I'm 15 and my parents are divorced. My dad's been kicking me out and making me come back every couple months (just to kick me out the next week) ever since i was 11. When my mom and dad got divorced my dad got married again and his wife kicked me out too and said my dad couldnt talk to me. They got divorced so i went back and then my dad got another girlfriend. She told me i couldnt stay there because 'i took too much of my dad's time' (which has been the reasons most times, even though i stay in my room).. That being said ive also chosen to leave before because of abuse and what not. But today my dad's girlfriend said i cant text or call anymore. They also want to move 3 hours away, while me and my disabled brother are still in school and my mom lives here. Can they (dad/his girlfriend) get in trouble for this???

So yesterday my mom wanted me to make a grocery list ,so I did. I put every food the kitchen was missing that we usually eat on the list. My mom just got her food stamps so I know had enough money to get everyone food. Today she came back with a bunch of groceries, and literally everything was hers. She brought me and my brother one thing ,a small box of Ramen noodles to share and this surpost last us a month. I'm so mad right now because she always does this all the time/years. And i'm starving.She gets mad if we eat her food.so Why does she list us on her food stamp card if she only buys food for her self.

I live in the same house with my stepdad but lately he been getting mad at me for the stupidest reason and when I tried to tell him to calm down it get worse. We are Asian so my parent always "follow" rules that they grew up to. Each time me and my dad is alone my dad always try to pick a fight with me and he NEVER admit that he is wrong to anything. I tried reasoning with my mom but she always taken his side of the story and is always like 2 on 1. Please help me deal with this sometime I just feel like killing myself so it will be all over and done.

I'm 19 and as of next week, I will be a sophomore in college. I decided to go to a smaller college to save money since I want to go to vet school. So, I live at home with my father and younger sister. Ever since I was a child, my Dad discouraged me from making friends and up to this day he tells me to not have a boyfriend until after grad school. So, I've always been an awkward and quiet child. I made friends anyways and now I have a bf (my first one btw, so I'm not telling him). My Dad wants me home by 4:30-5:00pm. Even when I tell him that I'm out with friends. He blows up my phone before 6 if I'm not home by then. According to him (and his side of the family), there is a difference between girls and guys being out late at night. As if guys would be reading Bible verses and girls would be out having sex. The women in my family are successful when the guys are fooling around yet the women are raised more strict. It makes no sense. My Dad only wants me at home or at school. Then occasionally at my grandmothers. It's ridiculous that a 19 year old isn't allowed out because she has a vagina but my cousin (who is 17 and a male) can be out as late as he want. I've done nothing to disprove his trust. My grades are good. I don't disrespect him. What's his deal? However, my mom doesn't mind me being out late because she trusts me. She knows that I'm responsible. She told me that my Dad is that way because before he was even my age he slept around and did things he wasn't proud of.

So I want to make a speech for my mom this Mother's Day to express how I feel about the special mom I am blessed to have. That is the easy part. the hard part is finding a gift she will love, use, and enjoy! In short my mom is a nurse at a nursing home, she is really into running, (we are starting to do marathons together) :) she is starting to lift weights this year (I got her in it ;)), she has trendy taste in clothes, J. Crew, Nordstrom, Banana Republic etc, She likes to cook as well (what mom doesnt) she likes to learn new things I can go on but I just don't know what to get her! My budget this year is $150-200. Any creative meaningful and memerable gift ideas to go with my speech would be awesome!

Hi! I'm trying to find a test around on yahoo, but I am unable to find a very good one. So I need outside opinions. My mom has never gotten a long with me, she had me at 17. I understand she is stressed, but when I was younger she would hit me a lot. She doesn't as much now (I am 15) but she is more verbal now. Such as a scenario about a month ago, I accidentally cleaned a spatula wrong so when I woke up she stomped to my door and started pounding on it to break it down. I went out there and said "What? What did I do this time?" And my step dad shoves the spatula in my face. I was so confused, but I got angry and I yelled "I've had enough of this! Why am I in so much trouble for these stupid things!" And I ran to my room, my mom however was like "I'm going to beat your ******* face, and chased me down and jumped on me and pinned me to the floor and started ripping my hair and I was screaming "STOP! PLEASE STOP!" as she cussed me out. And I get grounded afterwards. :/ I was recently put in a mental hospital, because I was cutting and I begged for help. And so I got out in Jan and they gave me medication to take for anxiety and depression and I was supposed to see a therapist and a psychiatrists for awhile after. I did twice, I told them about my mom and we would leave and she would ***** at me for telling them what she did and she said "MAYBE YOU SHOULD TELL THEM ABOUT YOUR ONLINE BOYFRIENDS AND THATS WHY YOU WANT TO KILL YOURSELF. MAKING YOUR OWN MOTHER HO SPOILS YOU TO SEEM TO SEEM LIKE A *****. (continuing more) Anyway, so she would mock me for awhile after and so I went again for the last time (third time) and I told them and they did a quiz on me to find out the cause of my depression and anxiety and why I'm so fidgety and scared of people. And they calculated it was something that happened around age 12 and that I had trust issues with people from emotional abuse. And they told me they could tell I was scared of my mom. And they said I needed to get out but I am to scared to leave And I have no where to go. Anyway after that appointment my mom never took my back and she took away my medication. :/ I'm in tears, I feel like I have no one. There is no one I can live with (not my dad or moms side) and I told my therapist there was no where I could go. And they wanted to get me out and I was almost done with it when I kept a list of things she does cause its so common for her to hurt me in some way I would forget, she somehow went through my millions of notebooks and found it (never took me back to therapy) I feel like I have no one. But at the same time maybe its just my fault. She tells me I'm dramatic and everyone has anxiety and depression like me and well I guess shes right I don't know anymore! She only sometimes has huge outbursts so maybe all parents do and I am being dramatic just someone help me! I hate my own home and I feel like the stress will never go and I feel like I have no one and I think I'm just sinking back to where I was before I was hospitalis My stepdad has only threatened to hurt me by pinning me down and threatening to punch my face once when I was about 12 but now he only says rude remarks every day. I stay in my too to avoid most things though. Maybe my mom is stressed i dont know anymore. When I was younger I would hear my mom and stepdad have sex all the time, it traumatized me and I would always punch holes in the walls. They seperated for a year in 2013, but they got back together last summer. When they seperated she would always bring guys home and I would have to listen to them have sex. I can't talk to my mom about any of this because I'll just get in trouble and she'll tell me to get out of the room and go away and I'll get in troule so don't suggest that

I have about 4,000 saved up, which isn't much. I'm aware. I currently make 2,000 a month, but only because my job is busier during the warmer months. As it approaches September, I will probably be making 1200 a month while going to a community college that costs me nothing due to financial aid. Would I be able to rent my own apartment and live comfortably? I no longer want to live at home, there are 5 cars parked out front everyday in our small driveway (Gma and uncle lives here + mom and step dad) It's crowded here especially since my mom has recently married. I don't like the guy, he flirted with an 18 year old coworker of mine very early on in the relationship while he was talking to my mom and I hold it against him. she also wants me to pay $300 a month to share a room with my little sister who I drop off to school and take care. I pay for my little sister's sports fees, academic fees, whatever she needs. My mom has also made me move a lot of my stuff into the garage be she is OCD about the placement of things and irritates me. I love my mom, but we are constantly fighting. Additional background info: -live in CO -mom is constantly telling me to not judge her husband "only God can" and they do seem happy so maybe I'm being unreasonable? should I just stick it out here? -18 and plan on taking a couple summer classes as well as classes in the fall -tell me, will I have a life? Especially if I move out

I'm 22 years old and I don't know what I ever did for my family to treat me this way. My mom she is always stealing my clothes because her excuse is that I'm fat but I'm not she always makes fun of my weight so does my sister my father even said that I'm a disgrace and keeps talking about my weight because my sister is skinny and they don't do nothing when my sister threatened me with a knife and my mom did the same thing but they don't get help whenever I try defending myself to protect myself against them they call 911 on me and I'm the one that suffers I even tried to committed suicide because how they treated me. My mom keeps trying to force me back to an ex boyfriend who used to abuse me physically mentally and emotionally. She knew what he did to me she even tried moving him in without him paying rent. She always makes herself look like a nice lady in public but she hides her true colors. She and my dad treats my sister more fairly. My dad didn't care that I was getting bullied in school but when it was my sister he helps her. I had an old friend who I cut off because that ***** used to make fun of my weight and my mom and sister tagged team with her putting me down. She only works two times a week but she can't send my 10yrs old brother to school why he's doing poorly. My moms sister lived with us at one point she used to molest me sexually physically mentally and emotionally abuse me and my mom knew about it

I smoke weed occasionally and my step mom has some very harsh views with the plant. She told me that because I have been smoking weed before 21 I am brain damaged and going to be homeless. My parents used to pay for my classes for school but when my step mom learned of me smoking they waited until the first day of classes to say they can't pay for my school because of my cannabis use. They left me jobless with no way of paying for my classes. I had no way to pay for classes so I was forced to drop out. How can I go back to them without being weird? I feel abandoned and if they loved me they would be calling me to check in on me but they never do. I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE WITH THEM AT ALL I just want to be able to see them without it being weird what should I say to them?

~ As a (young) teenager, how do I get close to my Aunts, Grandmas, and older cousins? ~ I like to be around older women(40+), and I don't really like to hang out with girls my age. I used to have better relationships with my family members, but after not seeing them for three years, I kinda don't really know how to act around them. By that I mean that I don't know them that well anymore, and I don't feel like I have a great relationship with them(I do with some of my Aunts, though). Thanks in advance!

Hello i have notice that his older brother treats my husband kinda bad different to his other brother. We all work together and theres always something that kinda bothers me . like if he needs someone to go pick up a car and his brother (not my husband) he will say im sending my brother right now over he will be there. But when its my husband he will call him this guy. I have notice when there mother comes over from her country she will bring stuff and just leave the left overs for him. The older brother always yelling at him when he cant find something when he didnt explain correctly where it was by. The other day in front of me and customers he was telling him the radio was next to rhe box up there. We are loooking like with box since there many maybe we can see it next to any of the boxes so he yells saids his name like behind the box up there.. The rother boxxx!! Up there!! Damn so i said if u was more specific at first maybe we would a found it he smile & said he did a customer (men ) said he said the box up there i told him no body talking to him . i felt bad and mad cause i had to be rude to him for jumping in a combo that didnt he didnt belong. Its been years i notices this but now me been pregnant it really bothers me. He has health problems and they know this i feel bad i know i should get in between witch i havent but i wonder how he feels cause when i ask him he said he dont care. Does he care i think he does.. Are u or some one in similar situation?

I was born without siblings. All my life I thought that I was alone as my parents were both working doctors and I my aunt babysat me. My older cousins would bully me often but I did not tell many people about this except my mother. Now my father is known for his strict demeanor, his over-protectiveness and his spiteful hatred towards those he dislikes. My mum on the other hand is one who is always eager to forgive and forget and either she thought that I exaggerated or she just didn't want to tell my dad I do not know. Then, I started school and was immediately praised for my mental aptitude but also criticized for my shyness. Without having any friends, I clung to my known relatives and spent my time with my cousin. He would carry himself in a haughty manner and belittle me. As years passed, I became increasingly aware of this and left him. I managed to forge two separate friendships and maintain them until they faltered.I had a few crushes at school and I even felt courageous enough to make advances but got rejected because I was "too odd." I wouldn't say that it dampened my self-esteem. At home, my experiences have been singular and really quite monotonous as I was never truly allowed to leave the house due to my father's paranoia and over-protectiveness. I have nearly everything that I could ever want but still I am not given an allowance or freedom to leave the house. I have been kept away from all negative influences but I am unhappy.I am currently seventeen.

Alright so I previously self harmed awhile back & I had a friend over & basically she cut me on ancident where I used to cut & if I didn't know better I would say it looked like a self harm cut. It's minor but it's there. & so tomorrow I have to go to the dermatologist & my mom could potentially see the cut & to avoid conflict I need to cover it up. I planned to wear a baggy shirt plus a jacket that's loose to cover it up too, along with putting foundation on it. But is there any tips on covering it up?

I'm a 22 year old guy and she is 19. She weights 50 pounds less than me, can leg press more, and can beat me in leg wrestling. I've tried working out but I can't even come close to catching her. It's so embarrassing because she tells people

My sister has special needs and has recently had a baby. They let them go home but after 3 days they placed her and baby into a foster home where she could be assessed but after two days my sister left her baby and went home, the following day she asked to return and after 45 min she left again. my mum is looking to get custody of the baby but at the moment my sister still has patentle rights. Can anyone help to where we can go from here

My Sister (20) currently lives with my children and I ages 9 and 2. She does not put any money toward the bills or rent as of now. The prior arrangement was that I would pay her phone bill ($50) if she helped around the house. I am returning to work this next week and she will have to care for my 2 year old for 6-8 hours a day during the week, and my 9 year old for 1.5 hours after school. I had wanted to pay her $100 a week, but every time I come home she is asleep, my toddler has a saggy diaper, and nothing has been cleaned. Not to mention a meal is never made. Recently she found out she was pregnant, so her boyfriend moved in. They are going to start paying rent, but I don't know how much to ask for. I pay $1100 in bills/utilities a month, $600 for insurance and mortgage, and cover their cost of groceries. What sounds fair to you? How much should I pay her?

I'll start from the beginning. I really really hate school, like really badly and since yesterday, something clicked in me and I've been having a really bad temper. She made me go to school yesterday, and she also forced me to go to my schools guidance counselor which didn't really help except for the stress of going to class. Today, I wouldn't get out of bed, so my mom took my phone. She went to work and left my phone on the table, so I took it. Today, she FORCED me to go to counseling. I barely talked to the woman there, I didn't even say anything about my mom. So my mom starts screaming at me in the car, and when we get home I get out. My mom gets out grabs my purse, takes my phone. I ran inside and threw my purse on the ground. Then my mom followed me, so I picked up my purse, but she grabbed it, threw it, and slapped me. She keeps telling me how shes trying to "help" me. My parents are divorced and I live with my mom. Am I legally allowed to go live with my dad?? I told her to call 911 cause I'm not living with her anymore blah blah. I'm 13 by the way. I've been crying and I really need help. @Sarah how about no. I don't want your opinions about my dad not being a good parent. I want to know if I CAN LIVE WITH HIM LEGALLY? DO I HAVE A CHOICE? Not "He's not going to be any better", like i'm sorry if you dont have a dad, just answer my question. Also, I don't think it would make my life easier to live with my dad. I know he won't lose his temper and slap/hit me.

shes in good shape neighbors will have keys but I do live with her

Alright, can someone please explain me what's the story of Eminen's mom? why did she kick him outside the house, and why did she sue him for $10m? I know that I may be kind old, but honestly I am curious now, google ain't helping, and I've been trying to find out what happened to make his mom kick him and sue him for $10m, and then why'd he write her an apologize song after all that she's done?

Children turn out to be a lot better off if raised in one household with a mother and a father in a good relationship, it was like this for thousands of years and now it seems to be changing. Children of divorce and single mothers are a lot more likely to turn to drugs and crime.

My mother hasn't always been the nicest person. I'd go so far as to call her half demon. It started this morning with her coming home and whispering things to my sister about me, which i can assume are bad things. Because she loves to talk about me and all the other siblings behind out backs. So, i went out for a walk to ignore her, and i pause by the door to listen. She calls me very harsh words and says im useless and a dog would've been better then having me. So i lost it, opened the door and glared at her, letting her know i heard everything, which shocked her. I then go off on her and tell her that she's a shitty mother and that money doesn't mean you're raising your kids right. She then tells me to stop calling her mom, and calls me a prostitute because i have money, and no job. Im 17 btw, i earned the money through car washes me and my friends do. :/ she then wishes death upon me and tell me to move out and disappear. I then tell her **** you! My entire life has been like this. She torments me. Like when i was 14 and she told my sister's boyfriend to punch me in my face, which he did and left me bruised. She thinks just because she buys us stuff, it excuses her to say what she wants, when she wants. Im really depressed, I'm now questioning suicide. The person that birthed me into the world is my biggest bully. I just want some advice, pls help.

I sold his video game consoles, his laptop, and his phone because he doesn't need them and I need the money for my own reasons. When he found out he flipped out and started screaming at me, blaming me for selling his junk. He even blamed me for my husband leaving me, claiming that it's a certain habit of mine that I'm not comfortable sharing that caused him to leave me. I've been thinking of selling his laptop because I need more money to buy what I need for my own reasons. I meant i was thinking of selling his bed. I already sold his laptop.

So I was told by my parents that I have an egg doner. My real mother could not produce a proper egg. Therefore, I have the genes of my dad, who I currently know, and my "egg doner". So the other day I was wondering of there was anyway I could find her. I went on some websites to check out some info, but every doner that was being found had donated hundreds or thousands of eggs. My doner only donated mine, and then had one kid with their husband. Also, I asked my parents if the records in the hospital would say anything. Unfortunately, the hospital clears those records after seven years, and I am 14 so the records of my doner are gone. The only actual record that I have of my doner is a sheet of paper that has some of my doner s info such as, physical description (no picture), race, nationalities, and medical issues. I don t think it includes her name because she chose to remain anonymous. Lucky for me, my mom ended up losing the sheet of paper!! What luck. Haha. I am also an only child and I have always wanted a brother. It would be cool to know if I have a half-brother somewhere in the world. But if anyone has any suggestions about how I could find my doner or anything else related to this, please answer this question and help me out, I would really appreciate it. :) (don't get me wrong I love my mom and I'm not trying to find someone to replace her, I just thought it would be very interesting to know who I get my genes from.)

In 80 s there was one telefilm where the son who is brought up by his single mother suddenly finds out that his mother is getting married to someone who he starts hating, But then after sometime the mother suddenly dies and at her death bed she makes the son promise that he will stay happy with his new father. Gradually the son starts loving him and suddenly one day his biological father comes back and takes him away. Many years pass and the son now a grown up man comes back to his old house only to find his foster father waiting for him. Could anyone please tell what is the name of the story?

So i honestly hate my mom soo much! Seriously she gets mad at me for going to school.. she has no respect for me or my education, she dropped out of school and has a pissy 48,000 annual salary job. She has a boyfriend, and they made the rash decision to move out of state in about a month from now, simply cause when they vacationed there a month ago they enjoyed it. We've lived here for 7 years and i love it, part of band program. But she hates band, shes tried to make me quit numerous times and doesnt respect the program at all. She threatens me countless times, she says i "do whatever i want" simply because i walk to school to try and get an education. She says I'm selfish, when she's doing this whole thing with her boyfriend making us move away and this weekend I'm gonna miss a very important concert at school because she wants to go on a vacation this weekend (made this decision this morning). She has the NERVE to call me selfish, when she hasnt bought me new shoes in over a year (1 pair ) but she goes out shopping for herself every other weekend. She has tried to go back to college countless times, all times she just ends up not going and we end up in debt. She allows my sister to not go to school and has missed 34 days this year not school year, but this year! I just don't know what to do, i have walked home around 9-10 p.m. in night countless times because she says its not her responsibility to pico me up, because she wants to sleep.... i just dont know what to do. help

Lets just say its been a tough week for me and my family. We discovered that my father (Whom I see weekends) Kidnapped a girl 7 years ago (She was a girl in my class at school.She was 10) Anyway, he kept her locked up in his basement at his house (my brothers and I stayed in that house, we never heard a thing, all we knew is that we couldnt go down there because it was 'dangerous') He abused the girl, and she had a baby that was premature, it lived for 2 hours and he burried it in the garden) She hadn't been out of the basement for 7 years. He was found with drugs in his possession and the police searched his home, where they found her, skinny and afraid. Needless to say that I don't even know how to feel right now. I never dreamed of such a thing. I knew the girl as kids, and I just feel an enormous amount of pity for her. And the guilt i feel is unbearable. She lived beneath my feet as i played upstairs. I trusted my father. I just dont understand why he would kidnap and abuse a girl the same age as me. I dont get it. I cant accept it. I always knew he didnt cope well with the divorce from my mother, but I never expected this. How am i supposed to deal with this? How am I supposed to face people again when they know what my father did.my friend hates me. As for the girl, i dread to think how she is feeling. I want to go and hug her, but i feel like an abomination to her. It was my father. He did that to her. She gave birth to his baby, my sister. I just want to run away.

I'm 17.5 years old and 5'10-5'11, can I reach 6ft? My mom is 5'6 and my dad is 5'8. Moms brother is 6'0 and dads brother is 6'2. Moms parents are 5'6 and 5'7. Dads parents are 5'2 and 6'2. Will I be taller by 18-21?

So here is the deal. So my sister who is 15 got drunk last night and then she drank 2 doses of medicine. My mom told me and I was angry and furious. Who in the F-U-C-K-I-N-G HELL would do that? Pardon my language but she thought it was a good experience when I know that alcohol has a long term damage to your body if it persists? She did this a few times. The first time she drank was wine then it escalated to beer. A detail I forgot was that SHE SKIPPED SCHOOL TODAY BECAUSE SHE FELT LIKE IT.

I'm 16, and my mom can be very over bearing and hard to live with. Since I was a little girl, I've been taking her temper. She screams at me and hits me for nothing. She screams at me for even crying, or sneezing. One time, I was studying for a test, she came over and started watching me. It's not that I don't want her help in my studies, the problem is that she'll start hitting me if I get a question wrong. She stands behind me, and I got a few wrong. She loses her temper, and starts screaming mean things to me, then I start to cry. She hits me with a cane that left marks. That happened last year, her temper I still the same. I love her, but I'm terrified of her, do terrified that I won't even study in front of her. We just had an argument just now. Exams are right around the corner, so me and my friends decided we would have a study session, the library was closed so we decided to have it in a cafe. She said it was too noisy to study so she offered her office. After planning everything she said that she changed her mind, and not in a nice way too, which kind of pissed me off because it was last minute. We decided to go back to cafe, and for reason she got so mad and slapped me. She says that I'll probably talk more than study. What should I do? She never admits she's wrong, and sometimes, I think that maybe I really am wrong. Her temper is terrible I can't stand her anymore :(

so today at school I was at lunch and I took out my phone and I got all these text messages and they were from my mom telling me that she read my journal?!!!!

What do I do?? And I don't feel like talking to her about it also I'm just really upset and angry and I even had a breakdown because I was so angry please someone help?!

I just found out recently my husband cheated on me 6 years ago before we were married. We have been married for 5 years. I'm 27 and he's 28. I found out by snooping in his old emails. He had sex with 4 girls while we were dating 6 years ago. I know this was a long time ago but I'm just finding out. He hasn't done it since but I'm so hurt. I don't know how to feel about this. should I divorce him? Should I confront him or let it go?

Me and my mom got in a huge fight and I said some really disrespectful and hurtful things to her. As a result, she kicked me out. I am going to school fulltime and I have a car but no job, no money, and no friends. I have been sleeping in my car for two days. I went to the library and applied at a few places. I am kind of desperate. I don't know what to do. I want to move out on my own of course but I do not even know where to start, please help me

First of all I am a 15 year old girl. I am not skinny or slim , I'm also not fat. I am at a healthy weight , 58 kg. 1.70cm. My parents keep on calling me fat and make jokes around me like all the time! My dad makes fun of me, calling me names like a fat-*** ext. When we have guests I'm scared to eat 'too much' because he might embarrass me and say that I eat too much and that I am fat in front of everyone. It's extremely annoying and I get really upset because of it. I know I have to lose weight but still my dad and my mum make fun of me. NO one agrees with them . Like my grandma calls my parents idiots for saying that. Today I couldn't take it anymore. I screamed at my dad and my mum got really upset. She talked to my dad and said what he was doing was mean. HE stopped. Then started doing it again along with my mum. We got into an argument and they started screaming at me and I screamed back. WHen they said that I'm their child I said 'I WISH I WASN'T' My mum said she'll never forgive me for what I said and started crying. Now she's still crying and I'm trying to figure out what to do. Am I wrong? What should I do? Is it my fault? I'm not a barbie doll. I'm not perfect. Why can't they understand that? Thanks in advance...

So, I've always been really good with money. I kinda always have it. I also am really good at telling what's going to happen before it happens. And I find that just going with it usually works for me. I was just wondering about moving out. I'm sixteen, I was thinking of moving out when I'm eighteen or nineteen? My life isn't too bad. I'm going to pass the GED in the next year, and then work really hard to get more money. I kinda want to tour the world, and I know I'll always be able to return home to live. I was in LA a few weeks ago, and loved it! I was thinking of moving there. I also really love London and have gone as far as thinking of changing my nationality. Which wouldn't be anything extremely hard for me. (Not bragging, but I ain't dumb)! I also have thought about living with different relatives. But that thought isn't as great to me, as LA or London. I also love the idea of being self employed. Which isn't hard either. Both my parents are, and I make most of my money sell stuff. I don't really have a desire to go to college. Never really have. I'm like my mum, I can get what I want without college. Anyways, I was wondering if you had any advice? I'm a really hard worker, and I know when I can't handle something. =)

So we have to do a aquapark project in class. I teamed up and because of me being so trusty to others I gave 15 dollars for the project. So When I went home my mom was mad because I gave 15 dollars for something that costs 4 dollars to that asshole in class. (sorry for bad words) I dont know how much others gave. whatever she wanted me to get back that money. I went to him and I told him that I need the money back and in a offer for apology for not giving money I told him I can get the paper printed colorfully for free. But he said that its a aqua park and it would let through and he didnt give it to me. After that I tried to tell him that A 1.50m x 50cm x 3cm umm I dont know the word (its used for isolation on houses) costs 4 dollars but he told me he is going to buy higher quality one. Well there are no qualaties so he tried to trick me. I tried to find him because my mom told if he doesnt give the money till thursday he will have to take his dad and himself to school to speak with my mom. tomorrow I can either tell him for the school or for a special thing that is put on paper to make it waterproof for some time (yes we will put water). Otherwise if he says no to both he will have to go in school with his parent. Probably my class will hear all about this and Im afraid of how will they start thinking of me.. Even tho most girls dont like me already (because they think im weird) but thats a other story. I care for about how my friends will see me after all this Yes I know I have blame in this too but im so stressed.

Very complicated life of events ... I split from my children's father 2 years ago, he is an alcoholic. It was a bad break up, he was controlling and I suffered mental abuse, effecting me, my daughter and my son.I since then have met someone who I am very happy with, who I am engaged to, problem is he lives in America. I have applied to the courts for leave to remove, the first court date is very soon. My 10 year old son is excited by the proposed move and wants to just go now... But being refused by his dad I have to get the courts permission. My 18 year old daughter is totally against this, she has suffered from the breakup between me and her father, disowning him. She is receiving councilling which I set up for her, I have also helped her with doctors, money she can claim, and she has recently moved in with my sister as coping with everything is getting too much and we argue about my choice to want to move and have a better life. She says I cannot move away. She says if I do it will make her worse. I can't take her brother away from her. I'm a bad mum for even thinking of doing this. I don't have much family here, aunt, uncle, 2 sisters, and my 2 children. I feel guilty for wanting this for myself, my daughter is making me feel awful, if I were allowed, once there I've said she can join us but doesn't want to. Can I have peoples thoughts please.

Okay, so I'm the oldest and she's the middle child. She's always been the athletic popular one, and I'm the artsy kid that's academically successful. She treats me like crap all the time- constantly bragging about how she has more friends than me, etc. She also never shuts up about all the guys that flock around her, and then wants to act like no guy could ever like her. When I tell her she's not making sense, she just gets p i s s e d and storms up to her room. She never gets off her phone, is always acting like she knows more about life than I do [she doesn't], and treats me like I'm the one who's failing, when I'm the only kid in my whole goddamn family who's smart enough to go be a surgeon or something. She's failing her classes, and then acts like my mom is being a b*tch when she tells my sister that she needs to get her act together. Honestly, she so disrespectful to everyone, it's only getting worse, and I'm tired of her treating me like an imbecile or someone who doesn't know how to do anything. It's ruining my confidence because she berates me in my home,which is supposed to be your safe place, and in public.

I think my mother is dying.. shes 45, she's sick all the time, her back and bones hurt and go out all the time, she never poops, and when she does its just blood... she's always had constipation her whole life but the blood started 15 years ago.. its always bright red, and she does have hemorrhoids.. she REFUSES to go to the doctor because it cost way too much.. I don't understand why this is happening.. I'm 19 with an almost 3 year old son and have no way to cope alone.. I spend all my nights crying and this is ruining my life. She can't leave me and my sister with our physio father.. Please any advise on how I can take this.. I know shes dying.. she's ill, sick, weak, and just poops blood. Please help me...

My mother has left them with a lot of different people and completely ignores there needs over her boyfriend. She puts him first for everything. She is basically homeless and still puts him first. I have been taking great care of them. And they are doing better with me growing into young girls. My mother doesn't give me money and the money she is supposed to give me she lets her boyfriend spend it how should I go about getting custody of my sisters they deserve so much better. ??!! Any advice is greatly needed!

My parents lately have been fighting my mom hates how my dads been drinking.... I am only 12 and as a little kid i want my parents to be together and to create memories my little sis is 3 years old and i feel bad for her she's not really having fun she gets to watch my parents fight. How do I stop this divorce thing?

They are highly toxic and have made breaking up my marriage their only goal in life. I put up with it for many years but I'm done. My husband keeps trying to pressure me to be with them but I think it is about time that he takes care of his own relationship with his parents. He doesn't want to be with them so the way he deals with it is by forcing me to be with them so that he doesn't have to. My husband knows that if they are busy bullying me then he is left alone. I have told him that from now on he needs to get together with them without me but he tries to make me feel guilty about it. Help!

Theyve always done this. Im not even sure if anything I ever did was because I made the decision for myself but Im 21 and theyre still going behind my back and making decisions for me and Im sick of it. Everytime I try to tell them I dont wanna do something or I can do things myself, they still make threats to take things away from me. I know Im old enough to make decisions on my own but theyre not giving me any space or opportunity to and its stresses me out. How can stop this? Update: Yeah, Im still living at home. Im an only child. My parents made me stay on campus at college my first 3 years and since they never let me have a job, I don't have any substantial money of my own to move out. Thats my situation right now :/

Over the weekend, my wife and I got the wonderful news that we re expecting our second child. Although we will obviously be waiting to tell our extended family and friends for at least a few months, we would like to tell our parents this coming weekend-what a great Mother s Day gift that would be! The only problem is that, on Mother s Day, we re getting together with my wife s extended family in the morning, and then my extended family in the evening. We re also seeing my wife s mom (her dad is no longer with us) on Saturday night, however we ll still be with other extended family members at that time. What is a good way to be able to tell our parents without telling the rest of the family? If we ask our parents to, say, go into a different room to tell them, that will undoubtedly come off as suspicious to everyone else, and we really want to take our parents by surprise. Both sides of the family also like to open gifts in front of everyone (sigh), so writing it in a card will still produce a reaction by our parents, and will then draw attention. What s a good way to do this? Furthermore, what s a fun way to do it? We thought about writing it in a card, or maybe taking one of those photos you see all over Pinterest, although those are a bit overdone. Thanks!

before they divorced my dad cheated on my mom with her and they ended moving together, with her daughter. Me and my sister vist twice a month for the weekend. She was fine at first, but she was jobless, before they moved in together he was paying her rent. She doesn't have a job and just sits in the bed all day watching tv, and has sex with him all night. She doesn't wear her clothes, she is always in pjs and when she has to leave the room for like dinner and stuff she puts on my dad dirty sweat shirt that hasn't been washed for monthes, his dirty jeans and his shoes. She doesn't shower because she barely leaves the house, so she smells horrid, and she smokes weed and drinks beer and wine all day. She smells like a hobo, her hair is always a mess, she is always rude to everybody, just Sunday night, she cussed my dad out for not helping her find her keys, for the car she never drives. She talks to me And my sis like we are retards and Will yell at us for not going up stairs saying hi to her the second we step in the house and she makes my dad FORCE us to do it. My dad says she is annoying and he hates her drama and smart azz attitude, and the fact that she never showers or dresses in her own clothes unless we go somewhere with her. when she comes along with us, she wears the same out fit(army pants, sneakers, a black baggy tee shirt, and a baseball cap.) he said she was a freak in college. My dad is still cheating on her, and got caught twice but she is still with him.

Hi my dad is really annoying me right now and I just want him to go leave the house and just never come back ! He keeps annoying me he doesn't care about my education I get good grades when he use to sleep in work but when he came back my grades starting to go down when I revise hard for my exams he shouts at me and tells me not rest ok being a good father study all day then sleep I usually took 2 hours revising and then I'd take a break for 15 minutes to refresh my mind he would keep shouting while I'm studying like I don't know what's wrong with him he HITS MY MUM THEY FIGHT EVERYDAY when my dad came home from work he doesn't say hi he just comes in eats shouts throws things around then sleeps every single ******* day and when I'm sleeping he just bashes in my room and shouts telling me not to forget to pack my bed and my mum doesn't do anything about it please anyone help me I really had enough !

I m a 13 year old boy, and my parents have been fighting for as long as I remember. The fights are not very simple, they usually take about 2 weeks to a month to resolve. Recently, their fights have been getting worse, and late at night, I hear them in their room talking about divorce and talking about hate in quiet voices. Today, the fight made my mom leave the house for who knows how long, and my dad just slammed the door on his car, quickly driving off. After that, I had some thoughts and decided that after my sister leaves for college (in the summer), I need to keep my parents happy together. How do you suggest that/how can I cope with them like this? Thanks so much!

I moved back in with my mother and stepdad after living with my ex for over a year in a rented house. i have my cat here too and my partner stays here a lot as well Due to the fact that I am currently 3 months pregnant. my mother has always been a cool mum but i believe her husband is an asshole and he is sort of rubbing off on her. since ive had a job and lived here i paid 10 percent of my earnings as board. When my partner started living here too we paid 20 percent of my earnings as he was on apprentice wages and my pay changez alot Due to being casual. now my partner is earning about 600 a week and i earn 300 on average (goes from 200 to 400 based on hours). We were paying approx. 40-80 a week depending on my pay but now she is asking for 150 a week Because she thinks its fair. we have access to a 6m by 3m room in the shed. We eat 5 meals here from their food in total a week and have to share a bathroom with 2 others Noheating or cooling in the room. my partner works early hours and cant even go into the house to make a coffee in the morning because they complain they can hear it. i have found rooms for rent with ensuite and pet friendly for less than this amount. How can i tell my mother she is being unfair? Her financial burdens have recently gone up so i think this is a backlash on that. My partner and i will move out if she wants to force us to pay this much but i dont want to make her have to bring a stranger in to make ends meet. Im honestly not sure what to do.

I know she deserves something special the thing is i have no car to drive out and no credit card to buy her something online (my brother does but he isn't into the gift thing because he knows my mom doesn't want anything) & have it shipped here. i was just wondering on some ideas i could do. i mean i do have cash laying around but not a lot... My mom normally is the one to bring me places and she always needs to know where I am. What should I do? She always tells us she doesn't want anything but she does so much for us and I feel that just making her a card isn't a sufficient way of thanking her

My mom was born in a third world country, and for some reason has different birth dates. Like she says she was born may 3, but her birth certificate some reason says may 23. So every year we usually do whatever day she feels. This year however, she never mentioned it or anything. My sisters were like were celebrating it may 23. Now my mom starts crying telling us how nobody remembered her birthday, and I was trying to tell her we were gonna celebrate it on may 23, butnshes like no I wanted may 3, and now she thinks we hate her. What to do?

To give a little bit of a back story, I moved out a year before my mom and dad separated. There was no paper work and the two live in two different states. My brother (16) and sister (12) went to live with my mom. My mother has a long distance boyfriend, she's had multiple throughout my dad's marriage. Cool, whatever she's a piece of ****. Basically she up and moved, no warning, took the kids and bolted for the door. She lived with my grandparents, my grandmother being a senile old woman with dementia. Not only did my grandpa have to support his dying wife, but now his daughter and her two kids move in with him ALSO. As you can probably guess, there was a lot of complications, fights, and just all around discomfort with a family of 5 and two dogs living in a house meant for one old couple. Eventually she finally gets her **** together and moves into her own house. It's a lovely house. Perfect for them all. So this is where I come in, she needed me to baby sit my brother and sister while she went out of town for 10 days to a "business meeting". Only it's not really a business meeting. She's going off with her boyfriend. So I now have to lie to my dad, the one parents I actually respect, and tell him that she's not visiting a boyfriend, but in fact doing adult things and actually taking care of his kids. Now comes the bullsh** part. I drive 13 hours to get here, end up only getting 2 hours of sleep because my mom decides we're going grocery shopping. Cool whatever we need food for the week. We get there and all she fuxxing buys is a lawn mower. No food. I was too tired to argue so I just said whatever. Then I end up staying up the rest of the day and went to visit family. By the way, my mom has no furniture except for one bed for her. And another for my brother. One GIANT TV, two computers, and some bullshit expensive dinnerware. My dad gave her 5 grand to buy furniture for the kids. 5 FUXXING THOUSAND DOLLARS. She bought the spare bed from my aunt for $100, she TOOK the mattress that my grandpa was going to through out because my grandma peed and pooed all over and made my brother and sister sleep on that. She bought a fuxxing expensive *** flat screen and had it SHIPPED (shipping costs) to her house. So where is the rest of the, lets say, $4,000???? Oh I know. It all went to her plane tickets, hotels, food, clothing and everything else so she could visit her boyfriend. So moving along, the very next day after I got only 2 hours of sleep, we go to the grocery store again to buy groceries. The only catch is that I'M actually the one having to do all the shopping, she is off buying herself sexy panties and clothing for herself. I didn't even get everything I should have because I've never went grocery shopping for two kids before. Only myself and my husband and that's completely different when the kids are super picky and wont eat the stews and soups that I usually make. So whatever, I'll just go back out when I need something more. So here it is, 11:30pm by the time I finish putting all the groceries away BY MYSELF. She was off trying on all her other clothing complaining that she didn't have enough time to try them on at the store and certain clothings didn't fit her. THATS NOT MY ASLFDKJA FAULT. I eat food and around 1am she tells me her flight is at 7am THAT SAME MORNING. Wtf? First, it was on saturday, now it's friday. Then she tells me that she "forgot" to print out her tickets. She had an ENTIRE month to do this. and she's doing it 6 hours before her flight. So at 2 I finally fall asleep, at 3:45 she wakes me up to leave. In 48 hours I got 3 hours and 45 minutes of sleep. She is complaining about how tired SHE is... I drive her for 45 minutes and she has the audacity to tell me she thinks we're going to the wrong airport. At that moment I almost ran us off the road into a ditch I was so mad. Eventually we got there and I call my aunt for directions back. Our 1 hour drive was AT THE MOST supposed to be 25 minutes. This woman as been living here for 5 years and STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHERE SHE IS. To get to the airport you literally take ONE ROAD there. You do NOT take ANY turns at all. Whatever, so then I'm with my brother and sister alone and these children do not listen to a damm thing you tell them. They used to listen to my dad but now they are unruly, I mean my mom works all the time and then drinks in her room with the door shut the rest of the time. They are miserable here. They are neurotic. They have so much energy and boredom and neglect building up in them that they act out in the most questionable ways possible. One of those being this: They have a dog. Cool. Kids need a dog. They also let him sleep in their room, alright that's cool too. It's common for people to sleep in the same bed with their dog. However, I was looking through one of their tablets and found MULTIPLE links asking "HOW TO get your dog to mount you". Now I am a very open person and If you are curious about something, you do to the internet, If you want to jack off to some people doing some freaky stuff, that's your own business. But they were asking on multiple sites "how do you get your dog to mount you" "how do you have sex with your dog" "can I use peanut butter to get my dog to lick me" these are NOT things I want them doing to MY dog. I picked him out from the pound. That is MY baby and this is disgusting. They are children. I'm sure there are other things but right now I am just too pissed off to think. So on average, they will be around my mom for 5 hours a day. That's it. And she doesn't even parent them like she should. I asked my aunt what her opinion was and she thinks they need to be with my dad. Oh another thing, I've been noticing certain signs that she might be developing early signs of dementia like my grandmother (her mother). She forgets things that normal people shouldn't. When she plays with the dog she actually acts like a fuxxing dog. It's creepy on the highest level and normal people just don't do things like she does.I don't know. I need help. Ive told my dad everything and he doesn't want to start a war with her because if she wanted she could try to get full custody. He's trying to gauge the situation and see what he should do first.

I live with my brother and his fiancee. Let's say I had a weird life. I was abused by my parents and I lived in a foster home for a while. My foster parents were nice but couldn't adopt me. Anyway I w as using my brother's fiancee's computer yesterday and I see that her and my foster mom have been talking to each other. I looked n through and they had been talking for some time even before I knew I had a brother. In the emails I learned that my brother had been looking for his birth parents and she was crushed and didn't tell him that they were in jail. I also learned they sent my foster parents money to buy me clothes and things. I also learned the reason they didn't take me in right away was because they couldn't give me the attention k deserved at the time. I was pretty surprised to l earn this.

My parents are great parents, during the work days. but when weekend comes.. They go to night clubs every single Saturday, and sometimes they dont come home until the dawn breaks. A lot of times, they were too drunk to drive home and slept in a hotel instead. I hate it, when they come home smelling like alcohol. I dont like seeing them passing out in the living room. One time, my dad pissed in front of my door because he was that drunk. They are great parents but.. this is shameful. When I was younger, I didnt know my parents got drunk every weekend. I didnt know my siblings would stay up till 3AM, waiting for them. We were only 8, 10 and 11 years old respectively. *sigh*
