Question: My aunt doesn't like me anymore? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:04 PM PST I've never been the kid who's sociable. I'm very timid. In all honesty, I don't get a lot of emotional support at home. My parents are busy with their jobs, and I feel like I have anxiety, and often feel suffocated. When I bring this up though, my mom dismisses it as laziness and tells me that I'm a waste of time, that there's nothing anyone can do to help me, and does verbally abuse me. My dad's barely home. My aunt's always been there for me. She's married in, but I'm still close to her, and have been able to communicate my problems better with her than my mom because she doesn't treat me the way my mom does. The last couple years have been rough. There's been many issues going on at home, school isn't going too well despite how much I'm trying, and with my anxiety,it feels like everything is falling apart. The thing is, my aunt has her own daughter now, so it's different. I miss the times where I could openly talk with her, and the times we spent. I feel replaced; like all that love and care she had for me is gone now. I don't talk to my friends too much about what's going on because they wouldn't be able to empathize. I've started to feel like I'm not good enough for anyone, easily replaced, and I've started feeling helpless that nothing's gotten better. I miss my past and the many memories. I really want to tell her how I feel, and about how I feel replaced, but I'm too scared to. I really need some emotional support right now. Thank you so much for your help! x |
Question: My mum and sister shouted at me. Did I deserve it? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:03 PM PST My name is Daniel and I'm 17. Like 10 minutes ago, I came downstairs to tell my mum something. When I was halfway through my sentence, my sister told me to shut up because she was watching something. I then ignored her and started saying the sentence again, but when I was halfway through it she said "SHUT UP! I'M WATCHING SOMETHING!" I then said to my sister, "I don't tell you to shut up when I'm watching TV. So keep your f**king fat mouth shut and let me talk to mum." But when I said that, mum said "you have absolutely no right to talk to your 12-year-old sister like that. You should be ashamed of yourself. Apologise to her right now" I then said to my mum that my sister is the one in the wrong and that she deserved every single word I said. My sister then started shouting at me and we had a verbal fight that last another 5 minutes. A couple of swearwords were thrown in the rest of the fight as well and at the end, my mum sent me to my room. Did I deserve to be shouted at? Am I the victim or is my sister? |

Question: (10 points) Please Reply ASAP Is my mom expecting me to eat it? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 12:58 PM PST My mom was making desserts for guests to serve at tea time tomorrow. I just arrived from college and asked what she's cooking. "I'm making this for guests tomorrow and also for your sibling tomorrow since she's coming over to visit this weekend. If you're thinking 'why don't she ever make something special for me?', well, too bad. Look at yourself! Loose some weight! No, I would never be cooking DESSERTS for you!". It hurt my feelings but I just "Okay!" as if everything was cool. I'm 5'4" and 200lbs I'm crying out while writing this... I'm in bathroom crying. Should I eat that piece of dessert as if nothing happened or do I never ever touch it? What is my mom expecting me to do? |

Question: Why Did My Family HATE Their Christmas Presents? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 12:09 PM PST Our family, being busy bees every year, always celebrate Christmas before Thanksgiving, usually the first week in November. I myself am a single gal of 39 but am what you would call "working class". I work part-time in a coffee shop, with no benefits and am currently living with my off-and-on boyfriend. My mother, feeling bad for me, gave me some money to give others in the family presents. I told her this would mean a lot, but then squandered the cash on a night out with my man instead - because I'm sometimes impulsive. To quickly find a way to get gifts for everyone, I glued together homemade cards made from scrap paper. When everyone was opening presents, my uncle and aunt politely thanked me for their "interesting cards." But my brother, being rude, audibly made it clear I was cheap. "These cards are tacky." My mother also did not look pleased, and pulled me aside- asking what I had done with the money she gave me. When I explained to her the truth, she scolded me for making poor decisions, and also embarrassing her with the cards. I still think it's the thought that counts. |

Question: My mom leaves my 10 year old sister home alone!? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 11:55 AM PST My mom leaves my sister home alone all the time. She HATES it. she begs my mom not to but my mom says shes old enough. Wear I live you half to be at least 12. The longest she ever been completely alone for was 3 days. What should In do. I tried talking to my mom, Thanks Anna, I have tried talking to my mom multiple times but she says shes the parent im not. My sister cant cook either. When she is alone a whole day or more she does not eat AT ALL, but thanks! Also my sister believes in ghosts like me and she says there is one in the house. |
Question: I am at such a low point in my life at so young. What do I do? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 11:30 AM PST I ve recently scratched my exes car unintentionally (which was already scratched before I did) and owe his mother almost $1400, which is half of what I ve been saving to get my own car, i called the mom to ask her if The collision center takes monthly payments and who the cashiers check was going out to and she called my dad and told him that I harassed her. I just got scammed with a bad check! so my account is negative about 2200 dollars, I have money in my other account but it s a few hundred more than that. My recent boyfriend broke up with me because he found out about my ex and is his friend and I didn t tell him as soon as I found out, I told him a few weeks later. He was of course upset called me a liar, and now I m starting to believe it because my dad says that I m conniving, a liar and a manipulator who thinks I m so smart since I called the boys car that I scratched. I isolate myself and keep almost everything that isn t perfect from my dad a lot because he is very judgemental and sometimes he s right, but I can t tell him about my dating life and things that happen. I made a stupid mistake and didn t respect myself last night with a new guy who is an immature bad guy tried to rebound with and regret it. I keep making poor decisions so quickly and it s like everything is crumbling before my eyes and it s very overwhelming. I ve always been an A/B student who was intact with Jesus Christ and now I m just changed ever since high school started. How do I change back? |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 11:19 AM PST My stepdad was accused by my sister of molestation. My sister lives with her foster parents and later said that our biological mom (me and my other sister live with our stepmom and stepdad) told her if she did it, she would get a phone. My sister lived with us for around 7 years and had a really good relationship with our stepdad. I don't believe my dad would ever do anything like that, and love him very much. But even though my sister said she had lied, there is still an investigation going on. Because of this, my dad has to go to trial and until it is ended, he can't see or talk to us, which means he can't live at home. He comes back home when we are at school so that he can do stuff that needs to be done at home. My mom keeps telling me to write him a letter. My sister did, and my mom said that dad had cried when he read it. I do want to write him a note, but I don't know what to say. This sounds really mean, but I don't really miss him. It's not that I don't love him, I do, i just feel less pressure at home. Because of this it has been hard for me to write him a letter. What do I write? |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 11:13 AM PST I'm not even good at driving a go kart and i bump into walls, my mom and dad say i would fail anyways and not allowed at all to get my drivers license and I'm 23 years old women and my brother is younger than me and he got his at 18 every time i make my own decision i get yelled at for it and scream at life is really making it impossible for me to have a life my parents refuse they tell me i can't move out or get a job i want to end my life |
Question: My brother gets really aggressive. What do I do? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 11:00 AM PST We are sharing a game, and he hasn't been to school. He played the game from 11:47 to quarter to 7 and yesterday I played it for about half 4 to 6, then 7 till 10. Sounds stupid but when I asked to play it he freaked out. Got crazy and called me a toddler. Sounds stupid I know... Has to bring my mum into it. Went on about how I stormed out and if I tell my mum then I'm a toddler. I'm 15 by the way and so is he. And I should deal with my own problems. He's know in a right strop and I know he's gonna have a rant at me. I know this is babyish but seriously he gets in strops so easy. Anything I can do? |
Question: Can someone please tell me how to handle my issue? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 10:02 AM PST Today in my Spanish class my teacher wrote me up because I was accused for throwing gum and spiting at some girls. They threatened to hurt me. We've been having issues since around August or September. Today they teased me when I told the teacher that I did my project alone when she asked me if I worked with a team or not. I just told her that and they teased me for it even though I was serious about it. I talked to my ap today and he said that he will do a further investigation ask them about it. I really did spit and throw gum but I was so ashamed of it that I lied to my assistant principal. My parents know about it because my ap called my mom so the issue also is how do I tell my dad what happened if he is mad about it. He normally gets mad if I don't tell him sooner about my issues. Also they normally tease me and I get angry with them and avenge what occurred to me but I feel guilty about it so I lie about it. Will someone please help me now? Thanks |

Question: Why getting back in my house makes my feel bad? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:35 AM PST I'm 20, I live with my parents, sister and her kids. Getting back to house makes my feel bad, powerless.. Why? |
Question: I hate my dad's girlfriend.? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:33 AM PST I really hate my dad's girlfriend. When my mom died five years ago, my dad started dating his secretary who has two kids. At first, it was fine but then it became apparent that she did not like my sister and I. Then, 2 years ago, she said something which deeply hurt the both of us. She said that it was good for us if our mother died of cancer. My dad and her have been having an on-off relationship these past five years and during that time, she ****** up a lot. Recently though,she hit my dad and even tried to put a something against him at the police. She has no professional ethic, is ill-mannered and she said that my dad's business is a place for sluts but then always ends up crawling back. This woman has a past of always ******* up her relationships, be it with her mother, her sister, her brother, her ex-husband, her daughter (who ran away to stay with her dad) and even her two best friends since childhood are not talking to her. She talks behind everyone's backs. For some time, my dad seemed to be doing fine but now I have a distinct feeling that he is back with her and he's not telling me. I respect the fact that it's his life but I don't want to see him get hurt by this woman. What do I do? |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:29 AM PST Basically what happened was I was about to eat Corned-Beef Lugaw (Filipino Soup Dish) and I sat down with my sister. She sang this annoying song from MLP and she sang it in a terrible way. I just told her in a nice way to "shhhh" and she cried. She smacked me in the forehead and cried. My grandpa HATES this. He always blames me. So I'm sitting there, blowing my soup, and she thinks I'm telling her to be quiet because it sounds like "shhh". She cries again. I get in trouble AGAIN. And then, she starts playing with her food. She uses her fork and splashes it. Remember, she is a kindergartner. THEY DONT DO THAT. I tell her, "okay [Insert Name here] please stop splashing your food. And she hits me again, and cries. This the worst year I ever had with her. She's turning into a spoiled brat. My dad disciplined me not to be like that. Sure, I ask for stuff, but if he says no, then no. My sister even says stuff from videos that she doesnt even know. and turns it into her saying of, "I hate you." Like for example. Me: "[Name], stop. [Name]: No. Me: [Name] Im going to tell dad. [Name]: WELL IM HUMAN. (mumbles stuff from videos that I cant even understand) Me: What are you saying? You stop watching that. [Name]: shut up! Based on a true story. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:17 AM PST I reached back out to a guy i went on a date with months ago just to hook up. (its been almost 2 years since i have done it). Since i reached out we have done it 6 times (in the past 2 months). All times he is cuddling with me A LOT (too much) and playing with my hair, kissing me on the forehead a lot, pulling my tight close to him to fall asleep and holding hands. He always asked me to text him when i get home and he would text me again the morning after asking how i slept/woke up/made it to work. One time i left in the middle of the night without saying goodbye. He texted me the next morning "Hey! You snuck out on me :)" like he was disappointed. He texts me every other day asking how i am doing. He finally called me. The past 2 times were more passionate and when i was leaving he pulled me in and said to cuddle for 5 more minutes. He told me he loves my smile and that he can't last long with me in bed. He does text me throughout the week even early morning to ask me how I'm doing. Kisses me when we meet and say goodbye. Now he has mentioned that he wants to hear about this class I'm taking over wine and cheese at his house. I feel ok about the whole thing but is he interested in something more? He's a doctor and busy, i work in finance and am busy. Hes 33 and I m 24. Is this a normal hookup? I think im showing signs that I'm not interested in more The only thing we haven't done is go out on a date date or not had sex when we hang. I haven't mentioned it. |
Question: Mom that texts and drives. Help? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:08 AM PST Okay, so my mom has a habit of messing with her phone when she drives, whether it's texting or some other stupid thing. Even though she doesn't do it when i'm in the car (because i'm there to stop her), she does it when she is driving by herself and it worries me. I know she does it based on the recent activity on her phone, plus she even texts me while driving, so she is not exactly hiding it. But whenever I bring it up, she gets snappy and angry and doesn't want to talk about it. What's even scarier to me is that she is a rural mail carrier, so she basically drives for a living. In general, she just acts more like a teenager than me, and i'm 18. Thank goodness I have my dad, but that's not the point. She needs to stop and think about what she does and how it affects others, but all my attempts have been unsuccessful. What should I do? |
Question: My 2 half-brothers hates me & my baby sister & my dad? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 09:01 AM PST Im a 11 year old girl & I have 2 half-brothers (15 & 13). I dont hate my half-bros, but they disrespect me & Bully me alot & they call me a whore everyday. They even threaten to kick my @$$ if I do something to my mom (their mom also) & their stuff. I don't hate them because they are both my bros and I try to hang with them, but everytime they are always bringing me down & they sometimes act racist towards me. Im half white (Dad) half hispanic (Guatemalan mom) & my half-bros are full hispanic (salvadoran, guatemalan) & they call me words like half cracker, partial peckerwood, etc. They have met their dad & their dad taught them kickboxing & grappling so they know how to fight. Their dad died along time ago & that made them devastaded. They have grown anger issues & they have been bringing their anger out on me. They always also make my baby sister cry by scaring her, taking away her things, etc. They have also said alot of things to me that have made me cry. I go to school with my 13 year old half-brother & he never talks to me like a brother should talk with a sister. My 15 year old half-brother goes to high school. Me & my 13 year old half-brother are in middle school. They hate my dad because he married my mom & their jealous because of him & me. How can I get along with them? I don't wan't them to hate me for the rest of my life. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:49 AM PST If a son chooses not to mourn the death of his grandmother (father's mother), is it normal for the father to be depressed? The reasons for not mourning have to do with the estranged relationship between son and grandmother. |
Question: How to deal with annoying relatives? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:47 AM PST The Holiday season is coming up and that means probably lots of family gatherings are lying ahead.

Have one of those too? In that case please help us out and tell us … http://yahooanswers.tumblr.com/post/133008131172/the-holiday-season-is-coming-up-and-that-means |
Question: Homeschooled and desperate! What should I do? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:40 AM PST So im homeschooled, 17, and have never had a boyfriend. My parents won't even allow me to text boys. My mom is very strict and I can't even watch pg13 movies. It's a surprise she even let me have access to the internet right now. One boy at my church just asked me to go to a Bible study with him, and I'm just really scared bc I know my mom would think that was totally inappropriate. How do I go out with this boy while still respecting the wishes of my mom and her conservative homeschool views? |

Question: I'm ready to kill myself? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:25 AM PST My mom says I will never peruse my dreams and she threatens to hit me. She always cusses at me and doesn't care I wanna die. My step dad jokes around to much and makes fun of me claiming its life and I should deal with it. My friends hated me and never liked me. I always get talked down upon at school. Everyone I love is dead. No one cares about me. I just wanna die. I'm ready to kill myself. I'm crying as I type this. I've fallen into deep despair and depression. My parents don't care. I'm a ****** up kid. I'm done. Thanks for listening internet. Goodbye. |
Question: What can I get my dad for his birthday? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:14 AM PST I'm going to the mall today and my mom gave me 30$. My dad is about 57 and I'm 14 ( the youngest, a girl) I have no idea of what to get him. He likes military stuff like old guns, ribbons, medals, helmets, uniforms and he likes history of stuff like wars. He also has a red corevet ( type of fancy car). He is in car clubs and military clubs. He watches foot ball but not a big fan. He likes old shows. Idk his favorite color. What could I get him? |
Question: My dad is stealing from me? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:51 AM PST My dad is stealing my money from me. He has a piece of paper he tallies up for every time I don't do the dishes. I wasn't aware of this and he has these stupid "fee" things. Examples- dishwasher start up fee, and other ones and adds a dollar every time. He already stole $10 from me and he has complete access to my bank account. I'm going to be 18 soon is there anything I can do. I already had an argument with him about this and he doesn't care and I can't do anything about it. |
Question: I can t deal with this anymore? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:46 AM PST My mother always breaks me down. And she just said something that really hurt me. She knows I ve always wanted to be famous. Today she and my step dad said that s too hard and that somebody would have to pick me on the street and chose if I become famous or not. Basically saying I m never going to become famous. It was really hurtful because I don t think its right to tell someone who has their heart set on something "good luck with that" and laugh. I got really upset and defensive because it my dream. And then she started saying I ll never get in because "I get upset easily" and that I ll never survive because apparently I ll get all upset over one dude that says "you suck". But of course I m gonna get upset if its my own mother that tells me I ll never make it because of who I am. Random people telling you you suck is different from having your own parent tell you the same thing. I can handle hate. They ve only seen my bad sides because they make it that way. Think about it, if some random dude came up to you and said "I don t like you" you would not care. If your own mother said "I don t like you" you would be upset because it s your own parent. I ve dealt with thousand of people who have called me mean names and such, but when someone close to you says some mean things it hurts. My parents laugh at me because they are convinced that I m always sad about everything. But that s not true. They don t understand that it s them that makes me unhappy. I ran out of room above. Anyway they don't understand there's a difference with how I act with others than I do with them. I hate it so much. They make me sad all the time. I'm on the internet a lot and I've dealt with trolls and random rude people. It's different dealing with people you don't know than dealing with your own family. They don't understand that. And it bothers me when I can't get it through their heads. I feel so sad knowing they think I'm weak and can't handle things. I just wish it would all stop. Having a mother tell her daughter she's not good enough is the worst thing that could happen. She never wants to hear what I have to say. She says it's annoying. I can't handle it anymore. I literally have to run to the internet just to make myself feel better. Maybe my mom was right. Maybe I am too weak. I want to die. If my own mother thinks I can't peruse my dreams than what's the point of even trying. I might as well die since no body gives a crap anyway. It's not she cares anyway. No one is counting on me so I could just get out of people's lives and die. I'm sorry whoever is reading this. I'm sorry I'm wasting your time. I really do suck. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:43 AM PST The oldest is in middle school and is mostly good. The two youngest are in lower middle school and pitch fits and whine and cry and fight about the smallest things. They call me mean and yell at me. They do not listen and will never go to time out when asked too. It stresses me out very much . I don t enjoy it and I feel bad because I made a commitment. When I say no to something they call their mom and whine, I cannot stand it. I want to rip my hair out, and I ve never had trouble babysitting before. It seems like the mom doesn t really appreciate me and now I m suppose to bring them to her some days? Which isn t what I signed up for because that cost me more gas. I just hate it and what to quit. |
Question: Why do I get the feeling my cousins are annoyed with me? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:26 AM PST I get this suspicion that my cousins (particularly from my step-dad's side) are annoyed with me or don't like me. They're both girls like me; one is 14 one is 3 months older than me. I'm 16 btw. I met them when I was like 7. From the first day I met them, they always seemed indifferent. While I was so excited to have more cousins, they were like okay. No big deal. The one who is my age, got into arguments me a couple times when we were little. I can't remember for what, but I remember always being envious. I still am, kind of. Envious that everyone from my dad's side adores them, that they have a social life with friends and boyfriends, that they seem to be better at everything than me. And they are so sweet with all the other relatives. Even my brother. When it comes to me, I feel that I'm a bother. I guess it's because I talk a lot. And the one that's my age, is always trying to seem better than me. I catch her in so many lies, ever since we were little. All in the name of being everything I can't be. Also, is there some kind of unwritten social rule that you're not supposed to ask your cousins to add you on social media? Because every time I ask it's like pulling teeth trying to get a follow back. I try not to be persistent. I only ask once or twice in the time of my visiting. So yeah That's a second question I had. If anyone has gone through this and figured out why this happens, can you please tell me? |
Question: Is this like as weird as it sounds? Is it legal? Effective? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:24 AM PST Before I even ask I want to state that my mother is awesome and I have NO intention of getting her in trouble. I am just surprised & want perspective. I am 15. I've been spanked a couple of times, but it hasn't happened in years (since I was like 12?). The last week my sister and I have been bickering BIG time,which is not normal for us, but it was getting out of hand. Mom talked to us, tried taking away TV & phones, finally she grounded us from each other's rooms & said if we kept it up she'd spank us. I was shocked to hear her say that & to be honest, didn't take her seriously. this pm I went in my sister's room to look for some clothes of mine. My sister came back, we started bickering, she said I wasn't allowed in there, I lost my cool & shoved her Just then my mom appeared. She was livid at both of us for arguing & me for being in her room. At that point she took me to my room to "talk" to me. Little did I know she also expected to make good on her threat. She told me I'd be getting the spanking-I argued but didn't resist, she had me bend over my desk, and spanked me over my underwear with a ping pong paddle hard enough to REALLY hurt but not hard enough to bruise or anything. It was about ten pops. Afterwards she gave me a hug, but reminded me I had had a clear warning. I know I was in the wrong.This just came from so far out of the blue& I just don't know anyone who gets spanked at my age that it leaves me curious 1) Is this legal at my age? 2) Is this common? |
Question: Starting at home day care. Question for parents.? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:11 AM PST I am 22 and have finished my certificate in early childhood development. I want to have a career in childcare, preferably at home child care. However, I still live with my parents. I plan to move out within the next year. I just want to get my feet on the ground a little before I do so. I was wondering, if I were to go ahead and try to start my business now, if parents would be interested in sending their children to me even though I live in my parents house. I know that this may look a little unprofessional and immature to some. I do have some money saved up so moving out is an option. I was just wanting to make a little more money before making that jump. And any suggestions parents may have for making my business more appealing are welcome! I know I am young and I'm a little afraid that that will turn some parents away from me. I do plan to go to school and get at least my AA, but unfortunately I lack the funds at the moment to do so. So until I have the money that is on the back burner. I will take any and all suggestions. THANK YOU |

Question: My moms boyfriend wasn't so good with her.? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 06:37 AM PST So before I was born my 25 year old mom dated my 19 year old dad and my dad wasn't good with her. Shortly after I was born they broke up and my mom started dating an old man. According to family members my mom looked much more calm and better when she wasn't with my dad. What could this mean? |

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 06:05 AM PST My mom makes me feel horrible and pressures me a lot when it comes to grades. What's the point of always getting perfect grades? Even if I do a slight mistake, she'll make me feel terrible about it. And I've tried talking her into stopping pressuring me, but she won't listen. She doesn't listen to me at all. So what do I do? |
Question: My mom is making me go crazy. What do I do? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 06:03 AM PST My father left her years ago. Left us I mean, with 4 other siblings. I don't blame him. My mom is crazy. Well.. My point is that he's out of the picture. My mom is poor and does not have a job. I'm currently looking for one, I'm 15. Whenever my mom is very angry she will beat me or my siblings. It's not frequent but it happens. I want to report her. Is that a good idea? My teacher told my mom to be very strict because she wants me to improve my grades. I trusted her, I thought she wanted to help. But no she had to make things worse. I didn't tell her about the abuse though. Just that I don't generally enjoy studying. Well, my mom is going to tell me that I'm too lazy to have a job, that trying to grow out my hair makes me look dumb and all sorts of dumb things she was brought up into in a 3rd world country. I'm going off topic, but it was kinda a rant anyway. Can I request to be adopted? Will I be believed if I make claims about abuse and my siblings deny. They hate her just as much as I do. But she has led them to believe that they will surely be separated if they report abuse. I don't realy want to stick with my siblings, they are stupid and I realy wish I did not have siblings. But if I'm the only one saying that she abuses us without evidence am I going to a place for Crazy people? Yes.. That is a serious question. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 06:00 AM PST So I'm an 18 year old guy and a senior in High School and recently my younger brother (16) introduced us his girlfriend, who he has apparently been dating for a year but has been embarrassed to say anything, even though the girl is super hot? Who knows with my brother. Anyway, me and my own girlfriend had broken up, and that girl was totally asking for it, so I thought why not? It's just sex, anyway. So we slept together, but because I'm a total moron and forgot to lock the door, my brother caught us and then started crying like some sort of baby, rambling some stuff about feeling betrayed or whatever. How do I get him to keep his mouth shut and not tell our parents? |
Question: How to stop fighting with my family? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 05:55 AM PST For the past year or so I've fought almost every day with my family over the stupidest things. I've tried avoiding them, ignoring them, talking to them about it, putting myself in their shoes...But nothing has worked. I know this is hurting our relationship, but I can't seem to stop! Please help! |
Question: Is it possible for a younger sibling to be more mature than the older sibling? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 04:50 AM PST As in a relationship where younger sibling is the mature one whereas the older sibling is the annoying one. |
Question: My aunt is becoming disrespectful? How can I handle this situation? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 04:32 AM PST I have this aunt who lives in another state due to her work. Lately she has been acting rather strange. She is treating me like a little kid while she treats her daughter(11 years old) like an adult. She first used to be a nice aunt who used to come over to the house during Christmas time. Now whenever she comes down to visit the family for Christmas she never comes to visit me. For 2 Christmas's I didn't see her despite her staying with my grandfather.I have this suspicion that she is avoiding my parents, brother and me.She called my mother one day offering to pay for my prom expenses. She says this over the phone but don't come to mother in person. On Facebook her comments are rather offensive in these 3 situations: 1.) I once posted that I passed my third term exam and people liked it. She comments, saying the following: "You better pass, You have no choice in the matter. Well done" 2.) A few days ago I posted a picture of my new haircut. Now it was only by luck that I had time to take a photo and post it on facebook. Numerous people liked my photo, then my aunt comments and this ruins my fun: "Hope you are studying hard and not only taking selfies". 3.) A few months back my cousin posted a status and decided to reply with words of wisdom. My aunt replies:"Ah you two, Too young to be philosophical". I am a little pissed off with her attitude. How can I handle this situation? I'm 18 years old |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 04:07 AM PST She and her husband of 2 years are in their 39s. They are very settled yet. Grandson is 2 years old. Tried to settle in the Midwest....lower expenses and all of my daughters family is here. My son in law is homesick and wants to go back to the coast. Never had lived elsewhere. So scared that he is never going to settle and take care of his family. When they leave they may never see some of her family again. Grandparents and such. I want to be positive and send them off as happily as possible. BUT I am not happy. NOT convinced that this is the right thing. Don't have the money to make this right if it doesn't work. WILL miss them and all the missed times/experiences with my grandson. I have had anxiety difficulties over this but am now coping. Haven't discussed with them the fact that I have doubts about this and the monies are limited. HAVE said that they are always welcomed back here. That way if all else fails they can come home.....wont be in the street. Should I discuss my fears with them? Should I remind them that there is a bottom to my purse? Need them to know that they need to make decisions like they don't have me as a safety net. How positive should I appear? I know you are supposed to love people with a open hand. I am confused, sad and broken hearted. They both are in their 30s. They are not very settled yet. |
Question: What does this mean, and does it sound like they were hiding a social group from me? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 02:47 AM PST My teen brother basically told me he is in a situation where my eldest brother complains about him listening to loud music after 6 PM around the home. But he initially said it in a way where it sounded like they are members of a social group where the eldest brother is now going against him for having a different taste in music, which I now suspect is evidence of my eldest brother permanently excluding me from such social group since I missed out from attending that certain event when parents took them there late last year I'm a person who always had adherence and acceptance well before my siblings even got the idea of following such social group and eldest brother excluding me from it. |
Question: Why do my parents judge me solely based on my ACT score? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 02:40 AM PST Yes, I'm Korean and my parents are strict. Yes, I'm "meant to excel" in academics because I'm Asian. However, quite recently, my mom has been yelling at me about how I didn't raise my ACT score (30 at the moment) up to her standards. My dad (for the sake of "keeping peace") supports my mom with none of his own opinion. It struck me that my parents don't "love me for who I am" but think of me just as a number. Not a day goes by without one of my parents (or both) nagging me or yelling at me about my flaws. I told them recently about the superscoring, where we can submit the best scores we have to colleges. My mom's response, as expected, was not positive. She yelled at me about how I'm trying to take the "easy way out" and how, even if I do get into a college of their standards, I'm going to survive in there. This whole ACT thing has been stressing me out (unimaginably) and it's starting to make me depressed. I really feel helpless and I don't want to go another day through this. Please help. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 02:34 AM PST My mother does her best but has battled with mental health issues for most of her life. She is deeply insecure, pessimistic and struggles to see the good in things and people. She found it hard to raise us but she tried her best with the skills that she had (both of her baby fathers left her) My dad is not a good person, He left my mum with 3 kids however my mum has never stopped loving him. He is well aware that she loves him and uses it to his advantage. He knows that my mum cant handle criticism very well but yet always finds a way to inform us when someone has said something negative about us. Knowing how much it would kill my mother. I have a big sister that was kicked out of the house at 13 and ended up in foster care, it was because my dad told my mum that my sister had said something bad about her. The same thing happened with my aunty. My dad told my mum that my aunt had said something negative and my mum stopped speaking to my aunt for over 30 years. More recently, my dad told my mum that my nephew said something bad about her, now my mum has seized communication with my bro and his whole family. My dad does this so he can tell his family that it is my mums fault that he never kept in contact with us. He knows my mum very well, he knows how fearful, toxic and paranoid she gets over criticism so why would he keep doing this. Now I have very little family to talk to about it. I'm left to bit up the pieces. He is the common dominator. what should I do |
Question: I don't feel a bond between me and my only sister, is this unusual? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 02:20 AM PST I come from a family of 6, four boys and two girls. I am one of the girls, I never remember my sister being around much when growing up. I was always around my brothers, even other family members would forget about her. She's 32 and I'm 23, I try to communicate with her but i feel like we have absolutely nothing in common. I also feel uncomfortable around her as if she's a stranger. And the oddness doesn't come just from my side she'll only talk to me when no one else is around but when there's other people around she won't even make any attempts at speaking to me, it's like I'm invisible. Can anyone else relate to a sibling relationship like this? |
Question: Grand daughter won't accept gifts? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:55 AM PST My grand daughter will not accept any kind of gift. I think it has something to do with what happened when she was younger. Around 16 she was very anti social. She always had depression but it got really bad. She didn't really talk much to anyone. When Christmas came around my wife (my daughter from my first marriage has a different mom from the rest of my kids) decided the my grand daughter wouldn't receive any gifts. She basically made my grand daughter watch the entire family open gifts and she didn't get anything. Also for the following holidays birthdays and graduations from high school and college the rest of my grand children received presents except her. She wasn't given any warning about it when it happened the first time. I felt bad for her. Now my grand daughter is 25 and married with a new born. She will NOT TAKE ANYTHING from my wife and I. Clothes money diapers toys. Nothing. I know it is because my wife. I've said sorry many times but my grand daughter will just say "oh no thank you my baby had everything she needs"... What can I do to fix this? |
Question: Should I tell my older sister that I'm being abused? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:53 AM PST My whole family don't talk to me. When I wanted to say something they're always ignore me. They never took me to places. I never get new clothes. Basically my older sister does whenever she gets paid. They love her more than me. She's the favorite. My mother always show kindness to her while I don't. I always sit in my room, listing to music and crying. My family wants my sister and not me. I sometimes get abuse by them especially my mother. However my sister loves me. I never told her because I'm afraid to lose her and i may be kicked out in the streets. She's the only family member to like me. I hate lying on her where I received my bruises from since I was forced not to say. She's the perfect one they say while I am a useless mistake. |
Question: Ladies mature question? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:51 AM PST We we're 18 and dated two years. We never had sex because she said she was a virgin and wanted to wait. It was also an on/off thing for those 2 years so today we're now 20. I recently asked what she's done? i was trying to find out if she's dated anyone. She said i dated but nothing serious. I tried asking how far she got with them? and she wouldn't answer it. She soon answered with a sarcasm voice/face (kinda like how you repeat what someone just said to you in a funny voice and face like mocking) and said "i had a threesome" and she covered her ears and speed walked away from me. Normally if you we're to ask someone a question they will answer yes and no that's it no need to go around beating around the bush. Why do you think she did this????.. |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:40 AM PST I like hugging him for lots of times every day when I'm not trying to make him mad.. My dad can be a little over the top sometimes so i dont alway feel comfortable around him and my brother is always so serious too but he acts more like a gentleman while my dad usually yells at me and sometimes hit me. I looooove hugging him and i can do it every single day if i am not mad at him. When his gf is here though, and she hugs him and smiles but at times i feel like i want to be the only girl in my brothers life and be the only one that can hug him. This feeling comes naturaly and i dont dislike his gf she is sweet and very pretty. I tried to stop feeling it but it doesnt go away |

Question: How come my older brothers pay more attention to my sister than me? Posted: 11 Nov 2015 01:02 AM PST Jon my 2nd oldest bro travels around alot while my sister lives in Houston and my oldest brother is in the navy. I live with mom and dad in another city since i'm not old enough to travel by myself yet. When we are all together my brothers pay more attention to my sis and hang around her more. Its sad and awkward.. Maybe its because I used to hit jon with my swords and we used to fight alot when we were little so he feels awkward if he's nice to me? Angelo always hangs around her when we're together also and I barely get to see all of them nowadays. But i never hit angelo with anything so i guess he just bonds more with sis. Oh i'm their little sis, but i like hitting jon alot when we were little because i like swords |
Posted: 11 Nov 2015 12:14 AM PST I am 19 weeks, and the father lives in a new state. I have been having to grow up in this town and figure out what we need for the baby, how to get these things, talking to people, and trying to figure all things for this baby, along with having to deal with these body changes that I am not used to I have currently gotten into fights with my bf since my second trimester and he didn t care. He would bring up dumb questions like " how many weeks until they no longer give an abortion?" And such. And Id always be like that s not happening & he d try to reassure me that that was not what he was getting at. He s rarely asks me about the baby, and never checks up on how I m feeling. Well while he s been gone I found out he started smoking weed. His Fb messages would have bong messages about getting high, and he never told me. But he knew I d read them on fb so i don t think he was hiding it either. He doesn t seem like him anymore. And he seems careless about our convos sometimes and always ends it with " we should just chill" -basic high sentence. So I guess I just want to know if I m being over emotional because of pregnancy or if he s really in the wrong for not trying to be informed and won t even tell me when he s smoking or getting high down there, when he had probs w/ it before. Like to me I think I have to take on all the matureness and control this relationship while he gets to run around and do whatever he wants in college. And I m 3 years younger than him. |
Question: How to convince your parents to let you move across the country? Posted: 10 Nov 2015 11:47 PM PST okay so i want to move to california (i live in new jersey) but my parents refuse to go. But i need to be out in LA, so how do I convince them to move with me or let me go on my own somehow? and please dont say 'wow you really think theyll move for you' or 'how do you expect them to move for you' because their companies are nationwide and they could easily keep their jobs even if we moved and they always complain about how cold it is and how much they hate new jersey, the only reason they dont want to move to LA is because its filled with tourists. so how can i convince them? also no saying im selfish please because i wanted to move by myself but im too young and i cant wait until im 18. |
Question: My husbands mom asks for way to much and it's draining our pockets. What do I do? Posted: 10 Nov 2015 11:43 PM PST My husband was a stay at home welder he has 2 kids and things were going great until his mother moved in. She gets 800$ a month from disability, we bought her a car. She stay when she wants if she finds a boyfriend she will leave us high and dry and we have to change our work scedule and figure out how to get the girls, she basically was full of broken promises and games. Her and her bf broke up and she moved back in with us and money got so bad eventually me and him agreed that he start working out of town to make more money and he wanted me to go with him and go to school online and I was very happy with that. Well it's been a month we payed for the bills for the house his mom and his 17 year old and 15 year old daughter live at we pay rent, electricity, water, and money leftover for the girls. Well his mom got her money the first and just now called us and asked us to pay for the girls straight talk phone. Which we give money for that. She up and went and decided the house needed wifi and got it without asking and now there goes another bill. We are yet again behind on bills. we should help her but to a certain extent. I mean she's running him dry and he just lets her do it. I've had problems with her in the past. She one time accused me of stealing her food stamp card. Please someone give me advice on what I need to do? And talking to him about his mom is like a very sensitive subject he will not budge. But enough is enough. I'm losing my things because of this woman. |
