Hi! I want to buy one of these guns for my brothers birthday because he is a gun enthusiast. We have a lot of money because my husband works hard and my brother doesn't have that much so we always get him something good for his birthday. I heard they are expensive and I don't have much experience with firearms.

My parents have the worst attitudes they will literally walk into any place and start making a scene and either ridicule or constantly harrass any worker they come across as well as complain about sht that isn't even a big deal. They are the type of people that feel like they are better than everyone and find pleasure in making everyone else feel like sht. If I ever have problems and I go to them they just kick me down more instead of helping me. I will be moving out soon and im debating on whether I should cut all ties with these ppl and never see them again they are huge negative influences in my life.

First off, my mother divorced when I was 2 and remarried when I was 3. The man she remarried was nice, and sweet and I think he truly did love us kids. I don't remember much from any time before I was 4 or 5, other than what people tell me. I remember some from age 7, 8 and 9. I loved this new guy my mom married, because he was really nice and just overall a really nice person in my eyes. Really, this isn't a big deal, if it is anything at all. He used to rub my legs, nothing too weird. My mom taught me from a young age to be weary when going out at night and always have a way to defend yourself, and if police tried to pull you over wait until there's a well lit gas station or somewhere where there's witnesses, just in case. Like I said, this man (who I considered more of a father than my biological father), all he used to do was rub my legs. And perhaps, it was just my 8 year old brain being stupid, but sometimes I felt he'd go too far up and I'd try to stop him at a certain point without outright confronting him and asking what he was doing. I was taught that if anybody touches you in a way that feels innappropriate, you should tell someone. He never actually touched my breasts or my "private area", and if he did I don't remember it. He died when I was 10. There was nothing he'd done other than that, and remembering it now, he'd even encouraged me to put on shorts every time he rubbed my legs (I used to not wear anything but oversized t-shirts, like dresses on me.) (cont) Thinking about it now, my mom was always really supportive, and still is. When I would itch anywhere near my vagina, she'd ask me if someone had been touching me there or something, just being cautious, making sure no one was abusing me. She'd even ask if my brother or sister were touching me, and it warms me to this day to think she would have believed me if it had been happening (but it never did). (cont 2) I've been wondering about this for a long time. Am I being paranoid, or does it sound like he was maybe going to try something? Thanks for reading this monster of a question.

Tengo 15 días de retraso,no tengo síntomas. Ayuda por favor...

I am a daughter,she's my mother, sometimes we don't get along, i think since my parents divorce our relationship has changed, and i think our relationship is kind of strained. things didn't stay the same,i think people change as they get older,tend to argue more over stupid things. My mom is a picky person,Im nothing compared to her,she wants everything her way ,if she doesn't get her way,she gets pissed. We were talking about weight watchers and she told me she started today and she told me if your interested its 3 some odd dollars i think a day or something to control portion sizing,and the goal of her losing weight depends on how well she does. I'm glad that she is taking on healthy habits even after she got a blood clot over 10 years ago.My mom tries to encourage me to go on weight watchers or some other diet program, i have lost weight before but i never went on a diet program to help myself lose weight, i think a person is more capable of losing weight on their own and eating healthfully on their own without having to pay for a diet program. I think it be just as cheap to go on your own than to have a diet program,her probs are different than mine cuz I'm younger,its easy for young person to lose weight than it is for a 50+y/o person,when i told her that i go on my own, she said "well good luck with that" and I just got defensive with her and mocked her "well good luck with that" and she's like "you know what, its hard for me to talk to you cuz you get defensive" I love my mother but some things i dont like about her,she is pushy,argumentative,and wants things her way. Plus i dont think that my mom is very supportive of me w/ my decision making of what I'm doing is best for me,because i have lost weight before without any diet programs,i did it the hard way and i think the hard way is better.You just have to be committed to losing weight if that is something you want to do.Plus, I'm younger than she is and her problems are much different than mine, plus its easy for a younger person to lose weight than it is for someone who is middle aged or elderly.I know my mom cares about me and what happens to me but sometimes we dont always agree,and she has dieted on her own and it didnt work for her,but i have done it without diet programs, i basically just ate things that were healthy and with my youth,it was easy for me to lose weight,and Ive lost over 15 lbs,I've gained 15 lbs back since thanksgiving came around and i just started eating more and more and now i have to burn the 15 lbs off that i have gained in the past year

Yesterday I went over to my friends house. It was going to be the last sleepover we ever had (except on special occasions.) We were going to stay up all night. We decided to sneak out with her brother. We only went up the hill, he played his guitar and we watched the stars. And then I got a text from his mother. We came home and she was really mad. She took me home. It was 12:00 AM when I got home. My dad was in bed but he had left the door unlocked for me. He asked for my phone, because I give it to him at night every night so I can get a good nights sleep. I pretended to be asleep this morning so I could escape the talk. My sister has snuck out before, and I feel like my parents are going to think I'm just like her. I want to ease my punishment a little, what can I say to make it seem like I'm truly sorry? (I am truly sorry.)

I'm 18 years old I have a daughter that is 4 months I don't have a job my mom put me out I'm staying with my daughters father parents because my daughter father died his parents are putting us out they say we have 2 months to find some where else to live and I honestly don't know what to do I don't have any friends to stay with and I'm scared to stay in a shelter I heard that they are very dangerous I don't want to put my daughter in any harm so can you guys please help me and don't judge me please I get enough of that thank you

I'm currently a junior in high school and will be turning 18 in 4 months. My mom and I have always had somewhat of a rocky relationship. My mom will always be picking a fight with either my stepdad or with me. We live a very nice lifestyle and I only work to cover my costs (get, food, clothes, makeup) but I am ready to leave. My mom verbally abuses me quite frequently (I have depression, anxiety, and self loathe because of her) and there have been 4 instances in the last 2 weeks that she has hit me. She is extremely mad that my boyfriend of over a year tried to sneak over to see me outside for a few minutes on his 18th birthday 2 weeks ago. She has completely blown up about it and told me that he doesn't love me, respect me, or respect her. When she found out that I'm still dating him yesterday, she gave me an ultimatum to either move out or break up with him. I am very much so considering moving out and going to live with him at his grandmother's house because we make enough money per month to easily survive and he also has over $2k in investments and his family is willing to help me, and we were already planning on moving in together after graduation next year when we start at KU. What are Missouri laws and could my parents get me or his family and him in trouble? Also, could I be emancipated on the grounds of abuse if I show that I am capable to live without them? I don't want to cut ties with my family because I love them but at the same timemail everything has piled up. Also, she is very controlling and she rarely let's me go out. I have 4.5 GPA and am an honor student. She talks about his family like they are trash and calls him names, even though he has a 4.2 GPA, an honor student, plays football, and runs track. Nothing seems to be good enough for her, and I don't think I deserve any of this abuse. She refuses to speak to a psychiatrist and never admits when she's wrong. She also uses the doctor card and says that she's better than everyone else. She used to love him and joke that she can't wait till we're married because he's like her son.

I mean him. You're all such bigots! My SON should be allowed to be who HE says he is!

There are 4 people in my family who are nurses. My mom included. My sister is training to be a nurse, but I don't want to do that kind of stuff. /: I want to open a clothes store, or design dresses for celebrities. I'm not really a 7 A.M to 7 P.M person. She says nurses make good money, but that's not what its about for me. I'd rather be happy and making less money than be sad and making tons. How should I break it to her? Shes already talking to me about universities and such.

He always says how my brothers are better then me he compares me to them saying they are better children he always compares me to he s friends daughters and make me feel so bad about myself I feel like an awful child because of him he always says I ruin everything. I will do one thing wrong or once and for all stand up for myself when he treats me badly and he starts yelling at me saying to me awful things that I don t even know how is he able to say those things to his own daughter and I stand there crying trying to defend myself while my mom just sits there and doesn t say anything I feel so bad about myself and insecure he also hit me a bunch of times when I didn t want to go to the pool with my brothers on family vacation and when I told him that I don t like the way he treats me he just grabbed me and pushed me towards the wall it hurt really bad I had a mark on my skin for awhile I don t know what to do I can t deal with this any more I have so much other things to do and it s hard to hang out with my friends that dont know anything about this and pretend like it s all Normal where it really isn t I really don t know what to do I feel so bad about myself I m crying right now because he jut did it again I wish I could just never be born he makes my life miserable and the sad part is that I love him he is my dad but it just feels like he would kill me easily if he had the chance. what should I do? Btw I m a 14 year old girl

They talk to us in person but when we aren't together we never hear from them and on fb they completely ignore us ,I asked about it and they said they are busy but they talk to others all day long . Why would they do this

I'll be 14 July 14th, I can barley go outside, she gets mad if I go outside when i'm home alone. I'm afraid to ask her if I can go on a walk because she'll most likely say "no"

I hate him so much... It's almost hard to describe. He always claims that I disrespect him when yet, I'm not even near him or talk to him most of the time. He's called me names before like b*tch or motherf*cker.....and once during an argument, he pushed my mom so I decided to walk in the livingroom (where they were arguing) and just said, "Don't push her." and so he got all mad and started yelling, "F*ck you!" at me, I was only twelve at that time, (this happened the day before my b-day btw, how wonderful :) )I'm now thirteen. He lies to me a lot also, once I called him so he could pick me up from school bc I had to stay for cheer and dance practice but he said he wasn't at the house which I knew he was bc it didn't sound like he was anywhere else but the house, so he made me walk in like 80-90 degree weather, on top of me having my back pack which weighs 30 lbs (yes I weighed my backpack) and to top it all, I was really sweaty, when I got home, he was just sitting on the couch, watching the tv and when I went in the house, he just got up and left. (Now this next story, I'm going to kind of make a big deal out of it) So one day, my stepdad comes home with three cupcakes and he stands in front of his/my mom's room with the cup cakes in his hand and asks my mom if she...

My mother is paranoid that these invisible people are messing with her. Following her. And switching out our locks even though the keys work. Breaking into our wifi and stealing our info. And she swears whoever is messing with us has a giant radiator beaming radiation on us and giving us cancer. CPS got involved because I made a call to the crisis team. I m 18. CPS got involved because I have a 13 year old sister. This was awhile ago. Yesterday DHS and Cops were hear because the CPS lady saw that my mom had a gun and that because my mom is trying to shoot these invisible people. I personally don t feel safe with it. I explained this and so they wanted my mom to take a psyche evaluation. Or give up her gun voluntarily until she got a psyche evaluation. Her brother stepped in and prevented everything from happening. I finally thought my mom was gonna get help. But no. And now me and my sister are locked inside my house and DHS is coming today. And we are told we are not allowed to speak to anyone and if we open the door our a$$es are gonna be beat. I want my mom to get help. What am I gonna do? And no. I really can't open the door. We have cameras in the house that she watches us on. Has been for months.

About a month ago I was wanting to break up with my girlfriend when she told me she was pregnant. She forgot to take her birth control about 3 months before that, so now we're 4 months in. I decided to hold off on telling her I wanted to break up with her after that, but since then our relationship is just getting more and more strained. At this point, I don't care what anyone tells me about bucking up or pushing through it. I hate her. Every little thing about her drives me crazy. Most people spend all day at work wanting to go back home, but I spend all day at home wanting to go back to work. I know it's messed up, but I'm to the point that I just fantasize about her dying in child birth all the time. I would never actually hurt her or anything. I just really, really wish she didn't exist anymore. She has horrible hygiene to the point of threatening the baby's health. She showers once a month. I've never seen her brush her teeth. She keeps getting urinary infections. She wasn't always like this. She took care of herself up until a month or two after we met. I think she thinks she 'caught' me or something after that point, and just decided to stop putting forth any effort. She also doesn't work. I understand if she doesn't want to work while she's pregnant, but she quit work well before that, around the same time she stopped showering regularly. Since then she's just been living off my wages, and I'm no millionaire. I'm working a college job on college wages. I pay her rent. I pay for her food. I even pay for her damn cat's (which I told her not to get) medical costs. I had thousands in savings before I met her, but now I'm in debt about the same amount. I had a good apartment near campus when I met her, but now I'm living out of her tiny, broken down apartment because I can't afford the rent on both and she can't build up the will power to get anyone to take over her lease so we can move. I've offered to handle it for her, but she won't let me. I had lots of friends before her and I would see my family every other week. Now I haven't had the free time to see my friends in weeks or my family in months. I had a 3.0 GPA before I met her with scholarships, now I don't have the time to take any more than 6 credit hours, my GPA has dropped to about 2.2, and as a result I'm paying for my own college out of pocket (or not actually, seeing as I can't afford it!) My questions is how do I break up with her? Should I wait until she has the baby so there won't be any stress? I don't know if I can afford to stay with her any longer. Should I break it off now? And how would I break it to her easy? Also, I don't plan on being a dead beat dad. I will be there for my child and support him or her. I just can't stand to support my girlfriend anymore. I would even gladly raise the child myself if that's what she wants. I just can't stand the mother of my child anymore.

k so a few months ago i disabled my ig bc i got bored. I called my cousin who lives overseas just to talk to her. a brief description of my cousin: can be mean, deceiving, lies alot, but most of the times shes nice n funny to me. so anyway when I called her, she started asking me about my instagram, she was like "why do u follow this celeb" or "I saw your comment on tht profile" btw SHE DOESNT EVEN HAVE AN INSTAGRAM WTF. like i get it EVERYBODY stalks each other once in a while, but her telling me is just embarrassing. doesn't she have anything better to do? oh yeah and she claims she found this stuff before deleting my acc. I told her i needed to go and hung up. I asked my mom what to do and she said to call her again in a week or so and act like nothing happened. I know it sounds stupid but the way she said those things embarrassed me and really ruined my day. so when i call her next week what should I say to her if she brings up the convo abt my ig

I'm 15 and homeschooled. I'm a straight A student but I made a very bad mistake a few weeks ago and plaigerized a paper because I had procrastinated and didn't want my mom to know and me get in trouble (I'm almost never in trouble). As a christian I know that what I did was very unacceptable, and I have laid awake at night feeling guilty. It is really effecting me. What makes it worse is that I got an A+ on it, my (twin) sister has been hearing about how great I did on it, and it may even get me excused from the final exam for having over a 95 going into it....something I have not earned. The right thing to do, unquestionably, is to tell. But here is the catch, my mom is a big believer that for dishonesty (and pretty much only dishonesty), it should be a if you spare the rod you spoil the child type thing at any age. I haven't gotten the rod since I was like 11 and I really don't think spanking is appropriate at my age, and I really, really don't want the pain. I think it is the wrong thing for her to do as a parent at my age (I feel strongly about that). But I know she will follow through. But on the other hand, I do two wrongs make a right? Should I let her decision impact my decision? Sitting around Xmas hearing how great I've been made me feel like a hypocrit. It isn't easy living a lie.

Guys Please! This is a serious question! : (

My daughter has her first boyfriend since 4 months and she fought very hard to get us to agree he can sleep over so they can sleep together. We insisted we talked to the boy's parents and we all agreed that as long as they use contraception and get STD tested we'll be fine with it. We didn't think we gave her a hard time before they "could do it", we just thought we were thoughtful loving parents. Now he sleeps over about twice a week and my daughter became extremely obscene to us. She started to walk around the house topless, making sure we see her in the hallway. Two weeks ago she walked by the kitchen with what looked like sperm in her face and hair, again making sure we saw it. We were appalled. I tried talking to her last week and she blew me off "mom you're so oldschool". Why is she being this way? Were we too restrictive before we allowed her boyfriend over?

My little stepbrother has been having a hard time at school, he'll come home all sad and go straight to his room and then start sobbing. I'm a guy so I have no maternal instinct. I guess it's not my place since he's not technically my brother and I normally would just wait for his parents to get home and handle it. But he's just a little kid and being 10 years older than him it just rips my heart out to see him like this and not to do anything. I don't want him to start liking me or get attached to me but I'll risk it. Just talking to won't work because he's so upset you can't understand what he's saying.. What do I do?

My grandmother had an accident in Dec. 2015, she shattered her leg above the knee, has recovered and can barely walk without a cane. Here s where the problem is, my younger brother who is 14 abuses her. He steals her money for drugs, we also think he steals her pain pills that she needs for her leg. He calls her b**ch all the time, never "grandma", he pretends to hit her just to make her flinch and laughs at it, refuses to go to school(he hasn t gone for 2 weeks straight), throws things at her, shoves her and i ve seen him punch her in the arm. I try to intervene but i m 5 0", 120lbs (also 20 yrs old so I don t want to go to jail for doing something to a minor) and he has beaten me senseless for trying to help her. He s a huge 14 year old. Towers over me and weighs a lot more too. I ve called the cops and they literally told me it was MY fault for getting beaten. Earlier, she fell and he just stood over her yelling at her to get up even though she couldn t do it by herself and left her laying on the floor until I heard her yelling for help. She s in the process of surrendering custody over to my mother but WHAT CAN WE DO IN THE MEAN TIME? Can CPS or someone come and take him away until the process is done? She is psychially unable to care for him anymore and is in danger with him in the house, if she falls again she could never walk again.. Can anyone help with any answers? Please, me and my grandma both cannot handle this much longer.

Hello yahoo. So, when I was a baby, my parents split. I went with my dad and he cut off all contact with my mother. He raised me in an abusive manner. Causing me great depression for 12 years. A week before my 16th birthday, he said that he didn't want me anymore and that I'm a complete waste of time so he emailed my mother saying that he was send me to her, and currently here I am. I'm now 17, and I'm grounded for having my ipod stolen and my grades are a little low. All day she gives me nasty death glares, silent treatments, and talks to me in a harsh tone. I've been working very hard at home to bring up my grades but nothing pleases her. She gets mad when I'm silent but when I say anything she gets even more mad and punishes me. I try to show I'm sorry but she ignores me. I saw that she posted on Facebook that she's at the end of her rope with me. I'm depressed and scared that she doesn't want me either. I don't know what to do. I feel worthless and I'm slowly giving up on myself.

will he regain most of the use of his mucas membranes through rehabilitive therapy?

I was supposed to go to a concert at the O2 Arena in London (which has a capacity of 20,000 people) with my two best friends today, but my mum won't let me go because of something that happened to her back in November. She went to the same venue for a concert with one of her friends. When it finished, as she was going down the stairs, someone deliberately pushed her, she fell down the stairs and she sprained her ankle. Because of that reason, I can't go anymore. She thinks it's gonna happen to me too. I said to her that she's overreacting and she needs to take a chill pill, but she thinks this is the right way to react. Is this a stupid reason to ban me from going to a concert?

My family just flew down to Southern California for a wedding, it was me (girl 19) my older sister (22) my mom and my dad. We got to our hotel about 20 minutes before we had to leave so we were trying to get ready fast... My dad went into the bathroom to change and get ready so me and my mom stripped down and got dressed into wedding clothes. However my older sister waited and wouldn't get changed. Then when my dad came out of the bathroom she went in to change and we had to wait and we were late! Would you have changed in front of your sister and mother?

I have submitted this question January 14, 2012 but it was before I joined Yahoo Answers. My 42 yr. old son has recently yelled at me, has hurt me so many times. I was a stay at home mom to my two boys. My younger son is a great father and husband. His group of friends are friends that don't curse and neither does he. My older son's friends are treated with great respect as he wants to make a good impression on them. My son is a me person. HIs father also was. Both my boys seen their father use verbal and physical abuse on me. Their father was killed by a drunk driver. It is sad that I never felt free until he died. I thank god that I found a wonderful man and we have been married almost 20 years. We are Eucharistic Ministers at our church and a caregiver for one of our neighbors. My son does drink beer, only the expensive kind and cigars as well. He is a " Me" person. He has tried to start 3 business, white water rafting, Texas Hold em gambling, breakfast bars, 3 Harley's, Motorcycle clubs, Leather crafting, 3 college enrollments, Masonic Lodge, never attends a meeting now. Now he is in college studding Bio-Med. He has a great job at $80,000 now but he probably will not save much. He doesn't do drugs and never has and I don't think he has a drinking problem. He has given up the motorcycle club due to his employment now. He's a great father but he raises his voice often. His wife is patient and I don't think he is mean to her. One day he is high spirits and other times it's like his fuse goes off. I suffer depression and for 15 years I have been on medication. I have had 3 nervous breakdowns, 2 while I was married 25 years to my first husband. I have been diagnosed with mild bipolar. I think my son is also bipolar and needs anger control. I love him very much but I have to make a decision and take care of my emotional health. I have cried for 3 days, loss of appetite, loss of sleep, unable to think of anything to take my mind off this situation. He yells at me on the phone telling me I need professional help. I think it is time that I tell him I did seek professional help because my Dad verbally abused me and my siblings. My son's dad also verbally and physically abused me and now my son is verbally abusing me. When my son was 18 after his father was killed, he told me he hated me and he wished that it would have been me instead of his father. He lost a child and became angry with God. I am 70 yrs. old and I pray that he will one day find himself and his problems belong to him and stop blaming his mother. I worked as a psychiatric nurse and I was able to counsel young adults but they knew me as a nurse and not a mother. I have been reading some answers on this web site and now I must follow through. I will not tolerate his behavior, language, disrespect and anger. He hasn't called to apologize yet but when he does, I will accept his apology and thank him for calling and tell him that I will love him forever but I will tell him his behavior is unacceptable and that I will not tolerate it ever again. It may be the best thing that this passive mom can do for her son. I have tried and cried but nothing has helped. He needs professional help but he needs to know that he needs help. I ask for your prayers and opinions. I am sure that I am only one mother out of thousands who are hurting in this situation of mine and some are hurting worse. Jo Ann

My son is 10 almost 11 and when ever he get's yelled at or he get in trouble i'm always the worst mom ever and he hates me. I know alot of kids might say this to there parent but he has been doing this for years. What i want to know is what should i do, he is very rude and very disrespect to me and there dad, he is pretty good at being respectful to others its just us he his like this.What should i do.

I appologize for the long story/question but I'd love some insight. Today my son told me he wants to see his father more and wants to call him because he feels that maybe if he calls and I take him there his father will be in his life more. He says he wants to spend "maybe a week with him every two weeks", this comes out of no where this morning as I'm headed off to work. My son is 10, he is ADHD and is undergoing further testing to figure out if he has deeper problems than just that. He makes excellent grades, his behavoir is at times violent and very "on and off". His father and I have been divorced for over 6 years. His father was very voilent with me, and is mentally unstable. My son was witness to much of this and remembers many terrible things that we endured at the hands of his father. Currently his father lives at the end of our neighborhood (15 minute walk), and does not see his son. He calls only on Thanksgiving and Christmas, though this year he didn't. His father is allowed to see his son through the Safe Program but has never registered to do so. At one point during our court process he even offered to sign his rights away but later recanted during mediation. He pays zero child support and has never paid for my son's health insurance which is considerable given his disabilities. When he did follow his visitiation schedule my son was left with his girlfriend or left alone while he slept as my son tells me. He's currently having a baby boy with his girlfriend who is a great person, but has also been abused by his father to which a few times my son was present and saw him hit her. Since 2010 my son has not had contact or visitiation with his father. Meanwhile through all of this, my fiance and I have done everything for our son and now feel like we failed somehow. My fiance has been in my sons life for 4 years and wants to adopt him, we have a baby girl on the way and want very much for us to be one big family but my son who calls my fiance his "Dad" to the school, drs, and our friends, says he no longer wants this. Through all the karate classes, boy scout meetings, finding him friends, and of ocurse all the missed work in dr appointments and parent teacher conferences, we feel like our efforts are going unappreciated. We are both in tears wondering where we went wrong with this boy we give everything to. Maybe we are taking this too hard, or maybe our "house rules" are too much for him and he needs to "slum it" for a while to appreciate what he has? Whatever the case is, I'm having a hard time giving into him when I feel like we do more than enough to keep him happy and this need he has to see a man who does not want him should be squashed. Has anyone else gone through this and if so what did you do? Sometimes the best help is knowing you are not alone and others have overcome things like this.

I have been a single mum for 11 years and the very proud mother of a 19 and just turned 16 year old son. Two weeks ago I received notice that I had to move out of our rental home. The next day I was also made redundant so made the decision that our city was no longer financially viable so our best option was to start over and move town. I secured a good job fairly quickly and a new home. The problems started when I suggested to my 16 year old that he should go spend a few days down south with his dad before we shifted. I have always been very proactive in maintaining the rship between my son and his dad which at times has frustrated me to no end. His father has largely been completely inactive and ineffective. He basically has chosen to concentrate more on mentally and emotionally abusing me for years rather than spend decent time with his child. The day before my son was due to return from this 5 day visit with his dad he text me and told me he was refusing to come back and since then there has been a barrage of abuse from both my son and his father. His reasons for staying in his fathers town was that he didnt want to be the new kid at the new school and didnt want to live with me anymore...that he hated me. I have always had a very close relationship with both of my sons so this decision has devastated me. I am at a loss to understand it but feel it has been orchestrated by his father as a last ditch attempt to try and control me and get me back to our original home town where we lived whilst married. My son is really not communicating with me at all, he wont reply to texts and I spend most of the days crying. The loss feels huge and unable to be conquered. My son said if i put my kids first then to leave him with his father. I explained that indeed if he really wanted to stay with his dad then his happiness would come first and he could stay although I disagreed with his decision. My eldest son too is hurting at his brothers apparent disloyalty. We have trouble understanding how he want to be around such an deadbeat dad who has done nothing for his son. For example, the best his father managed last year was 5 nights with his son. His father has since enrolled him in a new school which I have rung and put in the loop and also asked for the guidance counsellor to seek my son out and make sure he is ok. I just dont know what to do now especially given he seems to not want to communicate with me. I text him every day briefly just saying I love him very much and keep things brief, usually about his dog or brother. I just wish he was home with us. The pain is terrible :( His happiness is paramount to me hence why I figured that is was best long term to let him go in the hope he will come to his senses and come home to me, his brother and dog.

My son Elias is turning 15 in January, and he's been acting suspicious with his laptop recently. Whenever I use it he always has to hover around me to see what I'm doing and acts oddly nervous. He has folders that are password-protected with something called "winrar" (not really a computer guy). So when I came home from work one day he had still not arrived from school, so I decided to search up an address in mapquest for a job I have to do and noticed a lot of sketchy looking search suggestions and bookmarks. I know I might be in the wrong for snooping but I am naturally concerned as a father for him. And so I went on his history that wasn't erased and what I found was considerably disturbing. It was sort of an art site but with animals, except the animals looked like people? I actually did a bit of research upon it and found the term was, "anthro" or "furry"? And it wasn't just art, I found numerous images of the animals engaged in various sexual activities, very disturbing, pornographic, and quite unsuitable for a 15 year old to be watching. I'm really not sure whether or not I should consider some of this porn, it was so odd. I fear for my son's psychological health. I have not yet mentioned anything to my wife or son. This is really not a joke. How can I confront my son about this?

What do I call my grandfather's brother's son's wife? What do I call my grandfather's brother's son's wife? Am I correct? My grandfather's brother is my great-uncle. My grandfather's brother's son is my first cousin once removed. My grandfather's brother's son's daughter (my grandfather's brother's granddaughter) is my second cousin. Now, what do I call my grandfather's brother's son's wife? She is my grandfather's brother's granddaughter's mother. Same generation as my parents. What is her relation to me? Aunt?

All my life, I have taken care of him, when his father wasn't available. I worked hard and made sure he had what he needed and some things he wanted. But know that he is a 28 yr old adult, he is constantly being a smart ash...and blows up at me. I don't understand why he acts this way?

In case that question is confusing... there's my great uncle and aunt (my grandpa's brother and his wife) who have a son who now has a son. What would the new son be to me? Haha, thanks!

I have 3 children, 2 daughters and a son. My daughters are already married with kids and my son is 29 and he's the one who is getting married. Back in 2012 he started dating this girl and form the beginning I didn't like her, we had some fights over it. I'm a very conservative and religious person and I raised my kids kind of the same way, and when my son started seeing this girl I saw her as a threat to my son and his values and morals. She is a very liberal non religious woman, with different family values and morals, so we basically never got along. A day my son kicked me out of his house over something I said about her, it was in 2013 and since then I have not talked to him nor seen him.. My daughters knew about the wedding and they are going but he asked them not to tell me anything. I just found out today at the grocery store by a lady I know, she asked me where my son is going for his honey moon and I was like what honey moon and this is how I found out, then I asked my older daughter and she confirmed it and also told me that my son's soon to be wife is 6 months pregnant. I can't believe he did this to me. I'm his mother, I brought him into this world, gave him a good life, paid his education and always made sure he was all right and I was always there for him. This really hurts a lot,,

I'm the third oldest of 5 siblings. We're kinda a dysfunctional family meaning we've been through a lot as a family. We're doing well now. When my oldest brother got into deep trouble, (he still has his own issues, attitude problem, baby mama drama, etc.) we all struggled with it and we moved a lot, however now years later I don't have a relationship with my older brothers (we all still live together as a family) but that's it. I feel like everyone is super different and individual in their own way and together, well it just doesn't mix well. None of us have a simple conversation, just hey whats for dinner or something random. Us 5 still fight like siblings though, but if we didn't live together, they would feel like strangers to me. I hate this. I hate how we all live together and supposed to be a family but instead we all literally feel oblivious to one another. We were close when we were kids but now its just everyone does their own thing. How can I change this??

I have known my now brother in law for 13 years before my sister dated and married the ding dong. But it was only in passing. But seemed to be there a LOT. I was an NFL Cheerleader he was at all the home games and he is not even a fan of that team. It wasn't even in the same state. I got a job with a boy band because they wanted more men at the shows. He was at every single concert. Skipping ahead to now. Last night he told my sister and I that the only reason he married my sister was to get closer to me. That he never loved her. It has always been me. No matter what his heart belongs to me he thinks of me when they have sex which according to my sister has significantly dropped off over the years. He is always texting me when he is always away namely away with my sister. If I date anyone he makes sure he does things so we break up. Then he can swoop in and be my hero. And cry on his shoulder and make me smile again. HELP how do I break this guys heart. Last time I was rough with him and told him I wanted him out of my life he heart attack. It would never have worked out for two reasons 1 he has a daughter 4 years and three months older then me. 2 I am 40 and he is 57 it would be just wrong. And my sis is 46 up until last night thought she had a perfect marriage. Strangely enough she doesn't blame me. Which is worrying me because she blames me for everything.

My little sister kicked me in my face for smacking the back of her head, it cut the inside of my mouth and I started pouring. She kicked me again in my face & told me I need to man up. I really don't like her and she pisses me off, what should I do.

I m 19 years old and my boyfriend and I have been together for 4 years. I moved in with him, his grandparents, and sister 1 year ago and he got temporary custody over his 5 year old sister when he was 18. Ever since he got custody I have been taking care of his little sister whenever I m not at work. But the problem is that his grandma likes to complain about any little thing about me to my boyfriend. She complains about what I put on her for school and several other things. Yesterday she complained to him because she said I should of taken her to school instead of the grandpa when I couldn t because I had to go to work. In my opinion they should be thanking me for everything I do for my bf s little sister because I dont have to be taking responsibility of her when she s not even my child. I m young right now and the last thing I want to do is havr this responsibility on my shoulders. She just expects me to do everything her way... and it s really stressfull

I started taking my daughter to therapy for diagnosed ocd and a possible eating disorder. When the therapist asks questions, she will always answer with blame. She accuses me of being a bad mom because I let her "freeze to death" when our furnace was broke for one day, that I leave her "all alone in the house" to scrape off the car (she's 11), and that I am horrible for making her eat food she hates. The sessions always come back to why I am negligent, yet her dad won't even bother to come. She has so many stories, I don't even want to take her anymore. Thoughts?

will he regain most of the use of his mucas membranes through rehabilitive therapy?

I hate my parents.it is not that I am in teenage years but I am in my mid twenties. My parents have raised them in very strict environment where I had to do nothing else but study. Every extracurricular thing was off limits. After school ,I had to study with a tutor and after that if I had time,I could play cricket but not every day. Now they had nicknamed me as a person who is lazy and if I used to do anything wrong,they used to call me with that name. My only life was to study,eat and sleep. I couldn t bring any of my friends at home neither were they allowed to call me. I am on a well established career right now but this hatred comes to my mind when I find that how many things I couldn t learn Cz of my parents. At the end I want to ask you that is it okay to hate my parents?

I delete my text constantly but could im under his plan so could he ask verizon to send him a copy if my text conversation history?

So my mom is amazing tbh but there's somthein about her that will drive me ****** crazy . Now I've always worn her choice of clothes but now I'm a freshman at the university and I wanna start wearing what I love . she has to go with me shopping I told her I wanna go with my friends alone this time cuz mom I'm 19 now you can let me shop alone . But she was like Hell no you can't go shopping alone . If she keeps controlling my choice of clothes Imma go kill myself . it's so annoying not just because of the type of clothes she makes me wear but she won't let me grow the **** up . only a few places I'm aloud to go to cuz She's afraid imma get kiddnaped cuz imma gurl . There's alot of things as well but this is so long lol. what Am I supposed to do ? Make her mad and live my life the way I want to . Or just let her boss me forever .

Tonight I had to stay up late to study because I have a test tomorrow. I was in my parent's room and my mom was helping me run through some flash cards. At some point my parents noticed that my brother wasn't home anymore and that his window was left open. They closed his window and locked all the doors. My brother doesn't have a key so he won't be able to get in. For a while I've been getting lecured on how dangerous it is to sneak out like my brother and how, if I ever do it, I'll get locked out like my brother is going tonight. My parents even took my phone so I can't text to warn him what's going on. (I wasn't planning to). I was just studying. Not sure why I'm getting lectured. My brother just got home and my parents seriously aren't letting him in the house. I thought they weren't seriously going to leave him out there. It just rained. It's all wet everywhere.

My father grew up in a very horrible and poor environment. His father passed away many years ago, he was a criminal, and would sexually and verbally abuse all his children. After that, my father decided to come to the U.S for a better life there he suffered from living in the streets, hunger working at grocery stores, angry man.He worked really hard , but still doesn't have the best job. All my siblings have poor eating habits, obese, no education. None of my cousins get inspired from him. No one looks up to him. No one takes advice from him because they make fun of his job, and his loser kids. I feel bad because can't imagine to go through all that to be at a simple life now. Have you met someone like this? They go through so much in life that in the end it seems like not worth it?

I talked with my brother to resolve some issues which was fine untill he bought up that he is above me and I am below him, I understand respect your elder but he is my ******* brother, I was so insulted when he said that. I understand that he has more knowledge than me in life but what he said to me basicly felt like you are and will always be less than me. I don t know if I m being a little ***** who can t swallow my own pride or if he is just an arrogant grown *** man. I don t think bringing this on the internet is the best option but I want someone who is my mom or brother to look at my situation and give me advice.

I am a 20 year old guy who lives with my single mom(via anonomous sperm donor) and my 2 aunts, who all raised me together. I am 6'2 weighing 200 pounds. But my aunts are 6'5 weighing around 250 pounds and my mom is 6'8 weighing around 300 pounds. Its humiliating to be smaller than my mom and aunts and im embarrassed to go out seen with them. We are going on a family cruise, and they already bought my ticket. I dont want to go cuz its humiliating being smaller than 3 middle aged women. My mom says im being ridiculous and said "you are a big guy urself, ur a giant among your friends and peers. You are the man of the family, and are protecting 3 people bigger than you."

AS IM NOT so i said no i am not, i only come here for my aunt, 2nd wife.. and so my uncle has 2 daughters. people ask me who am i of them so i say i only live here, and then tonight someone told him all the stuff that he married 2nd time, aunt and my mother together bought house, and truth that he has little job and spends on drinks. so after all that, he went to police and registered complain, and he slapped, punched and kicked my aunt. i really want to **** him up but then i realize that my aunt told me so i left her have fun getting hit by his drunk husband " go away you are nothing of me anymore" so i want to know, did i do right?

My parents literally guard me like a secret diamond. I love them, but I'm stuck in the house all the time, bored to death. All my friends are so excited about the sleepovers they will have on fridays, or the times at their friend' houses on saturdays, or anything. I can't do that. I'm not allowed over to my friend's houses. No matter if I know their parents, they have met their parents, I text them every 2 seconds, ANYTHING. If I try to reason they brush me off and don't pay attention. Help!!!!!

I work 25hrs a week right now but I use to be able to work just fine with no issues. Now my body won't let me work two jobs or work lots of hours my body gets dizzy and I feel like I'm gonna faint it's hard to explain this feeling. I'm just unstable I feel like I'll fall and sometimes my body does slightly move to the side when walking and it messes me up. I was told I have a very bad balance. My doctor has no idea what it is. I live at my moms and she lives in housing which I can't mess up with more hours so I'm on restriction. And there are times when my body just stops and won't let me work for a few days which is bad for my income. After all my bills I got close to $600. I have a bad memory too I'm just tired of this I wanna work I really enjoy it.

My grandmother had falling in her house and cause bleeding on her brain.And pretty much she was out of it she had no clue who you wear she saw things that weren't there and didn't want to leave. Ok after this they said she need 24 hour care and need to be put in a nursing home now she is doing better. My point is she has 3 kids 2 son but 1 son is not very well and 1 daughter. here is the thing the one son never come around ever or barely see her now he was at the hospital 2 times and 2 times at the nursing home to visited.Her other son has been there when he can when he is feeling good. Her daughter that my mom we have been at that hospital every day and the nursing home every day and my mom even has a sick husband but where there. Then we had this meeting about they don't offer 24 hour care like she would need so they said some one would have to be the other times. and her son said he works and his wife can't do it but any ways he doesn't work his son does so there we go it was put on us then the lady go can you stay over night. First off i don't stay the night any where but i didn't say that but i have depression and anxiety and i can't be left alone so my mom would have to stay any ways. But my grandmother wants out of the nursing home and we want her home she wants back in her own place. But i don't understand why is it always put on us we do everything for her we took her to the mall,grocery shopping,get her hair done,dr appt. now we might have to move in with her.

My mom and wife don't get along at all. They always get into fights and each one expects me to back her up. I love them both very much, but I don't know what to do. I think it's my duty as a man to support my wife, but my mom will always be my mom, no matter what. What should I do?
