I am 15 year old boy and i have a brother and sister both younger in the u.s.a. My dad doesnt work he sits all day watching youtube and playing on his phone. If i talk with my siblings, he tells me to shut up and go study even though i have all a's. He never lets me watch youtube or touch any devices. He doesnt allow me to ever go outside the house even though soccer is my passion. He never takes us out and my mom can convince him. I sit and try to tell him calmly but he screams at me and tells me to shut up and go read a book. NO YOUTUBE SOCCER TV FUN ANYTHING ONLY STUDY AND READ I CAN NEVER GO OUTSIDE PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZ HELP. IM DEPRESSED

every time she comes over things go missing and my ipad disappeared yesterday when she was over and i saw her walking out with it and i confronted her and she hid it and act like she didn't know anything and my parents don't know that it's her they've called the police multiple times because they think they've been robbed but never suspect my grandma and i told them it's her and they don't believe me. i'm sick of her taking everything because i'm losing valuable stuff including cash and money in my wallet

Why is law so stupid and I can't decide for myself? My parents are forcing me to attend on RE lessons so there's no way they can help me.

When I got out of high school, I had a hard time finding a job. I finally found a job with good pay and a great boss. I consider myself the luckiest girl alive. I just adore my boss. He makes coming to work a pleasure. One day in his office I say his high school graduation picture on his wall. I told him that my mom went to the same high school. He asked what was her name in school. When I told him, he said "I knew your mom in high school. I can see were you get your good looks. She was the most beautiful girl in the school." He said my mom had been homecoming queen 4 years in a row at high school. Mom had never told me that. I wonder why? He said "I would like to see her again to catch up on old times. Why don't you let me take the two of you to lunch some time. I said "great I will arrange it". When I told my mom about this she said she did not want to see anyone she went to high school with. When I ask her why she told me she had gained 10 pounds since she was in high school and didn't feel like she looked good. I told her 10 more pounds in 20 years and after 3 kids did not change her great looks. She still looked great. 40+ year old women am I right about this? How can I convince her she is still beautiful and should join us for lunch? I think it would be good for my career to have lunch with my boss and even if it doesn't, it seems like it would be fun. Moms, please give me some help with this.

Long story hopefully short,my mom,who is now passed away from breast cancer,said that a cousin ours boyfriend accidentally touched her hand and flicked it away. Like afraid he was going to catch cancer. I saw this with my own eyes and that's what happened. Months after my mom passed away my dad asked him at the wedding shower. My mom also had bad problems with memory as well so my dad wanted to ask him for his take on it. He told my dad sorry but he doesn't remember. So now after the shower,he told my ex great uncle that he felt very threatened by my dads question. So right after that,my dad and my 2 sisters were disinvited from the wedding and were cut off from them. We live in different states so we were told to stay where we are and there wouldn't be any problems. Fast forward a few years and my great grandmother passed away. It's pathetic on how your own great uncle went out of his way and did the very best he could to not make eye contact with you. When you didn't even do anything. My dad went up to the girls mom at the funeral and she just looked at him and walked away. Made eye contact for quite a few seconds and walked away. ONE SIMPLE QUESTION WAS ASKED. What do you think? Honest answers only please. Trust me,I couldn't make this up even if I tried.

There's this girl, Allie (complete *****, lazy as ****, doesn't do anything to help) anyways she decided to try to say my grandma is a complete alcoholic and does nothing but drink, even though my grandma was kind enough to purchase a $30,000 trailer for them ($15,000 and an additional $15,000 to get it here) plus they were kind enough to work on it every day. Allie and her family was saying **** on Facebook and just an hour ago Allie posted on Facebook saying "Coming to my work ain't gonna do nothing but get you kicked out permanently 🤷🏼‍♀️😂". Allie only works as a barista and it's only one small part of an entire business. Is it possible for Allie to do that, she only has her small job because her grandpa is "head boss". The place is a casino, coffee shop, restaurant and bar but where she works at is a small place. Considering she only has her job because of her grandpa, could she get people kicked out permanently? She doesn't do her job at all, she just sits there and watches her fellow coworkers do the job she's suppose to do.

He takes my homework and hides it and wouldn't give it back until I told my grandma. He blocks the hallway, and gets mad when I don't give him the correct answer to his questions. Like yesterday he wanted to know when I was going to eat my sandwich and I said in a little bit and he got mad because my answer was too vague so I say in five minutes and he gets really mad and cornered me against the wall and demanded I give him a better answer and I them I got mad because this went on for an hour and told him to **** off. My mom took his side and grounded me from leaving my room. I ended up sneaking out and asking my grandma to pick me up bc he tried to kicked my door in bc I wouldn't answer his question the way he wanted it answered and my mom blamed me for getting woke up all the noise of him kicking down my door. BTW I was listening to music trying not respond to him. I am worried though bc my mom is mad at my grandma (my bio dads mom) My bio dad died.

My first memory of my father was him taking me to a morning school and him squeezing my hand so hard I gritted my teeth together to keep from crying. He was saying something along the lines of 'shut up or i'll give you a puck' and gritting his teeth at me and then we get to the entrance and the child minder is there and his demeanor changes completely and he smiles and says 'Good Morning Kathleen'. This would have been pretty typical in my house growing up. Before school if we weren't dressed on time, we were hit and screamed at. I generally felt terrified of my father until age about 11 or 12. Then we started standing up to him which made the frequent hitting more often. But it also meant that all the times he wanted to hit us just got built up in his anger and so there would be a particularly bad incident every couple months. These incidents would be followed by my siblings and I declaring that we wanted nothing to do with the man, followed with my mother breaking down and crying begging us to forgive him. Sometimes it would involve an exchange of money or promises to persuade us to into accepting his apologies. His apologies were never sincere. It would start with us sitting in the next room listening to our mother beg him to apologize. Him stropping in, we'd ignore him. He'd then yell or demean to demand our attention and he'd apologize and we would say OK. The cycle like that would continue every couple months. Gradually his outbursts would get worse and worse.

I told my younger brother and sister about it, and they started crying and pleading that I don't do it. I told them that I just don't wanna live anymore, my life is worthless, no woman wants me, and tbh my mom gave birth to a mistake like me. Also my brother and sister went and told my parents about it. Why would they do that? Im planning to end my life in 2 days with one gunshot wound to my head at close range.

It's that I don't get the grades she wants or whatever, She constantly tells me about how horrible, mean, and condescending I am. She obviously favours my brother I'm just don't know what to do, and I know that essentially asking here won't help, but please give me tips (I'm only 15, I can't just move out)

I live with my mom and I need to away from her. I don't have a job because nobody will hire me and I don't have anyone that will let me help them out in exchange for a place to stay. I'm at the point where I'm seriously considering hurting my mom to the point where I might be in prison for a while but I'm trying not to do that. How can I find a way to make money so I can leave or how can I find another place to stay without going to prison for doing the wrong thing?

When I mention to my sister-in-law that I was sending my niece a bracelet and necklace for her 11th birthday, she sounded pleased and said, "please check with me before sending anything because I almost regifted you what you sent her for Christmas two years ago" (until my mom reminded her the gift came from me). At the time she was nine, and I sent a Trolls lip gloss set and a matching fingernail polish set. She proceeded to tell me that it was too babyish for her at the time and that it still sits in the closet all packaged up. I sort of feel like not ever sending her anyting again and now I see why my mom always says my kids are so appreciative. Seriously, am I being too sensitive, or is that good protocol to check with someone before sending their child something so that I don't as she said, "waste my money"?

I am a thirteen year old male, taking two AP classes plus a bunch of other courses in school. It drains me often, but usually that feeling of being tired doesn't hit me until late at night. Of course, not being allowed to sleep until 9 in the evening doesn't help the matters. But without the sleep, the tiredness carries into the next day. Of course, eventually that builds up. My mom thinks that I'm sneaking onto the computer in the other room but in reality I'm just tired. When I wake up in the morning, it can take almost 4 hours to even barely wake up. My grades are currently being raised from (lowest grade) a C+. That's the lowest grade I've ever had. My mom thinks I'm just messing around in my classes when my grades drop. But it's really hard to concentrate when an algebra teacher is speaking in monotone and it's completely silent in the class. The biggest delimma, however, is that I have to wake up at 4 in the morning every single day for absolutely no reason. If I don't wake up at 4, my mom gets all mad about it and she just tells me that's being arrogant. (I don't understand how.) Even on weekends, I wake up at 4 A.M. and my mom thinks I'm just being lazy. In short, what do I do?

She bore false witness about me and said I gossip when in reality it was to deflect her own shame about being the big mouth she was. Now that she has died I am the guardian of all secrets. How do I guard them and am I wise to just take them to my grave without passing along to anyone else?

I am 16 years old All month long I have been order porns on I dish night I didn t think my dad would notice the charges. This morning I ordered 4 porns everyone was asleep while I was watching one in the living room and my stepmother caught me she was mad , she told me when she called to pay the dish bill, the bill was to high, she told me she talk to customer service and they told her that someone in the was ordering pornography movies, she said they told her the time the movies was ordered. Which I don t believe. I told her that my dad could have been my dad me, she told me that she figured it was me ordering the porno but didn't want to say anything til she had poof. She grounded me for a long time when I yelled you can't ground me she woke my dad up and he told me that she could ground me whenever I am in the wrong.

So my glasses broke and my mom never cared to go get them fixed because I have another pair but my sister needed new ones and right away they took her to get her eyes checked and got her new glasses like tf

I just feel weird that she's on my profile watching shows on my dads account. She also didn't ask me if that was okay. What are some ways I can tell her to get off without it being awkward?

My husbands family has never been nice to me. He's got 6 siblings and each one of them, and their partners make it obvious I'm not liked. As far as I know I've never done anything wrong but take their awful treatment with a smile. They live in Canada and have asked us to come there in June, I don't want to but my husband does. Just a few months ago his brother was here (in Australia) and every time I saw him he would kiss my daughter and hug my husband but just walk right passed me. My husband could be trying to make conversation with him and he just stares at his phone. But I rarely ever see them, should I go? I feel like I'd be spending so much money just to be uncomfortable for 2 weeks

I am a twenty-year old girl for as long as she can remember has ached for a mom. You know the type, the kind that asks about your day and takes care of you when your sick and knows you better than anybody else and brushes your hair and hugs you and kisses you and texts you and is always always always there. She is there when you have a had a bad day or a good day and every day in between. She is warm and kind and always knows when something is wrong. She is the woman you rebel with as a teen and the woman that will get her nails done with you and takes you out to lunch and is a friend but also knows when to be a mom. She watches movies with you and always always lets you know that she loves you. She is strong and safe and is not perfect because nobody is but she is perfect for you and that is all that matters. My mom and I were never close. She has her own issues including depression, and I respect that, but I have always seen her as a narcissist, self-centered woman only after her own gain. I know that I am 20. I know that not everybody has a Hallmark channel mother, and I need to accept that. But I also know that there is this terrible ache within me for a mom like how I described. I ache for a service, as silly as it sounds, for a mom to just spend the day with me. I don't know how to get over this feeling. I have spent evenings looking at pictures of moms hugging/ holding their daughters. I want a mom. I don't know how to get over this feeling.

I'm only 15 So I can't travel far alone. I often take the bus or train or cycle to new places around where I live, but given that my bike is a piece of crap and I don't have a job to get enough money to travel by bus and train often, I'm running out of ideas. I also read fiction alot which is quite cathartic.

My dad is very sad and angry I live with him and my 2 other sisters we have a lot of problems but my dad is just so sad I don't know what to do and it's hurting so much to see him like this. When he gets angry or of his drugs and stuff he can get really wierd he will start screaming and just yelling usually at me for little things and tells me it my fault for what's happening. He goes down stares and just screams he's worthless and there's no point and he hates himself and he just cries and I can hear all of it and I know when he's crying he's sitting in his back room down stares where his gun is and he's done this 4 times in the past month I'm scared and I don't want him to be like this anymore. He won't get help he won't get a normal job he just gave up on so many things and blames everyone for it. I don't know what to do please don't tell me to call someone to get him help or anything because it's not going to work and he would never even go get help unless he was dragged out of the house

What happens if he passes away? I want to know if i could be kicked out of the house upon his death. Would his sisters get the house?

So I'm 21 and I plan to move to my grandmas house since she said I can move back to her house in nyc my mom lives with me here in Florida and my dad lives in nyc and my dad says no your not gonna move to nyc not gonna happen. And i remember I had a arguement with him and. Asked why can't i make my own decisions and he said because your the baby of the family. I'm getting sick of him gettting in the way of my goals and dreams. How do I deal with this ?

My cousin is on drugs but refuses to take a drug test is there any way my aunt could be able trick him in order to get his urine in the cup?

I swear it's a legit question sounds like it wouldn't be but I'm foreal

My dad is a functional alcoholic for the past 10 years (works and brings home the dough but gets drunk immediately upon his return home and is verbally abusive every night) and my mother has her own issues as a result of their sour relationship. She also struggled with anxiety and depression earlier on when I was born and some of her behavior (shouting, overreacting to small things) has really affected me. I know both my parents love me and would do anything to provide for me, but their "bad sides" have really affected my outlook on life. If you look up "Adult Children of Alcoholics," most of the symptoms apply to me. Despite my home life, I've succeeded at school academically and socially, but I always feel like though I have many friends, it feels like a surface level thing as no one knows all of me (the home stuff). I don't like having to bring friends home from school because I feel stressed to make sure they are always entertained, and when I'm at home, I feel withdrawn and like I dissociate from those around me. On the occasions I've had schoolmates come home for sleepovers, I find myself irritated after an hour. I was planning on doing nothing for my eighteenth birthday, but my mom wants me to plan a party and do something fun because I haven't really celebrated since turning 10, and 18 is a milestone. I feel unhappy that I have to plan it. I want to have fun and don't want to sound ungrateful but why do I feel this way? My friend's mom threw her a surprise birthday party, and maybe that's making me jealous? :( I just don't want to be the jealous, ungrateful type. There are bigger things in life to be stressed about, but I'm just upset for some reason.

I don't want anything else to do with him. He married my half brother's granddaughter. This makes her his second cousin removed, because my brother is his half uncle.They may not be close in kin but I don't feel it is right and it's breaking my heart. Any suggestions? Am I wrong for feeling this way?

I get sad and mopey whenever I want to have fun (Christmas especially) and it happened last time I did one of these reunions. How do I prevent this from ruining the reunion?

No, I'm not some teenager living at home. I 'hated' them back then, sure. But at the same time, I also felt love towards them. Now for the past 2 months I'm just fed up. I can't do this anymore, and I want to cut them out of my life. I actually really believe I don't love them anymore. I'm 21 btw and haven't lived with them since I was 11. The government took me away from my mom back then. (They have been divorced since I was 2) I really don't have any good memories with them for the past 13 years. I have some good childhood memories with them even tho it has been ****. But for the past 13 years nothing else than constant fighting every time I see them. Even when I'm with my dad its just so awkward. We sit and don't say a word to each other in awkward silence. Then he tries asking something, and I welcome it and answer him. Then there's awkward silence again. I can't even look him in the eye, because of the awkwardness And if it's not awkwardness then we are fighting. Between me and my mom theres no awkwardness, we can talk. But there some other deep **** there, that makes us fight a lot. I don't want to go into details, otherwise I could write a whole novel. How can I live a happy life? I know there's something called daddy issues and mother issues, and that it leads people to problems in their adulthood I have both daddy and mother issues, with is even more horrible. It has really messed up my life. I keep telling myself I shouldn't blame my life on them. I'm my own master now, and I'm aware of this. But I can't stop thinking about the negativity in my chilldhood. It has kinda ****** me up

Ok. So my dad owns a business and makes about 15,000 after tax a month. I live in a 2 million dollar house. I drive a 45,000 car. My brother drives a 35,000 truck. My mom drives a 34,000 car. I don't pay bills. What am I considered.

I told my mom that I'd probably have takeb heroin years ago if it was legal and she still thinks all drugs should be legal. Then again no surprise...she doesn't give a living crap about me

I do. I just have my parents.

I don't like my Afghan mom behavior it makes me mad she expect me to take care of her but I don't want to I'm only staying at my parents house but I don't have money to take care of myself I can't take of my mom forever I have future and I need money for my future.

My husband and I been married for almost a year. We have 5 children ( 2 is mine - 3 is his) and 1 more on the way. We both work decent jobs and living with my in laws, just until we get everything situated. They are a very nice family, but just one problem is she won't let me make decisions for my other 3 kids (his kids) she loves them so much and I understand a grandmother's love is bigger than parents. Feels like she is going over me and doing my job as a mother. I gave my daughter (his daughter) some medicine due to a fever but my daughter said she didn't like it. Grandma told me to throw it away, if she doesn't like it, don't force her to take it. I gave it to her anyway, because my daughter needs to feel better. I can't make a decision weather they should go to school or stay home. If I do make them go to school she said I don't love them. My husband almost went to court because our son missed so many school days. I talked to my husband but sometimes he isn't a easy man to talk to either. I suggested we should move out ASAP. Because if she is there, than he doesn't need me here. I have 5 kids who I take care of, feed and buy clothes. I was told to clean up after the children. Clean up the house when we have guesses over, yet I can't make a decision for 3 of my children. I don't think anyone is going through what I'm going through. I am pregnant and tired lately. I'm slowly giving up.

I'm a 15-year-old girl and have been having a little trouble with my mother recently. She's basically banned me from seeing my best friend outside of school (for no good reason, we did nothing we weren't supposed to) and now I'm not even allowed to spend the night at my male cousin's house. When I ask her about why I can't sleep over my cousin's she basically says that we're "too old' and "the opposite gender." Do I even have to explain what she's insinuating? We've never made any sexual jokes towards each other, never done anything wrong with each other, etc. We're practically best friends and I'm even closer to him than I am to my older brother. No matter what I say, my mom is convinced that my cousin and I will do something disgusting. She's done this before, but not for the same reasons. Back in primary school, I was banned from seeing my friends for no reason, so I stayed inside every single day for months, developing a bit of social anxiety as a result. Do you guys have any suggestions for what to do? It gets really lonely staying inside by myself every day, since I can't even see either of my best friends. How did you deal with a paranoid and overprotective parent? And I forgot to add that she's had history of Schizophrenia and often accuses people of things without any context or proof. For example, she woke me up a few days ago at 5 am and told me that my brother molested me at the age of five.

So I dated my ex for a year, Jon.. Jon and I dated when I was going through a really hard time, I had just got kicked out of my dads house and I moved in with my mom and eventually my mom kicked me out because I wrecked my car. ( we got together Feb 2nd of 2018) I was 18 at the time this happened and Jon was 17 and not out of high school yet( this was in April) . He let me move in with him, his mom and his sisters because at the time I had nowhere to live. We had only been dating for 3 mths so this was a big deal. We got along fine, we just argued very frequently and I threatened to leave his home because he's yell so loud and his older sist had a baby at the time and he also had a younger sis. So I would want to remove myself and he always thought I was leaving him but in reality I thought we just needed time to cool off.. I thought I was making a good choice. I ended up moving out of His house to move in with my grandma who had just fell and needed some help healing. ( August) We stayed together through it all. We just got into one argument and we broke up for 2 days and we ended up getting back together and I found a girl in his phone. I always had trust issues after that happened. Then we went to Florida again to see my dad in Jan of 2019 and he acted like a total *** in front of my family and screamed at me, told my grandma she was annoying...a lot of things happened. We got back home and for me things were fine. He just wanted less sex and smelled like perfume sometimes

I am a guy in high school. My step mother is just a few years older than I am. Dad married a much younger woman. She is the greatest mother any guy can ask for. Dad must like young beautiful women. To say mom is beautiful is an under statement. She is gorgeous. Wow what a figure (36G would be my guess). Every morning when I leave for school, she give me a hug and a kiss and says "You are the greatest son ever". I am ashamed to admit it but sometimes when she does that, I have thoughts that a son should not have about his mother. Does this make me a bad son?

Our neighbors (the husband is friends with my husband and they often take weekend jobs together) left their barely 5 year old home by herself briefly yesterday. And now on two occasions, I have intercepted the little girl playing outside by herself. She is friends with my daughter and is in the same school this year. To me this is being neglectful. With everything going in the world today, I don't think I would leave a teenager by themselves, much less a child who isn't even in kindergarten yet. In you were in my position, would you report this to child services? I let my kids outside only if they stay on our porch. As soon as they wander off, they have to come in if I'm not in a position to go outside with them. However, this couple does not have a line of sight from their apartment to the playground. We have had issues with shady people wandering into the community, so it's not really safe for a child to be left alone to run around.
