Family: Question: I literally have no food in my house? I'm hungry and I don't know what to do anymore?

Question: I literally have no food in my house? I'm hungry and I don't know what to do anymore?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 02:05 PM PDT

I live in a country with a ridiculously high rate of inflation and scarcity, so everything my mum earns goes directly to food, as we can't afford the luxury to buy anything else. The thing is, she was paid 2 weeks ago, and prices keep on increasing each day, so we can't afford anything else until 2 weeks later when she's paid again. We're 5 in the family and have been eating badly. I lost 2 kilograms in the past 6 weeks and my siblings have lost way more. I don't know about my siblings, but my hunger has affected my concentration at school, thus my grades as well (I'm an A- student, yet I've been getting B's). I'm just genuinely concerned about my family and myself, I'm tired sick of living like this and it has been affecting my siblings' health as well. We have a computer because we bought it ages ago, before the country turned into the mess it is now. In our fridge there's only 3 eggs, a single (literally, just one) sausage, half a carrot and half of a loaf of bread. Yet none of us can eat it because we have to save it for tomorrow's lunch. After that I have no idea what we're going to do. We do NOT have flour, milk, sugar, coffee, butter, mermelade, meat, chicken, or any other fruits or vegetables other than the carrot I mentioned. What can we do? :( there are no soup kitchens in my country and if there were they'd be packed of people, because practically everyone is going hungry here. My stomach is always growling and I feel like crying so much, I literally want to die.

Question: If my mother marry my father's brother what is they to me?

Question: How can I get my mother and her sister to stop disliking each other so I can have cousins again?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 01:55 PM PDT

I really like my cousins on my mother's side but I haven't been able to see them because my mother won't let me go over to her sister's house anymore after my Mom and her sister had a fight last summer. Her sister won't let her kids come over to our house. My Mom made us travel at Thanksgiving last year and see our grandparents at a separate time so we wouldn't be at the family Christmas Eve. So I have only been able to see my 3 cousins once (a wedding in April). There fight was because both wanted to do different stuff with some property they own with their parents and they always have had different personalities and both critique the others parenting (my aunt more so). Also my mother likes to hold grudges. I am mad that my Mom punishes me because she is mad at her sister. I feel like getting my Mom back by being mean to my sister but my sister is Autistic so I don't want to hurt her feelings and I am too close to my brother to do that. So how can I get my mother to like her sister again so I can have cousins on my Mom's side again? We have cousins on my Dad's side but they are a lot older though we do get to see them on holidays at least. My only other cousin on my mother's side lives in Minnesota which is far away and only comes at Thanksgiving which we aren't allowed to go to anymore because my mother won't let us because of my aunt. Any thoughts or mean things I can do to get my mother to change and then I will immediately change? I am mainly nice and liked.

Question: Is it bad I feel happy my sister failed her college exams? I feel so ashamed.?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 01:36 PM PDT

I know that sounds bad, but please listen. I'm 18, female, and I have a different father to my older sister, 21. She makes fun of me constantly because she says I look like a terrorist (half middle eastern)(She's fully white), says I'm an outsider and that I don't belong in the family, makes fun of my weight, looks, and everything. She seems really resentful and jealous when I'm happy and actually celebrated when my boyfriend was in a coma after a car crash. My biological father has never met me (it was a one night stand when my mom cheated and conceived me). My nasty sister tries to make me sad by saying my step dad who raised me, will never love me. In general I'm an easy going person and I support my friends and the people I care about. I hate seeing other people sad, but my sister depresses the hell out of me. I would never admit it out loud or make it obvious, but I feel pleased that my sister failed her exams. She's usually so stuck up and full of herself, she kind of deserves pain.

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 01:09 PM PDT

iPhone 6S plus Athletic Clothes/Clothes for school Xbox one $125 computer 1 pair of shoes Note that all my grandparents bought this for me except the computer, when I lived with my mom, we were really poor. Now I live with my dad. These are all the things I own myself btw. My own basketball Note that I got all this stuff occasionally, like Christmas etc. I could have gotten a apple computer but seemed my dad scammed me since I wanted a dell gaming computer. He says it is a "gaming computer" it's just a regular desktop that is fast. That's it. Oh and I made a bargain with my grandmother for 100$ sneakers every 3 months if I get good grades for school since my dad makes complaints and excuses cause he is poor too, last time I sneaked on his computer (it was on) I didn't touch it or nothing but anyways he had only 6k in his bank account. Ok that is it.

Question: Life Crisis?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 12:59 PM PDT

My whole family is kinda messed up, honestly. My brother is a sophomore in college and I'm a senior in high school. In late 2013, we found out that my dad had cheated on my mom 4 times while he was on business trips and ever since, my mom hasn't been the same. She's self-conscious about her weight and sees herself as much larger than she actually is, in my opinion. I can tell my dad regrets what he did so much and he's tried so hard for the last three years to make it up to us but the main problem is the fact that he has a drinking issue. But of course, like most alcoholics, he doesn't think he has a problem. In 2014, I went through a really bad time with some really bad personal issues and I felt like I had no one to go to because the rest of my family was already dealing with their own problems so I didn't want to burden them. I became pretty depressed but I feel a lot better lately. My mom on the other hand, still isn't doing well. She pretty much never leaves her bed and because of that, she isn't losing the weight she wants to lose. It's not that she eats very much, because she really doesn't, but she's just not active at all. I'm going off to university next fall and I'm trying to get into NYU which is on the other side of the country. She makes me feel so guilty sometimes because she'll cry and talk about how much she's going to miss me. If any of us tries to get her out of bed, she becomes snappy and just doesn't want to. I just don't know what to do right now.

Question: How do I fix conflict between two family members so they hug and cry and make up and live happily ever after?

Question: How do I get my older sister to realize how rude she is?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 12:35 PM PDT

My older is sister is extremely rude. She's told our family that our grandmother can go to Hell without reason, gets any reason for me to get in trouble, and mouths off everyone for even slightly disagreeing with her. Understand that she basically gets straight A's, and has depression and anxiety. She's never been to the principle or anything, but with family or anyone she doesn't know she is VERY rude. She's so disrespectful my mom is given up and my father and her don't talk. She can get away with anything because everyone is used to it but I don't want her to be like this. I guess you really wouldn't understand the situation unless you met her, but all Christmas dinner she would tell our grandmother that God isnt real at our grandmothers house and she'll argue for hours straight with anyone. Please if you have any advice at all I'd really appreciate it. :)

Question: PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!?

Question: Is it bad if me and my sister (shes 16 and im 15) touch eachothers privates?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 11:54 AM PDT

Question: Ever been caught masturbating or having sex?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 11:25 AM PDT

One of my biggest fear is to be caught having a little fun. Growing up with all girls in the house all the time, they don't really give privacy they just walk right in zero knocking, same as for everyone else who comes over they just walk right it. And if I lock my door that's just suspect and my mom will go to far and ask all these questions. Shower is not an option because it's to hot. Anyways all of this starting to have me thinking like I'm sure many people have been caught guys, girls, moms, dad's, even grandma and Grandpa do you guys have any stories of being caught or catching someone ? How did it go what happened? I wanna know!!

Question: Need some advice on this?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 11:08 AM PDT

So I made a basic plan for after graduation in December. I would continue to look for jobs in the city where my school is and in Norfolk, VA (where I want to move to) while in school. I want to get into animal care tech but if I don't get that first, I can continue to work on that while on another job. After getting a job, I can apply for apts which at the lowest is around 600. After that is all settled, I want to work on getting driving lessons in and most likely after work on getting licensed as an animal care lab tech. I thought this would be a good way to start out but my parents disagree since I don't want to go to graduate school. They get all pissed with me and say I'm going backwards. I know it's my decision but I've already been stressed out with this and I don't know what else to do to try to get them to understand. They hate the school I go to since it's small and liberal arts and say it's not the real college experience.

Question: Why does my dad complain about buying groceries when i explained to him how its cheaper than eating out?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 11:03 AM PDT

everytime i go to grocery store with my dad he complains about the cost of fruit, bacon, cheese, milk, cereal, paper towels. he goes straight to the tv dinner section, thats the only thing he buys from the grocery store,, tv dinners. everything else he goes to fast food restaurants for. he complains about buying the ingredients for cooking a meal even though i explained to him how long the ingredients may last depending on what you get. we have a family of five so it's more economical to go get groceries because eating out can cause us like 50 dollars a day. he bought $50 worth of groceries one time and complained about how he spent too much. he was like " i dont understand how cheese is so expensive" and i was like " you can use it for a lot of different dishes though and make it stretch". I'm the only one in my household that cooks and everytime i cook no one eats my food, they still go out and get fastfood. also we are going broke from all the fast food that can be avoided

Question: My dad always shouts at me and my sister?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:50 AM PDT

My dad always like every day shouts at me and my sister even about small things.He wasnt like this a few years ago.He is almost every time nervous and finds random reasons to shout at us.Sometimes he is right when he shouts im not denying but sometimes he shouts for no specific reason.When i try to point that he is not right he shouts even louder at me.Its not fair at all even my mom realises that but she cant do anything its useless.I cant stand this anymore.Shouting and shouting all the time.It pisses me off so much.Is there anything i can do to stop him or help my sister and myself?

Question: Worried about my girlfriends health. Pre diabetic.?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:46 AM PDT

My girlfriend throughout 7th and 8th grade was overweight. She then lost 50 pounds going into the 9th grade. Part of what made her struggle was her tendonitis in both of her feet from her soccer days. She's been working now and her parents don't have the insurance to cover her physical therapy as she has 3 other siblings and a dad in bad shape supporting the family. She lost her weight through biking and swimming. I've expressed my concern for her as she was eating sugary foods and she's gotten better at it but it's still bad she still has a soda and sweets over a regular meal. She's also pre diabetic. I've cried about this in front of her I couldn't hold it back I've had 4 people in my family die from diabetes and weight related issues and I don't want that to happen to her. But she still can't stop cause it's an addiction she tries but has a hard time doing it. Her family eats fairly healthy food too she just buys the bad food with her own money like her brother and then I have to pay for her healthy dinner just cause I care to much and don't want her to buy the cheaper crappier foods. I dint what her to be fat and unhealthy as she get older like my parents think will happen. What's should I do!?!?

Question: Should I break up with this guy I have been seeing? He always has an excuse not to get a job!?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:46 AM PDT

We have been together for 4 months he is 32, has 3 kids, has no job, his car recently stopped running, and he lives with his mom (I am 27). At first I gave him the benefit of the doubt because I too had been struggling to get a job for 3 years prior to us meeting and I didn't want to judge him. But now, I am starting to hate him. He doesn't drink or party but he has a previous criminal record so when he does find a job (usually fast food, or gas stations) he ends up quitting because he is so hard headed. He doesn't have a resume, he doesn't want to go job fairs, he ALWAYS uses his record as an excuse not to be proactive. He is lazy and the only thing he makes an effort to get is weed. He told me yesterday that him and his family will be moving to Brazil and that he has no choice but to go because his mom has custody of his children. I blew up at that point, He is a grown man but wont make an effort to pay of his 200 dollar court fee to get legal custody of his own children! He constantly feeds into fights with his alcoholic mother and the whole time I am thinking, " You are a grown man, she doesn't owe you anything and she pays all the bills GET A LIFE." I haven't talked to him in 4 days because I am at the point where I am going rip him a new one.

Question: I hate my family and I need advice?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:41 AM PDT

I hate them. I absolutely despise them. They insult me. They make me feel insecure about the way I look. They make me feel dumb. I'm writing this now because my dad just hit me. He brought out a plate of strawberries for us all to share, and when I reached for one he ******* hit the side of my head as hard as he probably could, and said "Not with your hand, you idiot!" Like, sorry, I didn't know I wasn't suppose to eat one WHOLE strawberry with my hand. If they were chopped I would understand, but they were ******* whole. I touch it, I eat it. He didn't have to hit me like that in front of everybody else, and call me an idiot over it. It's ******* absurd. He constantly calls me dumb. I try my best to keep my school average above 95, and I always get a 99 or a 98, so I know I'm not stupid. But he's done that so many times, I'm starting to believe it. They laugh and insult my hair, my few tiny little pimples (I'm a teenager, 17, I can't help it) my teeth, which are a bit crooked, and when I tell them it bothers me they just laugh. The worst part is I was just starting to feel confident. I was starting to look in the mirror and feel pretty. I was starting to feel like I'm intelligent. Now it's all gone. Now I feel like ****, and I cry myself to sleep every night because I feel like I'm the ugliest dumbest thing that has ever existed. This feels like hell. I'm running out of space, check the updates.

Question: My parents are trying to control my life!!?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:40 AM PDT

Firstly my mum tells me that my boyfriend isn't good enough, but she doesn't even take time trying to get to know him, my dad gets annoyed because I told him I don't want to go to college or uni and I have a good plan on what I want to do but he doesn't even listen because anything other than a degree is disappointing. I already know that I will never be good enough for them but if they just took time to see my point on MY LIFE and respect my decision and maybe be happy that I'm happy for once then nothing would be bad!!

Question: My mom is such a b*tch, ugh!?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:32 AM PDT

So today I was lounging on my parents' bed 'cause my knee hurt and their bed is way comfier than mine, when suddenly my mom walks up to me and starts chewing me out for having 7 (B*TCH THERE WERE ONLY 4) dirty dishes in my bedroom. The first thing I did was ask her why she went in there, 'cause my room is usually off-limits to the rest of my family, and she got really offended for no reason and told me that she was the adult and she didn't have to tell me anything, and claimed that I was a hypocrite because I happened to be in her room at the time. I got pissed off and tried asking her again, but she just said I was being a b*tch, so I told her that I wouldn't move until she answered my question. Then she got all pissy and said that she would take care of it herself. I followed her to my room to try and stop her, but before I knew it she had taken my laptop, and she went downstairs and hid it and said that my phone was next. So since my mom was ignoring me, I told my dad that I wasn't going to clean that sh*t up until I got my computer back, and then I locked myself in my room with my phone and that's where I am now. I'm still really mad and I don't want to apologize because she doesn't deserve it and she overreacts like this every time I do something wrong. I hate it. So anyway, how do I get my computer back? Nvm, she apologized. :P

Question: I said I wanted my dad to die and I think he heard. Please help?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:28 AM PDT

I didn't mean to. I really didn't. I love my dad. I tell him this everyday. But this morning I was having a bad day and he started yelling at me and saying I don't do anything etc & I got really annoyed and left and went into my room & i don't know if I have anger issues or anything but I was literally so angry I just blurted out I hope you die, and I think it was loud enough for him to hear. I immediately regretted it and I couldn't believe I had said that. When I went out he was acting the same, he took a nap and I went in his room later to ask him if he wanted me to wake up him for work (he had to work today) and he said yeah & I thought everything was okay. He didn't seem sad or angry with me. Then when he woke up he was in the living room and he seemed like he was in a bad mood but he smiled at me and my mom so idk & when he went to work he just said bye to me and my mom and left & he usually hugs and kisses us. I don't know if he's in a bad mood or if it's because of me. I feel horrible. I love my dad. Idk what to do.

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:27 AM PDT

She constantly rolls her eyes and puts her hands on her hips, and is too sassy. She even says "I'm just like the Kardashians." I literally want to slap the crap out of her. I try to tell my parents but they say not to worry about it. ******* hell, I can't stand it. Suggestions?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:17 AM PDT

I m about to turn 18 next month. My dad lives in us and I live in india. He will be coming to India next month. My dad is really strict about my studies. He scolds me every time I get low grades or even if I make some mistake. Like, If I didn t go to college even one day he would ask why didn t you go. Don t you have anything to do in your life you ll be cleaning bathrooms when you grow up etc..I mean really is that all going to happen if I miss just one day of my college. I just talked to him yesterday over the phone and he started topic about my studies and started scolding me. He told me that he ll punish me when he arrives here.

He came to from behind and hit me on my head and took my mobile. His hand is like a stone. My head was hurting till morning. I m afraid what should I do if he hit me. I m afraid

Question: My parents REFUSE to buy me a lock for my room?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 10:11 AM PDT

I'm a teenage girl, and whenever someone needs to enter my room they don't even have the decency to knock. NO ONE knocks. They walk in and out whenever they please. I always have my parents and brothers walk in on me while I'm changing and it just isn't fair...It just happened today. When I asked my parents they flat out said no and my mom said "I never had a lock when I was your age." My older brother has a lock for his room. Why can't I have privacy like he has? I don't get it.

So I left my journal out in the living room because I was showing my mom a drawing I drew. But in that journal is also some personal things that I wrote, and this morning she told me she read them.

Question: Tips on moving out successfully?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 09:51 AM PDT

Hi! I really need some advice on how to escape from my parents as soon as I'm 18. I'm 16 and I'm still dealing with my parents. My mom gets drunk everyday and my dad talks to me like I'm his counselor...And I've told them that I just want to finish high school and stop dealing with police and fighting. (I don't want to go into detail because It would take up a whole page). My older brother failed. He dropped out of school to do online school and he failed. Now, he got his girlfriend pregnant and they're now living with my grandparents. That's not what I wanna do. I want to go to college and go to med school. I just don't know how to make it there. I know it's hard. My mom still hasn't enrolled me in school OR taken me back to school shopping. I have to go to school for the first 30 days if I want my license un-suspended. I am so eager to get a job to make money so I can be able to move out successfully. But, my mom is trying all she can to make sure that doesn't happen. Can anyone give me tips on how to succesfully move out when I'm 18?

Question: What should I do?!?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 09:38 AM PDT

I've only met him ONE time so I'm essentially moving in with a stranger. I don't feel comfortable moving there and my mom doesn't care. Should I go with her or find somewhere else to go?

Question: How can we get my dad from stop smoking cigarettes, asking us for money to buy more of cigarettes, and plus make him stop use word greeking?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:56 AM PDT

Everytime my dad smoke cigarettes he smokes the whole pack and asking more money to get more cigareetes and he wants me to use my ID to get him cigarettes for him. All because he's too scared of how people will judge him of his appearence. he always smoknig a lot we told him to stop smoking but he refuses to listen to us and won't call his son to get the fridge because it's broken and won't fix the stove burner. He just won't listen to us women in the house that we've been paying bills and he doesn't help. He's too jealous of my brother that has a job and taking care of his girlfriend and son. Get this he refuses to teach me how to drive a car and won't take me to the place so I can pass my knowledge test to get my permit to drive. Please no rude, disrespectful, nasty, spam, and anonymous comments because some people don't know where I come from And plus, he eats up all the food in the house and not leaving us any food just a crumb of food. Then he said to me" you need to get a man" the heck he doesn't realize that I don't need a man like him to have my life but for real he's nothing but a bitter, lazy, jealous, old man and waste of a man of that he really is that is making my own mother to say shut up to me.

Question: Im sick of the toxic environment in my house? I think my parents are mentally unstable. Its hard tocmpve out?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:55 AM PDT

Recently my parents have been arguing and my dad being abusive to my mother. They are always depressed. Talking about what others have and we dont. I have 2 sisters. My older sister is 21 has a job and so do I. My younger sister is 13. Me and my older sister split the house bills because my father is trying to pay off his car loans because he thought uber was a good job. Yesterday things became bizarre. I got home from work and was making a burger in the oven. He said I cant do that and he tried to throw out my burger and got very loud with me. And I told him no. I want to make the burger in the oven. He punched me on the side of my brain and in my face. Them he beat me with a stick. He said he wasnt going to suffer in the heat. It was stupid reason to beat me. I called him a ***** for putting his hands on me. He beat me more. My parents have issues mentally. And I want to move out. Me and my sister go to school full time and work our *** off in retail. They treat us so bad. Yesterday my dad called his friend and switched the whole situation and made it seem like I was at fault because I have a hispanic boyfriend and said I became bad. My boyfriend is hispanic. But doesnt follow the culture. He is white. They dont like him because he isnt muslim. Before he used to come over and everything. I feel like I have changed into a dark person. Its so hard to move out with school and work. What should I do?

Question: Can you get ptsd from this?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:45 AM PDT

ok so when I was 12 I was a bad kid, I won't go into detail but I was not exactly well behaved. so my dad found out I was being disrespectful at school and he grabbed me and screamed obscenities at me, calling me a b*tch and he doesn't care about me or love me anymore. He made me sit in front of the door and I was in tears because he told me he was going to stop feeding me, stop giving me water, etc. and I thought I was going to live for another week or so. before that he always said he'd love me unconditionally and protect me from danger, and in that moment he was the danger that night he made me sleep on hardwood floor, and then early next morning he came into my room and told me I could get back in my bed. when I got up it was like nothing happened, he was back to his normal self, but I was still traumatized. I still have nightmares and I still sometimes remember it and think about it for hours and cry. don't cry child abuse, this was only a one time thing and I probably deserved it, but it still haunts me to this day.

Question: Why is my mom like this?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:36 AM PDT

My mom & I normally get along great, but sometimes I feel like she can be difficult. I ve always kept to myself, got great grades, never had an interest in partying, so I ve definitely kept out of trouble. Still, my mom would nit pick, like once I struggled in a math class (I m horrible at math, and she s even worse) and I came out of the class with an 88 and she yelled & said I was better than that. When I had my first serious boyfriend, (I was 18), she became suspicious of me, and wouldn t let me leave the house. She loves to vent to me about her life in detail, and I always listen and provide her with advice if she needs it. But it s totally one sided. If I come to her with a problem or just something I want to talk about, she shuts me down and says I m being silly or she just doesn t care to listen to me. I ve become vegan this past year and she refuses to let me talk about it. She would ask about it, but when I explain why I m passionate about it she yells and says it s stupid and I m an inconvenience now. I dislike when vegans are preachy & "holier than thou," but my mom swears I m one of them and constantly yells at me for "looking down on non-vegans." That s far from the truth. She once went on a date with a new man and didn t return until late the next morning, and got mad at me for being worried and upset she didn t let me know she was okay. She didn t even know what my college major was, way after I started.

Question: Am I being abused?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:31 AM PDT

So let me give you an example. (This happened to my sister not me but it's just an example of the kind of stuff my dad does) my whole family takes vitamins every morning. My dad was handing my 9 year old sister her vitamin when she accidentally dropped it. My dad became very angry at her and started screaming and yelling. He proceeded to spank her, and then tell her she had to eat it and he hoped it had peanut butter on it (she is deathly allergic) he does this all the time, and then later acts like nothing happened, but he will never apologize. He will treat you good, then he will snap like this, and then life goes on like nothing happened. It is a cycle. How can I stop it, and is this even abuse? Please help!

Question: Is this the rite or wrong way to deal with this situation?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:19 AM PDT

Ok so I was in an abusive relationship for 2 years.I tried to leave sooner but I could not get the help I needed to get out so I had to wait until I could get out myself which resulted in more abuse until I finally was able to leave.So this is what happend.My ex punched me in the face one day when we were in the car.I never went through anything like that before & was in shock so I called my family first my mom,dad,grandparents.They all told me they would not call the police if they were me & that I could not go to any of there houses.(FYI my mother was hit by my father & my grandparents were on the next flight to go get her & bring her home)but they all told me I had to deal with this myself & the reason why they wouldn t call the cops is that I d have nowhere to go since I could go to any of their homes.After that I nievely took their advice thinking why would my own family steer me wrong & wound up being stuck with my ex who a year later punched me in the face again.Please keep in mind I stayed a whole year because I fell into deep depression after what initially happend.This time the police were called by a neighbor but when they came my ex was able to convince them I fell & he was never arrested nor was my statement taken etc...I then called my family again & asked for help but got not only the same response but questioned why I stayed???umm because I had nowhere to go I stupidly listend to your advice to tell police & fell into depression because obviously I was still being absued.So at this point

Question: I told my mom my dad was cheating and now he's mad?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:03 AM PDT

I caught my dad cheating on my mom, he told me not to tell her. He offered me money and to get me some stuff if I didn't say anything. I turned it down because I felt so sick knowing he was with someone else. I told him if he's not happy he needs to speak up and tell my mom. I told him he had 1 month to tell her or I would. 1 month went by and he didn't say anything so I told my mom which was so hard. Now they're getting a divorce and my dad is blaming me calling me an a hole and saying I should've stayed out of it. My mom thanked me and said she would've been hurt if I didn't say anything and she stayed with him without knowing. So I feel torn, 1 parent hates me and the other one doesn't. He said he doesn't even want to fight for custody of me which I guess proves he didn't even care. Should I be upset? What can I do to make him forgive me and understand I didn't want that burden on me? I was sad at first but now I don't know how to feel. I know people will say it's my fault but it's already done I just need advice on what to do now, if I should do anything.

Question: I hate my step mom?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 08:02 AM PDT

there's just so many fhking things to say. she is a complete b*tch. I'm only 14 and I can already tell I won't be visiting the day I move out (which is apparently the day I turn 18 seeing how she's already talking about what she'll turn my room into) I hate her so much, she gets JEALOUS of me when I talk to MY dad. No wonder she has no friends.

Question: Kind of a weird question , whenever me or my dad drop off my little brother at my moms house he starts to cry extremely bad?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 07:56 AM PDT

And as of lately it s extremely bad , to the point where every time I leave him (as in drop him off or having my mom pick him up) he starts to cry. It makes it hard on him but even harder on me and my dad when we have to see him go like that. And I m not entirely sure what to do... He s 11 years old , in the 6th grade. He lives with my mom and her boyfriend (functional house to my knowledge) . He claims it s just how much he misses us and that s why he starts to cry. But then it makes my mom upset and she wants him to spend less time with us so he won t have these episodes but then it takes away the time that me and my dad deserve with him. Let me know what you think yahoo. Try to not give any B/S answers.

Question: I don t want to look after my brothers anymore!?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 06:54 AM PDT

I have just turned 17 and I am due to start my second year at college in September when I will be doing 3 days at college and 2 days at placement, putting that aside I have to look after my 2 younger brothers (12 and 6) my parents said they would pay me and I ve received nothing but I have received gifts at the end of the month that are worth around £2-£5, I could earn more going to work but they always threaten to quit their jobs which will bring hardly anymore money in, my parents work either morning, afternoon or sometimes all day which i look after them for 8-10 hours it may vary and they both can work all day the same day, there are things I want to do like, get my provisional driving licence and driving lessons so then I can learn to drive, but I m scared if I tell them I don t want to do it anymore i will be kicked out and have to go live with my sibling, what am I supposed to do because I feel upset being the child that looks after them all the time

Question: My family never wants to do anything?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 06:40 AM PDT

So for the past few years, my family has never gone on a proper vacation. I finally thought this year would be the year we would get to go on vacation, but I guess I was wrong. We're not rich, but we're not that poor either. I mean, my parents recently got a car 2 weeks ago! So based on that, I just feel like my parents don't want to go anywhere. It's so frustrating because I don't have my license yet, and for most of this summer, I was stuck watching my baby brother while my parents work. Even during the weekends, we don't get to do much. I'm sorry if I sound too selfish :( I'm just so aggravated that I'm always the one who tries to bring up the idea of a vacation :(

Question: I feel no love towards my children?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 06:21 AM PDT

I am 49. I started feeling this way 10 years ago, when my son and daughter were 8. They are now 18. I put them out when they were 17, and I have not once heard from them since. I put them out with no ID's or money, as I never allowed them to have it. I started beating them when they were 8 did that for 9 years. It was punishment. When I was their age, I also got beat. I had them in online schooling, but had to have them quit in 6th grade as I could not afford it anymore. They have had no education higher than 6th grade. I do not feel bad for the ways I have treated them. My coworker and I were talking other day about them he said it was horrible what I've done to them. What is wrong with me? I did everything right. I'm not a troll

Question: I hate university.What should I do?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 06:07 AM PDT

I am 21 female and I am studying physics at what is considered probably the best uni in my country.The thing is,despite my general appreciation and respect for sciences,I ******* hate it.I hate the courses and I hate the people too (I only like a couple of students who are never at classes anyway).I have always wanted to be a fashion designer and my parents didn't like it so the kept encouraging me to pursue an academic career.I know that my choices are mine but the pressure was a lot for a teenager.I cry every day and when I am not sad I simply feel nothing,as if I am dead.I even tear when I go there and most of my classes I haven't passed because I draw and sew instead of study.I have no boyfriend either and my parents don't really want to talk about my problems,they get mad whenever I mention them and call me lazy and immature.I also can't find a job because my country's economy is really down.At this point I google suicide,I don't know what else to do.

Question: My younger brother is really horrible, but my parents just say I'm sensitive? You decide.?

Posted: 21 Aug 2016 05:52 AM PDT

My younger brother, (who's 11) is absolutely horrible. In front of my parents he's nice, but when he's with his friends he's absolutely horrible. He calls me fat and a whale just to get a laugh from his friends, which sometimes sends me into tears (because I'm not very body confident even though I'm the average weight) However, when I go to my parents they just call me sensitive and to get over it but it honestly really hurts. I try to not let it bother me but it always does. It's making me cry just writing this. What do you think? Am I too sensitive?
