My parents promised me something 5 years ago and they kept promising it. I am really pissed of because they don't do what they promised. What should i do? Thanks

I overheard my mom talking on the phone w my aunt and she was talking to her about things I've written in my diary (and this was months ago I wrote that stuff, she was bringing it up today). I got so ******* pissed off, not only because she read it and it clearly says in there not to, but she's always sharing MY personal business with other people!! I've never been able to trust talking to her because she always talks to everyone else about my issues which is why I started the journal in the first place. All she's ever done was betray my trust. I have a lot of things in there that I never wanted to talk to anyone about and I have no idea how much she's read! And I hid it pretty well too so she must've been going through all my **** while I was at work. I'm just so ******* angry and I feel so betrayed and I don't know what to do. I'm not going to confront her because it will start **** so I guess I'm just ranting, but seriously am I wrong to feel the way I do?

I'm 21 years old, grew up with a drug and alcoholic dad. He spent a lot of time in prison as I grew up. I struggled with things growing up, I ran from everything, now Im a drug addict letting opiates and heroin consume my life because its all I feel I have to look forward to. I got kicked out of highschool at 16 and been working manual labor ever since. I do carpentry and handyman work, I would like to be a carpenter one day like have a business and make a living. I have a 2 year old daughter that I love. But I am in and out of treatments and jail, I have no friends, I don't even know what I'm doing on this site asking a question. My heart just hurts and I feel alone and have no friends I can go to. Thanks 4 reading my name is Chris.

Im 18 years old currently living at my Boyfreinds moms house. Me and my boyfriend are thinking about ending the relationship. the problem is, is that Id become homeless. Nobody in my family would want me, even my own mom and dad. I have no car and a crappy Job at jewel osco that pays 8,70 a hour.... where or what can I do?!

So it all started on my dad's birthday. My sister and her family (Husband and three girls) Ricky (my sisters husband) was drunk out of his mind. He only had a little time left to drink because my sister hated the drinking so much. It was normal for maybe 3 hours until Ricky was looking for his keys. My dad didn't want him driving and my sister had been drinking so Cherie decided to just stay the night. Ricky didn't want to though. So he was drunk and looking for the keys my dad took and hid. Ricky found out and he was asking my dad for them and this is when it all went downhill. My dad said come and get them. Ricky didn't want to fight him for hem and this repeated for a minute. Ricky was going to leave but my dad wanted him to lie down so he gently grabbed his arm but Ricky pulled away and slapped it and it broke out into a fight. My dad literally punched him and flipped him onto the ground. They had a baby I was watching and she was in my arms crying and screaming. My dad tackled Ricky and held him in a CHOKE hold. I was screaming at them to stop and finally my dad let go and Ricky limped out the door. No furniture got broken but Ricky ended up with a broken ankle. I'm scared to do anything and the baby and I are ok and I have the baby wait me in my room. Everyone was in the backyard. I dont know what to do! Please help!!!

HI. My parents promised me that they will buy me a PS (they promised it like 5 times) and they also promised that they will buy a laptop. So,because they didn't i asked them and they said they will buy when they will have money. Today they bought an 50 inch tv. I am really pissed off. What should I do? Oh yea,i did not want anymore the laptop or PS,i just want an monitor. Should i ask them? Thanks

My mother is a saint. She is the most hard working loving mother I know. I am the second of two children. My brother ( who i havent spoken to in 5 years) is 12 years older than me. My mom had a baby young and then waited till she was ready. A lot of pressure was always on me to be the best. My brother dropped out of school, fell into drugs and ended up in jail. I was my parents second chance at doing it right. Up until about 4 years about when I was 20 me and my mother did not get along. In the past few years we have become best friends and I see all the horrible things I did to her as a teenager. My mother doesn t really know me. AT ALL. At 15 I came out gay but did t tell my parents till about a year later and that did not go well. I had sex with about 20 different guys in that time. I developed an addiction to pain killers. (I stole a bottle from my grandparents once and she asked me if i took it and I lied). I had a drinking problem. I was raped at 18. I was in a relationship for about 3 years where I was a secret. He had a girlfriend and I was the 3rd person in a very screwed up love triangle. I fell that becuase my mother does not know these things about me she cannot really get to know me and know why I am the way I am today. I feel like if she knew all of that then it would explain why I was so horrible as a teenager and that it was nothing she did. I have no siblings to talk to and my dad is no longer around. I just don t know what to do.

During the summer of this year I just turned fifteen which means I am legally allowed in my state to get a job. Lately for a couple of months and you could even say for a while, it has been hard to pay bills because my dad got into accident which led him to not work for a month which delayed things. This also led to me not being able to pay for my permit in order to learn how to drive, pay for school clothes, and some school supplies as well. I talked to my parents about working before and I recently saw that there was a Mcdonald's opening near my house and a new frozen yogurt shop. I asked my parents if I could apply and they both said no because school is back in session. I understand that school is back and that it is a very important thing to focus on. But the things that I need or want I am hardly able to get them because of the lack of money and because the way my dad is managing money. For some reason after we get a paycheck we are always broke in some way or bills are being paid late. This has happened ever since my dad started taking over the bills and before the accident that happened this May. My mom has been looking for jobs but most jobs have declined her because of her hand and she has chronic pain. I feel bad that I have to keep relying on them for money and since I am getting older I feel like now is a great opportunity to start becoming more independent for myself. I told my mom and she said that I don't need to because they can handle it. I know they care.. but I know for sure that they cannot do everything that they said they can. For an example, school has started and my parents kept promising me to go back to school shopping before it started and kept saying they had the money when they knew they did not. I don't like the lies or false hopes and if they honestly cannot get it for me, and since I am growing up I feel that it should be my responsibility to work hard or earn the money myself if I really want something and not just sit around My dad doesn't discuss what goes on financially and of course he doesn't have to tell me and that is his right but he doesn't tell my mom either and it is just frustrating with how there is literally hardly any money in the household. My dad got upset that I wanted to get a job as well. I asked to babysit but then my mom says no because it is too dangerous and she doesn't want me to get raped, murdered, or harmed. She said the only way I could do so is if they could drop their kids off the house it would be fine. But what parent would allow that and I feel like they would see that as something creepy. Do you think that I would be able to thrive that way? I am running out of options here and it is not my fault. I looked for places but I keep saying no and even if I did work around the neighborhood I would be told no because my mom or dad would call it unsafe and I don't live in an area that is known to be dangerous. I know this is a dangerous world but I don't need to be helicoptered. Is there any way that the form of babysitting my mom will allow will gain business or if not what are other ways of how I can gain money because I know for sure my parents don't have extra especially within these 3 to 4 months. Thanks and some advice will be helpful as well. I also get good grades at school (As and the lowest would be high Bs).

Your thoughts on this? She wants to take a trip with 3 other 20-something year old young ladies. I don't want to let her borrow it because our car already has 100,000+ miles on it, we are still making payments on it, and I want to take care of our car to the best of our ability since we wont be able to afford another car for a while. I think that they are all working ladies and should pitch in to rent a car, and if they can't afford it - don't make the trip. Am I wrong?

I have observed the roles of grandparenting in my lifetime compared to my children's and have noticed a drastic change, sort of a shift. It seems in these times more and more grandparents are raising their grandchildren, then you have the opposite effect of grandparents that are nonexistent in their grandchildrens lives. I like to say that our family has a somewhere in between when it comes to the older generation. My husband's parents are in their early 60's and live less than an hour away his mom works, and his dad doesn't. When she isn't working they go shopping together, take road trips, friends etc so yes they still have plenty of energy. I get the sense they don't want to have one on one time with our children because they have begun to invite us over as a whole. If we ask them to watch them for an evening they are unavailable especially for my husbands and i's anniversary possibly plus I feel guilty for even doing so. Can anyone help out there with making sense for me? Please and thank you

I know everyone says their mother is crazy but mine definitely has something wrong. A lot of mental health issues run on her side of the family one of her siblings is in and out of asylums and my grandmother's sisters had problems too. But my mom is very manipulative and she has a good job and a good education so it's difficult to convince someone that she is crazy. She's been ridiculously abusive. If you watch those movies like American Crime and all that thats literally what she is like it's absolute evil. I don't know what to do. She pulled me out of school mu junior year and now I"m stuck. I'm a "drop out" and I didn't want to be. She told me I needed to be taught by her but she is never home. Now I"m not finished school and I don't know what to do. I don't know what I can do or where I can go. I'm 18 now and I feel trapped. I can't just leave I have no money and no degree or anything. I wanted to become a doctor that was always my dream and now it feels like my entire life is ruined and I can't do anything about it. Who can I turn to? I'm embarassed to really tell anyone what happens in our house and what has happened to me but I need to do something. I called the cops on her once years ago and they tried to say I needed to listen to my mom and then move out and they completely disregarded everything I told them now I never want to tell anyone whats happened to me it feels like trying to get help was a mistake

I am a white person adopted by a korean man, and whenever we go out, people ask if I am korean, and I just smile, and wait for them to make their own choice. I don t agree or disagree, I really love my father and his culture, please only appropriate answers.

Right now in my life I have a very important decision and I have been procrastinating on it for quite some time now and I really just need help. I know I have to choose for my self but it is really hard. The choice I have is to move in with my mom and attend a art school with most of my friends from my old school and I feel I would be happier at the school and at my moms or I could stay with my dad and go to a "normal high school". Not only am I worried about college acceptance if I go to an art school and try and get some kind of science major in college. I m also really sad. I feel really Shitty leaving my dad like I m Betraying him and k can tell he is really sad about it to. I just really don t want to **** up are relationship and him hate me or disown me. I just really need some help and guidance right now. (And yes I have talked to friends and they tell me to move to there school, and I have also talked to my Other family but they aren t much help it seems what ever side of the family they are on they side with) thanks a lot for reading and I really appreciate the answers if you have any questions please ask away!

If so explain why you plan to become a stay at home mom.

So basically I have always noticed that he always acts normal when nobody bothers him, but when I try to talk to him, he tells me that he doesn't have time. And I don't think he cares about me emotionally or physically. Basically he would beat me or my sister up for interrupting conversations and go like really crazy. And he expects me and my sister to always help me to stuff. When we don't do it right, he gets super angry and yells and stuff. He calls me mental and stuff, and he comes and beats me up at night, just because he thought that I reset his bedroom clock. But clearly I didn't.

So today my Dads friend called my cell and asked if he was there. He wasnt so, when he got home, I gave him the message. He was like "Why did he call you then? How irresponsible". I told him that he should be glad that atleast one person calls his son. He started yelling at me like you shouldnt be saying that to me. So I just nodded my head and left. He comes again to the sofa and starts cussing me off again, saying its not over. He gets my Mom involved and asks her if she wants to add anything. He usually does this to me, but today i felt belittled for no reason. Even after I went upstairs, I can hear him yelling to my Mom how stupid I am. Am I over reacting or is this considered abuse?

I have wanted one since I was little. My parents say i will get bored with it and I won t take care of it. They always complain about me not taking care of my dog and fish but overtime i try to feed them or clean their cage they always tell me they want to do it and I m not aloud to. Please help me out and no rude comments please!

I moved from New Mexico to New York. A hug change. I love it in NY but miss my family so much. I travel every 4-6 months but I feel like I need them more and more. However I really disliked living in NM and was not happy there with my day to day life. I don't know what I should do? They said family is most important and I agree but not sure if I want to unhappy with the place I live.

I'm a 16 year old girl, and my brother is 12. My brother HATES me and refuses to talk to me or do anything together. It's really sad, and I can't stop stressing over it. I try really hard to be friends with him, but my efforts seem to be wasted, as he just ignores me. I was just wondering if this is normal and if it will (hopefully) get better over time.

I don't like pain, I get too anxious to think about getting two impacted ones with just shots. I will either have to get the gas or get put out based on my anxiety. Am I overreacting? I'm 22. Meant am I crazy? I have never had any extractions in my life.

I am 16, and i have two other brothers one 8 and one 17 and a sister who is 18. My mom always treats them better than me, just little things but it all adds up and i feel left out. But i don't let it get to me even though it hurts a little bit inside. Me and my older bro are close and he even noticed that his mom favors him over me. Im not trying to sound big headed but academically i'm the strongest in the family, i average A's most time, and for my siblings thats rare. I'm really good at soccer and work out and i have 6 pack, iv always had girlfriends since i was 14 and my brother never really did and i'm quite popular at school, mainly because i'm the best at soccer in the whole school, and i hope to make it pro one day. I was thinking maybe because i'm doing these certain things and achieving so much, and my moms kids are not as much as me..... maybe that's the reason why she dislikes me. She doesn't make it obvious she dislikes me but i can tell. Whenever i achieve something she doesn't act like it was as big as a deal as it is, but when my siblings do we would all go out and she would treat us all to a big meal to celebrate. I don't know what to think anymore? whats going on. Btw this is only my mom, my dad treats all of us equally even though i am the adopted one, and i have no problem with him at all. do you think im right or am i just being paranoid. thanks

I am a big fan of our local sports team. I go to every game I can but I can afford only the cheapest seats. One day at a game, I heard someone say "Hello Ann". I turned around and it was John, my sister's ex husband. We talked briefly and he invited him to join him in his luxury box and I gladly accepted. I had never been a luxury box but they are GREAT. I really enjoyed the game a lot more from his box. He told me that any time I was at a game to come by his box and join him in watching the game. I did and each time I had a great time at the game. He had refreshments brought to his luxury box and we just talked. I had a wonderful time. He was the nicest person ever, very polite and never hit on me. We never talked about my sister, his ex. Sometimes his friends would join us in his box. They were all very nice to me and this just made it more fun. I have never told my sister about this so as not to cause her and me any problems. I don't know many details about their divorce. She never says anything bad about him at family gatherings. Should I tell her or is it none of her business as they are no longer married? Please tell me what I should do. Thanks.

Ww went to one of my moms old freinds houses and she had clothing for my mom and me. In the mix was a bullet for my valentine t sgirt i took it now she wont ler me wear it cause i 'know nothing about them' but i love then

My sisters husband Joe works at the same place I do. He was getting behind on a project he was working on and he ask me to help him. I said sure and I worked with him during my lunch and sometimes after work. He was afraid he would loose his job if he did not get his project done on time. It was a struggle but we got the project completed on time. I got an email from my sister that said "I hope you remember all the help Joe gave you at work and all the time he spent with you so you could keep your job". My first reaction was that I should take that email to Joe and tell him to tell my sister the truth about who helped who. However on more thought I didn't do that. I thought why start a family fight when it can be avoided. If Joe wants to keep the truth from his wife, I will not interfere. However when Joe needs help again (which he will) I am going to be not available. Please tell me if you think I made the right decision. How should I handled this situation? THANKS

I'm thirteen (my B-day's in july) and the older I get, the more I feel like this isn't normal. My mom supports my cousin with EVERY thing she does. She compares my brother and I to her all the time. She wont even let me walk around the corner to get a book that she didn't know I've been asking for, for a month yet she let my cousin go right before me. (literally like three minutes before I asked) Not only that but she always has something to say about the way I look or my clothes. I'm insecure and have social anxiety and I don't want to just blame it on her if there's a chance that its normal. I just don't feel like it is. Advice?

Recently my dad who has been in and out prison my entire life sent me a birthday card from prison. I told my mom that she should've just ripped it up and she replied back by saying that I shouldn't be so evil. Am I wrong for feeling the way I do towards a person who was never really been there for me?

He's 34. I'm 31. He gets very intense when he feels I am "not listening" but the truth is "I don't understand". He then will grab me in ways that hurt. We are both males. He grabs my arms, grips them hard, and twists them to get me to do what he is trying to say/want and lambasts me when I go to my mom who is my confidant and mediator. "Get away from mom, Calm down" when he should be the one calming down. His voice also gets intense when he grabs me. It depends who my brother is around though. I observe him with others though, he is not that way at all with other people, Mom, Dad, never physical anyway. Just with me and he tells me to calm down. How can I handle this? I tell him "you're hurting me, you're hurting me, be nice, be nice" and he continues with it all anyway. This makes me very reluctant to see him when we are in the same state. Am I right in saying this is not right?????? It really angers me and scares me and I don't want it to go on any longer. He'll also pinch, prod, sometimes. He says, "I'm not going to stop because you won't listen if I'm kind." I make more mistakes trying to impress him but he just blasts me for making the mistakes. He expects me to be perfect and understand what he is saying, but I'm so tense when he raises his voice and I can't think of what he is trying to say. Then he just gets even more mad and more grippy and more hurtful. Unfortunately his wife wants nothing to do with this stuff but he's not an easy person to talk to. I've written to

I know she's been through a lot but still she always lets her anger out on me. Everything she says she sounds like she wants to kill me . She's always talking about me dying . " i hope u die of cancer" i hope u get so fat u die" etc... Im over weight but defienitly not as much as some people . 5'8 200 pounds 14.5years old male . Today we had a really bad arguement. And i said some mean things like This is why u lost all ur friends, u need to go to a mental hospital ur always angry. And she told me the day i was born her life was cursed and she wants me to die and other stuff. This honestly wasnt a surprise as she loves my sister a lot more. Why the hell is she so mean

My parents think im a burden and they already suggested for me to either go to the united states( because im living in Hong Kong) Because i have two relatives that are husband and wife, they dont have a child so when i was little they wanted me but my parents didnt want me to go to the states but now they do.. OR stay with my parents and continue being a burden. I've really tried changing my mindset about my daily routines. In school , im actually slightly bit higher than mediocre but my parents still get super angry with me, they would always shout at me. the thing is that My parents compare me to my little sister who is extremely smart, responsible and fit unlike me who is not even good at anything. It might benefit my parents if i go to the states, because my dad always say that he might have a heart attack because he always gets angry at me... Im seriously thinking about this

I've never bonded with anyone nor feel attached.. My dad used to love another women before marriage(arranged), but they broke up because the girl used to be a escort.. They ran a store and worked everyday, I am glad for food and shelter. But my parents are emotionally unavailable and I was emotionally and sexually abused by caretakers. Now I lived at home due to anxiety/depression and can't really support myself yet.. But they think I am just lazy and wants them to take care of me the rest of my life. Also they expects me to be grateful and respectful because they raised me.. But I feel resentment and feel like they deserve nothing for their mistakes.

So in December 2016 I plan to move to NY with my boyfriend. I currently live with my dad. (who is abusive and a narcissist) Living with him is comparable to living in hell. I have NO type of control of my life, I get treated like a child and I can't take the years of abuse anymore. My dad bought me a car and the title and insurance are under his name. Can I take the car with me to NY and get arrested? Or in trouble? I plan on getting a restraining order against my dad because I know for a fact he will try to come after me. My father is one to pretend that he's the perfect man, yet he has been emotionally and physically abusing me. DCF has been involved multiple times and also the police; those times that they have shown up my dad COMPLETELY lied to the police when something serious happened, saying that I smoke weed and it makes me angry and out of control and that I have personality issues when I smoke (WHICH IS NOT TRUE) The officer believed my father and things in my house got even more worse for me. My dad has the tendency to persuade people into believing him though he isn't telling the truth. he has hurt me many times throughout my teen years and I can't take the abuse anymore. I NEED to move out of my house and I was wondering if taking the car would get me into even more trouble. BTW I'm 18 thank you!!!!!!!

I'm sitting with my dad now and I'm trying to tell him that I think I am depressed. We were sitting together earlier and I said his name and planned to just tell him outright but I froze. He seemed so worried and kept asking me what I wanted. How do I phrase it in a way that's easy to say and doesn't tell too much?

I am 20 and a professional model and graduate student. I've been hired by a reputable photographer to do an "implied nude" photoshoot. It's in the contract that any shots showing actual nudity can not be used, but the photog makes it sound like I will have to be nude on set. I've never really heard the term "implied nude" used much. I know this IS a legit photog/shoot, but I'm still confused and scared because I've never shot less than swimsuit, and I don't want to sound too naive by asking. What can I expect on set? Will I have to actually get full nude? What precisely does implied nude mean? How will I be treated on set? Sorry for all of the questions. Just new territory for me. And I can't really ask the photog because I think he think's I have more experience than I have. Also, what do I wear to a shoot like this? And down below, do I trim, shave, or leave it alone? I've never even really had a serious boyfriend, and professionally the most undressed I've done is swimsuit, so this is just kind of new for me (and nervewracking)

I have 2 Mexican families living on my street. A while back, my mom had brought home some fresh cresent rolls that needed to sit and bake, so I ended up making the entire store-sized box. Needless to say, I wasn't going to be able to eat them all by myself, so I grabbed a plate and took some to a few neighbors, including the Mexican family on the corner. When I walked around to the front yard, I was shocked and disturbed to see their 4-year old son running around completely naked with their two older daughters, who were in bathing suits. This morning, I heard shouting from the yard of my immediate neighbor, who is Mexican as well, with his sister, girlfriend, cousin, and nephews. Assuming their dog had gotten out, I looked out the window, and my eyes were suddenly met with "big boy undies". The 5 year old was running around the backyard wearing nothing but a shirt and underwear. I haven't lived near Mexican families before, just out of chance, so this is very disturbing to me. I don't believe children should be running around nude like that, especially since I know there are pedophiles in the area (I checked online when I first moved in because I'm just that paranoid). I can't help but wonder if this is just something these particular irresponsible parents (this isn't the only irresponsible thing they've done) are guilty of, or if this is common for most Mexican families, and why?

Everyone including mothers is welcome to answer here on if they believe that some mothers who really want to be stay at home moms are working not because they are pressured from family members and friends to work. Because they believe that if a woman doesn't work that she's lazy which is far from the truth. A stay at home mom is a career.

I'm 23. I have a boyfriend that i have been dating for a few months. My parents wanted me to see him only 3 times a week. They get mad if I hang out with him every day. Saturdays are the only days that we have to spend the day together. My parents get mad because they say spending the whole day together is bad and tried to get me to spend only a few hours with him. my curvfew is 9pm, if im not home by 9 they start texing me to see where I'm at. My boyfrined and I want to travel to near by places but my parents get mad and wouldn't let me. Every time I asked it would lead to an argument. I tried multiple times to talk to them and explain to them how I felt about them being strict but nothing would ever change. So finally i decided to move with my boyfriend and now my whole family is mad at me and my sister says my mom is sad. I feel guilty for doing it but I thoght it was the right decision. Was is wrong of me to move out? Does this make me a bad daughter?

I just want to get my life together but I seem to can't I am a 21 year old female who lives with mom still and not once I lived in my own place when I wen't to take my permit test I couldn't read the eye vision test so I have to go to the eye doctor don't know when that will happen. I have social security money but I feel like I don't earn it, I just want to live by myself because I can't stand living with my mom most of the time I love her but she always has to do things her way sometimes she drives me nuts. My brother lives with us who is 27 I can't stand live with him either I also have to share my bathroom with him. I'm really thinking about just making a goodbye video then die I can't go to counseling because my mom doesn't need to know how depressed I truely am she would have to drive me there every time.

Im think my parents hate me . when i was about 6 i got tookin away from my parents andand and so did my sister and brother lived with my grandma and they were kinda mean to me && talked bad about my mom and mentally abused me and sometimes hit me everynight i remember i used to wish i can live with my parents agian well when i turned 12 me and my brother and sister got too but it wasnt what i expected it to be they do meth and sometimes my dad hits my mom and my dad is mean to us we have a 4 year old sister and a 10 year old sister we used to live in a big house but my dad stoped going to work we moved tree times in a year and now were down to a 2 bedroom apartment my 13 year old sister now lives with my grandma agian and im 17 my brother 16 and we live with our parents sometimes me && my mom get in arguments and one time she told me her too oldest ruin her life and she hates us to go live back with my grandma and it really hurts me when she says that because i love my mom and my little sisters to death and i just cant believe thats what she things of me i sometimes get flash backs of what me and my 2 others siblings went through and i just get soo sad to the point i wanna kill myself all i ever wanted was a happy family . but it seems like im not wanted any where i cant stop this feeling of not being wanted or loved

if you know me im generally quite a loud person or if i have a point to make(despite always thinking it over thoroughly before i state it and my face goes red and i am reasonably quiet if its in class) but if someone talks to me or asks e a question in class im either really quiet, say very littlw or avoid speaking completely just nodding my head. and its not that i dont want to speak its just my mouth and doesnt seem to want me to and i make a fool of myslef. Evwn with freinds ive known for a while if they go off to play or something without me i find it really hard to fit into it after. evem answering the register has become difficult. ive always been like this really. unless im having a strong emotion such as anger or being hyper i feel like i cant talk no matter how hard i want to. my freinds tell me to just try but i just cant seem to. i do it with my step mum and dad sit in my room and if they talk answer minimally and smile. once in class miss was telling me off and i couldnt stop laughing for a straight minute while telling myself off but i couldnt stop. wtf is wrong with me.

Basically it's a disco party in crown casino. Me and my mum want to go but since I'm only 16 I don't think i can go through the doors. Do you think they'll let if I'm with my mum?

Hey. My name is Paul and I am 13. It's pretty obvious that my mom doesn't want me. She constantly says "F*ck you" to me and calls me stupid. I have a speech problem and she has made fun of me for it. She has said "You are not my son" and, "You're an animal" She has said "I hate you" countless times, and last night she even said, "I don't want you" and, "I don't want anything to do with you" and, "I don't want a relationship with you". Like I said about my speech problem, I get bullied 1-2 times per day. It's a good day if I don't get bullied. (Which is rare) sometimes it's just a little mock, and sometimes it's someone harassing me everyday about it. But sometimes it's people who I thought were my friend that backstabb me. That only happens about every 2-3 weeks though. Getting back on topic, my mom also said she doesn't care if I get bullied or not and that's where I cried myself to sleep last night. Now here I am, on this morning, where I made a yahoo account just for this. If you could please give me advice it would really help me.

I know this sounds silly but this is a serious question. I graduated from college. I've despised my birth name since I was a child. It feels wrong for me and I feel so disgusted by it that I dread introductions. Having to live with a name I hate so much has become a burden and I just want to be rid of it. I've tried to accept it but I just cringe with disgust when I see that last name written down. I never felt it was "right" that women are expected to change our names upon marriage, and it seemed offensive to me to be branded as a guy's property, like cattle. That tradition always offended me. I hate the idea of society telling me what to do; I believe in freedom. However, I am so desperate to get rid of this name I hate. I don't have marriage in my near future and may never get married but I can't stand this name. How weird would it be if I could pay some guy to marry me just so I could get his name and then get a divorce? How much money would I have to pay someone to make it worth it (because divorce is expensive)? Do you have to go back to your maiden name when you divorce? I am desperate. I'm willing to accept the consequences. As far as having a different name on my college transcripts, wouldn't that be an issue if a person got married and took their husband or wife's surname? If I were a man, and I got married I would gladly take my wife's last name. It would be a get out of jail free card.

She doesn't use a stick or anything. She just slaps my bare butt real hard

She and my siblings do not see them other then maybe once every year or every other year at a wedding or funeral. So am I in danger of being lumped into being thought of as an outsider since I am her kid even though I reach out a lot more then her and my two siblings? I see them several times a year so a lot more then my mother and siblings and almost always go when invited.

My mother has a relative she says is a narcissist and the relative has two kids. One of the kids she hates and it is the son who is now living with his Dad. The son is not perfect and so sometimes he does not reflect perfect on the mother. He is ADHD so sometimes he would cause mischief and in high school did some dumb things to impress friends. Meanwhile she loves her daughter because the daughter is the kind of kid you never have to raise your voice with. She makes the mother look perfect, posts beautiful Facebook tributes to her mother from time to time, and as a kid and even an adult does anything her mother asks. So is this normal narcissistic behavior? It is my mother's step-sister. She seems to have a huge heart as long as people reciprocate with praise. She turns on people who do not return praise.

She says it would be enabling him

Okay so im almost 16 and my parents and i were talking about getting me a car. Im a junior in high school and my brother is a freshman. My school doesn't even let you drive to school if you're not a junior or senior so he wouldn't be able to drive to school anyway. My dad said that whatever money i get he will get the same amount and we will add that price together to get me a car. But my mom said even if i do that then my brother and I would still share even though he didn't even earn any money for the car. By the time I leave for college with the car he will be able to drive but i will have the car. I dont mind dropping him off places and all but i just can't share it with him in fear he is going to crash. Should i just try to buy my own car by myself? Or should i just try to talk to them more about it?

I was gang raped this january. I recently told my parents but I mixed up the truth and said that the four guys were mystery people even though I tecnically didbt know them but they were bffs witg my bff. But I feel bad for every little thing and didnt want to rat on them...... Cause Iwould feel bad wgen they go to jail cause tgey are so young. And I kniw they raped me and tgey are scumbags but my parents would have legit ended up HURTING them. Legit. Anyways im turning 18 and idk if i should tell the truth before i turn18 then get baptised OR leave it alone since they havent asked me about it and still get baptised. I forgive myselfbut. Idk what to do. Help please.

I think my nerves are too bad to not at least get laughing gas. One girl I know had it done wide awake and she said it didn't feel right even when she was numbed up. Wtf?

It was not very good sportsmanship obviously

I know a family. It consists of a mother, father, three sons, and a daughter. The boys are all quite a lot older than the girl — they're 28, 32, and 36. The girl is 18 and her name is Morgan. Here's the thing, though. Morgan isn't actually her parent's daughter or her brother's sister. She's her oldest "brother's" daughter. She doesn't know this, though. Will got a girl pregnant when he was 17. The mother left the day after Morgan was born, and Will wasn't prepared to raise Morgan alone, so his parents adopted her and raised her as their own. They've always told Morgan that they're her biological parents and that Will is her brother. I'll admit this: Will is very good to Morgan and has always been present in her life. She's closer to Will than she is to anyone else in the family because he's always made an effort to have a solid relationship with her. She's even considering moving in with him soon, and I think he's finally planning on telling her the truth. But, still. Don't you think this is a terrible secret to keep from a child? Will could've been honest with her from day one and said, "hey, look. I'm your dad but I'm not ready to raise you, so grandma and grandpa are going to. I'll still be around, though." Instead, the entire family flat out lied to her for EIGHTEEN YEARS. I can't even imagine finding out that a man who I thought was my brother throughout my entire life had actually been my dad all along. What's your opinion? Will is Morgan's father's name (the one who she thinks is her brother.) I didn't make that clear.

Looking to take my little sister to White Post Farm next week before she goes back to school, but wondering if she's/I'm too old (11 & 19)? I've never been so just wondering if the farm is aimed at young children or if there are things to do for all ages? I know Zoos are perfect for all ages but not sure about this sort of thing. Thanks Thanks

I honestly can t stand school anymore, I ve tried to convince my parents to do online classes but they keep telling me that they had to do it and so should I. I think that is complete bs since I have an alternative and they didn t. My reasoning for why I hate school is that I don t sleep and am constantly tired, I get 2 hours of sleep on a good day. I have no friends, I just hate everyone there and want nothing to do with them and think it d be easier to be by myself, My last reason is that the school system is horrible and I have a problem tolerating it. In about a month I ll be 16 and will be able to drive, if my parents refuse to let me change I ll probably just start skipping class. Does anyone have any ideas on how to peacefully convince my parents into letting me do online classes instead of bs public school?

I start college in a week and I'm freaking out. I'm so not ready. I'm gonna be living on campus and I'm so scared. The college is an hour away from my house but I don't have a car. I took a 20K loan to go there. My dad kept telling me that I should go to a community college near my house but I said no because I didn't have a car to get there. I also wanted to give my bedroom to my brother because he doesn't have his own and if I stay he's gonna have to keep sharing a room with my dad. So if I go away so many things at home will get better and there's gonna be more space for my family. Anyways, I'm gonna miss my dad so much and think about all the times he told me a loan is not worth it. What if the experience and college suck? I'm gonna be regretting taking a loan. I don't know if I should just not go to college and stay one year at home and get a job. I'm so scared. Im so stressed I don't know what to do. Sometimes I wish I'd died so j wouldn't have to live through this. I know I sound annoying worrying about this but I need help. Thanks

My baby is 10 months old, but cries and cries over her 3 year old cousin's tablet. Its so heartbreaking to see. If her cousin puts the tablet down, my daughter will grab it, but her cousin will snatch it out her hand. This makes my daughter so sad, she looks at me to do something, but I don't know what to do. I gave in and ordered my daughter one, but while I'm waiting for it to be delivered, what should I do about this situation in the mean time? Someone suggested that I tell her cousin to wait until my baby is sleep before she plays with it. My daughter only take maybe two 15 minutes during the day, so I'm not sure if this is a good idea. Should I just tell he cousin that she cant play with her tablet at all when she is over my house? btw she's at my house quite often because her grandmother (my boyfriend's mother) is living with us for awhile, and she babysits her. my boyfriend and his mother think I should just let my baby cry, but I don't think its fair for my baby to have to watch her cousin play the tablet and be sad

So my younger brother has extreme anger issues that he goes to therapy for but it obviously doesn t work. If I ask him something he gets very offended and starts cussing at me and getting worked up for no reason so I just leave. If II ask him to do something he gets mad and starts screaming and calls me a "slut" "whore" "*****" and that he wants to kill me. There have been times where he has come at me and hurt me in the past. These days he tries to come at me but my parents stop him. Mind you I m a small 19 year old girl thats under 100 pounds and my brother is this really big 15 going on 16 boy that s over 200 pounds. So if he actually attacked me he could really hurt me. The shitty part is my dad is always on his side and says I shouldn t say this or that but honestly those shouldn t be the reasons as to why he wants to hurt me! Its already hard on me enough because I have depression and anxiety what should I do?
