He's an alcoholic and usually refuses to see me saying his wife has him doing errands (which is BS). I feel guilty when I bad mouth him and my mother will do nothing but bad mouth him if she learns he said no but it felt too weird the year I lied to her and said I was seeing him but wasn't. I am 23 but their ******* bull crap still hurts me. How do I get her not to hurt me if he hurts me?

When I went vegan once she would criticize me about it often I know usually moms would once or twice but she over did it, but when she went on a gluten free diet I never once criticized her I bet she wouldn't like it if I did though. She also complains way too much it's literally all she does I can never have a normal conversation with her but when me or my brother did she would yell at us, one day I was talking to her and told her she complains so much she said that she doesn't. She also says one thing and another one day she was complaining about how my brother is a slob but just recently she was saying how he wasn't I said uh yes he is. And one day she told me I need chips or something because I am so skinny I don't mind being called skinny but she would HATE it if I told her to eat a salad or something, I can never talk to her about this because she would flip if I called her a hypocrite. Please help she would also hate it when I stop talking to her when I move out but I can't be around someone who is negative constantly.

My daughter is 2. But we are moving from Los Angeles, California to a town of 90,000 people in Nova Scotia-Canada. We have a new job offer there. My husband and I are 23.

his son is like 8 and he picks him up and holds his butt

I feel so overwhelmed by facebook because from my cousins to my older relatives to my grandparents I feel an overwhelming sense of pressure that only grows with every passing day. I feel like screaming and it gets to the point that I'm in tears because I have a life and its not fair I'm so jealous of simple families. I hate being Greek I hate Greeks. I hate that they are in your face. I am sick of being nagged at by my mother to look at this post and that post. I'm sick of being compared to my cousins success. I'm sick of getting yelled at for not keeping my parents updated on every little thing my relatives do. IM SO SICK OF IT ALL while other people get to relax with movies or whatever after work and school I have to deal with facebook against my will I'm sick of it I'm close to having a nervous breakdown I hate how my family has to be so difficult :,(

My sister has graduated with her doctorate. I would like to set off a few minor fireworks as she recieves her degree to celebrate her accomplishment. But my girlfriend thinks this is a bad idea. She is worried that it will cause a commotion or scare the crowd. What do you guys think?

My dad has said since as long as I can remember that he was going to kill me when my time has come. I just found out that I have cancer in my pancreas, and odds are very low for surviving. Should I kill myself or await my inevitable demise at my father's hand?

My sister is mother of two children. Her husband is a difficult person to deal with. Yesterday, I came to my sister's house. It was my nephew birthday. I brought him a pizza which I handed out to him. He didn't say "thank you" so I asked him "what do you say?".... then after I reminded he said thank you afterall. The reason I did not bring a birthday present because he never liked any presents that I gave to him. First a comic book two years ago, which he commented "give me a better present". Then I gave a gundam model kit which he never built. My nephew is in 5th grade anyway. Feeling a bit annoyed, then I talked to my sister. I told her giving a gadget to a child who is yet 8 years old would cause the child to be an introvert (I read the online article wrote by a doctor). She refused the idea and she said ok. Which what happened next, my other nephew a year old toddler boy was playing with her tablet which has a cat apps. The cat can repeat anything what you just say. So I slowly picked the tablet while saying "Can uncle borrow your tablet?". I hold the tablet to see the cat and suddenly my 2 year old nephew force to take it from me without saying anything. I said to him "please ask nicely" and this toddler kept trying to take the tablet from me by force and then I gave up and return the tablet to him. This is what got me angry because my younger sister did not try to calm her son. I came to her house with good intention. But my sister was a self ego maniac who thinks about herself and she was mad at me rather than trying to calm the toddler. and I told her giving tablet to toddler is not a good practice. FYI, I was sick for 3 months (couple years ago). And it was a serious internal organ illness. not once she asked me how I was. and then, when yesterday I asked her why you never care when I was sick, she told me "what am I supposed to say and do?" she is really something else isn't she....?? I left the house feeling angry and regret that I came to that house. Especially because my sister is a self centered ego maniac *****! I brought my rude nephew pizza because he said he likes pizza, OK?

Yesterday my 10 year old sister kicked me in the face. We were jumpin on the trampoline and she didn't mean to. Now there is a nasty dark purple bruise/ popped blood vessle on my nose. I tryed my coverup, but tommrow is a school day and Im freaking out because it didn't really work today. I went to my grandma's birthday at her church, and some old lady whispered in the background, looks like someone can't put on make up. I was sooo embarrased! Imaging what 8th graders will say, thats the grade im in. Im 14 and need help on this. Should I apply more cover up, stay home or what? My mom said it will go away, but you know how I feel right about now. - ♥Brittany

I think it goes to me unable to spend any money. My sister gets 1591 Dollars each month, my brother gets 623 Dollars, my father 928 and my mother gets almost the same as my father. We payed off all debts but my brother still pays for his car each month maybe he lol finish after several months. My brother suits himself and so my sister. My mother and father use money to buy home stuff and sometimes send some money to a close relative who traveled to China ( about 170 dollars every few months, her family already gives her money but we re helping, she a studying there ) and save the rest. You might say our life is going perfectly but it s more repetitive than actual hell. I go to school, 9th grade, life has been pretty much the same every day, and I got a PC, phone, my brothers have 2 play station 4 s and it s all fine, but the main problem is that I not spending money, my family would give a all I would wish for but I can t spend my money, I always hesitate telling myself "I won t buy a video game, my money can be spent for better stuff and actually i didn t spend money for years ( unless when I go to the barber, I fill my phone with accredit card only once a month so they won t shut it down ) I just can t spend it, why the hell? I want to but I don t want at the same time, and my life is boring as ******* hell. It s repetitive more than anything and I think starting to spend money would change it but I just don t fell comfortable about it.

Do you ever argue with a sibling & they hit you & you hit them back & get in trouble well that has happened to me. Have you ever did what was right the next time & told your parents so they can deal with it? I have & it leads to nothing I think I'm going to take matters into my own hands like before because when I come to my parents with my problems they don't do anything. A few weeks ago I was walking with my sis & we called our dad to come pick us up. Before he came to pick us up my sis unlocked the door & went in the house when my dad arrived she told me to go lock the door. I was like it's not a big deal but no you went in you lock the house up. She started acting retarded & threw a basketball at me. What would you do if you were me & what would you do if you were the parent I try to do right but I'm not going to kiss ***.

I need help fellow moms, I have two daughters, one is 14 and one is 11. All three of us signed up for taekwondo a while ago and were starting to get into sparring, which is like fighting. I wear a breast guard and groin guard but I found out my 14 year old doesn't wear hers. We were practicing at our house when I had a stray kick land on her there. I felt so bad but she told me she never wear hers or her sister. They need to be protected I feel but I don't want to be the weird mom to make them put it on infront of me.. But she said she still won't wear it after what happens. Help me moms!

I'm a 16 year old boy with abusive parents, mentally and physically. I'm never allowed out of the house unless it's school and it's only been like this for the past year or so. My parents are terrible; They hate (literally) all of my friends and don't allow me to meet any of em. I'll be 17 in 2 months. I'm trying to find a job so I can move out when I'm 18, but they know what I'm planning on and they'll hurt me if I get a job and they'll prevent me from ever working. They've said they're gonna control my life for the rest of their lives and that my purpose in life is to serve them. I have 3 siblings, of which 2 of them hate me and the other I don't even know how feels about me. I have no other family to seek to for help so I'm alone in this. What are my options? Thanks for any help!

I had been riding for 7 years and then i quit for a little while. I just started after 3 years of not riding. I never entered into competitions, even though i did show jumping. Recently i have made A LOT of connections with horsebackriding teachers and directors of show directors. I have also decided to join USPC (united states pony club) and i am really excited to be hangin out and riding with people my age. Recently i have been asked if i wanted to get the tetanus shot and my parents decided they didnt want me to get it because my dad doesnt want me to get it (idk really why). But recently i have talked to my mom about it, and because i have started horsebackriding again i should get the shot. But i am veryy afraid of shots. But horseback riding is my passion, and i have persuaded myself to get it. Getting the shot snt really a big deal to me but my main problem is this summer pony club is going on a huge HUGE camping trip to a horse camp. But its mandatory that u have a horse, because they dont have any training horses for me. My trainer said we could either lease a horse or buy one. But my parents arent very sure they can afford the monthly fees. I REALLY DO want to help them out so i can at least lease a horse for camp, because thats the only thing i am really looking forward to this summer. I am pretty sure i am a little too young to get a partime job (i cant drive yet). So i would like some advice or ANY commetns on the above.

My brother is 15 and I'm 17 and we're really close. I was cuddled up with him one evening, we were watching a film on the sofa and I sort of wrapped my arm around him. A little while later I noticed a bulge in his shorts and he looked embarrassed when I looked at him. A little while later he was up in his room and when I went up he came out and said "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened". I gave him a hug and said "It's ok" and kissed him on the cheek. It's only normal for a 15 year old boy to get a ***** right?

Hello, my mom does not appreciate what I do for her at all, neither does her boyfriend. They think I disrespect them all the time, when really I am trying to be nice. They say that I am too lazy sometimes, and that I don't do anything for them when they do things for me, when really I do a lot for them, but they don't realize it. They don't really appreciate me at all, and I would like to show them that I do things for them as well, I've tried telling them but they disagree. Any advice?

My ex-gf and I share custody of my son who's 5. It was difficult to get along with her when we became parents( we're both 22). She and I have different styles of raising him. Her style is to let him do anything he wants and let him call the shots. My style is a bit more firm; with actual rules, not a lot, but, there are rules. Perfect example is when she dropped him off a few weeks ago. She showed up with him way past his bedtime( at least, the bedtime I set) and eating skittles & drinking coke. We argued and she just brushed it off as " Let him be a kid." Why does she do these things?

Every time I give her a gift, I never feel like she understands the thoughts and the ideas behind it. I gave my mom a Mother's day present today because we weren't able to yesterday cause we were both working. She worked day, I worked evening. (I'm a student). I bought her a $5 dollar card, because I find cards the best part of the present. I usually give her the most beautiful cards, the most sparkly, and than I write things inside from my heart. I was reluctant to even get her a present because I don't feel like we need materialistic things to show we care, but in my family situation I feel like giving gifts is the best and easiest ways for me to show that I care. I work a job, and called selfish sometimes that I want to save my money and not spend it. But I took that aside and with some struggle bothered to get her a gift. I spend quite a while looking at things she might like. She might not NEED, but for me it's the THOUGHT that counts. And yes, I put quite some thought into it. I decided that I already got her a heart necklace, and I already got her a necklace that said MOM on it. So I decided some really simple earrings and a matching necklace. They looked really delicate and beautiful. Maybe they were not gold, silver, or diamonds, but I thought they matched the card so well! They were around 8 dollars. I didn't want to go more expensive because it was the thought that counts, and not the price, and the fact that their was no guarantee she would wear anything I bought her. I got her for her Birthday lush goods before, with soap and facial, and she never used it. $40 dollars out the door. I got her before a necklace that said Mom, that was sterling silver, and money out the door. How many gifts do I need to buy before she appreciates the thought behind them. I went to my room and cried, when she looked at my present she only noticed the value and not the thought. Immediately she asked, how much is it, and let's return it. for something else. Of course cause they were earrings with matching necklace, it wasn't returnable. They were simple material, but looked so beautiful and sparkly. I told her I would wear it someday if she doesn't. What hurt the most was when I took my courage and gave her the present, and she had such sympathetic eyes, like "why the **** did you get me a present, I don't like." It hurts! I'm only 19, what do you want from me? At least this means that I won't get her anything more than a card in the future. 13 dollars might not sound much, but I worked like one hour to make that money and it;s like one hour worth nothing. All I wanted was too show her I cared. And all I wanted was some appreciation that I'm always the first one to say Happy's Mother's Day!

I am traveling to be with my family this Christmas. I have not gone to visit in 3 years. This visit is stressing me out. I have an older sister who is an adult spoiled brat. She baits me and my other relatives with her rude and mean comments. She seeks out confrontation. I used to cope with this behavior by over eating. I got very fat. I had massive health problems from being fat. Today I am healthy and in shape. I got serious about eating right and exercising. Every day I stay on track with eating healthy and exercising. I am concerned I'll get knocked off when she goes after me with her spiteful mean behavior. At the same time I don't want to ruin things by standing my ground. I also don't want to go back to over eating to cope. In a perfect world my parents would tell her to leave if she can't behave. That's not going to happen. In their words it is easier to give in than fight. My gut is telling me to stand my ground and if she ends up leaving all sad and angry then that is her problem and her problem alone.

My mom and dad have been divorced since I was 2.Im 13 and my mom is trying to get custody of me which I am all for. My dad allows my stepmom to treat me however and say she's only doing it since she is stressed. I get it,work is stressful. I just don't understand how her daughter NEVER does anything wrong but if I take a nap after a tiring day Im the bad person.She has bashed me for how smart I am,how I look,and how much time i spend doing homework.My dad is at home majority of the day so he doesn't see how bad she treats me. He just hears what she tells him.A few days ago he was talking to me privately telling me I should just allow her to talk to my like that and if I'm even nicer then I am now shell respect me more.I have been nice and respectful for the 9 long years I've known her.I'm just over living in this household.When I got home my dad called me yelling because I didn't tell him my mom was coming to my science fair.Personally I didn't think it would have been that big of a deal.He was mad at me for texting her goodmorning and goodnight aswell.He told me that if I want to go live with her tell him.I said I'm not sure because I didn't want to hurt his feeling.He told me when he gets home I better have an answer and he'all make adjustments to kick me out the house if needed.He's one of those people whoverbally break you down and verballyabuse you. How can I nicely let him know I want to live with my mom without him getting upset

My daughter is very closed off from people, she's 7 years old and she is always alone during her play time at school. She wants to only have one friend and won't play with other girls. When the other kids say hi to her or try to talk to her she just ignores them. At her doctors appointments earlier she was asked to read the letters off the poster for a vision test and she began to cry because she didn't want to. When the doctor was asking her to take deep breaths she refused as well. But at home she's a totally different person. She never listens to the rules and is really rude to her siblings. She talks back, hits her brother and sister. Why is she like this and how do I help with this?

Okay, here's the thing... I have to get on a school bus at 6;08 every morning, and ride for an hour (I go to school really far away from home). The fact that I have to get up so early and all that doesn't even bother me.. I've been doing it since 3rd grade, and I'm in 8th grade now. But I have one horrible issue. I have a bus driver named Mrs. Williams, and she is such a bully. I just don't even know how to handle her. She yells at us for talking (we don't even talk loudly.. she says she just doesn't want to hear any children's voices), and basically she just likes to yell for everything.. This is the way i see it: I am not her child, she is not my mother, so she has no right to talk to me or anyone else in that manner. She works FOR US CHILDREN. She wouldn't even have a freaking job if it weren't for us. She has also grabbed my arm harshly at one point, and she made me sit down so that she could stand over me (in an intimidating manner) and yell at me because she thought I had dropped some sun-flower seeds on the floor, and I HADN'T. My own mother does not even speak to me that way. She has no right. My own principal agrees with me that this lady is crazy! He's just too much of a wimp to talk to her. So my question is, what should I do? Who should I talk to, in order to get help with this situation? How can I deal with her on my own? I don't want to disrespect this woman, although she disrepects me. So don't tell me to cuss her out or slap her or anything like that lol. I desperately want things to change.. I can't continue to start my day off (and end it) like this. I feel like she's breaking my spirit, and putting me in a bad mood everyday. Thanks for any answers, and sorry that this was so long.

To put it shortly, I fell asleep waiting to leave my house for the bus. We just moved to a new state so I have noone to give me a ride. My mom and dad are gone to work and I have no idea what to do. Call them or wait till they get home to tell them. This isn't the first time I've missed the bus, and they don't show it but I know they get mad.

Im 13 years old and my mom got married two years ago to a very cool guy. At least that's what it seemed like. When they got married I was living with my biological father and his wife in Arkansas. She was a nice stepmom but her kids were disrespectful adults that had no jobs so I got tired of living there. I got the opportunity to move with my mom and new stepdad. It's his house he has owned for many years. The first year him and I got along but now he is very toxic. I always dread the moment I hear him walk in the house. He drinks a ton and is very overweight. He is a partial psychopath as well I looked it up and he shows 9/15 signs of psychopathy. He is overall scary to be around a threat to me. He doesn't hit me but he gets verbally aggressive when he drinks. My mom tried to help him but nothing works for him. What should I do.

Weird maybe stupid question, but while your kid is under 18, can you make them marry someone/marry them off

My friend, (we ll call him Raphael, he s 15 years old) is under legal guardianship from his nearly senile grandma, who has frequent bouts of unreasonable anger. And his aunt, who also is unreasonably hostile towards Raphael. He s not a bad kid, he s just in a bad situation and the stress is making him do unwise things like tobacco. Anyway, I want to help him but I m not really sure how. We tried to make plans to hang out this weekend, but he lied about the rating content of a video game and was grounded. This has happened every time we have tried to hang out, where I put forth a lot of effort to try to make it happen, and he does something stupid that ruins it for both of us. and he has no other family to go to except for his insane grandma and aunt. What should he do, and what can I do to help?

My brother and I are pretty close. We are 9 years apart. He is 18 and I am 27. My brother went off to college and about a few months later, I found a job in his college and moved over there too. However to those thinking it was to be with him or to watch him, trust me it isn't. However, he has not been treating me well for a while. He is taking advantage of me. It seems that he is only nice to me when he needs something. What should I do? Should I stop speaking to him? Any advice would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

My parents have been married for a long time now. I read my mom's diary and found out she want's to get a divorce. The only thing that is keeping her from it, is because is would break us kids. So if and when they get a divorce, who do you live with?

Ok so me and new boyfriend have a child together (3 months old) I also have 2 other children of my own, and he has 1 other child of his own. His 1st child lives with my bfs mom. For Christmas he wants to see his 1st son with his mom (bfs mom) at his grandmas house. His grandma does not like my 1st 2 children. I hate going over there because whatever my children do it bugs her even if it s the same exact thing his other son is doing. I m very overprotective with my kids and feel uncomfortable being around her. I am not afraid to speak up either so I know there would be some kind of drama. I do not want to take my children over there. But they expect the baby that we both share to be there. I want to spend a normal Christmas at my own home with my children. My bf is always going to be a mamas boy and grandmas boy so he d be going there no matter what. (Which sucks because every holiday is with his family instead of the family he created). He s also not going to ask for his 1st child to spend it with us instead and then just go to grandmas after because he feels his mom and his son are so close he basically gave him to her. I dont want to seem mean and have no clue what to say. But i dont want to just sit around holding my kids so they don t get in trouble by his grandma. I want a fun christmas. Any suggestions?

First of all I am not from an English speaking country so pardon my English and Grammar I come from a rich family and I really hate the fact. My parents always keep spending money on useless things and do not abide the law and my brother, I hate that person. He and rest of my family always brag about them being rich and they are very rude to maids and other servants of the home, They always see them as inferiors and once my brother was caught for rash driving and he got out by using influence, Same goes for my parents. I seriously want to move away and live a modest life and become a police officer and arrest the scum like them and uphold the law but I am only 15.Is there anyway that I can use to legally move out and live somewhere else.

My dad will not fight for the right to see us and my mother will not let us see my dad so they're actually both at fault. Neither puts me and my siblings first rather they put their laziness or their bitterness first. And my mom just rubs it in that we can't see our dad.

I'm 13 and my dad is 51, my mom died when I was 6 and I'm really worried that my dad will die soon too. My friends have very young dads like 40-48

The problem here is that I'm trying to get homework done, but at the same time they're trying to be distracting with the constant nagging & yelling.... I'm in my mid 20s now, but moving out is not an option because I just don't have the financing for it. I've tried white noise and that's the only thing that is helping me with completing my assignments for school and tuning out their voices. Any other advice? *financial means to do it. It was about me using their computer. My own laptop is not connected to a printer, so I have to use theirs to print out my assignments. It wasn't a problem throughout the entire semester, but today they decided to blow it out of proportion. I'm mad at them. @pucman1961: I agree with you on SOME things, but you're wrong when you said that they don't want me to fail. I've spent 25 years with my parents. You don't live with them. Sometimes actions speak louder than words, and it seems like what their saying is very different from what their actual intentions are.

I'm 14 my mom died,it hasn't been so long since she did, my father always isn't there, he is always at work and I can't see him, but when I do, I can just see him with my other siblings, he looks at me in a way as if he hates me and he treats my other siblings better than when he treats me and my sister. I have no friends at all. My mom was like my best friend, we were very close, she did things that I didn't like but I knew that is was for my good. I was with her the moment she died, we were sitting together, the place suddenly became silent for a moment and... I saw my mother putting her hand on her chest taking and deep breath and she just died. I was so shocked and I tried to wake her up but then I knew that she died. I didn't really get a chance to tell her how much I loved her and how much she means to me, it wasn't been so long and every night I cry myself to sleep, I always remember her, she can't get out of my mind for even a moment. Some people from school while I'm walking they keep pointing at me and gossiping saying that I am the one who her mother is dead, when I look at them they walk away, but I hate it. I have nothing to live for... there is no meaning of my life now. I have no one now... I'm feeling so sad and I don't know what to do anymore.

i put an ad on craigs list, but i only got weird responses, like someone trying to sell me their goat, adam. help! sincerely, bean

My grandad is dying and if he has a week to live. The poor man is suffering! But the thing is, his wife don t want him coming home, he s in the hospital at the moment and she s creating an up roar with the family, about how he s not coming inside the door and he s so weak, he s dying of cancer and the doctors said he only has days to live. So basically my Mam got into a huge fight with my nan and my mam is really upset about it and also my mams sisters. Now my mam is really emotional about her dad dying in a few days and then her mother is ok and willing to turn her back on her husband when he s dying and his only wish is to go home. My mam is know starting to fight my sister and I for no reason. How can we sort this conflict My nan don't even want to be buried with him. my grandad knows nothing of this. there will be people caring for him when he's home there is a 3 health care assistants that will do separate shifts.

She makes us do ALL holidays with her family. If a sibling of hers or other family member offends her she forgives them. If an in-law offends her it takes her 5 years or more to forgive and some she has never forgiven. Her brother she just forgave after 4 months for an offense that it took her her 5 years to forgive an in-law for the exact same offense. The reason I care is because the in-laws therefore don't ask us around because they know my mother doesn't like them. On holidays I can't be two places at once so go where my parents are as I can't invite myself to an aunt's dinner. And I get obsessed that my Dad's side of the family will think less of me since they don't see me as much and I am my mother's offspring (my mother doesn't like the offspring of her enemies). So how do I get her to start treating in-laws as equals? On the in-laws end their only thing is understandably they see this bitterness in my mother and they are not necessarily fond of her therefore. My mother's bitterness is over stuff trivial when I was a baby (My Dad's father was an alcoholic and died when I was 6 so she labels the whole family alcoholic).

I am 37 and my mother still feels I do things I did at age 13. Not that she is mean about it but she nags and is terrified to tell me anything since I will repeat it to everyone (in reality I was 20 when I did that last). For example my uncle told me he his wife has breast cancer (early stage) and my mother was "now your going to tell everyone" when in reality I would have at age 13 but not as an adult. She also is afraid I will friend strangers on Facebook (behavior I may have done at age 13 if it was around then but not now). She wanted to make sure I shaved before going to a funeral with me last weekend (I knew to) and sometimes gets mad if I reach out to her foes in the family (as a kid I was banned from seeing any family members she was feuding with). The last one she has gotten better at. So why would my mother when I am 37 still feel I am 13? I don't want to fight back so I might be guilty of letting her but she is so sensitive that one criticism she takes as "I hate you and wish you were dead" when that is not at all what is said. Similarly when she would be with her Mom she shrunk to a 12 year old (her mother now deceased).

My eldest sibling has been dictating my life to being something he thinks I am, a manly man, ever since I missed out on attending a metrosexual program due to some unforseen events when I was supposed to attend when parents took him and teen siblings. He has since told lies about me that he does and also getting others to perceive me as a manly man (this is his identity, not mine) online and getting our little sister to take photos of me after he got her to hate me. I'm now bullied nearly all the time when I'm out in public, especially when my sister takes another photo of me on his behalf. I'm also ridiculed by others for being at certain places, dressing in a certain fashion, getting a styled cut, or even jut giving people the idea I'm not a manly man. I am a male who has always been the non-violent, self-conscious, introverted, non-rebellious type, who even had these ideas well before they got it and had me ostracized. I have also been telling lies about myself (Jan Harmond Dacion) being a convicted paedophile since the start of this year, but that was after he put me into this position.

For example he is a womanizer. He also has no remorse for stealing from our parents for drugs (though he is sober now). He has treated our mother like she is a dog. He rages and he hangs out with deadbeats which is how he got into drugs. So since my mother never forgave her siblings due to trivial personality differences as well as one being an alcoholic then should I refuse to forgive my brother unless he changes? I know spiritually I have to forgive but in terms of how I act I mean and how I talk about him (my mother likes to paint her enemies as bad to everyone she knows).

The daughter is graduating high school. The father is unable to show up at the event bc of work. He worked as a delivery. He has time to drive the mother & brother up to the event but he took off after we get inside the building. During the event, the daughter text the brother to called the father to come. When the father pick up the phone he was like I'm busy at work. The brother asked him why can't u just take 30min - 1h break? Or let the boss and customer know ahead of time that u will make up the time u lost after hours? After graduation, by the looked of the daughter eyes she was kinda piss. Also, I've heard that the father never saw his daughter Ina while cuz the daughter work part time, going to hs, & doing some college prep stuff

To start off, I'm 20 years old and I still get treated like a child. I can't even drive yet because my parents keep making me anxious about it. I feel terrified when I think of driving because I have a lot of anxiety. My parents do not let me go out, wear short dresses, spend money, or date. IT SUCKS SO F**kin badly. I can't even have privacy on my phone or talk to anyone. I just don't get it. If I break any rules, then I'll be in a huge and terrible situation. I'm not like the other girls. I don't really get the freedom other girls have. I could secretly break the rules, but there's no point in doing that because I'm not just spend my whole life hiding. I have a huge crush on this boy, he knows it because I admitted it. I think if my mom knew, she would kill me and my dad would go ballistic. This is why I don't tell them anything. I can't be with him anyways and the thought of just being so trapped kills me. I don't wanna get married either because I'm not even allowed to chose who I like. My previous fiancé was chosen, who I did not like at all. I don't know what to do.. my parents are not really understanding, they still are good to me though because we do go on a lot of family trips & eat good food.

So I've been eating healthy for a couple of months and I workout everyday and managed too drop 20 pounds but this pms is killing me I ate Breakfast and lunch and dinner but my stomach feels like a empty pit. Now I have managed too eat rice crispy treats and handfuls of nuts,strawberry and stir fry and this was after dinner. What can I do too stop this. I'm just scared that I have 7 days left of this I don't even wanna think about how much weight I can gain. Any Tips will work !

Okay let me just start from the beginning me and my mom been having problems ever since 2012. I got beat with things I never thought I would get beat with. I hid every bruise or cut that was on my body just so people at school friends, teachers, etc would see it. Everyday I feel like I shouldn't of been her son due to everything that happened in my life. last year I tried to stand up for myself because I got tired of always getting hurt but instead I just made matters worse and got hit early in the morning while getting ready for school and had to hide the bruises and the sadness that was building up more and more. I'm struggling to keep myself happy to this day. I just got in trouble for trying to dry my clothes for school tomorrow. I told her I just want to dry my clothes so I can go to school. She started screaming at me. I asked to stop screaming because it wasn't that serious. she slapped me I told her that doesn't hurt me anymore it just reminds me of things I try to forget. I walk to my room she followed me told me I need to learn respect. Now I know I was wrong for saying this but I told her you won't get respect until you learn how to respect me. I'm so depressed right now I'm trying my best not to cry because it doesn't do me any good to do it. I just hate that I make her life so bad still.

I just turned 17 and I am a male the problem is my parents are super strict they won't ever let me leave the house I don't even have any friends anymore because every time I Make plans my parents never let me leave this has always been a problem and I'm tired of it my parents always use the same excuse they think I'm going to get hurt or get into trouble just because my siblings would always get Into trouble so they think I will I am the youngest by the way I am always alone! It really makes me feel depressed I've had so many opportunities to make new friends or go out but I can't I've missed out on so much it sucks seeing everyone my age even younger going out with friends having a girlfriend while I'm just sitting at home wasting time I don't know what to do anymore it is really killing me what do I do?

I'm 16. My father married another woman about five years ago, he is still married to my mother. He destroyed our family we never happy not to mention that woman is a *****. He is also not a very nice person and I hate him. What should I do

These two always stopping me from getting a job & I need money for a car . My stepdad likes to know everything that we do in the house, he would go to work then come early and just stare at Me when am sitting down or washing the dishes . Also he hugged me several times like couples do arms around waist and shoulder . and I hate that **** I get discussed..but when my mom is around he would only kiss me on my forehead & gives me a regular hug . I told him twice to not touch me But he never listens . I am just trying to get away from this house I feel like a useless person I'm not allowed to do anything in this house beside continue my college classes . So My sister had told me that I can go and live with her since their always looking for people at her job Plz give me a suggestions It's like I get depressed staying in this house

Well I live with my mom in the middle of the city (kinda bad area). But recently I got a new job at Studio Movie Grill which was a GREAT area with AWSOME people. But every now and then my mom would say "You're going to only work weekends... and if I see anything below a 70, I'm going to make you quit for good". She's just saying that just for an excuse for no apparent reason. She always says **** like "Everyone has so many rewards but you don't have nothing " or "So and so just got a scholarship. But you got nothing like always. Me grades are really improving but I have one 70 for AP Psychology "Even the teacher said he knows nothing about it. The school just forced him to teach it. If my mom makes me quit, should I leave to shoe her that she caused this?

When it's snows over here, it's a miracle and every kid loves it (including me), but my parents won't let me go out. There's only a bit of snow but I still want to go out. My parents say that it's too cold, but I could just grab my gloves and wear a few layers and It'll be fine, right? How do I convince them?

Okay, so I just wanna know if I m doing right. Phase 1: Every time my mother buys a new phone, she will give it to me and my sibling after she gets tired of it and buys a new phone. This happens alternatively(example: phone 1 is mine, phone 2 for my sibling, phone 3 is mine and so on. Phase 2: My sibling took home a dog, and the dog is her property, like she s the one in charge of feeding, takin out the poop, bathing the dog etc. And then out of nowhere her dog ate my earphones. So my mother told me to get the earphones from her current phone because she doesn t use earphones(my mother s current phone is my siblings future phone). So did I do right thing to get the earphones because my sibling s dog ate mine? It s a simple question but my sibling is mad at me, like wat.

My grandparents on both sides of the family are around 5 6. I got 4 uncles that are 5 11 - 6 2, and another one that s 5 8. What do you think will be my height as an adult? Will I continue to grow?
