My boyfriend of a bit over a year makes $37,000. I make about $8,000 since im in federal work study in graduate school and my traineeship/internship on the side doesn't pay. He says rent is $600. He has his other extra expenses such as gas, utilities, laundry, he helps his mom a little bit, and has 2 cats, internet, and food. We are finally going on a trip to yosemite. He paid for the camping reservations (180$), he got new tires for his jeep, snow chains, firewiood, water, and is paying for gas. I am getting the food, we are using my tent. Everything was fine. Until now he got the chains and paid his car insurance, he complained saying it's not fair my life is easy I get to eat at restaurants while he works so hard to do the trip and for me, etc. and he can't get shoes or new clothes. Last year he complained saying I go eat with friends but he can't get shoes n clothes. It is not my fault I decided to stay home to save and Im in 2 grad programs, work, and internship. He left home at 18. His mom is a housekeeper and no dad to ever help him. I understand but it is not my fault. He didn't finish school said he wants to but it takes time. He has always had to work full time and says he wants to finish his accounting degree. Im hurt he tried to make me feel guilty. Is he lying about his income or what he spends it on? Please help. He is 28 and I am 25.

He lives in a small apartment, isn't materialistic and kind of has everything. He doesn't drink alcohol or coffee and already has enough tea to last to the next century. I can't possibly think of anything to get him that I haven't already gotten him (I've made him a photo album in the past, made him SO MUCH ART, gotten him a shoe rack, a door mat, incense, etc) and in fact his place is already kind of cluttered. I make him cookies every year already and I'm at a loss for what to get him this year. I feel gift cards are too impersonal. Any ideas? He's very particular on things like his wallet and phone case, so none of that.

So whenever she starts yelling at me for no reason, I let her finish what she has to say. Then I go to my room, but she still is going on. Sometimes when I'm just talking to her normally she'll tell me "Shut up you talk to much." Then when she is angry, "You don't know when to shut up." I feel she is being hypocritical about 'not knowing when to shut up'. I'm not trying to disrespect her, but honestly, she doesn't stop going on after she got done yelling at me.

My friend told me that her father gets angry when she refers to him using "he," "him," or "his." He told her it s disrespectful to refer to him using pronouns and that she is only allowed to call him Dad. The thing that confuses me is that calling him Dad all the time doesn t make sense. Like, if she were to say "Dad wants me to get in Dad s car and go to the store with Dad," that isn t even proper grammar. Have you ever heard of it being disrespectful to refer to your parents using pronouns, or is her dad just crazy? If you have heard of this, can you please explain to me what makes pronouns "disrespectful"?

My father is 62, my mother is 51 (born in 1955 and 65, respectively). They met when my mother was in her early twenties and my father in his early thirties. I'm 16 years old, with a thirteen year old younger brother. I've always known they were older parents, but recently their age gap came up in a conversation with a few of my friends, who seemed very surprised. Now they won't drop the subject. I realize ten years may be above average, but is it really THAT much?

I have a friend and she says its a living hell,, like having a third parent who is always lame and thinks he is the wisest. I dunno, is it like that?? just out of curiousity. If i had a big brother, i would probably try to be a good little sister

i grew up in a hectic home with an abusive father he also us to drink a lot. ( 7 people in a two bedroom home and one bathroom) he cheated on my mom a few times, i do remember him being lovable but as we got older he just became very unpredictable and treated us bad. my parents are still married but i sometimes visits them we live in the city and they are getting older and there health is not very good.

by kids I mean teens

I'm 30 and he's almost 60, I live maybe 30 minutes away but I never see my parents except for on birthdays and holidays cuz I'm always so busy. I'm really at a loss what to do for his birthday. We never really hang out or anything, haven't been really close past couple years since I've been at college just only because I've been busy and working. He was working all the time too but he just retired. So I'm not sure what to do should I just ask him? I'm thinking about sending him a text and saying, something like hey dad I have a couple things for you for your birthday just wondering what you have planned or what you want to do?

So here's the situation. I'm a 19 year old, single mom living at home with my mother and 6 younger siblings. The 5 youngest, 3 girls agreed 16, 13, and 12, and two boys ages 10 and 8, and constantly beating each other up, sometimes nearly breaking bones. There is a long history of abuse, both sexual and physical, from my "father", who is now in prison for his actions. I don't want my son exposed to the violence in the home, but I dint have the finances to move out, and am not willing to go to a homeless shelter, which will just increase the risk of my child being exposed to violence and even being hurt. Should I call the cops when they beat each other up, or let mom deal with it when she gets oft work? What should I do? I'm at the end of my rope.

Hi, I am a 16 year old girl (I will be 17 on April 28th). I come from a very poor family. My mother had a brain injury, she doesn't make that much money from her SSI check. I think that she only makes about $750 a month. My sister is a lazy, selfish fat whore. My brother is a lazy bum. Due to the fact that I did not have money, I had to get on welfare about a year ago. The government is currently giving me $200 in cash and $100 in food stamps. The only thing that I can really buy is food. I can't buy clothes or anything else. Now, why do I hate my family? I hate them because they are thieves and selfish. I ONLY MAKE $200 in cash, and my grand mom thinks that she can keep using my money to buys cigarettes. I just got my first $100 check the other day, and she spent it on HER bills (She also makes about $750 a month). This is really frustrating me. I am currently looking for a job, so that I do not have to worry about her using my money. I am just really frustrated. She continues to do this EVERY month. I hate the fact that whenever I ask them (my family) for something (I only ask for something when it is pertaining to school) they drag their feet, do a half *** job, or don't do it at all. However, when their lazy asses want me to do something, they expect me to jump up right then and there to get it done. I do not graduate until I am 19, because I was held back in 9th grade. I am really ready to run away. I do not think that I can go another year with these people. My grand mother collects my money for me. I can't collect it myself. I am only 16 years old.

People don't realize they're people too. As a female with two brothers, I hated being the oldest and only female. As a teenager, although I never broke the law or anything, but I would get in trouble a lot in school (it's usually because I fought back against the people bullying me, not because I loved getting into trouble). My mother would go on and on about how I'm a bad example for my younger brothers, despite the fact that we're only ONE YEAR APART and they knew right from wrong. Teenagers are generally immature people, so why was it wrong for me to act immature?? In my opinion, NOBODY is obligated to be examples for anybody (except parents and people who CHOOSE to be role models).

I call my parents mom and dad like everyone else. I call my grandma on my dad's side "Mawmaw" and my grandpa on my dad's side "Pawpaw". I call my grandma/grandpa on my mom's side "Mimi" and "Pawpaw". Annnnnnd I call my godparents "Parrain" and "Nanny" Yeah, before you say this is weird, I've called them that my whole life. My family's from Louisiana so we have different names and sh!t.

Both of my parents just talked to me about it...they're going into counseling. The idea of them getting divorced does scare me, but I don't see the cheating as awful at all. I've never met his girlfriend, and...it just feels like it's not my business. I honestly could careless. BUT, my parents spent a long time telling me everything,m and acted like it was a huge deal, so should I be more emotional or upset?

Its my 16th birthday today and its ******* hell. Everybody forgot it, my parents are having a fight with my brother and im just sitting in my room feeling really unwanted and not loved. Its 1 day and they forgot. What should i do?

I lived with my grandparents from age 5 to age 9. When I was 9, my grandma, or Mema, died. I wasn't prepared for it and never got a chance to say goodbye. In fact, I wasn't even there when she passed. I was with my aunt and uncle. It wasn't until I was about 22 and found Mema's death certificate, that it really hit me. She was gone. She was NEVER coming back. I mean, I'd known logically for quite some time but I guess I just couldn't fully accept it until I saw that death certificate. Why did it take me 13 years to accept that she was dead and would never be coming back?

Hasn't seen her since they separated in 2009 and their two kids were not with her. I could have kept walking but out of surprise and impulse I said hello and asked how she and her family were and gave my condolences that her father had died a few years ago. Only a short 5 minute conversation. So was I unfaithful to my brother by being nice? She left him over money so her name is not looked kindly upon in my family.

My little brother watched a scary video and now my parents went somewhere and im alone with my older sister and him, he wanted to go to my room and i let him at first but i was watching some innapropriate youtubers who swear and stuff and i told him to go out of the room and he said no and i got kinda mad because he wasn't listening then i literally dragged him out and he started crying when i shut the door. I feel bad but Idk If i did the right thing. Should i let him in the room?

my gf told her parents about me but she never told them i was black and they never saw pictures of me or anything yet. because her dad is racist, she tells me i've seen her dad before though, outside of a window when he was talking to her so he didn't see me but today in a store i was taking a leak. i was in the bathroom. her dad walked in and used a urinal a couple away from me. i was staring at him and he was like "what are you looking at" all grouchy and i was speechless and just looked away the point is omg her dad saw me, and he saw that i am black. what do i do? i'm real scare

This usually would be a good thing but I'm 23 living at home saving for a house to move into. We got some new neighbors about 2 years ago. They are a married couple with a then 15...now 16 or 17. Well I broke up with my one and only real girlfriend as she moved to college out of state who was 5 years older then me. I lost my virginity to her when I was 17. This girl who I'm not into younger girls for whatever reason is for obvious reasons too young for me right now but could work out someday. She's sooo pretty...way better then my last gf. I just think she's way immature and not in a good way and her personality is very lame. But I haven't talked to her in a year I think so maybe things change. I see her in her bedroom across from mine at night and she's always showing her boobs, *** and vag to me in the window....then she closes the curtain. When this happens I just have to jack it. I'm confused if I should wait until she's 18 and hope she works out cause I'm going to be honest I want her mouth on my penis for starters. But I don't know if I can wait. I hate the fact you can't do a minor. I was a minor when I was with my older gf so what's the problem? What would you do?

My elder sister smacks my butt and always call me "my slave boy", recently, she wants so badly to crossdress me, and I am so creeped from her behavior

My mom and I had a huge fight this weekend because she told me to tell the driver to put 20 dollars worth of gas but he put 60 which isnt my fault. I told her I tried to kill myself and she doesn t care. I just moved and everything is very emotional for me. We are now not talking. My dad then took me to out that day so he wss my only source of love. However today I discovered in his email that he s been emailing two women inappropriate things. It isn t inappropriate in the general sense but it is considering he has a three children and a wife. I don t know what to do because if I say anything I might not be able to apply for private school or go to college.

We are getting along and I want to bring him a gift to be nice. We live in different states and are meeting up so he can see her. I'd like to spend about $50 or less. Also my daughter is only a few months old if that matters.

I go to school and i have a part time job. Myparents are very controlling. Im never allowed to be out after 22:30. They search my room and go through my phone all the time like they dont trust me. They also pick me up from school because they dont want me to go home alone. They make me feel like i am 8 years old and it's starting to affect my mental health. Im going insane. I dont have any friends either because of my parents. I tried to talk to them about it once and they took my phone wich i paid for. I did not get it back for 2 weeks and i was grounded. I cant wait until i turn 18 so i can move out and NEVER speak to them EVER again. What can i do to make it easier to live with my parents now that im 17? There is alot more my parents do to controll me but it's to much to write down

My mom has never actually been a parent. She made her sick mom take care of her one daughter and with me, my dad toom care of me until he passed away when I was 14 and she was a very poor excuse for a mom. She has bipolar but sometimes I think she is just plain not there in the head. She has been arrested for domestic violence and everyone who knows her knows she is crazy... Lately she has been saying she is getting rid of all the animals she has bc she has to clean their mess up and ahe can't take it. She said it was either the animals or her that's leaving. She said she is little miss slave girl around the house and says she wishes she were dead. She says it infront of her husband (who fully supports her) me and her younger daughter who is 10. She doesn't even have a conversation with me and she threatened to kick me out and make me homeless bc I sometimes talk to the animals at night when they lay by me and that I have adhd and don't respect her wishes..everything she says is untrue I can assure you. None of us are bad kids, but she makes us out to be bad... Is this an unfit mother?

Ok, story is I had been admitted to mental ward 3 times from age 20 to 24. After each stay in ward, I had been ordered to attend a mental health clinic for at least a year. After the third time, I was ordered to go for at least 3 years. One day, I was molested by a guy I met online. I called dad for help, and he ordered me to come back or he'll call the police and have me arrested. When I got home safely, he said he'll come with me to the next appointment at the mental health clinic. At the appointment, when me, my dad and three counsellors sat down, my dad suddenly started shouting at them what happened to me and my mental state. He pointed his finger at them aggressively and accused them of not doing their job of helping me despite me going for so long. He also shouted about a time he needed references for a welfare form and he had asked the clinic for assistance. He complained that he had waited up to 5 weeks before he even got a response. He was very angry with the head counsellor, who was a heavily pregnant woman. He almost threw his form at her and commanded her to read it so she know what he wanted. Afterwards, we left, and my dad calmed down and spoke calmly. I asked my dad why he went off like that, and my mum said: "because we're so fed up with their involvement with you - and with us!" I know mental health services can really get into a person's business. Were my parents right? I had been going for over 5 years, spending a huge chunk of my 20s.

I had my bf living with me. At first I didn't want him to Bc we were still getting to date & my mum got him to stay, he was living here but my mum was the one who kept saying he didn't want to pay bills, didn't buy food, or thought about the rent. Which he did. All those things. & he did want to pay it from the start WHEN SHE WAS THE ONE WHO GOT ME TO DATE HIM. He left the house to live with his "friends" & he says he still loves me & it was my mum's fault for doing so. she wanted him to "stay" she says but wanted the rent for the months he stayed. I want him & he says he wants me but wants us together. My mum keeps saying sh*t about him & every single time keeps mentioning sh*t he's done when I tell her it hurts to keep thinking about him. Now she's saying it's my fault that our whole family is family apart Bc she fights with my dad & that my brother listens to her more (when he doesn't & talks back to her.) she has hit me for still wanting him. Like wtf. Seriously ? How am I supposed to get over a relationship of almost a year where we've been through so much. My dad wants me with him but says it'll take time. Now my mum got mad & started crying then screaming then that she wanted to die like who the fvq does that ? What should I do ?. .

My dad and I are kinda fighting because I told him saying the C word is offensive especially around us as women. I told him that he is setting a horrible example for my little sisters who are 13 and 15. I also said that if anyone called me or my sisters that he would lose his mind. In our fight I said to that if someone called me that word I'd punch them in the face. My mom basically condones it and that makes me sick! How do I get him to stop? It's really bothersome. I have expressed this to him before but he doesn't stop. Thank god my little sisters know better and realize how horrible that word is. No matter how upset I am I would never ( and I haven't) called anyone that word. What do I do?

I'm 16 and I need to go away for the Summer to work or volunteer or anything. Can you guys give me some suggestions?

I was playing around with my little brothers toy because i was bored and my little sister walked about to me and hit my in the face (not really hard but hard) and took the toy and gave it to my brother she hit me so i spanked her (shes younger) still young enough to spank and my mom usually doesn't do anything and my sister gets away with everything so i did spank her it was red and was for a little bit my mom yelled at me and called me a crazy ***** and im only 13 i apoligized to my sister and said i was sorry but my mom was still going crazy saying i have something wrong with me i told her she's crazy and i did say i was sorry she said that doesnt matter you still hit her then i said stop calling me a ***** and she did it over and over and was mocking me so i called her it back to see how she likes it i know i shouldnt have done it and i regret it but shes always drinking and calling every ***** and idiot and retard and she's mean then she said if you don't stop im calling the cops on you i said call them i dont care i wanna leave .. then my dad walked in the room and started yelling at me saying to stop i yelled back at him and said she's calling me a ***** and you dont care? and he said one more word and i will get up and smack you then he told my mom tomorrow after school to call dfs and juvenial detention?? i don't get it i really didnt mean to hit her that hard but whats juvy like tho? if i go (i dont want to tho)..

Please any tips will help and understand where im going and i understand its no better then home i've told my mom i wanna live with my friends but she wont let me?

Who would I need to contact about this. He was deceased in California and I know live in Arkansas. Where do I began my search at. I just don't want this to be a waste of my time if my aunt is lying to me about my fathers will and all his belongs.

How to turnto growen up?Mom wont tel an da laughe I hat be kid i dont want to be kid anynore365u6rng/l;/////,D

we are both 16. My twin sister always hugs me a lot and tells me things like i love you bro. I think she might be falling in love with me and i know what incest is its wrong. How can i explain her its not ok to be in love with your brother??

To cut to the chase, I like her, it's up to me to make the first move but to do that I have to stop being so intimidated by her family. Her parents are strict, her uncle is a mayor in some country called Miconeshia, her aunt is a manager of the bank my parents use, her grandfather is rich, he owns some islands around someone-idk-, and one of her aunt has a million close to that in her bank. They spoil her and are overprotective. She's sweet and different. The only problem is she's been brainwashed to focus on politics and stuff. We are both in tenth grade but go to different schools. Help?

I'm in grad school & I have ADHD. After I write a paper, I often ask my mom to just look over my papers to make sure they make sense. She's extremely intelligent well above average. I feel like she looks at my ADHD as a "learning disorder" that makes me stupid.Everytime I ask her for help she makes comments about my writing & how my writing sounds "childish" if I do write something very strong she acts completely shocked & will ask things like "who helped you?" "Did you REALLY write this yourself?" When she does look over my work she will practically rewrite my entire paper. Instead of giving me critiques & feedback she just rewrites the entire thing or a large chunk of it. It makes me feel like I'm a complete & total idiot. I feel like if it wasn't for her I'd prob have failed out of college & grad school. She might as well be taking the classes not me. I have nobody else to ask about critique my work & since my classes are online there is no writing center I can go to for assistance. I'm thinking I'm not capable of grad school & maybe I should just drop out. If I can't "do it on my own" what the point? I've been scared to hand in what I write because of how harshly my mom critiques my work. Any advice? I'm pretty down & feel like I'm dumb.

My sister used my eraser s bottom(rectangular part) that I didn t use yet. I wanted to use it from upper part. So I said my sister you messed up my feeling . she is upset about me because she thinks herself isn t do anything wrong(I guess). am I wrong and lunatic?

This girl is sweet and quiet but crazy most times. She's got a beautiful smile. I think her aunt's bank has a million or close to that in it. She has some rich relatives but she's different. I feel like me and here were meant to be but in order for that to happen I need to make the first move. The problem is her dad is real strict and her mom doesn't want her to focus on anything but school. My parents know her aunt Zarrin because she's the manager (I forgot what kind) of the bank that my parents use. That's how I first saw her. She was asking her aunt for an internship at the bank. I think she'll be hard to get considering that she also has male relatives who are government officials so I'm guessing they raised her to have high standards? One of her uncles is a Mayor some country called Microneshia. I feel so intimidated by her family even though they are so nice! She just focuses on school and college and politics, her hair and fashion but barely thinks of me as more than someone she talks to every now and then. I like her. I think that I met her for a reason. What are some ways that I can change her JUST A BIT so she can stop focusing on academic things and have some fun with me? (nothing inappropriate). How can I get her family to see me worthy to take her out? We are both in 10th grade (we attend different schools) so she needs to start having the time of her life. I'm here to give that time to her. By the time of her life, to clear it up, I only mean having fun- bonfires, long car rides, parties, movies- before she gets to college, I've got to she has the best years of high school.

It's been 2 months in my workplace and I don't fit in. There are many things. The main reason is because I don't talk much because of my shy nature and I am not knowledgeable enough. I also suffer from inferiority complex. How do I deal with all this ?

I have a little story, it might have been told before by other people. I don't have it as bad as others, but it still hurts. I can be a real ***** (excuse my language) sometimes, but so can my brothers. My parents obviously have a problem with me. Whenever we're in the same room, she always asks me to do her **** for her. She also ignores me a lot. I stand next to her and say,"Mommy?" and wait for her to answer. Then I say it over and over again until she says,"WHAT!!???" She gets irratated with me just because SHE didn't ******* answer me! A couple nights ago, we actually cuddled together, and I thought it meant something. The next night, I always feel left out. my parent get to talk to eachother and my brothers are playing chess, again, leaving me out, alone. So I went to my brothers, hoping I wouldn't feel left out. They only got annoyed, and told me to leave. This has happened to me over and over again, so I got mad and threw some chess pieces. Collin slapped me across the face. My step dad was like to him,"Why did you slap her?" Then I thought I was finally not the only one getting in trouble. But about 20 minutes after I went to my bedroom to cry, I heard my step dad say sorry. TO COLLIN. (btw, there's more, but my words are limited)

I'm torn. My aunt, uncle, and cousins who are a lot of fun to be around want me to go to Ski Bruel with them, I love skiing so much and I really want to go, it's tomorrow, but my best friend who I FaceTime like everyday because we are both homeschooled, wants me to go to her birthday party shopping. I was really looking forward to skiing seeing how I haven't gotten a chance to in nearly two years but it also would be quite expensive, $30 for skiis, $40 to get in, and then money for food. We are going through a rough patch in the family and my aunt owes my parents about $1800 so my mom was just going to ask if they could pay for me and my mom and dad can take it off their bill, because they rented them a house. I also don't usually spend money on the sabbith day but I was going to make an exception for tomorrow. Please help me, what do I do?

so my whole life i have always been bigger, ive been been told by my family i should go on a diet, i never really took it seriously, id do it for 2 days and give up, but like last week i decided, im gonna do it, im not happy with myself, so ive been not eating breakfeast cause im not hungry in the morning and im always late, and i dont pack a lunch at school becuase it just smooshes all day, and when i get home at four... my mom has been making merice, veggies and stuff, well after a week of eating rice, my mom said "hey you want rice right? and i told her, i didnt want any cause its all i eat now and i didnt want it. so she asked if i wanted fish, and i HATE fish so i said no, then she said well then have pasta with the family, and as much as i wanted to, i said no, i told her i didnt want to and my sister said i was being an "ungreatful *****" and then after arguing i said i didnt want anythiing and i said id just pass dinner, i didnt need to have anything, so i went in my room and fell asleep, i woke up at around 7 STARVING so i went to the kitvhen and saw there was rice so i had some and went back to my room and went to bed, so when i woke up this morning my sister continued to tell me i was wrong and ungrateful and a ****, so i was aeguing with her and she told me "just get off your stupid ******* diet" which really hurt me cause this is what they wanted, then i walked away and she said "i can tell your gonna break" that hurts my feelings... idk shes so mean to me.

We play Xbox in the basement and I ve checked everywhere in the basement

So last night I had a really bad fight with my mom and I had to stay with my dad until I was ready to go back to my moms. I was crying for two hours straight. I had barely enough time to study for the two tests I had today. This morning I just felt like crap because I stayed up late to study for the tests and because of the crying. The problem is though, A few weeks ago I was sent home for being sick then I missed the day after that, and a few weeks before that, I missed two days of school due to another family problem. I just want to know if this is bad or not. My dad is telling me it's really bad. I just need advice.

I have this friend that is a girl and we are really close. It's almost like we're a couple. But for a while I feel like she's been so ungrateful and just plain making stupid decisions. I've always been there by her side for everything. Even when I couldn't be there for her financially I was there for support. I was there any way I could be there for her. I even slept at the hospital with her for almost a month. I went to work from the hospital everyday and came back at the end of the day to be with her. I'm there when she needs someone to talk to even if it's not what she wants to hear. And she gets mad when I say something she doesn't like or agree with. Like she just took a job with less money back in the city that I live in and she has no money saved up and no place to live when she came back. I told her that it wasn't a good idea to accept that job under the current circumstances that she's in. Why would you take a job with less money and no place to live? She can't afford an apartment right now. She has a super high car payment and other bills stacked on top of that. I just thought that was a stupid move on her part and I told her that and she got angry with me saying she needs to leave her mom's because her mom gets on her nerves. I'm like I get that but there is still no place for you to stay once you come back. I would let her stay with me but I still live with my parents and have my own problems. I already tried convincing my parents to let her stay. That was a no. My parents are bible thumpers. Super Christian people so they aren't okay with that. I haven't always been able to provide what she needs but the way she looks at things is that she says she needs somebody to help her. Basically she wants to depend on someone. She's depended on me a lot and over the years it has taken a toll on me. I get tired of her crap sometimes man. She is always calling me selfish but with what I've done for her I disagree. Because I wasn't there to help out with money She calls me selfish. I even slept in her car with her when she was sleeping in her car. But she still claims that I don't care. We lived together once back in 2012 and I was like I ain't doing this again. Too much arguing and the things she does just gets on my nerves. She acts like I'm obligated to get another apartment with her. And now she is using this guy that she knows likes her for a place to stay. She wasn't even talking about this guy before he offered her a place to stay. But like I tried to tell her. He likes you so he's going to do things like that. Now she's talking about should she give him a chance. I'm like you weren't even thinking about this guy two weeks ago but now you wanna give him a chance please stop. I used to pick her up and take her to work everyday and never asked for gas money. and when I did give her money I never asked her to pay me back. When we go out I pay for mostly everything even though she'll argue me down and say that she pays for stuff too She doesn't pay for nearly as much of the things that I pay for when we got out. We got eat I pay. We go to the movies I pay. Getting gas damn near pay for that too since she always wants me to pump her gas.

My sexy little sister who loves ***

When I was raped at 15, she said I was raped for attention. When I was older, she was getting paid to take care of my grandma when she was sick. She met a new dude, I ended up taking care of my grandma. But she kept the $. She'll call me names, get physically violent when things don't go her way. My grandma was ready to pass away & wanted me. When I asked her not to favor my kids over my sisters. She asked if she could babysit to quit her job, but yet she was flaking on me. I went to my old sitter, she flipped out & hit me. If I need her help, I had to pay her. When I asked her to come take me to the hospital til hubby could get there, when I was having a risky surgery for a tumor(stage 2 ovarian cancer survivor) cause I wanted my family there. When I found out I had cancer, she got pissed that my church was throwing me a fundraiser & not her. She got mad at our Pastor cause she asked him for $ & he said you know your daughter is the one that has cancer Right? She has stolen over $3000 from me. Recently she got busted w/ meth & I told her she wasn't going to be around my kids(Hubby & I don't smoke cigs or drink, let alone have drugs around our kids). So she called me names. She said she felt like I was the mom & she was the kid, so I needed to be there for her. I'm sorry, I'm parenting my own children. She then told me she needed more $ because she had PTSD, Bulemia & depression. She trash talked my grandma/grandpa & its all their fault she is using drugs.

I took a picture with a college men's sports player and my dad saw it on my Instagram and got upset saying that they're 18-20 and I shouldn't hug them "like my grandpa" with my whole body and squeezing them even though I was barely hugging them. It only looked that way in the picture even though I kept saying I was only doing it for the picture and I wasn't hugging with my whole body. Is he just being a dad or something else? Thanks

Hi guys, I have been having this problem for like 3 years. My brothers are in army and I have no father, I also have a young 2 year old brother and im 17 by the way. I understand that my mom may have stress issues with work and stuff. But I dont know why she must be so angry at me and my little brother every single day. (Literally). I am a boy and I sometimes cry alone. Dont get me wrong, yes i get food, and shelter and stuff. Even my school pocket money is quite less but I never EVER complained before. Everytime I come home from school, I will get the nag nag and nag and she will shout like 24/7. Sometimes I cant take it anymore, I try to talk politely to stand up for my rights on what I think is right, and she will say *you talk back to me!!!???*. I barely can go out with my friends because majority of my time is spent in school studying and at home babysitting. I always think of having a girlfriend because I need someone to love and care and even hug and share my problems. Sadly there are no girls out there that is my type. This is embarassing but, I have an imaginary girlfriend to share my problems with and I hug my pillow every night thinking its her and comforting myself with *her*. I cant join activities and stuff because I have to babysit my bro. Sometimes I feel like commiting suicide. I cant see a councellor or else my mom will be more angry. I need help from you guys, going to be a long life until I can live by myself.

Okay I am 17 and will be 18 in May. My fiancé of 2 years is 20 and will be 21in April. We live together at my parents house. My family moved to AZ and I was forced to go to he came with me :) We both planned to go back to NY when I turned 18. So after my parents for out they tried to kick him out before Christmas.Yeah assholes. So to avoid drama I said fine we will live her. Well it's now March and we still plan to go back. My fiancé already has a job lined up and his father said he will help him with rent and any extreme costs if needed. I don't know how to break it to my parents because they always threaten my fiancé even though it's also my choice. My fiancé has told me to just leave a note before we leave May 23. So when they wake up I'm already gone and no drama. But I have mixed feelings about it. I know if I tell them now ahead of time it'll cause A LOT of drama and him getting kicked out my house. I am very emotional and easy to push around and I usual do what others say (HORRIBLE QUALITIES) I need to know how to break the news or maybe in this case my Fiancé is right and leave a note?? Help me!??

So I've been getting straight A's for 2 and 1/2 years (HighSchool). But this year I have 2 B's. My dad wanted me so bad to a be a valedictorian. BUT I DON'T WANT TO! Working so hard is giving me alot of pressure to be one. What should I do? I don't want my parents expectations to go down :'( I'm really sad because I just want to do my best but I just can't seem to.

My brother is really mad at me! I behaved foolishly. I got a little jealous that my older brother, who's 16, was spending less time with me, so I sort of spied on him and found out he was dating a guy, I told my parents he was gay and they got really upset and mad at him and he's not living with us anymore. It's not he's homeless, he's staying with friends. How do I get him to forgive me?

Anyway, my friend's mother won't let me spend the night at there house unless me and my friend sleep in the apartment that they have next to there house. I have known them for years and I have spent the night at there house when I was 13 and 14. He has like 4 siblings that are girls and 1 boy. 2 of them are like 6 or 7 and others are like 12 and 17. Anyway my friends mother spoke to me about this in her car and basically said you can't spend the night in the same house with the girls. Also we can't sleep in the apartment unless we have his dad or another adult and we're both 15. ( I know it's sad) Overall she won't let me spend the night in the same house because she basically thinks I have sex drive or addict. She even said it. I see this as a dispute as in she is angry at me or just personal attack

I don t ever leave my house. I graduated in December and I m 18 now, but my mom won t let me get my driver s license. I have gained nearly 20 pounds since the end of my junior year of high school. She constantly buys unhealthy food, and gets angry if I ask her to buy healthier things. It s so frustrating to have gained so much weight, I don t even feel like myself anymore. I cried because of it today. My mom won t even take me to a nearby park so I can run off some of this weight. I m miserable. What can I do?

It's almost as if he doesn't care about me. Whenever I try to show him something cool I did at school, he ignores me completely, even if he isn't doing anything. And also whenever he yells at me for something of little importance like who gets to have lag free gaming, it's almost as if he forces conflict on me and enjoys having power against me because he is an adult. I'm only allowed three days out of a week to play video games while he gets to play any time he wants. I work hard in school, finish all my homework days before it's due, and have all straight As. At least in my opinion I should be allowed the three days to play games, but every week my father finds something to yell at me so he gets all the gaming to himself without lag. Adding to this, he never helps my mom with any chores around the house. I do sometimes, but whenever I see him, he's just playing Destiny. This is the same for when bill time comes around. I feel bad for my mom having to do all the bills in one night.

My dad told me if I smoked on property again he would kick me out. I havn't smoked on the property but I did have weed(half gram) in my room that he found now I'm getting kicked out. I am 20 so it's not like they have to care for me or anything, but I have no job and no income as i'm at uni still. Quick ideas on how to get some money or places to stay so I can eat?? I've applied to many jobs today and I have to be out tomorrow, however jobs don't just come the day after you apply and i'll have to wait for a week or two for pay after I get one. Please help me with Ideas to help me out I really need it right now. I don't live in the US.
