Hey so I m only 13, I live with my father, my dog, and two cats. It s not that it s just messy but I believe that my father has a.... Hoardering problem. All of the shelves are filled, there is always something out of place, and it irritates the HELL out of me because I like everything to be nice and neat. It s getting so horrible that sometimes I even contemplate running away... I never get drink from the facet because the sink is always dirty and filled to the brim with either dirty dishes, disquisting and filthy water, or beer cans. Sometimes all! I never like to go downstairs barefoot because there is always dirt on the floors. I never like to look in the fridge because it is just FILTHY in there. There are always flies and nothing ever gets cleaned on the schedule that it should... What I mean is that floors and any other surface that needs to be cleaned frequently (i.e. toilet/bathtub) only gets cleaned after a few months. I try to clean up everything myself but usually I get so frustrated and sometimes I even cry. I can t clean all of this by myself??! I know my dad is trying, but seriously there has GOT to be some other way? I want my friends to be able to come over to my house! P.S. I don t know if this is abuse or not but I really don t want anything to happen to my dad, we just lost my mom. I try to hint my hatred towards my home to my grandmother but there is nothing any of us can do. I don t think I can wait until I go to California for college. Please help!!

gofundme.com/helpdillonandlisa I started a gofundme last month and have raised over $500 from friends and family to help us move into our new apartment. My grandpa passed away in march and my grandma had to go to a nursing home after a stroke in febuary so it's just me and my mom and my grandpas animals and we no longer have there incomes to stay in our house. We are a paycheck to paycheck family and are trying to raise money to get us back on are feet. If anyone has any gofundme stories or advice on how to get donations and raise awareness please let me know thank you

My brother is currently 7 years old. At a young age we allowed him to play video games which has been a wrong decision because all he wants he to play around and doesn't know when to stop. His behavior now has gotten worse and I want to help him. He does hit(playfully, sometimes it would hurt) , talks back, cries (to get what he want, when I'm mean, or for fun) and he doesn't know when to stop. However when it comes to stranger he is shy and doesn't stand up for himself against bully but he can hurts his own family. Beside that he doesn't want to learn, no matter how much I try he just can't seem to remember/ want to learn. He would cry when I teach him and I do get impatient when I have to repeat something over and over. Not only that he told me that sometimes he want to die, he wants to be dumb, and doesn't care. I love him and really need help to change him. So people please be respectful when commenting about him. Any advice?

My dad doesn't treat me like he does my sister. He will talk to my sister but don't seem to want to talk to me. He doesn't ask me to do things with him but he does with my sister. Anything good i do he doesn't care, i'm not perfect but my dad seems to hate me. I even told him i'm a disappointment and he didn't say i wasn't. My dad is ashamed of me?

I just started school yesterday. Worst day of my life. Whenever the teacher calls my name and laughs and people are all like "haha it's the dumb white kid" or they just laugh. Like today. I was called up to get a paper from my teacher, and everyone was laughing almost crying, I knew they were talking about me because they said my name. And started laughing. And then I told everyone that it is very rude to laugh at others, well. That just made them laugh even more. And today when my teacher a assigning seats, he told some girls to sit by me, and then she looked at her friends and said "help me" and they were all laughing. I have no friends. Are they bullying me?

So they left and I thought it would be the perfect time to make a peanut butter jelly sandwich , so I started making one but I heard someone outside my kitchen window(it was like 10pm) so I panicked and yanked my pants down and put the peanut butter slice of bread on my left butt cheek and the jelly on my right cheek! I then said out loud that I was home alone just to scare the person hiding, but it didn't work unfortunately. I was so scared that I started playing black ops 1 and boy was that a night I will never forget, I was one kill off my biggest killstreak and I died...so I just went to sleep. [Help]

Currently my kids are enrolled in soccer and lacrosse. What are some more activities I could enroll them in?

my 5 year old step bro was once an energetic happy friendly child who loved being pitside and active ever since his mom and him moved in wit my dad he hasnt left the office he plays violent video games eats ice cream and cheetos everyday for months now and everytime i see him his face is always stuck to a screen is this good for a 5 year old?

Im a 15 year old girl. I cant stand the way my mother talks to me, and how she ALWAYS pus my younger brother before me. She's a little *****. When I was little she liked me because I was her little doll she got to ******* dress up and I didn't know how to stand up for myself back then. Now that I don't take crap from anyone, apparently I have a "horrendous attitude" and i "don't know how to speak to people." If shes a ***** to me and give me attitude, ill give it right back to her! i don't care. if she wants a good relationship with me, she should stop treating me like absolute trash. Idk what to do anymore. She needs ******* help.

I literally can not stand my ******* mother. Every time she ******* opens her mouth, I wanna punch her in the goddamn face. She treats me like trash, and talks to me with the most disgusting attitude you've ever heard. And me being me, I dish it right back to her. The thing she cant seem to get through her thick skull is that if shes nice to me, im nice to her! If not, ill give her the same **** back. I'm so done. Im having a mental breakdown. This **** has gone on too ******* long.

damn it. She doesnt care what she is talking about you ,she just ,,,damn it. it's annoying its damn annoying and I have talked with her many times about this and she doesnt damn give a ****.I cant even say anything bad, she is my mother afterall.. she talks something embarassing infront of others,"he still watches cartoon"(by the way it's anime) and many more ;brags about me,"my son is smart/intelligent","he can do this/that". its good that she does that but its annoying at the same time.

They are forcing me in a major .They said they'd put me in the number one university in our country if i go for it they said if i choose another major they'd gladly put me in a community college I HATE THEM SO MUCH

This sucks. Recently, my mom won t listen to me. For about six months now. She uses the excuse that she s been busy with work, and I understand, but I wish she would make time for me. I m fourteen and literally have no talent or hobby, which I desperately want. When people ask me what I m interested in, I don t have anything to tell them. Every time I ask my mom to get me involved in art lessons or have guitar lessons, she either ignores me, or tells me that I can figure it out myself. My mom hasn t done the dishes or cleaned the house in months! I don t even get appreciation for doing housework, and I m practically expected to do it. Usually, mom is on the phone, texting or whatever. I could tell her that I was dying and she wouldn t hear me because she s too interested in her phone. She puts herself before me by a long shot. But if she wants to tell a story, you better be listening or else she flips out. If I want a womanly figure to actually listen to me, I go over to my best friend s house and talk to her mom. When I try to talk to my dad about it, he just says that she s busy. I know she is, but I feel like there s no room for me. She replaces me with her work, and it s pathetic. I feel ignored and put on the back burner. What do I do about this? I feel like there s no hope. She ll never understand or be interested in my desires or wants.

I'm 21.My parents want me to pay 350 dollars a month to stay with them when I'm barely there. I work two jobs and when I'm not at home I'm with my boyfriend. Anyways I figure if I have to pay for a place it might as well be my own. I was giving them money until my car broke down and I had to pay to get it repaired. But now I haven't paid them at all for about a month. I'm saving to get a new car because i know my car doesnt have much time left. Today my dad said if I don't pay them by the time I get my next check I can just get my stuff and go and I told him I'm not going to I can go now. Kicking me out isn't solving anything. But so be it I personally think its bad parenting and childish. My dad doesn't even wash dishes he thinks hes a king or something. And I think that because I sleep there sometimes they think they have some type of hold on me but I stopped that today. The thing is I don't have anywhere to go. I don't think my boyfriends parents will let me stay there and I don't want to tbh. I just want to be on my own. When I lived with my parents there would be times were I was broke at work, hungry at lunch because I had given them all of my money. I'm over that!! I just wanna know tips on how to survive living out of my car? Tips on being homeless because let's face it I am. Not for long just until I save enough money to get a place.

He is 17 and has mental disabilities and talks online with friends all the time. Once, I found him in my swimming costume from when I was 7 and he was on his computer talking to someone and he told me to go away so I left his sandwich on the floor and left. A few days later, we were playing the nintendo wii together in his room and my back was hurting so I went to grab a pillow and he screamed at me to use a different one. Then today, I was really curious so I looked inside the pillow and I found the swimming costume coverd in what looked like poop.... Also, I know it HAS to be something sexual like masturbating or something.something he obviously doesn't want me to know. And I know it's wrong to look in his stuff and invade his privacy and I try not to but I am kinda worried about him..... His mental disabilities don't really do much. He's capable of a lot. Him mind just thinks a tiny bit differently

I live with my brother and his fiancee and they both love me very much. My brother's fiancee is extremely protective of me and is the person who takes care of me. Let's just say she caught me with a tiny bit of weed and flipped out. But everybody does it! She said she doesn't care about everybody else she cares about me! She took away my phone car keys and computer! She told me I can have them back when I'm ready to tell her who gave me the weed. I'm not a tattle tale. I talked to my brother and he said she can punish me how she sees fit.

Its my summer holidays now with around 2 and a half weeks left and I want to spend it how I want. I'm 15, (16 in a month) and I don't want to sit down and have my head revolved around studying everyday. I usualy just sit and play GTA 5 and go out like everyday but I moved homes yesterday so I'm just relaxing a bit. half the time I play on my ps3 he comes and tells me to get of so he can play bo2.,.. idm him playing but it gets annoying. my auntie lives next door and they went on holiday so its empt with a extra ps3 so I just play next door and try stay away from him. if I miss a day he would come to me and ask have I studied if I say no he would shout at me and make get up and go study and when ever I ask if I can get a new pc or laptop to "study" and play games sometimes its allways "NO its your GCSE times and you have to study, you have no friends for a year and I'm taking away your laptop, games, ps3 and u will have nothing. LIKE WTF does this guy want a ***** slap from me? he goes gym everday and was a kickboxer but I aint scared of him for shits. ill break it to him one day and say he isn't my dad so don't treat me like I'm his son. I have had so many thoughts of jumping out my window or just stabbing him in his sleep. I hate him so much he never lets me do anything how I want. I'm not spending my time studying when I wanna chill and relax then study hard when I need too. I'm typing all this now in my "study time" so what the f*uck should I do. i hate him and cant him!!!

My Dad does this (64) lol. With company over!!! Women, kids, etc. As did my Grandfather, and Uncle who still does (67). Seems like guys who are 55 and up mostly. Do you find this odd, and gross all at once? lol Opinions?

I moved from Missouri to California 2 months ago to live with my aunt & my uncle. Well my uncle & I were having a talk & I told him I wanted to go back to Missouri by next year. My uncle told me why? He asked what I'm going to do there. I told him just die. My aunt came in & over heard us talking. We then had a serious talk, she questioned me why I wanted to go back, that I knew the answer. She told me she saw my scars on my arms & legs, she said that she knows I don't have a great relationship with my parents, she told me if I go back; that I'm going back to my problems. I told them that I'm always going to have these personal problems no matter what. She told me that she's not letting me move back, if I want to visit my family that they all will come with me but will bring me back to California. She told me I have a great future here, that they are here to help me or bring me help. She told me that she wants me happy but I need to let go of the past & be happy. I don't know how to do that): My uncle & aunt told me I can go see a therapy or if there's anything they can do. Honestly I don't want to change but my aunt made me promise here that I will change. That I won't be in the room all day or sad. I don't know how to do that. I am scared. What should I do?): I'm 19 by the way.

I'm 13. I always have to keep everything I do on it open to them. For example, my parents always go through my browsing history, and I'm always afraid they might find something that the consider "bad" on a site that I do on. And sometimes they do. It's not like I INTENTIONALLY went on something bad. I can't use Incognito mode because then my parents will suspect I cleared my browsing history. And they said if I ever DO clear my browsing history, my computer is gone for a week. Also, if I end up wandering onto a bad site, and I close out of it while my parents walk in, my parents will demand me to open the page back up again or, again, I get my computer taken for a week. Like for example, yesterday I told my mom I was a furry, and she doesn't really know what furries are, and now today, I was looking a Tumblr blog on horrific fursuits (horrificfursuits is it's name) and my mom saw some of them, and I didn't want to give her a misconception of furries, so I closed out of it, but then my mom demanded me to open the page back up again or she will inform my dad about it, and then I will get in trouble. But the worst part is, they always tell me that I should have nothing to hide on the computer, that with me and the computer it's total transparency, and that it's a parent's job to see everything their child does. Well, I think not. Now having no privacy is just starting to get ANNOYING ASF, as I feel like EVERYTHING I do has to be open to them and I'm getting SICK AND TIRED of it. I can only feel like I'm being monitored all the time. I am SERIOUSLY CRAVING at least SOME privacy on the computer, but no matter what, my parents WILL NOT let me have it. And believe me when I say this, my craving for privacy will NEVER be satisfied until I actually get at least SOME decent privacy. What do I do? Also, it's with my own computer, and I can have it in my room, but under the circumstances that I listed. I forgot to add that the entrance to my room faces the house hall, and my parents are constantly walking through it 24/7. I also always have to keep the door open so they can see what I'm doing no matter what. If I close the door, they just open it back up. And I can't have a lock on my door. And DON'T give me any answers like, "When you're 18, you can do whatever you want" because I DO NOT WANT THAT SHlT EVER. If you say that, you will be blocked. Also, I want answers on what to do about this, not answers like "Your parents are looking out for you." NO, I do NOT want that, I want answers on what to do about this while it's happening NOW.

last Monday night she told me that her father raped her and beat her 3 times that day while i was away at work. i did not believe her one bit because she constantly lies. one time she lied about her school teacher slapping her in the face and almost got her fired. she also lied about her little sister killing an animal which turned out that she lied. how can i make her stop this? she had no marks on her that day. i made her strip down to her underclothes and check for bruises and there was not one marking on her. if he beat her then isn't she supposed to have any markings? little liar. I'm thinking about giving her away to her grandmother because I'm sick of her. my husband is a good man and would never hurt her or me. he does have a criminal record because when he was 14 he molested his 2 year old step sister but he said he was a disturbed kid. he then got sent away to a juvenile detention center until he was 18 and then sent to an adult prison for 5 more years. he released early because of good behavior. when i found that out i was heart broken because i was engaged to him at the time and didn't know weather to cancel the marriage or not because we were going to get married in a few weeks from then. he said he wanted to be completely honest with me. i forgave him and accepted his apology and because of his honesty i married him. now my daughter is trying to destroy our marriage with her filthy lies. i can not stand that little brat. should i give her away?

I have had a CRAZY life. From the time I was born to around 6 years old I was constantly moving. My mom and dad divorced and a early age. My mom was a drug and alcohol addict and my dad was also a alcohol addict. My mom would do anything for money. which means sleeping with guys for money. So i was exposed to sex at a very young age.. and my older girl cousin (probably 7 years older) would make me do sexual things to her. and from then on i was experimenting a lot with other girls. i remember watching porn movies at a VERY young age... I thought i was normal.. When i was around 7 years old. my dad got remarried and started getting help with his addiction.. he eventually got sober. my dad got full custody of me around 8 years old. i couldn't see my mom anymore. I have a older sister and brother. we was so close it was like my sister was my mom and my brother was my dad.. I was scared to talk to my dad. anyways fast forward a couple of years. I haven't had my biological mother in my life and my dad and me werent close and all i ever saw was arguing between my siblings with my stepmom. so i just followed everything and everywhere my siblings were doing. when i was 11 years old my sister and brother ran away from home. They ran off to see my mom. I was completely lonely and scared. LOOK IN ANSWERS TO CONTINUE..

I feel terrible for posting this if my wife ever new she would divorce me but I have to get this off my chest I have a 6 year old daughter who I thought I could bring myself to love but she has cerebral palsy I can't deal with it looking at her in her wheelchair dribbling makes me just want to die I sometimes wish she was never born she has cost me thousands because we had to make are house special needs to suit her she has drained all my money I can Bearly look at her anymore I'm ashamed to be seen with her in public I just don't want to live like this anymore I'm thinking of just packing my things and leaving I think that it's best for everyone

Can I go without her permission?

My parent wouldn't let me lock my bedroom door, well.. only my dad wouldn't let me lock my door I'm a teen girl so sometimes I'll lock my door when I need to change cloth before going to bed. So yeah sometime I forgot to unlock them.. like tonight he forced me to wake up =w= I don't really mind not locking the door but he need to understand that I'm already 17 and need my own space! Sometimes he just barg in without knocking.. he even put his closet in my room so he can find excuse to enter it .-. I never actually do bad things.. I just lock it when changing cloth.. I don't think it's right for him to do that... it's making me stress

im 20 and he is 22. we arent really friends but we've known each for 6 years. we causually have sex. he recently told me that he didnt want to have sex with me anymore. This is the 4th time he has told me this over the course of 4 years. I've only been with him and the person I lost my V card to. I also dont have sex often. on average its 3 times a year. Now if im correct for a female to be able to have successful intercourse she should be fully aroused. When we have sex he never really turns me on to where I can "take him all". He told me he doesnt want to have sex anymore because he cant get in all the way. He has me questioning myself like something is wrong with me. But then again he doesnt turn me on like that because he does like 2 min foreplay. Am I the problem or is he the problem? Also do you think that he will try to have sex with me again? By the way he is not the kind of person where I ASK him to do something sexually for me because he will take it as me telling him what to do and he wont do it. he has to already want to do it for it to happen.

My wife and I desperately want to have a family but, we're concerned on the costs of having children and, what them living in poverty is going to do to them. We're afraid and it's all my fault. I suffer from severe Schizophrenia on a daily basis and my wife cannot work as, I need to be taken care of and watched 24 hours a day seven days a week. It's a full time job for her. Before I got married my mother and father had to take shifts with me and it was extremely hard on my parents taking care of me. So, we're literally living off of my SSI check of $733. My mother has promised to help us financially raise our children (She makes about $45,000 a year currently) but, she can only help us for so long, she is retiring in 2 years and is 63 years old. She's getting too old to take care of me or my sister anymore. My sister is in the same boat, mother of 2, disabled (Bipolar disorder) who can barely keep her family going and only makes about $25,000 a year. She's lucky because she can take care of herself where I can't and her husband can work though so his income might be higher in the future. So, it's just got me really worried about the future. I don't know what's going to happen.

We don't have a CPS in my country which is why Mum keeps defending my Dad after he literally abused me last week. I'm like,"Mum, how can you defend him?" and she says, "He has all rights to hit you. You were impolite and disrespectful" I'm so done with this family like??? Sure. I wasn't at right by being disrespectful but is hitting me respectful? I was talking to my friend who lives in America and I told him my Dad would slap me if I angered him and my friend got worried. If only he knew what my Dad would actually do. I was so casual about the slapping I didn't realise that it too was serious! What am I supposed to do when nobody is on my side apart from my online friends who don't even know what happened?

I'm currently in sophomore year of high school and my parents have been divorced since 2006. My mom wants to change her last name back to her maiden name, but she said she'll only do it if I want to change my last name (she wants to be a family and not have a different last name than her children). I don't want my mom to feel as if she has to identify with my dad even though they've been divorced for the past 9/10 years, but at the same I've used my dad's last name for my entire life. I've already signed up for school and AP testing with my dad's last name so I'm scared if I change it there will be some problems when transferring my scores, grades, or whatever.

Ok so i am 13 and downstairs i heard the bed creaking. I think they were trying to keep it down for my sake even though they thought i was asleep. The thing that disgusts me is that they are like 55 years old, i didnt know old people had sex. also, i know this sounds mean, but my dad is overweight and lethargic so i dont know how he went at it that long.

It starts in 4 days!!! I bought new shoes, but that's it. I shouldn't have quit my job. I start my first day at another retail store on Saturday. And I started my orientation this past Tuesday. They pay by weekly (2 weeks) which means that if want anything new I'll have to wait until 1st of September!! When school starts on August 24th. I'm screwed, and I blame myself for the most of it. Had I kept my last job that paid weekly, this would not be a problem. I feel as if you need new school clothes your senior year, I don't want to miss a week because I don't have new school clothes, my parents have put me through for the past 4 years. They always fail to execute around this time, it's so nerve racking, they'll excessively deny the fact, so a lot of is my parents fault, has been for years. That's just something your parents should have you backed up with. My parents, nope. So it's my last year, and I feel trapped.

:3 todo comenzó cuando nací.... ahora si lo que pasa es que me interese en un muchacho 2 años menor que yo y pues actualmente lo añadí en facebook y hablamos pero un día un amigo lo añadió y le dijo que ami me gustaba (sapo) pero el no se lo tomo a mal <3 pero ayer unas niñas del curso de el me arrastraron alas malas y me lanzaron encima de el y el salio corriendo :c aush y despues lo busque para explicarle y el dijo que no había bronca y todos están que se meten y no se si intentar seguir y gustarle o rendirme y nunca volverle a hablar tengo miedo que no me correspondo y pues el dice que necesita tiempo para conocerme pero no se si es mejor dejarlo así o intentarlo yo creo que me ve como una puta acosadora y creo que la cageee!! :3 gracias por su atención aunque se que nadie le interesa :v al menos lo intente es que el me parece interesante pero temo a que me tenga miedo :v lo se mi historia es muy muy triste solo quiero una señal para saber si seguir o dejarlo

My little sister was given a Victoria Secret gift card for her 14th birthday by my mothers boyfriend. I think it's kind of weird, but my mom and sister think it's perfectly fine. My mom has been with her boyfriend about 6 month's and my sister has never said he has done anything inappropriate and she doesn't seem uncomfortable around him. I'm almost 30, and I'm not really around much, so I don't know him that well. He is know as a good christian guy, so I feel like I'm being over protective and paranoid. She probably has never even shopped at Victoria Secret, which makes it even more odd. I just think the clothes there are too sexy for a 14 year old. I know this is a weird question, I just need a outsiders opinion. Sorry, it's so long.

Does an American women, have the right to complain? She has many grand children but will never see any of them ever, because their mothers will not let him. This is because her grand children are born in Japan while her son is in the US military.

People say I don't look disabled. Does disability really have a "look" to it? I am 32 years old. But, I have always been told I look younger than I am and that the sound of my voice makes me sound younger than I actually am. I also have a 2 year old and a 4 year old son and daughter. While I have always been disabled due to congenital abnormalities of my hips, lower spine, and pelvis (which was not found out until after a very traumatic delivery of my first babies; being twins one still born.) I was also injured during that birth and therefore that is how I found out about my congenital abnormalities of the shapes of my bones. I have a very long list of medical conditions that contribute to my disabilities. I don't feel I need to explain all of my problems to anyone. But, I am not treated with respect when I use an electric cart at the grocery stores and I am given rude stares of disapproval. My sister right now is my caregiver and I absolutely hate it now. She complains when I ask her to do any work related to being a caregiver. Should I get a new caregiver and forget trying to "convince" her or other people of my health problems? I just want to get the help I need. I feel I have and am being discriminated against through age, marital status, and being a mom as well. What would you do in my situation?

Most of the time I feel trapped inside my room, while my dad sits in on the living room couch that is right outside my door. If I walk out, he will give a funny look and say nothing. I hear him talk on the phone all day with his friends, but he rarely talks to me now. We used to talk, but I it would aways be about the conversation we would always have (sports) and with his friends it will be all sorts of conversations. Its weird we rarely get into heated arguments but I feel like their is always tension. The other week there was a subpoena on our front door for rent, so I took it inside and put it on the counter. When he got home, he took it to his room and he never said a word since about it. I don't know if its because there is some kind of spite, but I don't see as the same person I used to see him as. Me playing sports would always lead him to always talk about how to make money, but we are still pretty much broke. What degree I should get (for example: Communications), but I wanted comp sci. Or how I should get better at sports, and how good he was.

Help me come up with a lie for confessing sexual abuse to DCFS so they get off of my case? I don't care how bad of a person i look. My life is going great and im happy but someone bought this up. I need to come up with a lie because to cover this because if i don't they will ruin my life honestly.

My sister is the most self centered human of Earth. My mom always asks me why I am drawing and does everything in her will power to get me to stop drawing even though it is my passion. My brother is a complete asshole t me all day and my dad likes to brag all the time how smart he is and how he works so much harder than I do. I ******* hate ky family. They are destroying my life. My sister is moving back home too and it will make my life total hell. All she does is talk about herself and criticize me all day because she thinks she is so much better than me. I hate my siblings but my sister especially. I give them absolute no love and speck of attention because that is what they do to me. You cant choose who you are related to so they take up space in my life. People suck in general. Everyone is selfish and cannot see into other peoples thoughts

ALL THE TIME my mom will tell me I can do something and then I go and do it and when I come home she yells at me for not asking. It's ridiculous. 20 minutes ago I asked if I could go to the bank machine and she said YES. And I came home and she yelled at me aggressively for going although I didn't ask. Or I'll send her texts and she'll yell at me for not asking or sending them and then I show her I sent it and that it is on her phone. Does this happen to anyone else? I SWEAR I'm not lying to her.

my dad won't ever let me go outside. he never lets me play. he makes me stay inside all day. i haven't gone outside in 10 months. right now he's asleep so I'm asking on his laptop. he also says I'm worthless and will never find happiness. he drinks and I'm scared. he once didn't feed me for 2 weeks. 10 months ago i tried running away cuz he was drunk and he dragged me back in and hit me. he "home schools'' me but he just gives me a book like 2 times a week. i used to be in school but after my parents got a divorce he got custody and we moved across the country. i don't have a phone and if i try to leave I'm afraid he might kill me. how do i kill him. please someone tell me. im 15

My mom is in her 60s, she is retired. She goes on about 6-7 cruises per year. Recently, she got in trouble with her taxes and my grandma had to bail her out (thousands of $). She literally spends every dime she has on a cruise. My grandma is fed up with her because she spends so much that my grandma again, has to help her. I am a teacher and have a sales job on the weekends. My husband is a truck driver and we have 2 kids in school and one on the way. She doesnt allow anyone else to watch my kids and with her being on cruises, I have no one to pick them up from school when I am still at school myself. She called me selfish for wanting to work 2 jobs and said that this is all about her, no one else. What is right? Why might she constantly book cruises? Could this be an addiction? she spends like there's no tomorrow, thousands of dollars a year on cruises She also will yank my 8 year old out of school without my permission to take him on a cruise

I do my work, pay for my own tuition, pay for house expenses, clean and does chores. But she won't be happy with me at all. I know my family is in very bad condition financially, but I've not contributed to making it worse. All I ever do is listen to her yelling and complaining. I give her all the money from my part-time job, she takes out loans in my name and social security to pay for her credit cards, and I still don't get to eat food! My live-at-home 26 year old brother, jobless, gets to eat and sleep his days playing video games. Why am I the one starving and being yelled and hit at?! Why am I living in this hell?! Should I move out?

So I just went into my room to get my laptop (I'm a 14 year old boy and she is a 20 year old girl) So when I walked into my room my cousin was naked and I wasn't looking at her so I had to cover my eyes because it would be wrong if I looked at her. Luckily my laptop was on the desk where the door is. I just took my laptop and I ran off. My cousin and I were the only ones home at the time. She is still here, should I tell her I caught her masturbating?? I wasn't sure if she was because she was UNDER MY SHEETS. So I just didn't want to sleep in my bed because of what I saw last night. I slept in the living room and it has a fold out couch with a TV so I was good. What do you think I should do? Should I tell her I think I caught her masturbating?? I wasn't looking at her at all because my laptop was on the desk which is 1 foot away. I have no idea why she was in my room

I'm trying to make this short and sweet.5 months ago my brother in law passed away and he owned his own tattoo shop.He invited his brother who is a professional piercer to work with him.But since he died its been bad.his sister in law took over and the artists at the shop tease and dont respect him,they bust his chops and he's miserable there and hes been told countless times to leave its not his brothers shop anymore and no ones going to change. Should he leave? (There's more to this question) Said sister in law doesn't give a crap about him and her true colors have shown since her husband died.She loves being in control but takes no responsibility.And it seems that all she picks on is her brother in law since hes the only piercer there.The reason why Im asking all this is that its tearing me apart a death in the family shouldnt pull them apart it should bring them closer but not in this case we are falling apart and I have a feeling that she doesnt even consider us family anymore.

Okay.. My dad. He s so..... I dont know. Too protective. He says these things. No youtube, no social media, only use the internet for educational purposes. I cant close my bedroom door. I cant watch movies on weekdays. He says my friend is trying to tear me away from my sister, (but she actually brought us closer), no makeup. The list could go on forever. Plus.... i m 14. HELPPPPPP

PLEASE READ ALL!! I truly consider myself the most blessed person on the planet. I come from a lower middle class family, are a struggling writer with college loans, and only a few friends. those few friends though, Alix, Forrest, Paul, Tyler, Mitch, are like brothers to me. We don't shake hands when we say hi or bye. We hug. We're in our twenties and we hug. I also hug everyone in my huge Italian family. My mom has five brothers, all with wives and at least 2 kids each. I have my parents, still married after 35 years and a sister, two adorable cats, and 10 younger kid cousins who look up to me. I have an amazing godmother/aunt (Dad's one sister) who lives close. HOWEVER: When I was 18, my cousin Suzie died. She mentored me in every big decision in my life and was only 24, died of cancer after a few months from diagnosement. One of my best friends died unexpectatly last year and I found out on Facebook. My cat got sick last month and I freaked out, she got better. Sister had this bad cough and I thought she had cancer. I am so afraid ALL THE TIME I'm going to be alone one day in the world. I'll never make it as a writer, my family will think I'm a failure and drop me (even though I have a job and we're on good terms) and die alone. I'm afraid of growing up, getting something like dementia or cancer and dying painfully in the ICU with a tube down my throat like Suzie. I CAN'T accept death, even though I must like everyone. I can't imagine losing everyone.. ......like my mom and dad. They're two of my best pals. They're old though! Dad is turning 61, and mom 56. Same with my godmother. I hug and kiss them and talk to them about issues like anxiety of the world everyday. How can I make it without them? Just the thought of them just being a quiet grave one day, it's frightening. I get so depressed sometimes I can't stand. I take anti-anxiety meds but they barely help sometimes. I WANT to believe in God, miracles and afterlife.but no proof

Every time i fix a plate she wants to know what i'm eating..

How Do I convince her?

I'm 14 years old and I prefer being alone in my room. I don't like to talk with my parents or spend time with them. My dad is criticizing and talking a lot I don't wan't to be around him. Other than that I can't say I love them so much. My dad is upset with that and he is usually aggresively telling me that I should be with them then we start arguing and these kind of things make me dislike him even more. When he tells me something I got irritated and sometimes I answer him aggresively because I can't stand him talking. Do you think I'm a bad son ? What should I do ?

Ok so I need help finding my mom's new address. My mom and dad had a huge custody battle over me and basically my dad got custody. My mom had visitation with me until 2014 when she stopped coming to the visitation center and picking me up. I know she didn't stop coming because she doesn't care, my grandma is going through a lot of health problems right now and I know she just didn't have the time. But they stopped doing visitations because she stopped coming. I can't send a letter to her old address because she doesn't live there anymore and when I called the post office and asked if they could give me her address, and the woman yelled at me and told me it was confidential information even though I'm her daughter! I even asked if I could send a letter to her old address and if it would be forwarded to her new one, and the woman said that it would not work, that I would get the letter right back. I tried, and that happened. I've looked on white pages, too. I talked to her neighbors at her old house and they said that she's only been out of her old house for like a month. I just really want to send her a letter and see how she's doing...she hasn't always been the best mom but she's still my mom and I love her. Can anyone tell me how to find her address? please help

I have always had problems with trying to fall a sleep, especially at the right times. I've been having an extremely difficult time falling asleep lately, I usually sleep 6am-10 or 11am. My mom usually gets up at 9. She complains that it's my fault I can't sleep, and when I'm moody because she wakes me up she says I need help ( Like mental health ) I just can't sleep ever. I'm in my late teens. Everyone just assumes I'm lazy and retarded because of it. I make my own money, clean the house everyday, but yet they don't appreciate it. My mom evidently does love my sister & her boyfriend more. I asked if she can get me sleep medicine to help, but it's a no. But when her boyfriend needs pain reliever she gets it like 5 minutes later for him. I don't get it. She always has a problem with everything I do, unless if i'm cleaning her house. I am in my late teens. I don't feel I should live because she loves her boyfriend and sister more. She never hugs me or ever said she loves me in 8 years. I don't feel worthy of love anymore. I'm done. I'm more of a night owl than anything, I always loved being alone at night. I am much introverted & shy and that is why family thinks I have mental problems. I don't have any besides social anxiety.

Have to clean the house. Or no we don't have the money. But we just hang out, no money involved. And if I don't go out then we end up doing nothing at all around the house anyways. It makes me mad cause she doesn't like my cousins mom (her sister). She never want me around them too much. I told her I just want to do something other than sit around the house all day everyday. But she only wants me to see my cousin once every month! I'm about to be 18 and I want to go jogging every morning and go out a couple times a week and just hang out. But what should I tell her to let me go out and make her understand that I won't be effected by their hatred for each other?

So i woke up today to the sound of a broken plate. Then more plates were being broken. I though someone was trying to kill my mom so I yelled out her name. She didn't answer so I went to the kitchen to see her breaking plates. She was mumbling something and apologized to me while still breaking plates. She then proceeded to smash our cups and stomp (literally) on our dish rack and break it as well. I yelled at her to stop and she started to cry, and i never seen my mother cry so i started to get cry as well. After everything she again mumbled sorry to me and went back inside her room. She came out and told me "Sorry honey, it's just that i clean something and then it gets dirty again because of the upstairs neighbor." and she just laughed and went on with cleaning the glass. Honesty I didn't know what to do. Is there something wrong with my mom? She does have depression so maybe that's a factor. My dad is married to my mom but hes working at this hour, after everything he did come home and told my mom that she scared him. But he had to go back to work.

My husband kicked out my step-daughter this past Monday because her and I got into a big argument over nothing. She was so disrespectful towards me for no reason really. He got fed up with her attitude and kicked her out. Yesterday she came to the house before my husband and I got home and got some stuff of hers. So this morning I was about to head out to work, and I heard my front door slamming, it was her. She came inside my house with her attitude and starting going back and forth between the room she was staying and the garage. I told her " leave me my house key at the table before you leave, and next time you want to come to the house you need to call" she responded and said " Shut the F*** up, I'm not giving you the key, I needed to come get my other stuff"..... it made me upset. Told her she needed to get out the house and she just slammed the front door again and left. What should I do? Do I tell my husband about it? He's pretty sad that he kicked her out. he's been pretty quiet this past days. HELP. Yes, the house belong to me before the marriage. Her parents been divorce for more than 12 years now. She was raise by her mom, and then her mom kicked her out because she was rude to her and wanted to be the grown up at her mom's house.She moved in with her dad, and after we got married she moved in with this guy, that relationship didn't last and then she moved in with us. .
