Growing up me and my sister always had a close bond but I remember one time she was 6 I was 8 and her and i were playing in the treehouse my parents built us, and we started exploring eachother we got naked and I touched her privates and she touched mine we did this all the way up until I was 13 and she was 11, but I'm wondering is it normal for children to touch eachother and has anyone else done it?

 My parents got officially divorced on January 8th, 2019 and they gave everything to my dad. Custody, house, etc. Ever since they gave custody to my dad, me and my siblings have been suffering including my mom because we want to be with her but he doesn't want to understand that. He even told us that our mom will never have custody of us. I have tried everything so that my mom could have custody again like talking to CPS, talking to police, talking to school counselors but nothing worked. They never listened to me. My mom told me to go to the PD a'd refuse to go back home but I told her that I don't think it would work because they would call our dad to come pick us up and we're still minors. I'm 17 and the others are 14, 12, and 9. I'm leaving my dad next year but I'm worried for my siblings and how they're going to support themselves without me. Every time I explain the situation to people, they always support my dad and I don't know why. I even have anxiety now because of him. He treats us so so bad and what I wrote isn't half of what he did. What should we do in this type of situation when we want to be with mom? 

My question is how do I separate them? So my brother has barley had his first girlfriend ever and he's 20. Let me start off by saying I drank once with her (I'm his older sis 22)& we had fun, but then about an hour later she was faking that she had a seizure off of alcohol? I thought it was super odd because when I was asking if she should go to the hospital she just layed down & "fell asleep" & the next morning she was perfectly fine. Another time she was crying so my brother came & asked me if we can take her to the hospital so I said yes. We went & she said she had pain from her previous surgery. When she had left the ER she was prescribed downers for pain.  The night we drank I noticed the pills and asked what they were for & she was tipsy & said that her & my brother use them to get high. That pissed me off because I knew she was lying about having pain. My dad has a rule in the house for everyone that is there. It is that you either work or go to school. So we let her move in & she didn't want to work or go to school so two months passed & my dad told her she has to leave because she wasn't helping us pay the rent. Then she told us she got kicked out so she couldn't go back home.  My dad decided to talk with her parents and it turns out she was lying. Her parents never kicked her out, she left on her own. My dad then said she isn't allowed back at our house anymore.  My dad's truck driver so he is hardly home. Me & my sister HATE her because all she does is screw our lil brother all day & had no goals. We tell her to leave & she doesn't listen. She will sneak in our house behind my dads back. & when my dad comes home she leaves but keeps coming back.  We can't drag her out of the house because my brother will get involved & fight with us. We also called the cops on her & since my brother is a tenant & pays rent she is considered "his guest". What can we do? She has also send nudes to other guys and my brother has caught her and it broke his heart but he still chooses to stay with her. She also has no job and uses his money and our home to her advantage. She is disgusting. We talked to my brother about her and he still will choose her over his family.  We would kick him out but my mom won't let that happen. We love our brother we just hate his girlfriend. She locks herself in his room until he gets out of work everyday too. 

My baby's father other baby's mom just keep on telling me how she slept with him. Now she's sending video's of her kissing another man. My baby's father is so stressed out. All he did was tried to be there for their son. Isn't she's wrong? He was just telling me that they were on good terms. 

My brothers always treated her perfect and was never a good brother growing up to me. He never took me out, gave me rides, said I looked pretty, anything a good brother should do to his baby sister and then a stranger gets all his love and affection? I'm blood.. but I'm happy they're happy. Now she's pregnant and I'm happy but why can't my brother show me affection when I'm around too? I don't want her position that's his wife, I'm a sister. Bloods thicker than water. 

My ex is a bigger guy, we're still cordial for the sake of our daughter. He gets her during the week, I get weekends. What is alarming to me, especially lately, is how heavy she is getting. She was always chunky, but, since this setup of her being at her dad's for the week, she's been getting heavier. Easily over 210, 15years old. Has no energy, wants her weekend to be snacking and TV. I think his habit is affecting her. Who do I address this with? Her or him?

My cousin does this. Every day he's posting missing teenager stuff. I comment on his posts that the teenage girl has been found months ago. but he ignores my comments and just keeps posting them.

I'm 19 and live at home. I have no problem when it comes to chores and taking care of my brother but I just can't seem to get along with my mom at all and I live in a VERY expensive city and can't afford to live on my own. Every time we talk, she never has anything nice to say. I could be sitting on the couch and she's like you're a disappointment and you need to grow up. She makes me send my location every where I go. Last night she interrogated me and clearly didn't believe me because there was a gap of about 30 minutes in which she did not know my exact whereabouts. If I ever try to tell her I don't like the way she treats me she turns it on me and says I'm a terrible person for not appreciating her when I'm just trying to be honest and fix our relationship. Every time I go out with friends she tells me she's going to stay up the entire night with anxiety because I'm not home that way I will feel bad and not hang out with my friends. I don't know how much longer I can take this.

she keeps doing it nonstop and it gets annoying. i have no idea what shes talking about because she has like a thousand rings. she keeps implying that about 3 years ago i decided to try one of her rings on and it got stuck even though that has nothing to do with anything. my mom has always been very forgetful about where she puts stuff and puts away stuff in places where they originally were not. she leaves her car keys in random places and in the last minute before we go somewhere she has to look and either doesnt find them or takes a billion years to find them.

I am currently 21 years old, attending a 4-year University. I grew up believing that if someone smoked marijuana it changed them forever as a person. This much is why I never smoked it until I graduated high school. Little did I know I was so wrong.... To make matters worse, while still in high school I remember my elder sister, of 19 years at the time, first delving into marijuana. I remember the horrible feeling I had as I thought she was such a changed person now... the feeing I had after finding out I was wrong about that was much worse. The unnecessary stress I caused her for thinking she was a "druggie"... Now, I'm going through a similar situation with my parents as my sister did. I have reasoned with them and through a lot of hardships and time I'm now able to smoke in my old room when I come back for Holliday breaks. I'm not at all messy with it, but they do know and are seemingly perfectly fine with it... at times. Other times like this morning, it seems as if every reasonable conversation I thought we had, had just bounced right off their minds. Mother has blown up, claiming that it has made me depressed(and that I need help), that it's made me like a certain guy who has been put in an asylum for thinking he was god... that's the one that upsets me the most as I've not drawn a conclusion anywhere similar to that. My dad is the most reasonable, however neither have ever tried it. Today, he told me I needed to take a week off from it... when I might smoke 1g a week Substance abuse problem? What? I wouldn't ever consider the amount I use to be abusing it. I don't think an intelligent fly on the wall would either. However, to those saying why bother change their minds- well I know I looked at my own sister differently before I knew it wasn't a horrible drug. I assume the right thing to do is help them see their children without any filters. Rather than let them live a lie. That just seems a little too sad in my opinion.

what do i do i'm worried

So recently I got a new job and have to be there by 5:45 A.M. to clock in. I don't have a car, so I have to rely on my parents for transportation. Yesterday while working, I heard some of the other temp workers say we didn't have any work today. So when I got home, I let my parents know but they didn't believe me, even after I found evidence to corroborate that it was true. I was a little upset yesterday that my parents didn't believe me and still made me get up to go to work, but I realized that wasn't smart since I'm new and didn't know for sure. Today, I found out that I was right all along. When I get back in the car to let my parents know, they started screaming at me and telling me off about having an attitude (as usual) when I didn't have one. It's not like I didn't try to get this information beforehand, it's just that the supervisor wasn't there yesterday, and the office wasn't picking up any calls. I just don't like being accused of having an attitude and looked at as if I'm half-assing something when I know I'm putting in the effort. Does this sound like a person who is ungrateful? P.S. And before anyone says, "get a job and move out". Just know that that is already the plan. I can definitely see trust being the real issue here. For some reason my parents have never really trusted me to do pretty much anything without them constantly nagging me about it. I don't feel that I have particularly done anything to warrant it because my parents have always been like this since I can remember. But I'm not complaining or anything, I know it has to be like this until I move out, there is never any argument that will ever suffice in my parents eyes. Thanks guys, I'm starting to understand more now. I love coming on here because everyone is always so truthful and never sugarcoats anything.

A big lie was told that really hurt me. He had me plan on a trip this winter and then said the other day "up it's full, stay home". I would say it was an accident but this happens all the time. He lies a lot. I am not as hurt as I was on Monday but still hurting. I have to see him over Christmas though the rest of the family will be there. Right now I don;t like my Dad.

I was at my crushes house while he was upstairs and I was playing with his dog and it suddenly grabbed my chocolate donut which was almost completely intact and the dog completely ate it, I didn't say anything to my crush and I haven't told anyone, it will be okay right

Or having to take care of an elderly parent that can't do much for themself?

They hate me and I hate them. They stare at me all the time and I hate it. I can't escape them. I don't know what to do. They are ugly. They look at me and think they're better than me. 

She verbally abuses me. I am an adult but it hurts and feels like school. I am slow by learning disability and so she is embarrassed of me and complains about me to people. She does the same to my other sister though is nice to the brother who is all normal. She is 26. Last summer my father threw her out of a vacation house cause of her name calling and behavior. She was making everyone miserable. Only time I saw her since she wouldn't talk other then a cold "hi" and then complained I was sitting near her so I moved to sit in the other room. This was Thanksgiving. This same sister would not come to Thanksgiving the previous year cause she said her sister's autistic son makes her uncomfortable. That is how narcissistic she is. My mother shared with her that my mental illness has been worse. She used that against me when on this vacation she got thrown out on. I did snap back at her but felt like I was stooping down to her level so don't want to again. So should I buy her anything or just say "Hi Claire, Merry Christmas" and let her mumble something and then ignore her. Next August is her birthday and I plan to reach out then since it will have been a year. After Christmas I will only see her once likely before August and that is a wedding for a cousin.

I'm 15 and have a casual job where I only usually get one 4 hour shift a week. I'm saving the money for uni and as backup if I need to leave home (my mum is pretty emotionally abusive). My mum screamed at me this morning because I defended my grandma who got screamed at for doing nothing wrong and she told me that I better start paying rent because "that's what other people my age do." What should I do?? I really don't want to spend money to live in my own house but I don't have any other places to go right now until I finish school in 2 years.  Also, thought I should mention that I do contribute at home by looking after my younger siblings and I use my money at work to pay for my own food, clothes etc. So I'm not living without responsibility.
