My supposed "mother" told me to kill myself. She said she s tired of dealing with me. My supposed "sister" tells me everyday who much of a piece of **** I am. And that I should kill myself every day. My supposed "father" blames everything on me. All his problems are my fault. Both my parents are tired of me being alive. They just want me dead. And I can t move out. I am 18, but I can t find a job and I m a duel enrollment student, so I m still partly in high school. I do attend college but they don t have any dorms for students. I don t know what I m supposed to do. I can t take this one more day. I honestly just want to listen to them and end it all. All I have left is my dog, and they barely let me do anything with her. They say she's not mine and keep me from her, when she is all I have.

I have been asking for a new phone since about 3 months ago. I ve always wanted an Iphone so I asked my dad about it. The first month he said "Okay I ll get it for you next month" well a month went by and I asked him "Hey dad are we going to buy the phone?" He said "In two weeks" I felt a little bit frustrated but I accepted to wait for 2 weeks. Two weeks went by and I asked him and he said "in 2 more weeks" i started to lose my patince but i waited. 3 weeks went by and so i asked him just one more time. . He said he ll get me it for Christmas. Which means id have to wait another 4 months! I know a phone is a privelage but I ve done good to earn it. I have 95 s and above and I listen to my parents. I m not a bad kid, sure I have things to work on but I just can t seem to understand why my dad won t get me a phone. Anybody may have an idea? Money is not the issue, theres a deal where the phone is as low as 99.99$. Please help. Thank you god bless

I am 16 years old and I come from a wealthy family. But my mom is seriously a burden. She is unbelievably stupid and lazy. She is a stay at home mom and gold digger. She yells at me to clean the whole house and she spends all of her time shopping. And she never lets me go out or have friends. The only time I interact with people is at school. And I am forced to go to bed at 9:00 everynight and I if don't have a least a 3.5 GPA she will yell at me for weeks and take away everything I have. She forces me to do well in school when she hasn't worked a day in her life. She always texts me saying she is too busy to pick me up from school. Like busy buying shoes. And I have to wait in the library for hours. And she doesn't want me to drive, because she says I'm immature. Says the b/tch who doesn't know what a job is. SHE IS SERIOUSLY A B/TCH!! I don't know what her problem is!! She spends all of her time buying stupid sh!t for herself with my dads money. And she is so cheap with me, she doesn't want to spend a dime on me. I seriously hate her and I never want to see her again once I move out. My dad is always working so I am stuck at home with her. Any advice for my problem would help, thanks..

What should I do my dad always takes my sisters side and even my therapist is iffy around my dad. My dad attacks me first and gives me all the punishments and never tells any of the other kids in the house off. My dad had abuse issues as a kid and now from him im starting to get more and more aggressive. He threaten me like he is gonna beat me and I'm not kidding about this. I was sick the other days and my sister just pulls off the blanket and starts laughing at me. I managed to pull it off of her lock and remember I had a huge headache at the time. She calls dad so dad can once again take her side for something that's her fault. He yells why I am in her face, SHE GOT IN MY FACE AND TOOK THE BLANKET WHEN I WAS HAVING HEADACHE AND MIGRAIN ISSUES. It's only natural I ask her for the phone so I can tell my side of the story. Also I gave her space she was just being irrational and Lieing by saying I was in her face. I was always moms little boy and my sister was always daddies little girl. I hate her so much, I decided to tell a more mild story cause the abusive ones are to large. Even when I'm a young little boy with confidence I was gonna make it through school. My dad said life is nothing more then being behind a desk for 40 years and that I should be Christian and stuff like that. Also I was a little boy when he said life was horrible. Also my dads abuse got really bad after I decided to be atheist. I just think of hanging myself and saying I never loved you.

I ordered a pizza at 10:00 AM. They told me it would take 45 minutes, I ordered it right when they opened! Now it's 3:03 PM. It's been 6 hours!! I am starving, I tried calling about 20 times, no one answered. What should I do?

Okay my parents divorced almost 2 years ago and my mom now wants to move 2 hours away...I don't want to go with her but I don't want to make her mad or upset. Moving with her means having to fit in all over again and I just no I can't move I don't want to. She is telling me I don't really have a choice but my dad works for the goverment and he says I have a choice because I'm 14 i just have to stand my ground on my choice. Which I agree with that. If it gets bad enough I know I'm going to have to go to court but I just wanted some advice....

Over the years little by little I could tell my mom was crazy (not crazy as in mentally crazy but...) but its crossed the line and i need help. So we cannt afford rent she hasnt had a job in years but weve been barly passing by the months, because she has an Uber driver. but this month we havent even paid and we need 3k 1.5k for this month and 1.5k for the next on the 1-5 or we will get locked out. Then we were trying to move to another place before then. My mom has so much bad credit and bad history and is in debt and she cant take care of me, i got a job and its still not enough. I was saying I move to my friends moms house she will provide me with a free home and a job that pays 12 per hour. Then she starts getting to her usual self and starts saying "No!! shes trying to kill you or shes winning you over through witch craft" and so on and so on (similar stuff like this been happening for a long time,) sometimes i cant see other family members because of her. I want to just move away but im 17 and if i move out she will call the cops on me or something and lie to them etc.

I was talking couple people I work with about a situation I'm going through with my mom. I won't speak on the exact issue but she keeps trying to pressure me into doing something I don't want or don't thinks in my best interest.. People at work keep telling me I might want to listen because a mother knows her child... Would y'all consider that to be a true statement? I know it's a funny question but it's just made me wonder haha

In this question im not complaining i just want advice before i go crazy. Im 15 and live with with my dad, mom, and nephew who is 4. My mom is the rudest person ever. She so negative and she insults me and my frie ds on a daily basis. My cousin and dad even think shes cruel. My nephew makes everything worse. He always hits me everytime he walks by me and always does anything to annoy me. If ever tell him to stop my mom yells at me to go somehwere else and that she doesnt want to see or hear me again. And then she calls me randomly. I already go to school this is my 3rd week now, i dont need her complaining about me everyday. My dad notices how cold hearted she is but he doesnt leave her because sometimes she turns into a drug addict when she gets her pills. She already disowned my brother and sister. My nephew too is evil and will do anything to annoy me. My dad says to just ignore it and most the time im quiet anyways. Should i just ignore the both of them and do what i want? Should i just do me?

I went roller skating in one of them big rinks this morning. And this man be yelling at his daughter and swearing at her and she was only like 6. He was mad cuz she was just holding the rail (scared of falling) and not skating when he paid money for her to skate. Only £4, cheapskate. Omg cheapSKATE. And she was crying and he pulled her away from the rail and she fell. And he just carried on yelling while she was on the floor crying. all these adults never said anything to this man. Even my grandma didn't say anything to him. She just muttered things about him and that "poor child". I mean my dad is evil but not that bad, cuz even he was annoyed about it. Especially when the kid is like 6. And the man and the girl left the rink cuz the skate marshal guy said they was blocking other people. He probly murdered her when they got outside to their car. Why do they have kids if they're gonna be mean to them!?!?

This may sound stupid to ask but I always find people who have it worse than me...I just want to know if I should do anything about it or if it is normal. First of all , I'm not looking for pity, I'm frustrated and I want some out put on it....my father was physically abused as a child, he was raised in a culture where it was ok to hit your kids, my mom was too. However, my mom grew up believing it was wrong and never touches me, she just yells really loud. But my father thinks me and my sisters are spoiled and that hitting us would be good discipline. My mom normally stops him though. But the times he has hit me across the face or socked me in the gut, he makes sure she is downstairs or not in the house. I remember being kicked as a 5 year old when my mom was in the hospital. And he keeps telling me this degrading stuff, like that I'm stupid and I never use my brain and that I am lazy and I act like a spoiled teenager and that if I commited suicide he would be fine with it

First all i know life is hard and it aint easy but anyways here the story. I was gonna graduate this year but my mom kicked me out the house because i did something bad and sent me to another state to live with my grandma i wont get my diploma into Nov-Jan. I turn 18 in Nov and i don't know if i should move out. My uncles treating me like sh#t sometimes in public and at work one of these days i am do something crazy beat they *** infront errybody. The thing i dont get is my parents want me to move in Back with them as soon i get my diploma i think why should i move back if they kicked me out. I am planning to colorado and work for my cousins landscaping business. Any advice? I do love my parents i sometimes i sent them money and talk to them on the phone.i help out my parents no matter what.

Hey guys. I'm 13 and its getting reallyyyy annoying how my family asks me to do soo many things for the like "Go get me this" "Run upstairs and get me this" "Go do this" and I have a foot problem which hurts when I walk but they tell me its fine. I've told them so many times to stop asking me to do every little thing but they don't. Plus they never say thanks. maybe they said it 3 times my whole life. And when I mess up on something they yell at me and make me cry. I'm definitely not over reacting. It's getting out of hand. Please help me I can't take it anymore. I AM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT MY LIFE...IM JUST ASKING FOR SOME HELP

---if the son, husband, and father were the same person?

So my mom set up my bank account forever ago so it's a conjoined account where my mom can only see what I'm doing with my money. I didn't think she checked up on it but apparently she did and saw that I withdrew 6000 dollars to fix up my car from an accident (did not want to go through insurance). And I don't wanna tell her that I got into a second accident cuz then I don't wanna get a lecture or some sh*t. I'm a grown a** man who can take care of myself and can respond to my own problems. Bottom line what should I tell my parents what I did with 6000 dollars that sounds responsible.

I am 15. I was raped two months ago when I was walking alone at night. It is taking a lot of courage to even say this online. I cannot bear to go though with this, and my parents are not letting me get an abortion. I don't know what to do.

I don t really do this kind of thing but really just want to help my friend. Please help vote Bryce Isaac (Ylro DC) in the following baby photo contest. http://s.heyo.com/4267d2?media=622cb8bf-c137-4496-841e-4273eeea00fb

I came home for the week (and my 24th birthday) to see my parents. My dad has always had phases where he will lose his temper since I was 10. Its not your stereotypical bad mood as he yells, will say anything to hurt you and doesnt talk afterwards (sometimes for days). Yesterday he had another episode for no reason, when I spoke to him today he said he doesnt want to know me anymore and that he won t be attending my graduation in a few weeks. I am tired and fed up of all this so looking to get a flight home on Monday morning- my mum thinks I shouldn t waste the money and wait until my flight on Wednesday. Am I being unreasonable to return home early?

My father love him to death, but he emotionally neglects me, he tries to control me, (he's a marine), I left so I could live with my mom but she needs to work for awhile to save money and I live with close family friends, my dad and his wife both are angry at me, am I in the wrong?

Whenever she's mad she calls me bad names and tells me to clean my room and stuff she calls me pig,s*ut,b**ch..and other bad names.SHe makes me want to kill myself.She always ruins my mood and she makes me cry a lot.I just wish I was away from her.i don't want to live with her anymore

So alright here's the back story to the whole sitch. My great grandmother who I'll name Sarah & my great grandfather who I'll call Pedro. They're my grandpa's (RIP) parents. Anywho his brother, my uncle was my grandpa Pedro' s real son, he didn't know that. He had gotten into trouble so my grandma Sarah sent my grandpa Pedro to fix hit, which resulted in him getting shot & killed right on the spot, right infront his son, my grandpa. Now fast forward they were cool as brothers talking, 8 years ago, my grandpa died, & my uncle literally cut off contact with all of us. Meaning my grandpa's kids, grandchildren, great grandchildren. He talks **** about my grandpa & walks right past us, this has bothered me so much. I want to say something, is there anyway to talk sense into him? Help.

Is it right for my step daughter of whom I've helped raised for the past 13 years to say that I no longer exist in her world? She was only 6 when her mom and I got married and I'm the closest thing to a father that she knows. I helped her with her homework, taught her how to drive, basically be the dad that my dad never was. She is now 19 and recently moved out to be with her first boyfriend without even consulting me or her mother. Is she right for saying that I no longer exist?

I have something wrong I will be fine one min then the next I'm flipping out cursing calling my love ones very filthy and bad things I get so mad I start breaking things but one of the big things that scares me is in my head I see my lovers one dead I think about hurting and killing people I have never seen before it's sick my brain won't let these thoughts go away some of the things I think of doing are sick I can't go into public places with out feeling this way I think people are talking about me watch me I stay at my house inside all day almost every day for years now some one please help me tell me some idea of what I can do and what it wrong with me

My sister and I had a huge fight. She came to me yelling for me to do something. So I then told her I ll do it later. Then she started cursing and hitting me. Then we started fighting. Who s started the fight? For some reason my mother blames and I just want to know what I did wrong? Btw my sister is 6 years older than me.

Last fight i think he called her a dog and said "Its not choice just do it" When he wanted her to help my dad bring my autistic sister to the zoo when my mom had had an allergic reaction the other day and everything made her itch and she had blisters. He does this alot and makes fun of my mom because shes slightly overweight even though shes bringing her weight down. He also says she does nothing even though she takes care of me and my autistic sister 5 - 6 days a week alone. What should i do? He scares me and i want to help my mom.

So my brother left for college yesterday. I went to go drop him off. We were very close. For 16 years of my life we have been together laughed and everything. Now he's gone and the house is quiet not much to do and all. And if I start playing a game we used to play or watch a tv show we used to watch I get extremely sad and start to cry. I need help on how to stop!

I hate the guy my mom with how do I get him to leave

I used to love my big family, I ve enjoyed the company of my cousins sisters ....not anymore. I prefer to live alone and staying alone weeks doesn't bother me anymore.

We live in a duplex. It's bigger than an apartment, a little more spread out, but stil not as big as a house. When we moved in, and since we've lived in apartments, I've always asked my husband not to allow his son to play in the living room. He always leaves toys and food laying around. He does sort of pick them up, but I always have to go through and pick up little pieces and vacuum crumbs...I hate it. It's an inconvenience. It's also a pain in the butt because he puts his kid crap on the tv, so I'm forced to hole up in our room. It's been an increased problem between my husband and I. He says all kids play in the living room, and the main problem is he doesn't have cable in his room to watch while he plays. I got cable in his room and he's still in the living room. His only excuse now is that kids should be allowed to play in the living room. I don't see why he HAS to play in the living room when he has a tv with cable, a huge room (the size of the living room), a ton of toys that he doesn't have to share...it makes no sense to me why my husband just can't tell him no.

my sister left for college last week and I still can't stop crying. we are very close, share a room and are 2 years apart. I am so upset and can't stop crying. I try to distract myself as mush as possible but my mind always goes circling back to how much I miss her. I cried all through the night and cried myself to sleep, I'm so upset. we text and FaceTime but I still cry all the time. how long until I will stop crying? and is it normal to be this upset for this long?

I'm currently living in a residence owned by my aunt, paid for by my grandmother/grandfather. She's evicting me(& my roommate) out. She has this goal that she's gonna sell it for $125,000. Townhouse. Could be a nice house, but it has years of cat damage, mold, out-of-date furnishings(stove, cabinets, sink/counter tops, bathrooms, tubs/showers, etc). I've lived here for three years. I originally moved in with my grandmother(mom's mom), from the middle of nowhere, from my dad's. I moved because I thought it would be better work opportunity/community college right down the street. I've applied everywhere I could apply. I've worked a few jobs(part time, minimum wage at supermarket; odd/short term jobs through temp services, etc). All in all, I probably made $8,000 from these jobs, if not more, possibly $12,000. I admit, I have a spending problem. I've applied everywhere I could apply. At this point, I wish I could go to a community college & do a program, whether it be welding, pharmacy technician, etc, but she's evicting me. My father lives 30 minutes away, out-of-state. I don't feel like I wasted time, because I'm only 21, I didn't know exactly what I wanted to do 3 years ago, 2 years ago, even last year. One of my other aunt's(dad's sister) always told me, not to go to school for anything you're not serious about. You will not only waste money, but also time, that you can't get back. I already wasted another $5,000 on a semester at college, on general studies. If I could go back in time & slap my younger self, I would. Why didn't I just spend that $5,000 on a program that would've gave me a certificate that translates to a job? General studies, ugh. What this has to do with my aunt is simple. This year, I had offers to get three jobs(Fire Watch at Shipyard, extremely physical carrying around a 30+ pound extinguisher & boring, but long hours every week, so in the long run, it would've been worth it; a warehouse job making $12/hr; an automotive helper making $12/hr. Of the three, I like the warehouse job better, because over the phone, the guy told me they give raises of $1 every 3 months, teach you how to operate forklift/electric standing pallet jack, move you to $14 if you successfully complete that, where you max out at $16/$18, at the end of your one year(when you got moved to forklift/electric jack operator, your year resets; unless you were already at a higher pay rate). My grandmother would've gave me gas money to go to job 2 & 3. For the Fire Watch job, the issue was that my vehicle had failed inspection, but was in process of being fixed. One of the main issues(brake rotors) was already fixed. The only thing left was brake light(easily replaceable), & fog lamp. They called me to start work almost everyday for 2 weeks. The vehicle is in my grandmother's name. My aunt refused to allow me to drive the car because of the rejection sticker, I know it's illegal. But for the amount of time it was taking to fix the car, I think I would've been fine slipping to work & driving back home while I was fixing the errors. She cost me three decent jobs. Wouldn't let my grandmother give me gas money for the other two, that I would've easily paid back in a week, or two, of working. My aunt used to bully my mother. I believe she has something out towards me because I'm my mother's son. She taught my mother to call rape on my father. My mother has her own issues. My mother is 60+ years old, didn't work the majority of her life, in a nursing home. My aunt wants to make me the same way. She believes my mother's issues were genetically inherited by me. The majority of my mother's traits are her personality. Also, my mother never could drive. I've driven to/in Washington, DC, multiple trips on i-95. I want to go to school in Florida. I want to go to New York City, for New Year's Eve. I'm a damn good writer. I think I'd be good at a lot, if I had certifications for it. Just don't have the resources to obtain them. I've literally applied everywhere(fast food, retail/grocery, warehouses, etc). I've heard from a person that managers here only hire females for most positions. It's not an issue of me "refusing" jobs, it's an issue of me not being offered jobs. Most employees have been there for at least 2, maybe even 3-5 years. That tells me they're not hiring, when you see the same faces. My roommate wants to move to the city, but he loses jobs more than he changes his underwear. He's ex military. He gets some decent paying jobs, forklift operator, warehouse jobs, etc. My aunt thinks I'm either supposed to move with him or return to my dad's. My dad taught me nothing in my youth, no social skills, no life skills, nothing. All he taught me was to come home, get on the bed, & go to sleep. I don't want to return to that environment. I don't want it to come down to me applying to minimum wage jobs. My roommate would take all of my money if I did that. & what if I was made only part time? That warrants you not even $800/month. Last part time job I worked, 24 hours week, $720. Some weeks, I was only scheduled for 8-16 hours. My roommate probably wouldn't even let me live with him. & he's not just a roommate, he's a friend. But he's not gonna let me live with him, working a part time minimum wage job. As if it's my choice. I think I could've went to school this year, had I went back to my dad's. However, I feel like I need to help my friend. He lost his vehicle this year. He hasn't rebounded since. He's made some bad financial choices, himself. Spending $15-$20 to go on dates, out to clubs with friends, taking me along, spending the addition amount, getting drinks, multiple times in a month. He eats rather expensive, as well. When he "has" the money, he's spend $10-$15 on a meal, for me & him. I told him I'd rather have a tub of Hillshire Farm Turkey for a sandwich. Re-eat value & longevity. Some of the food he makes has no re-eat value/longevity. I'm scared that he's gonna lose his job again, I'm not gonna start work, or I'm gonna have to take a minimum wage job, which would mean me returning to my dads, cause I'm not about to pay rent/utilities making only $720/month(assuming I'm not full time). & he makes more money than me. He shouldn't have to settle for less because I'm there. I partially feel like he owes me. I can't go to school this year, because if I did, he'd be forced to go back to his parents, no vehicle. His parents live 6 hours, 2-3 states away. He actually has a son here, too, just turned one. Now I'm stuck in poverty for an additional year. Next year, I'm going to school; no exceptions. I don't care if he's at my dad's with me. I'm going to take a welding program so I can get welding employment. My aunt is wrong to put us out. It's already hard enough on me that I can't go to school this year, but could've. I've told her that if she helps me by me attending a program, when I get employed, I'll make sure I look out for her. She doesn't care. My aunt would love to get me into a group home, like my mother is. So I can sit there & rot. Because it's the "easy" solution. She wants to make it seem like I have an intellectual disability, which I don't. I can drive, which my mother couldn't. She thinks the solution is me make a false claim that I'm mentally retarded so I can get on SSI, be labeled as having an "intellectual disability" so I can be accepted into a group home. That doesn't come with learning a skill, getting a career, etc. I'll be there forever. I'm not letting them take my life from me because it makes things "easier" on them. http://www.vbgov.com/government/departments/human-services/your-dhs/Pages/ds-supportive-living-program.aspx https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_of_poverty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_class_in_the_United_States

I drank a beer on his birthday (im 19, girl), and eceryone acted like i killed someone, but my brother even gets drunk and no one bats an eye ( he is 26 but did this even when he was 18), he also smokes, if i were to smoke i would get in trouble. He also swears, even in front of my mom and no one says anything... whatever he does is much more acceptabile than if i did it, and its not only age... It looks as though its more acceptable for men to drink, eat in less civilised manners and so on... while its not ok if girls do it... its not only my brother but all men i know... why are guys accepted with their natural behaviours and the way they are and girls arent. Its not like j signed up for these unfair rules... I also feel like guys are much more respected andbappreciated automatically... Is ot just me or does this happen to other people too?

my sister left for college yesterday and we are very close. we share a room and we are only 3 years apart. I was crying like crazy all of yesterday and all night, I barely slept. we plan to text and FaceTime but I don't know how often. I want to text her all day because I miss her so much but I know that I shouldnt because she needs her space. I can't stop crying and I just get even more upset when I walk into my room because all of her stuff is gone. how often should we text and what should I do about my room?

I'm almost 13 and my sisters 18. We aren't close but I wanna be. She tells on me for everything but I keep all her secrets. She never lets me drink a little or smoke. I don't need hate about the alcohol or smoking! What can I do to get close to her?! Whenever I try she starts being a little bi**h. Please help. I just met her boyfriend last night and then we snapchatted for an hour and a half. He's really cool but she's not so fun. Please help!!

My little sister is a super genius. Shes 18 and got into Harvard. While I, 21 years old, am in a state school. The first two years in college where rough and i didnt do so well. But, during my junior year I started to do so much better. My mo is always saying stuff like... "You're a disappointment, you're lazy, not good enough, couldn't you have just gone to Duke." She says she's worried that I wont get a job. I dont know what to do. Everything is a comparison to my sister and everything I do is wrong.She also favors her. She got a car before ne, she got her own credit card before me, everything is just backwards. what do I do? I'm so depressed. I feel like I'm not worthy.

So I'm in desperate need of some sort of lock on my door, cause I'm sick of having absolutely no privacy whatsoever. Anyone and everyone barges in my room all the time, and it's gotten to the point where I'm just plain annoyed. I really just want it for privacy, because whenever I'm changing, I'm tired of my parents barging in out of no where-- not fun :( Also, my brother is absolutely crazy, and every time he gets mad for no reasons and tries to attack me, my room is my safe zone, but it'd be easier to have a lock instead of leaning on the door for hours, wasting time. And just so you know, I do actually have a lock, but the problem is a long time ago I made the stupid mistake of locking myself in, so my dad had to break the lock, so it only works twisting right. I did try talking to them, so don't suggest that, because I only got this ridiculous speech from my dad about respecting people's privacy, and that me and my brother need to learn how to treat each other fairy-- yeah, my brother won't listen to me if I paid him. And my dad barged in my room the next morning anyway, so his speech is valueless to me. The worst part is that my brother has a working lock and my parents, it's just me, and they won't let me get one, not even with my own money. I even tried putting bricks by my door, but that was useless cause my mom made me toss them out (I don't blame her, they were kinda annoying) so now I'm desperate!! Please help, and sorry if this is long!! Also, my door opens towards my room, and please, no answers like drilling holes and using chairs and definitely not talking to them-- that'll NEVER work.

My mom is 45 she seriously drop dead gorgeous! She has great style and men are always looking at her! Me on the other hand I'm 25 and I'm not even half as good looking as her. like I never have guys looking at me like they look at my mom. They always think she is my friend and if we are together she is the one to get noticed. How do I spice up my look?

I am a 25 year old single guy with a 15 year old niece Jill, my sister's daughter. Jill often comes to my house for help with her homework. If we finish her homework late she spends the night a my house and I take her to school the next morning. She told me she was a nervous wreck from her mom and dad fighting all the time and they were getting a divorce. She wanted to stay with me until the divorce was final. I told her that was OK with me but she needed her parents OK which I thought would not happen. However her parents thought it was best for her not to see them fighting all the time and agreed they could stay with me until there divorce was final. I was very surprised by their decision but I think they were thinking of what their fighting was doing to Jill. Jill moved in with me and has been living with me for 2 months. She is a very nice person and is no longer depressed. We have had a lot of fun time together going to school events and sporting events. Jill ask me if I would adopt her so she could stay with me permanently. I told her that I doubt if her parents would let that happen. I don't know if you can adopt someone that has living parents. Does anyone know if that can be done?

Whenever I say Taylor Swift to my dad, my dad says a weirdo cartoon I don't like because I like Friends, not weirdo shows. My friends' dads don't do this. When I get married, I would rather marry Niall Horan when I get married instead of a weirdo cartoon. I would rather marry Harry Styles instead of a weirdo cartoon. I am too young to get married because I am still in school, and I am only 16, so I am still in school, which is High School. My friends' dads don't do this because they are nice people and don't keep telling my friends which characters and celebrities they would like to marry. Why does my dad teases me? Can you help? Thanks.

I'm a 15 year old girl. Me and my dad like that his massive argument a couple of hours ago and he was so angry, he hit me across the face really hard. I have a bruise where he hit me, and I think I chipped a tooth. This is the first time he hit me in my life, and I'm scared it's gonna happen again. I'm too scared to face my dad right now, so I'm staying my room. What should I do?

Little bit of background:- I have been with my lovely boyfriend for over a year now. My family disapproves of him because mom disapproves of him; she thinks he's up to something and when that's proven wrong, he must be up to something else. No one has even met him properly but they are all prejudiced against him and think that he means me harm. I have refused to break up with him just because of their unjustified prejudices. My dad passed away last month. I miss him terribly; he was my hero. I put on a stoic appearance so that I can strong for my mother. This got translated as "she doesn't care about her dad". My family (my two sisters, mom and brother) comfort and hold each other but no one comforts me. They blame me for his death because I made him so unhappy by choosing my boyfriend. Rubbing salt into wound.. Yesterday, I drove my mother three hundred miles to meet my siblings. I didn't plan on staying because they all gang up and bully me about how my choices killed my dad. When I wanted to leave, my brother started hitting on my head with my handbag; I ran outside to drive off and he dragged me into the house and threatened to kill me with a hammer. I agreed to stay as I had no other option. I saw my mom was so scared, so I went to comfort her; she turned on me and said that I deserved the beating, and that much more sorrows are going to come in my life because of my "**** boyfriend". They've all turned against, more so than ever. Should I break contact with them? I am 27, my older brother is 33. Also, we come from an Asian background; but I am much more Western in my thinking.

So I've been thinking about my realtionship with my mother and we always had fights and disagreements. When I was younger she would dress me like her, I would sleep in bed with her until 10 years old and when I was like 7 and 8 she even went on school trips with me because she was good with the teacher! Also, she would always want me to have the best grades and be first in competitions. Later, when we moved and I was around 12 or so I started to fight more and more, and close off. I got lost in music or writing and was quite bullied in my school but my parents would blame me for it. My mother never really understood what was going on and my father was passive and listened to only her part of the story. She even chose high school for me even though I had different interestes! She said this is better and signed me up. Later they wanted me to work in that field but somehow I fough through it. I even went and am going to university pursuing what I always wanted. They never wanted to give me money for entrance tests so I did all that by myself. Earned money, staretd college later but I am doing it. I think that the reason for even more fights now is because I'm doing what i want to. Our relationship is terrible. My dad is working as usual and barely talking to me, because he never had a good connection with me (he's like in his own world and listens onlys to my mom) and my mom hasnt worked since she had me and know got a dog with which she is opssesed with now To add. She is rude to me and my dad but good to the neigbours. She only cares about the dog, everything in the house is a mess. And when I have to go to work or ride for two hours to go to college she doesn't even welcome me with something that could ease my troubles. I have a boyfriend and he doesn't want to come over because he can't stand my parents and how they treated me. And no I can't move out, I'm paying for my education. I just want it to get better. Why is this happening?

It's my older sister's 19th birthday today. Every birthday she's had ever since she was 7, she's been like "today is about nobody else, but me". She's still like that now. Every birthday she has, she demands attention from everyone, and I mean everyone. She even flips whenever she doesn't get a birthday card or present from guests at her parties. Is my sister being self-centered, or should people be like this on their birthdays?

Ok, my gran was muslim, but she sang christian songs sometimes. When my grandfather died, she started sleeping on the couch and kept her bedroom door shut and wanted no one to go into the bedroom. The bedroom was Full of stuff everywhere, heeps of clothing on the bed. Like a storeroom. She kept all of my grandads clothes and stuff for years and years. She also collected random stuff(rubbish) like sticks and anything that needs to be thrown away... and stored it away or placed them nicely somewhere. She even kept tissues and elastics...and chocolate wrappers and everything...She never combed her hair, just wore a scarf and her hair was like a biiig dreaded bun. She also didnt like it when we washed our hair, so she only allowed us to wash it 4 times a year. She always broke off a good time, like when i had a birthday party with two friends, she threw them out and every birthday i had to sit at the table alone with my cake and my friends would stand outside and try to sneak in, but she knew and she ws ready for them to throw them out. She alwys switch the tv off in our faces cos she wanted to sleep and she slept in the lounge. She didnt allow us to switch on the lights and made us use candle light. The lights dont use much elec. here in my country. She never wanted me to have friends or my mom to have bfs. She chased away my mom's bfs. She made me spend eid with her, but christmas time she ignore us and dont wish us like we wished her. she didnt allow friends over christmas too

im 14 and still get hit not spanked im not a bad child i barely go out with my friends im normally in the house with my brother we do chores and if i dont wash dishes or something he will hit me or if i try to tell my side of the story he will hit me then he will ask why are you crying and to stop help

My husband is the only child. His parents are still together. We visit them every so often. His parents has this, I don't want to talk to you vibe about them selves to me. Parents do speak to me. But there conversation don't be like it is with my husband babbymomma. Which the bbymomma doesn't like me at all for some reason. Im not jealous, Im just curious of why that is. When I'm in the room alone with my in-laws. You can mostly hear crickets. When my cooking is brought up. It's so funny to my MIL. Like she try finds flaws about me. I'm a good person don't do drugs,club or never been in a fight. So why the in-laws gives me cold vibes about themselves? Married two years now

I have been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years. My family seems to just hate him and honestly I am sick and tired of the immature and petty things they do. I met my boyfriend right when my grandmother was dying. She had been sick for years. He was such a comfort when it was happening. I did take him to the funeral to be with me. I needed his support. Though they haven't articulated it, I think my family was irritated by this. After the funeral they got together to eat and I didn't go. I left with my boyfriend. They act like I wasn't there for her. I was there every day I could be there. I knew that hospital back to front. I loved grandmother very much. I tried to be there. My cousin wants to say I wasn't even though I had a job and she has no job and has all day to sit at a hospital. I called out of work when I could and came after my shifts. What business is it of theirs how I grieve? Then last year on Mother's Day they planned to get together and give my granny a card and do this little ceremony to remember her. They never invited me or told me about it beforehand, then criticized me for not being there! I can't make this up!

She uses me for help and for money sometimes and just because we live with her siproblems qster and her cousins and ny aunt talks about us in a rude way she wants to take it out on me and say that she is isn't going anywhere. She caused my phone screen to get cracked that i bought with my own money three days ago helping her carry stuff to public storage store since she is moving to another state. She is saying she wants to rent an apartment for me in this state while moves to another state. I would rather be homeless than take it from her I said. She treats me like crap and my whole is going to move to that state but in different areas. I would be the only one stranded in new york.

Ok. Im a teenager and i should'nt be asking this question. My dad is super cheap and sensitive. I got interested on second hand stuff. So my dad always asks for a lower price everytime i buy something. He makes the price go lower by dividing it to 2. And i also realized that the tablet that im using is fake. Even my phone, laptop, etc. I know that he needs to save not to spend it at all junk. But its gone to far. Buying cheap radios. Asking for lower price. Too sensitive. And cannot be joked to. So tell me. WHAT SHOULD I DO TO STOP HIS EXTREAM CHEAPNESS AND SENSITIVENESS?

My mum recently started downloading bingo apps on her iPad and at first it was moderate and she was winning quite a bit of money. Now her bank account is completely empty and she even takes money from my Dad's bank account without him knowing. If my dad found out she has done this, he would kick her out, therefore she's taken a loan out in my name and using my bank account. This could be bad for me as I'm only 18 and plan on University next year. She's not been paying me for the loan, resulting in me paying for it out of my own money. I put the money from the loan into he bank account which she now spends on the apps, I have told her I will tell my dad if she doesn't stop. Is there anything I can do? I seriously think she's addicted now.

Okay so my dad has been there for a lot when I was younger but now he knows nothing about us. He s turned into an alcoholic which means my mum sleeps on the couch because he snores. She s been sleeping downstairs for almost 12 months now which isn t fair. At night he caused so many arguments and makes me cry myself to sleep with the things he comes out with. This happens with my mum and brother and sister as well. But the thing is, he never remembers any of it and we have to act like everything is fine. In the past he has abused her when he was drunk quite a lot. Much more has happened and made my mum really stressed. She has losted so much weight she s like skin and bone and if she loses anymore it can be extremely dangerous. This morning when my dad was sober he started saying that there is something wrong with my mum when they were arguing. He also said she needs to get her self checked out at a doctors but he was being serious something else really badly happened so I said why are you too still together and my mum said exactly but I don t think my dad will agree on a divorce. They can t get through one day without fighting 😖 I need someone s help

When I was 4, my dad got diagnosed with lung cancer. He smoked 5-7 box of cigarette a day.. and he passed away shortly after when I was 5.. I have no brothers/sisters, and I only have my mom. She's a hardworking lady, but she tries to hide away her stress from me and always seemed happy. But I know she's stressed.. whenever she thinks she's alone, or when she thinks I'm not around, she smokes all the time looking at the ground. I don't know how to help her.. I tried confronting her and she just said "it's only for one time dear.. mommy's okay" Please help me... I'm just a 13 year old girl and I don't want my mom gone as well. I want to keep her happy and stop her from smoking.
