Hello guys! My question might be stupid, but i'll go for it. Why the **** when always ask my dad for a guitar i get negative answers like: "you don't need it" , "there is time for that" ?????? How do i **** THAT UP???? I'm tired playing on my GARBAGE copy of fender stratocaster, while seeing my dad with awesome expensive bass guitar that is just sitting home? I'm growing into a very very good guitarist, and i can't think of "my dad doesn't buy me guitar cuz i suck". So should i ask him again, start a good conversation or? Something? Help me if you know a solution. Yahoo is the best place to tell your feelings to the good people! With love, Evelienn.

I m 15 years old and my mom recently was killed in a tragic motorcycle accident now have to live with my dad I used to stay with him every other week, now it s full time. Here s some info to understand the back story. Me and my dad don t really get along. I m not perfect or all innocent, I ve made mistakes in the past where I smoked marijuana and got caught by my dad. Long story short he always thinks I m going to smoke pot and especially with what happened to my mom (which is understandable) The problem I face with him is I think he s verbally abusive and has gotten physical in the past and also recently. If we get into an argument even about some thing simple his temper sets off and one thing will lead to another and he ll bring up all my past mistakes and call me an a*shole or a peice of sh*t he says a lot of hurtful things to me and if I run my mouth or say something back it can set him off to where he ll hurt me physically. In the past he s punched my stomach, slapped my face, put me in a headlock and squeezed till I couldn t breath and pushed me down into the wall. There s more things but I don t want it to seem like he s a bad dad or person he s done so much for me in the past but now it s bad between us and I hate living there I have a half brother and a step sister there and we have gotten in physical fights in front of them and i think it s wrong. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP I m thinking of telling a school counselor about it hit need

My name is Queenstar Betty Amoah, I'm a 23 year old Ghanaian female, and I am a good girl because I don't smoke, I don't drink alcohol, and I don't do drugs. I don't have any STDs. I graduated High School and obtained a Diploma. I have never been in a relationship or marriage before in my entire life. I have never been arrested before. I don't have a criminal record. I don't have any tattoos on my body. I don't wear nose rings or tongue rings. I don't wear fake nails or nail polish. I don't wear contact lenses. I don't go to parties or clubs. I don't bump and grind on guys. I don't twerk and I don't swing on poles. I don't wear thongs. I don't strip or give guys lap dances. I don't call guys on the phone to have phone sex. I'm not a gold digger. I don't makeout with guys in public. I don't rough play with guys. I don't wear high heel shoes and revealing clothes with an intention of getting guys to check me out. I like to dress decent like a lady because I respect myself. I don't follow the crowd or try to fit in. I like to follow my own lead and stand out of my peers. I don't hang around bad friends. I am not pressured by my peers because I know right from wrong and I won't allow them. I remained true to myself. I am unpopular and I like myself just the way I am. I will never change myself for anyone. What is so cool about being popular anyways? I'm not materialistic and I wear what my parents can afford. I am content with what I have.

Growing up, me and my dad had a pretty bad relationship with each other. He would scream at me at the top of his lungs when I would do something as little as spill something on the floor and was verbally abusive, which I won t go into details about. Thankfully he has changed a bit, our relationship has improved tremendously. But still to this day, I get major anxiety when he yells. Usually it s at our dogs or when he is frustrated. It reminds me of how he screamed at me like that, and it makes me want to run and hide and sometimes it gets so bad that I want to physically hurt myself. This all sounds crazy, but I just want to know some ways of how I can cope with it or tune it out. Any tips?

They akready got 5 month old twins!! And my mom is whining that shes tired all the time. But today I went into my parents bathroom to find some shampoo. And there was pregnancy test on the side of the bath. It was negative but this means they trying to have another crotch goblin So I took it and confronted them. And they said my mom thought she was pregnant, but they not trying to have another baby. I said Jesus buy some fcking condoms. What is wrong with them?? They are like 35, and they don't know these things. I don't want another baby. Theres already a 5 yr old and 5 month old twins in my house. All u hear all day is crying. They are miserable babies. Even my dad said they never smile. Just frown all the time. These idiots. I even call my parents idiots and my dad said mind my own business. It IS my business. I think they doing it on porpoise. They want a better baby. They got a succession of bad ones and they trying to get a good one. My mom is like a fcking cat. Next pregnancy she'll probly have 5 babies at once. They need to be stopped. This actaully depressed me all through school today and caused me to call a janitor a pr!ck when he looked at me on my way inside. No doubt school will be calling my parents sometime this week. Can I get them arrested they are WRONG. And they're too old to have more kids. I am 15, soon 16. They should of stopped years ago. I have a feeling theyre restarting their famiky. Cuz they know I'm gone in 3 years. And I was a early mistake. So soon as I'm gone they're gonna have a houseful of kids. A new famiky basically. Without me spoiling it

so im 13 going to be 14 in a few weeks and im very interested in boys. I asked my mom for tips on dating and she was resistant so i went on the internet and they said i can practice kissing by using a pillow or even a close girlfriend. But im not into girls (EW) so i was doing it with my pillow and my brother caught me and he said he would teach me how to kiss if im comfortable. he said its common for siblings to practice. idk how i feel about this as he's my brother but i want to be prepared when i start dating boys. what do i do? girls! he told me to keep it a secret and i plan to as this can ruin both of our lives

So basically every night my parents take away all of my electronics.When I was in eighth grade my parents let me use electronics, but since I started high school they thought because I'm in a new school and it's harder than 8th grade that they should take it away. It frustrates me so much. I get good grades and I know when I need to fall asleep. I never stayed up on a school night past 1:30 even with my phone.I'm fourteen years old and the youngest in the family. My brother and sister had their phones and computer with them when they were my age and my parents never took it away. they keep taking mine away. I need my laptop really badly right now because I'm in the middle of midterms and my mom decided that since its exams, that she should take it away because "I'll do better if I fall asleep at 10" WHICH IS NOT TRUE. omg and she ALWAYS uses an excuse, even if she knows I'm right: well I'm the mom and you're the daughter and that's final. I'm not a bad student I've never done anything bad. Literally NO OTHER PARENTS take away their kids phones and computers and it's rediculous because I'm in high schoo!! She always grounds me for the stupidest reasons. For example, my neighbors drive me to school every day and if I'm late ONE MINUET they will ground me from all electronics. In my school, we have to use laptops and all of my work is on it and I NEED my laptop to work and study. And please don't say just do it during the day because I have a busy schedule and don't have time.

We dated for 3 years in college, then started long distance when I went to veterinary school. One time while I was visiting him, I went through his text messages and found out he "took another girl home". When I confronted him and was about to break up with him, he claimed it was just a kiss. He begged for me back, saying I was his only love, the most serious relationship he's ever had, etc, and I took him back. Then later I got randomly jealous of some girl I saw he added on facebook. That triggered him to say he "can't do long distance for 4 years and put his life on hold anymore, it's too hard being away from me." He was crying the whole time. I begged for him to take me back, and he did. Then a couple weeks later, the girl I was suspicious of messaged me that she had been on several dates with him and they had had an hour long hook up/grinding session. As soon as she discovered he had a girlfriend, she ended it. I contacted him angrily and called him an *** hole. He said he was so sorry, he knew i could never forgive him, and I deserve someone better. He would always love me and care about me, but he can't do long distance anymore. Throughout the 3 years we dated he wanted to be with me constantly, texted/called me 24/7, told me I was his one and only,etc. Now, he barely responds when I text him. I stopped trying, and he didn't speak to me for weeks. Then he texted me "I miss you so much." I said I did too and wanted to be his girlfriend again, but he didn't respond. Why? P.S. Now we havent talked for two weeks

I have been a single mother of 2 for 4 years now, my daughter (the oldest) had a relationship with her father for 2 years and my son only for a year.. the father has not seen them for 3 years now, he is abusing drugs so until he gets clean I do not allow him to see the kids (and yes i feel guilty about it, but it is for the best) lately my daughter has been acting out, she never did before. she wasn't listening in school (which got her on red) for a week, now she's telling me she wants to die (i don't know where that came from and she has only said that 2x) and yesterday she started telling me that I am not her mommy and that I don't do anything for her... mind you this made me tear up, but I started talking to her and asking her why, why is she saying it, why does she think that. she didn't give me a clear answer, but I did calm her down and made her realize that I am her mother and will do anything and everything for her. i think she is acting out because she misses her father. she hasn't said it. she does ask about him, and all i tell her is that "i don't know where daddy is" or "daddy is sick but don't worry, he is getting better where ever he is" is there anything else i can do? have your kids acted out and you knew it was because they miss the other parent? if you grew up in a single parent household, any suggestions on what i can say or do that will ease the pain or curiosity for my daughter? thank you for reading and for your comments :)

She's constantly yelling at me. For stupid ****. Like today, i told her i cant visit a sick relative in the hospital because i need to finish and catch up on my school work or im gonna fail, she yelled at me and called me selfish. Then later on, when my grandmother asked her if i feel better, mum asked me how does she know, all i said was on facebook i said that im not feeling too good and she yelled at me cause of that. A few months back i fell into severe depression and she would emotionally blackmail me and put me down when i wanted my dad. She always puts me down by saying "you used to be so good, now look at you" when i have a mood swing, normally because of her. Like she druves me crazy and makes me cry all the time.

My mom said she caught my dad videocalling another girl. They were talking about disgusting stuffs. What do we do? This is awkward..

iI'm not trying to keep my daughter from her father but he is so mentally abusive calls me names makes me feel worthless. all he dose is fight with me. He says things like I should kill myself and die its never about our daughter. Then his mother says I might harm my daughter. im a sweet girl he was abusive and his mother blames me. right now I have his number blocked with his mothers I cant take the abuse.

My mom told me last night that she's about 4-5 months pregnant with a baby girl who will be my half sister. I'm 21, so there will be a major age difference between us. I'm really excited and really want to help her through this as she's 43 and afraid of having another child at her age alone (the father wanted her to abort so she dumped him). She told me that she was really afraid I would be upset and angry, but never explained why. I really don't understand why she would think I'd be angry.

Hi, I'm an 18 year old girl, soon starting college. I was recently hanging out with my 23 year old brother. He goes to another college for masters degree and happend to come over for a visit. We were at a fast food restaurant and these horrible mannered high school guy and 2 girl come in and cut in line. We and people at the back asked them in a normal tone to get back, but they start talking trash and my brother got pissed when the guy disrespected a woman right in front of her child. He stepped forward and told the guy that he needs to be more respectful and yet he rants him to walk the f away. But my brother was stiff as wasn't going to let him or his friends rude behavior give in. He asked me to go call the manager. As I walked forward, the guy arguing with my brother, had a slushi from another fast food shop, threw it on my brothers face (WRONG move) and in a fit of rage my brother (my brother is tall and pretty muscular, so stupid move on the guy's part, as he was of an average build) gave him a hard push, he falls down on his a$$ flat and he slides away towards the counter (it was one of the most funniest things I've seen) his two female friends came to 'hit' my brother, but I chimmed in and slapped one of them along with a kick and they were doing all the kiddish hair pulling bull$hit. Customers around us came in and pulled all of us away. Upset, I pulled my brother and we left and we could hear customers yelling at the three hooligans. Did we go too far ?

Okay, so my sister has Down Syndrome and is 4, my other sister just started kindergarden and has dance everyday after school, my dad works a night and day schedule every other week, and my parents are divorced. My sister that is 4 needs a lot of therapy and extra time than a regular child so my mom doesn't like picking me up from school. Especially when I stay after. And when she has to take my sister to dance frustrates her even more so I was wondering if anyone could help me and tell me if I have a good chance on obtaining a hardship licences.

I got her a husky puppy recently as a belated X-Mas gift, she's 5, I'm a single dad. Every night she tries to carry " Wolfy" to her bed, insisting he will sleep in her bed. I've tried letting her put his puppy bed in her room, but, it's not good enough, she wants him to be under the covers, head on a pillow, next to her. Do I give in?

I m absolutely in love with a wonderful man. He has a daughter with his ex which is something I ve accepted and am working through with him. The only trouble I have now is my parents - especially my mom - are absolutely upset about it. My mom has been calling me constantly and crying and trying to convince me to break up. She has threatened that if I decide to stay with him my parents will not be supportive in any way in my future in the same way they were with my brother. I understand her concern and I ve spent a lot of time thinking about this but the relationship is currently worth it. How can I help my parents get over this issue and see that I am truly happy? Just so you are all aware and understand: I am 25 and have been living on my own since I was 18. My boyfriend is 26. He's currently working as a sous chef and going back to school to be a biology teacher. His daughter was a complete surprise to both of us as he was told about her when his ex was 7 months pregnant. His daughter is 6 months old now and she lives in a different state. He is in his daughter's life as best he can, loves her very much, and is supportive and responsible.

When I was 4 years old my parents divorced, I stayed with my mom because my dad worked a lot. Now I am 16 years old and over the years I noticed that I had a way better connection to my father, as we are very like each other, It's not that my mom would be bad but she doesn't really understand the way I think and why I want/do things as much as my father, if at all. So there has been a lot of fighting with my mom lately. I guess it would be better for everyone if I'd tell her that it would be better for me to live with my father ( Especially because she has a new 2,5 month old baby) Should I tell her?

My family isnt exactly super religious but I did grow up Catholic. This all happened over my winter break when my mom asked if I was planning on joining a church group my cousin is in on campus. I tried making excuses that I was too busy with other things. She kept guilt tripping me into trying to go so I finally told her I wasn't religious. By that I mean that I may believe in a God of some sorts but I don't believe in religion itself or the bible translations. My mother and grandparents immediately called me an atheist (not that there anything wrong with atheists) and attempted to have an intervention. The only person who couldn't care less was my father and I don't even know if he believes in God so that's why he took it well. But now my family is trying to get me to go to church or sending people from their church to talk to me. I know they want what they feel is best but its just getting stressful. I don't even live at home anymore but it just puts a strain on my relationship with them. How can I talk to them about this?

i hate my parents. ive hated them for a long time. i was beaten up everyday as a kid.i actually used to think i would be killed and lived in a constant fear. my mother scolded me for absolutely everything, called me useless and that i would never do anything in life. i can take those words now but at 9 years old hearing that was like being stabbed with a knife.i developed a low self esteem i was scared of doing anything in fear of being scolded and hit,i used to get blamed for everythng. i used to be a pretty good kid did everything my parents told me to even if they did nothing but beat me up for any tiny mistake i made while doing it and as i got older i had enough i just didnt care anymore if i were to get scolded for things i didnt even do what difference does it make if i do it anyway of course i was still miserable i used contemplate suicide but i was too scared to do it though. also it feels like my parents would win if i kill my self. they always tell me they wish i were dead so if i were dead its their win right? i also dont like it when they constantly tell me how much better my brother is than me.im 18 now and i dont want to live with them but where i live its not easy for a teenager to lust leave at 18. no one hires a 18 year old and i still need to go for higher education.

She said I'm not aloud to be their so I am going to get revenge! First, I am going to pour cold water all ovar the drive way so its real slick an I am going to put floor wax in the foryer an it will be slick an I'll stick my peckar in the ice tea an fart on the sammiches she made for the party an then when every one is hear I am going to take off all my clothes an run down the stairs threw the dining room an living room (where the party is at) an back up the stairs an I'll be farting all the way an flopping my peckar! Maybe I'll crap! I'll have my revenge!

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 never happen. However her parents thought it was best for her not to see them fighting all the time and agreed she 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 3 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? Is there a better solution than adopting her? Could she just live with me if her parents are OK with it?

My mum bought me a christmas present but because she ordered it online it only arrived today, i opened it and she wasn't home yet, i saw on the front that it cost £42 and also we had to pay another £13 for postage, and its a necklace, its really nice and i love it but i wish she didn't buy it at all because the boiler in our house is broken and id rather she put the money towards that, i feel bad that she went through the effort and spent that money on me and that i wish she didnt get it for me (even though i do like it), my dad just sort of grunted at me when i said this, am i being ungrateful? I'm not going to say this to my mum obviously

My dad constantly has angry outbursts whenever things don't go his way. Very rarely has he used physical force. He stopped spanking around 13. My parents are divorced and my dad is very suspicious whenever I try to have a normal phone conversation with my mom without him trying to listen in. He tries to get into my phone to specifically read our texts but I don't let him. So recently today my dad and I got into an arguement because I am deathly afraid of shots and I have to get one tomorrow. He was mad that I can't just stop being afraid of shots and I said I can't help it so he started having an anger burst so I turned away to go to my room and he grabbed my arm as hard as possible and slammed me into the stairs. I screamed and ran to my room and he's trying to spoil me now so I don't tell my mom. There is a purple finger mark and my arm is red. This isn't the first time he has done something like this. Once I was chatting with my mom on the phone and he said "WHAT ARE YOH TALKING ABOUT" and I said "it's none of your business I can talk to my mom about whatever I want." So he had another anger outburst and slammed me into a wall and pinned me there and he took my phone and threw it into a wall. He is in the military and is used to be doing exactly as he says no questions asked. I hate living with him but I'm too afraid to speak up and try and live with my mom. What should I do?

I am a high school girl that has chores that help out my mom. One of my chores is to wash the clothes and sheets from the beds. I noticed the sheets from my little brother's bed were sticky when I washed them. They kept getting more sticky each week. I asked him how come they were sticky and he denied they were. I finally got tired of washing his sticky sheets and demanded he show me how they were getting sticky. Gals, YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT HE DID. I asked him if that hurt. He said no. It feels pretty good. Is it normal for guys to do that? It sure messes up his sheets. Should I tell him if he does not stop doing that, he will have to wash his own sheets.

I live with my mom and she asked me to go get a copy of the lease. So I go to the office and I get it and every time the manager tell me she to come back she says she does not have it. I have been to the office for 2 days now, she will tell me to come back the same day and she STILL does not have the copy of the lease. She says it's her computer The other people who live there tell me she is mean, this was before i met her so i gave her the benefit of the doubt, and to be honest I don't have a problem with her but she acts like she does not like working there. Residents have told me that people have cussed her out My mom told me that I don't have to go the office again that she will send My little sister. Of course I try to go the office to get it because I'm trying to help my mom To be honest, I'm ready to go off on her I went to the office today and the lady said that she took a vacation day

I have an alcoholic parent who is always canceling plans by saying she's "sick" translation-she's hung over. She gets mad at me for letting me and my family down by saying "Well I'm sick, it's not my fault." She refuses to take any responsibility for her addiction. I don't want to cut off contact because my kids want to see her. Anyone have any advice or kind words?

Hi. I'm 17 and male. I was at my friend tommys house and he had to go pick up his sister so I just stayed at his house. I didn't know his mom was home and I heard noises coming from up stairs. I thought it was a TV so I went up stairs and I went into his mom's room (his parents are divorced) and his mom was naked on the bed with a dodo in her ***. I closed the door and just went home. I told tommy I had to help my dad with something. Should I tell him what happened? I don't want to go back to his house because I feel like it would be too awkward. How do I handle this because I don't want to lose my best friend.

I understand people go to great lengths just to make ends meet by offering their bodies for sex in exchange for money (potentially dangerous) to help pay for bills, food and education. But there is an even more safer way of doing this without risking getting HIV/AIDS and potentially leaving a family without a mother or father, and this involves temporarily selling your family's dirty socks to the many people with a socks fetish who will pay lots for them (you can even make this as a second income to fund their education and other needs) until you can get back to the workforce. And best of all, it hurts no-one while also making money. Too many families are left without a mother or father, just because they ended up selling their bodies for sex that ended up giving them HIV or AIDS. It's just not worth it, save yourself and your family.

we are three girls and Im the eldest One is 19, the other is 17 and Im 20 Because of my 17 year old sister lets call her sara Acepted in a luxurious university far away and since she entered 16 under 18 we had to transfer with her, that was my parents condition to continue paying for us The thing is that she got into medicine because and my parents wanted me to be a doctor but my grades werent good enough Since last year Im stuck in this dorm room with both of them Im a morning person I wakeup at 6 AM (even though my classes are at 1pm) and sleep 10 pm Sara wont turn the lights and would stay till 3am studying because of her poor time management Ill have to disturb my sleep for her its enough I changed my uni for her Im tierd of sacrificing and when i tell her we came her because of you she will be like not my problem and she doesnt appreciate us waking her up she sleeps like dead and cooking for her she doesnt nothing but live in her bed which is a pile of mess The thing is she annoys me in everything like not cleaning the room or washing dishes nothing and my parents be like its ok her studies are hard and all she does is complain about this college because she didnt want medicine she wanted art but she does well Now my sleeping pattern is destroyed it took me 3 years to stick to it and I messed up my finals till now so since she stays late i decided to study up late like her Now that i have finals i stay up till even 6 like only in finals and now she would just close the light to sleep at 4am while im studying While i used to sleep at 10 pm with lights with difficulty because of her My parents are unfair when it comes to her they got her a neon study liight but she never uses it I have one more year untill college is over and im completly annoyed im short tempered and so is she I might end up just hitting her then she goes complaining to my parents just because i didnt take medicine my parents are never on my side and see me as a failure I swear i hate my life because of her this is serious 100% I really need help she literally sits all time studying and commanding us not to make noise and sleep whenever she wants to By the way half of her studying is spent on instagram she doesnt study well and when i tell her since ur classes are in the morning try waking up early on weekends she wont listen and says my wish The other 19 yr old is on her side because she is scared if she doesnt listen to her my parents wont like her or something even when she is wrong Its like sara is the eldest then the 19 yr old then me! I feel bad

It all started when I dropped a course and went down to 12 credits. We did not get money back since there is one full time rate. My dad keeps bringing this up and I am so stressed about it. He keeps mentioning how I could get another course for "free" and all this other stuff. To make it worse, my mom keeps begging me to pick up another course and talk to advisers which is making me even more guilty because there are no other courses available for me to pick up. I feel physically sick and cannot focus on my classes because of them constantly picking on what should be the start of my adult life. My dad insists he checks my grades once a week and my mom is bugging me to get involved every single night when I'm trying my best to be involved as a commuter. I am ready to move out and I don't even want to come home anymore to see them. I am about to go to class now and all I feel like doing is crying somewhere. I am not able to talk to them because the conversation just goes in a circle and we are back at how I dropped to 12 credits. We do not have the money to send me to a school where I can stay as a resident and not a commuter. Is there anyway to solve this problem with annoying parents? I am ready to pull my hair out.

i'm trynna win a bet with my older brother he believe animals have sex but i know they do because mr.fluffy and mrs.twinkle where having sex in mommy's bed. :)

Just give some ideas because I'm bored out of my mind. There is snow out so my mom won't let me go out. And my mom doesn't want me to be on any electronic device..

I was watching the imitation game w/ Benedict Cumberbatch a few weeks ago with my mom and she said you act just like Alan Turing. Later I found out that Alan was suspected of having autism. So I took the test and got a 43... I didn't say anything, but every day for as long as I can remember anything little odd thing I do my mom asks me, "Are you retarded." or "whats wrong w/ you." I don't like going into shops, because its to loud, bright, and theres to many people. So to day I left w/ my dad and he makes me go into the pizza place and order. He got upset when I didn't look the woman in the eye and I started play with my hands. I don't what to tell either of them, because my dad will blame every on my mom and say I don't know if thats even whats wrong with me. And my mother will most likely dismiss it and go back to asking whats wrong with me, but I feel like I'm getting no where in life and I'm becoming more autistic If that is at all possible. Also I'm 17 and if I do get the diagnosis will my parents still have legal rights over me after I become a legal adult?

Her family cut all ties with her when they found out she was in a relationship with me, I won't go in to reasons but in the end they told her "its him, or us". We've been in a relationship for almost 8 years now, we are getting married in 4 months. I kept asking her to ask her family to come, she kept saying "I'm going to think about it.", but I've heard her speaking to her friend, she's already asked them, and they've all said no. She has no family on the guest list, not even aunties, cousins etc, she's not having anyone walk down the isle with her. I know it bothers her but she acts as though she does not care.. I don't know what to do? I feel very guilty, as I know this is my fault. If you were her, would you truly be ok with none of your family at your wedding? We speak about it a lot but she keeps saying she's happy and it doesn't matter, but I am worried when she looks back on her wedding day she will resent me?

He s bringing bugs here and is the reason why the kitchen is dirty and living room ( he sleeps in the living room) he s not that old he still can move and walk around fine he don t need no cane or anything like that. My mom is struggling with bills and rent and he gets all these checks cause he s use to be in the airforce but he doesn t he help his own daughter but sending money to his wife in North Carolina who doesn t like to work and treat him Like **** he eating all the food my friends don t come over no more he yells at everyone who knocks on the door... In my house we blast music while cleaning & he decides to call his wife every turn we blast music while we re cleaning and make us turn it down so low my mom brought a brand new tv and I don t get to watch tv on it at all cause he s watching old shows I have no cable in my room neither does my sister. my uncle cuss me Out cause I don t want his dad at my house so I was getting smart back cause he s not my mom or dad or grandma and we don t Have no type of bond I hardly talk to him. Does he has the right ?

I have no pj in my wardrobe last night as all in laundry.I have asked my mom now what I wear now.She told me to wear only long shirt without bottom.She also said you are my son so its not a big deal.I found its weird but I does.I wear normal shirt without anything.She can able to see my **** and all package .Do you think it weird or normal.I am 22.I am not trolling at all.

My sister is 23 years old, I'm a 15 year old boy and she is staying here for a while to save up for an apartment to live at in Portland (we live in Seattle). I love my sister and all, she may get on my nerves a little (freaking out about the littlest things and never sticking up for me), but this is what pisses me off the most; she never remembers ANYTHING.... AT ALL. I'm not going to tell you all the things she doesn't remember, but she never remembers to shut the back door. It's been 6 Days in a row now! I always came home from school last week and this week and saw the backdoor storm gate half shut and the actual door not locked. We have a dog, so we need to take him out when he pees every hour or so. But my sister needs to think; Somebody can actually break in if she is not careful. My brothers always lock the door and one of them is 10! And it's shocking he knows how to take care of the house more than my adult-aged sister! It just pisses me off. She never watches out. I feel like she needs to start remembering to shut it. Help? Don't say stuff like, "Oh people forget". No. How could people leave the back door open and be that stupid? Don't say something cliche along the lines of, "Oh, ya know, sit her down and talk to her". Won't work. I live in reality; not the dream world.

Just wondering

This has been going on for YEARS, the cats in my house have been chewing wires and cords to headphones, chargers, ect.. my parents thought it was either me or my sister cutting the stuff, so my sister said she did it so I wouldn't get in trouble. NOW whenever something gets chewed, my parents blame her. They take her money, they call her the worst kid ever, all the cuss words, they say they are going to shave her head, they yell in her face, they tell her how great I am, when she did NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!! it makes me so sad to see her like this, I am 13 she is 15, they make it so she can't use her computer, she cant draw, they took everything from her, they tell her they wish she would die, ect. they told my whole family about it and now everybody in my family HATES her, when she did nothing, she doesn't deserve this pain. Epsecially since my mom is her step mom, and she has another mom but we have the same dad, and her other mom abandoned her and my parents bring her up everytime it happens, and it makes her so upset. I feel so bad for her. Anything, advice, please help me I can't take this any longer. :( My parents also aren't trying to be mean, they GENUINELY THINK SHE IS CUTTING THIS STUFF WHEN I KNOW 10000000% SHE DIDN'T CAUSE I HAVE SEEN THEM CHEWING IT WITH MY EYES, AND I TELL THEM SHE DIDN'T AND THEN THEY THREATEN ME! -_-

I'm just gonna jump right into what I'm talking about. My sister is one year younger, she's getting married. I'm super happy and will be in her wedding. She has done things that I never did. Like she's had sex, has a full time job, had boyfriends, friends, and all this stuff. I am the opposite. My mom treats me differently like...almost like, I don't matter. Or I'm not important enough to be talked about or talked too or something. I mentioned it to my mom before on why she does that and she got mad at me and says she doesn't know what I'm talking about. Everyone is that way to me. Because I haven't done things that my younger siblings have done. I'm different yes, but I like it like that. I'm in no rush for anything. I haven't had sex and don't know when I will. I have a part time job but get paid good enough than most with a part time job. I have never had friends, or boyfriends. Real ones for that matter. Should I ignore this stuff? Like I have. Or should I do that and just block everyone from my life? I am pretty much happy with myself and where I'm at. But others aren't and they act as if I'm stupid and not worthy of being joined in like family conversations when we get together. I'm always with the kids and my younger-er siblings. Why is my family like this? I know it's normal I think but I'm just bothered I get treated so differently just because "I'm behind" on stuff. I guess you can say.

My mom has 3 kids, me (15), and my 2 brothers (18 and 9). I live with my dad and my brothers live with my mom. I left because I couldn't handle the enviornment I was in, she's the kind of mom that acts like a 22 year old obsessed with drama, getting laid, and going to the bars. My little brother is being raised believing that it's okay to cheat on your husband, to go out to the bar constantly, etc. She is a very very narcissistic, probably bipolar, woman. And I'm scared for my little brother. He shouldn't be raised in that enviornment, especially since she talks about all the stuff she does right in front of him and even tries persuading him that what's sheso doing is okay. My dad is possibly going to jail soon, for a dui he got during the breakup with my mom (she cheated on him and manipulated him and finally he had enough, got drunk, and tried to kill himself). I'm in no way saying that is okay, but he is a very respectful man none the less. Good morals, emotionally supportive, basically a good parent. Which means, I'm gonna be forced to move back in with my mom, and have to deal with major anxiety and depression all over again. I wanna do something to stop this, and I think the fact that she hasn't had her gas on in 9 months and its winter. Is she legally allowed to do that? The house is pretty much all gas, the stove, the heat, the showers, ect. I live in PA, so winter is pretty rough. Freezing temperatures. Can anyone help?

Okay this is very emanrassing but is true. I grew up being a very spoiled and rich kid, my mom having a very successful cleaning business and my dad owning a construction company, my life was very easy. We'll both of my parents busineses broke, we lost our luxurious home and our very expensive life that we can't afford anymore. I went from having everything to nothing and I am very ashamed to say that during my 19 years of life, I've never had a job in my life. Now, it's time to get a job but ofcourse I've never worked before, so should I lie and make up stuff to put in my resume or should I be honest and put zero work experience and hope for the best? I really need your guys opinions.

I am now 16 and wonder this. My mothers are wonderful so by no means am I complaining about them but wonder how will I know as I have never really known a man. My mothers have been partners for 21 years and married last year. I am their only son (they have two daughters).

I get grief from her like when I see her sister who she is at odds with. It happens once or twice a month.

My brother's a sophomore at Columbia University and he called me up the other day and talked to me about how he suddenly wants to drop out because of "personal situations" that he wouldn't even tell me about. Like, what is wrong with him? Does he know how easy it's going to be to get a job if he has a degree from Columbia? I'm only 16 and I know right from wrong better than him. So how do I get him to stay there? Should I threaten him that our parents are going to disown him if he drops out or something like that to make it effective? It's really important he stays there I believe, it's his future and he's stupid to ruin it. ☆ Sent from iOS Dr. Know! 1.0

So, one of my friends told me her mom did this to her. Her mom always hits and slaps her for reasons like this: using too much soap in the bath, getting nervous over symptoms, "disturbing" her older sister, etc. And when she hits her, she always hits her worst spots, e.g. her lower back. She sometimes pushes her off chairs and while she is struggling so get up, she kicks her down and hits her more. She also threatens to throw hot water on her, and burn her on the stove or murder her. Her mom also says horrible things to her. Even though she isn't fat, her mom always says she is overweight and fat, ever since she was in 2nd grade, and even hits her sometimes. She threatens not to give her food if she doesn't work out. Her mom always also calls her useless, and worthless, and tells her she has no promise in life. She makes her sign up for things she hates (swimming, other sports), and when she says she doesn't want to do them, her mom shames her even more. Her mom always compares her to other kids, for example saying: "(insert name here) is so thin and beautiful! The other day, she won a medal in swimming, and one for writing, and one for art. You are just a useless child. You were a mistake in my life, and I wish that you were dead, and I didn't give birth to you." (I have to post the rest in updates as the word count is too high) Her mom acts like this some days, and other days she is normal, or a mix of both, so one day when she thinks she should tell someone, her mom acts nice, so she thinks she doesn't need to tell a counsellor. When she has told school counsellors, they call her mom, but her mom guilt trips her instead, so the next time she goes she has to lie about her mom, to avoid being guilt tripped again. Ok, I have a confession. This is actually me, not a friend.

My 16 year old daughter ran away from her father's house over a year ago, because the court system would not allow her to live with me. She was claiming her father was mentally abusing her, that there was no food at the house, and so on. (I don't want to get into all that; It's not the point.) For gods knows what reason, the courts called her a liar. She was doing horrible in school (She was in 10th grade at the time) and she clearly was unhappy living with her father. She was given a choice to live with her father, her grandparents, or to go to a shelter. She chose her grandparents, but they didn't want her so they dropped her off at a shelter. When Christmas came around, she ran away from the shelter. I believe this was December 19th 2014. Since then no one has heard from her. However I got in contact with one of her friends who told me she wants to fix this situation. She does not want to return if that means she will be put in a detention center, but says she will come back if her father signs over custody to me. I have no custody of her what so ever, and I don't know if her father can do that without her being present. If not, what are her options? She has been completely MIA. She hasn't been in school since she left either. I just hope there's a way out of this because i need to know she is safe! Please help! No one will give me information since I don't have any custody, but I NEED answers!!
