My sons gf is sweet to my son takes him on vacation with her family and gets him nice gifts. However she has a lot of disrespect it seems towards me and my daughter. She wasn't allowed to sleep over but now I've allowed it sometimes which turned into weekly. She leaves her dirty laundry on his rloor including bras and underwear in plain sight even when his friends come over. I've told my son to make sure it stops which it hasn't. When my son got sick she yelled at me downstairs for making him soup and said she already made him soup. She wouldn't let my daughter in the room to check on him. She also has been vocal when I suspected they were having sex in my house during the day all of us awake and in the house. She plays nice and innocent and I don't want ny son to just leave her but I don't understand what she's doing I'm losing control of my own home. My daughter had enough with her and thinks she leaves her underwear on the floor on purpose and wants us to know she's the only female he needs in his life. I'm worried because my son was in relationships in the passed where the girl was controlling and emotionally abusing him. I can't tell him what I think without him turning his back on me. She is also very jealous and writes messages on her Facebook page exposing girls that tried to contact him that he used to be friends with.

I'm turning 17 here pretty soon and about to start junior year of highschool in less than 10 days. I'm also about to get my license and it's starting to hit me that college is just around the corner and it all feels like it's going too fast. I don't know how to live on my own and I don't know what to expect and I know I'll miss my family when I'm in college. Also my father and mother's age is starting to show and it stresses me out because I know that there will come a day when they pass away and it just makes me so sad. I don't know what it's like to live as an adult and it's all just coming so quickly. I also haven't lost a close family member yet but just knowing that they will all pass away one day makes me feel sick. I'm just so stressed out.

I haven't left the house in 9 years. Since I was around 14. I'm 22 now. Not once has my mom made me leave the house. When I ask her about it she says it's my fault I haven't left the house in so long but she's the one who never made me. She's the parent. Who would allow their kid to stay in the house that long away from the world knowing when they finally leave the house it's gonna be hard and things are different? She would never allow my siblings to stay in the house that long. When my sister went crazy she got her help right away. Why won't she get me help? Something's wrong with me if I have a hard time leaving the house. I just don't know what.

But her parents aren't staying , is it really necessary for them to stay im 15 and 1/2. My mom said if her parents aren't staying then I can't go. I feel like if her sister is staying there then wats the problem she's so strict.

Hi everyone! I really need another perspective at this time. I am a 22 y/o female & recent college graduate, pursuing my masters after I save up during this year at home. My dad married my step mother who has three young (13 and under) children and they now have a house that I reside in with them. To be honest, I really have little interest in hanging out with them on a typical day-to-day. My dad is rarely here due to his work, and my step mom stays at home with her kids every day. I can sense some animosity from her because I'm rarely here - and when I AM here I tend to keep to myself in my room because her AND the three kids running around the house (the house is also a disastrous mess), gives me anxiety when I want to simply relax and be alone while I am home/in-between work and leaving to go travel and hangout with my friends. This animosity I have felt from her is taking a toll on our relationship. We used to be pretty close; she's on the younger-side, very fun, outgoing, etc. I am just going through a lot of life changes and I REALLY enjoy solitude while I'm in my home. This solitude is impossible to obtain unless they are gone for an extended amount of time or unless I just stick to my bedroom until I am ready to leave again to work, go to the gym, or hangout with friends.

She's in the hospital after having her second heart attack. And the doctors are seeing some severe medical problems. I don't like her because she says I'm fat and ugly. And calls my aunt's kids pretty little girls. But I'm hideous. I thought family is the only people who have to be nice to you. When she's gone I'm going to go shopping to celebrate.

I have really strict Indian parents, and for most of the summer, my parents have been restricting my phone usage to 30 min. a day. The only other device I have is a school Chromebook where I can't really do much on since its summer. My little brother uses my parents' MacBook almost the whole day to watch youtube, which they specifically banned him from doing yet still provide no disciplinary action. Also, I have no other way of contacting my friends since my parents refuse to have anything to do with them if they have a life outside of school and studying. Please help. I haven´t done anything wrong. Summer is meant to be good, but my parents are making it feel like hell. Edit: I would hang with my friends, but the way we organize meetups is through texting, and I haven't seen them all summer

I have no help whatsoever I'm a single mother and 30 years old . I have to get up at 5 am to get my daughter dressed and give her to my mom so she could take her to daycare . My 1 year olds socks were pulled off and I don't know where she dropped them . My daughter was dressed in a pink body suit with a pink coat. My mom didn't feel she looked nice enough for her friends and said I should have woke up early enough to dress her better and she should have had socks on ... it's summer btw daughter always pulls them off I can't keep track. Mom threatened to stop taking her to daycare over this first time . Am I in the wrong ? What do I do ? Thanks

He s 4 years older than me and I have talked about the show but every time I ask him to at least look at the trailer he doesn t yet when he asks me then I do watch the trailer/video. He doesn t even say if he hates the show or it s not his style.

Like if someone is an alcoholic they call it an alcoholic family even if just one person is the alcoholic and here there is both my aunt and my sister.

They say to come visit them at this beach but I dislike their friends and cannot support a place that has done that kind of damage. I will go Mother's Day and Father's Day but that is all. One friend even sleeps with married men which should be a crime. They are not even on the beach so what is the point of moving to a beach when all you see from your house is obnoxious neighbors?

I grew up In the military my dad served 23 1/2 years. My dad miss out on a lot grow up 7 birthdays 10 Christmas 11 thanksgiving 6 Halloween. Yes I kept track anyway my dad retired from the military bought a house. Just the last two month my parents sold the house after living in it for 9 years. I feel like I be cut deep I dealt with my my dad being gone way to much I hate my parents right now. Every time my dad went on a mission for a year or two my mom would work 2 full time jobs plus a part time to keep busy. I learn to cook clean pay bills do laundry at a very young age I didn't have my parents around growing up. After my dad retire we started being a family that I dream of when my dad was in the military, with them selling the house moving out of state I feel like I been betray bc I always thought my parents won't leave me again. Yes I'm married but I always saw my parts 4 times a week that 16 times a month. Right now I don't know what to do; one min I was want to scream cuss the night just cry for hours. I actually hate my parents right now. because I was so use to my dad not being home or thinking the next time he comes home will it be under a flag. I have nightmares now I can't sleep anymore barely eat.

Long story short, he recently graduated from college and got a good job. I asked him about his plans about a wife and he said, "I'm going to work, avoid marriage and when I am 50 years old, I'm going to do what Mick Jagger does and have a baby with a 20 year old while I am 50. Should I be worried? I mean he does have a good job and lives on his own, but I worry that he's going to end up a womanizer. What do you think?

So my boyfriend of nearly 7 years father died the other morning and I stayed at the hospital with his step-mother so she wouldn t be alone. Everyone else left to go to work or what have you. Was it wrong of me? I know she was there for me after my mother died and I adored her and his father a great deal. I just wonder if I did the right thing.

My son is 16 years old. He likes to play video games, listen to weird "rock" music and one day I even caught him looking at a Playboy magazine. It's tough because we are a conservative Christian family. I've tried to educate my son into our ways. We've limited his video game playing to an hour a day. He's not allowed to play any games above an E rating and failure to comply with these rules will result in the Xbox being taken away for a month, as well as his privileges of seeing his friends. Violent movies are also a no-no in our house. All our movies are family friendly movies that we can all watch together. TV shows work the same way and we use the V-Chip in our house to prevent our kids watching shows with vulgar content. We also do not allow our kids to have smartphones but we let them have basic Jitterbug flip phones so they can call and text us and we do not allow them to call or message anyone outside of the family. Once a week we require our children to give us their cellphones so we can check them and make sure they aren't doing anything inappropriate. My son is to be home by 7:30 everyday and he is not allowed to move out and date until he is 25. Every night, we order our kids into our room and we all kneel down on the bed in a row and pray. I am a firm believer of God and I thank him for helping my family maintain a good life and may he deserve the utmost respect. What else can I do for my son to teach him in the ways of the light and put him on the right path?

I feel hatred towards my arrogant father. PEARL----I am an adult so calling CPS is useless as I am out on my own and only see this man about once a month.

Hello guys, I want to touch on a subject that is very important to me, I've been dealing with it for a long time, when I was a kid, my family was going through lots of fighting and all I did was runaway and hide and was always scared and was told what to do and somehow these negative beliefs became part of of me and started affecting my life later on, but the thing is I remember before all the fights started, I use to go to school having a bunch of friends and at that time I was so confident and strong and I never seek validation from anyone I would easily make friends with whoever person I meet whether at school or any event but now I wonder how come that was also my reality & how the circumstances (the fights) affected me and now I'm this other person going through negative thoughts all the time. I want to go back to that mentality when I didn't have all these negative emotions, before the fights, I'm just confused, was that the person I would be now if it weren't for the fights and negative energy the family had on me??? or am I meant to be this person who is insecure? I experienced both realities but now somehow I'm stuck on this negative one, I want to go back to how I was strong and confident, would really appreciate if you help me thanks!

She is like my mother where she refuses mercy on others and makes her kids hate who she hates. I rose above my mother in that but my mother was the same way when I was a kid. My Mom's families wrath is upon their brother (son)'s wife who wants out of the marriage. Their wrath is on someone at all times and at her now. Even my step-father now has wrath on this woman. I am not saying the woman is right to be leaving her marriage but how do I calm their wrath? My aunt has already kicked in the uncle's wife's door to cease a painting that belongs to him. She isn't having an affair or anything, it is just a marriage ending as she is unforgiving and he has a short fuse.

I live with her, and financially this has been helpful. She also has had two strokes in the past couple years. Mentally she's fine but physically she's getting a worse. She has to call 911 at least once a week because she falls or can't get up off the chair... sometimes everyday. She's starting to need help on the toilet too. I'm taking classes and I'm working around 30 hours a week, and by next year I'll be in my first year of teaching. And I have my personal outlet that I refuse to give up, because I need to get out of the house and be involved in something I love. My mom says she wants to die. Both mentally and emotionally I literally cannot be there for her at all times. She gets around 10 hours of in home help a week, but I'm gone alot more then this! Today, I finally put my foot down and I said she HAS to look into getting some more help or I need to move out.

My child is no longer allowed at grandma's house because she allowed my Registered Sex Offender Uncle (mother's brother) to see him without my permission. I do not associate with my uncle, he has a history of sexual violent crime stemming from his youth against children. I can not attest whether he is "rehabilitated" or not. My uncle has been living on the first floor of my mother's house since I was 12. Personally, he has never made me feel uncomfortable, but I hid myself from him so much that I can count how many times I have spoken to him. Anyway, I feel very strongly about having anyone around my kid, but especially someone who has been convicted of a violent crime against a child. My mother's defense is that she had to bring the baby (my child) to the first floor where my uncle lives because there was a leak in the basement, and she had to check it out and didn't want to leave the baby upstairs by himself. To make matters worst, my uncle has 2 of his children living with him and they are severely emotionally disturbed children (definitely not the type I would have around a newborn). So, instead of contacting me or my husband (who is 5 minutes away) to come home early, she took it upon herself to make a decision that could have put my child at risk. Granted, nothing happen to him, but its the principle. I really want to level with her and make amends, where we are both on the same page because right now I am full blown mommy rage and said things I regret to her.

Awhile ago my mother "Leanne" told me that my maternal uncle masturbated on my clothes when I was a child and that my late grandmother "Elizabeth" threw my clothes in the trash and didn't tell anybody about this while my late great-grandmother "Elenor" just hide them in her late husband's trunk but she didn't tell my mother about any of this until "Elenor" was in her death bed. "Leanne" is not mad at her grandmother at all for not telling her about this, if anything "Leanne" worships her bc according to her, "Elenor" was an amazing person and surrogate mother to her but "Leanne" hates her own mother/"Elizabeth" (who was also more of a mother to me than "Leanne" ever was) for the exact same reason. It doesn't make any sense to me. I was furious when I found out about this and told "Leanne" that I no longer feel any love or respect towards "Elenor" and she went BALLISTIC. We got into a heated argument that escalated into a fist fight. Now we both got bruises and she locked me in the apartment for a week. I'm mad at "Elizabeth" too bc she also helped get rid of the evidence but "Leanne" only cares that I disrespected her own grandmother. Am I wrong for being mad at her and my great-grandmother?.

Hide for dear life? Or is this PMS? My Mom is 41

Shes very obsessed with making sure fires dont start and with every one of her belongings in her house being pristine. Its so annoying to be nagged about every little thing its like living in a porcelain shop. Thanks!
