Every morning his sheets are covered in something sticky. I frequently ask him about it but he seems oddly embarrassed, should i be concerned that hes still wetting the bed at 17?

im doing a scary halloween stream tomorrow and i need someplace to send my family so i can have the house alone for me and my friend.

My mom is trying to cancel child support because I nor my sister lives with my father. Child support told her that unless I m emancipated from my dad, she can t cancel it. I m 18 and my sister is 20. My sister lives with my mother now and I live with my boyfriend. When we were living with my dad we received none of the child support money as in, my sister and I were starving while my dad went out drinking and spent weekends with his ex wife (stepmother). My mom pays every month because if she didn t my dad would send the cops on her. If you could help that would be amazing. Thank yu

My brother and sister in law are going to have a baby. They've been making little comments and I suspect that they expect me to be a free baby sitter or something. They also drop hints about some expensive stroller or other **** that they think would be a great gift for me to buy them. As if I have money. I'm a 22 year old college student, I'm single, and I didn't ask for a child. I'm really worried that they expect me to be like a second mom to my nephew or something. Not my story, not my life. I will baby sit sometimes and I will love the little guy of course, but THEY chose to have a child, not me. I hate the idea of getting dragged into this. I don't want to take care of anyone but myself, I hate the idea of having to be responsible for taking care of their child. What do I say if this ever comes up again? They don't seem to realize how unfair they are being.

My parents got divorced when I was 9 and it was a pretty nasty divorce. My mom told everyone that my dad was beating and neglecting me while she was gone during her deployments. Which was far from the truth, she was mostly upset that my dad cheated on her, but as far as parenting goes he was the best. I loved him, but it's not like I didn't love her too. But anyways he got arrested for her accusations and in turn the judge gave her custody. Although he was never charged with it. He tried everything to get me back. But soon after my mom sent me to live with my grandparents for 5 years and said she needed time to have fun. I never got to see my dad again and wasn't able to speak to speak to him again until I was 16. My mother said it was because the judge ordered him not to ever have contact with me again.... My dad said this was not true. But I feel as though she is lying. The divorce happened in Washington state. Is there anyway I can find out if this true?

I didn't realize how big of an issue this was until I started dating my boyfriend. I've spoke to many women who were wonderful, educated, kind, mannered and shocked to hear that problems with in laws, is a common thing. And it's always with women going into their man's family and not the other way around. Seems like the men have it easy. I have a mentor who is 60 years old and says for the first 30 years of marriage, she and her mother in law had that "elephant in the room". My friend told me how her mom had issues with her aunt (dad's sister) every time and had to "act nice" despite her being mean. I'm not saying it's like this all the time but it seems rare when there are women who are welcomed by other women. Unfortunately, the women in my boyfriend's family (in general) come off as insecure and jealous people. His mom and sister are twins are act like those who have low self-esteem...I am just realizing this as time goes on (confirms it more and more). Any kind of good news someone has, they complain about it. My sister went to a trip and his mom said, "oooh are you jealous?" and she said it in a spiteful way. Why would I be jealous of my sister going on a trip? If anything I'm happy for her bc she needed it. The mom/sister constantly talk about how other women are "ugly". They are not friendly. The mom is okay with me and his sister is very hot/cold and I find it manipulative and weird. She'll stare at me like she admires me yet give me the cold shoulder, yet her body language in pictures show otherwise (her head leaning towards me), so it's weird. I'm not sure if it's calculated or if she does have low self-esteem and feels bad around me? They're the type of people who are "bothered" and play passive-agressive when a woman takes care of herself and it shows. I can't be around people who are like this and it makes me realize how lucky I am that I have few female friends who are loving/supportive. Advice I've been given is to not tell the bf and be fake. My mentor said that you could be mother theresa and if you're around insecure women, they will knock you down. I'm wondering if their behavior is because of me? But I've been told someone's action towards you is a reflection of how they feel. So what if they don't like me? That's not an end all be all, right? I have someone who really LOVES and cares about me, has done things I never dreamed a man would do for me...why give that up over mean girls? If I did, it shows they have won, right?

I'm an adult and hosting a party at my own place but my parents are trying to talk me out of it. I am inviting my mother's brother whom she hasn't spoken to in a few years and she feels I am not fair for doing so. She also warns his wife may take advantage of me in terms of gossiping to me (as she may). Any tips at doing this without feeling guilty or should I bail on this? My mother and her brother have long had issues so stopped talking after their parents died in 2009 and 2011.

I have a house now and like having people over for a social but don't want them to be sick of me (it is family and mutual friends of the family). How often would be too often where people would feel awkward like I am trying too hard? My grandmother died so there are no socials anymore and am looking for things to replace that which is why I'd be doing this.

I'm 13 years old and my family are struggling to provide foe my sisters and I. I really want to help them but I don't know how. All I can think of right now is saving money on the grocery shop as we don't really spend too much money on anything else. My mum is sick so she can't work and my dad passed away 3 years ago. We rely on my two older sisters', aged 20 and 27, salary and that has to support them, me, my mum and my two younger sister aged 9 and 10. We don't get benfits because my sister's work and even then that's not alot. They have to work part-time so they can look after my mum and pick my sisters up from school/care for them. I'm trying to help but I don't know what else I can do. Thank you.

my sons mother bad mouths me and is a sociopath. the teacher has never met me but i told the last school alienated me due to something the mother said. I sent in and sign a time for a teacher meeting but the teacher gave the primary time to mother even those i sent in an agreement first. teacher- The conference note I sent in Gavin's folder on Friday was meant for his mother. You indicated that you wanted a private meeting and I was going to send a note in childs folder tomorrow with the meeting time for you. mom has indicated that she will attend the conference on Tuesday the 27th at 1:05 pm. You are welcome to attend at this time, but if you prefer a private meeting, I can meet with you on Thursday the 29th at 2:20 pm. > Please let me know how I can best accommodate you me (dad) - The form I signed was not addressed to Kristin and was turned in on time; however, you say it was "meant for the mother." teacher - I assumed mother would get the note since it was a Friday. The note was meant for his mother because you specifically requested a private meeting and I had a different note I was going to send home on Tuesday the day I was told you pick Gavin up from school. I cannot meet on November 3rd. I can meet with you on 10/27 at 1:55, 10/28 at 2:20, 10/29 at 2:20 or 3:10, or 10/30 at 1:05. Several of these dates are days you indicated in your note that you were available to meet. why would the teacher give preference to one parent over the other? how is this not discriminating?

So I live with my parents while I go to school and work ... Happens that yesterday I went out and I did cooked and clean my house. But today's at 6 am in the morning my mother woke me up to tell me that there was not food cooked and everything was dirty ... Actually what happened is that my dad ate all the food and left everything dirty , he always does this and she never says a thing to him.moreover, I am always playing Cinderella at home cooked , clean, clean, do errands , pay the bills on time , buy groceries , go and get milk at 9 ok because there none .... What to do to make this different?i can't move out because I am paying for college ...

So one night my sister asked me to apply oil on her back ( she has like pimples on her back from the heat ) but I was talking with my brother about an imporant issue so I told her that I will do it after a little while, and she started screaming that it's late, so i want to apply the oil but she started to call me names ( she always does that ) so i left the room and she locked me out, and since then, she started to make my life as bad as possible and always locking me out, until one day i hid all the keys and then, my other older sister stood by her side ( although i always helped her and gave her my life savings to buy her car) and now she told my mom that she wants me to move out of the room and give her back everything she ever gave me ( most the things she gave me i payed for them either with money or with doing stuff for her ex. Tidy up her room, message her feet/hands , cook her dinner and other stuff) So what should I do?

I'm 14 and my sister is 13 and she said she has a sister named Josie and Josie is 17. She said she found out about Josie when she was 8 and Josie was 12, but Josie is missing and she hasn't seen her for nearly 2 years. What could this mean? Especially at her age, we have a brother and 2 cousins who she loves to play with so I don't think it's because she's lonely, she doesn't have an interest in making friends and says they're useless. Also she hasn't even mentioned Josie and she said she met her when she was 8, only Alice and Toby and a couple other imaginary friends (who are still around but she doesn't talk about them) Is it a ghost? What could this mean? Honest answers please I swear this isn't a troll! No, Mady, my name isn't Josie, I know my own name, maybe you should tell your parents to learn how to spell before they give a failed abortion a name.

My story is very long and personal, and for that reason I will not post it, but if you need more information in order to help me then inbox me and I will be more than happy to explain. I am 16 years old, and I am adopted. When I was 2 years old I was taken from my biological parents by the state because they were both heavily addicted to drugs. When I was 3 my biological father s parents adopted me. In order for me to be adopted my biological parents had to sign away their rights and agreed to do so as long as they got visitation. When I was 4 my mother cleaned up and made a life for herself, and she has been clean for 12 years now. When I was 13 my mom stopped the visits, she said I was no longer allowed to see my biological mother because she did not like her and said she felt that she was trash. A few months later I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety and had to leave school because I was self harming and even tried to take my life. I am 16 now and recently found my biological mother through social media and have secretly been contacting her. Since contacting her I have been doing much better and have been clean for almost a month. I am trying to find a way to be able to live with her, but I don t know what to do or where to start. Please don t give me unhelpful answers, I really need facts and the name of a good family lawyer if anyone knows one, I know some people may see this as selfish but all I want is to be with my mother again, please help me.

My last name is Lambert and I have always wanted to know what it means.... So what does it mean? The last name Lambert not the law of beer lambert or something.

My birthday was 2 days ago. i didnt get a present, i would even be happy with a rock. They didnt tell me happy birthday, they didnt even speak to me. The only person who said something was my older sister, and thay made me feel a bit better. Last year they forgot too, and 4 months later, they told me happy birthday. I cried in my room for hours, and then my parents started calling me selfish, because they thought i was crying cause i wanted a present. But thats not why i was crying at all, i just wanted to have them remember me, because when they forget, it makes me think that wasnt a day to remember, when i was born, and that it wasnt a important or special day. My parents are always calling me lazy, selfish, an idiot, fat, ugly, etc. They dont want me, and i know it. The other day i was playing with my dog, and i was throwing a ball. My dog ran into the wall, and i felt bad, so i started talking to him in a higher voice. My mom starts yelling at me because i was the one who caused him to run into the wall, she said i pushed him. Me being me, i said that i didnt push him, and started explaining what happend. Then she yells at me for talking back, and calls me all these rude names. This happens everyday with little things, and im always crying. Im happy to have parents, i just feel like they dont want me, and they want me to move away

Before you' all start hating me, just hear me out why. Every day, every single day, she constantly reminds me of everything, even though I already know, but she still does it, anyway. Whenever i argue with her, she acts like a stubborn brat, saying things like, "You want to go on your own, do it; I don't care!" which is a complete lie and just her way of acting immature. Lastly, when I'm driving, she criticizes and berates my driving skills, thinking that I can't drive, even when I know what I'm doing; she thinks I'm incapable of driving and wants her friends to drive me to my university, which just irks me because it would impede my experiences at driving. Tell me, am i the bad guy here, or do you agree that she's annoying?

I want to run away, I'm 16, in first year university (long story, kindergarten was only every second day so my mom put me in grade 1 bc she wanted to get rid of me)... and its so hard to live... my mom always seems disappointed in me, and i take care of my baby sister, while in university.. thats all i do, my life is school, sister, homework, sleep... i feel guilty all the time, and on top of that, i have diagnosed depression and anxiety (that my parents dont even know about)... i want to go to europe and never look back, and get help... i know i can do it, i take care of myself and my baby sister now and work my *** off to put myself through school and to pay our rent, and i just want to run away from it all... idk.... i feel so alone and even though im paying for everything, my mom doesnt let me do anything... i have to be home on time, i never do anything with my friends, i didnt even choose my degree, my mom did.. idk sorry about my grammar, im a bit upset so i dont care to fix it

so awhilee ago i took the bicycle that me and my dad share and took it for a ride. at the time some stuff was going on between me aand my sister. she stopped me while i was riding and started talking to me i started getting snappy right off the bat because we were both stressed out t eachother. she then decided to take me home right away but she forced me to leave the bicycle there in park where it could easily get stolen she then took me home. when we went back,, the bikke was gone. for her own sake, lied to my dad and she told him that i left it there and i walked home. my dad believes her and wants me to pay for the bike which is 3000 dollars or he will kick me out. what should i do?

Lately I've been very frustrated with my sister, because she's been very selfish and inconsiderate lately, but I also think that it's stemming from depression or stress. We've drifted apart, but I want to try and make her feel less sad and try and get her to be more interactive. Advice?

I was sleeping in my bed at 12am and my phone was next to me charging. But i wasn't asleep and i heard a sound which suggested that i may have kicked or nudged something off my bed so i got my phone out to get the flashlight. But at that exact time, my mum walked in on me and got a whole different picture.I tried telling her what happened but she wouldn't believe me nor would my dad. She took the phone away from me and told my dad that i had been on it during the night. Now what they're doing to me is keeping it away from me as soon as i get back from school and will only give it to me at homework breaks. But other than that, i never have the freedom to go on my phone. Now this irritates me as i am a growing 14 year old and don't like this feeling at all. If i try to put on an attitude in front of my parents then they'll never give me the phone back again and idk what i'd do without it. Please help

My mum always looks down on me and I don t understand why ! When I get good grades in my exams, she would say don t think you are so good , something like that.When I get terrible grades, she would say something that hurts me or despises me. No matter what I do,is always wrong. Hitting the gym, running, JUST EVERYTHING ! She would always have things to criticise and things she is unhappy about.When I tell her my goals, she would make fun and say that I would never achieve them. Under such circumstances, how can I cope ?!

My daughter loves to swim and is on a local swim team. She had a meet last weekend and she started crying after she swam. She was mad because she did not do as good as she wanted. When we tried to talk to her she kept crying and would not stop. She said we made her nervous and that she wanted to do better. She is 12 and I think her little hormones kicked in. But her dad who has been coaching her on the side and trying to make her better. But now her father are now not talking for over a week and he says that he is done taking her to swimming and coaching and will not even talk to her about anything. I tried to tell him that she was just nervous and that she wanted to do better. That she wants us to support her on swim meets but she gets really nervous gets herself worked up. He refuses to listen or even talk about it. What can I do. They both are stubborn but it has never been this bad. He thinks the coach and I are ganging up on him and trying to push him out which actually I have been quiet to anyone about what is going on. Help!!!

I'm an adult. Dad only loves my sister and he wants nothing to do with me. If he can avoid me he will, he only care about my sister. He don't care about things that concern me, but if it is about my sister he does.

I have one of the worst mothers.She is negative and toxic.She has been ruining my life for a very long time and I went through hell just because of her.I'm newly single.I'm stuck I cant move out of the house.i cant tell my dad anything about it because of their marriage.i don't want them to break up because of me.Sometimes I don't want to come home because i'm scared of my mother,she can argue with me whenever she wants or talks in a bad way.She also makes me feel like i'm a burden for her.I'm really stuck.No one in family knows about it because on my mom's side her own mother is like that.I cant tell anything to anyone on my dad's side for the sake of my dad's marriage.did anyone go through situation like this?how did you come out of it? I don't live in a western country unfortunately.i live in a country where children move out only when they marry or they go abroad for studies or work.I'm really stuck.My biggest worry was being like my mom 1 day but i'll try my best to break the cycle and treat my kids well.

The stats say yes.... http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/religion/story/2011-12-10/religion-atheism/51777612/1?fullsite=true

In albania there are different types of families. There are the one's where mom takes care for the children, the house, the cooking and everything, so she doesn't work. In this family dad is the only one who works and provides money for the family. This type of family is very common in albania. There are those family where both parents go to work and they take care of the children at the same time. There are those kind of families where both parents go to work and the grandparents take care of the children or the parents hire a babysitter. And at laSt there those family where mom goes to work and puts her career first and das takes care of everything, but this family is not very common in albania. Thanks to anyone who can help me.

I'm fifteen

When I say comfortable I mean living in a nice area that's not too far from Manhattan either in Brooklyn or Queens, traveling at least twice a year, once domestically, once internationally, and eating out whenever we want.

I honestly don't care if it "mocks my family name", the surname Universe is awesome? (Yes, I'm a huge fan of Steven Universe) How would I go about doing this?

I'm 12 years older than my sister(yes, BIG age difference) and she is in preschool/kindercare. She caught some stomach bug that makes her nauseous and vomits every hour. Now, my parents caught it and are throwing up non stop. We can't go grocery shopping and are eating less food. My dad has to go to another country for work. Will they be ok? What kind of sickness is this? What can I do as a teenager... take part time job?

I m about to turn 18 now. And I feel like I don t wanna live any longer than this. I really hate myself. No matter how hard I try to be good, no matter how I try to be my best, I m always the bad one through my mom. She hates me a lot. She says if she had the chance to get another daughter, she would not pick me. I really hate myself for that. I get really scared everytime she diciplines me. She uses a large stick or a belt to punish me. She really loves my brother, as much as she hates me. I m always on the wrong side. I think she don t want me anymore? Does she want me to die? I feel like I don t wanna live anymore. Please help. My mom and dad always fight because of me. I m not that bad. I swear. I think my mom really just dont love me. She despise me. What do I do?

Admit it - she was right wasn't she??

My family is not really big on words.. Growing up we most likely teased each other rather than saying I love you. I don't mind saying it too, but I find it awkward when I think about telling my mom face to face how much she means to me.. I let her know I love her every night, and have quick conversations with her everyday. I know i can hug her, kiss her, write her letters on her bday or any holiday. But Im 16 now and I have 2 baby brothers so I can't see myself always hugging her and sitting next to her and never letting go of her hug, because that's what my BABY brothers do and i'm already too old to act like that. Can you list other ways of how I can let her know? Thank you in advance!

My dad. Back in middle school if I wanted something like if I asked for a new phone or asked to go to school dances, he would tell me I need to kiss him with my tongue for however long he wants. Id say yes thinking that he would let me off without doing that when I came back but he never let me go to sleep without his kiss. He would make me touch his private part and punch the side of my head if I refused each time my mom left me alone with him. I didnt know it back then but I realize that he was making me touch his private part and making me massache it putting my hand in an up and down motion. I think he was making me "jurk" him or whatever its called when they put their hands on there and go up and down. He would also beat me up for making a B in school, not hearing what he tells me the first time, and making him call me more than once. I would try hurting myself hoping he would feel sorry for me and not hit me. I will not tell the police on him because they might take him away then my little brothers will grow up without a dad. Now im in my sophomore year of high and im really confused because he doesnt hit me as muh anymore but i realize that he s worked long and hard to keep us healthy. He hugs me and I care about him but I dont know if I should tell him i love him after how he would treat me. Will i regret not showing him how I care when the day comes that he isnt in this world with me or not? Tough question.

Me and my mom live together.Yesterday I was lying naked on my bed.After taking the shower I laid naked.I forgot to close the door.Suddenly my mom came in came.I try to cover my dick with my hand.Mom said be normal this is not a first time I am seeing you naked.She also said you have long dick.Do you think its normal?

She has the same age as me but she was prettier, smarter, popular, she already got a first job while I'm still at school and she was also able to join a college. She has money to went out and I really hate seeing her wearing sexy dresses and tall high heels because I'm chubby and can't do that. My parents praises her every time and that makes me fell completely useless and yesterday she suddenly bought a SUV. I was speechless, my mom said she was very proud of her and I felt humiliated when I saw her driving such a huge car all by herself. I'm feeling depressed, my parents compare us every time, could I do something about that?

A distant cousin just moved in next door. He and his girlfriend walk to work and when not working only drink and get high. I have 2 young sons and a wife..as soon as I get off of work and he see's my car, he always wants a ride to the liquor store, or to purchase weed. He calls or knocks at my door every day. Should I get mean with him? We were closer in our younger years, never too close though and haven't really spoken until he moved in. haven't really spoke to him in 7+ years.

I've always been an independent person, but when I was 15 my mom decided to go back to work, part-time, and stop being a stay-at-home mom like she has always been. When I turned 16 she decided to go back full time, as part time didn't really have an effect on myself or my 13 year old brother. She decided to go back to work as she enjoyed the office lifestyle before we were born, and now that we're older she decided to go back. It wasn't really because money problems as my dad owns 2 successful businesses. I don't want to sound selfish, but it does hurt that I don't spend as much time with her as I used to. I am an honours student at school, so I am normally studying, but right now I'm on break and it would just be really good to be able to see her more. Any advice on what to do would help greatly.

i'm trying to decide between two tiffany bracelets with two different stones. but i don't know which one my mum would prefer. is there a way i can subtly ask her without giving it away? any ideas? thanks

So I've been with my boyfriend for a year, and I met his mom for the first time. He didn't want me to meet his family but I really wanted to. His sister and father are really nice and caring, I like them a lot. His mom is a whole other story though. First off she commented on how I had no meat on my bones and that I would never be able to have a child, she even asked if I still have my period (I'm not even underweight) in front of everyone. She looked at every part of my body and she commented about everything bad and this made me very frustrated. I told her to mind her own business and just shut up. Then she started to shout at me that I'm disrespectful and that I'm a sl*t that no one will ever love and that she will kill me if I continue to be with her son. My boyfriend then drove me home. He apologised and he said that he won't let her meet me again. I'm shocked and I still can't believe what she said. Im scared because she knows where I live, and it's not that far from her house. Do you think she will hurt me or harm me in any way? And what should I do to solve this situation? His mom and he is in a big fight now and I am guilty for starting this fight between them. What is your opinion on this and how can I make it up to them? I was wearing jeans and a sweater. Thank you but I'm not a hooker.

So i got into an argument with my boyfriend over the phone at 4am in the morning. I woke him up (called him) at 4am one morning and started an argument. He was very angry with me and started cursing at me and my grandma eavesdropped in our conversation and heard him fussing at me. She said to him, "Do not call my house no more!" And then my boyfriend responded with some not so nice words and they had an argument. Later in that day, he apologized to me and said that he wanted to apologize to my grandma but now my grandma is saying that she doesn't want his apology. She doesn't want me talking to him. He and I obviously made up. One day he called the house and she answered saying, "I thought i told you not to call my house?" I was angry about it and i told her to let me handle it instead of her answering the phone. She got angry, started tearing up saying that i'm choosing him over her. It's not true. I'm not choosing anyone and I also understand that she has every right to have a say in who she wants calling her house and who she doesn't. I feel like i was in the wrong that morning for waking him up out of his sleep but i also know that he was responsible for arguing with my grandma. I don't know what to do here. I love my grandma very much and i also love my boyfriend.. i don't know what to do here! Please some advice?? Almost my whole family hates me now for still talking to my boyfriend after he cussed at my grandma.

I used to be really shy in school and really talkative at home but now its the opposite cause I'm facing depression

Hey so to put it bluntly my dad is an asshole. Whenever I'm around him we end up fighting and sometimes it gets ugly. I don't know what to do about him or how to live with him, and I'm thinking about killing him to ease my own pain. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

I have been with my boyfriend for 5 years living together for 4 and last year his son moved in with us full time. I am 24 and he is 32. I am from Scotland but moved to England just over 5 years ago with my mom because she left my step dad, she has had to move back to Scotland to support my nana who had a stroke. Anyway I have finally decided to leave my boyfriend he is selfish, he drinks every night (though not excessive), he has a horrible family who judge everything and always think they are right (they are always wrong), I love his son but he expects me to love him as a mother would and have motherly instincts by now, he then says if it was my child he would be far more like a dad than I am like a mom. My issue is we share my bank account, the house, pets and I have no familyrics where I am and no friends here that I could stay with. I don't even know how to start to end this relationship.

My dad raised me by himself since I was 11 and he's always been my rock. I live with my husband whom I've been with for ten years and love more than anything, but I frequently get these overwhelming feelings of depression when I think about the fact that I'm about to turn 26 and no longer get to lean on my dad. I don't know what's wrong with me. I miss the comfort of being little and my dad being there to protect me. I cry and have panic attacks over it all the time. What do I do? This clearly isn't normal.

My dad is really my stepdad, but I know him as my dad. I want him to die. I know my family would be ****** if he died, since he makes the money, but I want him gone. He's an abusive asshole. He's making my mom depressed, because he's barely here. I hate seeing her so depressed, but I secretly love that he isn't home as much as he used to be anymore. They also just had a baby together, and he barely sees her. My mom has to take care of the baby, 3 little kids and 2 teenagers with no help. Ever since she met him my mom has changed. I remember when things had started getting serious with them, I was only 8. I liked him a lot at first, but after me, my mom and 3 younger siblings moved in with him, everything changed. He started being a straight up dick. He sometimes will snatch my siblings up an scream on them, but he never really hits them or anything. Only me. He will choke me and throw me around like a doll. Mostly just for talking back at him, which I tend to do a lot. I'm just unable to hold my tongue sometimes. He's an egotistical idiot. (The rest of the question is in the answers)

Im 5 1/2 months pregnant & my brother has weed in the house. He does know im pregnant & am not supose to be around stuff like that, my mom has talked to him about that twice already but yet he cant take it out of the house. I really dont know what to do hes been so disrespectful to me saying i wont be a good mother to my daughter & that i need to abort her... hes on probation but his probation officer already said he isnt his babysitter & yet he hasnt came to the house to check up on him, my mom does have some struggle with handling him because of his behavior, he disrespects her in anyway that he can & makes her cry in times.. i dont know what to do here, i feel like if his going to be bringing that stuff around i might as well just leave my house for my own daughters health but ive got no where to go so thats why i tell my mom that he needs to get that stuff out & the only thing that she ever does is talk with him & he doesnt listen to her, is there anything i could do?

This is gonna take a minute to read so be ready... So when i was 3 my parents divorced and i lived with my dad and he worked a ton and my mom never really was around and so i grew up basically with my dad and we didnt really have alot of money and he always did his best and i didnt really understand when i was younger so i kinda resented him for it and i was always made fun of at school because i didnt have all the stuff the other kids had and so i thought having money was the normal thing and i even hated myself, then my mom into my life she had married into some money and so i wanted to move over there and i did 3 days before i turned 13 and i went over there and i slowly made real bad decisions drugs, sex, fights and i may be having a kid soon and my life just took a s*** basically when i came over here and now i have been here for a year and i need to go home but every time i try to bring it up to my mom she starts tripping balls and freaks out screaming at me sayin how i hate her and all this other b.s. idk how to tell her without killing her my life is f***ed any way maybe i should just end it but at the same time i cant just leave my kid like that if it is mine

My parents are probably the most laid back parents you'll ever meet. My dad tells me all the time about his college stories, and how he was a pothead in college. They still smoke occasionally to this day, but they are really on edge about me smoking. For starters I'm 20, in college and have a 4.0 GPA as an engineering major, and smoke weed almost every day. It's never a problem when I'm away at college, but when I come home it's like they think I'm 14 again when it comes to weed. One day they'll brag about me to one of their friends, but if they think I'm high or smell it because I have stuff out they freak out and talk to me as if I'm an unemployed lowlife who will never amount to anything. I know they're parents, but I think they should accept me for who I am, and trust that I will be able to control it. I just want to know if there is anything I can tell them to make them understand. Thanks,

My sister is 12. She is going through changes. Me and her are left home a lot. We are the only siblings to a mom who works all the time. She was wearing a black shirt with spandex shorts and I had a gray shirt with black shorts. I was in the bathroom cleaning and she walks in, put her hands like if she is hugging me and starts French kissing me and sucking on my lips. I ve never kissed a girl before. She hasn t kissed a boy. I let it happen. She was literally just sucking on my lips for at least 2 hours. All I did was put my hands on her buttocks. I went so far as to putting my hands in her shorts and grabbing her buttocks. I don t know what to do. It s been on my mind all day. What should I do?? Please give me answers. Thanks.

I am 30 years old. My mother wants to control every aspect of my life. She never respects my authority and always tries to give me unwanted advice. She tells me what to eat, how to save my money, and always calls me dumb. She always criticizes my life decisions and after making me feel like nothing she tells me she loves. I feel this is mental abuse because how can someone tell you they love you but always makes you feel worthless. I am in a very bad state of mind. I am going through a divorce process, i am failing in school, level of stress is at all time high and my mom still doesn't understand how bad she makes me feel. Is it wrong for to block her number? How can I deal with my mom? She loves to push my buttons and when things don't go her way or in her time she becomes a tornado destroying everything in site my ego, self esteem, all with her words. Please advise.

so lately my temper gets to an overwhelming point. if something didn't go my way I just boil inside. I've been trying to get my horse prepared for tomorrow's rodeo in the morning. so for example, I'll have her stop and stand still. but she won't stand still. she'll back up and move to the side and try going forward and I'll try stopping her but she acts like she's being killed when I'm BARELY pulling on the reins. she'll open her mouth and shake her head as move around even more. it gets me so extremely angry. and today I asked my mom if she could iron my shirt while I shower. she said no and I started to raise my voice and get sooooo upset. no, my mom wasn't being mean in any way. when this happened I realized that I really need control my anger because I shouldn't have gotten mad at my mom when she did NOTHING wrong. I feel really bad about it. I'm a 16 year old female. I'm never ever like this. if you ask anyone they'll tell you in the super sweet, innocent and quiet one. I don't know what's gotten into me and I need it to stop. any ideas on controlling my anger?

About three weeks ago around 8pm my mom heard someone knock on the wall next to the window (or somewhere; it sounded close by that place) it sounded like it was being knocked on wood. ever since that day between 8pm-9pm we both smell incense. two days after the knocking (I didn t know about this yet) she smelled it on her own for both days. The first time I smelled it, was when my mom and I went to sleep around 1am-2am. That s when she told me she had smelled it before. She says it smells like flowers and candles (or church smell). I just smell it. When we re at the computer desk in front of the window, the smell comes and goes. Does anyone know what this means?

Everyone I talk to that has one seems to think they're great, problem is, I can't find a god damned use for it. The watch is pointless. I can't substitute it for my phone and use it independently when I'm about and about. This means I have to have my phone on me or around me at all times for it to work. The app selection is garbage and most apps are 3 or lower stars. They're all gimmicky and useless. No way to make skype calls, all their messenging apps are bad, no Facebook, no Rhapsody, no kik, no way to manage my banking, no facebook messenger, no real web browsing. The navigation around the watch is tedius, I have a headache just using it. I'm going through all this and I might as well just pull my phone out of my pocket and use it! What's the point of this useless watch?

I'm 21 i love my mom let me first say I respect she is the women that raised me (single mom) at that she far from perfect but I do admit she did the best she could. Around high school is when I started to get this annoying hatred feeling when I'm around her she put me in debt my using my name to get thing when I was younger she had a boyfriend that hated me and we struggle a lot mainly because of him so I have a lot of anger from that but honestly I've matured so much this year I'm letting a lot of that go and leaving it behind me. But i cannot knock this feeling of wanting to put a bullet in my head whenever she talks or is around me I'm thinking of moving out of state just to get away from her am I horrible for this I know it sounds bad but this is seriously how I feel and it's not like one of those teenage girls omg mom I hate you type things anymore I'm 21 and I HONESTLY! HATE BEING ANYWHERE NEAR THIS WOMEN. But I love her just don't like her! Am I horrible?

I am asking this question because I am clueless on what to do. I have just turned 18 . However, my family problems still hunt me every minute of my life. My father was deported from the U.S after he was send to jail. He had his documents in order but he had such a bad record as he was found drinking and driving. I was 9 . We struggle with economical problems as my mom was trying to make a living out 1,000 a month. We made it through. Until I turned 16 and my mother lost her job. We couldn't afford to pay the rent so we moved with family but they were really rude. My uncle had a lover who lived with her 3 children and had enough room for us to stay. My mom paid 200$ a month . Unfortunately, this was hell. The lady has bipolar and schizophrenia disorders. She is nice but her yelling is really awful to endure. My father called us and told us that we could go live with him. However, he lived in Mexico. He was staying at Tijuana. He told us that everything was going to be ok and that we were going to be reunited as a family. My sister was raised in the United States but she did not have legal documents to return . She is an honor student. Her freshman year ended with a 4.0. Personally I was ready to began my studies at UCLA. We knew that it was going to be a struggle but we were excited to leave with my father. He came months later drunk. We want
