| Question: Should I stay with my family or go with my boyfriend? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 01:21 PM PDT So I'm a new college student and I am taking the necessities I need to transfer in 2 years. My goal is to go to ucsb to major in biology or maybe my pre-med still undecided. Anyways I want to go to Santa Barbra because my boyfriend lives there and we been having a long distance relationship for 4 years. We are both in love and we don't get to see each other often. He always visits me but it's still not enough. I live 4 hours away (San Francisco). The thing that I'm really worried about is my family. I really don't want to leave them behind my mom and I have such a great relationship and I don't want to break her heart. I don't want her to think I'm abondoning her for my boyfriend because I will never do that. I just want to finally be with him. I may even move back after. I tried talking to her about it and I tell her I might move far for college (I didn't tell her where yet) and she said "are you leaving me?" It makes me feel soooo guilty I don't know what to do. Any tips on what I should do? |
| Question: Teenage girls who can drive would you have done this? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 01:17 PM PDT I just got back from taking my sister to her friends house. Since it was about 90 degrees outside and I did not get out of my car and was only gone for about 20 minutes I drove in my bare feet and left my shoes at home. |
| Question: I'm 18 and my mom still controls everything I do? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 01:10 PM PDT Now I understand that because I still live in her house, I have to follow her rules. Obvious things like curfew, keeping my room clean, and telling her where I am are reasonable to me. But my mom takes all of this too far. She won't let me watch R-rated movies or M-rated shows. For example, I wanted to watch Orange is the New Black, and I thought for sure she would realize that I am 18 and should be able to watch what I want, so I asked her if I could watch it, just out of courtesy. She said flat out no, that it was too mature of content for me. I am 18 for god's sake-- an adult! Not only that but there was a senior party the other night that all of my friends were going to, on the night of my birthday I might add, and I told her where it was, who I would be staying with, and that I would keep her updated on where I was and what was going on. She told me I wasn't allowed to go and I had to come straight home. My curfew, I might add, is 10:00, which is the same as most freshman in high school. I am just so tired of her dictating my life. I have told her multiple times that this isnt going to help me later in life, like in college. If she can't let me choose to make the decisions I think are best for myself now, how will I learn in the future? I know so many people whose parents were crazy strict like my mom is who went to college and went insane with all the freedom they had. Hell, my brother did! I am a responsible girl-- straight A student, 33 on the ACT, president of many clubs, currently applying for jobs to save up for my own car. I just don't understand why she can't trust my own decision-making skills for myself. |

| Question: My dad never gets involved with doing things as family? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 12:57 PM PDT Where do I start? I feel as though my dad doesn't love me, my sisters or even my mum. I mean I know he does but he never gets involved with us and would rather go out drinking down the pub with his friends then go out or even just spend time as a family. As a result, my mum is under a lot of stress having to work and look after 3 kids, making her angry and unhappy all of the time. He would rather spend his money on beer, making him short tempered nearly all of the time which means he is constantly rude to my mum etc. To some extent I understand why he doesn't join in as a family and that's because we aren't a very close family but that's not an excuse to leave my mum looking after us every night, even when we were much younger. He is incredibly lazy and will ask me to get my sister a drink for example when I am upstairs and he is sitting in the room right next to the kitchen. He can also become physically abusive to me and my sisters, when we annoy him unintentionally, when he is angry to the point where isn't discipline. I can't remember the last time we did something as a real family, with no arguing etc. I just don't understand why he is like this. |
| Question: How to push my brother to study? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 12:51 PM PDT hey guys, I have this stupid 15 yrs old brother who thinks sleeping is more important that his test, he has a test the day after tomorrow he has definitely no idea about the subject, and he has to memorize like 100 of pages, so my throat hurts because I'm talking to him for about an hour but he does not listen to me there is a big chance that he fails and he did he has to do ninth grade again, please help me he is so stubborn, I'm more stressed over his test than he does , when I was his age I couldn't even sleep for 2 hours a night, just in order to finish my studying and hhere he is not even sudying for 2 hours he is that type of person who does not listen to anyone what to do |
| Question: I think my parents are gay.? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 12:23 PM PDT They are both men, They are not married, I was adopted by them at the age of 7. due to the fact that my real parents died. Here is how it goes: I am 15 years of age and have been raised by two men that are now in their late 20's. When my parents died I was given to Jerald ( who is my god father ) and he had a room mate, who'm is his best friend. Even after 8 years they are still living together ( and as I said they are in their late 20's which is still pretty young. I am starting to feel uncomfortable because they have been displaying signs of affection towards each other. My guardians are practically my best friends and I would just feel super uncomfortable if they hooked up. It's like I would become a third wheel of the household. |
| Question: My older brother hit me really hard? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 12:21 PM PDT my brother is 18 and im 15. So today my mom told my brother to give me $5 to go to the store and buy groceries. My brother asked me a few times over a span of a couple hours to go and I kept saying I would but I was resting on my bed. I walked out of my room and he groped me by my arms and pushed me back into my room because he wanted me to get the $5 and go but I said "stop manhandling me dont touch me" and at this point i was pushed onto my bed and he slapped me across my face and I put my legs up and started pushing him with my legs to defend myself and he grabbed me by the hair and pulled it. i cant stop crying because it hurt so bad. my parents arent home and i called my mom crying to tell her what happened and she was upset that we couldnt be civil while we were home alone and she told me "you two wait until your dad gets home" AND I WAS SO MAD BECAUSE I DIDNT EVEN DO ANYTHING. what do you think about this situation? |
| Question: 13 year old sent nudes? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 12:19 PM PDT yesterday,my husband and i were called into my 13 year old sons school to have this meeting with the parents of this other girl in my sons class.apparently,my son was sending her nudes without her consent and she was "traumatised" by it.the nudes were sent by text and were screenshoted by the girl,so there is definite evidence that they were sent.however,the girl deleted all messages before the incident and while she was with my son one day,deleted them all off his phone too so there is no evidence that she asked for them or that he sent them by force.they were "dating" for a small while.i know the girls family and i also know that she is a bit sly at times and tries to get people into trouble.im not sure whether to punish my son or not.he claims that she asked for them and it wasnt his fault.we have talked to him about this but he feels like he is a disappointment to us and is constantly feeling compared to his older siblings,his brother,who is captain of 3 sports teams,and his sister who is a straight A student.but he is good at other things too,and i dont want him to feel like he is being compared to anyone.i just dont know who to believe.the school are threatening to suspend him,but i dont think this is necessary yet.this is really stressing me out.help? |
| Question: My Dad Swears At Me All The Time?!? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:54 AM PDT What do I do? My dad always swears at me! He mostly swears at me cause I don't do work around the house. He won't even let me. I hate him right now. He thinks hes better than me but not really. |
| Question: My daughter and son-in-law don't allow me to see my grandchildren? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:48 AM PDT It's true that I distrusted him a lot at the beginning. Which mother wouldn't be worried if her only daughter's boyfriend has a jailbird for a father (he was jailed for domestic violence)? My daughter met him at the university, and I did some background check on his former high school, since a friend of mine is a staff there. He was a difficult pupil, but the bombshell is that he tried to commit suicide once by cutting his wrist. I had noticed it and he had lied to us, saying he caught a wire as a child. I did do some efforts to separate them and they broke up for several months before getting back together, and since then my daughter cut me off. When they graduated and had a job they wanted I congratulated them and said I was happy for them. However, I was not invited to their wedding (my husband, who's my daughter's stepdad, was invited). Now they have twins and they're cold each time I come to see them (which is rare, because I can't stand their treatment). Could someone tell me about grandparent's right? I'm so angry and sad at the same time! |
| Question: My dad beats my mom? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:37 AM PDT Last night my parents got into an argument about something over the phone. When my dad came home from work, they both ignored each other all day. Today my dad brought someone over to our house to fix our air conditioner, my mom just asked him what he did to fix it, but my dad said "leave me the **** alone" and she kept asking what happened until my dad lost it and came after her and started hitting her right in front of me and my little sister. (I'm only 15 about to turn 16 and my sister is about to turn 13). I wanted to stand up and yell at my dad and tell him to stop hitting her but I knew if I did that he would prob hit me too. After all that my dad is locked in his room right now and my mom got me and my little sister to a room together and she's asking me what we want, like if we should leave forever. I honestly want my parents to get a divorce because I'm sick and tired of my dad treating my mom this way and us. He has anger issues and he tends to get angry easily so I don't know what to do. My mom said she wants to move back to California with her family but she said the only thing that's stopping her is us, that she wouldn't want us to leave our friends from school and to start over. Please help , what should we do, cause all I want is this abuse to stop, I honestly think my dad will end up killing my mom one day. Please help. |
| Question: What are some reasons not to have children? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:20 AM PDT I love reading the works of anti-natalists. It seems they were so sympathetic towards suffering and did not want any child brought into a world like this. Can you add, why it's best to not have children, what precautions can be taken to avoid it and of adoption is better? |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:16 AM PDT I was grounded and she took it too far. When I was kicked out, I went to my grandmother s because it was nearly midnight. Now, she is threatening to call the police because my grandmother is "manipulating" me. I have fallen victim to physical and mental abuse, abandonment, and manipulation. What should I do? |
| Question: Will my mom go to jail, and if so who will I live with? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 11:13 AM PDT I am 13 about to turn 14. My mom has a ticket that she hasn't paid yet from a few months ago and I am worried. If she goes to jail can my dad get custody or can I live with my 23 year old brother. My dad doesn't have any custody since he used to beat up my mom and brother when we lived with him until I was around 2 when we left him. Will I have a choice of who to live with and if not, if I tell the judge what my dad used to do will they allow me to live with my brother? My sister currently lives with my brother so she can go to high school, I am in online school. |
| Question: My parents are making me go to church and I'm not one of "faith".? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:52 AM PDT I'm 24 years old and I recently broke up with my longtime boyfriend. This forced me to move into my parents house. I don't have a job, so I spend most of my days doing chores around the house and looking for a job. I'm very grateful my parents let me move back in, but I just found out they plan on making me go to church every Sunday with them. I don't really believe in god or anything else, so I'm not exactly comfortable with spending 2 hours sitting through a lecture on something I don't believe in. My dad says since I'm living under his roof, one of the rules is I go to church. That makes me angry and uncomfortable. Any advice on how I can calmly and rationally tell him that him forcing me to do this is wrong? |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:49 AM PDT To give a brief story I'm 27 and live at home with my father, my mother is deceased. My boyfriend just proposed to me after only dating for 4 months but we are not getting married right away. We know we are right for each other so why wait? I'm abit nervous telling my father because he never wanted to meet my fiance due to cultural differences and I really don't want us to get into a fight or anything so I want to keep it on the low and not only that we only dated for a few months so I'm nervous how he'll react. Please be kind and give me some advice. |
| Question: My brother is a loser? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:47 AM PDT I am the youngest of my three sisters who have very successful lives . I am 19 and my brother is 15 but he is fat , his grades are BAD mostly D and C , he is VERY rude, what's even worse that he is a porn addict , locking himself in and watching porn the whole day , he have no friends and barely goes out . It's very difficult for me to write this and I am so sad but I really can't help him though I tried to talk to him and make watch guiding videos he was once forced to go to a psychologist but he got all pissed and angry after he talked individually to him and swore that he would never go back there ever again . I had to literally forced him to apologize to my mum when he spat on her . I have no idea what can I do. The worst part is he started smoking secretly !!! He is going downhill and I can see it coming , it's shocking to say that it's fine now compared to what all my family can clearly see where he is heading though we are all denying it and believing maybe a miracle would happen one day somehow... Please help me please I am desperate... |
| Question: Am I being emotionally abused? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:45 AM PDT for the past year, I've felt abused by my family (mainly my dad). I am usually a straight A student in school, but that's not good enough. he always checks my grades every night and calls me in to yell at me about them. He yells at me constantly and whenever I try to defend myself or I don't want to do something he threatens to take everything I love away from me. he yells at me when we go out in public, telling me I shouldn't have come. he yells pretty loud and embarrasses me to no end. Parents and other people will look at us and I feel so terrible about myself. I used to weight a lot and he would constantly remind me I was fat and make me feel terrible about how I looked to where I had an eating disorder for five months. it was not only him that made me feel bad, but he made me feel like crap all the same. even now that I've lost a lot of weight he yells at me for what I eat and constantly reminds me about every single thing I want to eat. my mom just sits there and let's him go on. She too makes me feel like crap. She always does things for my brother but would never consider doing anything for me. I'm stuck with the same things every year while she buys brand new things for him and loves all on him my brother also threatens me. he told me the other day that he would throw me to the ground and kick me till there was blood, and my mother laughed. he also hits me when I make him upset. am I being emotionally abused or just overreacting? if so what do I do? |
| Question: How can I stop visitation with my dad? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:38 AM PDT I m 14 years old and I live in Utah. My parents separated about 2-3 years ago and divorced 1-2 years ago. Every Thursday night I have to stay at my dads as well as every other weekend. I ve wanted to stop visiting for over a year because I can t stand spend any time with him or at his house. He is always calling my mom and stepdad rude names and talking about all the "horrible" things they ve done to him. He really doesn t seem to care about me. Since visiting him My mental health has gotten a lot worse, and I know if I didn t have to go to his house my life would improve a lot. We ve tried talking to a counselor and going to court before but nothing has helped so far and I don t know what to do. My dad is aware that I don t want to visit him. I know I could refuse to visit him, but I m afraid that might just cause problems for my mom. Since visiting my dad I started cutting, and I think I have depression and social anxiety however I haven t talked to anyone about this because I don t want my mom to be worried about me anymore than she already is. Any advice you have would help. |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:35 AM PDT She is my older sister and ever since she comes home from university is gain support from my parents no one ever listens to me I hope she dies and I have been hoping this ever since the age of 8 she always controls me and tells me what to wear like if I'm wearing a perfectly well outfit she will change that completely to make it her own I truly hate her she gains my parents attention by crying to them saying how unreasonable I am and my dad he says I dress like a poor beggar for years I have felt horrible and self conscious but I like what I wear if I took a shower yesterday she will comment to me the next day saying your hair is so greasy you should take a shower and I don't have the courage to say no to her but I did today and whenever she comes back she eats almost everything like a pig and when I told her this today then she starts saying I'm ashamed of you saying that I eat your food and make you wear proper clothing and I have taken you out so many times... I think to that and my hatred for her grows does she not understand that she has been controlling and greedy does no one understand that they lowered my self confidence and how I think of myself I really hate my sister and I would appreciate your support |
| Question: Why does my feelings get hurt easily? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:34 AM PDT Whenever someone says something I get sad. I doesn't have to be much. How do I be more tough? |
| Question: I don't even know whats going on anymore? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:32 AM PDT So I'm a 14 year old girl and next year I go to highschool. But I have like this half depressed half idfk what to do with life feeling. I stay home all the time because my mom works and I need to watch my brothers. I only have 2 friends and only one of them texts me and when she does its always about her bf and it gets so annoying to the point where I hardly even text her anymore. today I had a fight with my mom because I was tired of being home all the time and we had DCS probs so she yelled at me and said "WELL FINE I WILL JUST TELL DCS TO TAKE YOU GUYS AT LEAST YOU WILL BE HAPPY" but that wouldn't make me happy it would just make me feels worse and I don't even know how I feel anymore. I want out of the house but I can't and every time I try to find out a way for me to be out of the house somebody comes andscrews it up somehow and I blow up on them and spend the next 7 days in NY room away from people. I don't self harm but I have come pretty close a couple times but I don't I just sit there and think about how much I hate pain until the idea of self harming just leaves my mind. What is going on? Is this feeling even normal? |
| Question: How do I stop being pessimistic and stop hating my life? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 10:16 AM PDT I am a 21 year old guy and I have noticed that I am being more pessimistic and hating my life. Do not get me wrong I really love my dad but sometimes we just can't get along with each other because he compares me to my other siblings and to other people. Like yesterday my dad told my best friend's dad at least your sons work and mine just plays on his tablet all day. That really hurt because he is making it seem like I am lazy when I am not. I really do love my dad because my dad is from Mexico and I am glad he came to the United States to give me a better life. My dad is a really hard worker and he feels that I am wasting my time going to college. He thinks I do not study and I waste my time all day and the computer when that is not true. My older brother is Autistic and sometimes I get jealous of my best friend because he has a normal family with a normal sibling relationship while I don't know if my brother will through a temper tantrum. I also get leaous of my best friend because my dad feels that he fits the macho hispanic man. He takes care of his stuff and works hard and he gets all the girls because he is 6'4 and good looking and has a good physiqueand he is also the eldest son in his family while I am short 5'4 fat and have average looks and I have never had a girlfriend. I sometimes wish I were my best friend so that way I will not here crap from my dad. |

| Question: My parents are splitting up and I want to go with my mom? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 09:26 AM PDT Ok, so my parents are splitting because my dad thinks my mom is holding me back but honestly he's the bad parent because he's never home to teach me any life skills, he just blames it on my mom, he's one of those guys where what he says is always right.

| Question: How to say thank you for a card? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 09:20 AM PDT I just got a card in the mail from my aunt for my high school graduation. I want to thank her, but I really don t like calling people because I never know what to say after saying thank you. We aren t very close either. I do have her cell phone number though. Would it be rude to text her thank you? Or do people usually send thank you cards? |
| Question: Am I being unreasonable for not wanting to give my room up for a visitor? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 09:14 AM PDT I pay rent to my mother. We are practically roommates. Between her, my brother, and I everything is split evenly. My nephew is currently staying with us. His father is coming to visit for a week. My mom asks me to give up my room and I say no. I pay bills, and my nephews father has been beyond rude. So my mom then DEMANDS I should give up my room, and I still say no. I can t have my own privacy? Then she tells me I shouldn t eat any of the food she bought, and even comes in my room about a little can of coke. Telling I owe her for storage bc I have some things in there, and shes going back to calculate all the groceries she purchased to charge me. Just being horrible. She only wants to be a mother when it is convenient for her. She treats me like a roommate any other day but other days when she doesn t get way she wants to be a mother. I would so move out. But living here is a lot cheaper than other places and room for rent I have seen. Am I being unreasonable? Everyone pays for rent, except for my dad. My mom babies him so ******* much it annoys me.

| Question: Why is my brother like this? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 09:05 AM PDT Gosh! I do not even know where to start. Firstly, let's put out the fact that he is TWENTY-TWO YEARS OLD! He will be twenty-three in August. I am a sixteen year old girl, and my family is just getting by. I had to get a job to take care of myself, because my mother had a stroke. Due to that, she is unable to take care of me. My grand mother is elderly, and my older sister is just getting by. My brother went to jail in 2011 for robbing someone. He just came home four months ago. For some reason, he believes that we owe him. HE DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE NOT RICH! He will NOT get a job! He ran away from the half-way, but still will not go get a job. The only thing that he wants to do is go to the studio, because he is an aspiring rapper. He just will not grow up. We tell him to get a job. He just says, "Man, y'all don't understand. It is hard out here." He also received his GED in prison, but he won't take it to do something positive. He feel as though he will get signed in the near future. What should we do? He is a grown man. He is also sounding pathetic, begging for money, and complaining. He owe the entire family money. The only reason we have it to him is because, we thought that he was using it to better himself. He is nothing but an USER. He owes me $117, already. Can I please have some advise? He need to grown up and be a man! What "man" calls the women in his family complaining about being hungry, needing shoes, needing clothes, etc? Please help! |
| Question: Parents aren't home?? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 09:03 AM PDT Both my parents are out of town and for a few hours I just realized I'm home alone with my 13 year old brother who won't wake up out of bed and I don't know what to do to pass the time. What do I do??? |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:56 AM PDT so my little brother is 9, almost 10 and I'm 21 (I know huge age gap) But he was in the hospital, he had a hard time standing and walking so I carried him inside where my mom said lets take him to the hospital while we were there, he was crying for me and he called me crying (I had to go somewhere) and he was crying saying he wants me there because he was scared... I thought he wouldn't be scared.. but when I got there he sat up and hugged me and he was able to leave 1 hour ago but he sat on my lap when he was being told what was going on with him, then I got up and he jumped on my back because he wanted me to carry him when we were walking home I carried him for 30 minutes I didn't realize that he was asleep on me when we got home all I knew is he rested his head on my shoulder but he wasn't sleeping then I put him down at home and he moved onto my lap and called me mommy..... he never acted like this any other time..... I know he really loves me but this is a new thing that's been going on.... I'm really worried that he may start wanting me to do this so much but I think he also just misses me whenever I'm gone.... I don't live with them I live 10 minutes away and my mom is always making him do stuff and all I know is that he always wants me to come over... I do usually or I try to when he calls but yeah I try... I'm just worried about him, we have no dad and I always took care of him when he was little could it be that? Thanks for reading this!! Sorry it's long!!! |
| Question: Hey guys. Any advise? Regarding family relationship..? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:54 AM PDT My friend recently told me that she wanted to fix the relationship between her family because all her family members are really busy with their work and that's why their relationship gone cold.. |
| Question: Guys, is this a good Father's Day gift? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:52 AM PDT Hi guys, I just wanted a guys perspective of whether or not these are good gifts for Father's Day or not. I got my guy a book about how important a Dad is in a daughters life(We are expecting come this October). The book has these topics: the essential virtues of strong fathers–and how to develop them • the cues daughters take from their dads on everything from self-respect to drugs, alcohol, and sex • the truth about ground rules (girls do want them, despite their protests) • the importance of becoming a hero to your daughter • the biggest mistake a dad can make–and the ramifications • the fact that girls actually depend on their dads' guidance into adulthood • steps fathers can follow to help daughters avoid disastrous decisions and mistakes • ways in which a father's faith–or lack thereof–will influence his daughter • essential communication strategies for different stages of a girl's life • true stories of "prodigal daughters"–and how their fathers helped to bring them back And I also am doing something else for him that I think he will like. He's mentioned lately that he wants more pictures of his kids so I'm taking the kids to a photo shoot out by the river today. They'll get their pictures taken and we will also incorporate the baby in my tummy as well. |
| Question: What did I do wrong? I'm 18.? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:46 AM PDT Yesterday I was playing my ps4 and I got hungry so I told my gf to go make me a pizza. She wouldn't do it and said that I could do it myself. I didn't want to get up at all because I was enjoying gta 5 so I told her to quit talking and just make it for me. She gets all mad and gets a frozen pizza out of the freezer and tosses it at me and tells me to eat it. This pissed me off because I just wanted some food. So I threw it in her direction and told her to cook it. Then she yells at me and yanks my ps4 off the power cord and tells me to say goodbye to it. Next thing I know her mom calls me and tells me I'm not respecting her daughter. Don't really understand why my gf reacted like this? All I told her to do was make me a pizza..... |
| Question: Do I have to go to my dads house anymore? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:44 AM PDT I m 13, and every other weekend I have to visit my dad.

| Question: My daughter ran away with her first boyfriend 7 months a go, what do I do? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:43 AM PDT I've tried to be patient for the last 7 months. I tried to contact her through cards and letters for a little while but then gave up when I didn't hear anything back from her. She ran away to be with her boyfriend after she got caught lying over and over. All she did from the begining was lie and manipulate everyone. She didn't want to get a job and was told if she didn't have one by a certain date she wasn't aloud to do anything until she got a job except go to school. She is now 19 years old she was 18 when she left. Her boyfriends family let her move in with them, the parents will not and have never talked to me. They told his parents that I beat her and abuse her. What hurts the most is that she wrote off her 3 year old sister. Hasn't tried to contact her. I was a single mom to her all her life, we were everything to each other. I don't understand how she can let a boy destroy everything we had. Please help. I think about here every day and hope it's the day she will be home. I'm trying to let her see this through and hoping she will be back one day. I hope she has the strength to come to me. She is shy and stubborn. |
| Question: Is my husband being unreasonable? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:41 AM PDT My company is being taken over by another company and they notified us that our department was being eliminated. This will put 11 women out of work. The new company offered us a new position with higher pay if we complete a training course. They found an employee, Bob to give us this training at no cost to us. We take 4 hours of training each Saturday morning. Bob is 25, single and a great looking guy and a great guy to give us his time to train us. He is not getting paid to do this training. All 11 of us gals have called him after work or after class to ask for help and he is always available to help us when we need help. We all thought the least we could do to repay his kindness was to take him to lunch after class. When I told my husband about this he had a fit. He said he did not want his wife taking a single guy to lunch. When I pointed out to him that there would be 10 other women at the lunch AND he could come if he wanted to but it did not solve his problem. Gals, what do you think. Is my husband being unreasonable? All of the other women's husbands or boyfriends don't have a problem with this. In fact they are grateful to Bob for saving our jobs. I will really look ungrateful for all of Bob's help if I don't go. What should I do? |
| Question: Do you think it's fair for my mom to do this to me? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:39 AM PDT My mom is mean to me all the time. She treats my sisters better than me. My mom and my sisters talk trash about me, like I don't hear them. My mom is very verbally abusive, and sometimes physically. Recently, she slapped me in the stomach for not answering my sister. My mom has had DFCS called on her 2 times. One when I was younger, she beat me badly(to the point where I had bruises and belt marks all over my body). The second time which was recently, because of the way she was treating me, and she slithered her way out of that situation. She lied to the social worker and said she doesn't beat my sisters. She made my sisters lie to the social worker and tell her that my mom doesn't beat them. My mom does beat us and that is a fact. She chopped my sister in the face with a belt last summer. She slapped me in the stomach. She beat my other sister. Then, my three year old sister, she pops her and chops her with flip flops. I'm the only child that does real chores. My other 2 sisters( they are 11 and 9) are old enough to do chores and they do nothing. I wash dishes. I'm tired of being the only one to do the dishes everyday. And yes, i'm the only one that does dishes. My mom is slick,she talks bad about me to her friends. Then she says i'm grown, and I do act grown because i'm standing up for myself because she thinks i'm a slave. She even told me that I am a slave, and that's what i'm here to do. I remember one summer she made me do all of her math college course test. She's mean |
| Question: How would you handle this? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:37 AM PDT Sorry I rewrote this again but I forgot something. OK what I about to tell you is true. Here's the story about 10 years ago I was around 4 or 5. I was going to give my sister Jenna a bday gift so I walked in her room and found her hanging dead and later on I learn she killed her self because of her being bullied at school (physically and emotionally) it wasn't just by students but also by 2 of her teachers. Also she was cyberbullied by the same people because of who she liked and because of my mom had been raped when she got pregnant with my sister. After my sister committed suicide we we're all in grief but eventually we could handle it appropriately. But I learned my mom wasn't handling it well she said it was all her fault and about 8 months after my sisters death my mom decided to go down to the local community bridge and jumb off. That day was my hardest day to learn in just one year my mom and my sister both committed suicide. Tell me how would you deal with this if this was you. My sister committed suicide when she was 14 and my mom committed suicide when she was 30. Rip Jenna Clarke and Jennifer Clarke. Also I have the two teachers who harassed my sister. I had them last year and will have them this coming year the only reason I have them is because they are the only honors phyics and honors chemistry teachers at the school. Also why they didn't get fired is because my parents didn't want my sisters death to be worse then it was. Today is my sisters bday the. |

| Question: When was Prince William born? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:22 AM PDT |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 08:09 AM PDT I am going to cut to the chase. Through my teen years, I was awful to her and gave her no reason to want to be my friend but not that I am older I want her to be able to trust me and come to me when she needs to talk. A while ago, last fall maybe, I was trying to get close with her. I worked at a diner where her old friend's grandmother (friend lived w/grandparents) owned so I saw the friend often. She told me things about my sis that I was shocked to believe, and one of them was that she cut herself. fast forward when I tried talking to her about it (I didn't jump right into it, but worked my way into the question) She showed me her arms and there weren't scars and even though she denied doing so, I felt she wasn't being honest, but chose to let it go. (She would come to me when she wanted to talk, I figured). Just last night we had another conversation and she opened up more to me, revealing that the scars on her arms are there but in certain light only, and she did that on her legs now. I think she needs help badly, but if I tell someone I will throw away any chance of her trusting me again. I know what it is like to be a teen and feel like you can talk to no body, and how hard it is to open up to someone. I am glad she told me but I just don't know what to do because if I tell someone she may never trust me again and after working so hard, but if I don't tell anyone I can't help but worry. Help me, Please. a -She says she has been doing this for 5 years off and on (Meaning she would stop for a month, start again for several months) I don't know if it will stop itself. I am terribly worried because it has gone on for this long. She is only 14, so young. She explained to me that people at school started seeing them and would make fun of her for doing it (Which is why she stopped on her arm) and she eventually became homeschooled because of them. I can tell she is lonely but won't go back to school |
| Question: I'm a young adult on my dad's insurance--will he find out about my recent hospital visit? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:34 AM PDT I recently was taken to the hospital in an ambulance after I had a severe panic attack after (stupidly) eating a large dose of marjuana. I have severe anxiety problems, and when the medics got there my heartrate was 150, BP was 180/95 and I needed oxygen--since I was alone, they encouraged riding along to the hospital. Anyway, I'm 24 and still on my parents' insurance. My question is, will my parents have to find out about this, and if so, when? For obvious reasons, I'd rather them not find out. I gave the hospital my own address so I'm thinking the bills will be sent to me, and I'll be paying them. Will my dad (who is the primary insurance holder) be notified in any way? I'd much rather just learn my lesson and move on without having to explain everything to them. Thanks! |

| Question: Will my mom be able have access my internet history and messages on my iphone ? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:20 AM PDT This morning my mom and I got in a fight about my phone, she has this rule that it needs to be in her room at night because she doesn't want me on it at night. I am 16, i think this rule is ridiculous, but last night i snuck it and fell asleep so i forgot to put it back in her room. She came in my room and took it back and is now very suspicious of what I have been doing on my phone. I have looked up some things on safari on my phone that she would definitely not be proud of..and she is very strict. She said I am not getting my phone back untilher and I go to the AT&T store later today and find out whats going on. I am really scared, my phone is under my mom's account but my dad pays for the phone. Can the AT&T people look up my internet history and will it tell them what sites ive been on and will they have the right to tell her? I don't know the AT&T rules but i am freaking out and just don't want any surprises when I get there, thankyou |
| Question: My kid brother's in laws get drunk around his 2 week old? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:19 AM PDT My younger brother has been with his wife since they were 13 & 15, they got married two years ago and just had a baby two weeks ago. My mom and dad raised us in a house that was laid back, but also taught us right from wrong. There was never any alcohol in the house, my dad smoked outside and no one ever really cursed. The worst thing tht happened was on the non paycheck week (because there were 6 of us, plus bills, food, gas, etc) my mother occasionally had to put something in the pawn shop for a few days to get a few bucks for milk or gas or something we needed. She always went and paid for an picked up the item. It was a desperate measure but one that was a blessing. Here recently that has been thrown up in her face by bro's mother in law. There was an argument, not a very heated one, and the first thing out of her mouth was 'why don't you go hang out in a pawn shop'. This devastated my mom, all she ever did was try to make sure us kids were fed, clothed, and taken care of. Now that the baby is here we have seen her twice. Once at the hospital when born and once at their home. We were ostracized by her folks & the MIL and wife texted back an forth the whole time. Which of course would lead you to believe it was about us. There is now photographic evidence that my bro's father in law holds the two week old poolside while drinking beer after beer. He was in the military and now is very controlling and drinks constantly. Now that this has been brought up, he has cut us off. |
| Question: I just want to run away? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:16 AM PDT Why do I need a home? Why do I need to see other people? Why do I need a family to force me to things I absolutly hate? Why do I need to be infected with carcinogenic estrogenic chemicals the EPA lets slide? Why do I need to have a car? Why do I have to live in Wisconsin? Why do I have to School? Im 16 im not depressed I just angry at my family because they tell me what to do and eat. The thing is I realized the onlu thing that can make me upset is other people. I just want to walk all the way to Nevada and hike and pray and eat and maybe make a little money here and there maybe buysome sort of small shelter. Thats it. I dont want to waste another 6 years in school just so u can get a "good" job sitting at a stupid desk all day or so I can buy some stupid home. Does anyone else have this feeling or am I crazy? The only thing stopping me is im underage and need a hs diploma to join the AF if I stick to that. |
| Question: I have an abusive dad..? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:11 AM PDT He has an injury and ever since then he has been very abusive. He swears at me, my brother and my grandma and he just hit me. I want to run away, I need help. |
| Question: Does my dad care about me and my sisters? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:03 AM PDT i'm 15 years old. i live with two younger sisters, our pets and my parents. the only thing that may dad does is eating, sleeping, peeing, pooping, working, hanging on his pc and working on his hobby. My mom does everything for me, my sisters and our home (with a little help from me and my sisters). My dad does never listen to me and he acts like i do not exist or at least that is how i feel. He can spend some time with mom alone but he does never do anything with me and my sisters. my dad can just be like a stranger to me, i know his siblings and his parents but i don't know him. My mom is awesome and she loves me and my sisters with all of her heart but she doesn't always seems like loving us when she is with my dad. |
| Question: Dealing With Gossipy Cousin- Help Needed? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 07:02 AM PDT My question: I want to date, the problem is that my cousin is so judgemental and will immediately tell her parents and my parents. In high school, it's okay to experiment and date a lot of girls, but if I show any interest she rats me out and embarrasses me. For example, at one of our school dances, a few girls asked to dance with me, so I said yes. And of course, the first words out of my moms mouth were, "I saw the pictures of you dancing with girls!" She sent PICTURES!!! PICTURES!!! And apparently she told my mom that those girls were "snooty and ugly." I haven't dated one girl yet in high school, and I'm approaching my junior year, out of fear of the opinion she'd give to my family. What can I do about this? Should I confront her? The problem with confrontation is that she claims to have "extreme anxiety" and has had mental breakdowns in the past. I don't want to cause one and become the bad guy. Should I tell my parents? I don't even know what I'd say. And I know you guys will probably tell me to not care and do what I want, but it is just hard to do something when your family and supposed best friend since birth (my cousin) is against it. |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 06:56 AM PDT I'm not sure how to organize this so it's easy to understand, I'll try my best. From age 9-14, my father would put me in bad situations - like putting me in the middle of his & my step moms arguements (which were pure yelling & bullying) & even taking me out late hours of the night for a drive, against my will. I would try to tell him no but he wouldn't have it. I am turning 19 on fathers day (hahaha I know) & I am still terrified to even think about him. Just thinking about being around him gives me an anxiety attack. My fingers are shaking as I type this. My dad, he was sexually abused as a child & has recently had a mental breakdown from it (January). He was better for awhile until my step mom (who I ADORE) text me now asking me to talk to him again & hangout with him on Father's day. She says he is getting worse. He was hallucinating during his breakdown, always thinking the FBI was after him. Tina (my step mom) says he is starting to act that way again. What should I do?? I want to vomit just thinking about talking to him, but he is so F*CKING dependent on me because he is a f*cking child! I am so scared & don't know what I need to do. Any advice? Thank you. |

| Question: My sister has no respect for me? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 06:53 AM PDT My sister is 4 years younger than me, I'm 18 and she is 14. But my sister always tells me to shut up and that no one cares whenever I try to defend myself. Usually are augments are over petty things, but when she tells me to shut up and I tell her that we should have a mutual respect for each other (even though she's younger), she'll just swear or go off in a strop and my parents don't care. What can I do to make her listen to me and respect me a little more? |

| Question: I cant handle my daughter? Posted: 13 Jun 2015 06:47 AM PDT my oldest daughter has Boarderline personality disorder. It's hard to deal with someone with this disorder & I'm not sure how to. She's getting treatment but it's not helping at all. Today, we had spoken about going to pick up her bridesmaid dress for her cousins wedding. She wanted me to go get it with her and I had agreed. I flipped out unintentionally & said "Why is it your younger sister can do everything herself?! She went, picked up the dress, and didn't bother anyone about it! You need someone to hold your hand 24/7 like a baby." She said "this is why I chose to live 16 hours away from home because you constantly make me feel invalidated & like I'm a burden." Then, she stormed off got in her car & left & now won't answer my calls. I feel terrible. What do I do? Was I wrong?? |
| Posted: 13 Jun 2015 06:40 AM PDT My brother has anger issues, and he can never let things go. He flip on people when they do small thins. He was suspended 8 times from public school, than expelled, and sent him to a school for troubled kids. He got kicked out of that 4 "choking a teacher". Then he went to a small asylum for 2 weeks. Was better when he came back, then things went back to "normal" He'a 16 years old he smokes pot, drinks alchohol, and does many bad things. The state did this thing where he has to be home by 9 or the cops go to look for him. That keeps him inside but doesn't stop the pain he puts us through. This morning he got fired up & started cursing to himself bec his lifeproof case broke (It was an accident, I got done cleaning all the house, and put his stuff on his bed) he got really mad screaming "whot tf did this" and "don't touch my s***". Well my mom had ro come to the steps, and they had a screaming battle. She said "there's no reason for you to go ape it's just a phone case" he says "it's my phonecase they not gonna f***** pay for" "she says i'm the queen bee in this house, you're 16...16" then he kept saying "true.....truw.....true...i'll shut the h*** up cause you obviously want me to. You never should've had me." I'm a 13 yr old girl, my mom has high blood pressure. stuff like this could kill her, and she's only 38! Just hearing the argument worries me. If there's ever an argument I think she can't handle, should I go in place of her? Please help. |
