My parents have booked a holiday without me. I am only thirteen and my really mean babysitter is meant to be staying with me to like look after me but I would feel really uncomfortable cause she is very mean and punches me at least once a day, she has also beat me up a couple times. I have told my parents about this and they never listen so I don't know what to do. And my babysitter said if I call the police she'll murder me. Also this means that I don't get a holiday this year. I don't mean for this to sound spoiled, but I am generally a good kid at home and the holidays that we have had in the past have all gone well, but now they have just suddenly decided for me not to come. I have tried speaking with my mum but she just says that I will be fine with my babysitter for a week and that I'm being silly and spoiled. But I don't know what else to do because she has all ready asked this baby sitter and she has said yes.

This man is 60 years old and is proud and stubborn to the extreme. He says he wants to be perfect. Whether or not he has achieved that goal is entirely in his own head. He drives people nuts because he always wants things to be done his way; according to him, only his way is the right way and everyone else who disagrees with him are idiots. He also has the tendency to want to do everything himself, because he has no trust or faith in other people's intelligence. He thinks he is the only person on earth who is close to being the perfect father, the perfect husband and the perfect person, period. If you have the audacity to argue with him, he will point out all your past mistakes from years ago, insult and belittle you and physically assault you if you are not smart enough to back off. "If you can be perfect, then why not?" is his motto. How do I cure this man of his madness?

I was in the bathroom going to take a shower but instead turned the water on cold and sat on the toilet and masturbated like I do usually once a week. My sister needed something in the bathroom but I didnt get to the door because not only was I completely dry but I had lotion on my hands and ... after about a minute my mom pops the lock and opens the door to see me sitting there. My sister was next to her and saw as well (shes 14 and im 15). My mom then closed the door and my sister got her stuff later. What should I do? Is it their fault for invading my privacy or my fault for doing it in the first place?

Home life has become a bit stressful and i just need to blow some steam. Where do i start?? My mom and dad has been sort of cold towards one another. It's the holiday and my mom just wants to spend it in another room than him. My sister has been sort of a ***** towards her. I guess to her it's joking but it annoys me the way she speaks to her... i feel like I've been clinging to my boyfriend too much. I like spending our time together but i don't want him to feel like I'm forcing him to be with me. School doesn't take up enough of my time because i still feel myself just in my thoughts. I really need a change of pace but don't know how to go about it. I cheated on my boyfriend last year and it came to the light a few months ago. Things have been great between the two of us and though it feels like a weight has been lifted, i sometimes just hate myself for doing that to him. i feel as though he wont tell me if it's on his mind because he doesnt want me to feel worst, but i should. The guy i cheated on him with was my best friend. To make matters worse is that i believe i just seized the opportunity rather than actually liked him. I knew he liked me and i mistook my platonic feelings for those of romance. I just wish i could take it all back and still just have my friend. I'm not working becaue traveling alone scares me-especially catching the bus in Detroit. Someone was stabbed to death just waiting on the bus. My brother was beaten just for the fun of it traveling alone.

My sister and i were in the kitchen we were both on ohr phone im 34 shes 29 i was on my phone and i never looked up Becouse i thought it was gonna be my husband who was gonna scare me when i looked uo i saw my grandpa he was lumping like he would do before he died i told my sister did you see that and she said yeah then she told me he was wearing a greyes shirt and khki pants i was shoked becouse thats what we put on on him before he died but she didnt go to the funiral so sge couldnt know

My parents never care for me at all. I do well in school with all A's and some B's. I also take honors classes. However, my parents never seem to think i am ever worth anything. All they do is just criticize me and find flaws in every thing i do. One day they were yelling at me for reasons only they know. I was almost about to cry and they thought this was a joke and started laughing. Everytime they yell, hit, etc to me, and i may seem depressed they call me a girl (in a bad way). this first started about 5-6 years ago but know it has become really bad. i have been suicidal lately but i am still wondering if that is the best way out. i would appreciate any help.

I'm an adult who goes to college. I live on my own and support myself. But sometimes I get lonely and visit relatives who live about an hour away. Well, in a discussion about TV shows, I mentioned liking the Walking Dead. Later, I was told I could not watch their TV anymore because "you like shows that aren't appropriate for children." I would never and have never put on a show like that in front of their kids. But yeah I had my tv privileges taken away at their house and I'm not allowed to touch the remote. I told my brother about this and he says I should apologize. But I'm not sure what to apologize for? I do realize the Walking Dead is for adults, but am I not an adult? They're making me feel like I'm a bad child who got caught watching adult programming. This happened two weeks ago and I haven't visited again. Also, my family never calls or texts me, I'm always excluded from events and never hear about them until afterward. :(

Just for fun. 1. Pick the family's surname; Phoenix, Granger, Hilton, Fawn, Rose, Jameson, Vega 2. Pick the mothers name; Ivy, Isabella, Sophia, Cami, Mia, Amelia 3. Pick the fathers name; Jayden, Blake, Levi, Charlie, Oliver, Anthony, Adrian 4. Pick the daughters name; Louisa, Rain, Li, Blue, Eva, Jazmine, Kay 5. Pick the sons name; Asher, Leo, Luis, Jack, Lee, Austin, Jordan 6. Pick the family pet; Cat, dog, fish, lizard, parrot, snake, micro pig 7. Choose a name for the pet yourself!

There are many issues but a recent one is that he fought a battle with my four year old and lost? Before I tell the story, I must let you know that I am eight and a half months pregnant. He bought my son a ring toss game. They went into the yard with the cousins and began to play. The box said take five steps back and toss at the target. So, my father took five huge man strides back and was about fifteen feet from the target. My four year old said, "I'm smaller.I think I should take five of my steps!" My father said. NO! THIS IS THE LINE!" My son played a couple of minutes and then said he was not having fun. He picked up the target and said, "I want it here." His grandfather said, "NO! THIS IS THE LINE. THIS IS HOW YOU PLAY!" So, my four year old went to the target, picked it up again and said, "CONFISCATED! If you can't play nice, you can't play with it." He then brought it to my husband and asked him to keep it. My father then yelled at my husband to bring it back. My husband just laughed and said, "good luck with that," and walked away. At that point, my father exploded. He turned red in the face and screamed at me and my son, "I'M SICK OF YOU PEOPLE!" He then made the cousins and my mother leave. That was a over a week ago and we haven't heard a word from them. This is fairly typical behavior for him.

So my grandfather was gracious enough to pay for my college, but what he didn't tell me is that, in cooperation with my parents, he filled out student loans in my name. He is threatening not to pay them off unless I marry my step-cousin, who is 10 years younger than me. Like WHAT THE ****!!!

Ik what y'all are going to say "its your decision" but I want opinions. Here's a little about me: I'm 19 and I've been with the man of my dreams for 5 years and were married now. I have a well paying job and he is in the military( reserves for now) and has a job. We have a 4 bedroom house and two dogs and a cat. Should I wait or should I go ahead and have a baby?

ok im a male 21 and yes i still live with my parents, i know, "move out already" that is the plan, but it requires money, i'm working on it i'm hispanic born in the u.s, if that means anything... all my life i was whipped, for small things you might think are stupid, my dad is a pastor at a church, everyone looks up to him.i was forced to go to church as a kid.....i have been whipped for things they say are unholy, like listening to "non christian music" he would yell at me and verbally abuse me all of my life, then he would be nice to me... my mother is trying to "change" me, she says im "selfish for trying to be independent, theres no arguing with them, they will argue untill i shut my mouth and "submit" its all a bunch of 1 - sided arguments she complains at me, i know this seems strange but they seem "fake" to me at times..... I FEEL LIKE IM IN A NUT HOUSE!!!!! I WANT TO "ESCAPE" i dont know how long i will last before i loose my mind..... its like they are bipolar, all my life i have lived in fear, then as i reached the age of 18 i decided i would distant myself and avoid them as much as possible sadly they convinced me to work with my dad...business is going south.....its a sinking ship....i really want to get another job...i feel like they are trying to control me....i tried to become more independent, if i try to be assertive me mom starts to cry! its like they dont want me to be me!!!! DX i'm about to lose it! for example i tried getting my own phone plan, but my mother would try to discourage me, she would say " you just dont want to give me money" i didn't mean to make her cry, i feel she is being childish, she calls me selfish......i'm currently saving money to get me a ticket to "nopegetmeawayfromhere" i don't have any friends to move with....relatives i know are afraid to help me since they know my dad, he's a pastor and people look up to him, my parents try to make me feel like im a criminal.

My dad and I have never gotten along. Growing up he called me fat an constantly put me down. My mom died of cancer 7 years ago. She didn't have a will. My dad had an annuity set up for my brother and I. All three of us got a small check once a month. This year all three of us was supposed to get a big check. My dad an brother both got theirs. I didn't get mine. I feel cheated. My dad said well meet me for breakfast an ill give you some money. I said no. The annuity company is closed today. My dad I believe had it set up so I get no money. How would u handle this? My brother an I live together splitting rent. he's mad at me cause I won't talk to dad.

She expects me to get 95+ in everything,but math(She expects me too get 100 in that) which means she's expecting me to go from being a Above level kid to a freaking genius.

I will married in 2 weeks. With a single man i love. He is oldest and have 2 younger siblings. Just few hours ago his family and himself told me about family secret. This is how he talked to me: John: "15 years ago.. my dad remarry again. I was disappointed and known this old woman whom i had sex with. I didnt know She got pregnant. She came to my dad office.. For the good sake of myself.. my dad never tell me and he sent me study abroad. The woman disappeared with money from my dad and the baby stay in my house pretend that it was my stepmother baby. Last year christmas.. my family had this discussion.. and they told me about the woman who pregnant.. and my youngest brother is actually my son.. the whole family shocked including my "son". But we all decided to act like nothing happen. And time goes by we all act like normal like there never was a story like this. Now we are getting married.. you should know my biggest secret. Im sorry to keep it this long"----- I was shocked. What shall i do? My fiance keep trying to convince me that it was past.. people do mistake.. etc.. But its hard for me. And they admit.. he really look like him. Shall i recall my wedding? I really feel disgusted.

my family keeps blaming me for all their problems, my brother blames me for his rage issue my mom blames me for her smoking and my dad blames me for his drinking and i cant stand it anymore, if my brother throws a fit and breaks a frame with my picture in it, i get blamed for making the picture, if the dog gets a cigarett bud, i get blamed for making her smoke i get blamed for the stupidest things, i have my problems too, and also i have autism and adhd that they pretend i dont have like when i ask for help, i can even ask a question without being yelled at, and my brother,(who is 17 years old,) says things to me like "your not going to do anything good with your life" "your a fat,lazy, self abzorbed peice of sh!t" and mean things like that, and when i tell my mom after he says that for the 50th time she says "well you are" and some times i do think of myself that way because they say it so much, and i used to go to a therapist but they never elped because one day i was so angry i said i wanted to kill myself (though i really didn't, i was just super angry, u know,) and they took me to the hospital bla bla bla and 5 hours later i got home and was screamed at more, so now i have lost my trust in all therapists so i have no one, my mom doesn't listen, the onlytime i see my dad is when hes drunk, and my brother you should know why, how do i get out of this slump?

I know it may not seem like a huge deal, but I am a strong believer in an individual being able to make their own decisions. Today, my parents have decided that we are all going to see a movie together as a family. I believe the movie looks boring and would rather not go. the movie is about a family that is broken and turns to prayer to fix them. not only do I 1. believe that my parents are making us go to this in order for us to have some epiphany about family, but I 2. am feeling extremely violated that they are not giving us a choice. Already today, I have suggested multiple family activities, only to be shot down. Never have I persisted and made the family do an activity not everyone wanted to do. I have suggested going to see a different movie that everybody discusses and agrees upon, but my parents claim that they want to go to support the creators. They have also threatened that this week will be my worst if I do not go. I know that the obvious answer is "stop being so pushy and annoying and just go", but this really strikes a chord with my beliefs in individualism. I can tell that neither of my sisters want to go either, but I am the only one willing to confront our parents about it. How can I talk to them respectfully and calmly about this without looking like a whiny and disrespectful teenage brat?

I need to run away for a night or two. But I'm coming back right away, so I won't need a lot of food or clothes. I also don't want to miss school (yeah I know I'm really ******* stupid ha), so I'm planning on leaving for school before my parents wake up and just not coming back for a while. Problem is- I don't know where a I can stay/ sleep at. Should I just stay awake all night at some park and go to school in the morning? I don't really trust my friends and their parents with not calling my parents. And what do I need to take with me? Please don't give me the "don't run away dear" speech, thanks. <3

It know firsthand that it is not. I am 13 and the oldest of 3 siblings, I have a 8 year old brother and 4 year old sister. My brother and I used to be stubborn children, but our mother would give us time outs, take privileges away, and send us to our rooms. We do not get in much trouble now because we have learned our lesson, and when we have a problem we solve it with words not physical contact. My sister though is another story, she fits the stereotype of the bratty youngest child and she throws tantrums slams doors and break things. So my parents resort to a spanking with her most of the time because of her actions. When she has a problem or gets annoyed she hits and kicks, which me and my brother never did. She yells ans screams and gets spanked, yet she always gets her way. She started arguing with my brother today, he retorted back and my dad yelled at my brother "Not to start anything please." All the adults in my family are AFRAID of her tantrums, I think it is because she gets spanked so she is more irritable. Once my grandmother had to hit her, and she never hit a child in her life, ever. Does she act this way because she is spanked? Or is she just plain spoiled?

I want to run away for a night or two. I ve been planning on going to school before my parents get up and just not coming back, but I don t know where I can stay and what to take with me. I will come back after a night or two out, so I won t need a lot of money or clothes. I don t feel like I can trust my friends or their parents with not calling my parents, and I don t want to miss school (yeah I know I m really ******* stupid ha). So what can I do? Go to school and wander around until they find me? Where can I stay, or should I just stay awake all night at some park? Please don t give me the "don t run away, speech, thank you

I created a seperate (although public) Instagram profile to track my weight loss. I didn t put my face on it. I showed the account w my sister. Who use to bully me but hasn t in the past 5 years or so. She showed the account to my brother who made so much fun of me. I didn t say anything to my brother bc he is a bully and I expect him to be mean. But I was really hurt bc she showed it to him. I hadn t asked her not to but I had just figured common sense not to. She says she didn t show it to him maliciously and that I m being mean to say she did. I feel like she broke my trust doing that. There was no way my brother WOULDNT tease me about that.

My mom and I we're in Alaska for a month, and my dad picked us up in our camper and we camped somewhere for a week. I was on the other side of the camper and my parents we're sleeping across from me, and I got a perfect view of the little bedroom area from my side. I woke up seeing my mom giving my dad a *******...They didn't even bother shutting the door either! I watched for a few seconds and pretended I was still asleep, and I took one last glance and that's when my mom saw me...So it was sorta like walking in on them? Dunno. Anyways, when my dad was out getting food I confronted her about it. She completely denied it. "Honey, stop that. You're being immature about it." and "You we're just seeing things, silly." and it infuriates me. I know what I saw, and she did to. I'm 17 for God's sakes! I am CLEARLY old enough to handle the truth, yet she thinks I'm 13 and just continuously coats the story in lies and lies. What should I say to her? And yes, I know that 'parents have to have sex no matter what, it's like a life support.' ****. So please don't tell me said that, please..I just need to know how to get her to tell the TRUTH. Thanks so much.

Okay so school finished at 3:30 and i got home at 5:30 so thats a whole 2 hours. I was out with my friends... I m not allowed to stay out unless I ask my mum first, so I can t tell her that. Where should I say I was please??? I know my sister has told her I ve got home late, so i can t even hide it.. Help me please..

My parents have booked a holiday without me. I am only thirteen and my really mean babysitter is meant to be staying with me to like look after me but I would feel really uncomfortable cause she is very mean and punches me at least once a day, she has also beat me up a couple times. I have told my parents about this and they never listen so I don't know what to do. Also this means that I don't get a holiday this year. I don't mean for this to sound spoiled, but I am generally a good kid at home and the holidays that we have had in the past have all gone well, but now they have just suddenly decided for me not to come. I have tried speaking with my mum but she just says that I will be fine with my babysitter for a week and that I'm being silly and spoiled. But I don't know what else to do because she has all ready asked this baby sitter and she has said yes.

Looking back, my abusive single mom would terrorize me with abuse then take me to many therapists who would say that I was basically fine but experiencing stress. She took me to so many therapists until one diagnosed me with ADHD. I did not have this. I lied to protect my mom because she said they would take me away from her if I "told people made up stories" about the abuse. I am now realizing that she may have done this to gain money in tax help. I just want to understand her reasoning for bizarre behavior. I do also think she had Munchausen by Proxy Syndrome. Heartbreaking to think, but please any insight would help!

I have a 100+ cousins in Alabama and every 2 years they have a reunion. I'm in California. And haven't been to a reunion! I am 14 My cousin Reed told me the reunion is fun, we have 2 golf tournaments and rent out a whole restaurant. That's how big my family is. How do I convince my parents to take us to the reunion?

My grandparents live near my sisters and I, and have invited us to visit anytime we'd like. The last few times we've visited, I've noticed that my grandmother smells unwashed. Her clothes are clean, but her bodily smell is atrocious and her hair appeared oily. I know that she has arthritis, and she is heavier than what's healthy, so I imagine that bathing may be difficult for her. On my previous visits, I never worried much since her social outings are reduced to church and shopping, and she's mentioned switching to a later service because of how long it takes her to get ready, but my last visit was on a Sunday, and although she mentioned having been at church, I was appalled that she'd obviously not cleaned up for it. I'm not sure how to address this. My grandma is very modest and very sensitive to implications that she's not in control of any given situation. I want her to remain healthy and happy as long as possible, but I'm concerned that she may need assistance with bathing. I checked her bathroom, she has one of those tubs with a door and seat, as well as a stand-up shower with a seat and sprayer that you can hold onto. I can't think of anything else she'd need in the bath, so how do I start this conversation? I'm sure that with bathing, she wants privacy, so I don't know what to do. FTR, my grandfather has not so far appeared unwashed or odorous.

Details in below post!

I know some boys are just born more girly, but will letting him play with only girls exacerbate the problem?

My boyfriend and I have been living in our own place for 8 years now. And even though we don't make a lot of money, we have made it so far. Well, we just recently got a house. He inhereted it from his grandfather on his dad's side. And suddenly his mother tries to orchestrate every little aspect of it. -She is convinced we'll have ants. We haven't seen a single ant since we got the place. I have never had ant issues in any home I have had. But no matter how many times we told her "we'll be alright. If we have an issue we'll take care of it" she goes out and buys ant killer for us. Okay?? -She constantly was telling me where to store and organize stuff. Like food, paperwork, etc. Even though I have always kept an extremely organized clutter-free home. -She even kept telling us we ought to keep some of the old furniture we didn't want so the "rooms won't be so bare." They won't be bare! We have our own nice furniture and I am good at staging a home. And I like big rooms with minimal stuff anyway. I am basically just very confused about all this. I try to keep my composure. I know, in her mind, she means well. But to me it is patronizing. As if I haven't been caring for a home for almost a decade now? We're adults. Both of us, and I don't feel like she's treating us like adults. More like children who don't know what they are doing and need mommy's help. Why is she suddenly like this now? And I know she would HATE it if I did this to her. I imagine if I walked into her house and told her that she needs more artwork on her walls they look to bare, or she should use a different vacuum than the one she has (for example) she'd throw a fit. Haha. I know it's not an issue of her wanting a house. They have a brand new house that was built to their standards. She loves her house.

I have asthma and smells really bother me and make my asthma worse. so over the last year or so I been telling my mom to please not use scented stuff around me because I can't handle the smells. well it does not work at all she does not listen to me at all. one day she used a scented carpet cleaner on the carpet in the living room and as soon as she put it down I had an asthma attack from the smell and then I ended up having an attack later that night as well from the smell of it as well. then everytime they vacuum the carpet the smell of it comes back and makes me have another attack. mom uses scented trash bags and I used one once and it caused me to have an attack and I told mom she needed to get unscented trash bags and she said why in the heck do we need those? and my parents believe in using chemicals and I asked them to not use that kind of stuff and it falls on deaf ears. my parents insist on using bleach in the toliets and I told them time and time again to not use that stuff in my toilet because the smell gets to me, and yet they keep on using it anyway even after I said not to. and today I go to leave my room and I smell bleach in the toilet again and I start to cry as I am mad that they used it again after I told them over and over again not to use that stuff in my bathroom/ I told my mom that I had a recipe for a natural household made bathroom cleaner that is made with stuff here at home and if she bought the spray bottle and stuff that we do not have, then I will make it for her to use in my bathroom and she will not do it. I am so tired of her not listening to me when it comes to stuff like this it makes me really mad. and also in winter I have to keep the heat in my room to 60 and no higher and I tell my mom always in winter that I am freezing and so cold and that winter makes my asthma worse and that I need it to be warmer and she says oh well do bad dress warmer and she will not do anything to help me out at all. in winter I wear pants,shirt,jacket and 5-6 blankets at home and I am still cold and then I get many asthma flares then I get sick with bronchitis and all because she refuses to see the coldness makes me sick. how can I get her to listen to me when I talk to her about stuff like this? I am about ready to tell my doctor all about I am ready to ask him what I can do in winter to stay well because of how it is here and I am ready to say hey I keep having asthma problems cause, my mom does not care that certain things bother me like they do, so I want to tell my doctor that and see what he says to do about it. but really how can I get my mom to listen to me when I tell her not to use stuff that I can't handle

im 13 and my mom got mad at me because she thought i was playing with my dog's part but i was playing with his bellybutton. then she started to make a big deal infront of everyone! and saying i needed to go to a therapist because i was playing with his thing and that i was a bad girl. then i got mad told them they were annoying and ran upstairs into my room and slammed the door really hard. then i started screaming and crying and cursing! and i think they heard me. i feel bad now. but i dont want to talk to them right now about it. because im still mad and kind of embarrased. plus i need to get my shampoo thats down stairs. what do i do and will they forgive me?

So, my sister, 11-years old and turning 12 this January. I am very suspicious of the way she acts. Multiple times, I hear her screaming and yelling at her computer because of people on social media from her room. She also chats and has internet friends that are possibly older than her, this makes my worry. One day, I even looked on her Skype when she was away and found her sexually role-play with another one of her internet friends! Surprisingly, their texts seem to be very maturely taken care of by both of them. She sounded much older and mature than she actually is. I need some answers and help, is there something wrong with my sister, or is it just a phase that I should just brush off? Typo: Please forget about the social media part, thank you.

Ok I don't want to make her sound like a bad grandma because she's awesome I just feel like she doesn't trust me. Like one time we rented a cabin with my grandparents and my cousins and we had just went to the pool. When we got out of the pool one of my cousins who is a boy asked if he could walk back to the cabin by himself since it was only about 100 ft away. She said he could and when I was dry I asked too. She said no and I felt like I was going to cry because she said no because she didn't trust me as much and I was too fast or something. I walked back with her and one of my other cousins who is a girl but is 4 yrs younger. Another time is when we were swimming at her house, not at the cabin and she had to get out to go pee and she said we had to get out. Then she said that when she was gone my boy cousin the one from the cabin thing was in charge and I felt like I could just cry again. Oh and I am older than him I am a little less than a year older than him so I should be in charge not him. It just makes me really sad and mad. Is this normal or does she just really not trust me?

I think my brother has some issues and no one in my house will do anything about it. He acts like a five year old all the time, and never helps around the house. When I was ten (I m 13 now) I would always be doing chores. He has never learned from discipline because my dad always ends it early since he won t stop complaining. If he is grounded, however, he will not stop bothering my 5 year old sister. He throws all of her toys around and when he gets bored he leaves and doesn t even care about the mess. He never wants to hang out with everyone because he is always gaming with older people. At school, he is the total opposite of himself at home. He will be shy and calm at school, while at home he goes psycho and screams like a girl. He is so irresponsible that he leaves his floss in the sink, squirts the toothpaste everywhere, wipes his excess toothpaste on my family s towels, and the worst part: he leaves the toilet seat up and NEVER FLUSHES. When my friends come over they get so grossed out. He walks around fully naked and won t wear anything dressy at all. He threatens my little sister to play with him at all times and cries or beats her up when she doesn t. He has called my mom and me an a**hole, b***h, piece of sh*t, etc. (KEEP IN MIND HES ONLY 10) Don t tell me to stand up for myself. When I do, my parents tell me to shut up and tell me that if he beats me up then it doesn t matter because I said something. I have no idea what to do other than avoid him.

My ex-husband has a right to see our 12 year old son and 5 year old daughter the first weekend of every month. He came back yesterday and showed me today all these bruises on his testicles. the right is very swollen and he says he was hysterical when his father did that and that he still wanted to cry now. i havent seen him cry in almost 6 years. i dont know what to do for him or the proof i need or where i should go to report it.

yesterday my family was invited to restaurant but i didn't go i had other things to do and my dad told me that he was playing with other kid of his age from another table at the restaurant and that kid pulled my brother's hair and then my brother hit him with head in the face and that kid's nose started to bleed... this might be my fault because i was far from being good brother to him and often annoyed him for fun when he was 1,5+ years old and even slapped him when he was really annoying i didn't really think that he was a kid and that's what kids do... now he is aggressive towards things he doesn't like. i don't want him to grow up a violent person, those kind of people usually are dumb af... how can i change him? i'm trying my best not to shout at him,slap him or do anything negative to him unless he is being really really really rude... i'm 16 don't waste your time on "you are shitty brother" comments

it gets annoying at times but anyway when im at home sleeping she will text me and say the nikki is sleeping ( that's what we named her ) or nikki is crying . I tell her go take care of it . when im at school that's all she talks about to me is what nikki did or was doing . I don't know why she has to tell me everything .her reason is to include me in her and the baby's life . I am though I go visit them when I can wen im not doing homework . next year I will be able to get a drivers license . but my point is tis gets very annoying . like is she crazy or not right in the head from the giving birth or what ?

So, I am 14 and my brother is 15, almost 16. We go to the same school and he is always bugging me, even in school he mocks me. I am getting tired and I came up with a plan: Every night, when he falls a sleep, I'll pee into a bottle and pour the pee into his bed (we share the same room and he has a quite strong sleep, so I'm hoping he won't wake up). I will do this EVERY NIGHT, for two weeks or something. Then, I will start asking him (or my mom in front of him) whats up with all the sheet washing. Of course I will not ask it in the first days and won't ask directly if he is peeing because that would make me look guilty. After a while, eventually, a will start calling him Tyler the Bedwetter and I will spread it all over school. I bet we will learn his lesson. What do you think?

i have hated my school for 5 years now. I have skipped classes, screamed at my teacher and many other bad things. I feel really bad because of it but i just lose control of myself. i have cried almost every evening because of my school and im pretty sure that my mom feels bad about it so i have been pretending to be really happy this year to make my mom happy but i'm giving up. I got to tired of all the **** in my school and attacked a kid that was annoying me. I usually like the kids here.. they are not a big problem and i don't know why i did this BUT i know that i cant pretend to be happy any more. My mom was going to send me to my grandparents so i could go to another school this year but my school principal is a ***** so she made sure that i could not go away from this hell i'm in. i dont want to tell you why i don´t like my school but please help me out of here

I don't come from a wealthy family. People at school are calling me rich because by judging how me and my twin dresses. It really bugs me that people are calling us rich. My mom is a pharmacist, and my dad is an engineer. When my mom,sister and I when we go shopping we go for the clearance and try to buy cheap stuff. Me and my sister do a lot of house work and we always try our best in school. My parnets do pay for my things it's because I can't get a job I'm only 13.

I have a 16 year old female cousin Lisa. I am a 20 year old guy. I like her a lot. She has developed into a VERY beautiful woman. She has been dating only a few months. Sometimes she calls me and wants to go on "sort of a date". She says she is tired of going on dates with guys that only want to get into her pants. She wants to go places and have fun and not have to deal with all the guys that want sex. I made it clear to her that we were cousins and nothing romantic was going to happen on our "sort of dates". We could go to places together and just have fun as friends. She said that was EXACTLY what she wanted. So we did go on some "sort of dates" and we both indeed just had fun and I certainly did not try to get into her pants. I am having second thoughts about doing this. I don't know if it is a good or bad thing I am doing. Being a guy, I know what guys that ask her for dates want. By going on these "sort of dates", am I giving her a distorted view of what her future dates will be like? Gals, and other, please give some advice on this. THANKS

My mom is sorta divorced with my dad. Mom lives in Australia by herself but dad lives in Europe and all my family live in Europe but the thing is I hate Australia(I in a way) but I don't want to leave my mom behind also I don't know how much I will visit her each year because we have a close relationship like best friends but my brother is like my best friend also so I am crying here not knowing what to do if I leave my mom here I won't be as happy but if I stay in Australia I won't be happy and my dad and his side of the family will be disappointed including my grandad and brother Please help I'm just 13 and I already been through some very tonight times Julijs

My children hate me, my husband considers me an irritant. When we go places, they all are embarrassed by me because they say that my laugh is too loud. They prefer I stay quiet and stay to myself without interacting with other people when we attend our Christian Meetings and go on picnics. My son has no respect for me; He publicly embarrasses me and yells at me over petty things. I often times feel humiliated and robbed of my happiness only when I'm around my family. Others accept me as I am but not my immediate family. I'm getting more sadder than normal and I can no longer bear the pain and abuse of my children. I don't know what to do. I just want to disappear. Please help me. I think it's best that I be alone, but I don't know where to start. I like who I am; They just cannot accept me. I have constantly made some adjustments and changes to appease them, but it never seems to be enough. Some things I can change,but some things I have to be "me"; But they refuse to allow me to be myself and it's impossible to deal with.

I am 19 and having a hard time deciding if I would be better off without mine or not I was abused right in front of my mom and she did nothing talks down about me and always blames me for the things shes done. She isn't always like this she buys me what I need and stuff but I cant stop trying to figure out what I should do about this. Please can you tell me what you would do if you were me? I need help.

So, I was born with many sisters and a brother. ALL of my older siblings is awesomely has a quite high of IQ. So I has really Really REALLY big expactation from the people who know me. I don't want to stand on their statues. I just want to stand on my own two feet. People know me because as a younger siblings of my sisters and brother. I don't want to live their expectation but I also don't want to throw out their expectation. I really like game. I superly game mania. But now I stop it. But I just can't stop typing. Typing from my laptop and my tablet. It's just like what you called as "freedom". Because of this, I really want to be as great as my older siblings. I still remember, there's a teacher who said this to me, "your sister (one of my sister's name) is also talkative just like you. But how come you don't as smart as her" . I'm just smiling at the teacher with my teeth shown. I really hurt in my heart but I can't do anything. I respect her as I also know her as the best teacher, but looking how I get treated. I feel like I was alone... But after a few days, some BIG exams in our country is finally shown. The teacher is really shocked as my result is not like what they think it was (Thanks to God, I got all A's).. As right now, I go to school that my parent want me to be, as I just followed what my parent want.. This school has even more high expectation to me, cause three of my sister did really good. I feel really down for it... because I got there thru some there.

I had to go on a buisness trip to LA. We said since we never been out there we want to make a family trip from it Me my mom and my brother. My little cousin said she wanted to come, my mom loves all her neices and nepthews so of course she said ok. So my brother brought some friends and I was like **** it I want time away from everything to get my head together. So we n LA and me and my mother takes my little cousin to Universal and san monca and stuff, we didnt go to downtown or hollywood because we didnt no how those neighborhoods were and we didnt want to expose her to that. So we basicly were her ******* baby sitters (thats cool tho) so we get on the plane and shes sitting on the sit across from my brother shes not with us (shes 14 i think or 13) and all my aunt and uncle could talk about is why she couldnt sit with someone even though she was across from us. Note all they paid for was her ticket the girl had to eat drink and have fun my mom never asked them 4 a dime, unlike win I was kid and they made me feel like **** if my mom didnt pay 4 somethng we did when i was with them. We never made the girl feel like she was a burden and unwanted and gave her anything she asked 5 (something they never did for me or my brother(. My mother is saying hold my peace and move on but its really pissing me off. What do I do, Do u think that the way these people act will ever come to light? Should I say something or keep holdin my peace? They dont talk to dem should i do the same?

I'm just wondering if it's right/wrong that i'm angry. First of all I'm 16, female, his only child and have been an overall good kid. My dad will whine and complain about how hard it is to keep up with the house everyday and do everything with no help when in fact I do my own laundry and wash my dishes (never his) and I hate cooking but I normally cook for myself if we don't eat out (which we do a lot). He never acknowledges when I do anything productive which would be fine if he didn't call me irresponsible and ungrateful every time I don't want to cook. I thought that lots of families have the parents cook the meals and maybe get help from older children in the kitchen every once in awhile so I feel like i's not fair for him to give me shxt for not cooking every single meal. He'll make passive aggressive comments about how I never clean/cook.we don't have that kinda help bc he's a single parent and I get that he needs extra help bc of that but i feel like he'll try to use that excuse so that he can get out of some of his responsibilities. He always complains about mowing the lawn and has said that he said that I should do that too and that's just not something i am comfortable doing (i wld if ppl didnt look at me weird). hes always complaining about everything and i feel like no matter what he will not be satisfied. He says that when he was my age he was already cooking for himself and he makes it sound like he had no problem doing so which is total bs because I know that he (mostly him) and his siblings were bitter toward their mom (my grma) for not cooking/cleaning for him when they were teens because my aunt told me so awhile back. For years (since I was 13) my dad has been nagging about how i "never" cook. @Merlin A long time ago I actually confronted him about how I feel like he sees me as a substitute wife instead of a child a long time ago and he denied it just like he denies everything else he's not okay with people thinking of him. He's a master at that. @star_of_darkness damn who fxcked ur childhood up? was it ur dad?

Well, maybe not both of them. Maybe my father isn't really my father, or something like that, and he doesn't know. Or maybe I was mistakenly switched at birth or something. I don't want to take a DNA test, I think it would be very disrespectful towards them. I am 19. Anyway... -I am naturally blonde, and my pigment is grayish. My mother's hair is the darkest brown, my father's is black. Both their parents AND grandparents are black-haired, just like their relatives. -My eyes are bright green. Their eyes are dark brown. -My skin is very very pale, with blue veins on my arms. My mother has dark olive skin with greenish veins, and my father has a dark skin too, though not olive, just dark dark. -I have freckles. None of them have freckles. -I look like none of them or their parents or relatives - not similar noses, eyes, mouth.... not even personality. It's nothing. -My mother's blood type is AB- and my father's is B+. My blood type is A-. Does it sound normal or not? Anyway, I have a younger sister. Darker skin, dark brown hair, and nobody believes we're actually sisters.

There's a girl I've been after for about 2 years, and it just so happened that she invited me and my family to an art gallery she was hosting. I ended up going with my mother as she was invited as well, and it went fantastic- at first. The both of us hung out and conversed, got drinks, shared ideas, flirted, and I learned she was single. Towards the end of the night, my mother (who had started drinking wine,) came over and joined us in conversation. As it went, I started telling a story. Halfway through the story, my mother says in a very gloomy voice: "you're lying." And starts acting very depressed. The mood got really weird. I tried to explain that I wasn't lying, and that my mother should know that I'm not lying, but she started shaking her head in disapproval. We leave, and in the car my mother says "Michael, I owe you an apology. You weren't lying, I shouldn't have said that. I forgot about that story, and now I remember it." What. The. Heck. I'm not a liar, have never been known for lying, but my drunk mother literally just sabotaged me- in the worst way I can imagine. It wasn't a lie nor an embellishment, I asked her afterwords how she could have said something so harsh (it was out of her character,) and she told me that she was daydreaming about the times my father lied to her before their divorce. I can't explain that to this girl! I don't even know how to approach this. What do I do?

My children, im sorry iv not told u this in a long tyme, i av 10 million dollars in my account in in in in....And he stopped breathing!!!. Wot ar u gonna do?

OK, I love to rub one out a couple of times a day. About six months ago, I started doing something really weird. I began spewing my load in a small Tupperware container, and collecting it. When I open the lid, the smell in the room is rancid. But it turns me on. I have been keeping this container under my bathroom sink in a cabinet. Last week my mom went into my bathroom and put away some things she bought. She found the container, and just put it on the bathroom counter. I was shocked when I saw it sitting there, and knew it had to be her who left it there. She has said nothing about this, but I feel so embarrassed, I can barely look at her now. There would have been no mistaking what was in the clear container. I don't know now how to even bring it up.

So I'm a 17 year old girl, my parents well actually my family I feel don't too much care for me. I'm a middle kid also so that makes it 10x worst. Well my grandma aunts uncles cousins everyone I can tell favors my older sister over me. My sister is away at college and They always look for her, kiss up to her, find a way to bring her up, and admire her. Meanwhile, they don't even notice me. I'm looked over because they prefer my older sister and younger sisters. It's not fair :(!!! My mom and I got into this huge argument because I clean the whole house every night but no one notices the good I do. My mom even said "I tell everyone I can't stand you and see now you see why you are my least favorite and I do not like you. As soon as you turn 18 I want you out of my house." I told her "what if I have no where to go? No money no other family and I just end up homeless begging for change on the streets because you kicked me out because you don't like me so?" She said "I don't care where you end just want you gone!" Now this has lit fire under my *** to become something successful and awesome when I get older! I really wanna direct, write, act, film because it's been my passion since I was little! Is there any program I can join? I also like real estate and maybe wanna be a real estate agent. But the real question is, what can I do to be better?
