I only do it 3 times a week.

My 3 year old daughter is constantly chewing on her favorite blanket (Pink) that goes everywhere with her. We have asked her not too, and have told her it was yucky however when she takes it from her mouth it ends up back in five minutes afterwards. She has all her teeth, and I am afraid that this chewing will destroy them. Is there any reason she is still chewing? Or anyway to stop the chewing?

I m 14 he s 11, we were making peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches. My brother has a very strong phobia of spit and he doesn t like when people reach over his food. I just reached for the forks and I guess i reached over his plate. He got mad and got in my face, of course I got in his face too and yelled get out of my face. He thought i spit on his sandwich he grabbed my arm and i swung arm cause he grabbed it. I had a jelly container in my hand and it hit him on the head lightly when I moved my arm. He said that he will tell my dad that i hit him on the head with glass. He will lie to my dad then we will both be punished. What can I do?

My daughter will be 2 this December (Dec. 8). It's not a big deal now - since she is so little - but I've already have had family tell me that I should combine Thanksgiving and her family birthday party again this year (we did it last year at age 1). We host Thanksgiving at our house every year. I'm ok with it for another year or 2. But how do you handle December birthdays when the kids get older? And she is our youngest - we have 3 others. So she'll notice as she gets older. We have two with summer birthdays (ages 2 and 6) and one with a February birthday (age 8). They all get individual parties. Thank you.

FAMILY, YOU WANT ALL KIDS TO BE TREATED like family right. yours or not

She graduates college Friday and our family was going down to see her walk the stage and my brother over heard her and our parents talking on the phone and she said "well why do they have to come?" My parents always gossiping to her on the phone about me and she only talks to me when she wants to know if others are gossiping about her! She always gets in my business and know my personal life and she asks me A MILLION Questions!!!! Ugh she always being too nosey! But if I ask her some questions she'll tell me "don't worry about it! Its none of your business!" But if I say the same thing to her she says "why you have an attitude? Or she'll ask "why you getting defensive?" And she's always wants to take me to my friends house just so she can be nosey and see what kind of friends I have! And when she picks me up she's going to ask more and more questions! I dont get it...

So I just graduated with a masters degree a few days back, and as a note of thanks hugged my brother who is 3 years younger than me. Then, people looked at us weirdly. Did I do something out of place ?

I'm a 17 year old male. My parents always make me go to stupid religious parties. It's getting really annoying. It's like once a month. They are very jewish. I don't believe in god. They know that. Whenever there is a bar mitzvah (boy turns 13) they make such a big deal. I really don't like parties. You have to dress all fancy (which is annoying and uncomfortable) then you take pictures for like an hour. And then they play really loud music and everyone just dances. I hate it soon much. Theres one tonight for a boy thats not even my cousin, and then theres one in july. I live in miami and my parents are going to make me fly with them to is real for another cousins party. And then my little brother is turning 13 soon. I'm just so annoyed. I told them I don't like going but they don't care. What do you think i should do? I'm not 18 yet. I can't wait until I am though. What do you think is the best thing to do? Thanks guys. I'll just suck it up.

My mother's birthday was a week ago. She has cancer and her time is limited, so us siblings decided to make the most of our time left with her. That means making an effort to go over her house more, spend holidays with her, etc. But, all of that is ruined if we don't let my brother, Gareth, coordinate everything. He has to be in charge of what food is there, what music, what PEOPLE. He excluded my mothers ex-husband because he said the title "ex" is too depressing, and he wants her to have a nice time. So, to the point, we held my mother's birthday festivities at my home. I didn't want to make a big deal of it on her birthday so I let Gareth be in charge, to which my sister agreed was the grown up thing to do. But, he asked me when the clown was showing up and I was clueless. A clown?! I was supposed to book a clown for a 67 year old woman? He yelled at me saying that he told me to book a clown two weeks prior, I remember NOTHING of the sort. I told him he was stupid for thinking a clown was appropriate for her, and he flipped out and destroyed my lawn. He broke the plants, the gnomes, and the hammock. Over $200 of damage. He got in his car and drove off. I've been calling/texting but he won't answer me. What can I legally do to make him cover the cost? My mom begs me not to report him, but I certainly am not paying for this.

Served my child's other parent with child custody and child support modification and they just responded 2 days prior to the court hearing. They provided all forms EXCEPT for the FL155 which is the financial statement. They took the packet apart and removed that document, I'm almost certain. They stapled once again and served me back. WITHOUT the financial statement. I went down to the courthouse and asked if this was correct and the woman was about to look into it when another employee walked to her window and said they can serve whatever they want to serve. Which I do not think is very accurate. If this paperwork is incorrect where do I go from here?

..should I??

I do not know why but my girlfriend's parents keep buying me things. The father I know likes me but her mom doesn't trust me yet her mom keeps bringing me on these trips with them. I am 18 and I lived in poverty most of my life but they do not know about my drug addict parents. I do not know what is up and now her mom wants to buy me a phone the upcoming weekend not only that but adding me to their plan and playing for my bill as well.

So me and my friend just got his license and he wants to celebrate by going to a restaurant with me. The thing is his mom probably won't let us go. The town is about a half an hour away. What can we say for her to let us go?

Like the title says, I'm coming home from college and my parents are letting me stay with them. They want me to type up a proposal for the summer so that we can refer to it if I start to do things they don't like or if they do things I don't like. (A mutual respect kind of thing.) They want me to be a young adult and go have fun with friends (I'm 19), but they also want me to be respectful of what they want from me since I'm living there. The thing is, I have to write it up and I'm not sure what to suggest. I'll be starting a job 5 days a week, 8 hours a day in June but want a break between school and work. They said it sounds reasonable but want to know what I'm going to do with my time. I mentioned I could wake up early (8am) everyday since they get irritated when I sleep in and am unproductive. So the summary for ALL of that (a mouth full, I know!) is this: They Want: Cleanliness, respect for my brother, and my household contribution. I Want: A break for a few weeks between school and work, and to sleep over my boyfriend's when I want. I mentioned paying my brother to do the dishes, and mowing the lawn once a week, but they want more details, and rules regarding when I'm out and about with friends. Any ideas? Thanks!

I noticed that the people who hate others are hurt or unhappy people. My aunt's husband was cheating on her, and she was over 30 years old when she married him. She doesn't have self confidence I can tell. She feels she isn't beautiful or thin enough because her husband puts her down. She hates me, mom, dad even though we are nice to her. Also, my other aunt seems like that too. Her husband puts her down and they argue a lot. She is insecure because she is deemed as ugly. She hates my other aunts and me my mom, even though we were super nice to her. These two people lashed out at us. They slandered us and my aunt whose husband was cheating on her said to my mom that my dad was cheating too

My family is ultra coservative muslim. Especially my father. I left the old country 6 years ago. When i got here, i was alone with no friends or nothing. In college, i met that wonderful girl. She helped me through it all. She became my girlfriend. Anyway, things got serious between us. Now, she's pregnant. If my family know about this, they'll eat me alive. After all, i did what any muslim should never do. Also, that kid would be an outcast. They'll cosider him a bastard and never treat him with respect.

I'm an adult, and i have made and make mistakes. But regardless of that, i try and do what i can and be helpful. I have had bad experiences on jobs, some of it i believe have to do with dysfunctional family. Dad is negative of me, not concern. No matter what i do it seems i am blamed. At a point he would talk to me some. But he rarely speak to me and seems ashamed of me. If i tell dad how i feel he doesn't want to talk. Doesn't apologize, and neglects me and seems he hates me.

I just took a big AP exam and after that, most of the kids got rides home. I'm not doing anything in any of my classes the rest of the day, but my mom still won't pick me up. I don't have any food or cash with me, so I'm very hungry since I haven't eaten since 6:30 this morning (Now it's about 1pm). She told me I have a lot of absences and I shouldn't miss this day even though me showing up to my other classes would not count towards any attendance thing. I've been excused for the day. I'm really hungry and I worked my butt off for this exam and now it's done and my mother isn't letting me go home. What should I do? Should I just walk 6 miles home to prove a point or something?

My guy friend who I like and I know he likes me. Anyways I have known him for a good lot of years, we used to text each other, laugh, basically go everywhere. Now I have realized things have just been different. From all that stuff we used to do, till now he has been getting shyer, well he was a shy guy but that didn't seem to make a difference then till know. He doesn't sit near me, he looks at me then quickly looks away, when I say something to him his cheeks are flustered or when i just look at him they are already and he stands back from me.I know that he has told his friends. I am just giving him space, but he always looks back at me. He always smiles around me. I haven't done anything to him. I'm thinking to myself he's either met someone else, cause he's never off his phone but then again he always did that when everything was normal. But again, why would he do all these signs and it doesn't seem like it, or he's in love with me and he cant ask me out? If that is the case then what can I do to make him okay around me again. Its just awkward and he getting so shy than ever before.

Ok so I'm a senior in high school and have been more busy this year than usual. It came to my attention a little bit ago that I forgot to write thank you notes for all of my family gifts. I usually always write thank you notes on time. My birthday was in November and I feel really bad. Would it be worse to bring up the fact that I'm so late on getting back to everyone or should I just do it so I don't feel guilty anymore. I personally think I should but wanted to hear everyone else's thoughts?

My mom s boyfriend the other kids dad my step dad constantly sending emails saying perverted things. This is been going on for 10 years somehow he s seen pictures of me and constantly brings it up I want to help my mom but I don t know how. He is threatened to kill her in front of the kids. They ve threatened to kill him if he hurts her. I don t understand why she won t leave and I don t know how to make her. I ve told him to leave me alone many times but if I go to the police he will hurt my mom. I feel just as stuck as she is I don t want to care that way I can turn him in but if he does something I feel like it s my fault.

i have always had problems with her, since the beginning. she has hit me, she yells at me, she belittles me, she is uneducated, she bounces from man to man, she doesnt pay for anything. when i was 16 i lived with my grandmother, and so did she. i finally had enough and yelled back at her and told her she is the most horrible human being i have ever had the displeasure of being acquainted with. she told me that my mother doesnt love me, that she just wanted to have fun, and that nobody could ever love me. that is why i yelled at her for the first and last time. she raised her hand like she was going to hit me and i basically dared her to do it, but she didnt. so i had to leave. it made me so mad that my mother wasnt angry with her, like you dont say those things to a child. i am now 19, no longer a child, and only see her on occasion at family events. she is literally satan. she abuses her children, she hates her children, my mother raised her adult children... i've had to report her to cps on two different occasions... i want her gone, everyone does. but nobody tells her whats what, and i have no idea why not. im not saying i want her dead or anything, though. i promise im a good person. what can i do? she's the worst, literally satan.

I'm a 12 year old girl and when I was 4 my brother wasn't home i went to look for my doll in his bedroom i was looking in his drawers and then in 1 of his drawers he had magazines, the magazines had pictures of naked models stripping, I CAN'T BELIEVE I SAW THAT WHE I WS 4, THAT SCARED THE SH*T OUT OF ME!!! I RAN OUT OF HIS ROOM! When I was 4 he was 19

My grandparents have 6 kids but my 2nd oldest aunt has always been their favorite. She manipulates them all the time and guilts them into giving her things. She s almost 50 yrs old, yet she goes to their house everyday so they can feed her and constantly are giving her money because, according to her, she doesn t have enough even though she has a job, and makes frequent trips to Mexico. This past Mother s day, my dad wanted to get the whole family together to celebrate all the moms, but especially his own and of course, my mom. Everyone agreed a week before the date, but 3 days later, my grandpa called my dad to say that they weren t going because they were moving into their new house that same day (which they weren t planning to move into until June!) Because my cousin (my aunt s daughter) and her boyfriend could only help that day (because NOTHING would get done if they aren t there. Note the sarcasm). I was infuriated mostly because my dad put so much effort into preparing this celebration, and then his own parents blow him off to comply to their darling daughter. It s gotten to the point that my aunt s own two kids take food from my grandparents fridge just because they want it. Mind you, both of my grandparents are retired and they don t exactly have the money to throw around. How do I get my grandparents, who I adore, to realize that what my aunt is doing is wrong and they have to put their foot down? Or talk to my aunt and get her to stop taking advantage of them?

i don't know where it started , but my problem is i feel NOTHING about my father , like i don't like him , i don't hate him i just really dont care about him for example if he goesaway for 1 month i wouldn't miss him even a bit , but i don't really hate the guy i want to know is this normal ? how do you guys feel about your father ? do you like hanging out with him or miss him if he goes for a trip or something ? like one time he went to a work trip for a week or something , and i even forgot he was on a work trip , i just forgot about him also i'm 21 years old and at nights when im forced to eat with the "family" i have the worst time , like i have nothing to talk about him , and he is religious and raised us the same way , so i can't even watch tv with him without feeling awkward since even stuff that are barely sexy like a simple music video will make that moment so awkward i just can't help it , the only channel i can watch with him is news ...

Hi...My husband's family live in various states...I have one sister in law (my husband's sister) that lives in the same town as I do..I've been married for over 20 years, and I have done my best to be there in every situation for my in laws...whatever they need, I am there for them...I do it mostly because I respect my husband so much...but I do like them, too....here's my dilemma....I feel badly because I have always been a support for them..helped with their kids, their sickly mom, involved in their kids activities, parties, etc. I like to do these things, but what makes me sad, especially from my sister in law, is that she never does ANYTHING to show my son that she cares...he is 15 years old, and has severe autism. He speaks at less than a 2 year old level...and has many autistic behaviors..this past week, he was part of a school play in his special school...it took 3 months to teach him to repeat ONE line of 4 words. Not easy for him at all..but very special...my sis in law was supposed to come...she didn't show up, and texted me and lied that she had to pick her mom up from the mall (who was there with her other siblings)..I found out later that she stayed at the mall, and did not bring her mom home at the time she told me...My son's play was at 12:00...she was at the mall until 2:00...so, she lied, and she skipped the play. I have not spoken to her since...I think she knows I am upset, but she has not tried to discuss it. I am tired of her ignoring my child.

She hates everyone she meets, she has low self esteem, and she is STINGY! She puts money before children. She homeschools them, feeds them little, doesn't buy them toys, no BD parties, clothes, and electricity and TV because she want to be rich. She wants money. I liked her and wished her well (even though she is from Saudi Arabia and Im an American), and never harmed/insulted her in any way. But she insulted me and she tried to physically and mentally harm me. I think that maybe my uncle is putting her down at home, because they are not happy within their marriage. My aunt seems mad about something else. It is not just her marriage or her looks ( she isn't a supermodel), maybe it stems from her childhood?

I have beeen depressed and anxious all my life. I dont enjoy living anymore. My parents get angry at me for any least thing. I work everyday as a waiter and try to make my life optimistic but living with my parents is hell. My mother is an alcoholic and my parents fight everyday. I get yelled on alot for simple things and i have been verbally abused by my step father when i was young. I love my parents very much though. Right now we are going through some tough financial times. I dont enjoy living anymore. I have some money saved up and i have life insurance. Should i just tell my parents how i feel and give them my money to bury me and the rest they can keep? I am 21 and a male. Living with my parents i have no freedom what so ever. My mom always tells me how she has to support the entire family and no one cares. I always help out in the house. I feel my parents and sibling will do better without me. And the noney that they will get will help them to get back on their feet. Is this a good idea? Im in therapy and seeing a psychiatrist at the moment. Please dont judge me. Thanks.

I know that my parents care for me deeply, and I care for them deeply too, but I prefer to keep the word "love" out of it. feel like it is REALLY intimate and I think it should be used with your significant other. I also feel like the word "sorry" is really intimate, so I hate apologizing. Especially to my parents. The sentence "I'm so sorry, I love you." would be my worst nightmare. I get the feeling of watching a sex scene in a movie with them. Does anyone else feel like this? Before you say it, yes I know I am lucky to have parents. My condolences if yours are dead.

I hate my sister very much because she doesn't respect my mother, and she emotionally(calls me a demon and tells my mother that I am mad and on drugs, even though she's been on drugs throughout high school and I have not) and sometimes physically (nothing too bad, just hits me or kicks me sometimes). She also tricked me into drinking alcohol a few times. I feel like I can't move forward in my life because my mother is too busy trying to provide for this 30 year old that she doesn't even have time to listen to me, which is ironic, because my sister doesn't even respect her. My sister doesn't work. She doesn't even play video games all day, like some slackers, she just merely sleeps and causes trouble. My mother doesn't want to kick her out or put her on her place. So now I am suffering. She gives my mother such a hard time too, and it's hard to watch. This description is very small. So take this and times it by at least 7 and then you will know how all of this makes me feel. And I also didn't include all the bad things that she does, but it is very overwhelming and the more I tell my mother about it, the more she does nothing about it, or tries to blame me for the situation.

It all started about three years ago-- My then girlfriend asked me to take her little sister's virginity because her sister thought I was extremely cute. The only stipulations was my girlfriend forbidding us to kiss and she had to be there to make sure we didn't kiss and keep some level of disconnect emotionally. Well, things didn't go as planned. I thought her sister was far more beautiful the first time I laid eyes on her, and after about an hour of us going at it, the second my girlfriend left the room to get a snack out the fridge, we were at each others lips competing to suck the oxygen from one anothers lungs. Since then, we've been having sex and going on dates every chance we get behind my Fiancee's back. It's not out of malice or anything like that tho. There's just... a powerful emotional connection there that I can't find the words for. Every time I see her, we stare into each others eyes and it's like my breathing slows to the point where I can hear my heart beat and I want her more than anything else. But that's not all. I'm the father of her sisters 2 year old daughter. We didn't tell my fiancee, because we both love her enough not to want to give her pain, but at the same time we love each other to the point where there was never any objection in whether her sister was going to be the mother of my children. I thought marrying my fiancee would fix my feelings, but it's going to make things worse. How do I tell her?

Ok so I'm a senior in high school and have been more busy this year than usual. It came to my attention a little bit ago that I forgot to write thank you notes for all of my family gifts. I usually always write thank you notes on time. My birthday was in November and I feel really bad.

I don t have my full license so I cannot drive after nine but I have a boyfriend. Normally when I go to my boyfriends house I stay until 8:45 bc it takes 15 minutes to get home. I never drive after 9 unless I get my mothers permission prior. She also occasionally lets me spend the night at his house because I m a very good kid, gets good grades, trustworthy, etc. however ever since I ve gotten my license she complains I m never home, even though when I am at home I m in my room with the door closed. Anyways I fell asleep at his house and ended up making home 30 minutes after nine. I apologized for being late (for the first time) and explained I had fallen asleep. My mom said I can t see my boyfriend for a few days and definitely can t spend the night this weekend. I don t know how to fix this, please help

I whent to walmart this morning to get one item, the lady infront of me bought 2 entire shopping carts worth of food, and had a 50lb bag of dog food on the bottom l. She paid for the whole lot with a foodstamp card. Now farbeit for me to criticise anyone trying to feed there family by any means possible. But id be damned if i would have a dog and be buying dogfood if i couldnt afford to feed my own family. Much less with handout money from others. Maby im jusy an insensitive jerk.

My mom gets mad at me because I don't want to take a picture with my aunt, but I'm trying to reason out that my aunt is taking a pic with her daughter, and I don't want to ruin their moment. Besides, it's not like they want to take a pic with me anyway. But then my mom gets mad at me and says, "Don't give me a reason! You're always making up reasons!" I'm like, 'Wtf, how can I defend myself if you always think you're right?'

So my mom brings me and my sister late for almost everything and at the worst of times!! I mean for exams/concerts/other important things. The worst thing is I always get the blame from teachers/friends who don t enjoy my lateness, and im sick of it!! I appreciate that she s a good mom in every other aspect, can I please get some tips on how to make her less late??

My aunt and uncle homeschool them because it is cheaper, and they neglect them with food because food costs money. 7 grapes for breakfast. They are always tired, depressed, and non sociable. They sit while slouched, they make fun of me behind my back, and I literally witnessed this. For her daughter's 7 year old birthday, there was no cake, presents, just hummus. Humuus and bread. They are STINGY! And I think there is emotional abuse/ lack of love in their house. I do not see the children smile and hug their parents, saying I love u. That rarely happens. Most children converse with their parents at home in front of us and seem affectionate in my neighborhood. They have smiles on their faces. My cousins don't. The 3 year old girl said ***** ******* ***** in the car, and her parents regulate TV. Cartoons only. Where else would she learn bad words from: her parents. Because parents are not in happy marriage, they argue a LOT. The children are aggressive and insecure. The parents have to do with this. Their mother is mean and cold hearted, and I think she abuses her children at home because she was abused herself. They said we don't care about money, and my mom said YES THEY DO! They also abuse children with lack of medical care and for themselves. My uncle had vertigo, and we rushed to get him from his car. He slept in our bed then we called an ambulance. I asked my mom why didn't they call ambulance, and my mom said because they didn't want to pay money, it is cheaper.

I know here in the US it's a custom to move out when you're 18 but my cousin is 23 at the moment. Her parents are Mexican and us Mexicans we don't go for that, we stay with our families until we get married to move out or if we get a far away job or to go to college to move out. But my cousin is a women, she said she isn't getting married and told her parents she wants to move out to be free, she wants to do what ever she wants. The thing is that shes doing it to not be around her family, she told them she's not happy with them. Her parents are strict but they are really sweet with them. They have always support her to go to college, they let her be free all they asked her was to not get home late. But still she got home late and drunk. My aunt is now devastated cuz she wants to leave to not be around them. She never spent time with her twin sister either. I think it's just not fair to pay them back like that. After all they've done for her...I know she's 23 but just to move out just to not be around them? What do you think?

A little information first, I am 19. I was raised by my grandparents from 7 months old. My grandfather passed away on November 19, 2010 when I was 16 in our home after battling cancer for a few months. Before we were aware of his illness, we were considering moving to his hometown. My grandparents went up there one day while I was unable to come to view the house for this first time. My grandmother recorded a walk-through of the bedrooms so I could get a good look at everything. When they returned, she showed me the video, a grainy 15 second clip of shaky images of the house. Well, long story short, my grandmother did some snooping and heard a rumor about the house having been an old mortuary and funeral home back in the day. My grandfather, having been raised until the age of 18 in this town, had no recollection of this gossip, but pleased my grandmother by agreeing to not buy the creepy old house. Fast forward to today, I get home from work at roughly 9:45 tonight and my grandmother greets me at the door as usual, then says she has the freakiest thing to show me. She pulls out her phone, and there's a text message from 5:45 that her cousin had sent her. Weird thing #1, this cousin is slightly technologically impaired, and probably couldn't tell you how to find the texting option, let alone send one. Anyways, she shows me the text, and it's the video my grandmother had took of the house. During the clip, there's a moment where my grandmother swings her phone around and catches my grandfather coming down a ladder from the attic stairs. His face is shown maybe a second, a second and a half. But it's almost as if he's smiling straight at you for just a moment. Weird thing #2, my grandmother never sent ME a copy of the video, let alone her cousin who was a part of the family we were trying to keep the move a Secret to. Sometime shortly after he died, she ended up having to get a new phone, and unfourtunatly lost all of his voice mails and photos. She never made a copy, never sent a copy, and the phone was completely wiped of memory. Weird thing #3, my grandmotheimmediatelyly calls her and asks why she would send that video to her. The cousin said, "I've been sitting here at my computer this whole time, and my phone hasn't moved from the table across from me." She had another family member help her search through her phone's storage of videos. It wasn't there. They searched all outgoing messages. No record of the message being sent. We logged into my grandmother service account, no records of the text beinreceiveded. Every other incoming and outgoing message, recorded. This video? Not a single trace of it. No information when you try to pull up message details in the texting app. We've tried to think of every logical conclusion as to how this happened. How a video message can be sent from the number of someone who had never seen the video for herself. Who had no evidence of the message on her phone. A video that was lost, that was cried over, forgotten, and shoulultimatelyly, no longer exist. As a skeptic, I've shook my head at my silliness while typing this post. But, can anyone give me a logical explanation for what just happened? Should I believe that this a true paranormal attempt at contact from the dead? Or am I jumping to conclusions? What do you think?

I'm 22 and really want to just leave... My parents are very emotionally straining and its very hard to go through the day without the thought of just packing some things up and leaving but I don't know what I would do after that... I want to get a job as an officer but my family doesn't want me to... I'm literally stressed all the time especially after my mom threw my motorcycle keys into a river. I want to leave asap... Help plz.

My dads dieing.. idk how to live without him god im only 14 idk life without him how do i cope without being with him?

I m just a teenage girl. I wanted tonescape this shitty life. I want a normal life.

I'm 13 and I still get treated the same way as my 9 year old sister. My parents make me sit at the dining room table when I get home from school and do homework, I'm not allowed to go out with friends or even watch TV on school nights, I have to be in bed by 9 o'clock, I get tucked in when it's time to go to bed, and my parents don't let me walk to school even though it is only a few blocks. They drive me. I want to be treated like I'm my age. My parents seem to forget that I'm getting older.

Ok so my nephews will probably come and live with us because they are in foster care and either my mom of my aunt will get them. Most likely my mom will probably get them. I love my nephews but, I really prefer for them to stay in Colorado with my moms sister. She's know them better and she could take care of them so well out there. My neohews are biracial so the schools will be better for them out there than where I live because they really bully the biracial kids bad about here. But anyways, I don't want my mom to stress and raise kids again because my mother is a very sick and depressed woman and I really don't want her to raise anyone else's children anymore. I want her to be happy and have freedom again and not have to raise children again anymore. I'm honestly upset because I feel my moms pain and I know she's stressed about this. She doesn't tells me she is but Ik she is because she is in so much pain and is sick again. I e been crying about her pain so much and I don't want her to raise children anymore. I want her to be free and happy again. And I don't want her to deal, with this kind of responsibility anymore. Can anyone give me some advice on how I can deal with this situation and on how I can deal with my nephews probably coming? I honestly don't know if I can tell her how I feel. I don't want her to get upset about this. My mom and I are finally getting alone time again and we probably won't have it again since they are probably coming. I'm just kinda hurt. :(

My family have never had much money. I have to share a room with my mom, my family doesn't have a car and nobody can drive so we have to walk everywhere, everyone's always complaining about money. My dad left when I was 14 but he didn't have a job so it made no difference. My mom's a cleaner. I live in a pretty rough neighborhood where there are always drunks and bonfires outside my window. It's embarrassing because in school my classmates are like ''my dad's a lawyer, a teacher, a doctor, works in a bank. ect..'' and I'm embarrassed to say what my parents do. I know I sound like brat and I do appreciate my mom but I'm sick of being the poor girl who can't afford anything. How can I get over this shame?

I'm a 14-year old girl and I really dislike my family. I don't want to sound like I am also complaining but I really need help. Mom: All my mom does all day is complain. She cries about housework EVERY single day even though she is a housewife and it is not a very hard job. She spends most of her day on the couch listening to music. She has no friends whatsoever because she is too sensitive and finds the flaws in everyone. She's always talking bad about people such as her twin sister. Today she got upset at me because she told me that I am unhappy a lot but it's partly her fault. She's always being irritating and whenever she plays with the family dog she's always screaming and giggling like a little kid. Sister: My sister has been in a constant attitude with me ever since she entered highschool. She calls me a loser and a b*tch and a bunch of other insults. Today I was doing my makeup in the bathroom we share and she kept trying to barge her way through the door because she wanted to take a shower and I told her to stop it and she just kept screaming at me to hurry up and she also told me that makeup won't fix my ugly face. Dad: He used to point out my flaws when I was younger. He talks bad about everyone like my mom does. He also has anger issues that he denies and he's always staring at me weirdly. I feel as if everyone in my family has some sort of mental issue; I need advice.

Recently I've been starting to hate my dad, and a while back my parents got separated, and are going threw a divorce, but my dad drinks beer sometimes, waste's all his money on cigarettes, and tries to have sex with my mom, I don't know why but I just hate him, out of no were, he decided to pop back in and say he wants to start over, all though their still going threw with the divorce, but he was doing the same thing as he did when he still lived here, stare at the computer all day, sleep, text on his phone and when we are on our electronics he claims that we hate him and were just ignoring him, but he does the same thing to us. Someone help me please, I am desperate!

I love mother Nature.But I wonder nature is known as mother nature.But no one consider them as mother.So,why nature is called mother?

Today my mom wouldn t let me go to my room, so i tried going around her, she then pushed me, grabbed both of my arms, & kept shaking me. I yelled ow & she kept shaking me & squeezing. When I finally got out of her grasp she reached for my arm, but i pulled away. She then tried to slap me but i backed away. She is an alcoholic, its just her & I here, & shes hit me before. My best friend s mom said to talk to the police in the morning & she will come get me. Should I? I really don t wanna go back I dont want to go back to living with my mom, If I leave I never want to come back.

Ok so long story short my mother is being evicted from her apartments because her husband decided to cook and go to sleep.. yeah you know how that ended. Anyway I moved over to my grandmother's house mind you our family is from the "hood" with this dumbass hood mentality and I grew up somewhat with them but not completely mostly in the burbs. My mother is the cleanest person I know on this earth and I moved in with my grandmother, she and my uncle are the most disgusting people ever roaches everywhere, bathroom omg so ******* nasty (had to bleach it down to the point I was crying), nobody wants to clean up but always complains about it. "I've come to the conclusion that they're mentally ill very sick. I try to help by cleaning up but the just make it dirty again like little *** kids. Anyway just venting *frustrated* how do I go about being financially stable enough to move out also I need to go in the ******* immediate future I can't stand filthy people. (Yes I love my family but they are sick in the head and doesn't want to clean and gets mad when people clean.)

If a boy and a girl were physically fistfighting, who do you think won the fight based on the end results : Girl-the one on top. Gave the boy a small bump on his head. Boy-the one on the bottom. Gave the girl a small bloody mouth from her braces. So who do you think won the fight based on the end results and explain why???

It's kind of weird when snow white refers to themselves as her "mother" and "father".

My dad and his parents are from mexico, my mom was born here in the U.S, like me, but her mother is also from Mexico and her dad, according to her, is part french (his dad is french), and this may sound weird, but i gotta ask. I'm white in more than half of my body, so does that mean im part european?

I am currently living in tj and I want to move to Los Angeles or Chula Vista but I have no money or a job. No one wants to hire a pregnant 18 year old. I want to move out before I give birth so I won t have any legal problems with the father. I don t want to put him on child support because we re in good terms and he hardly makes enough money. I am currently living with my mother. She says I can stay but the father lives in Los Angeles and wont be able to see the child as much because he has 2 more children. Which gives him less money. I m wondering if I can get section 8 without putting the father on child support or without income. Since I m about to have a baby. And wont be able to go to work or find a baby sitter for a newborn that I trust. Plus Im going to school next summer. I honestly need advice on what I can do at this point. Financial advice. I really don t want to get help from the government but right now it seems like the best option. I would stay with my mom but she doesn t like the father of my child and wont let him come. And it causes get legal problems since the father needs to see his child.
