I'm too young to be in a situation like this my daughter has downsyndrome she's so ugly I can't even bare to look at her I'm so ashamed of her I don't want to take her out in public or show my friends because they will make fun I'm so disappointed that I have produced this creature what should I do I'm thinking of leaving her and my wife I'm too young for this Im only 22 I need some advice thank you

Living with my grandparents is a hard thing to do. They are extremely strict and I constantly get yelled at, for no reason at times. I also get put down by them a lot.

my dad and mom yelled at me because I text my brother over food because I text him that because i'm on medication it makes me super hungry and my brother is always getting... drunk and with his gf i'm fed up with it . so I text that him and he and my dad mom start yelling at me and I bust out crying I feel like i wanna die what should I do wanna overdose on my abilify what,should I do ? I need help

my sister has been acting strange lately and is not being herself. for example, she's starting to have bad nightmares where sometimes she even screams. she also doesn't want to be touched anymore like no human contact at all. she won't even talk to anyone about what is bothering her. she's 16 so is that just apart of teenage girls behavior or is it something more serious?

Im 13, i want to run away, i know the consequences, and im positive i want to do this. My life at home is a mess, I really don't want to go into details here. I'm thinking of getting in contact with a shelter but really I just want to get out and be free. Anyways, i just want to ask, what are the things that i should take, and how much money I should take. Please dont ask me to stay at home, where im on the verge of suicide my mind is already made up.

I stayed a week at a family members house and noticed that their 13 year old daughter would end up in her brothers rooms every night with the door closed during sleep hours. I asked my relative was this normal for them to do and they told me yes it's a nightly thing. I expressed my concerns of it being inappropriate because both are growing teenagers, the girl already started her menstrual and it's probably not the best idea for them to be doing that. My relative assured me that this was a normal thing in society and their kids are not into incest or anything sick..but we were both raised to know that girls stay with the girls and boys with the boys. I also notice the two are extremely close..too close I think. They have another brother who is two years older and he acts as if he is a normal brother. I dropped the issue because I didn't want to offend anyone in their home, but I just want to know if I was right to believe that this is inappropriate nightly.

To the single mothers it bugs me when I hear someone tell a single mother happy Father's Day. Not every day is a piece of S hit . We know you work extremely hard but do you need to be idolized on Father's Day to? I had a single father raise me growing up I did t tell him hapoy Mother's Day . It seems bitter and a bit egotistical to praise a women for stepping up as a parent should no matter which one is missing. Single mother or single father. It would be different if say the father past away anything the mother does would be no different weather he passed or just didn't take responsibility. So why is his exit such a big deal as well. Every parent try's there best (yes the ones that care) weather your a single mother or so gle father but to tell a mother happy Father's Day or a father happy mothers day is bull sh it to me

Well, so earlier today, my mom started banging on the computer room door. I got scared as she was shouting at me. Once I opened, her insufferability came out. She started yelling and screaming at me. Later, I threatened to call the police on her as I heard her start calling me a "a stupid ************," being told that she hates me, etc. She's done **** like this in the past. She was repeatedly yelling at me earlier. Should I? She told me that she wanted me in a prison or a mental home and she doesn't want to be around me. I am thinking about killing her stupid ***.

And if they're not teasing, they tell me that they fear if I don't do these things that I'll have a sad and boring and miserable life. My parents are married and one sibling is married and another sibling has dated before and is probably gonna date another dude soon. But for me, honestly I don't see what's so bad about it. You don't have to have a bad social life if you're single and petless. And I've been out of college and am desperately trying to get into a good grad school or get a full-time living wage job so I'm honestly relieved that I don't have to worry about relationships, or else I'd probably be borderline insane. Besides, self-respecting ladies aren't gonna date dudes with dead or unknown futures, which I totally understand. And it's not like I sleep around or sit and drink at bars or whatnot. Heck I'm a virgin. So I'm not butthurt over being single. And how do I refute their claims?

So my husband and I have been fighting all week. Our first fight was over a promise he broke, that I called him out on. This fight ended in him flipping the bed as I stood on it and calling me out my name. I was injured with backpains The second fight was yesterday. I caught him in the next room masterbating to porn while I was waiting to discuss our marriage. When I told him I was annoyed by this he blew up and called me a ***** an walked away. I followed him scream that I am tiered of being mistreated and I was crying. He yelled for me to go away, I continued and he picked me up and dropped me on the floor, I felt as though I had been hit by a truck. He cried called his mom and told her all that happened. Later on night she sat us down and asked me what am I doing to provoke her son to be physical? I was so hurt and mad at the same time at this question. So out of respect I tired to explain the situation. To my surprise, after him apologizing and begging me not to leave his story switched. He told her I threw punches at him which provoked the attack. I felt as though I was a sister who had just got in a fight with her brother and we were trying to explain our fight to our mother. After I explained she said well I don't know who to believe. She asked her son do you want to be with your wife? He said yes, then she asked me the same. I said no and packed my things and went to my sisters house. My husband and I are living with his mother and I returned after he begged. ML asked us to move in after our place become uninhabitable. However since I been here she has been babying him and treating him like he is a teen. We are 23 years old and I am tiered of seeing him get babied by her. She your going to get physical with your wife just walk away. My issue is any time I speak he walks away no matter what or how I am saying it. He even verbally abuses his mother and she told me when he does that she just walks away. Communication is important to me. Should I leave?

Okay so my mom and dad most likely get divorce and I don't want that! I know its impossible to stop it but I don't want to see my parents divorcing right after I graduated from middle school, same thing my little sister who just graduated from elementary. The cause of all of this is my aunt who I though was nice but boy was I wrong! She tried to seduce my dad a long time ago and she's like in her 20's while my dad is in his 40's. She knows his married but she still do it and people tell my mom that they saw them together. I assume that she seduced my dad to do stuff with her I think, and my dad just fell through with it! My mother is way prettiest then her but I need help, plz just help me! P.S my dad sister also knows what my dad is doing with my other aunt which make my hate sky rocketed. I swear my family is scum to this point!

I want to be an engineer. Everyone says it is hard. I do not care, I like it. I do not want to do medicine and my mom loves medicine she wishes she was a doctor. If she would have not met my dad she would have been a doctor not a nurse. I hate medicine I suck at memorizing like that, and every time I tell her I want to be an engineer she gets mad at me, and does not talk to me. She makes me feel really bad. I have tried science classes multiple of times, and have never done very well in them. It is depressing. In all my math class I have gotten good grades. What should i do....? Should I continue for engineering. My mom gets me scared about it. I admire my mother a lot so I like to listen to her, and I also want to make her proud, but I cannot with medicine. I do not like subject and that makes me not motivated to continue it. I am not an absolute genius in math, but I do do better in it, than science. I am sad she will not support me in what I want to do. She hates it. I already got a bachelors in something dumb that no one knows about (Ethnic Studies) because I was a student athlete and was more focus in that in the time being to avoid math and not get my parent mad. I am not a great reader and writer either.

Well, my parents are both white Europeans. My mother's family comes from Austria and my father's family comes from Ukraine and Armenia. They were both born and raised in Poland. Same in my case. I wonder if I can be an adoptee because I myself look Asian but not like Armenian Asians. More like southern Asians specifically I look like Koreans or north Chinese. I even have epicanthic fold which is one of characteristic Asian features. I also have dark hair and dark eyes. I'm pretty confused bc my parents have photos of me as a little baby or ones of me right after my birth but is it possible to differ so much?

Over the past couple of days I have been feeling sad/angry/depressed/aggravated over my Dad and Sister's relationship My dad has never ben a real touchy feely or too emotional of a person. He would never randomly give us hugs or compliments, but I know he cared about us. It wasnt like he just chose to ignore us or anything like that. The past couple of years (and as I grew up) I started seeing/realizing more things. they revolved around my dad and his relationship with my sister... My sister is 19 and hasn't decided wether or not to go to school, had more problems with school and stuff. She has been battling depression for a couple of years and at once point tried committing suicide. She has had a much rougher road that me and she is still trying to figure out her goals. What this is really all about is how my dad acts, or doesn't act towards her. Ive noticed he is much more distant with her that he is with me. He at times seems to be annoyed by her. He seems to not care. I am afraid he might not even love her at times... It seems that to him, he is doing his job if he just provided money and a roof over her head and thats all. He isn't on top of her to get to school and start studying, doesn't look into who she hangs out with. He never reprimands he. But it all just feels like he just really doesn't care about her or how she ends up. I don't know how to talk to him about it and I am afraid I will begin to resent him as i keep seeing this develop

My mom doesn't understand me. She can't accept that I'm growing up and want access to my own finances. She can't accept that I'm ambitious and always want to do something productive like volunteer , jog , read , and study ( yes its the summer but I don't care ) I set goals. I want at least 40+ volunteer hours with at least a 3.8 GPA. I also want to master the ti 83 and the ti 84 calculator so I can do good on the math part of the ACT ( I'm proficient in reading , science and social studies , Im just streaky in math ) She always asks me , " how can a kid want to do so many things ? " HOW CAN I NOT!!!??? On to the personal finances part. Let's say I know enough to sustain myself financially. It's such a drag to have to ask my parents for money when I gave it in my account just collecting dust and boring interest and compound interest. I think I should be entitled to manage my OWN money. She then tries to say, " well I gave you that money ." But instead of spending that money on useless things , I saved it and have about $3000 in my account. I'm so far from a spendthrift. Like , why can I not get a debit card when it's my own money I'm using not yours. Just for that , my dad agreed to get me a debit card and a prepaid card to any retail store that offers them. My mom loves to ridicule me for being my own person. Then tries to say I'm a repulsive being because I'm growing up. I'm becoming more and more independent everyday and she won't accept me now.what do you guys think

My bestfriend is 15 and he's a guy. I'm 13 girl. He lost his 11 year old brother to suicide about a week ago. I saw him today for the 1st time since his brother died. He looked like he hadn't ate and I knew he hadn't slept bc every night he's stay on the phone with me crying. When I saw him it was silent until he started to weep on my shoulder. I told him "His brother wouldn't want him crying and he was at peace. I told him it would be okay and we'd get through this". We walked to sonic and Starbucks and ate there. I was trying to get his mind off of it. Later on we're going to visit his brothers grave and honestly I don't know how to console him... Help!?

Tonight my uncle said in the morning we're going diving and we all have to go. My uncle is the one who owns the country house and I don't know how to say I cant dive because I'm on my period. The only other girl in my family is my twin sister Frankie and she hasn't gotten her period yet. I have 12 other cousins but they're all boys and my moms on a year trip to London so I'm with my dad. P.S. I'm writing this from my twins account

I think he's kinda mad because I didn't say Father's Day, but the thing is I forgot. I didn't really have a dad, he left us when I was young. So my mom and him aren't even married, and they have a baby boy together. So he's just my moms boyfriend not a dad. Isn't this weird?

Ok so my sister was taken Away from my mom (I don't live with her) and are now going for full custody of her. They want to move her down to red deer (as there is no place for her to stay in the town I'm in) but they are saying that no one is allowed to see her? Can they do that? I thought they could only do that if I was a risk? My sister is almost 2 and is unable to make decisions for herself. Can they make those calls? I just really want to be able to see and visit my sister. Especially since I'll be closer to her in the fall.

I've considered it for a long time and I think it's the right thing for me. I'm 16 now, and I know that seems pretty young, but I know what I want to do with my life and I consider myself a very focused person. However, I have one of those overprotective moms who would kill to keep her kids safe, and as soon as I mentioned the military she freaked out. Now she won't stop trying to convince me not to do it. I want to do something more with medicine anyway, so it shouldn't concern her AS much.. right? Anyway, how do I go about telling her this is what I want to do and she can't change it? I don't want to hurt my mom but I want to be happy with my life in the future. Advice?

I'm 16 and about 2 weeks ago I started work at Tim Horton's, for those of you in states who don't have one, it's a fast food place with coffee and donuts. I could go on and on but long story short it's just not the right job for me, plus it's incredibly difficult to get a ride and unless we go through w my dad's extremely elaborate plan, I'll have no way to get there. I have another job lined up, but I'm afraid he'll put his foot down and just not let me quit. Any advice on how to approach it?

Ok so yesterday I was talking with my brother and I found out he had some type of problem he had to resolve for both of us. He said he couldn't tell my which is the problem because it was very delicate. He said I should leave it all in his hands and trust him. I said I will tell my mom about this problem and he immediately said I shouldn't and that it will make things a lot worse. He said I will suffer. (Not in the way that he will make me suffer though). I am very curious about what is the problem and I am scared. What should I do? Whould I tell my mom or let things just flow?

My dad sometimes visits me (we live in different states), and lately he always asks me to bring him to night clubs and even strip clubs each time he stays at my place. Actually I'm uneasy with this arrangement as I already have a girlfriend. I wish my dad would rather go with his own friends back home, but he said he can't, b/c then his friends would tell his wife (my stepmother), and it would also reflect badly on his image, as he wants to "stay respectable in his neighborhood" (I'm quoting him). Idk why he's unwilling to go alone! Last time I accompanied him to a night club, he left with a girl and didn't come home until the next morning. It's obvious what he was doing. I feel sorry for his second wife, and I wonder whether I should tell her. She's a nice woman although we're not very close (she married my dad 3 years ago when I was 21 and already left home). Sometimes we speak over the phone and each time she asks I feel guilty telling her (falsely) that my dad was having a good time (well, he clearly did but not the way she'd like to!). I've tried to talk with my dad, whether he has an unhappy marriage, but he said at his age he needs some diversion, and that his 2nd wife is okay but a bit boring and plain. I'm quite angry with him, also b/c I feel used (he tells his wife he wants to spend quality time with his son whilst he's actually enjoying himself with other women). Should I just keep myself not involved, or should I tell her out of moral obligation?

He's 15 I'm 13 girl. He came home angry he was throwing stuff around and screaming. He hit the wall and threw more stuff around and then he just broke down sobbing. He was screaming at me and making me cry telling me to leave him alone and leave the house and I held on to him begging him to stop but he just kept screaming at me. I'm outside the door now and in his room I can hear him screaming and sobbing and idk what to do!? Help!

I just got home from work and got in the bath, as i was getting out my so called mother walked in from work herself and went mad at me just because i was in the bath and she wanted to bath my younger sibling then told me to go kill myself and that i'm a druggie when in actual fact i've never touched drugs in my life and it's her that used to, i'm 17 with a full time job and i don't even drink or smoke. She then called me a slag and told me to eff off. She's literally always been like this towards me ever since i was a little child. I have witnesses who used to see me wake up in the garden after she would kick me out at the age of 10/11. She's vile and will never think she's in the wrong because she thinks she's an amazing mum when in actual fact i blame her in every way for all the faults us kids do because it's all down to what weve seen in life and how she's brought us up. I must of had 20 of her boyfriends in and out of my life replacing each other as my step dad all the time. It messed with my life! She will cause an argument then tell me she's going to batter me! Would any of you ever dream of being like this to your children? Would you say that's a good mum?

I ve shared a room with my older sister for as long as I could remember. She s 18 now and I m 16, and I can t take it anymore. Ever since she started dating she s been looking for every reason to leave the house and not clean up, and even when she s home she ll find an excuse. I just don t understand how an 18 year old finds it so difficult to make her bed and pick up her clothes or even do something as simple as shower. At this point I have to shove her stuff out of the way to get to my bed, despite my own efforts to keep our room clean. Telling her to do it doesn t work and always ends in an argument, and when I ask my mom to do something she never goes through with a punishment. PLEASE HELP!

Hi guys, It's been about 10 years since I moved to the US alone. I stayed with an abusive aunt, then was put into foster care. I am now 24. I have a non existing relationship with my dad. He was abusive to my mom and did almost nothing for us growing up. I have been struggling with stability in my life, been through abusive relationships, lost evertything, and am constantly running into the wrong people. I have trouble wtrusting, and establising lasting friendships. Every time i could iu contacted my family. But everytime I cant (90% of the time) nobody comes towards me. They claim its my fault im always changing numbers. Ive gone through homelesness, and damn near starvation since, with no word from them. recently i got an app that allows me to contact them for free and im trying to talk to my sister there even if she will only ask me to send her things aend complain they cant get there fast enough ( mind you i sometimes spend days without eating) so i figured if my dad isnt going to reach out to me, since I have this free app ill try to do it. I asked my sister if my dad had the app she said no. I tld her if she could give him my number id love to hear from him. And her answer was you should contact him. I kinda reminded her that he is the dad, and not only do i not have the funds to contact him, he hasnt been worrying about me at all. I truly do not have the funds to and its only 5 $. Am I a bad guy? Please help me figure this out.

So.. lately I've been staying home because I don't feel like stepping out of my house. My mom went out to get some food such as tidbits, chips and stuff. Whenever I'm starving and I can't cook anything I have no choice but to eat that. She yelled at me telling me that I never make or buy any food. The thing is I've been trying to buy the recipe for pancakes and whenever I ask her she keeps quiet. Also it's currently 01:25 and I can't go and buy anything to eat as I feel weak at the moment. There's no food other than the food she bought in the fridge and the cupboards. I'm starving so badly which made my hands to tremble. Also, she tells me that I'm too skinny and needs to eat but she never lets me touch anything :-(

She is only 9 years old but she is a major *****. I havn't called her this but is it wrong to think she is when she clearly is because she is 9? The reason I think she is an asshole is because she acts like she is an adult when she is a kid. She gets sassy with my dad and tells me to shut up. She tries to start stuff with me and when I retaliate she tells me to stop messing with her resulting in me getting in trouble. When I try to ignore her she tells my mom and my mom tells me to stop ignoring her. She cries to get her way and to get me and my other siblings in trouble. She also calls us names even though she is the youngest.

Mums been involved with a man for 2 years.He moved in in april,and i never liked him.I made life incredibly difficult for this man.He never did anything wrong,he worships mum and he does so much for me.My dad left when I was 2 and Ive had issues with it for as long as I can remember.I was diagnosed with seperation anxiety disorder.I met my dad a few years ago and he called me a mistake, he said he'd never love me,and my opinion of men just turned into a big mess.I have no faith or trust in men.I have no brothers. No uncles or grandparents.Growing up it was just me and mum.Thats how I liked it.I made life difficult for step dad because I worried he'd break mums heart.He left last night after he asked me if he could marry mum and I lost it with him.He said he didnt want to upset me and he left.He has 2 children,twins,boy and girl.He adores these kids,and I guess a part of me was jealous that he loved his children.I never had that.They are 11 I am 15.I got on ok with the girl but I hated the boy aswell. However, mum told me today (She's furious with me, devastated my step dad left)she said that Im a spoilt brat,which I clearly am. My step dad is not the father of the twins. They are his sisters children.She never wanted them and left them at age 4.He adopted them both and raised them and loved them as his own.I never believed he could love me as I am not his real child.But I think he loved me.I messed up.What do I do?I want to find him and tell him how sorry I am.I had no idea.

My sister lives with my dad and I live with my mom. But my mom sometimes says hurtful things about my sister and I asked her to stop saying those things when I m around because I don t like to hear those things, because she is still my sister. But she replied with: Well I can say what I wanna say and I will say what I wanna say. And if I have to think about what you can handle or not I can t say anything so. So I tried to ask it polite but she doesn t understand.. What can I do?

okay so basically, its my dads birthday tomorrow and im not realy sure what to do for him. im 13 and my dad and i dont really have a strong relationship. were constantly arguing and hes just always mean to me, im not particularly nice to him either (not proud of it) so i need to do something nice but not too nice that he'll think i've changed my attitude or whatever. my mom wants me to like write him an email about why i love him or something. i did that about 2 years ago when he was nice but now idk what to write. so i need ideas of what to write in the email and some other ideas on what i should do. thanks x btw dont be a ***** and judge me cuz i dont respect him and ****. i have my reasons. idk why the cuss words are bleeped out but oh well...

my husband and i got married 3 years ago about 2 months before the wedding his ex wanted him a part of his daughters life so I didn t know i was going to become a step mother until 2 months before my wedding and im having a hard time in my marriage now our lifes a completely different and my husband doesn t support the fact that being a stepmother is very hard I don t know how to explain to him what I m going through he just Expects me to accept her as my own daughter but she is not and every time I try and discipline her he takes her side and they both get mad at me I can barely handle it anymore and I don t know what to do he won t go to counseling she is 9 years old and now her mom wants us to take her full time and I don t know what to do and I don t know if I just need to get out of the situation and leave my husband I would never make him choose so I think leaving is the only option. I don t have kids of my own but I d like to one day and I m afraid this is scaring me out of having kidsI love my husband very much I don t want to leave but everytime I try to talk to him about it he just gets mad and says so not this again

He's 15 and they dated since he was 13. I'm 13 girl and me and my brother are so close he's like my bestfriend that I argue with ALOT😂. Anyway he came home and I could just tell something was up. He kinda had an attitude but he looked upset. He went out in the trail behind our house and I found him enoing back there a few hours later. I sat there with him and I asked him what was up? I told him he couldn't lie to me bc I know him to well. He stayed silent for a while and tears started falling. I hugged him and stayed quiet. It scared me to see him crying because I'd never seen him cry before. He told me "Vegas (what he called his gf) broke up with him". I held him and he cried for a few minutes. I know he's hurting but he didn't want to cry infront of me. I told him I'd check on him later and pretended like I was going in the house. I stayed out there for a while and I guess when he thought I was gone he started sobbing. It broke my heart and I wanted to just hold him but I couldn't do that bc he doesn't show emotions in front of me. I just checked on him and he was asleep in the eno. Should I wake him up and tell him to come in or let him be? And how can I make him feel better?

So here's the story I haven't even been married for a year yet and my husband cheated on me with my cousin who was like a little sister to me. It happened a month after I had our son and they only cheated once. (So they say). It's been a couple of months since I found out and they're both still in my life and at this point I feel like somethings wrong with me because everyone tells me I need to choose one of them but I'm in a situation were even if I choose neither of them they will both always be in my life because he's the father of my child and she's my family. I'm still talk to her and hanging out with her and I'm still with my husband. I don't know if I'm just waiting for it to happen again so I can tell them to go kick to the curve next time or if I just really hope it never happens again because I do still love them both. I just have a lot of hate towards them. And I hate my self why do I feel so shitty about having both in my life?

I've been really good friends with this guy for almost 15 years. He knows me well. He knows I don't like crowds and I'm a pretty low key person. He offered to throw me a bday party at his house. I agreed to let him plan it trusting that he knew me well enough to know what I'd like. He then turned it into a joint bday party with someone else without asking me first. Then he invited 50 people that I don't even know. I was hoping it would only be my close friends there. He did this without asking if it was what I wanted. I was very uncomfortable and told him that I didn't like the party and that it wasn't what I had in mind for my bday but I hope he got out of it what he wanted because he's trying to become a party promoter and I feel like he used my bday as an excuse to promote his business. When I told him this he said f you, told me he didn't want to be my friend anymore, called me an ungrateful a=hole and that I should lose his number. Really, how can someone say they are throwing me a party and invite a bunch of people that I don't know, knowing that I would be uncomfortable with it. Then cursed me out and dumped me as a friend because I said something about it? Did I do something wrong here?

I broke up with my ex-boyfriend because he was a cheater (at least 3 times!) and verbal abuser. Anyway, I saw him recently at a party and he cornered me in a hallway. He started getting agitated and then said we "had to get back together." I said "no" and started to walk away when he grabbed my arm and twisted. I broke free and kicked him as hard as I could right in the balls with my pointed cowgirl boots! After I rocked his babymakers, he fell down and puked while I stood over him and asked him if he could taste his nuts. His face was priceless! I guess I nailed him so hard his nuts swelled up to the size of oranges and one ruptured and had to be removed (I play college soccer so I know how to blast a ballsack!). I feel a little bad about what happened but he is now saying he never mess with a girl again and he even wears an athletic cup all the time to protect his remaining family jewel. My girlfriends on the soccer team now call me the "nut remover" and say I should hang up a fake pair of nuts like a hunting trophy on a tombstone background with the words "RIP Brian's Nuts-Destroyed By Girl Power" since I sent his nuts to "nut heaven." Other people say I should hang up a guy's athletic cup as a symbol of female power over male weakness (guy's nuts are so vulnerable and they need the extra protection). Any other good nicknames? And what should I hang up? The nuts? The cup? Both? The more names and ideas the better! Be creative! Just wish more girls could experience blasting a jerk's balls! It is such a great feeling seeing a supposedly tough guy go down with one kick. Must suck to have nuts. They are just two targets dangling between a guy's legs! One shot and it is all over.

My situation is as follows: I am a 16 year old girl. I do fairly well in school and I have given my parents no reason to find me untrustworthy. My parents are so overprotective. They will not let me do anything. I always have to be with them when going out. I've been out with friends 3 times in my life, and that is a recent "development". The last time I went, my dad warned of "drifting too far from focusing on school". That makes absolutely no sense. I just want to enjoy myself for once. I'm not allowed to go out by myself period. Whether it's to the Safeway nearby or my friends house 1 block away. Now that school is out for summer break, I've wanted to takes morning runs to get/ stay fit. My dad said no and I began to insist upon this and he got a bit angry over it but now I can, BUT him and my 2 siblings have to come along to walk behind me. I have to stay in his sight. There are many twists and turns on the route so I have to stop and wait every 10 steps and it's not at all what I wanted. Another problem is that I am not allowed to have any type of electronic whatsoever inside my room. I have a phone and iPod but they must stay/be used in the living room. I don't understand this. My dad says it's because having screens in the same area where you sleep is bad for your brain? Also, while I am on a device I have to set a timer of 30 mins and stop when time's up. I have no bad intentions whatsoever, I just want to be a regular teenager. :( Do I do something about it?

My dad talked about it to my oldest brother but now i want to go but he doesn't and my other brother is homeschooled and now all i do is based on my brothers if they go i can go but i cant and my mom just said that because she knows that that will never happen. What do i do

He came home from college yesterday without warning. He got really hot since the last time I saw him. When he hugged me, I started tingling all over. I just realized how cute he was. I keep forgetting that he's my brother. It feels like I have a crush (nervous around him, butterflys, stuttering over words) He's really tall and handsome. I want to stop feeling this way.. Is it normal? I'm 16 and he's 22, not acceptable either way.

Okay so I have a 8 year old brother that is a hell demon ~(-_-~) he thinks he's the boss of everyone and is completely spoiled. When I'm minding my own business he always says something that starts a fight. Whenever I tell my family he'll get in trouble but he still continues. My mom understands and tells him to leave me alone and slaps some sense to him but my dad always lets things go the way he wants them to. Just on fathers day we were deciding where to eat and we decided to go to Red Robin. But my brother kept saying Carl's Jr and my dad said no and he was crying.... OVER A RESTAURANT. He always cries over food and basically cries over EVERYTHING. My grandpa tends to spoil him alot and so did my dad so thats how he ended up like this -_- Another time was on his birthday. I broke the stupid piñata because i was the last one and when i went in to get candy he grabbed me by the hair and started hitting me. He always hits me and He hits pretty hard and it sucks because if i hit back i get in trouble >:( I don't know if i can handle him anymore. He always gets away with everything and bugs me and my bigger sister. Please help!!! Thank you!!!!

So recently my mom and her boyfriend broke up and they were together for 10 years, we moved in to our new apartment last week. So on Saturday night my sister work at my moms work and my mom said she cant go because they got in an argument, mg mom brought her back home and me and my dad were on our way to a football game and my mom called my dad crying and saying i think im going to have a break down, she has 2 jobs and we just moved what should we do? And dont give me a stupid answer and.say oh go easy on your mom , cause we do a lot for her

When I was 17 years old I gave birth to my daughter. I will never regret having my daughter, but I wish so badly the man I ended up marrying had been the biological father. Her biological father left me when I told him I wouldn't get an abortion. She's 16 years old now. A few months ago her biological father asked her to meet him. She's been talking to him for the past several months. I know I should be OK with it, but it really upsets me. I don't want my daughter to have any contact with that man. He wanted me to get rid of her. He abandoned me after I said I would keep her. The most hurt I've ever been by anyone was when he left me. I have never fully forgiven him, but I know I should. Everything turned out all right for me in the end. I found an amazing man a year latter who latter became my husband. Even if I hadn't I could have made things work myself. I just am so angry at him for leaving me. I hate that my daughter is talking to him even though she knows he wanted me to get rid of her. My husband now is a great dad. He and my daughter have a close relationship. I feel like she should be happy with that and not talk to the jerk that abandoned both of us years ago. Part of me feels like she's betraying me even though I know she isn't. I know I need to forgive my ex now, but the feelings I have are still very angry against my ex even though that was 17 years ago. How can I forgive him? When I said 'I wish so badly the man I'd ended up marrying had been the biological father' I meant I wish my now husband had been the biological father of my first daughter. I do not regret marrying my husband, but I do regret having my daughter with a man who left me.

I tried to add my cousins on Facebook, but they said we don't add from people who are not close from us. Then they say we are busy and we can't answer your texts. I just texted another cousin saying why you always ignore my texts. She's like we have a time difference and I was busy so I didn't answer it. Then she said I'm the only who answers you texts. What is the problem with them? Are they just downright stupid???

My family has been asking to meet my boyfriend for months and now that its summer I told them I would consider it. I'll be the first to admit that my family is a little closed minded. They don't really attempt to understand certain conditions and disorders. That is where I begin to worry because my boyfriend has mild Aspergers and at times can come across as rude if you don't know him. I have only ever introduced him to my father. When they met I hadn't planned on telling him about it. But I had to explain since my boyfriend has a habit of putting his hand over my mouth and saying "I'd like you to stop talking now" when I get too loud (I have a very loud voice) My dad saw him do that and was kind of shocked but once I explained he said he understood. I'm not worried about how my siblings will react but definetly my mother and grandparents. I'm afraid they will think he's being mean to me or something because he is overly honest when it comes to things and will tell me my hair looks dry or I look like I've gained weight. I've learned not to be offended by it but I just know my family wil take it the wrong way. So should I tell them before they meet him or go along with the meeting and hope nothing goes wrong that makes me need to bring it up? I have even just thought of telling them they aren't allowed to meet him but would that hurt your feelings if your child didn't want you to meet their significant other?

So, currently i have a cousin that sleep over at my house because he want to search high school in my city....last year, his older brother slept over too with the same case ( no longer at my house ). He and his brother have same attitudes that make me pissed off...for example, currently i have to studying for last exam and he watching tv with loud volume in my room when he knows that i'm studying !! Enter my room without knocking, watching tv all day long, Many more !! (i'm one of guy that respect about "room is a privacy" ).but the worst is he seems like think i and my brother is not exist even i have tried to start a conversation with them and just doing what they want to do without asking permission or anything what it calls...i've told my dad about this because this cousin is from my dad's family ....he can't do anything and ask me to keep be kind when i'm around them when i already tried !! So i want to know your opinion's guyss !! What i must to do to pretend i'm kind with this cousin or directly ignore him or what ?? Thanks beforee !!

I've been in No Contact with my narcissistic father, so we've been estranged for about a year. Recently, though, he was sent my license renewal form and sent me a text "What do you want me to do with your license renewal?" What kind of father would do that? Isn't the answer obvious? Wouldn't a good father simply mail it to me instead of trying to pressure me to communicate with him?

so my 15 yo nephew has turned from being a sweet and kind boy, to this smart butt, he's being rude says hurtful things. it goes in spurts he will be happy and joking then just a split second later he will become the biggest rudest smartass a little history.. i have been around him since he was 10 he was very sweet kind person we grew really close bond to one another.we hung out, played games. watched movies, etc. he was like my mini me. he never left my side when they came over. everytime we did anything like go to the movies, beach, dinner, bowling he always made sure i was either right by him or on his team etc. His dad is Mormon and his mom lives 20 mins away from them. They have been divorced for about 8 years. So every 2 weeks they come and stay with their mom and us. Which basically all 3 of them hardly speak to their mom when they are here they mostly stay around me and we watch our shows, movies or play ps3. Its almost like they consider me to be more of a parent than their own mother. Don't get me wrong she loves them and wants to be around them but sometimes she "chooses" to do other stuff and not really be involved.Do you think he Hates me? Or is this just because I am the closest one to him that he know will allow him to lash out. and I will still love him? I have told him repeatedly that I will always love him no matter what. I have never raised kids or really been around any that was doing this so I am not sure if this is normal or not. . Or if i just lost that connection with him forever? I just dont know how much more i can take with the emotional rollercoster. I love them like their my own kids. I buy them food, school clothes, make sure they have school money and play money. its just sometimes i feel like I'm being used by him. I have a great relationship with his brother and sister as well. Last summer his dad made him go to the church boy scouts camp for a week. He was the same sweet kind boy when he left. BUT when he cam back a week later, he had grown a foot taller and he was a JERK. i know his dad is forcing mormons religion down his throat allways telling him no porn, no masturbation, no sex etc. or you cant get in to heaven.. even the church that he goes too preachs on that. the camp was over in sept. since he came back from then to now (june) he has gotten about 45% better with me. but thats along way from 100%

I'm 20 years old, and i'm a girl, i hate my father so much, i don't think if he dies someday i'll cry at all, sometimes when he's sick or have a headache, i don't care, i don't even ask him what's wrong with him cause i won't care if he dies too, Unlike with my mother, it's different, i love her and care about her, and cry all night if i see her suffering or when she's sick, I even have nightmares of losing her, and i cry so much about it, Well here's the difference, my mum is a loving, responsible caring person, my dad is a jerk, he keeps bullying me, he bullied me in my childhood and even now bullying me, he doesn't hit me, but he just bullies me with his words, he keeps screaming for no reason, and keeps calling me names and it really hurts me, and sometimes i cry in my room because of his words, i'm depressed all th Depressed all the time because of him, and i can't speak cz if i do he'll scream more, he yells at me and my mum and all my siblings too, he's selfish, irresponsible, an asshole, He's so arrogant and think he's the best person in the world, when he's outside with his friends, he keeps laughing and he's totally different, but when he's home he treats us like trash, Even his attitude sucks like him, I hate him and wish he dies, and if he does die i don't think i'll care, Am i a bad person ? Plz ?

While my parents are gone. I asked if it was his girlfriend and he said no they're just friends. Then they went out go some food and a movie. I had work in the morning so.I.had to.sleep. In the morning I found that there was a condom and also wrapper in garbage. So I'm.wondering is my brother hiding a girlfriend or is it a friend. My brother is quiet about girls and never had a girl over when my.parents are here. Now that they had left for vacation he decided to bring a "friend" over. He is 19 and she is 18. Just was surprise of it all...not something I want to know my.little brother does but I guess thats what he did yesterday.

My cousin sister is really hot and i love her not sexually though.She watches porn but she doesn't know that i know her secret After this im starting to feel sexual toeards her..

I am 22, unemployed and living at home with my parents. I'm looking for work, but every time I say I am going out (job hunting), My mother gives me a list of chores to do before I leave. I'm an adult trying to leave the nest and she keeps getting in the way of my success. How am I suppose to better my financial situation if she is preventing this? When I confront her about this she tells me I am ungrateful and that I hate her. Then she cries... What should I do??
