who has no place to go who thinks that because my fiancés mother is gone that's her invitation to move in. I told her today is her last day. she wants me to feel bad because she has no where to go but how at 32 years old can I live my life if I have to take care of others? if my mother doesn't leave after I told her to whats my options? am I wrong for telling her to leave? im an only child and its hard for one child to try to carry the weight of everyone and everything. whats your opinion on this? ive told her that we could get in trouble for having other people in the apt that isn't on the lease but that kinda went over her head like she doesn't believe it until she sees papers or something. I just cant take care of a grown woman. I just want to live my life

My wife and her mother Jill and I were having a fun conversation at the kitchen table recently. Jill said she would like to start dating again and hopefully some day get married. Jill asked me if I thought men would want to date her. I told her that with her good looks and great figure, she would not have any trouble finding guys that would want to date her. My wife jokingly said how do you know mom has a good figure? I told her all I had to do was look to know she had a great figure unless there was something fake in there. Jill said "These boobs are real. Would you like to have a look and feel to see there are no implants in there? Before I could say anything my wife (jokingly I think) said to me "You would NOT want to look at and feel my moms boobs would you?" Every guy reading this knows the truthful answer but I can't say that. Gals (and guys also) what could I have said to not make my wife mad at me?

I was laid off and had a hard time finding another job. A friend recommend me to his friend who hired me. My new boss turned out to be a real nice guy but he warned me that I would be the only woman in the office and wanted to know if that would be a problem for me. I told him no but I was worried about being the only woman working there. As it turned out all the guys were very nice to me and trained me to do the job. I thought they were just being friendly. However one of the guys told me that the boss had told the guys that if any guy hit on me, the next day they would be working for me. I would be their boss. Do you think that is why they are being so nice?

I have just turned 17 yesterday, but my parents have never celebrated it nor give me a gift. Yesterday, I was playing soccer with my friends and my younger brother who is 12. Suddenly my brother came when i was resting in the corner shirtless because it was hot, he kissed my abs and said happy birthday bro. I was embarrassed because some of my friends saw it. What should I do and what do you think of it? Should i be embarrassed?
