I'm 14 and I normally live with my dad and my older brother. My dad is lazy at home, he won't do anything. He tells us to make him dinner, find the remote, clean ect... And he doesn't even have a job to go to. He goes to his shop for like 4 hours a day tho. And he gets on me and my brother about our grades, and that stresses me out cuz he doesn't understand that school is hard for us, then he won't even help us. An she barley lets us stay at friends houses. We try spend a lot of time at our moms cuz he stresses us out so much. When I'm at his house literally all I do is sit in my room. He makes us go to stupid school stuff, like go to a pumpkin patch for 6 hours on a Saturday when it's 35' outside. He makes me cry when I'm alone and I get mad and upset and stuff. My mom and him like never talk so it's not like my mom tells him stuff. And my lives like 20 minutes away so it's not like we can move with her cuz our school is too far. But he stresses me out Sooo much and it's annoying

2008 she dropped me off Christmas eve because my sister and I were arguing in the back seat 2011 she rushed to drop me off at home so she could spend more time with my sister 2013 lost my job and asked if she could be my safety net for a month if I needed. She replied find a cooks job and derailed topic. 2013 I called her one Sunday morning and she was telling me about her analysis cleansing. I confronted her later that day and asked if she could not discuss that and she replied well don't call me then harshley. 2014 she sent me a nasty text explains how it was my duty to buy her boyfriend a gift because at birthday party that's what you do, note the day before I told her I was struggling financially. 2015 she told me not to come to her 50th birthday party as she didn't want to be around negative energy.

My 14 year old son & my 13 year old son started arguing with my boyfriend about a video game. I also have 2 twin daughters that I had in my previous, but they've been behaving very good. Anyways, my 2 sons were grand theft auto episodes of liberty city & their stepdad told them to help them with kitchen work & my sons refused & I told them if they didnt help I will take away their ps3 & they flipped saying "your doing this for that son of a *****" & so they got mad & broke a door by hitting it with their hands. They both have phones & im calling them, but they won't answer & im scared they are lost. I had a talk with my boyfriend & he said he never did anything wrong & all he said he told them to help with kitchen work. Idk what to do. I can't find my sons.

My cousin is having a little boy and me, my parents and my siblings have been invited to the baby shower, but I feel uneasy about going. I always heard this was a womens event and the men just kind of chat it up with the dad to be if they're present. Is this true? Because if so, I'm staying home. I don't know the father all that well to be chatting it up with him and I don't want to be in the midst of women talking about the aches & pains of having their first baby.

I work for a big supermarket company - I only work a 7 hour shift on a Sunday but I really want to quit. I would love to work elsewhere, for a smaller retailer or something. I have no friends at work, they make me go to a meeting for being off sick, the staff are annoying af, they get mad at me when I do something wrong (when they didn't even train me), I can't make conversation with the customers. The list would go on, but basically RETAIL. I'm 18, I get paid £10 an hour - I know it's good pay but it doesn't feel worth it - I'd much rather work somewhere I like for less given the opportunity. I also shouldn't really be working after Christmas due to college work. I would have quit by now if my parents didn't have to be so rude about it. I dread going to work the following week the second I get home from work, I tell them how much I hate it, I tell them it makes me want to die and they say they won't give me spends if I quit - so I'd have no money even though college have told me to quit my job. So now I'm stuck because I'd get no money by not working, before I worked I got £15 a week from my parents, then they stopped when I got a job. I don't know what to do because my education is much more important and all my mum does is threaten me. My dad isn't the problem, all my mum does is be a housewife, smoke, drink, favourite my big sister. My earns too much money, so money isn't an issue for him - my mum is just telling him to say no even though it isn't her money.

I can't just confront them because it's too awkward for me I seriously can't but like my walls are thin and it makes my stomache upset like I know I came from it but I don't want to hear anyone doing it let alone my parents... It's really disturbing I can hear the slapping and moans and all what do I do?!?!

I've been bullied my entire life and ignored. Ignored by family, my parents never spoke to me, they wouldn't even look at me, neither does my brother. I have been trying so hard to become independent, I just turned 20, I don't have a drivers license yet and I know it's my fault, but I work 2 jobs. I'm constantly bullied, harassed, mocked and laughed at at both. My coworkers will bring people to watch me work and they will all stare at me and laugh. My bosses are always laughing at me, every single day. Coworkers even throw stuff at me, I've been told I'm hated, it's a nightmare. But I'm still there. Sometimes my mom will refuse to pick me up, she'll say "I'm not coming for you". And I'll be stranded there, and end up walking the 4+ miles home. I can't help but think she doesn't want me here anymore, she never looks at me, or speaks to me. I have never wanted to die so bad.

Confusion? We have some sort of relationship, he's the one I text the most, we have pet names, but only see each other in the bedroom? We have our own lives, talk more past sex, he is somewhat possessive of me and has fatherly tendencies..idk it seems past friends with benefits? No dates. No f--k buddies because we talk and hang out with more than just sex.

i have to obey everything my parents say and do what they tell me to do simply because "YOU LIVWEUNDER MY ROOF MY RULES!!" i just wanna move out and live in my own place but no i have to wait until im 18 why why why "BEING AN ADULT ISNT THAT EASY YOU HAVE REPSONSIBLITYLUEIETIRES AND BILLZ AND $$$$$$$$!!!" at least i have freedom and rights "YOU WONT HAVE ANY TIME TO USE THAT FREEDOM WHEN UR AN ADULT U HAVE TO WORK!!!!!1111" im not working a minimum wage job so why do i have to wait???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I am a guy and the youngest and just to give you an idea about me I am not a troll and everything I say about my life is true and anyway I am in college and I am currently looking for a job so I am doing something responsible with my life and not sitting at home an being lazy. Well anyway I find that since I am the youngest I find that everyone is protective of me. Especially my mom's friend who her and her husband are like my aunt and uncle. She even considers me her adopted son and her oldest son acts like an older brother too me and we both go to the same college. He always makes sure I always do what my parents say and he always lectures me if I act irresponsible and if I don't study and I asked him if he would ever stop lecturing me and he told me never and I asked him to stop and he doesn't listen. Then when it comes to dating he is a player and at first he encouraged me to be a player but then he told me not too because he doesn't want me too lose my virginity but i will probably have sex anyway and I know he is not being mean or controlling because I resist him when he tries to be bossy with me. Not only him but my older brother always lectures me too because I don't have a job yet and so does my older sisters as well.

Hi. I'm currently 18. I grew up in an impoverished mexican household in Texas. My mom was a prostitute, and on drugs, but she was nice to us. She'd always take us to fun places on our birthday. Then she started getting delusions, and the teachers noticed that our (me and sis) had very tangled hair.! When I was 4 one of her clients started touching me. She was right there, injecting heroin, I dont think she was aware. When I was 7, we went to Walmart. She left, and didnt come back for us. She went to prison for 4 years for drugs. A nice lady found us, and we went to our dad's custody. Our mom didnt try to talk to us. Our father's house was a sexually abusive environment. When I was 10, he went to prison, and we lived with our aunt, who was a good, but anger filled woman. I was a huge delinquent for a long time. I oded on heroin, and had to amputate a finger. I prostituted myself as well, and got pregnant by my pimp at 14. Things got better. I am in college, one of the best in the country. My mom called me, and said she wanted to see us, and that she finally stopped drugs. I'm not sure I should see her, I'm scared. I dont know what she's going to do.

So I'm the middle daughter in my family, my older sister is 5 years older than me and my little sister is 5 years younger than me. My older sister and I get along very well almost all of the time. However, my younger sister for some reason loves to pick arguments with me. She has an attitude problem with ONLY me, no one else. She always has to mumble things, make comments and have the last word to EVERYTHING. It may sound like I'm exaggerating but she talks to me like I'm a piece of crap, to put it nicely. She use to do it only when we were alone but as of lately she's been doing it in front of my parents too. The problem is that my parents take her side every single time and yell at ME even when she's the one in the wrong. I'm tired of them babying her because at this point it just keeps getting worse. She's becoming more and more rude to me and automatically goes to my mom because she knows it'll result in me getting yelled at when I'm not even wrong, which most of the time its just her being rude or starting an argument with me on purpose. I try not to argue back but when it happens every single day sometimes I just can't hold it in any longer. But any time I confront my mom about how she handles the situation she gets all defensive and it ends with me going somewhere to seclude myself. My parents are catering to my little sister, they were never afraid to yell at me or my older sister. They refuse to admit it and I can't take it anymore. What else can I do?!

I feel like the ideal thing is for a kid to have a same sex sibling, but being an only child has its perks and it's definitely better than being the only girl. I have a stepbrother, not a biological brother, but it's a boy sibling for all practical purposes. I was lonelier than ever as a kid. If I was an only kid I would get a dog and I would be able to play a musical instrument. I wanted a dog and wanted to play music so badly. I missed out on that because of a sibling. I always came second and he came first. If I had had a sister, I would have another girl to bond with. I was always depressed as a kid because it upset me so much. I'm an adult and I still resent my mom for not trying for another daughter. I want a sister so much that it's breaking my heart. I remember the bond the two princesses had in Frozen and how Ana was willing to die to save Elsa and it was so sweet it made me cry. I long for someone who loves me enough to give their life for me. Every corner I see sisters bonding with each other. Whenever I see two little girls holding hands my heart hurts because it throws that void in my heart into relief. Being a woman is hard and I'm sure every woman hates it, but I seem to have born the brunt of those hardships. The sh*t we all go through that boys don't. Periods, bras, PMS, puberty, being in unrequited love, getting cheated on, and that four letter word that rhymes with grape, ALL girls deal with this sh*t and boys never have to have a clue. I don't see how I can ever be happy. I have no one to listen or understand or to talk to about this. I've been raped and abused, and cheated on and everything else, and I just can't take it anymore! A female friend won't help. I've tried befriending other girls but friends forget and backstab each other, and you can't be close to a non relative. Your flesh and blood will always be there for you. I clarify that I have no father in my life. My biological father left me when I was little. He's remarried and his "wife" demands that he have no contact with me. He hates me because I'm a girl and because I'm left handed and therefore flawed. I'm not the perfect boy he longed for. I don't see how I can ever be happy. I can never accept that I'm the only girl. I don't want to live if I have to be alone in the world. I love my mom, but she doesn't understand and I've never forgiven her 100% for not having another baby (which would probably have been a daughter). I want someone to be there for me. I want someone to give a kiss to me, and to love me even with my tears and mood swings. I want someone to be a role model to and protect and love.

Both are being a pain about it and making jabs at the other to us about how the other is too controlling. Both should be best friends they are so similar but instead they hate each other. Any ideas? We can't do both as they live 2 hours apart and we don't host

The other day I went with my family to a house showing. We took off our shores when we got there (not uncommon). Everyone else wore socks, but I had bare feet as I had worn sandals. When asking us questions in different rooms, the realtor kept addressing me and asking how the floor/carpet feels. I later asked her why she kept asking me, and had said that it was because I was the only one who was barefoot instead of wearing socks, so I could feel the floors/carpets easier on bare feet, so my opinion was especially important to her. Does anyone else find this odd?

I was so upset about it as a child that I became depressed, and as an adult I still feel angry and resentful about this. I don't belong in my family, and never did, and I felt unloved as a child. Being the only girl with only brothers is the loneliest family configuration. Technically, he's my stepbrother, but it's a boy sibling, so for all practical purposes. If I was an only child then I would have turned out to be more talented and confident, if I had been an only child I would have gotten a pet, and I would get a musical instrument to play. I longed for a pet and I longed to play music but it's difficult to have that stuff when there are siblings. I was often lonely and unloved because my parents gave attention to him and I had to fight for their attention, if I was an only kid at least I would be their number one. I got so sick of being second. In spite of all that, I longed for a little sister (or an older one). It would mean missing out on being an only child, but I would have a girl to bond with. Being a girl is so hard, and I would have someone who understood me. The hardships of being a girl, like periods, bras, getting your heart broken by boys, would have been so much less frightening and confusing if I had a girl to bond with who understood. I had to go through all that alone, and I got judged and shamed for my tears, my moodiness, and my anger, because no one understands that being a girl is hard! I'm an adult and part of me still hates my mother for not having another baby. I know that parents can't control the baby's gender, but it would probably have been a girl, right? Aren't most babies girls? I probably missed my chance to have children, but I want so badly to have twin daughters! I'm left handed (ugghh. I do NOT wish that on my children!) and understand that raises your risk of having twins. If I ever have a little girl I want her to have the joy of a sister. And a dog or cat. I know I'll get judged, but I hope someone will understand my feelings. Part of me misses being an only child. Please don't say, "At least you had a sibling." There are NO benefits to having my stepbrother and if you had to live with him you would go bananas. If I had a sister then I would have a girl to bond with, over the hardships of being a woman, and I wouldn't have to go through them alone. Furthermore, my parents wouldn't overprotect me. My parents believed in old fashioned gender roles, that women are supposed to be a kind of waitress and that our role in life is a. to wait on men with a smile and b. to be baby factories. I feel like I was held to a higher level of scrutiny because I was the only girl. We deal with periods, PMS, puberty, get cheated on and get heartbroken, and we're supposed to smile and be subservient 24-7 and if I show any signs of moodiness, I'm called a huge *****. @Linda: And you sound mentally retarded. I didn't ask for you to judge me, so please **** off. In the hopes that someone who is NOT a retard will answer my question. Being the only daughter really sucks! I missed out on stuff as a kid that I'm too old to have. For example, my parents overprotected me, and wouldn't let me have a bike or a skateboard as a kid. I wanted to surf, they wouldn't let me learn. I'm too old to do all that stuff now. I've moved on but I wanted very badly to do that stuff and something will always be missing.

This is pretty stupid, but so recently my girlfriend was at her dads house (the parents are not together) and she recently got her report card and had a D in math. So her dad called her and asked her about the report card and she told her father she had a D in math. (Sorry if I m not making sense) Her dad said she s been telling if she gets a F in any class she would get punished....but she didn t. She has A s and B s in every other class but her dad still punished her. Her dad took away her computer and her guitar (she doesn t have a phone at her dads house). Now I can understand taking away the computer and guitar and stuff be she also has to go in her back yard and do manual labor for 2 months until 9 pm. I do not think that s fair whatsoever. What should I tell her?

So when my sister was born I was 12 years old. I was only child of my parents and they treated me so much. But, when my sister was born and they treated her more but I think it was fair because she was a newborn baby and she needed mothers attention but now she is 14 and I am 26. But they still love her more than me. They never notice my success but when my sister does something good they hug her and they say that they are lucky to have a daughter like this. Also if she asks for good smartphones or something she has it in 1 hour but when I want something they start getting angry and complain that they dont have money. So dont tell me talk to your parents or something because my sister will hear and will make bad things happen to me. Can you give me Some advice on how can i deal with it?

is it ok for a caregiver to yell at a person for spending too much money and snoop through their house and then call their parents about EVERYTHING that they are doing??? i have a friend who has a caregiver who constantly makes fun of how his house looks and they throw away food hes eating just because it was in the fridge for a few days when he was STILL EATING IT. They insist that having too many plants in a house looks like a jungle and wer not going to have our house look like that now.

I am 16 I ve been waiting for my permit since my birthday I do everything I m in school I get really good grades I have an 88 gpa but my brother who is 18 dropped out of school is not doing anything with his life & still gets to get his permit next week .. is this fair at all ?

Yesterday, my brother wanted "Alone time" so my mom told me I had to stay in my room all day, and I would get something. So, I agreed. Later, she asked me what I wanted, and I wanted my cousin to spend the night. She says no because she is a girl, and she doesn't always hang out with my brother. I said fine and went on with it. But, my brother asked if his friend Connor could come over, and she said yes. So today, I am trapped in my room again so they can hang out. Somebody please explain...

I honestly don't know if he's right or not. Ever since I was little, he holds me up to the same standards he received in china as a child. This means high nineties academically. It got worse since I entered GR 9 last year. I'll admit I was pretty lazy and didn't try as hard as I could have, but I still got a 90 average and honor roll. He freaked out because I didn't get any specific subject rewards or principals list. After the award's night, he told me in the car "I'm obligated to tell you congratulations, but honor roll is not impressive at all". Today, I was going to go to a movie with a friend, and he said I'm a failure for wasting my time on useless social stuff. I DO NOT go out often for fun. Maybe once every 2 weeks? The thing that annoys me the most is that by most people's parent's ideas, my grades are more than fine. I see people who are literally getting 30s in their classes, yet they have no problem going to a party WITH alcobhol, drugs, sex, etc. (I've never had a drink, never smoked, none of that stuff. Literally never had a boyfriend or even been to a crazy party). I don't know what to do. Is this kind of treatment normal? Are they just pushing me? I don't like constantly being afraid of screaming if I do bad in school!

Her mother (my sister) is a very unfit mother . She doesn't listen to her, respect her and she neglets her emotionally . I feel that i can give her the love and affection that she deserves . I just don't know how to do it . She lives with just her mother at the moment and with her two younger sisters , both babies by another man(other than her father) . Her father is married to another woman and has three kids with her . And my neice has already said that she doesn't want to live with either one because of the way they act and I'm willing to adopt her.

I haven't asked yet but I have a feeling that it is going to be a no. You see, I want to go to Busch gardens with my friend tomorrow to go to hallow screams and everything. I have gotten in trouble recently over minor things like the dog having an accident on the carpet, and my step father takes these things to the extremes as if I did something seriously wrong. And well, they allowed me to go to my friends house last night and now they are saying I'm going to have to work that off. And now I'm worried that they won't let me go to hallow screams. If they don't say yes, what do I do?

My brother won't stop annoying me. He keeps coming in my room, waking up at like 7 in the morning and he would be screaming and making random noises, etc. I would be like "please leave me alone" then go into another room and he follows me! My parents are yelling at him literally 24/7 but it just gets worse and worse! Sometimes I would threaten to tell my parents what he said or did that would shut him up for about 10 minutes. I try so hard to ignore him but I just can't!!! He's in my face all the time and I get introuble for things I didn't even do! He also NEVER minds his own business. He's like "she didn't do this or she did this" please help!!! He's like a living h*** (I don't like to swear). No rude answers!!! Thank you!

I m about to turn 13 in the spring and over the summer I would like to where crop tops. I don t want to do it because everyone else is doing that, I like the style and my parents know I m more of a conservative skater girl. I think approaching my mom will be hard because she s used to me being so anti-skin. I know for a fact that she showed a lot more skin when she was around my age then I want. For example she told me when she went to highschool she dressed inappropriately. I m not wanting to look trashy or anything. Please help thanks:) p.s please don t say 13 is to young, because I know for some family s it is considered young and all but I want helpful feedback. :)

I feel rejected by extended family that often doesn't want to see me because of my parents divorce. I live with my father so my mother's family views me as a traitor. Yesterday I was at a funeral for a great-uncle and my uncle wouldn't even say hi. I feel hurt but want to stay with my Dad. How can I get over this hurt? Most of them are polite to me but I know talk about me behind my back and this will be the first year I don't see my mother's family at the holidays. Update: I chose to live with my Dad but I love my mother and visit her so it is not a case of me deliberately hurting my mother.

But the problem is parents blame on me for everything of my fault. Yesterday there were ants crawling in the kitchen dad clams that the ants were coming in my room. Everything i do they are never satisfied... They buy me anything i want but they never talk to me ....... or even cared to check my homework. They even said it themselves i have no friends and ask me for facebook help why am i suppose to know what facebook is when i have no friends.

My home situation with my father isn t great to say the least. He has never told my mom, brother, or I much about him, his childhood, his family, etc. I need to find out more.

My dad gets on me about my grades. And school is hard for me. My older brother has all good grade, he's smart, and school is easy for him. So I think my dad thinks like if he can then so can I. But like rn I have 2A's, 1B, 3C's 1D, and 1F. He says that if I have 2 bad grades(D's & F's) that I can't do anything over the weekend. I think it's kinda mean. Like I know it's supposed to make me want to do better, but I dooo try to do better, it's just really hard for me. And my mom she just says I need to try a little harder, that's all. And my parents are divorced so it's not like my dad tells her everything. And my dads been stressed lately and I honestly try to not stay at his house when he's stress cuz it just makes me upset and stressed.

I am 16 years old and live with my mother,stepfather.She loves him more than me.I just know it.She never shows any affection to me and she has never kissed or hugged me.If we have some drama at house i am always ending up with being called worst daughter ever,b*tch and etc.She even hits me.I am crying every night because I really want to be loved by her and not neglected((For example,my mom and me wake up at 6am and it was the only time when we managed to have at least 10 mins talk.Now my stepfather wakes up at the same time and I am being ignored.I became really aggressive and annoying just to get my mom's attention.Now i am only being yelled at.She always says that I am lazy brat without future,that i am ugly and no one is going to love me and etc.I try to help her around the house,I am straight A student.And now iIdon't have self-esteem at all.And now she saying that she regrets having me and I am the copy of my b*tchy father..I am super skinny and tall,have a little of acne and she says that her friends' daughters are beautiful and God has punished her with having me...I am really thinking about killing myself just to get out of this house.I love her so much but i can't deal with all of this.My real dad has a new family and he hash't called me in a 10 years.Other family members call me rubbish too.how can i deal with all this ?

About to really just explode

The thing our parents wanna take me and my brother to a friends thing tomorrow early in the morning but we wanna stay up late and we don't want to go. So my brother had plenty of 'bright ideas' on what to do to skip it. The best ideas so far were for one of us to have a stomach ache but this won't help because only one of us won't get to go and we both have to wake up early anyway. We thought that the time change tomorrow will work to our help ( we thought of removing the automatic time change on their phone and blame it on a glitch but that would require them to oversleep to work ) so ... Any ideas on how they will sleep a little bit more - removing the morning alarm won't work because my mom will wake up early anyway... So here's is the problem is there a way for them to oversleep for an hour or more ?? Kinda urgent !! Pls respond ASAP if you have any ideas !

My mother and her sister have not spoken to each other accept very coldly and briefly for two years now. It is a long story of what the two issues are. So to get them to talk again Dad and I decided to get my uncle (my aunt's husband) to call his wife and tell them my mother was in a very bad car crash and the family is being called to the hospital as it doesn't look good. Then my Dad or I will call my mother and tell her my aunt was in a very bad car accident and to get to the hospital as it doesn't look good. The thought is once they both get to the hospital and see each other alive and okay they will be so grateful they will forget about the differences. Also, my Dad and I and my brother can start hanging out with my uncle and cousins again (we haven't been able to). So should we do this or should we be concerned about something in trying it? We plan to do it this week.

Do you sometimes think the same way ? looking at people as they're a nice meat ?? Don't you even try to think about non sexual things ? Why do you think this way BTW ? Is that everything to you ?

So im 16 year old boy im my parents only child. First of all there is no problems between my parents or between me and my parents at all... But firstly i feel that my parents dont give affection alot like they dont cuddle or somethig like that but they always kiss each others cheek when someone comes back home. Secondly my dad is the boss in his work so he had a secertary she is a female.. Now she isnt a Secertary she is something else but still works there and i have noticed her calling my dad on the phone more than once when im with him and he never answered when im with him. More over, lately my dad had been acting strangely on his phone i always notice him on "viber" and if im there he always holds his phone in an angle so i cannot see like its obvious.. Also, someone put a picture on viber i dont know maybe it was a funny pic or something so he wanted me to see it so when he asked me to look he pressed on the name by mistake and he was so nervous and tilted the phone away and told me to wait. In addition to that, today we were going to the club me and my mom so we were looking for our membership card and she told me to look in my dads drawer i looked there and i found mine then i wanted to make sure that my moms card isnt there so i looked and ive found a pack of condoms "durex" so i dont know like he treats us well but i dont know:/ i havent told my mom or anybody So what do you guys think??

If a father and son reconnected after like 13 years Here the thing though the father thought his child was killed when he was 2 years old and the son grew up with no parents and wish he had some, then meets a man (his father) and he felt like a father figure to him what would be the reaction Btw the mother died

I never thought i would be typing this out but i am only thirteen and last night my mom told me to go to bed early and it was ony 8:30 and i said "No. Its too early" and i continued to argue with her because she said before i was allowed to stay up as long as i wanted on weekends but she said "yea maybe for that weekend" even though she clearly said "you can stay up on the weekends as long as you want, just as long as i dont have to stay up." So i just decided that i wasnt going to win and brought my ipad to bed. She didnt realise that i had my ipad and its charger but i was watching youtube and all of a sudden i heard out door start beeping because we have one of those eletrich locks where you need to pit a passcode in to unlock it and i thought it was my dad because he took a "suprise trip to vancouver" so i quickly hid my ipad under the sheets and pretended to be asleep because i didnt want to get caught. Then someone looked in to see if i was asleep. They must have thought i was asleep because he just went into my moms room and closed the door behind him. I could hear them talking, i wants sure if it was my dad or not because i couldnt hear them talking that clearly it was just muffled. Then about 10 minutes later my mom,s bed started squeaking. I thought it was just my dad moving around because their bed squeaks really easily. Then the squeaking kept going on for like 30 seconds and i knew something was up. All of a sudden i heard my mom quietly moaning.

It was perfectly working, until I lost connection and they said that they needed new router to watch Netflix. AND THEY HAD IT BEFORE.

My boyfriend and his mother are very judgemental people. This is why I don't invite him home and stay over at his. When I did invite him here, he complained about how messy it was and how be doesn't understand how people can live like this, felt undermined and put down. It was his moms bday a few days before mine. I got her a box of chocolates candles and a card. She didn't even bother to get me a card. In fact she didn't even get out of her bed to say happy bday. My.boyfriend got me a plastic guitar that cost very little, said he always wanted to have sex with a female guitarist? On my bday he was laughing at the way I used to dress, wearing fake tan, and not being able to walk in "tacky" heels properly. Then he said he saw my little sister at the bus stop. She is taller than me, bigger boned and has a completely different shape. He said he was shocked at how huge she was and kept saying is she okay? Why don't you force her to go to the doctor? Making me feel terrible. It is something she is very self conscious about so we don't talk about it. I ended up crying, and he just ignored me, and left me cry in my own, and go to sleep very upset. I woke up and made a coffee and then left. He called me saying I was a horrible person etc.. He's acting like he was entitled to say anything nasty to me, and I'm over sensitive, serious and sad if I don't like it. I feel my confidence is down the tubes. What would you do?I feel numb. Thank you.

I felt I was being stalked and the driver in the car that drove by did not lived in the neighborhood. What should I do in this situation? I do not trust people or go outside too often because of suspicious activity at night but two drivers were purposefully stalking me and drove away from the neighborhood. I could not write down their license plate in time. Even though they were driving under the speed limit, it was hard to see their license plate. I will try next time to write it down before they drive away. It would be a bit hard because of the distance between the car and I. I would only get a split second to write it down or miss my chance. A glance is not enough to write the whole license plate number down.

I am a guy, and I have seen so many other guys who tower over their mothers, especially my cousins. I am probably as tall as or shorter than my mother. Is it really normal for an adult male to be shorter than his own mother? I am very desperate for answers, and I need to know. I am in my early to mid 20s. What I've meant to put on here is that when I was 12, the doctor measures me at 4'11, recently, I am either as tall as or shorter than my mother. Why did God cursed me into being shorter than my own mother. All guy are not supposed to be shorter than their own mothers. This is so not normal. Could it be that I'm having a very late growth spurt? Who knows.

My uncle is not happy with his life. He married a woman that is not respectable. My aunt came from a poor family, and her fiance(before she married my uncle) left her for another woman. My aunt has a sickness in her back so she cant do very much (wash dishes, work,etc.) Uncle and aunt seems depressed, and aunt is envious of happy people. She hates me and my mom and dad and all my relatives, and she is VERY INSECURE. Her children are home schooled, and she speaks VERY NICELY in front of us, but her children are depressed, insecure. One of the girls laughs at every mistake that I do ( I was 13, and she was a bit younger than me), and at the same time she attempts to copy my hairstyle and how i spoke. Later she called me fat about 20 times.... Red Flags: Happy and kind parents = happy and secure children, Abusive Father= unhappy mother and unhappy children...?

So I m a single mom with 3 kids and when my ex moved out and I was stressed out about how in the world I d afford childcare my mother said she would watch my kids since she doesn t work. She had her own place nearby at the time but would spend most of her time at my house anyway because she lived In the projects and hated it there so she got rid of her apartment and moved in with me. She gets disability payments and I pay for her expenses like phone, car, take her out to restaurants and outings and vacations whenever I go. She basically has no expenses because I pay for it all. Whenever she asks me for money I always give it to her. I recently paid almost $1000 for her dental work, all on a single moms income. Recently I found out she s been stealing cash I have saved in my room and taking out cash back using my credit cards. She s done it several times and each time I feel so cheated and tell her that if she needs money she should ask me for it so I know how much money I have/ don t have. I asked her about it and she starts yelling at me saying she was going to tell me about it and that I m ungrateful and selfish and if she were a nanny Id have to pay more. I say it s not about payment and she s my mom not a nanny but that I can t trust her if she s stealing from me but she says she doesn t even feel bad about it and won t apologize. I feel so betrayed, frustrated, and like I can t even trust my own mother. Advice?

My parents are going to be miserable but I want to have a nice Christmas as last year was hard. My brother committed suicide last year and I am ready to move on but they are not. I don't want to be selfish but I want to be happy and I am not happy when my parents don't want to go see the extended family. I know they won't want to and while I can see some others I won't be able to. How can I be happy on Christmas and Thanksgiving? My brother's 23rd birthday would have been Thanksgiving Day so that adds to the stuff.

I'm an only child of my parents and I have two half-brothers from my dad's ex wife. One of them, I feel like he's constantly secretly wishing that my parents get a divorce and he irritates me so much. Like once, he was at my grandmother's house and he was all mad and he told her that his father left them and married another woman and that he didn't know where all his father's money went.(I wasn't there, I overheard my grandmother telling my dad) and another time, he came to visit and I was in my room and I heard my mom and dad arguing about politics and my half-brother said "I don't understand how you two can stand each other like that. Like, how do you even live together." I was so pissed! It's so non of his damn business! I wanted to get out and tell him that at least my parents can handle each other while his freaking mother and my dad couldn't! I hate him so much now and I don't want to have any contact with their family or mother. They're all so nice to me but for some reason I feel that they're pretending to like me and I don't know why. The problem is my father's ex wife is his cousin. -.- so I have to see them at family gatherings and they would always call me to sit with them and I would always tell them no thanks I wanna be with my family and cousins. They're so irritating!! What should I do about it and am I reasonable? Sorry if that was long.

She just stole 15 euros from me. She gave me 50 after promising me 100 a few days ago. While I wait for the rest of my money she steals all I have left. Then again, my mom is an ***. Beating me and my siblings atleast once a weak. I live with her and 4 other sisters. Our last fight, however, proved I am strong enough to fight back even if she is holding a stick. I'm looking for a job. I realy am, but the fact that she stole my money and promises to bring it back god knows when discourages me from breaking a sweat. I plan on telling her that if she doesn't give me 5 euros I'll tell my teacher that she beat me. She's quite scared of that... She promises big things if I even talk about moving out before I'm 18. Lastly, our relationship is beyond repair. I hate her as a human being. I hate her as a mom. Her only good enough reason to beat my siblings and I in a country where it's clearly illegal to do so is the fact that her father use to beat her and the **** country she came from does the same to their kids. I realy want to get away from her, but she seems to be realy good in making empty promises to keep us from reaching out. Things that I realy want. My mother is a horrible person who beats me up whenever she gets angry and is constantly calling my siblings and I names. I realy want to report my situation, but if I can get money from her just to keep my mouth shut, I might just do it. I'm 15 BTW

So about 5 minutes ago she came into my room and told me that she wanted to talk to me so I said "okay go on then" but she said she wanted me to come into her room and talk, I was in bed and tired from working all morning at college so I said "no just say what you want here, I'm tired" She however refuses to talk in my room so I tell her I have nothing to say to her anyways so clearly if it was that important she would tell me here what her problem was. After I refuse to move she tells me she'll take my computer and phone away if I don't talk to her??? It really confuses me, I did nothing wrong yet she always tries to punish me and restrict me?

I have a few problems... To sum it up: 1. I hate my school and I'm doing whatever is possible to transfer. 2. My father is not paying my school tuition fees My mom doesn't have a job, but she has (had) enough money to last us a lifetime. She was being really irresponsible and spending a lot of the money at once, but she thought it was no big deal since my father was going to pay my tuition fees. The divorce papers say that it's his responsibility to pay for my tuition. My mom sold her old house, and now he's saying that he already gave her the money by letting her keep what she made from selling her house? I just don't get why they can't work it out! The second problem is that I'm absolutely miserable at my school. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it!!!!! It is all rules and restrictions and they have made me loose all my interest in my so called 'hobbies'. I really want to transfer but I can't see how in my current situation. Transferring schools is practically impossible because of blah blah blah Chinese government ****. Ok well my options are: 1. Stay in Beijing so my mom can open her fashion brand thing and stay at my school. :( 2. Move to Milan (my aunt has a house there) and go to a school that I will actually like but my mom will have to someone support us. 3. Go to a boarding school in the U.S. or Europe, which will take a lot of time and effort And I don't even know what to do about the tuition problem. Just incase you were wondering, I am a 13 years old girl

I currently live in colorado its just me and my son I have no family out here no help everything is getting to expensive, Im wanting to move to Kansas were I can get a good job I have family out there everything is cheaper but I have joint custody of my son. My question is what am facing if I go to to court to relocate or if they will even let me take my son? Since his lived in colorado all his life and goes to school here. His dad & I get along but I know there's no way we can come up on an agreement on our own if I were to bring this up so Im pretty sure we will have to go through the courts.

I think its weird, but.... my friend 25, lives with his mother still, going to college. I visit and he is walking around the house, his moms there, in briefs, right in front of her, nothing else on. Ive seen him walk into her room after a shower nude to ask her about laundry or something, and it doesn't faze them. Those 2 only ones living there Is this natural ?

So im 16 year old boy im my parents only child. First of all there is no problems between my parents or between me and my parents at all... But firstly i feel that my parents dont give affection alot like they dont cuddle or somethig like that but they always kiss each others cheek when someone comes back home. Secondly my dad is the boss in his work so he had a secertary she is a female.. Now she isnt a Secertary she is something else but still works there and i have noticed her calling my dad on the phone more than once when im with him and he never answered [when im with him]. More over, lately my dad had been acting strangely on his phone i always notice him on "viber" and if im there he always holds his phone in an angle so i cannot see, like its obvious.. Also, someone put a picture on viber i dont know maybe it was a funny pic or something so he wanted me to see it so when he asked me to look he pressed on the name by mistake and he was so nervous and tilted the phone away and told me to wait. In addition to that, today we were going to the club me and my mom so we were looking for our membership card and she told me to look in my dads drawer i looked there and i found mine then i wanted to make sure that my moms card isnt there so i looked and ive found a pack of condoms "durex" so i dont know like he treats us well but i dont know:/ i havent told my mom or anybody So what do you guys think??

I get extremely anxious around the presence of my brothers wife. When she walks into the room, I feel my heart flutter and I get nervous and feel in danger to the point of feeling incredibly sick. I don't really know her at all and have only had limited conversation with her. However she did disrespect my family a few years back by having a conversation about my mother behind her back where she made my mum look bad by painting a picture that my mother was uninvolved with my nieces, we are not quote on quote a 'close knit' family but my mother did do the best she could. I have never spoken to her directly about this. Since the death of my father 3 years ago. I have developed anxiety by her presence. I leave the room/house when she enters and I have cut communication with my brother and nieces to avoid any contact. I regard myself as a intuitive and empathic person and believe there is something behind my feelings. I have tried to research her on the internet and have not found anything yet, I check her social networks and she is conveniently always posting 'positive' messages. Very smart woman. I have called child protection and my nieces school but I cant find anything. The worst thing is that she paints an image that she is sweet and kind and everyone is falling for it. What should I do to catch her out? How can I warn family members without looking judgemental? Anyone else intuitive, how would you handle this

The guy she's seeing is my aunt's husband's cousin, looks just like my aunt's husband (who I can't stand because he's racist and ignorant), talks like him and dresses like him too. This dude is thirsty af. Always texting my mom and following her around when we're at family functions. My mom's starting to go on dates with him and I really hate it. I'm starting to get depressed about it too. My aunt doesn't even hang out with her kids anymore because they hate her husband, I worry about it coming to that with my own mom because of how much I hate this guy. The guy is blackout drunk all the time, he's slammed a door in my face just to talk to my mom, and he's came over to my house to hook up with my mom when me and my brother were like ten feet away in the next room. I get bad vibes from him, like sleazy vibes. My mom tells me I just catch him at bad moments and hold it against him but I get the feeling that, that's more of the real him than she thinks. My dad was abusive and my mom stayed with him for 17 years so I worry about her taste in men too. This is stressing me out way too much, I'm starting to fall into a deep depression because of my fear of her choosing this new man over her family, because it's starting to seem more and more like a real possibility. It's what my aunt did to her kids and it's a trend I see more and more in my extended family. I don't know what to do or how to keep my cool about this. I need some advice, I'm only 20 and this is gonna drive me bananas.

i had a fight with someone and he was the person at fault, this was a couple of months ago so this guy comes to me yesterday and plays all friendly with me and i wanted to apologize about the fight that happened , we go to his house and he says he wants to call someone from my phone, i give him the phone he takes the phone and refuses to give it back and threatens to pin a crime on me and trust me he can because of his connections with dirty copes and to me not being of nationality to the county i live in this could mean that i will get kicked out of the country. this was at 8:30 at night, fast forward to 10 oclock and he still refuses to give my damned phone back what happened is that his mom came out after i knocked on the door really hard because he refused to give me my phone back while we were in front of the house and went, i explained to his mom the situation she tells her son to give me back the phone but he still didn't, one of my other friends came and i explained to him what happened so he calls the theifs brother who is really strict and kind , he comes after a while and solves the problem and tells us to never come near each other, 11:30 came and i was on the way home, my mother is a really strict mother, at this time i couldn't answer the billion calls she left behind on my phone because it was with him so i called her before all that happened and fast forward i was in the wrong because he played the victim role in front of my mother. who is to blame?
