Question: How do I convince my parents?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 02:12 PM PST

Hey guys, so I'm a junior in high school and decided that I want to join the U.S marines. Now my only issue is my parents are not supportive of me.. technically I can sign in when I'm 18 without parent permission, but I'd love to get them to support me.. any ideas?

Question: My sister is certified crazy. Should I tell people this or should it be kept confidential?

Question: How can I persuade my parents to let me bring my iPhone to school?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 02:09 PM PST

My parents bought me the iPhone 7 Plus 256 GB two days ago and won't let me bring it to school. Why would they even give me a phone if I can't bring it to school? There's no point. They will only let me bring it when I go volunteering at the hospital and that's only two hours which is every Thursday because it will keep me safe. I'm at school for seven hours and I can't even bring it then? So basically they're spending over 50 bucks a month for me to use it for only 2 hours a week. They won't even let me use it when I'm at home so I can't text my friends or play games. I can only use that phone for 2 hours every week. Seriously, what's the point of buying me this phone? I'm just mad because it's unreasonable and the 50 bucks a month is not worth it!

Question: My mom called someone she was talking about a fag, when my brother is gay so i called her out on it?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 02:05 PM PST

I was driving my mom and dad home. It was my dads 75th birthday. We had a great day until the car ride back home. My mom always dwells on the past and starts bringing negative stuff in our past. One of them being how my dad hired his friend to redo the kitchen. My mom always hated the guy, he was my dads friend and he actually was a really sh*tty carpenter. But my dad insisted on having him do the job because he was paying for it and he charged less than most but it frustrated my mom. He sucked at doing the job. He charged by the hour, my mom said he would milk my dad and go slow and basically took advantage of him (so my mom says), but he was my dads friend. The cabinets were mostly crooked etc. but thats not even the point thats the backstory. While she was talking she goes blah blah blah THAT FAG! Yes he was gay. But also my brother is gay (her son) and im like how are you gonna say that when your son is gay. And shes like dont invole your brother! This is about him!!! It basically made me mad because thats still my brother. I used to be a judgemental person like that but when i hear my mom talk like that and sound so ignorant it just lights a fire in me and make me call her out and hate her. I told her to never call me or hang out over her house again. My brother is supposed visit from DC and all our siblings come over and they are gonna wonder why im not there. What should i tell them? My mom is a good person when she wants to be but shes so toxic sometimes idk

Question: Since my mother likes to gossip about her enemies should I consider her a bad role model?

Question: My niece is ruining my life??

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:50 PM PST

I'm 18, I have a sister who is 20, and a niece who is 4. I still live with my parents because I'm still in high school and currently looking for an apartment. My sister is just a freeloader. I just want her to move out so I don't have to put up with her daughter anymore. When I found out that my sister was pregnant, I was excited to be an uncle, and never really put much though into it. Every time my girlfriend comes over, we try to cuddle and watch movies in my room, but she comes in and annoys us. I can't even hug my girlfriend without my niece screaming and kicking my gf. She'll also come down randomly throughout the day and barge in on me, and she almost caught me jerking off. I've asked her nicely to stop multiple times, and I'm starting to get more aggressive because it's so annoying. I would NEVER strike a kid, but this one just frustarates the hell out of me. I've asked her mother to keep her upstairs, but all she says is "ok" but never does anything. Whenever my guy friends come over, she'll barge in mid-conversation. My friends think it's cute, but I don't. Looking back, I'm now ashamed that I wanted to be an uncle at such a young age. I'm not allowed to have a lock on my door, because my dad thinks that I'm going to have sex with my gf or something. We are both of age. We both agreed on adoption if she were to get pregnant. What should I do to stop my niece from ruining my social life? (I can't go to my gf's house because her parents f*cking hate everybody).

Question: How can i convince my mom to let me wear contacts.?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:46 PM PST

Question: Tips on how to make a smoker quit.?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:33 PM PST

Hey, I'm 13 years of age and both of my parents are smokers. My dad is a chain smoker and my mom smokes too but not as much as my dad. I keep talking to them and show them videos that how harmful cigarettes are, but they just wont listen. I really wish them to quit because it makes me so sad that they are slowly killing themselves.

Question: Hate my life!?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:27 PM PST

I'm a twenty five year old with high functioning autism and I still live at home with my parents. The problem is I feel like a slave in my own home. I feel like i'm the one that my parents rely on for everything. My sister doesn't help much around the house which put a strain on my mother who has pins in her hips and can't stand for a long period of time. So on top of all my daily chores, i do the laundry, running errands and cleaning the house. Yet i can't do everything and if i do the slightest wrong or not to the expectation that my mom wants, I am the one getting yelled at. My dad is out working alot and i have a part time job while looking for a full time job. I try everyday to do what i can to help her out, but the stress is killing me, sometimes to the point where I want to slit my wrists and let them bleed. My boyfriend is trying to help me by asking me to move in with him, but because of the things my mother tells me, I fear that I am not able to leave or be able to function on my own. I can't take this, but i dont know what to do! Please help.

Question: Child visitation....PLEASE HELP!!!!?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:22 PM PST

So my granddaughter is 1. My daughter and the father of the baby is both minors. My daughter is 16 and the father is 17. The father and my daughter were only together for 2 months when I put a stop to their relationship cause he was controlling and verbally abusive. He also pulled her hair once when she tried to walk away from him (I didn't know this because she didn't tell me til I made him stay away from her). He then went to jail and has been in jail for a majority of the baby's life. He has been out for 4 months now and has a job. Well, we offered him and his mother supervised vistation with me, my husband and my daughter present. They didn't want that. So they took us to court. The judge ordered 3 hours of visitation every Saturday supervised by his mother. I don't trust his mother either. So this past Saturday was the first visit. She got a scratch near her eye that they claimed it was her nails. It's way too bad to be from her nails especially since I clipped them right before they picked her up. During the 3 hours they also fed her pancakes, doughnuts and some crackers and cheese. So she came back with a tummy ache. She also had in her hand a small piece of chewy candy still in the plastic wrapper with small bites taken from the wrapper. He has been told that she will literally try to eat non food items and especially plastic and paper. When we confronted him he said he didn't want to take it away from her.

Question: What is my nationality if my mom is german and my dad is american?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:12 PM PST

I was born in America by the way like my dad

Question: Is there a way to convince my wife my mother does not dislike her?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 01:04 PM PST

A few nights ago I brought our baby home from my parents house after she stayed with them during the day. When I give my wife the baby the baby starts to cry loudly. My wife then begins to cry as well and says " shes mad at me because I left her today." Keep in mind that our baby is 14 months old. I tried to comfort her and then she says it s something else but you will be mad at me . After several minutes of trying to convince her to tell me the issue she says your mom thinks she cries because of me. She went on to tell me that she concluded this because my mother doesn t talk to her a lot and on Thanksgiving my mother said this when the baby began to cry insanely. " Wow, I ve never seen her cry like that when I ve had her." " Have you Lois (my grandmother). That was all that was said for my wife to feel like mom was saying that to sneak in a insult on her. Now it ruins our relationship because I have had all I can take of her having these fake feelings and getting pissed at me for taking up for my family and not supportive of her. What should I do?

Question: Why does my family not want me around?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 12:31 PM PST

I don't get it, I'm nothing but nice to all of them and I mind my own business. I don't go around insulting any of them. I feel like my mom worships my other sisters saying, "these two will definitely be successful in the future." But to me she says, "you're a failure, lazy, & you'll end up homeless." I just don't get it, I don't know why I seem so "stupid" or "worthless" in everyone's eyes. Maybe if I acted like an a*shole, I'd be liked. It really sucks, I feel like I can't deal with it anymore. I get pushed around all the time & when I say something I'm the bad kid. No one in my family believes in me & this is the cause of why I fail at my job. I can't concentrate because all I think about is failure & what everyone of them will say to me if I fail. It really is destroying me mentally to know that there's no one by my side. I know I might be a little sensitive but at least I'm not a jerk. Moving out of the house won't really solve my problems & who said I was even allowed to move out? My mom thinks I don't know how to take care of myself. There are some things that I succeed in, but when I fail at something they have to broadcast it on the news. I feel hopeless like I'm stuck. Why do they keep discouraging me?

Question: My boyfriend acts like a child, what should I do?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 12:05 PM PST

I have been with my boyfriend for 8 months, I'm 20 and he's 24. We moved in together a month ago and I'm at a breaking point. He was coddled by his mother and step dad his entire life so he doesn't know how to cook at all, so I do all the cooking. He never seems thankful, in fact he always finds SOMETHING to criticize about my food. He also very rarely lifts a finger - the sink could be full of dishes and he'd sigh and mumble until I clean them. When we take car rides, he blasts the radio and sings along terribly and obnoxiously like a muppet (on purpose) to the songs, shouting right in my ear. One time I invited him over to my parents and my little sister was watching Paw Patrol and HE SANG ALONG TO THE THEME SONG. I was really embarrassed and my family gave me that "...what the hell is wrong with him" look. He also makes random noises such as meows. He gets angry over everything, just the other day for example, it was late at night and he had the blinds open with the light on, knowing people could look right in I went over to close the blinds. He goes ballistic; yelling at me and even calling me paranoid. Another thing is, he spends all day on his video games, he is so addicted that he even takes his headset with him to the bathroom. He's unemployed so he is on from when he wakes up at about 9am to 11pm or 12am everyday. He only gets off if he's tired, wants sex, or needs something from the store. His favorite TV channels are Disney and Nickelodeon, too.

Question: My sister kicked me in the nuts?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 12:00 PM PST

So earlier today, I was playing with my sister in the back garden and she jumped on me and pushed me to the ground. She then kicked me in the nuts and started laughing! Then a bit later on, I was sitting on the sofa watching TV and my sister came in and sat next to me and within a few minutes punched me in the nuts! Does she understand how much it hurts?

Question: If i want to have foster parents do i have to go to a placement?

Question: My sister is having troubles in school and she is failing. But whenever I suggest a tutor or offer help she gets pissed?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 11:43 AM PST

My sister is 15 and I get it. She is a teenager, she knows everything, everything wrong with her life is someone's fault and the world is against her. We've all been there. The problem is that school is not going to well. She has two failed tests this semester and she has a two tests coming up next week that I suspect won't go very well. She is studying and it's not like she is skipping class but this sort of thing is just not her cup of tea. My fiancé spent an hour trying to explain to her the industrial revolution and the slave trade triangle. He was drawing pictures and writing things but she just didn't get it. If she thinks that is hard she will need a small miracle to pass her physics test. My husband is an engineer and he has the patience of a God so he is the perfect person to help her. But we live quite far away so it's not really realistic. I found her a tutor and I paid him for the first 3 hours in advance. But when I told my sister she flipped and got angry thinking I thought she was stupid. She's not stupid. She just needs help with this. It's ok. We can't all be good at these things. But she refuses. How do I make her realize that she needs help, sooner rather than later?

Question: Should I be quiet permanently why or why not?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 11:42 AM PST

I have had issues with my fathers in recent years when I talk about certain topics such as fantasy tv shows, professional wrestling, and now basketball. In the past he told me that all I talked about was wrestling and he thought that I talked about it too much. He got mad at me this morning because I talked about a basketball game yesterday because his favorite team lost and he got mad and said whatever and OK in an annoyed voice. He got mad at me for telling the truth,which is that he will get mad again if his favorite team has the same game again. He thinks that his favorite team was a victim of bad calls and that is why he took out his anger on me. He always thinks that I talk about something too much. I can't permanently talk about any topic with him without him eventually get annoyed by it. He said he was not feeling good and didn't care about basketball. He normally has days where he claims he doesn't feel good due to several bad conditions that has. Should I be quiet from now if I always annoy people because I talked about a certain topic that is not even negative? I have communication issues because I can't always talk about certain topics with my father without him getting annoyed after me informing him about it. I always tend to say the wrong stuff,too much or not enough if I be quiet.

Question: I'm 16 and my dad still picks me up on the weekends?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 11:12 AM PST

I feel somewhat conflicted. Every weekend my dad will pick me up on Friday, after school (lately it's been every 2-3 weekends, because he's busy with work). Whenever I go, I just sit around in the house all day. My dad will usually be doing work from home on his laptop, and if he's not doing that he'll be doing work around the house (measuring rooms, having phone calls with construction workers, etc.). My dad and I don't have much in common, and so often times I feel a bit awkward at his house. I am also a bit awkward with my step mom who lives with him. Both my dad and step mom treat me very well and I appreciate it, but I still feel weird. I'm so much more comfortable at my mom's house because I mainly grew up with her. I'd love to be able to hang out with friends on the weekend or attend events related to my school club, but I'm afraid I'd hurt my dad's feelings if I told him I'd rather do xyz than see him. My mother tells me I should be appreciative that my father actually cares enough to want to see me, and I do get that! It's just that i'm getting older and would like to be doing things on the weekend instead of sitting at my dad's house all day. I've actually had to sacrifice attending some school events I've signed up for or hanging out with friends so that I could visit my dad. Has anyone whose grown up with divorced parents been in this conflict? What did you do?

Question: How to accept and deal with years of verbal and emotional abuse by my step-mother and father?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 11:11 AM PST

I always hated my step-mother. She was always all over my dad, saying how great he was, saying how he loved us so much,etc etc. He never really talked to my sister and I when we were at our dad's. We always attempted, but he didn't really respond. At their house, our step-mother ruled everything. I realize I was a kid and they were the adults, but I believe in a family some decisions should be made together (what we do on weekends, where we go out to eat). When i was 12, I found out my step-mother and dad had been reading my private text messages to my mom. They had somehow hacked into my phone and secretly been reading my text messages to my friends and my mom while my phone was charging. I'll admit I did not say nice things about them. They treated us very unfairly and so when my mom asked about my dad I told her what happened. They had gone behind my back and not read one text message, but had read them for months. They didn't call me out on the first mean message they saw, but decided to keep reading them. I was so hurt and betrayed. I'm 14 now and this fight that I had with them was two years ago today. I still can't get over it. I haven't seen my dad in 2 years. He wants me to go back, but I can't. The betrayal. I'm still not over it.

Question: How can I get my mother s husband to understand that I don t want to have a father-son relationship with him?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 11:11 AM PST

I am 20 and this is my mothers 3rd marriage.

Question: Can I report her for child pornography?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 10:19 AM PST

Let me just tell you now, I am 15. Okay, so I accidentally went to sleep without a shirt on, and my older sister (who is 19) took a picture of me and sent it to my mom. Since she took it without my consent and sent it out, isn't that still illegal? Especially since I am a minor... It doesn't matter if she was my sister or not and if the person she sent it to was my mother or not, right? Isn't that still against the law?

Question: If I do something my mom doesn't like or irritates her, she gets mad at me for the rest of the day.?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 10:19 AM PST

Whenever I do something my mom doesn't like, she gets mad at me for the rest of the day. She says whenever I come into the same room as one of my siblings, I just "start a conflict". If I just disagree with something my little sister says she will lose it and my mom gets mad at me. Even when I apologize she is still very irritable. If you have any advice for me, that would help out a lot.

Question: Should I dump my boyfriend for being disrespectful?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 10:13 AM PST

I was watching TV with my boyfriend downstairs and my brother and his girlfriend were upstairs in his room studying. I heard my brother loudly say "Oh God, I am coming". Then I heard his girlfriend say "Oh God, I am coming too". I told my boyfriend that isn't it wonderful that they were studying the bible. He laughed so hard he almost fell out of his chair. I told him studying the bible is serious business and he should not be laughing about it. Should I dump him for being disrespectful?

Question: Do you like my joke?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 10:10 AM PST

A little boy and a padophile are walking into the woods on a dark stormy night. The little boy says "I'm scared." The child molester says, "You're scared???? I have to walk out of here alone." Hahahah, get it????

Question: How do young people survive without parents?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 09:49 AM PST

I lost my parents a few years ago and was struggling with homelessness right after high school. I didn't have family/friends yada yada but I eventually put myself on my feet. I have an apartment that is dependent on my job and I'm really wondering how do people do it? Do parents help their kids with "adult stuff" like car payments and phone plans? If you couldn't pay your rent, could you live with your parents? I guess I'm just scared because it feels like I don't have a safety net and I'm stuck in my current job. If I quit, I would have to find somewhere new to live since my employer is also my landlord. I can't leave this job because it's helping me through college and I don't have the means to take out massive loans to just go to college. I also don't have the option to live with family until I get a "real job". Am I doing something wrong?

Question: How to improve on being responsible?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 09:48 AM PST

Lately, my mom has been claiming that I don't listen and that I don't do what I'm suppose to do around the house. She says that I'm careless because I left bleach by my dogs crate and it got knocked over and by me losing my retainer. How do I improve on my responsibility?

Question: Should my parents make me do chores?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 09:44 AM PST

Obviously I have to clean up after myself and everything but my parents make me do unnecessary chores and they make me clean up messes that I didn't make. I didn't ask to be born and I'm not your slave. And then they get mad at me when I try to runaway. I feel like a slave. I have to do all the chores while my brother gets to go to the park and out to eat and he gets to go to the arcade and play his Xbox all day.

Question: Why is my dad annoying?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 08:59 AM PST

I'm a 14 year old girl who lives in crapland aka Lebanon. He wants me to attend a lousy university, AUB. It doesn't even have what I want! He said, 'if you want to study abroad, go to Harvard'. I don't care about what he thinks, I want to apply in Denmark (3 choices) and Lund (Sweden). He wants me to choose near the end of June 2017 because university checks my grades starting September 2017. He yells a lot at my mom when they're late but he's slower than her. When I was 12 I became a Shinto, my mom and I told him and he was mad at me (he's one of these Muslims, I am not born Muslim but was raised in it). This year, early September, I added Buddhism (Zen/Soto) To my beliefs, he doesn't know and I won't let him know. He always has a fed up face when I say I don't want to go to where he wants me to! What should I do? Should I tell some relative?

Question: How to convince my mom to let me move in with my dad?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 08:41 AM PST

my parents aren't divorced but do live seperately (4 hour drive apart) and i want to go live with my dad. my whole life my dad has been working far away from home usually staying in a house or trailer he shared with his coworkers but now he has his own 2 bedroom apartment in a nice town/small city (population of 10,000) and he's offered me the second bedroom if my mom is okay with it. i don't like living with my mother because we're so different. i'm quiet and she's loud. i'm active and she's lazy. i want to become vegetarian and she likes meat. i'm buddhist and she's christian. i like town/city enviroments and she likes living on the farm (where we currently are). even if i did live with my dad she wouldn't be alone because i have 2 nephews that she has custody over (my sister isn't in the picture anymore. it's really hard only seeing my dad a few times a year but if i lived with him i could see him every night. oh and i wouldn't have to switch schools because i do online school. how do i convince her to let me move in with my dad ? ps i'm 13 turning 14 next month

Question: How did my sister-in-law get so fat?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 08:29 AM PST

I hadn't seen her since last year at this time. She used to be very small and skinny. She had always been known for eating a lot and never gaining a pound. Last year at this time, she had recently had her fifth kid, but you never could have noticed by looking at her. Despite being a 35 year old mother of 5, she looked just like she did 10 years prior. Fast forward to now and she is huge. I'd say she is at least 60-80 pounds heavier. It is especially noticeable given her short height. I literally did not recognize her at first. It's really just so strange seeing her look so different. It's also a little awkward since people used to always comment how lucky she was when she'd eat a ton.

Question: How do I tell my mum and dad that I now Santa isn t real I m 10?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 08:28 AM PST

know not now

Question: My mom doesn't let me voice my opinions, how do I handle that?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 08:28 AM PST

First off, I know my mom loves me dearly; it shows in her actions, not her words. However, when I feel like she's treating me unfairly or being mean to me, and I tell her that, I get in trouble (punished) and then she tells me that nothing good is going to come to me in life. Additionally, she blames me for everything. For example, if our finances aren't looking too good, or if we were expecting something and it doesn't happen, she'll say, "God is punishing us for your disobedience." So, I feel like I don't have a "say so" with my mom - she's there for me physically, but not emotionally. I'm a senior in high school and a few months ago, I had "Senior Night" for my volleyball team and everyone's parents came, except my for my mom. She didn't come because she wanted to go to church... but then again, my mom tries her best to feed me, clothe me, put a roof over my head, but I have no one to turn to. I have no siblings and my dad doesn't want anything to do with me. So I don't know what to do.

Question: Where to draw the line on kitchen use?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 07:53 AM PST

My teenage stepdaughter often wants to make dinner at our house rather than the tiny kitchen in her college apartment. My main problem with this is that she makes giant messes and cooks for days at a time. When she's in that kitchen I can't even get a drink of water in there. She leaves her purse and groceries in the middle of the floor, covers every counter with half completed projects and uses every pot and pan we have. Sometimes I just can't cope and leave. I was gone yesterday until 9pm. I got back and she's still cooking. I'm scared to go into the kitchen this morning because I'll lose my $hit if it's not cleaned back up. I want to let her come here but she takes extreme advantage. I dint know how to set proper boundries.

Question: Did I insult my grandmother?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 07:44 AM PST

My grandmother has always been a huge b***h to just about everybody. Nobody i know of, including her own family likes her. This was BEFORE she got dementia and Alzheimer's. Now, she just is about as functional as a two year old but she's so rude still. Anyway, i came in the house after going to get breakfast and she's sitting there looking at me all condescending like and i go "What are you looking at me like that for?" and i don't think she realizes how she looks to others. Is what i said rude?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 07:38 AM PST

I'm 15F and want to work as a counselor or corrections officer but my mom hates it. My dad died when I was 7 and he worked in tv and film. My mom says what I want doesn't want me do be an officer because it's a depressing and dangerous job and she just nags about it. Always, and now we're looking at colleges and she's only looking at schools for production but I don't want to do that. Is there anything I can do?

Question: My parents think it's still a bit early to put Christmas decorations up. Are they right?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 07:10 AM PST

I think it's a perfect time to put Christmas decorations up, but both my mum and my dad think it's still a bit too early. For the past few years, they start putting them up around the 20th and finish them between the 22nd and 23rd. A couple of days ago while they were shopping, I was bring decorations down and putting them up, but when they got home they ordered me to take the decorations down and bring them back to the attic. Are my parents right? Is it still a bit early to put Christmas decorations up?

Question: Family dysfunction for Christmas?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 07:01 AM PST

I'm currently bringing litigation against my sister, because she is the Executrix over my Mother's Will and is not following my Mother's wishes / instructions. Per the Will, my sister is to sell my Mom's old house, when she is no longer residing there. She hasn't been living there since May. Instead, she has rented it out to at least two different parties, and has not shared the income with me (or our other brother, to my knowledge). After involving a Probate Court Lawyer, she has made repeated lies. 1) She's only been out of the house for six weeks. 2) She has rented the house to a friend, and only charged them reimbursement of the house's utility costs. Additionally - as Executrix, she is required to pay taxes on the property, maintain homeowner's insurance, etc. As of late November, the School Taxes due by August 31st still have not been paid. When she was served with the Notice to Appear in court, her son called and left me a voice-mail message, that "the next time I see you, I'm going to fck you up!" My brother texted me recently, and asked if I was coming home for Christmas. Per him, my sister ("we all") wants you to come home. So - how should I respond to this? 1. I don't socialize with people: I'm in litigation against. 2. who threaten to perform violence against me. 3. who lie to members of the Court." 4. who don't follow Common Law, and shirk their responsibilities. 5. No response at all - if you can't say anything nice ..

Question: How to hide a progress report?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 06:40 AM PST

To be honest, I've been screwing around the start of semester. But now I vow to get at least 3 As and 3 Bs. Me and my friends have parents that are quite messed up. My dad is a true supplier and owns his own company but he winded up in jail once because hes pretty feisty and got physical towards my mom. My mom is an absolute control freak, when I accidental put my phone on silent and ignored her calls and since she had to pick me up from school, she turned into a demon when i got into the car and took all my stuff away for a weekend. Now the problem I have is that my progress report contains 1 A, 1 B, and 4 Ds. In order to ensure that I survive this week, I need to find a way to snatch it when it mails. My parents don't know they can check grades online, and don't know about progress report mail dates since they're really busy all the time. I need to find a way to get it from the mail. I know I have to improve my grades, but I really need to hide that progress report! Please reply with a logical solution!

Question: My Sister Is Really Fat Please HELP!?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 06:15 AM PST

Hello! Now, im not going to send a picture of myself but i am normal weight. 112 pounds to be exact. Now, on the other hand, my sister is extremely fat. 221 pounds. Now that's obese. My friends keep telling me that she is fat and she needs to drop some pounds, and I agree. But whenever I say that (I am trying not to offend her) she just says that she 'doesn't care'. She even struggles getting into her bunk bed and sitting in an armchair because her wiggly rinkled bum is drooping off the edge. She isn't chubby or anything like that. In fact, she has butt problems and has had to be injected many times. Her butt problems cause her butt to produce the biggest and stinkiest poops that block the toilet, and she sometimes even poops herself out in public. The worst thing though; the farts. Her farts are so smelly and wet it makes you sick. But for some reason, my friends like her *** and call it 'big and juicy'. The most embarrassing part was when she goes to the beach in a bikini and sometimes her butt just sucks up the whole thing so that it looks like she is wearing nothing. This really stinks. Please help me i cant live like this any longer. 1 last thing: I am 15 and she is 17.

Question: Why was this old man so rude to me?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 05:22 AM PST

I am 40. I work from home, I have been trying to find a babysitter for my 2 year old, my 8 year old and 16 year old. I am only willingly going to pay someone $250 a week. I need someone Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8am until 10pm. I am also a neat freak and I have not allowed any of the old babysitters we have had before do this either. I don't allow any babysitter to bring breakfast/lunch/dinner for her or himself that requires to be using my fridge, oven, stove or microwave. A lot of these potential babysitters with outstanding reviews have cussed me out because of my requirements and pay I am offering. Why are they so rude? Some of these stupid *** "young" sitters in the age range 17-20 don't even own a car! This stupid *** sitter today told me he is reliable as a sitter but has to use taxi's to get places. I called him a stupid *** moocher. Was he in the wrong? Because I know that I was not in the wrong.

Question: My mum forces me to do stuff?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 05:15 AM PST

Ok hear me out, I go swimming everyday for 2 hours. Sometimes I don t want to go since it freezing cold outside and they don t heat the pool. But my mum forces me to go every single day (except Sunday, the pool is closed) Also she is always negative, she can t take criticism. I tell her that I feel sick she doesn t do anything, she does types her friends on dumb facebook. I work hard in school, she thinks b s and c s are horrible. I do home schooling and I hate it. It s so boring, no friends, no social interaction, no nothing. Just sit on the computer for 8 hours a day then eat food 30 minute break then go to sleep. I m tired of this and I say I want to go to a public school, but she says they suck (They don t, they are kinda good for this kind of area) We are "staying" in BG for half a year now but we were supposed to stay here for 1 month. It s getting cold and I want to get back to USA where it s warm where I live. I say everyday I want to go back really badly but she says NO NO NO NO. Please help, Thanks

Question: Am I a bad person for letting my Mom suffer?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 04:33 AM PST

My Mom has did a lot to me and I still live with some of the abuse. My self esteem is so low because of her. I cut talking and dealing with her I feel better doing so because she always finds a way to bring me down. I've just heen focused on building myself back up. She's married but is alwaysbcalling me to fir money, food, clothes, bills and I got to the point where I couldn't deal with it because I was in college and barely surving and she didn't vare about my bills just hers. Anyway I just brought a new home ajd its pretty big forbme a single female and she asked could she or her and her husband live with me? Being around my Mom makes me feel low.nmy family says I'm wrong and not honoring my Mother as the bible says..any advice?

Question: I was 11 or 12 maybe even younger, I'm dying inside because I feel so bad I want to die. I was hope this isn't rape? I was molested as well?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 04:17 AM PST

I feel horribly bad because I have two younger sisters, I remember I masturbated & watch porn in front of them, but they didn't see the porn & didn't see me masturbated because I was under the covers & most of the time they were sleepin (we use to share a bed). When I was much younger I even dry hump in front of them a few times (I was not really understanding it was very wrong of me to do). I also remember my sister making believe I was a horse once & I had her on my leg, at one point I make her hump higher because in my head was like her private part is rubbin against me so I wonder if he feels anything. Another time I believe I touch over her diaper. I just did it to do it, like "let's see what happens" I believe I felt very bad afterwards & that was the last time, this was six or more years ago, I am almost 18 now & I see on google this is consider molested, to think I molested makes me feel like killing myself, I'm with kids all the time and I always make sure they do nothin bad & stay out of trouble including my sisters. Never do I have any thought of doing anything like that now, I'm very different now so to look back makes me feel sick. Let's put it this way, at the time I really didn't think it was so wrong of me to do, I really don't even know why I even did any of this, so when I look back I say to myself "what ****** world was I in?" Please I pray this wasn't molestation?I was & still is like a mother to them, now that I'm older I am really like a mother to them

Question: My sister is always yelling at our parents but my Mom says it is because she gets overwhelmed. Can this cause an adult to do this?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 03:28 AM PST

Does being overwhelmed cause one to lash out at others? I used to hear the same about my Mom's brother but he even got divorced because of it.

Question: My grandfather was an alcoholic. Is my Mom right that he was incapable of loving me or anyone else?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 03:27 AM PST

It always hurt me when she'd say this but she was always mad at him because it was her Dad so I don't know if she was just saying it because she was mad. He died 10 years ago but was thinking of it recently.

Question: I miss my childhood and I'm depressed is this normal?

Posted: 11 Dec 2016 02:57 AM PST

I miss having no responsibilities, I miss playing video games with my younger brother and also playing Pokemon cards with him, I miss playing board games with my whole family, It feels like I'm old and reminiscing. I miss when I used to believe that Santa was coming, and that he existed. I miss being the kid who watched Disney and listened to the Jonas Brothers. I just miss my friends from school too. I miss taking trips and spending time with my parents, or just playing on the playground.
