She seems to expect me to hate my Dad as when I was a kid she pushed her hatred for him on me. I refuse but I don't like the conflict with her.

It doesn't count as Christmas I feel if I don't have both sides of the family there and since I can't see my dad I can't see his family till spring. My mom makes it worse by talking to all of her friends and family about the divorce nonstop and sometimes even to me.

Ok well I am oh Hispanic origin and I was born in Texas. It's always just been me my mom my brother and sister. Growing up I was bullied a lot even since I moved to the Pearland area when I was 6. Ever since I started that first day of school till that last moment in high school. Growing up ,y brother used to hit me and I would tell my mom and she never did anything about it. He doesn't do it anymore. The thing I hate about my family is that they love the drama. They snitch anything and everything to anyone. I can't even do anything before half my family finds out about it. The other day my mom and my sister ganged up against me to bully me. All because me and my twin brother still live at home. And because everythime my mom makes a mess she blames it on me. I'm always at work I practically live at work and I'm never home except after work and on weekends I try not to be there. I always help my mom clean and pay her bills. But just because I brought a friend over my mom started attacking me as well as my sister who was visiting. I've been depressed before and I've had suicidal thoughts in the past even though I'm doing better. I picked up the hobby of music and I play the piano and trombone and that's what's kept me going. My mom and sister took my keyboard/piano and they posted an add for sale online just because they both told me I had no right to bring a friend and that I never do anything for them so what ever money my mom got for selling the piano she was going to keep. Honestly I went into tears because when I wanted to get it back they wouldn't allow me even though it's mine. All the years I grew up thinking nobody wanted me because my mom never cared that since I was 6 up until now I have had a sad heart with no one to mend it. I'm 24 now and I probably need therapy but honestly music is my therapy. And I'm currently remodeling a home I will live in soon. My brother who lives with us always goes out with friends never helps my mom with bills nor groceries, Last night I bought 100$ worth of groceries it's all I had. But my mom does not know how to appreciate it. And she never tells my brother anything only me just because I'm the youngest and I'm the weakest one. I don't care about family a lot all the bullying and family hatred has caused me to only rely on myself. All my aunts and uncles are only good at snitching and hating on each other just because one person might have something better. . My uncle owes me 600$ for a car he sold on that was mine and his to coward to look me in the face and pay me. On thanksgiving he didn't even say hello. A lot of my cousins are just having babies with married guys and then just partying after they have had them. I don't want to be like them and id be happy never seeing anyone again. One of my aunts lied that my grandpa was a rapist and he came out on the news. And then she came out saying it was all a lie. I don't want to be close to my family. I want to start my own from scratch but not be part of the one I already have. The only person I can count on is my aunt Gloria because she is like a mom and can keep a secret even though we don't talk much. But others and my mom keep telling me I need to be more family orientated and that I need to get closer to everyone. And I don't want to. I'm judged all the time just because I dress differently like in all black or wear clothes with skulls and they call me a "white Mexican". Like it's offensive to me. Oh well I don't dress like them or listen to that horrid Mexican music. What I can I do please help??? And sorry if it was to long.

since she's my half sister they'd be my sisters half sisters aswell but not related to me at all since they only have their father in common and hes not related to me at all. i still call them my sisters for the technicality of "my sisters sisters are my sisters" but IS there a technical term for people in this situation? the sisters sisters i mean what are they called. even though there's no blood relation between us. does this make sense

So last year i did drugs and i went away to a mental hospital to get better. My best friend gave me a vape to help me stop smoking. i hid it for about 9 months and my mom went through my stuff today while i was at school and found it. She's grounding me for a month, she took away my phone, and i cant go to any of my friends house. She knows that i had problems with smoking and drugs so i dont get why she's so pissed? She also told my family that i took $100 from my stepdad WHO'S IN THE ******* HOSPITAL AND EVERYONE BELIEVES HER JUST BC I DID DUMB **** IN THE PAST. So now i'm not getting anything for Christmas and i'm not allowed to celebrate it with my family. Is it just me or is that bs??

The daughter has some serious issues but and even told the mother to F off but that said shouldn't the mother always been trying to get in touch with her like several times a year?

I'm not talking kids, just sex

I just got home from picking up my kids at school. Since it was warm out and I did not get out of the car and was only gone for 30 minutes I drove barefoot and did not bring my shoes.

How would she react if your daughter was constantly stalked by a lesbian in school? not to mention if she the lesbian rubbed her shoulders and stalked her social media. How would you react knowing they were once best friends and knowing that lesbian wanted something more from her?

Our Dad has Alzheimers

Here's some background information, my brother just turned 8 and I'm 13, and we aren't rich in ANY way whatsoever. Basically, every time my brother asks for something he gets it. One time, my brother asked for a $50 toy, and my mom went straight there and got it for him even though she was planning to use it on food for the family. He cries about everything he doesn't like, for example school is a big fight every morning and he cries if he doesn't get what he wants (he cried for half a day because he wanted a new toy). Whenever he hits me or physically injures me and I tell him to stop, he doesn't, and I get in trouble because my mom tells me to defend myself. Whenever I defend myself I get in trouble because she tells me to just tell him to stop. I can't win here. I have tried talking to her about it, but she always tells me that I'm not the parent and shouldn't be telling her how to do her job, I get that she's the parent but I'm just trying to talk to her about how unfair this all is. She always says that I'm being a brat and sends me to my room, what do I do?

If family upsets her she will not forgive unless the offending party is profoundly sorry. Yet, she always expected my siblings and I to forgive when we were kids and got mad. My mother always taught me that the meaning of Christmas was to make a big deal about who we weren't speaking to and insult them extra hard at Christmas. As a result I am guilty of some of this though I don't do it to family (I pick people outside of family).

Fingerbang your sister or have sex with your first cousin

Ok so im 15 my older sister 23 deaf and she snitches on me hits me and my dad belives her all the time like not to long ago she snitch saying i was fking smoking cig buds off the ground like wtf i do smoke im addicted my mom knows she supports the habbit and i be quiting soon i smoke my own pack i buy but my sister she never seen me smoke this year the last time she seen me smoke was 2 years ago in getting tired of this me getting in trouble for nothing im about to kill someone

His name is William Milton Woods, he should be in his late fifties. Some relatives are Daniel and Heather woods. In sacramento Cali. Last address I can think of its Carlotta Drive. Thank you.

My dad got very angry and started cussing after me and my brother pulled a prank and we went too far a couple weeks ago. We took the tire off his truck before he was supposed to go to a party and hid it in the bushes and it took him hours to find it. He knows I'm looking forward to my graduation because he's heard me talking about it for the past few months. He says that he will go on the stage drunk and fart in the the mic in front of the entire class and other parents then tell everyone that he's my father and he says he's dead serious. I apologized so many times but he still says he's doing it. I have 5 months left to convince him not to but so far it's not working what should I do? My mom is angry with all of us now including him and she's not picking sides. He's never been known to bluff he always goes through with everything

It's supposed to be your day, just the two of you, until your brother hears that your going skiing and just has to tag along. You have a long-established sibling rivalry since your diaper days that has grown in intensity over the years and you have been trying to one up each other in everything that you do. What would you say? Would you let him tag along and make it a competition about who the better skier is? Or would you say no and say it's your day with your girlfriend? *you're

I got into a huge argument with my mother over how my messy bedroom bothers her husband who is a clean freak (have in mind that they consider a couple of clean shirts laying in a chair an absolute mess) and threatened to kick me out if I upset him again. I've nowhere else to go. I asked if having a husband was more important to her than having a child. She didn't reply. What do you think is more important to you having a husband/wife or your own children? I understand that a lover has some advantages (income, sex, more in common with parent) but the children are their family, their own flesh and blood and, if raised with love, they stay with you no matter what and unlike a lover you can't replace your children so it still makes no sense to me. I've read blogs about people who were dying to have children but their lover didn't want any, always because of the "wasted" money. They give up having children to stay with their lover. I've seen news about parents KILLING their own children because their partners didn't want them. Either way I'm disgusted. Am I wrong for thinking children are more important?. I'm an adult. My mother did NOT raise me, my grandmother did because my mother used the excuse of being 19 years old to avoid her parenting job. Growing up everything involving raising me always fell upon my grandmother and to a lesser extent my great grandmother. My mother only started paying attention to me when I was a teenager and old enough to not need her attention then she started pestering me, trying to bribe me and turn me against eveyone but her. Also, the only reason I'm living with my mother is because I've a certain mental issue (No it's not me wanting to me a basement baby forever) and my mom forced me to live a sheltered life as a result and she has choosed her partners over me since I was a child. If it was up to me I would've left home at 18. She won't let me out of the house and get a job as a result. No, I'm NOT saying I want my mother to be single and my caretaker the rest of her life but it makes me mad that she loves her husband more than I and I know this because she told me so during my entire life.

He was laughting and looked like he might have been on drugs? What drugs could have done this and should I be worried? When he jumped he shouted 'Cockage chips away McCosta' Should I tell my mother? He is looking after me and my sis whist mum is away with dad doing Christmas shilling in NY

My dad he's never been there for me, he's an alcoholic and he's never been supportive and gets mad at me for stupid stuff. My mom has done lots of things Im great full for but she has also has don't things that I can forgive her for, such as yelling and screaming at me for struggling with mental illness. Are my reasons for not liking them valid?

I have never known my father but I am 22 and ready to get some answers. My family is of no help. I have his full name but no birth date. I had a lead about him possibly being in an archived court case but I had no success in finding him. It is driving me crazy that I can find no information! Can someone please help?

We're at the country with some of my stepdads family (I didn't even want to go so that's a starter) and i don't like it. First of all, I got sick in the same first day here and i still am. Our family's children is just straight up awful. I went with a massager (if that's how you say it) she was an old Native American lady whom used spices and whatnot and she told me I had a lot of stress and that when I got out I would be different. Turns out she was right. I'm usually a calm patient person but afte rr that I can't stand any of those children. I have an ADHD sibling and he's fine but the other children are a bad influence on him since he's staring to cuss. I talked with an aunt and she told me that the children are awful and they do what they want. The worst in town according to her. I can't stand them they come here every day..how can I deal with this?! Please don't hate My mom agrees and she can't stand them either since we have to correct them on doing things that either aren't safe or appropriate. The parents just live next door and I think the de has work and the mom just lets them do what they want. If my stepdad hears that we can't stand them then he'll go mad.

I caught her at the keyboard in the other room anonyposting when she thought i had fallen asleep, I got a clear view of her troll accounts all windowed next to each other she is a big big b itch believe me

Christmas is soon, and I'm in Winter break now. I recently got my report card and I got two very bad grades. Because my grades were bad, I was joking around with my parents saying if they were gonna get what I asked for.. and they both got mad at me and said no because my grades were bad.. What do my grades have to do with Gift Giving and spending time with your family? If they really loved me, they wouldn't care about my grades. Right? Do they not care about me? What does my grades have to do with me?? Grades are temporary, its not like it'll ruin my life! and I tried! Thats not fair.. Those of you who're saying yes, I'd like a reason please and thank you.

So.... i shifted from dubai to india when i was 12 and now im 14 about to become 15. Whenever i get holidays from school i try to visit my dad but....recently my dad lost his job. So now hes in dubai unemployed but has close friends! Lately hes kinda been ignoring me and my brothers and btw im a girl the youngest in the family. Like for example yesterday i was talking with him on the phone and he was watching the news and i said everything i could to strike a conversation like how are you? Hows the job search going? What did you eat? Like a lot of questions. And half of the time he didnt even pay attention to what i was saying in the end i had to just say bye and cut the phone. But whenever he talks with my mum he talks about EVERYTHING.. like he saw someone weird or something or the other but when i tell him something hes like Hmmm....ok. I dont know like am i overeacting or is this like puberty idk. He also actually talkes very nicely with my brothers its only me who he ignores. Idk what to do pls help me i love him unconditionally but i feel somethings wrong in our relationship. I have been crying every night for the last week and idk what to do pls help me.

We have a 1 year old in the high dependency unit at children's hospital and my wife has not been able to stay with her overnight. Each room in the unit fits two children and one parent, but no more. Our daughter is sharing a room with a 6 year old boy and his mother. Apparently the boys mother gets priority over my wife simply because they got there first. According to the nursing staff, the fact that our daughter is still a BABY and is breastfeeding is irrelevant. Accomodation for the rest of the parents is at the end of the hall. We've tried asking the other mother to swap multiple times but she's just said no. This is so hard on our little girl who's never been away from her mum and also on my wife who's never been away from her baby!! She's had 2 nights here already and both have been awful, she's woken up very distressed and screaming for her mum. Obviously the needs of this little boy are important too but would the hospital not take into consideration the age of the children before deciding who's mother gets to stay and who's doesnt? I'm sure the boy would be a lot more capable of coping on his own. Do you think this is fair? Any idea what we can do about it?? Dreading another night...

Well will a aunt who is non blood related, mother of 3 kids aged 35 who have no sex for 3 years will she have sex with her 17 year old nephew?

OK so my parents have sex all the freaking time, and they do it loudly. Like they have no shame whatsoever. I've dropped hints before like "You guys know I can hear everything that goes on in your room? Especially when you talk about me?" This is just really disturbing and I shouldn't need to go somewhere else where I cant hear it, I should be able to continue working at my computer and not have to hear the soundtrack of a porno. They do it when we are awake, when we are not awake, and frankly its annoying and I wish i could just yell SHUT UP at them.

She was sent home early from school and the office called saying she is pregnant. I didn't believe them at first and when I confronted her, she told me the truth. She had unprotected sex in the bathroom and was impregnated by a Godless adolescent. He will pay for corrupting my little girl! And as for my daughter, I think it's time she leaves the coop. I will not stand for this!

My mom died a few years back and my dad is now starting his life over with his fiance. Now that she's his fiance we've already started feeling like one big family but lately I feel like I've been jealous because my dad's fiance's daughter just had a baby. She's the same age as me and I feel jealous because she technically gave my dad a grandchild before I did. I've seen pictures of my dad playing with the baby and it makes me jealous because I want it to be my child but I'm nowhere near ready to have a baby yet and I just feel kind of bad that I haven't given him a grandchild yet. Should I be jealous or what?

I was cursing out my sister for a very valid reason and he choked me (his 15 year old son) and I fell and hit my head. He dislocated his shoulder while doing so and now everyone is mad at me! They're saying it's my fault! My grandmother lives with us and she asked what happened to him and I said "He broke his shoulder while trying to strangle me to death" and then he started yelling at me. I almost ran away, but remembered I have nowhere to go and my mom has a heart problem. What do I do cause I'm sick of the abuse

I care about doing good in school, work, making money and playing video games. Why do some people care that I still live at home? I don't understand. At this point living away would just be more expensive and more of a hassle and since I don't really like to hangout and don't really have time too I don't get what the big deal is.

I'm 18 and I was listening to some artist like Ice cube, Tupac, Biggie in my car one day and my sister was in the car and one of her friends, they are both 14 by the way. Anyway they keep laughing at me and calling my music trash and calling it a joke. Then I asked them what they listen to that's not trash and they said "lil yatchy and 21 savage" I said what the F**k is that and they played a song and it was "Juju on that beat". I nearly drove my car off a bridge. Is that really the music kids listen to nowadays?

I'm 23 years old and want to travel solo to a state not too far from my house. But, my parents won't let me. I tried to convince them that I'm an adult, that I would call them every night, I would only be there for a week, and that I even have a relative who lives 2 hours away from where I want to stay. I even called the place I want to stay at and they said it was safe for young adults to go there alone. It's not a city, but the country. But my mom said she wouldn't travel alone. Both she and my dad worry about unlikely dangers, which drives me crazy, because I'm too old for that. I've traveled a lot with my family in the past. I live right outside a major city and I've been going to that city by myself for the past 5 years. I've even been on a plane by myself a few times. Another reason I want to go to the other state by myself is because I want more control and want to learn how to vacation alone. But my parents act like I'm 13 going to Asia alone. They even define adult as someone who lives on their own and makes their own money rather than 18+. But legally, I'm allowed to make my own decisions and am too big to be overprotected. I've heard of lots of other people (including those around my age) who traveled alone. I even know a lot about the place and area I want to stay at (I've been researching for a year now) as well as the things I want to do. What can I do to convince my parents that I will be okay traveling alone and not to worry too much?

There is a family member of mine (through marriage) who I see all the time and she talks non stop about herself, whatever useless pop culture thing that's "trending", her kids etc and I never agree with anything she says or does and worst of all is that she doesn't listen when someone else has a chance to speak. First of all her husband ignores her...she loves to talk about how he takes her on vacation all the time but he leaves her on the beach for days while he goes out fishing with strangers. She talks about being lonely after a couple of days but never mentions him being selfish etc. Then she talks about her kids and how they react to certain situations. They are the rudest, most spoiled kids and she thinks they are amazing. I can't even look at them or her when we're all together. Then there is the medication...she takes and gives her kids medication for everything. If they have a red blotch on their skin they get benadryl,they sneeze they get an antihistamine, couch...couch syrup...they aren't even sick and she's pumping them full of medication. Then there are the endless purchases...she buys so much useless crap that they had to rent a storage container because their home wasn't big enough but the husband doesn't care because he's so uninvolved. She's a train wreck and I'm not sure I can keep my mouth shut much longer. I need tips.

I started dating my cousin a few weeks ago and we are trying to find a way to tell our parents. She thinks we should let them "accidentally" walkin on when we are having sex, but I think it would be easier just to sit them down to talk about it. Suggestions?

I'm on my last straw, the other day my son's little league team came over for their end of the season party and kept yellng racial slurs at all of the kids. Parents were fairly angry...

My parents have been having problems all my life ... my dad shouting all the time at everyone and everything and when he's happy it's only for a while ... he explained to me that he can't be happy because my mum isn't helping him pay the bills and that she doesn't sit with him at dinner .. honestly I don't even know what to do even though I'm just 15 ...I don't want them to split up but then it looks like that's where it's heading.. my dad says he's struggling to pay school fees and he told me all this ...I'm feeling depressed even though he told me I shouldn't think about it but it's all I can think off and I'm just so sad..please help me

One of his best friends had told me that he got so upset when a guy told his sister under a picture that she had dick sucking lips.She was 16 at the time and he was 18. Fast forward to him being 21 we have been dating for a year and a half and within the first seven months of us dating he wanted to record me giving him head so he could post it online. I ended up doing it because he told me it was okay. Then he said I love you in a post two days later. He seems to really care for and love his sister. He says he loves me and dedicated a post to say that he loved me and stuff.

After all I am not as important as my parents and grandparents. They were real people who had love, good health, and longevity. Im just a chemically poisoned, subhuman thing; a peoduct of eugenics. However, my grandpa was rich, enjoyed a fourty year marriage, wealth, prosperity, and he is 90 years old now soaking up all the inheritance money in medical stuff. Im no where near as good as him. Should I just refer to myself as, "grandpa's illegitimate grandson"? After all im not as important as him and the rest of my family.

My son and I took my grandma who is in her 90s to the grocery store yesterday. My son acted a fool and threw himself down in the middle of aisles (he is almost 10), smarted off, moaned and groaned about wanting to leave, blocked a customers path, etc. I repeatedly tried to correct him and told him that his behavior was unacceptable and that he would be having a discussion with his dad and myself when we got home. My grandma became hostile with me and began yelling at me and telling me I was not to discipline him or correct him in any way and that what he did was not unacceptable and I was wrong, not the kid. Even the cashiers and baggers commented on his behavior, so I know he was out of control. She told me only she could correct him, not me. I finally had my fill of her and yelled at her to mind her own business and let me parent my own child! What is right?

For the past 3 years my mother has said once you turn 18... so on. Well I'm turning 18 in 8 months and probably going to kill myself on the day of my birthday. I'm tired of the constant verbal abuse. Ever since I brought social workers into our house to give my siblings and I a decent childhood. She's hated me. She tells me herself, she does hate me. Well my siblings got the childhood they deserved. I didn't, it was too late for me. Anyways years passed...Problems have got really bad. I wasn't able to focus on school. She tells me her problems like of I can get rid of them in a whistle. Anyways I had to quit school. By the time I got a chance to go back to school. BAM financial crisis. My father is currently in jail for dui. Deserves it quite honestly because he is an abusive alcoholic father but he takes care of the bills. So the one who would take my mother's wrath is gone and now it's me. Anyways I have alot more details but it's even worse. My mother has just made me a black sheep, driven me into a deep depression, and now I have insomnia. Even my hair falls out and the fatigue is crazy. Anyway I'm just really tired of it all. Just wanted someone to know before I kill myself. Just let it out because if I didn't tell anyone that would be my problem.

she is over controling on me i am 22 and she still pay me my university & health insurance and everything.but because of her i am not an independent person nor responsible.She yell at me if i did something she disagree about like... if i cook using the big pan she get mad although i will clean everything. She like everything perfect in a sick way.. i hate her from my bottom of my heart i hate the way she talk i hate the way she look i cannot handle my anger i slap myself when she talk to me ... i dont like her going with me to anywhere i feel she is so heavy on my heart i have now hypertension because of her i cannot fight with people i cannot yell at people if they fooled me i cannot hit them or slav them.. i have serious issues

So my question is should I reach out to my sisters more now that were adults? I see her them occasionally but not a lot and I'm definitely not close to them nor my mom. I tolerate my mom and sisters were as I'm friends with my dad. I'm the only son in the family so I saw through to my moms sneaky lies but I think she was too blind by anger to realize she was lying.

Okay, so I just turned 12 a few weeks ago and this morning I walked into my brother s room and saw my dad on his computer watching porn. My brother was already at school by the way. He saw me, but I m not sure if he knew I saw anything because I closed the door immediately. What am I even supposed to do? I feel so awkward. I ve heard my dad watching porn several times in the hallway, I guess the volume was a bit too high. And I ve walked him in him another time, so this is the second time. Any advice on how I should feel or how I should act?

I don't want to play as I like her parents (my aunt and uncle).

I'm 17 and in my last year of high school, and I want to move out. I'm tired of being told what to do all the time and I want to start living on my own. I'm going to college to get a degree in economics, and I am starting to save my money to move out. My dream is to move to New York City and work on Wall Street. I'm just bored of my home town, nothing goes on here and NYC is filled with so much life and new things to enjoy. Is this normal what I'm feeling? When do I know I'm ready to move out? Thanks for the help!

She is went on her period and she abused us all on summer vacation last year. My mom her and Christmas when I was younger on her. But she's older now and doesn't play that anymore and it's gotten a lot better. How do I react if my sister tries to ruin Christmas?

Like seriously, i know that there are a lot of things to do with this technology, but isn't it just too much? I honestly miss the good old days when people were more active, we used to do a lot of things, not just setting there using our phones, barely doing anything 😪

My mother never sees her family as her father is an alcoholic. She punishes us by not letting us go see them even at Christmas. All my cousins will be gathering Christmas Eve for dinner. Exchanging gifts, telling stories, and making memories. We will be the only group not there because my stupid mother is boycotting it. I am a kid so can't go over alone. By the time I am an adult it might be rude for me to invite myself. This hurts me more then anything. My mother says "well I didn't see my cousins much as a kid" but that was different as they didn't live local. We are just being unfaithful. How do I change my Mom? She is just as much at fault as the alcoholic.I understand not leaving us alone with out grandfather and not buying alcohol for him. But seeing him a few times a year is not enabling. It is not like we have to go every week or anything, Just on family celebrations (weddings, graduations, Christmas, etc...). My mother wouldn't allowed us to go to our cousin's baptism last summer because my grandfather was there even though she (my mother) went. How do I get her to stop punishing us for my grandfather being an alcoholic? It is not protecting us if it upsets me not to be in the family. I don't mind seeing drunk people (I see my Dad's uncle once a year who is an alcoholic).
