I'm 14. I applied to all jobs I could and only one called me back. That one happens to be just under two miles away. When I told them, their objections were that they didn't want to deal with having to drive me. I told them that I could ride my bike or walk most of the time, but they just yelled at me and told me to be quiet about it. I was really excited about getting a job, becoming responsible, etc., but they don't want to deal with it, it seems. How can I convince them to let me get a job?

He bosses everyone around. It's his way or the highway. There's fights and arguments everyday. He's crazy. The cops has been called to our house many of times. My mom won't dump him. I don't know why she likes him.

Ok so it isn't safe where I live at sometimes but my mom doesn't want my outside alone because we live in a apartment buliding and I'm almost 16 and I'm the youngest child and I pay attention in the streets. Update: is this normal

My step dad has become obsessed with my mother to the point where he gets super jealous if I even talk to her. My mom told him she doesn't want to be with him anymore.  He is always making nasty comments saying I shouldn't be living here - I can not afford my own place yet.  He doesn't allow me to have alone time with my mother and is like a fly - always pestering my mom - bothers her the whole day. I find it kind of sickening how obsessed he is with her, I honestly want him to leave and never come back.  He acts like a giant baby , he has made a lot of mistakes. He is now claiming that he can't go to work because he is so damaged by my mother.  I'm starting to get super annoyed. And I feel very threatened that he is going to take my mother away from me (or find a way to get rid of me) , she is the only parent I have. I find it down right disgusting how he thinks he has the right to decide who is in my mothers life and who isn't especially because he makes me feel unwanted and also because he never gives me any time with my mother and spends the most time with my mother but says I never give him time with my mother. 

I'm feeling sad knowing that I was an accident My mom told me that her BF (my dad) at the time wanted to try it raw and it resulted in a pregnancy which made her very sad and she even contemplated on aborting me. She told me that she loves me a lot now and wouldn't give me away for anything but it was still kinda saddening to sau it flat out like that. She was 19 at the time and dad 22 so now she is 36 because she gave birth at 20.

I would prefer not to go into too much detail, but the gist of it is this person pointed out my insecurities and made me feel humiliated. I know they didn't mean to hurt me and they were just joking, which is why I'm trying my best not to hold a grudge, but for some reason, I'm struggling to let it go.

A few weeks ago I heard them doing it and I don't know how to deal with it. Last year I heard them doing it but it didn't bother me but they've done it again and it makes me feel sick. They thought I was asleep but because my rooms the one next to theirs I can hear them. The first time I heard it their bed was squeaking and I could hear them both moaning. So I sent my mom a text saying I felt sick. I think she then knew I heard them because I was crying. My moms boyfriend went into the bathroom. But since then they've got a new bed and it doesn't squeak but I can still hear my moms boyfriend. I can't say for sure that they where definitely doing it but it sounded like it. It makes me not want to go to there house and to stay at my dads because me and my dad have a really close bond. But next time they do it I'm going to cough really loudly until they stop because I knew if my mom knew I could hear her she would most definitely stop and she would be humiliated. I just don't know what to do because it makes me feel sick and I'm only 11 I shouldn't have to hear this at such an early age. My mom is also quite strict and wouldn't want me to watch or hear anything sex related. I didn't think I would ever have to hear that. I know it's natural and I guess I should be happy that they love each other but I can't. I don't know why. Can someone give me advice? 

I always wash my dishes as I go.  Dirty dishes are a HUGE pet peeve of mine. She keeps having meltdowns because she insists that I am not doing dishes.  She lets them pile high then cleans once we can't reach the sink but insists that I am contributing to her mess. What can I do to get through to her?

I don't know what I want to ask as a question. I'm seeking for advice. I'm a 19 year old female. My parents always think I'm rude to them, while I don't feel like I say anything impolite to them. They say that I should call them respectfully with plural "you" (in my native language). I told them that it's the 21st century and no one feels like calling his/her parents in this way and they started yelling at me and cursing me, saying like:"Who do you think you are? Your generation has made this world like sh*t!". They often compare me with other people in my age and say like:"Look at them. They're so respectful towards their parents!", while I know they are not! I explained to them that they can't judge people's private lives based on their behaviour in the society...They should see how they behave in their homes. They started insulting me. My father even tried to punch me on the face. I defended myself and my mother told me to shut up. I live at a dorm, but since I'm a full-time student, I can't find a good job with a good income. During the holidays, the dorm doesn't allow students to stay

Mom was 21 when she had me and dad 23 in 2004

My wedding party:  I have my 3 biological sisters and 1 cousin. I want to keep my party small.  My fiancé has his 1 biological brother, MY 2 brothers and his best friend. My fiancé has 1 younger and only sister who's 20 and she's the only "sibling" without a spot. It generally looks bad thinking about how all our siblings will be at the alter with us but her. Also, how my mother IL would feel that being her only daughter.  She has shown no interest in me since my fiancé brought me home years back. I thought over time it would get better, but shes done everything she can to make me feel excluded. I've been around for years now and I've never even heard her say my name. I'm referred to as "her." Even though I wasn't going to make her a bridesmaid, I wanted to include her somehow. Until a couple days ago I was forwarded texts from her talking LOW of me. The text was sent to someone else who forwarded it to me, it said:  "This girl has came into the family thinking she's in and we all love her and she's all part of the family. She's gonna control my brother and take over and she'll love it. I don't even know what he sees in her she's not making him better, she needs a new wardrobe, I don't even like her who cares ETC." I showed my fiancé and he's leading it up to me. He feels bad and embarrassed on her part. I can't even look at the girl in the face! Wedding in 3 months ugh!! Not sure what to do. 

It's Sunday and on Sunday's is day to relax and stay in bed. But my father wants me to go out and since I didn't do what he said he got so freaking mad and got me scared and I don't know what to do now. 

My brother apparently has been sleeping with a shirt over his head and motorcycle helmet strapped on over top, visor down. There's visible condensation covering the inside of the visorI have no idea why, and he seems to be secretive about it. Insistent it's fine. Regardless of the motivation, is it safe or could he possibly suffocate or something?

AITA for walking into my parents' room without knocking and then catching them doing it? This happened last night when I woke up with a horrivle headache and it just hurt like hell. My parents keep their medicine in their room so you can probably figure out what happened. I got out of my bed and sneakily walked up to their door to not wake them up. After that I opened the door REALLY slowly and quietly to not wake anyone up at this time of the day. I see my mom on top of my dad and mind you that they didn't notice me immediatly because the hallway was completely dark too but after a few seconds of me trying to get out my mom calls my dad's name and he got super mad at me while I was on the other side. I could hear him going on about how I watched them on purpose even though I didn't. I decided to go back to my room and just try to deal with the headache but my mom came in soon after to ask what I needed and to tell me to always knock on people's bedroom doors. I told her that I needed painkillers. She left and came back with them and water and I thanked her and she kissed my forehead and left.  "One question, what were you guys doing?"  "I was helping dad with his back pain as I do to patients (Mom is a chiropractor)" Today when mom had left for grocery shopping my dad told me to always knock wait for a response.  My parents are 35 and 36 and I'm 14. Edit: I felt like opening the door slowly without knocking would be a good idea to not wake anyone up

Before my mom stopped calling me, we were going places together like, The casino and out to eat. Plus, I use to give her money for cigarettes or just things she needed it around her house. Well, after she met this one guy, she started accusing me of wanting him. She even put it on facebook that I actually slept with HER man! I was hurt because it WAS NEVER TRUE! My sister was doing it also. I felt so betrayed by both of them that I actually wanted to commit suicide. But as time went on, I forgave the both of them. Now, my MOM doesn't even call me. Matter of fact, she gave her number to my sister's and brother, EXCEPT ME! I really don't know what to do. My mom allowed my sister's boyfriend to call me names in her face and never once checked him for it. So, obviously I think that I should just stay away forever. 😞should I just give up on trying to talk to her?

I know someone who got abuse by her parent, she always rant to me on how her life is so hard and i can't just keep her suffer like that, but when i ask her permission to call someone who could help, she refuse it and mad at me because she is afraid she cant live without her parent. Is this the sign that she got abuse so much that she start thinking she dont need help? If so, what should i do?

My mom just turned 60, and has always been the type to judge everyone and everyone but herself. She'll be quick to call anyone out on their mistakes, but the minute she gets called out she runs away and says 'I gotta go!' I've always felt like I've never been good enough for her. One minute she'll be like it understand I'll help you get through this' the next she'll switch and criticize me for not being 'enough'. I do NOTHING but praise her and I refuse to lie to her. Sure I had my days as a teenager where I would fight with her, but overall I respect her and everything she's ever done. Recently I told her how tight money was and she was telling me how 'well, that's life you should figure it out' when reality is that my hours from work got cut and my temporary job ended sooner than I thought when I found out through email. She's telling me it's not that hard when she's still getting her divorce settlement that she openly admitted getting, and her boyfriend pays for everything. I love her, but at the same time I'm worried about her. Her boyfriend is even fed up with her not listening to anything anyone says. 

I told my manager about the funeral and then she asked me if i was coming after the funeral and guilted into coming after the funeral and asked what i was doing after the funeral and why o couldn't come after the funeral if it was early and there must be a closer and i was told my grandmother's death just happened at an inconvenient time. The thing is the next day there won't be a closer because the closer can't stay until closing and she isnt expected to stay I guess that i am not clear. They want me to go the day of the funeral even though company policy states that i can get up to three days of bereavement. I was only asking for one day and the manager who was guilting me and said there must be a closer didnt think the policy applied to her because she was planning on leaving early the following day and didn't care there was no closer I was supposed to get the bereavement pay so i wouldn't be losing pay they just said her death was just inconvenience for coverage 

I'm 28, F, been living with my 55 year old half-brother for 6 yearrs. If I accidentally push his buttons too much, he'll go into a fit of rage. He always apologizes afterward, but he also says it's my fault. He also claims that I'm the person he loves and cares for the most in this world, but that for some reason, I'm also the only person who brings out the rage inside of him. I don't do it on purpose. He's had times where he's gotten so angry that he's screamed in my face that he wanted to kill me (has happened more than once), has called me names, pushed me down multiple times and one time it was so hard I bruised my tailbone. He also has literally run toward me while screaming & swinging a weapon like a maniac (It wasn't an actual weapon, but it could've easily been used as one. He also DIDN'T actually hit me with the weapon, but I was standing frozen next to the couch in our living room, and instead of hitting me, he repeatedly hit the couch violently while screaming. He calmed down after 10-20 seconds of this). Also in the last year, he's put his hands around my throat twice out of anger. He DIDN'T actually squeeze it, I could still breathe & he let go after I screamed. He IS nice to me most of the time and his anger episodes don't happen often, but when they do, I become depressed & lose my motivation to do anything. Edited to add more info in the details below... I want to move back in with my parents (just until I get a job & can support myself). I don't have a drivers license, so I can't drive myself. I also can't take the bus because I have a cat & dog. I won't leave them behind. I talked to my family about driving up to get me (I didn't tell them about my brothers anger, tho) and they said they can't afford the gas (altogether, it'd be a 12 hr drive). Should I ask my brother to drive me home? How should I start the convo? Thanks

Para empezar me gustaria decir que no soy gay, me gustan las mujeres y cada vez que veo una chica bonita me excita pero en general si me dieran a escoger me gustan las cosas fuera de lo correcto socialmente, hace meses que cuando me masturbo agarro la ropa interior de mi tia me prende mucho y cuando la veo en ropa corta me gusta mucho, lo mismo con mi prima, se que no es correcto y quiza por eso me excita tanto aparte que son mujeres muy atractivas simplemente me gustan las cosas asi creo y ahora ultimo tengo un amigo que es bien inocente no entiende nada del doble sentido digamos y dudo que alguna vez se haya hecho una paja y quiza eso de que no sabe me provoca enseñarle como hacerlo se que no es correcto y como vuelvo a repetir no siento que sea gay solo quiero quitarle eso y si mi tia me dijera para hacerlo tambien lo haria aunque se que ninguna de esas cosas es correcto por eso quiero saber es normal que todo hombre quiera experimentar tantas acciones incorrectas y si debo hacerlo??

My parents don't recognize my distaste for red meat. and force me to eat it. They take away my phone if I don't what do I do?
