Family: Question: I didn't like my Christmas present my mom gave me?

Question: I didn't like my Christmas present my mom gave me?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 02:08 PM PST

I don't like my mom's present because it feels out of my character. It was something i would never wear, the colors were off and i usually wear certain colors. I also feel that she got the present because she just wanted to check that off her list of getting people presents instead of thinking of the person if they would like it or not. It's like she didn't knew me when she does. I could of settled with a pattern duct tape or something pink anything that i would like. I even told her i what i wanted two months ago. It was either a sewing machine or this nice Disney sweater that i saw online for like 18 bucks, and i told her if she couldn't get me what i wanted then she shouldn't get me anything at all because i wanted to avoid problems on Christmas because i get really picky and i don't to hurt no one's feelings when i am blunt about it. And honestly it did bothered me that she got me something that i don't like instead of not getting me anything at all (weird i know) I would expect my aunt and uncles would do this but not my mom. Well anyways i was pretty upset and i told her how i felt and she got bothered almost as if i hurt her feelings. I feel super bad about it but i didn't want to lie, i hate lying especially on how i feel. Maybe i should of said it differently but now my family thinks i am the most selfish, ungrateful, person in the world for telling my mom not get me anything just to save her the trouble and that i don't like the present she gave me.

Question: Do I have a right to feel some type of way?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 01:18 PM PST

My parents bought a car and gave it to my younger brother who is a senior in high school this year and lives about 5 minutes walking distance from the house. He gets poor grades, always out doing bad things with his friends, getting in trouble in school. Not only did they get a car they are paying the car note and insurance and also talking about paying his tuition once he attends college. I go to school 4 hours away, I've been on the deans list every semester, I'm on the pathway to be a doctor, I coupon to provide for my family they have all the essentials they need, I initially did it because I was a struggling student with no help what so ever from my parents. I feel like I do so much for everyone and get nothing in return not even a small amount of help to get on my feet. My dad drives around in a brand new Audi my mom just remodeled the entire house and no one could ever help me? I truly feel like they can't wait for me to be a doctor to ask me for money... It doesn't help that I've had to take so many unpaid internships either..I'm not lazy. I'm in class for 12 hours a day and then have to do homework and studying and still find time to tutor to make money. I work really really really hard. I want to be a doctor more than anything in this world.. but I feel like everyone wants repayment after my success but never invested in me...

Question: My aunt is abusive to her daughter. Were my parents right to have the daughter over therefore for Christmas even though the aunt didn't come?

Question: Is my boyfriend wrong or am I?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:39 PM PST

He got a job an hour away from where our parents live. We used to live with them. Since he got the job, we moved halfway. It's a 30 minute drive for me to work now and him too. I am sad about the move because I am very close with my family. He thinks I'm just being a child and that I don't want to leave my family ever. I just didn't want to move that far. I wouldn't of minded moving out but still living in the same city. He thinks it's just that I don't want to grow up. What do u think.

Question: I want to live in a rural area so bad? City girl?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:37 PM PST

My cousin lives in the country, in this cute little small town like it was straight out of the Wild West. I went to visit her this summer and it was the most amazing thing ever. She has stars and all of these animals and is a reality good horse rider. She spends her Summer's showing animals and everyone talks about how good she is with it. Her family spends a lot of time together and everyone is really neighborly. On the other hand I live in NYC. My parents are normally too busy with their banking jobs to care about me. I spend my time shopping or partying but after hanging out with my cousin I feel empty. I want to live in the country so bad I cry at night. All of my city friends think I'm stupid, but has anyone else felt this way? What should I do???

Question: I feel so guilty :( Car problems?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:26 PM PST

I feel so guilty and im becoming upset. I want to tell my dad but I dont want to upset him and make him think i dont appreciate the gift because i scratched it already. what do i do?!

Question: Help? Video Games- Reading rules.?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:06 PM PST

My house rules are unfair. I love playing video games and my parents only let me play 1 hour. They want me to read, but they watch more tv than I play and read less than me! How can I compromise with my parents?

ok. I'm going to the Cayman Islands for a week with my stepmom's very bossy and insanely religious family tomorrow. my sister and I are some of the youngest kids there (we're 15 and 12) and the only kid closest to our age is an 8 year old we hang out with. her family always makes us do a bunch of unnecessary chores and treats us like 8 years olds too. also, we had to say goodbye to our mom for the week and we miss her so so much. how can we deal with missing her and dealing with our crazy family for a week!!

Question: How to keep a positive attitude and not miss my family on vacation?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 11:24 AM PST

I'm going to the Cayman Islands tomorrow with my dad and I just said goodbye to my mom for a whole week. I'm very close to my mom and I'm really gonna miss her, even though we said we'd talk every day. It's not gonna feel like Christmas there and the day after I get back, school starts up again. Every time I even listen to Christmas music I start to cry... and I know I sound spoiled for not wanting to go to Cayman but it's not like that. I'm just gonna be so far..how can I keep a positive attitude and not be sad on vacation ??

Question: How do you get custody of a child that you have no legal or biological ties to?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 11:15 AM PST

I have a 5 month old niece that is biologically my brothers kid, Zoey. She has an older sister that is 2 years older than her with a different father, Chloe. The mother of both these girls is 18 and has some mental disabilities. She was living with her drug obsessed mother in her cockroach infested home until about a month ago when my brother helped get her and the girls out of that environment. My brother is in guardianship through clay county at the moment. Neither of them know how to parent these children. My brother is trying to actively learn and be a good dad to them but they can t seem to get past the clash in disabilities and the girls are suffering as a result. They neither one can drive so my mom just took them back to Farmington, MO where they live. We live in KCMO so we are 5 hours away and unable to help take care of them. My question is if my mom or myself tried to get custody of the girls would we be able to get custody of Chloe because they are sisters. We don t want to separate them even if they are to young to know who each other is.

Question: Ageing father - won't & can't take care of himself, my brother & I need to force his hand. How?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 11:13 AM PST

I'm in So. California & my brother lives about 30 miles away, dad lives about an hour from us. Our dad is 87 years old & is a VERY stubborn man. He recently had his utilities shut off, his car is broken down & he can't afford to fix it. When my brother & I were just kids, my father is a REALLY bad driver, but now with his bad hearing & eyesight, he's a danger on the road. Anyway, he bought (about 7 years ago) a modular home & refuses to move. He's VERY bad with money, when my mom was alive she managed the finances that were rock solid, but after she died my dad sold everything & lived like a king until all the money was squandered. So now, I think it's in his best interest to move in to a senior care facility so he is properly looked after & isn't suffering anymore & putting himself in danger. He's had 2 hip replacement surgeries as well & can't move well enough to do some simple things. He has fallen many times & couldn't get up. So, what do my brother & I need to do to force him to go to a care facility, I'm guessing go through the legal system to be granted legal guardianship, also to contact the social security office to have his social security checks sent to either my brother or I, to pay a monthly fee for a senior care facility for him to move in to. Lastly, won't my father be entitled to drawing on my mom's social security (she died 25 years ago)? If yes, will he be entitled to back pay, since he never drew on hers? Is it too late to draw on hers now?

Question: In desperate need for some advice or ideas?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 11:13 AM PST

I have 4 children, aged 8, 6, 5 and 7 months. My eldest has chronic kidney failure and is very sick in hospital. My youngest was born 2.5 months premature, making her adjusted age only 4.5 months. This past week I've been tearing my hair out trying to be in so many places at once. My eldest wants me with her 24/7, she's frightened and this is understandable. My youngest is nursing and needs to be doing this often as she's still underweight. I have been leaving her during the day and have noticed she's only drinking the bare minimum from her bottle. I come home around 6pm and she's starving, wanting to nurse all night to make up for what she's missed during the day. Quite honestly I feel awful having to leave either one of them but feel like I am now in a position that I have to choose between them. My husband works 12 hours per day to keep up with the medical bills of our eldest, my parents don't live in the country. I have about 4 nannies/babysitters on rotation to take care of whichever children I can't be with. This isn't working and I'm beyond stressed. I am aware that it's still Christmas Day in a few countries but am hoping there are still some lovely people online to help me out with some suggestions on a better method to handle this.

Question: What should I do with situation and they are always laughing at me. I haven't done nothing to them?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 11:11 AM PST

What should I do about my cousin she is 15 and she has revealed all my personal secrets and conversations I have had with my aunt to my neighbors and my enemies. Like she reveled the fact I went to a psychic and she said I needed a cleansing which I didn't believe. She also has told my neighbors all my life events like when I have a boyfriend. In addition, she told my neighbors how I was scared of a neighbor that was saying she wanted to beat me up. She also reveled that I was talking bad about my neighbor because my neighbor was talking bad about me.I feel that I can't have any conversation with my aunt because she reveals everything to my neighbors or enemies.When I walk down the street in my neighborhood everyone starts laughing at me. I love my aunt and she is important in my life. I have told my aunt about my cousin but she doesn't believe it. When my aunt asked my cousin about her disclosing my personal life she denied it. On Christmas my aunt asked her to choose a sweater for me and she choose the ugliest sweater for a Christmas present on purpose. I don't know what to do because I care about my aunt and my mom talks to her everyday. My cousin also laughs at me everytime she sees me without me even doing anything funny, she laughs at what she is doing by revealing all my secrets.

Question: My mom became a porn star?

Question: I am a 34 year old male virgin?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 10:06 AM PST

I have learned the basics of socialization but I struggled with socialization and was a very innocent natured child and you man. I have always had a curious mind and have had my thoughts scattered. I was also abused as a child and a young man by my dad (in many ways, but the emotional abuse was the worse) and about 18 months ago I wrote him off and we are estranged. Hindsight is 20/20: I never would have guessed, but my life has come together in many aspects since I got out of the toxic relationship with my dad. Crazy as it may sound, it has only been recently that the fact that I am still a virgin is really hitting me. Hitting me in the sense that I hate being a virgin and that I finally understand about hooking up. What I am asking: Resources on having intercourse for the first time. YouTube videos have helped with putting on a condom, foreplay etc. What are some resources for my first time? I am respectfully asking for sincere and honest advice so I would appreciate sincere and honest answers. Random story about my dad: When I was 21 I met him and my mom for lunch at a restaurant. My dad told me of how my female room mate called him back to give him **** for calling because "she wanted to spend time with her BF and he interrupted it". I didn't get what it was about and my parents rolled their eyes and giggled at me. IMHO a respectful sex talk from dad would have been appropriate.

Question: I hate my life. Please help?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 08:48 AM PST

This semester I moved away for college, everything was great for a couple weeks. My parents seperanted for a while, and then they started calling me telling me about each other. I just hated hearing about their problems. I really don't have many friends in college, I plan on joining a sorority. But now that I'm home for the holidays, everything sucks. I constantly am fighting with my mom, she complains about money problems. And everything has been falling apart. I feel like these couple of months have been the worst, and I just want to be happy... but I feel like my family won't even help.

Question: Christmas Without My Son?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 08:36 AM PST

When my son was in fourth grade, a substitute teacher through a textbook at him for misbehaving in class. My ex-wife, Marie, took the teacher to court and won the case. My son got $10, 000 in the lawsuit but was not allowed to touch the cash until his 18th birthday. Well, on July 17 of this year, my son turned 18. I purchased a computer as a gift for graduation. I also gave him cash for his birthday. After getting his money from the lawsuit, plus my two gifts in July, my son disappeared. My ex-wife should encourage Pedro (my son ) to call or text me but she always wanted to separate the two of us. So, in conclusion, works full-time at McDonald's, has money from the lawsuit and as a result, I have become nonexistent in his life. It hurts a lot but at 18, there is nothing I can do. He doesn't reply to my text messages and ignores my occasional phone calls. My son not only decided to stay away from me but also from my family. I have a hole in my heart. My ex-wife who is a dedicated churchgoer should step into the equation and solve the problem but knowing Marie as well as I do, she is having a blast with this separation. What do you say?

Question: Is it wrong for me to be disappointed about my Christmas presents?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 08:20 AM PST

I'm fourteen and I have 3 brothers they are 20, 17 , and 5. Naturally I expected that my baby brother would get the most since he is a kid. But I expected a lot of more from my gifts. My two older brothers don't help out around the house and just go wherever they want and they don't have jobs so they are constantly asking my parents for things. Meanwhile I am always the babysitter for my baby brother and do all of the tasks that my parents ask me to do 24/7. I don't ever ask my parents for money so I expected to get a little more this Christmas since I've been helping out so much. I even filled shopping carts for my favorite stores up and told them what I liked. I ended up only getting 2 things I asked for and nothing I asked for was expensive either. I came into Christmas happy with high hopes and was surprised by how it actually went. I am so grateful for what I got but I feel like my parents spent most of their money on everyone else. What makes me more sad is that one of the shoes I asked for I didn't get but my dad bought my mom similar ones. I know that I sound like a brat. Is it wrong for me to feel like this?

Question: I'm 14 years old, school is NOT for me?! No self-esteem?!?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 08:08 AM PST

Hi, I'm 14 years old and I'm an 8th grader, I feel like school is not for me? I'm not being bullied and I have friends but teachers are so scary and they never teach me anything. I can't understand and my country fails to update its books. I know NOTHING about maths and my math teacher calls me a retard for it. I'm living in an Arabic country and I'm an atheist and I only like studying subjects that make sense, I take care of English and IT mostly as these are the things that people use in life really. Also, my dad says that my 3 older brothers are successful and I as the youngest kid, I am retarded and I won't go anywhere in life. He says that everyday and he said it today in a really harsh way and now I'm being bullied by the whole house and I can't deal with it, it makes me sick! And don't even say "call the police", I can't! Law is based off a religion here and in the religion which is Islam it says parents have every right to assault their children both verbally and physically and can even kill them!!!! My parents work everyday on killing my self esteem without even noticing and I'm sick of it! I have too many problems going on and I wanna end it! If I'm not a college graduate here then I'm pretty much trash and I can't quit school cause it requires parental permission. I have dreams of becoming a rapper since I always had a passion for music but my parents won't provide any support and will bring me down and make fun of me. Help please!!!

Question: How can cousins have the same last name?

My grandfather has a married cousin with the same last name as him

Question: Why does my dad's voice piss me off so much?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 07:59 AM PST

It hasn't always been this way, but recently certain sounds my dad makes with his voice while I talk to him on the phone makes my skin crawl and creeps me out. He doesn't seem to make these noises as much in person, but on the phone they sound like assaults on my senses. He makes this moan-like sound while breathing in when he's pausing or about to say something. I don't know why it sounds so sexual and inappropriate to me. I wish I was going crazy because the thought of my dad purposely making sexual grunting noises to his daughter is the creepiest thing in the world to come to terms with. I've had a rocky past with him, and he molested my older brother when my brother was younger. Also, without fail, my dad also stares at my breasts for a long time whenever I'm not wearing something loose to hide the shape of my breasts. Maybe if he's never done these things in the past I wouldn't be so hypersensitive to the noises he's making? Help, I'm going crazy :( I don't live with him but he calls me often, and he ALWAYS makes the moan-like sound whenever he pauses or is about to say something. How do I deal with this? If it's not actually sexual, I would sound like the weirdo for saying anything about it. I'm the only one in the family my dad talks to. My parents are divorced and completely estranged from each other. Also, my brother is schizophrenic and homeless and I don't talk to him at all.

Question: Dad's ruined Christmas again and he won't even apologise?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 07:27 AM PST

This is the the third consecutive Christmas that my dad has ruined. In 2014, he ruined Christmas by having a go at her for getting the wrong colour scarf. He wanted a grey scarf but she got him a brown scarf. He stayed in his room the entire day after this particular incident. In 2015, he ruined Christmas again the day before Christmas Day. He burnt the mince pies he was making. He was really angry. He threw them all across the kitchen and when mum came to investigate, he was cursing her and kept blaming her for it. He was in such a bad mood, he stayed in his room until about 9pm on Boxing Day. This year, he ruined Christmas by cooking the turkey wrong. We put him on cooking the turkey duty. When we got it, the turkey was still uncooked in the middle. Dad was angry and blamed me and my mum for it, even though we repeatedly told him what to do and how long to do everything for. He threw the turkey across the room and stormed upstairs. Mum followed him afterwards and demanded an apology from him, but all he said was "f**k off". That's 3 Christmases in a row ruined. What should I do? In the 2014 bit, "having a go at her" means "having a go at my mum for her getting the wrong colour scarf".

Question: How to get condoms...?

Hello everyone. My name is Fin and I am 17. I live with my mother and sister, and I feel I am the point I should be safe and get some condoms, but where I live you must be 18 to purchase. I am planning to ask my mom, but I don't have a clue how to go about it...she has always seen me as her innocent gay son. But I would rather be safe and have some at this age than not be safe and catch something from my boyfriend... Can anyone help me figure out how to ask her?

Question: How to deal with arab family?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:59 AM PST

I am 19 years old, and I have decided to take of my headscarf. I have noticed that everyone keeps telling me what to wear. Although I am moving out next year, It feels like I will lead a double life. They expect me to cover up around family, everytime I visit other relatives they tell me why are you wearing jeans, or why do you have your hair uncovered. Sometimes, I wish everyone could just focus on their own relationship with God and let me be alone. I am an adult, but they are clearly treating me like a child when they tell me what to wear. How can I make them change?

Question: Neighbors house is getting robbed?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:26 AM PST

I'm a man in my 50's. My next door neighbors house is getting robbed. Just got up a few minutes ago as banging on their screen porch got me up. They have 2 teens so it is not like a young child needs to be protected. They're old enough. Don't think anyone else is home except for the teens. I saw them walk to the mailbox an hour ago before this. I see 2 women and 1 man on their porch hitting at the door and window trying to get inside. Legally, I don't have to do anything, right?

Question: What can i do if my mom and her boyfriend always fight?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:14 AM PST

Mom and her boyfriend have been toegether for atleast 8 to 9 months and today is Christmas and im stuck in my room listening to them fight. Its heart wrenching to be here stuck in my bedroom listening to mom crying and her boyfriend not caring. He promised my mom that he would never go out without her or without her concert but it has been more than 5 times that he has left and has arrived our home with that nasty liquor smell. Please help.

Question: Why are they like this?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:13 AM PST

Today at Christmas lunch, I am NOT going to allow my neice(17) and my nephew(19) to eat anything. I am go to allow my son(15) my daughter(18) and my older neice(24) to eat though. I am not allowing my 17 year old neice or my 19 year old nephew to eat. I am not allowing them because my neice weighs 126 pounds she has a size 26 waist and she is 5 foot 7 and because my nephew weighs 130 pounds he has a size 28 waist and he is 5 foot 6. Obviously that is very overweight for their heights. I am not allowing them to eat at all with the rest of the family today. I will yell and make a big scene in front of everyone if they try to. How do I do this without being rude?

Question: What should I do? My parents are mean and abusive! I can't handle this anymore!?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:08 AM PST

That's it. I honestly cannot deal with this anymore. I am starting to feel like my parents are two psychopaths who need SERIOUS mental health. Especially my mom. My parents, who are SUPPOSED TO BE the closest and most important people in my live are physically abusing me. Today I told my mom to leave my room because I was trying to concentrate on an essay and she got so mad at me that she punched me 4 times on the arm and scratched my whole hand and kicked my legs and butt a few times. It's not funny - it really hurt. Other than this, I barely ever talk to my dad. If you say ONE thing to him he will scream his head off and you can't even communicate with him in a normal tone. I remember around a year ago when I did something wrong and my father came in my room when he got back from work, I was on my bed and he picked my legs up and super hard he started punching me over and over again around 50 times in total and I was left bruised everywhere. Then another time when my mom was mad at me, she hit me everywhere, pulled my hair, did everything. My whole body including my face was bruised and I couldn't hit her back. I just lay there and felt the pain and begged her to stop. This continues a lot in my family and I have no one to speak about it too. I don't have friends which I can trust well enough and my school doesn't have councilors and I do not want the school to know about this happening to me. I have NO ONE. I am literally SCARED of my parents. Help!

Question: I think about what my extended family thinks too much. How do i get a sense of privacy?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 06:03 AM PST

When i was 13 i sat in class at school and was oberwhelmed with the expextaion and duty to obey my families religious or personel view. I ctually prayed to never see them again. 26 now and looking back at how insecure i am around someone them kills me. After failures and pain i did make amends with the one member that seem to be out to get me. But as one door opens another closes. I just feel this weirdd sense of negative judgemnet and unapproval from some and the idea of that just makes me go Looney. I have a great family. Just so scared to live a normal life cause i feel so watched. I got privacy sense im an adult but i feel like im connected to people that probably want nothing to do with me but i have to be involved...holy cow my brain is crazy

Question: I don't understand why do some parents get rid of their kid's stuff without even asking them first?What is there reason for doing that?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 05:36 AM PST

Now before we begin, let me make one thing clear. I didn't move out. I am still living with my parents. I had some old toys and childhood keepsakes that were stored in the basement. One day, I went downstairs to the basement to search for my stuff and found out that all of stuff from my childhood are all gone! When I ask my dad about it, He just simply said, 'welll I thought you don't wan't it anymore, so I donated it to the thrift store. He just assume that I didn't want the stuff anymore without even asking me. If he doesn't want my stuff to be in his basement, he could've just tell me about it, I'm more than willing to put my stuff back into my living room. He didn't even bother to ask me about it. I really don't understand why does he do that? I was quite shocked by this because he had never done such a thing like that before. In the past, he rarely even goes through my stuff and throw my things away without asking me. My dad is a short tempered man, I was afraid to ask him for an explanation. So I asked my mom to do it for me. When my mother confronted my dad about it, he get angry, defensive and ignores her. He doesn't even bother to give any explanation.

Question: How do you handle a teenage step daughter that hates you because she thinks you are taking her place ?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 05:35 AM PST

No matter how hard I try to get along with her she refuses to get along. She has lied on me trying to get me in trouble and curses me and calls me names. Her dad tells her not to do that but she continues. At this point should I just step away and let her biological parents deal with her and stay out of it to keep peace between everyone ?

Question: Ladies would you do this?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 05:26 AM PST

I will be leaving soon to go to my parents for Christmas. I have a 1 hour drive so since I am going to be inside my parents house all day I am going barefoot and not going to bring my shoes.

Question: Should I feel bad/guilty/ashamed if my mother offer to help me by paying my credit card bill?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 05:01 AM PST

Even though I have a somewhat of a decent job and I am able to pay off my credit card bill, my mother sometimes offers to help me out. But sometimes I intend to feel a little bad/guilty/ashamed mostly because of me being a male who is in his mid 20's. I do tell myself that it is okay to allow for help of I really need it, yet my pride still get in my way.

Question: How do I get over missing my Dad. He is an alcoholic and I can't see him for Christmas because of my Mom holding me back?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 04:15 AM PST

My Mom says she is protecting me but I think she is just hurting me.

Question: Why does my family ALWAYS fight around and on Christmas...help please!?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 04:12 AM PST

I'm 21 and I live with my mom, sister, and grandmother. It seems like my grandmother ALWAYS has to pick a fight and cause a huge, heated argument that can be violent. It's over small, personal family matters that get blown into HUGE fights. My grandma is 70 years old and my mom is 48 and yesterday on Christmas Eve they fought over the fact that my gma's car isn't reliable enough to drive and see my cousins for Christmas. It got to the point where my grandma lost control and raised her arm to try and strike my mom! She screamed things like "I'm your mother! You don't talk to me like that!" and "I'm going to die! And when I do you'll be sorry!!!" And my mom yells "SHUT UP! SHUT UP BEFORE I KILL MYSELF!" Dramatic things like that. It really upsets me because they're really causing darkness and depression around what's supposed to be a joyful, loving time of year. As a result of the fight, my grandma left last night in her car. There's a huge tension in the air. I'm cooped up in my room, my sister is in hers, and my mom and grandma aren't speaking. My grandma causes fights out of NOWHERE and it's like we're destined to fight on Christmas, no matter what. Am I the only one whose family fights on holidays?

Question: My Dad is drunk this morning. Should I bother waking him up for when we open Christmas presents or just let him stay asleep?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 04:00 AM PST

It is my Mom, 3 siblings, two siblings in-law, and two grandsons (my nephews) here. One sister wouldn't come due to Dad's drinking (she is going to in-laws with her 4 kids and husband).

Question: My older sister is cheating on her husband, what should I or shouldn't I do?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 03:57 AM PST

She has a son about 2 years old. She was in a relationship with his husband for about a decade. Her bastard of a partner in cheating is about a decade younger than her, barely legal. We are distant, she was never my favorite sibling. I have been staying with her for this couple of week because of my work. At first I thought she was being a tease with the younger man(******* two years younger than me), just harmless fun... Then I learned from my mother that she was having an affair and I am absolutely DISGUSTED(!). I was so ******* naive! It is like everything just fell into a giant ******* ****** up picture that makes my lips curl in disgust just thinking about it as I consider her husband to be an older brother. The moment I learnt about it I refused to believe it until my other older sister(I am the youngest) told me that it was the truth... My mind blanked as every ******* thing that I did not get and ignored exploded into focus and I just...****. The ******* result is my Mind ******* up and all I could utter being "****... Just ****... ****... God Almighty- ****... This is- ****" and going on and on. I am not particularly good with religion but I have my own faith for the being up there and the thing I put above all in any relationship is loyalty and the fact that my own sister, my own flesh and blood did, is still ******* doing this to her husband, the man I call brother? ****, just simply ****. Also a bigger **** is to the fact I have to look them in the eye the curse word is f**k or something that rhymes with custard

Question: My brother suddenly doesnt want to share bed with me anymore?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 03:40 AM PST

We always shared room and bed together with my brother, and we never had any big argue about it, just playful kicking each other off the bed. But now he suddenly says he doesnt want to share bed with me anymore, just out of nowhere. I feel safe and secure when he is there, i dont want him to leave. I know that a lot of sisters argue with their brothers but we 2 almost never argue or anything. Why does he suddenly want to leave me Do you think he will sleep with me again after he is through puberty?

Question: How should I deal with my EXTREMELY mean father?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 03:28 AM PST

Question: How do I get through my heart today that I have a dad but my mom won't let me see for Christmas.?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 03:11 AM PST

I just woke up and feel sad but I really want to have a good day. My mom abuses me by painting my dad in the bath light regularly. My dad didn't persevere as much as he should and so I don't get to see him till January and that's not Christmas despite the lies my mom tells me that it is

Question: I woke up and my parents have left and there are no presents out what do I tell my two younger siblings who believe in Santa?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 03:08 AM PST

There are no gaps in Santa was supposed to come. My parents had an argument about money last night and left. My mom went to sleep at my grandparents no idea where my dad is my guess is he was drinking. I'm 15 and my aunt is here but I have no idea why there's no gifts and what to tell the younger siblings. My aunt will just ask your parents

Question: I feel so separated from my family, all my siblings make fun of me and my mom never listens. And my dad hardly cares.I feel so hated by them?

Question: My sister thinks i want to rape her?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 01:44 AM PST

One of our neighbours son raped his sister about 2 weeks ago, horrible how someone can do that to his own younger sister. But at least he got arrested. But now my sister always look at me with a frightened look, and when i try to hug her, or even talk to her, she either makes some excuse to leave or just straight up says please dont rape me and covers her face. I love my sister and i would never do anything so cruel to her, how can i show her that she is safe and that i would never do such a thing? Mark well yes, he was our neighbour he was both mine and her friend, but he wasnt like acting anyhow diffirent then other boys, i still cant belive he would do something like that. And vittoro im not doing anything, she is just scared of me. I guess she now thinks all brothers are rapists just because she witnessed this Im 16 and my sister is 14. But she is very childish for her age (not that its a bad thing, better then one of the facebook addicts in my opinion).

Question: Where do grandmothers hang out?

Question: Should I be honest or not?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:57 AM PST

Okay so like idk I really wanna vape bc it looks badass and I'm about to buy some vape stuff with my Christmas money. I'm 14 and idk if i should just get it and risk my mom getting mad at me for buying vape stuff and than she confiscates it or should I ask her and have her be suspicious of me getting it and make it harder for me to buy. I'm not gonna get any nicotine in it and either way I'm going to get it so what should I do? My mom is pretty cool, she doesn't vape herself tho

Question: Me and my mum are in a huge fight, please help me :(?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:50 AM PST

What do I do!? 😭 I told my mum that I was mad because she cares more about my preemie little sister who's in the hospital more than me and my brother. She wasn't home at all today even though it was Christmas and she didn't get me any presents either. I told her this and she got really upset and now doesn't want to speak to me. I'm really sad because I miss my mum so much, shes never home anymore because she's always at the hospital. We used to be so close but since my sister was born 8 weeks ago we haven't spent any time together or even talked about things other than the baby. My dad is here but it's not the same, I just want my mum 😭 what can I do to get my mum back?? i am 11 why does missing my mum make me a brat :( :(

Question: Was my dad right to do this? Is it abuse or is this normal?

Posted: 25 Dec 2016 12:30 AM PST

We were at a Christmas party with our family and at the end of the night everyone was leaving. My mom, sister, and I wanted to leave but my dad was drunk again. We waited for him outside in the car for a long time and he wouldn t come. My sister was crying and my mom was about to start too. I went inside to get him but he wouldn t leave. I told him not to sit down I pulled his arm out the door and shuved him a little towards the door (I know I shouldn t have but he s a bad drunk) he was finally leaving. Outside he yelled at me for never to do that again and he started cussing at me. He called me a son of a *****, who do you think you are, and idiotic. I was going to drive us home and he said your not driving my car and grabbed my arm and tried to pull me out of the seat. He then slammed the door and went back inside and we left him. We he right to do that?!?!

Question: I'll be 18 in 3 months, my plans.... can I move out?

Posted: 24 Dec 2016 11:49 PM PST

My mom has always been a big supporter with me. I was born with Cystic Fibrosis. She's always made sure I've gotten the medicines I need, and took me to all my doctors appts. This past whole year me and her have been going head on with each other. I'm never home anymore. I'm 17, a senior, fixing to graduate in about 4 months. I'll be 18 on April 20th. I'm so tired of living with my parents. I'm still treated like I'm 12. I have a boyfriend that i have known since pre k. We have been dating for almost a year and he supports me and my decisions unlike my parents. I think my parents are just jealous and upset that I'm growing up, but I'm not giving home issues out.... I want to go to a community college in my town for a little while and then go to a univ. and finish RN school there. My boyfriends family LOVES me and I'm included in everything. Our relationship started out horrible. My mom has never been a big fan of him.... (she's very rasicist and judgmental) I see myself with him. When I turn 18, we're wanting to start off where he lives now and live in a 1 bedroom apartment, 1 bath, kitchen and living room until we can save up for something bigger... maybe even build property with his other family in a town and all help each other.

Question: What can I do to help my little brother, who is going downhill?

Posted: 24 Dec 2016 11:46 PM PST

My little brother is 15, lives with his mom and step-dad, and apparently has dropped out of school, hangs out with his friends, smokes weed, gets tattoos, and his parents do not care about it. Our dad, who has not seen him in years, does not care to talk to him. I have tried talking to him through facebook, but he deletes me. The only person he "talks to" is our mutual sister, who has told me all of these things. He's my brother. I don't know what to do to help him. Every time I have reached out to him he ignores me. I have seen him once in the last 3 years, and he looked sort of happy. I gave him a hug and told him I loved and missed him. Then, I never saw him again. I don't know what to do. I can't get my dad to talk to him, my brother to talk to our dad, or me. My sister says he will not talk to her either, but his facebook wall talks about ******* bitches, smoking weed, and gangster ****. He's 15. How do I help him?
