Okay, so one day I saw a big black book on my shelf that I'd never seen before, and I looked inside and saw that it was a diary, but some pages were ripped out and there was no writing in it. Also on the first page it said "This journal belongs to: (my sister's name)" and her name was scribbled out. I really like this journal. It has a ton of pages, and it's lined. I want to write in the journal but I feel guilty for having my sister's journal, even though she basically gave it to me... Also, I'm pretty young, so I can't go out by myself to get a new journal., even though i want one. The only time i can get a journal is the school christmas program, where they sell stuff for christmas, and there's journals and diaries. But it's july, and christmas is so far away! What should I do? I don't have any notebooks, and I feel guilty for having my sister's diary. :(

every single day she yells at me. today I was in the kitchen with my grandma and my older sister and then I was messing around by the sink pretending I was going to spray my grandma with water. my grandma ays stop and I stopped before she even said it. then my mom ask me if I needed to go to my room and I said no normal. then she said WATCH YOUR TONE and I said what did I even do. then she told me to go to my room. I then said well can I atleast finish my icecream so it doesn't go to waste then she said no. so I brought it upstairs then she called me down. I went down and she started telling me I need to stop when people tell me to and I did before she even said stop. then she was like go to your room im not going to talk to you when you are giving me a tone. and I did that time because im getting in trouble for nothing. I then told her I don't want to talk to you either so gladly. then she said I was grounded from the ps3 which I don't give af. lol so yeah why is she so mean to me. some background is im 13 have 3 sisters no brothers so she always is ruder to me I think. im in my room all day and you can see why. I collect reptiles. and that's basically it. and my dad is at week a week on and a week off.

I'm 16, and I got into some pretty big trouble. Anyways, it resulted in me getting grounded for the summer. The thing is, I was grounded all of last summer because I got caught smoking. If I obey my parents punishment, I'm going to grow up and remember that I was grounded for half of high school. Also, this is my last summer before I graduate high school and some of my friends are going off to college. Being at home is miserable as it is because we lost cable and wi-fi. My parents are also getting divorced and I very recently stopped communicating with him. It's just me and my mom. Anyway, this party is tonight. I want to go but I'n not exactly sure how. I was thinking of just leaving but I'd want to tell my mom that I left and when I'll be home but how would I go about saying that? She would probably call my Dad and tell him, but that wouldn't matter. Any ideas on how to go and what to say to my mom, without her getting too upset? I somewhat already told her that I'm not going to listen to her and I'd just go out places but I doubt she believes me. Thank you

I mean should I go now to their house or what? I never experienced something similar to that. Hes a lovely innocent child I don't like children but he was different everyone in my family was obsessed with him I don't know what to do help

I'm the middle child. My brother dropped out of HS so my parents have always picked on me since I look like him and act like him. I've always scored 5's on my AP classes, done my best to prove them wrong, and then there's my sister. She's in middle school and got a bunch of F's this year. She got a iPhone 5s, shopping spree, and trip to Mexico to visit our family there. I get nothing for my handwork. She constantly takes my things, she loves to steal, and she drinks. My parents do nothing. When I was a young child I would get punished so severely it still hurts to think about, for little things young children do all the time. She never gets punished. Of course it hurts to try so hard and get really no recognition from my parents (I just busted my butt for a 4.33!!!). I could go more in detail but this is just my current situation. Meant AP exams*** In my senior year I will be taking AP Gov, AP Bio, and AP Physics II. So any advice can help regarding those!

I had this relationship with my aunt and uncle, that was the most beautiful relationship ever in my opinion. They told me how vital I am in their life, how they want the best for me, how much they loved me, they would buy me everything I wanted, we would be together almost all the time, they told that I'm more of a son to them, they loved me like I am their own, told me that this relationship will never change no matter what, & all this other crap that i thought they meant. 9 years ago they had a kid, now they barely talk to me anymore. I understand we have other priorities also but I thought it would be like you know had a sibling or something. All of those feelings they had for me before, literally, don't exist anymore . I guess all of that was because they didn't have a kid of their own. No one I know knows i feel this way. They used to include me in everything and say how I will always be one of their top priorities in life. Everyday they would tell all of these things, literally. I don't even know how to describe how I'm feeling. I thought that I meant that much to them but I guess they just don't, in reality. I don't even care if I sound or am being ridiculous or irrational. All I know is, that kid completely ruined it. Am I wrong for feeling this way? I'm expecting for everyone to choose their side because relationships between the husband/wife & parent/kid that someone would die for. I'm just their nephew.

Im 24, just graduated from college with a Bachelor in Accounting degree, and struggling to find job. My mom treats me like garbage. If I say I'm going somewhere, she has an attitude and says visitors are coming over and place need to be cleaned and bla bla..then turns out no visitors show up. At the same time, my younger brothers are always out the house but when it comes to me, its always an issue. When I go outside and come back home, my mom has attitude and starts whispering to my dad and siblings bad things about me, and treats me like a dog. How can I make this stop?? Its hard first off to find a job, let alone, I have no money right now to get a place of my own. ;( sometimes I feel like killing myself because I have no privacy and everything I do is an issue or an argument..

I'm posting this now because I didn't know what to do about this until now. So here's the story: Before summer this year began, I decided to do something ambitious before school let out: Watch porn on one of the school computers. So, when no one was looking, I got laptop out of the laptop case in my classroom, turned it on, signed in, went to the web browser, found an unblocked proxy, typed in a porn link, and took the computer down to the computer lab. Everything went well until one of the school staff walked in on me, saw my porn, and demanded me to immediately go down to the office. When I got there, the staff started yelling at me about how the school computers are to be used as tools and not toys, and how I'm suspended for the rest of the year. (it was 3 days before school let out) So, I had to walk to the carpool lane and wait for my mom while the office called her. When my mom arrived, she didn't even look at me getting in. She had an angry look on her face, an when we got home, she said,"I am very disappointed of you. Later that night, she told me to come to her room, and she and my dad started yelling about how they thought I was a great student that gets very good grades (which I do), and thought I would never do something like this. Then my mom told me about how everything I do wrong ends up being logged in my permanent record and it could hinder me from getting the job I want to get when I grow up. (word limit, extending in updates) After my mom told me that, I was CRUSHED. I wanted to grow up and be a professional engineer, but now, since that's out the window, I've been thinking about how I may have to get a job at McDonald's (I feel very sorry for the people that have to work there) and I feel TERRIBLE. After that incident, I've become increasingly depressed, and now, I've become suicidal because now I know I may never be able to get the job of my dreams and will have to live a crappy life working at McDonald's. Knowing that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, I thought it would be the perfect solution to a permanent problem. So, I've gathered my anxiety medication (I have anxiety), and I have a handful of pills on my desk. Then something hit me, and that was the decision to speak out about it to see if I would get any help on this before I decide to swallow the pills. So I've typed this up to see if I would get any answers on how to resolve this, or if I would have to kill myself. Please help, I don't want to have to take the turn towards suicide. Thanks. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ End of updates. LMFAO THIS WAS A TROLL QUESTION ROFLMFAO LOL

he s a childish 14 year old hes a crybaby and wont leave me alone. Sometimes i wish i could kill myself to get away from him. sometimes i get sooo mad i start cussing in my head. i hit him back and i TELL HIM that i hate him and he still wont leave me alone. help?

It is that as they say two brothers or sisters get along better being the same sex than if they are opposites, I have always preferred to be with my brother than to be with my sisters. When I was a little girl, I used to play play with him, and now as a teenager, I'd rather go to the movies or go to places with him instead of hanging out with my sisters or my friends. You, girls.... Is any of you similar to me who always prefers the company of a brother man or are we a minority?

My brother and dad just left for California and I didn't go with them because my mom is a recovering alcoholic and I am in fear that she will drink because she is home alone so I didn't go. Now i have the opportunity of catching a flight to California to be with my dad and brother but I am holding back because I am worried about my mom and if she will drink. She's been sober for months now but she occasionally has slips, and when she does their pretty bad. I feel like I Iive for others too much and I need to start living for myself. Should I go to California or should I stay here with my mom?

So I am 24 years old and me and my husband just had a baby 4 months ago. I post pics of her on Facebook for close friends and family to see and my mom will get irritated if I send a picture to my mother in law that she doesn t have. Or also if I post pictures of my baby on facebook and I don t send it to her first she gets irritated and texts me and says "can you send me pics that you ve taken these past few days" ...like minutes after I post them....... It s just annoying and I m tired of this drama. I take lots of pictures of my daughter because we don t live near our families and don t have the money to move anywhere right now. I take and send all types of pics to family and post stuff for friends that are usually very busy with their own kids and stuff. I just am at the point of not taking pics anymore she s making it exhausting. Btw I send her pics all the time that I don t send anyone else and as soon as i send a few to my mother in law and she posts it my mom freaks out and wonders why I didn t send it to her?? Seriously?

I m a 15 year old boy. I live with my mom, step-dad, and little brother. I didn t really run away, but I did leave for the weekend and came back this morning. As soon as I step in the door my step-dad begins to hit me while yelling at me in front of my brother. I told my mom but she acts like she doesn t care. Can he do that?

I am 13, and my mom always makes me feel horrible about myself. Today, she said that i am turning into my 24 yr old cousin. (my cousin ran away with her boyfriend because she doesnt love her family.) And she also told me that my dad and her talked about how they never wanted a daughter like my cousin. My mom already almost left but i stopped her. Now i am terrified that she will leave again. I can't even talk or defend myself without her making it all about herself and saying that she does't deserve this crap and that she will ground me. Please help me i don't know what to do.

My mother-in-law words are calculated to make people feel guilty. And the obtain what she wants by underhand means. She always speaks ill of other her children behind their back. She has tact in managing her children. She and her daughter are estranged from each other now. and She(My mother-in-law) is estranged even with her sister. so she doesn't have any friends. She visits our house once a week with her dog. . (we don't have animal, I do not accept it.)　 and makes a call everyday to my husband . She thinks she's a princess...I hate her voice too, I can't relax when I am with my husband. I talked to my husband . He said it is her character and can not do anything. he tries visits to her house and ignore her telephone sometimes. Even if we repeatedly refused, my mother-in-law comes to our house or call my husband many times. I got a stress ulcer. What should I deal with stress?

So as you can see in the pic my aunt has huge b*obs. And I have been seeing them for about 3 years now. She doesn't have any kid yet and my uncle is out of the country(he works in USA). I am 17 and I stay with my aunt. I have vacations now and I am living with my aunt. I sleep with her everyday on her bed. I have tried touching them(b*obs) while she is asleep but the most I did was keep my hand on them. I really want to have a s*x with her. If not s*x I at least want to press her b*obs or make her suck my d*ck. What do I do to touch her b*obs? ( I have taken that pic when we were talking, I acted like I was using my mobile and she bent and i clicked the pic) Sorry, i put the pic but looks like due to some problem it didn't get uploaded I have uploaded her pic in the comments, check it and tell me people.

My mom constantly calls me to complain about my brother not helping her with the bills or giving her money or spending money on things other than helping with the bills. I'm 25 I moved out 2 years ago. He is almost 20 and still lives at home with her. She was a single parent all of our lives pretty much and still is. Ever since he's started working, they have always gone at it over money and so many other things. She calls me almost everyday to tell me things he's doing wrong and complain about how he gives his girlfriend money or spends too much money on his cars but doesn't contribute to it. Anyways, it's frustrating me because I don't live there anymore and it feels like I still do. I moved out because number 1. I was ready to be independent and number 2. they both annoy me with their constant fighting. I don't know how to tell her to stop calling me to tell me their problems or to ask me to talk to him about how he's acting. How can I say this without coming off rude or making it seem like I don't care about how she feels? It's not that I don't care, it's just that I have my own life with my girlfriend and I don't want these phone calls anymore. It's affecting my personal life because they make me upset. Thanks for your help!

I can't feel, and my life is going down the drain, I'm just getting dragged deeper and deeper in to it. I'm not happy. My family won't let me do the things I want to do, and I don't like the things I'm good at. They want to see me do the things they want. Like sports. The one sport I'm doing, they're going crazy about it. But when I say something that I actually want to do they turn it down and say I can't do that. I also haven't felt in a while. When I stare at something, I know it's there, but I can't comprehend it. My mind is fuzzy. It's a maddening feeling and there is nithing I've found to cure it. I have a beautiful girlfriend, who is an amazing person, but sometimes with her I feel nothing. It's forced and hard to say I love you to my family members. I'm just stuck in a little box. I was born mixed. My parents split up. I have to go to a different house every few days on a schedule with my mom and dad. My grandad is a cruel, hardened man that treats the entire family like dirt, like they don't matter, his vision of them matters. When I told my therapist about how I feel when I look at something, he just moved on. My best friend moved, and my other friends has cancer. But I can't cry, I don't know why I can't feel sad, please somebody help me. My grades are starting to get bad, and my family outside is starting to isolate me away from them, because when I visited them I couldn't talk. My family has made it better not to talk. That's how I feel. I want to die. Soon.

So I have two aunts who have always taken every opportunity to be bitter towards me and hold a chip on their shoulder because of my relationship with their brother who is my father. My father has given me a privilidged life. They don't even support him in his endeavors. Never show interest or tell him good job. But they are so quick to ask him for work for their husband and boyfriends. That is the only time they talk to him. Or if they want to go swimming in his pool they will just show up and use it. When they see me enjoying my life and having a good time, they talk to me less. Its weird. I can't explain it more than that. The hate they have for me is just obvious. They may as well be wearing their feelings about me on their foreheads. Why is it that if good things happen to me they stop talking to me?

So me and my fiance have been together for 2 years and we now have a 4 month old daughter. We were friends for about 6 months before getting into our 2 year relationship and recently got engaged. Once we started hitting things off, I met his daughter's mom who didn't even speak to me right off of the back. She just cursed at me to him and has been disrespectful since day one. Til this day she still doesn't like me and he knows this but steady allows his nosy *** mother to talk about his child's mother to him. He doesn't let her disrespect me but my whole point is, I don't like the conversation they're having. My fiance will leave the room to talk to his mom and I know a lot of times, it has been about his child's mom and her ill mannered behavior she puts on facebook or how messy she can be in situations sometimes. I'm so sick of it because she thinks it's alright and she's very long winded so they'll be on the phone for 20 to 30 minutes. I have 2 kids from my previous relationship and I wouldn't dare let my mother dicuss my girl's father to me if it has nothing to do with them. Am I wrong for being upset or should I just let his mother(single and 48) see that I'm not going anywhere. I honestly think that she doesn't like me because I already had 2 kids coming into the relationship with her son and it reminds her of how her crazy divorce played out. She thinks that my fiance will forget about his other daughter and just raise my kids. (STUPID WOMAN) Am I crazy or what?

I've been living with my step sister for near 3 years now, but our parents have been together for about 8 years.We are both 17. She is my best friend. Our parents actually met through us at her birthday party which I was invited to because we were such good friends, and when my dad dropped me off and picked me up, he hit it off with her mum. Its not fair because I knew her before my dad knew her mum and I crushed on her even though we were kids. That crush has never gone away, it has only grown into something more.I think she knows how I feel about her, but wont confront me on it because it'll make things awkward. She gets my crappy jokes when nobody else does, which means alot to me because I was bullied quite abit when I was younger. She has such a pure heart and she is so beautiful. Our rooms are opposite eachother, so sometimes if im in my room and she is in hers, and our doors are open, I watch her sitting there with her headphones on while reading or writing (She writes stories, she's so creative and I love it) I think about her all the time, and I've found myself jealous when she is with other guys. I'm not interested in other girls.She is the only one I want to be with. She has this cute way of sneering her nose up and she has such a bonkers laugh. I completely adore her and im terrified that i'll never get to be with her, or that i'll never get over her.If my dad knew he'd be so mad at me.He'd think I was trying to sabotage his relationship.Please help.Its killing me

Last week, my young adult cousin died in a car accident. He was sleeping in the back, and the driver who he trusted (but maybe shouldn't have) was distracted by her phone and potentially drunk. It hit us all hard. However, I found out that tomorrow since I have a day off of my part time job, my boyfriend wanted to "surprise" me with a day trip that he's been talking about for almost a year that he wanted to take me on once he could get his licence (He's had a lot of driving hours, far more than required to get it). My mom knew about it but it's been a while since we talked about it. I told her that I think that's what he was planning for tomorrow, and she freaked out completely, and said she can't be comfortable with me driving myself let alone anyone but herself driving me any time soon and that she'll need a lot of time before she'd ever let that happen. My boyfriend is a responsible driver. He knows the consequences of distracted driving, doesn't even have a smart phone, and we'd never drink, we're too young and we know it'd be stupid. She's saying she won't let me go. I understand why completely, but what should I say or when should I reschedule the trip to? What should I wait for? I understand that even after this happened, the roads are no more dangerous than they were beforehand. I'm scared too, but I know I can't let that limit me from enjoying my life or that day trip. I know my cousin wouldn't have wanted me to cancel my plans because I was afraid.

My mother's sister recently passed away in Mexico. Is it possible for my parents (US permanent residents) to become my 10 year old cousins guardians? She has neither parent alive nor other siblings. She is currently living with an aunt in Mexico.

My extended family lives far from me, around 9 hours. I only get to see my cousins a couple times a year, and my guy cousin is 33 and I'm 15. He told me I could come sleepover, and I could have the couch, or his bed and he takes the couch...why would he offer me his bed??

I am too scared to say anything to anyone as I am 18 years old and don't want to come across as a big baby. He calls me racist names even though i am white. Says i suck cock and stuff. What should I do? please help because i am at the point were i want to hurt myself :'( I lost birth father at 3 years old i am also the only child and my step dad is too old to have his own children This has been going on for nearly four years and i have sat and let him say **** to me

I live with my biological mother, I recently learned that since I'm 16 I have the legal right to decide where I would like to live. I have tried many times to leave the house that I am in, I am not mentally safe at my 'home' now. I want to move into my biological father house, I will be able to get a job and support myself better than I can now at my mother's house. I'm not exactly sure how to go about moving into my fathers house legally, but my goal is to move out of my mothers house and into my fathers. I currently live in Michigan with my mother, my father lives in Florida. He has a job and a big enough house for me to survive in, although he is low income food stamps and both of us working will help buy our needs. I look forward to your responses, thank you for your time.

So me and mum are two VERY different people. She gets mad very easily, one small thing goes wrong in her day and bam she's rage mode; Screaming her head off and saying the nastiest things. It's just a nightmare to live with her when she is the way she is. If anything goes wrong she blames anyone BUT herself.. she's under the illusion she right about everything. So I am a very clean person, my room is always clean and I can't stand it being dirty. My room is the only place I have full control of in the house because you see my mum is a hoarder.. she has a LOT of junk filling up the house. funny thing is she doesn't even live with us, she can't afford her own place at the moment so she's staying here at my dads house. She hoards so much stuff and it's literally everywhere, I want to clean it and I'm not allowed. So when I do even if I move 1 thing of hers she goes ballistic. Even stuff that's not hers she gets annoyed about it, its ridiculous. If I throw out old toys, my OWN stuff.. she'll tell me not to do it again and let her help me when I do it! If I do that it will all come back in the house! My dad and siblings are with me on this.. we all hate it. We hate we have to live in a dump surrounded by her rubbish. In fact all our friends and family see it, everyone but her. She doesn't even have an emotional attachment to these things. I don't know what's going through her head but it's like the more things she owns the better. How can I deal with this? I'm 15, thanks.

what do you think of a 8 yr old boy sharing a room with his 3 yr old sister?

My father is a drunk, hoarder, procrastinator and just really time consuming for everything. He makes up so many excuses like I'm sick, my foot hurts, it's too hot right now we'llgo later, sorry we'll go tomorrow and so on same thing every day! I am stuck out in the middle of nowhere with him. Living with black mold I've been after him to fix and other issues. I've been after him to help me. He keeps saying he's going to but claims he's sick then ditches me to go hang and drink with friends or stays in his room drinking. I like drinking but I dislike the drunks. Drunks, Pillheads and **** even pothead.Nothing wrong with weed either but I guess it all depends on the person really. Motherfuckers are annoying. I'm trying to find a way to get my permit/license and I just can't it's all about him. What should I do?

ok so we adopted when i was 8 that was a whole different story she was from another country and older than me. didn't know English. now almost 12 years later they decided to adopt 3 more kids between 8 and 14. the thing is i want the 2 younger ones to stay but the 14 year old girl gets on my nerves a little too much! MY dad built us a 400sq. foot bedroom in our basement (legally, with a contract and a go ahead) and i painted it and everything it looks awesome. thing is im clean and she is sooo... messy! she says she will keep it clean but there are clothes everywhere! i have to share the room with her. my side is really clean, neat, and tidy. I have a biological brother who is 8 also. WHat's hard about things is that she acts like MY parents biologically friggin had me loves her more than me. she tries to get that in my head. when my mom hugs me she always runs and hugs her for 15 minutes and every time i ask for time with MY mom alone, it never happens. I was going to go on a date but i had to cancel it bc she threw a fit! she said i'll be depressed and never forgive u if you go on your date. i'll hate you forever. like she's not even adopted yet she knew us for a month. 5 more months to change only her mind about staying here. we got new beds but the place did a mix up and sent only 1 of 2 beds. so she screamed and threw a fit told me she hated me and was very cocky to me and screamed how she was just going to leave. i mean she was a rotten BRAT!! i miss going to the store with just my mom and spending all day with her, btut now bc the last row in our car has to go down to put groceries in it and when my dad is running errands i have to babysit them if not all go. and if all do there is no room for me. my new "sister" wants to be around my mom all the time. I'm my parents one and only daughter they had biologically but i still feel like im being replaced. no matter how many times they tell me that will never happen. i no longer can do the things i love to do which is art bc well she wont leave me alone and just screws up my stuff on purpose. she told MY biological 8 year old brother yestereday was his bday told him that im no longer his older sister but now she is. shes not even adopted yet. i babysat him for 8 years! and she has braces so her bracket has been rubbing on her lip i had braces for 5 years and i just sucked it up. she acts like it hurts her so badly and that she is in excrusiating pain. so when she was eating i decided to be like ill be right back. she didn't know it but i was behind the wall she didn't see me but she took a whole perogie (that when i was with her she said it hurts too much to eat) and she took a huge bite out like she was fine. looking for attention she cna't stand not having attention.shes also violent. like she almost pounded a girl in the face for accidentally running into her she said sorry to her but didn't matter. if it wasnt for her id be happy not to be mean but she annoys me. what do i do about it? shes also very picky with my biological little brother she yells at him all the time and makes him cry im sick of it! what do i do?

My mom got mad at me and kicked me out of the house and now I'm sleeping on the street What should I do My mom will most likely let me back in but I'm mad at her too so I kinda don't want to go back hut I will eventually

He has pill addiction problems. I recently moved in with him 2 years ago because my mother(They are divorced) thought i was missing him in my life. When i didnt. How can i miss something i never knew. I had a amazing stepfather who cared for me.She lives in a different state across the country and sent me on a plane to meet him, i kinda wanted too! just to see what he was about. I was with him when i was a toddler until my mother decided it wasnt good to be around him cause his family are criminals.But ya, just so u guys know why i am here. I found out a year and a half ago he has this problem. I kinda suspected it. He takes so many that he has seizures, passes out for hours, cant walk or talk straight and imagines things. and he sometimes has anger problems on them or is even really sad and asks me why i hate his guts so much and tells me he cares about me. He takes muscle relaxers and xanax and opiates. he buys them from his FAMILY. What family sells their son that stuff???I tried to tell him they don't care about him but he won't listen to me...Anyways. He's on them 15 days out of 30. It makes me so mad to see him like that because he obviously doesn't care he has a problem and is ruining his life,and his familys. He is a ex marine (didnt see combat) and says hes in so much pain and all these excuses. My step mom told me he does it because of me,saying he went into a deep depression after he coundnt see me after my mom took me away. sometimes i tell him i hate him and to go kill himself because he is literally ruining my life calling me trach and everything on them and bringing bad people around his family, my step mom says hes so emotional about me

My girlfriend is 17 and I am 19, she will soon be 18 however. Her home life is far from great; she's an only child, spoiled by her mother but despised by her stepfather. She suffers verbal abuse from him, physical and verbal abuse from her own father when she goes to visit him, and neglect by her mom. her mom buys her stuff, and puts a roof over her head, but hardly takes time to care for and raise her. My girlfriend has been struggling with depression for quite some time throughout her life, and in January she attempted suicide. I made the 911 call that saved her life, and have stuck with her through everything. She's tried therapy (she hates it), antidepressants (doesn't want to become dependent on them), and now she's changing her environment (i.e. her room color, decorations) and exercising in the mornings occasionally. And the past couple months have been so much better for her. however, the other day she came home and her stepfather was running his mouth about her and she got upset as she usually does. Anyways, she told me that night that she wanted to get away and we planned a DAY trip to seattle, but my parents shut me down and wouldn't let me go because they're very strict and wouldn't want me that far away with my girlfriend (for one day). She got bummed out, and that night she told me she was writing me a letter, a love letter. And since then she keeps telling me how we cant be together anymore, how we're not "for" eachother.

I'm 21 and finishing my last year of college, have been interning with a large company all summer, go to a good university, etc... Planning a 4-day trip to Miami for my best friend's birthday and 3 other girls with my own money. However, parents won't "let" me go because of the party culture they see Miami as. They don't want me getting drunk (which of course we will but that's normal) or meeting any guys. They pay for my school/living/car but are not funding this trip, and want me to stay at home with them for the 2 weeks I have off in summer. If they are not paying for my vacations they really can't tell me whether or not to go? How do I get them to calm down and "let" me fly out?

my 6 year old sister always cries and gets me in trouble even tho I did nothing wrong. She can just cry and my dad always takes her side. My mom hates it 2 but she never cries around my mom. My dad always spoils her and gives her what she wants

I am disabled and am not permitted to drive due to a seizure disorder. I paid cash for my mom's car when I got my initial lumpsum and need rides 2-3 times a week. I'm transitioning into independence and bikeless, skateboardless. Eventually I'll only need a few rides a month. She complains about it though, alot. She tells me of scenarios of how people she knows are suffering due to shared purchases with their family members often. Even though she promised to give me rides since I paid for the car. What's your take on this?. I already hate depending on her for anything since I am trying to be independent. It's not such a smooth transition when you're disabled, with no carpool buddies and you can't ride the bus due to the noise levels and long time frames to a short destination.

I'm 13 and I'm not allowed to go anywhere. I'm trapped in my room every day and I'm not allowed to play in front of my house with other kids. I'm not allowed to be on the computer or watch TV on school days or even use my phone for more than an hour. I always see pictures of my class mates having fun at the local pool or going shopping and I'm just stuck at home like a loser. People don't bother asking me anymore because I have to say I'm not allowed. A quiet shy girl asked me to the pool with adult supervision and my mum said no! The summer holidays are coming up and I'm going to be so bored. I'm not allowed to wear nail varnish or style my hair in certain ways. I'm not allowed to close my room door except when I'm getting changed and I have to study and read all the time. I haven't done anything to make my mum doubt me because I always get high marks on my tests and never get bad reports or detention. This isn't fair, she doesn't get that I'm slowly becoming a loser. Then she complains that I can't do anything for myself when I have no experience whatsoever! I wish I could just have a nice outing with my friends, just once! :( what do I do? Talking doesn't help because it makes her angry and she'll take my phone away. She constantly searches my phone. That's why I don't keep a diary anymore- she read through it. I'm so unhappy and I cry sometimes at night when I think about how unlucky I am. Any help?

I like the idea of not asking for permission, but for his blessing as I said. Plus I'll get to clue her parents into the fact that I'm proposing. But how do you approach this? I was going to do it over lunch but please warn me if that's a bad idea

For the past few weeks I have been wanting to move in with my mom because my dad and I never get along and I don't like the environment of the area I am currently living in. I talked to my mom a few times and we agreed that I could come there after I transfer my files for school. To do this I obviously need the help of my dad but he refuses to let me go (when I asked my dad he simply said "it can't be done", but I know he doesn't have full custody and it can). Didn't I have a choice since I was 12? (I am 16 now). Is there any way I can get some kind of lawyer or anybody to tell my dad That I can't be held against my will to stay and to help me move in with my mom? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm 16 years old, something happened between my parents, for the past 2 months I thought I had a good relationship with them. It's currently 2am and I keep sobbing, trying to fall asleep but I can't, I can't think straight. I'm having these thoughts and everytime I ignore them they keep coming back, I can't sleep. I know if I kill myself I would miss a lot but it seems like I can't take it anymore with my parents, especially my mom. I don't know what to do...

I moved back home after getting divorced(I was married for 2 years). I'm already finished with school and I work full time. I can't afford to live on my own due to several bills that I owe that brought down my credit score which is preventing me from buying property, let alone rent any kind of apartment. After being on my own since I was 19 I dormed and got engaged, then married, I'm feeling a bit depressed about having to be home with my parents. They meddle in my life a lot and I can't really have a normal adult life. If I go on a date, by midnight my mom is blasting my phone telling me that she's worried. This is embarrassing but I still have to ask them for permission to sometimes get a 'no' answer from my mother. After I got divorced months ago, I was at my lowest, going to my mom for everything and crying everyday. She probably is worried that I'm still vulnerable, but after awhile, I accepted my married is over and started to mingle and she is totally against it. She think I should focus on my career and finding another husband as opposed to me going out. I have to ask her to go out to the bar sometimes and it's embarrassing. How do I approach this situation?

I'm 13 and my brother is 11. Whenever we argue, I always take more of the blame! My dad knows that too, he even said that before. I know I could talk to my dad, since he said that he really cared for my feelings and all, but we are in a family situation (he currently has a brain tumor) and I don't want to bother him or make him worried or anything like that. My mom expects me to tell my brother everything I know so he will be prepared for the future. That's fine, but whenever I ask my brother something, he doesn't tell me and gets away with it! I think my dad favors me more, but my mom favors my brother more. She always calls me stupid, worthless, etc. And she screams at me all the time and if my brother does the same thing, she just tells him nicely to not to that. It's totally unfair. I want to report her for child emotional abuse because she's done way more than that. When I was little, she used to drag me out of the house and make me stand outside for ten minutes as punishment for not eating all of my breakfast. Because of that, I was scared of the mornings for two years. She gave me the silent treatment for many times, never to my brother Ofcourse. She is better now, but still. Even though she yells at me constantly, I am still expected to help her pay the bills and such, which is something that she should know how to do! My brother never contributed yet he thinks that he is the reason that we are alive or something. Pls help???! My brother acts like he is spoiled. He constantly insults me and whenever I say something back, he goes off and tells mom, who screams at me for being such a selfish and bad sister while he has been completely nice to me. Oh, and I'm being ungrateful because someday my brother might not be able to call me weak and stupid Since my brother weighs like fifteen pounds more than me (he's 110 pounds) I call him fat (my only defense) then, my mom starts getting mad and saying how I should respect him. I'm just saying the truth. He's fat because he eats so much food (my food, to be exact)

This guy that picks up my family is very weird. I've known him since I was a little girl. I'm 24 now and he always pick up my family for church. He use to say stuff to me like don't grow up to fast when i was in highschool...etc. lately he's been going out of his way to call me to the point where he made a joke about wearing a dress that look like jlo then calling to applogize about the joke. Like wtf? Lol he then he started laughing saying he wanted me to come to church more. He even would tell my father if you would come to church your daughter will follow. Recently he started doing weird stuff, like calling and saying he will be outside in 2 mins we look out the window and he's already there. Sometimes he tells us he's outside and when we get outside he's not there until 2-3 mins he shows up. Mind you this guy is 48 or older, not married but just weird. Is it me or is he just weird?

Hi, This may sound like I am being a typical teen and her mum but that is not the case. I am 14 and I have a younger brother. The problem is him and my mother. My brother is like the devil seriously. It may sound like I m lying but the other day he came after me with a hammer. He would have hit me thankfully I was able to get away. He is 5. Of course I told my mum because she is supposed to be there for these things right? WRONG. She laughed. She didn t give out to him. Yesterday he kicked me for no reason. Unprovoked. I told, she laughed. It makes me very angry that my mum incourages this behaviour! So I decided to say this to her. And she said and I qoute " stop leave my baby alone" I started to shout because it makes me so mad and she laughed at me. I cry when I am on my own sometimes but how can I deal with this anger/hate I have for her? Why is she such a useless mother. Then she expects me to do things for her when she dosnt help me. My sister agrees this is not right. It was a proper hammer and he kicks us always for no reason. And when I push him away when he s hurting me. She picks him up and hugs him because he s screaming. She s useless. So how can I deal with this? I have a lot of hate and anger for her and I want to know how to handle it?

I watch a young boy he's 9 and he was sick all day (fever ) and his stomach hurt. I had him in our room away from my Daughter who's 3 she don't leave him alone if he was out here. He was watching cartoons and he asked if I could lay down with him so he could fall asleep. I texted his Mom asking if that was fine she said yes, but what's your input and would you allow that if someone watched your son and he was sick.

I'm 21 and living at home with my parents. My sister, her boyfriend and their kids live with us too.. but the thing is they hate it. They are in their mid 20's but my parents treat them like they are 16. They can't go places without being criticized for it. They constantly tell them how to raise their kids when they are fine parents. They tell them they do nothing for the family when they pay $300 dollars for rent and buy food for the house because my parents don't anymore. My parents expect my sister and her boyfriend to live with them forever. Now they are buying a house they can't even afford without the help of my sister.. My sister is done with it and wants to move out. But once that happens, I know my parents will depend on me. I don't mind helping my parents with rent IF they were responsible enough to cover themselves if I wanted to move out..but they aren't. THEY ARE VERY IRRESPONSIBLE WITH MONEY. They buy expensive things to impress their friends(for example a new car they don't need.) They go gambling when they know they shouldn't.. that was the reason we lost the first house.. so I ask you why the hell should I help them?? I want to move out, I could live with my sister, or my boyfriend eventually. But how can I without feeling bad?

I need to memorize a piano song but my grandma's friends keep calling her so i cant play or else she wouldn't be able to hear. I cant bring her to a different room because she has no energy whatsoever. Please help!!!

It is that as they say two brothers or sisters get along better being the same sex than if they are opposites, I have always preferred to be with my brother than to be with my sisters. When I was a little girl I used to play play with him, and now as a teenager I'd rather go to the movies or go places with him instead of hanging out with my sisters or my friends. You, girls.... Is any of you similar to me who always prefers the company of a brother man or are we a minority?

i'm bored.

Ok at home I'm 15 and I constantly have arguments, mostly with my mom. She gets mad at something I did, but she will get excessively mad, and begin to scream for no reason. Then when I try to talk, she wont let me talk, which angers me more. So I try to go outside and play basketball(that calms me down a lot). But she wont allow it. My dad sides with me sometimes, but she refuses to hear anybody out. "You might as well talk to a brick wall"~ my mom. She said that to my dad when I was walking away. When he tried to talk to her. How can I cope with my anger issues? • I cant walk away • stress balls don't work • I cant play basketball

Hi, I have a problem and it's all about my mother and I. Well, what happened was, she read my secret and private journal. Which was literally horrible because I wrote stuff about how I feel being neglected about how she treated my sister better than me and about how I feel whenever she goes on ranting mood. And now she's blaming me stuff about how I shouldn't write all this kind of stuff and instead, write things that I wouldn't even agreed on writing it (such as me writing ; Mom is angry with me again because it's my fault). And I wouldn't want that cause I feel like that would make it sounds like I was lonely if I view it in the future. No offense but I feel like mom is making me do stuff I wouldn't even want to. Worst of all, I feel lonely at the same time because mom seems like she's always nice to my sister but not to me. Please help.

He's so irritating. He went to college and has held and is currently holding a high-level job. He pronounces the simplest things wrong. Like he pronounces 'Facebook' as 'Facebooks' and 'Publix' as 'Public.' Then he can't spell. He spells 'remember' as 'remimber.' Then to get him to do anything you have to practically guide him by hand for him to understand. It's like he's mentally retarded.

I am a twenty-two year old straight guy. I get that specific because one of my friends think it is weird that I am sad that children are getting hurt or worse so much. I live in Connecticut and last week a father was on the news cause he was arrested for throwing his seven month old baby boy off a bridge. The kid drowned to death and his dad survived the fall but was arrested for murder. If the kid couldn't live I am glad the father did....now he can suffer in prison for the rest of his life. I usually never get mad but I don't know this guy or his kid, everytime I see that photo of the baby smiling I cry and hope I am on the jury that finds that father guilty. He wasn't even mentally ill just mixed up in a bad life and hated the kid's mother. I have 10 little cousins ranging from age 1 to 12. I have no kids of my own and are not married, only 22. But I love my little cousins. I see them only on holidays but I treat them like siblings. I started donating to charities that help kids not just here, but around the world to protect from hunger, sickness, and criminal activity. My girlfriend said she is happy I am open to my feelings this much and I'm just a caring guy. Is it true it is NOT weird to be sad like this about someone I didn't know?

I am 19/south asian and a college student. My dad is alcoholic and my 26 y/o brother is unemployed. I am experiencing high levels of stress and tension due to my tight schedule at university and family issues. Living with my family has been a very unpleasant experience because of all the fights, arguments, misunderstandings and everything. I want to move out but I cant because, 1.I don't feel like leaving my mom alone with my dad and brother. 2.I don't have time to do a part time job so the only option is to move in with my boyfriend. In my country, living together is unacceptable. So i will have to at least get engaged to him. He is a nice guy with a good job. I see myself with him in the future and we are planning to get married someday. But I don't think I am ready for that kind of commitment right now. What should I do? I am so stressed out right now. They say that its not safe for a girl to live by herself in my country. and that's kinda true. We hear about a rape case at least once a week. I am so helpless
