Family: Question: I found a note in my late parents house from my brother that said "I hate Pete". He was 8 when he wrote it (1965). Should I fear he hated me?

Question: I found a note in my late parents house from my brother that said "I hate Pete". He was 8 when he wrote it (1965). Should I fear he hated me?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:52 PM PST

The brother died last year so I can't ask him. We got along well but this note said "I hate Pete" though he was seven when he wrote it. I was 9 at the time and probably had teased him about something or bitten him.

Question: How can men watch porn after having daughters?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:51 PM PST

My dad has no idea how to hide that he watches porn. My mom has showed him and everything but nope. I had to borrow his phone because mine was broken the othere day. I went into Google to search something. He left a porn video up. Worst part it was teen does bla bla. I was a teenager last year omg. How can you watch stuff like this after having a daughter? Do the girls in the videos ever make them think, Oh my daughter has that same eye color or something as that girl going at it? That could be your daughter in that video.

Question: My aunt refused to have one of her kids at Christmas this past year because the girl lied about her job. Was this too harsh?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:50 PM PST

The girl said she still worked as a secretary for the army but she had actually quit her job. My aunt has a long history of resenting that this daughter can't be like the other daughter who is wonderful. I think my cousin only lied because she feared her mother's reaction.

Question: My uncle keeps flipping out if my Mom's kids can do something his kids can't. What is it with the jealousy?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:48 PM PST

Like my mother had to ask me not to come to her birthday party because her brother was mad I was invited and not his kids. We are all adults but the "kids generation". Why would an adult have this kind of jealousy? My mother's sister we seldom see but she is this way also. Her other 2 brothers are not but they don't have kids and one is a priest.

Question: Help , my parents get on my nerves.?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:47 PM PST

I am a 27 year old woman who finally has her own place. I work in senior management and work 10 hour days. I work in hinesville, ga and live in savannah, ga so it is an hour commute. When I get home I am tired. Every day I am off my parents call me to run errands. My mom does not drive and my dad has a car and I feel can run the majority of these errands but doesn't . My mom is sickly and has done so much for me so anything I can do for her I do it. But it is getting on my nerves cuz on my off day I want to enjoy my day off. How do I address the situation?

Question: My father saw me naked.?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:47 PM PST

I'm ashamed, my name is Larissa, I'm 16 years old.

Question: Since my sister is an adult bully is it unlikely she will ever change?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:43 PM PST

Question: How do I get my mother to stop emotionally abusing me as a way of getting revenge on my father she divorced?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:43 PM PST

She abuses me (emotionally, not physically) in order to get revenge on him. I am an adult but have to see her some or my grandparents on my Mom's side won't be able to see me.

Question: My 2 years old sister put my giant african millipede in her mouth and chewed him, can I save him?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:36 PM PST

This happened like 30 minutes ago and my parents will not return home in 12 hours and I don't know what to do. I played with my millipede for a while but then wanted a snack so I left him on the floor for a few seconds, but when I returned I saw my stupid, ugly sister eating him. I put my millipede out of her mouth and tried to see if he's moving, but he hasn't moved since I put him out. He has openings on his body and there's red all over him and over my dumb sister's mouth, it doesn't look like blood though, insects can't bleed. She ran away in her room after I yelled at her. I'm crying right now, I haven't felt so attached to anyone as I felt attached to him. Does this mean he's dead? I don't know what to do. The nearest vet to where I live is like 2 kilometers away and I don't have a bike or anything like that anymore. My parents are far away right now so I can't call them. I hope there's something I can do to save him. Sorry if my grammar's bad because my eyes are blurry because of how much I'm crying right now.

Question: My father tells me he's going to beat me to death!?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:21 PM PST

So...I catch this virus that lasted for a week, and my dad forces me to get out of bed and stop being a lazy azz, and then said that if I truly am this sick, he is going to send to me to the ER where they do blood tests on me and then told me if they come back negative then he is going to beat me to death. By the way, I'm under 18. This isn't the first time he's given me a death threat actually. I'm beginning to hate this idiot more than I thought I would.

Question: How can I find my uncle? We just learned that his brother has a terminal illness.?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:10 PM PST

We know the residence he was at a year ago, but he's moved somewhere (probably a nursing home or care center). The care center will not tell us where he was discharged to. How would you suggest finding him soon? Do any of these "people finder" websites actually work? Thanks!

Question: I have a hard time being affectionate?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 01:02 PM PST

It's extremely uncomfortable for me to be all caring and affectionate to some especially my parents my dad and I used to hate each other and he would verbally and physically abuse me at times but as I got older(now 19) he became less strict and rarely yells at me I notice he even try to please me at time and makes me dinner every night. For some reason my wall is still up I don't have meaningful talks with him or even greet him or call my dad. As for my mom she's always been the one supporting me financially and care for me. But she constantly complains and has really ignorant thinking. My mom always speaks her mind and always say things she shouldn't. I care about her a lot and I really want to repay her one day. But I cannot be affectionate with her say things like " I love you" or even a "thank you" sometimes she would try to hug me and be all cutesy but it makes me extremely uncomfortable and wants to cringe. This is mainly towards my family but I notice I can be like this with friends sometimes too. My guess is that I didn't have much affection when I was little from my parents they would never hug me or cheer me on so now I've put this awkward wall up but I really want to break through this just don't know how.... anyone else have this problem

Question: Somebody please help me, I m about to give up? (READ DETAILS)?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 12:59 PM PST

So, how do I start this. Ever since my parents found out I self-harm (not saying the reason why). My parents have been acting like total bitches to each other (they ve always been actually). They fight nonstop, my dad is constantly blaming my mom about it, when it is my fault. He lied to my doctors and family members that my mom is the cause of the self-harm, which it isn t. I love her, but my dad is just always blaming her. Also, when I was setting up the wifi on his phone at the hospital, I saw a dating website he was on. I m scared, what do I do. I fear for my siblings and my mom. My dad is yelling a lot and it scares me and I can t stand up to him, so my mom is the one who is suffering the most. Please, please help. I ll take any advice. I m only 13 so I can t really do anything about the situation. I know it s stupid, I know it s my fault. But please help me

Question: My dog is my son and my other two dogs are my pets. Is this okay?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 12:44 PM PST

I feel a human son would reject me and pick on me like the brats my brothers were. However, a dog never rejects me. I have one that is my son and then two that are not people to me but just pets my son (their species) can play with. Is this okay and if my dog dies how do I survive as I refuse to admit it but likely I will outlive my son and don't know I can go on living.

Question: My brother is an alcoholic and everyone blames me because I didn't spend a lot of time with him when our Dad died. Am I at fault?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 12:07 PM PST

I am 14 years older and I was 24 when our Dad died and my brother was 10. My brother is now 40 and I am 54. Our Dad's death was also alcohol related. Everyone says I am at fault for my brother's drinking because I didn't step up and become his Dad.

It s so embarrassing now that I m older I can t really have company and when I do they sleep on the couch 🙄 I just want my own room.

Question: How to deal with stress from my mother?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 11:01 AM PST

Question: I learned that my great-uncle tried to drown a kid as a joke one time. Was this okay in the old days (this was the 1960's)?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 10:26 AM PST

He wasn't going to kill him but just tried to drown him as a joke. He was the same great-uncle who called his own kids "idiots" and "stupid" along with his wife. So he is no role model nor was his wife (both have died in past 10 years and the widow last October). The kid he tried to drown but only as a joke was his sister's son who was special ed (had severe learning disabilities)

Question: My Dad is an alcoholic and he is mad at me today that I didn't come hang out with him. How do I make up?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 10:23 AM PST

He was drunk and I didn't want to listen as he calls my Mom the C word. My mother is at fault for a lot of the problems but she is still my mother and I'd never use that word. How do I stop feeling bad and how do I make up? I didn't go over since he was drunk and in his texts he was cursing left and right.

Question: If my grandma and her dad are cousins, what does that make us?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 10:17 AM PST

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 09:17 AM PST

My little sister is friends with this Indian ***** that I HATE. I've done all I can to block her from my sister but nothing seems to work. You have no ideas how much hate I have for this Indian girl. She is my sisters best friend and they always snapchat, text and FaceTime together. Literally I have no idea why my sister is even hanging out with her. She's fat, disgusting and hideous. So today, I took my sister out to Walmart and I looked like trash. I had no makeup on, wearing sweats, and I have pimples all over my face. Well, my sister decided to take a picture of me while I was about to sneeze. The picture looked like I was about to pick my nose and I have five double chins and I was having a seizure. My sister took that pic and sent it to her friend through snapchat. Her friend opened it and screenshot it. Now I am freaking out. I KNOW That her friend will send that picture to ppl at my school. I yelled st my sister and I took her phone and deleted her snapchat. She tried to lie to me that it was on accident but I'm not stupid like her. I'm planning on throwing away all my sister makeup when I go home tonight and starting on Monday, I will not allow her to ride in my car to school. She's going to wake up an hour early and ride the school bus. And she's going to ride the bus home too. I swear I don't know what to do. I'm talking to this guy rn and I'm scared my sisters friend will send that picture to him!!

Question: My mother screams and breaks things in our apartment?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 08:49 AM PST

Okay so my mom has been emotionally and physically abusive for as long as I can remember. I've been putting up with it but recently I don't know what to do. I'm 17 and we just moved into a new apartment. It's been one month and my mother has already gotten 2 noise complaints (from her constantly screaming insults at me) and has broken my door, her door, the bathroom door, and punched a hole into the wall. I'm so stressed out because people i go to school with live in the same building and hear EVERYTHING. It's embarassing and I'm so tired of it. What can I do? What is the legal age to move out in NYC? I want to move on from this chapter in my life badly

Question: My family steals my money?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 08:37 AM PST

So my parents gave me 2 five hundred dollar notes in an envelope for chinese new year. (Parents gave me and my two brothers the same amount). I put it under my pillow and left to my dorm. After a month I came back and I only saw one 500- dollar note in the envelop. I asked my whole family if anyone took my money and no one admitted. My dad even said he only put one 500 note in the envelope. The thing is, I remember so vividly how shocked I was when I saw two 500 notes and I even told my bf about it. I am thinking it might be my youngest brother because once, he took $1000 form parents in the name of lending me a loan for dorm fee. I returned him 1100 thinking the money was his, then he didn't return the money to parents and told parents that I did NOT return him (like a jerk). He's super stingy and kind of cunning. Now I just can't stop doubting him because of his record. It's not about the money, it's about I don't feel safe with my properties at home, and it's about I feel that I can't trust him anymore because he's so money-oriented that he forgot the morals. What should I do?

Question: Is this generally considered child abuse in every culture?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 08:16 AM PST

When I was a little boy ( very little ) , I used to sleep with my father. I am not sure why. While we used to sleep , he used to sleep with no shirt on and he would touch my bum with his hands . He would keep his hands there for long periods. I didn't think anything of it because I was not at an age where I could comprehend what the word sex meant. I grew up having a tumultuous life. I am unmarried 34 now by the way. I have had very promiscuous life and a stormy relationship with my family. He never touched my genitals though. Can his behavior be classified under sexual abuse of a child? Update: My dad would put his hands inside my drawers and keep it there. As a child I enjoyed it because I liked the warm feeling. But as I grew up it painted a dark picture of sex for me.

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 05:45 AM PST

I want to be loyal but don't want to listen to him call my mother the C word all day. Don't get me wrong, my mother was bad to him, but she is my Mom so it is awkward to hear profanity all day about her. I am 21 so can do as I wish but fear not being loyal to my Dad. I don't mind cutting down how my mother treated him but not ranting on her all day.

Question: On a family tree should I mark the following things?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 05:32 AM PST

My Mom is asking me to help her make one. Do I mark 1. Who was estranged from who among branches of the family. 2. For divorces do I state why the couple divorced and who was at fault. For example, "Uncle George banged up a lady from work and got her pregnant. It was his 2nd known extramarital affair so his wife filed for divorce". 3. Do I mark rumors not proven. For example, "great-great-great grandfather is rumored to have killed a dozen innocent people of color in the Civil War fighting for the south". 4. Who was an alcoholic and who was not. She said her Dad was not the only alcoholic in the family. 5. Method of suicide for my Mom's cousin who blew his fùcking brains out with a gun in 1998. Or a 3rd cousin who killed himself as a teen 2 years ago (not sure how). 6. Do I include the great-uncle I only met once who allegedly molested his daughter causing her to become a heroin addict and causing her death in 1977 (mother was scared for me to be around him). 7. Do I include when people lost their virginity and if with their spouse, future spouse, or someone else? 8. Do I mark "Homo" next to the names of all homosexual family members (at least 4). 9. Do I say "retard" next to the cause of death for the child who died of developmental disabilities combined with Sanfilppo syndrome. 10 And lastly do I use profanity like "3rd cousin once removed Carol was fùcking hot" or "Diane was a real ****** when on her period"

Since I was little I always gotten a uncomfortable/dark vibe from her, she was never really in my life like that and a few years ago she gave me lots of problems and it lasted for years and at one point my parents were having problems, before I was perfectly fine and outta the blue got hit with feeling disconnected from everything and felt I didn't know my surrounding. My dad became like a different person that me, my grandmother's, grandfather, mom, and others said that they didn't even know who my dad was, when looking into his eyes it was like looking into someone else almost like evil and my mom one claim day call a man from church and we begin praying and the vibs in the room got ugly and then stuff kept happening like if the "evil" one didn't want us to pray then this man says ( now I am going to ask who is doing harm on the family, please lord give us a sign) right after my aunt pops up on the phone she hasn't call in years. Now my uncle was told before what happen to me that her son that's evil like his mother had a lot of hate for my uncle and was throwing him bad, I dream of my aunt and her son always in black even my mother dreams the same dreams and they always have black on, now my aunt came out of rehab and ever since she's out and now living by me I got the disconnecting feeling again, I was fine.

Question: Am I being abused by my room mate?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 05:23 AM PST

Me and my room mate dated years ago and years later he offered to help me when my husband became abusive to me. So I moved back to my home town and became his room mate. He began to try to have s..x with me but I always refuse because we both agreed we would just be friends and go half on the bills. I got so sick of his treatment towards me I was packing my bags to prepare to leave and he kicked my bags down and he also threw a bag of trash on my bedroom floor. He was mad at me because I was home all day but I forgot to clean the kitchen. He aggressively told me to help clean but he just watched me clean the living room last night. I don't have real friends just friends I made on ig or EP. So no one can save me. My husband told me to come back home but I left because he punched me and choked me. Then now my room mate calls me names and he beat me up. The evil part is he woke me up came in my room and told me to clean up the whole place and he will get our phones back on and give me 20$. I tried to reach out to my online friends but they either didn't respond or didn't help. I don't have any other family I don't have a mom or dad in my life. Or siblings.

Question: My parents messed up my head and my life is so ****** up. What do I do?

Question: What would you do?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 03:58 AM PST

If you had a 10 year old daughter who told you that she wanted to kill herself. What would you do? I'm asking because my friend's daughter said this to her and she just laughed. I just wanted to add that the girl was crying and screaming. She did not just simply say 'I want to die' as if it was nothing.

Question: I want to start caring about my parents more.?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 02:18 AM PST

Hello, I have a big problem, and it's hurting me and my parents. I'm selfish. The thing is, is that I've gotten into trouble so many times at school and outside of school with the law (I'm not gonna specify for what). For some reason I always forget what people tell me, and because of that my parents say I don't listen. They spend lots of money on me, for therapy, workouts, etc. My problem is that my parents say I don't care, which is true, I'm just afraid to admit it. I keep having thoughts of wanting to have things, and they know that. I'm also a heavy Instagram user that's only in it for the fame. I'm tired of being selfish and not caring, so don't comment that I'm a jerk, because if I were, I wouldn't be asking this. I just want to know how to listen better and how to show that I care more, and above all else, stop getting into trouble (I will say that I have anger issues, and seeing a doctor along with medication isn't helping). P.S. I give in to peer pressure a lot as well. i have thoughts of having things my way. im 17, been messing up since 14, well the major problems. Please don't judge my age, I just want to know how to stop.

Question: Am I selfish for doing this?

Posted: 18 Feb 2017 12:11 AM PST

My cat, which has been with me since I was 3 1/2 years old, died last November, which left me heartbroken and sent me into depression. My mother suggested that we got a new cat exactly 15 days after her death. I shut down the whole idea and chewed her out for being unconsiderate. She admitted it was a dumb idea but later she again offered to get a new cat for Christmas and again I said no but that didn't stop her from complaining about how she wanted a new cat even though there is a cat in the house (her husband's cat) and has a Dalmatian of her own (and she bought it knowing I hate dogs). In the first days of February my mother sent me to get groceries and after that I went home to find my mother with a kitten. I was furious and I felt my depression coming back and started crying for my lost cat as I wasn't yet ready for another cat. My mother ignored me, just like she has done my whole life. Again, I got mad at my mother and made it clear I wanted that kitten out of the house. Again I got ignored. I decided then that that was it. I had enough of my mother's sh*t. She only thinks about herself and what she needs and wants and always wants to be the center of attention and has threatened with putting me in a "home" for handicapped people (I have a mental disability for I'm high functioning) if I caused her problems with her new husband (which I never did), called me horrible names and keeps me locked up in the apartment all day then she has the nerve to complain about how I'm "wasting away my life". So out of spite for her I decided to not have dinner with her and her husband anymore and don't waste a chance to call her out on her cr*p or calling her kitten names (although I would NEVER do anything to hurt it). This pisses her off but I don't care. Oh, and she doesn't even take care of the kitten like she should since in the first month of having it my mother almost put it in the washing machine, locked it outside our apartment when she went out (I was able to find it because I heard our neighbors cooing over it) and overall doesn't pay it the attention it needs. Am I selfish for thinking like this?.

Question: I'm hard for me to be affectionate?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 11:13 PM PST

It's extremely uncomfortable for me to be all caring and affectionate to some especially my parents my dad and I used to hate each other and he would verbally and physically abuse me at times but as I got older(now 19) he became less strict and rarely yells at me I notice he even try to please me at time and makes me dinner every night. For some reason my wall is still up I don't have meaningful talks with him or even greet him or call my dad. As for my mom she's always been the one supporting me financially and care for me. But she constantly complains and has really ignorant thinking. My mom always speaks her mind and always say things she shouldn't. I care about her a lot and I really want to repay her one day. But I cannot be affectionate with her say things like " I love you" or even a "thank you" sometimes she would try to hug me and be all cutesy but it makes me extremely uncomfortable and wants to cringe. This is mainly towards my family but I notice I can be like this with friends sometimes too. My guess is that I didn't have much affection when I was little from my parents they would never hug me or cheer me on so now I've put this awkward wall up but I really want to break through this just don't know how.... anyone else have this problem

Question: Parents: If your child wanted to skip school for a day for what they believe in, would you allow them?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 10:38 PM PST

The "protest" yesterday made me think of this. Please Note the following: If your child is in elementary, pretend they are in middle/high school. , Most teachers either dont take unexcused absent work or mark it at half credit , and finally, take their grades into mind, do you think it would hurt them to skip? Thanks for the answers! Please keep in mind that in no way do I think children should skip school for any reason. As a student, I think that it is a stupid idea, as i've seen what happens when you miss school. I asked this question to look into the minds of parents who did allow their kids to skip school, so I could see their perspective as well. Also, for those who don't know, on thursday there was an immigrant protest on thursday. People skipped work and school for the day.

Question: What should I do about my mom?Help?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 10:12 PM PST

I don't want to sound like a typical teenager ranting on about their parents but my mother is selfish.She finds illogical reasons to get mad just to feel the rush of superiority of correcting someone meaning me.She is emotionally abuse and has never encouraged me to do anything and she told me I would never amount to anything. She constantly tells me that I am the sole regret of her life. Should I just suck it up and wait or do something about it

Question: My brother can't keep his mouth shut!!?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 09:25 PM PST

Long story short....I managed to find out something huge about myself that I felt completely satisfied with. I felt like I found out a huge part of myself. Of course I'm afraid to tell my parents and the rest of my family, but The one person I felt comfortable sharing this with was my brother. But now he uses it against me and I'm sick of it. He always says ,every time I do something he dosen't like, 'I'll tell everybody your biggest secret". I feel like he is kidding until he one day he said something at dinner about me, that was very close to my secret but thank goodness they didn't get it. I had even though about forcing myself to change that part of me, just so he can't hold anything over my head. It hurts that he actually is using this secret that could change my life,as blackmail. One day I swore he was trying to get me to change my mind by saying things that made my cry and heartbroken, and rethinking my life. I just think he dosent like the path I chosen, because he talked about it a bunch of times, and every time I found a positive side...he kept bringing me down to tears. I love him but I'm just tired of him using this huge part of myself as black mail. What can I tell him or what can I do?

Question: I hate living.?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 09:14 PM PST

I just don't know what to do anymore at this point. I've come here asking just to see if the kindness of strangers would spark my will to live again. I am 17 as of October 29th, 2016. I have two younger brothers who I get into large fights with constantly. We barely ever get along. As for my mom and dad, they're loving parents. But they don't quite know how to handle how I feel. Upon hearing that I was suicidal my father called me a selfish pussy. I'm still hurt over this because I was always told that you can't decide how you feel. I'm not purposely trying to say I hate getting up in the morning. I just feel like there's nothing worth doing in my life. I've been asking for therapy for a long time. I still haven't gotten it yet, and now my parents just had another baby. With the arrival of my youngest sibling, Leila, I realize that they'll never have time to actually help me get therapy now and even less time for me to try and explain how I feel to them. I guess something that jump started how I was feeling was when my girlfriend of four years left me for someone that used to hurt her. It happened only two months ago and she began spreading rumors about me. I just.. hate everything.

Question: Should We Scare the **** Out of Our Kids?

We grow up with a lot of scary stuff, but is it good for us?

Question: Nobody respects me?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 08:30 PM PST

My parents don't even respect me or my feelings. How can anyone else respect me if not even my parents do? I want to kill myself, the feeling is so helpless.

Question: My 4-year-old is being an as*hole again, but I don't wanna hit him, I am not a violent person, what should I do?

Question: I'm gonna tell my parents I'm Bi, and I know exactly how they'll react.?

Posted: 17 Feb 2017 08:16 PM PST

They'll either be like "OK cool pass the chips" or try to be really 'understanding' and 'talk about it'. Not to convince me not to be Bi, but to show me how they're totally 'understanding'. Problem is, I wanna tell them tonight but it's late and a I want to sleep ad they're both downstairs, should I walk in and say "Hey mom, by the way I'm bisexual" or wait till one of them comes upstairs and talk to them separately like I planned.
