She s always talking crap to me and it makes me feel down. I m a person who never cries in front of people or shows feelings "I m an Aquarius" anyways today I was just sitting in the dinner table minding my own business on my phone & she s sitting next to me, and she out of nowhere she says "you need to scrub your neck more, why is it dark" and it made me angry because she said it in front of my sister bf, my brother and my sister. So I started to cry silently out of anger, like last time I was minding my own business in the living room and I heard her and my aunt talking about someone that got her lips done, and she said "that s what she needs (she said my name) because she has small lips. She s always picking on me and never says anything about my sister. It really made me tear up writing, I would think she can be nicer to me cause when I was 14 I almost died when something happened to me. :(

I have a really short temper and get angry at the smallest things, and so I don't upset anyone else, I'll go for a walk or go sit in my room for a while but then they complain that I'm going off in an angry strop that makes me even angrier!

Step-step-grandpa?

The Dad hasn't fought her in court like he should but is she wrong to do this? There is no abuse what so ever. Her husband had an affair so the divorce was his fault but he was good to the kids.

my dad is just pathetic even my mother i know its not respectful to say that but uts like they are shitttt and annoying as hell they ruin my confidence to i dont know how i was born in to this family ewww fuckckckc

I'm 15 and I just joined highschool and ever since then my life has gotten worse just because of my mum (Well, I've always had problems with her but now it's worse). She is always verbally abusing me, sometimes when really angry even physically. She always calls me a b**ch just because of two C's. She compares me to other people and I can't have a proper coversation with her because she just keeps screaming and then she cries because I'm a horrible child if I yell back at her. She just brings money and that makes her think that she's a good parent. She doesn't know anything about me, she tries to pick my friends. Plus she keeps arguing with my dad and I always hear them fighting. In middle school I used to be bullied because I was "ugly" (the bullying has been going on for 4 years endlessly), but now I realise that she is the biggest bully..

My little sister gets worst every day. I grow more concerned because her therapist, case manager, psychologist, and the police see nothing wrong with her; she refuses to open up and instead lies and says she's fine. But I know something is seriously wrong with my baby sister. She was always I hear her listening to music about mass murder, killing humanity and civilization, anti-capitalist and anti-establishment, etc. I feel like she's just waiting to explode. I love her so much, she is the only family I have in this town and I feel like I am losing her. She doesn't get aggressive with me anymore, but before I would have to hold her down kicking and screaming and holding her down would only make it worst. She cries almost every hour, i hear her in her room, she sometimes stares into nothing without realizing we are talking to her, she often fights and argues at school (though she keeps her grades up), sometimes she goes days without showering or brushing her teeth. She is constantly in a state of grandiosity, at least once everyday she mentions her grandiosity and superiority compared to everyone around her being inferior. I love her so much, we've leaned on each other after out moms passing since we are both the youngest of our siblings, but i just feel so sad, i feel like she is in a dark, dark place right now and nothing i or any professionals seem to do makes her better. She has distrust and resentment towards humanity, she isolates every single day.

My little brother is 6 years old. I am 16. My parents shelter and spoil him. I'm not jealous, but I am worried. He sits inside on the iPad all day (when he isn't a school) and barely eats any food unless said food is junky (i.e. Goldfish, microwaveable popcorn chicken, chicken nuggets, fruit snacks.) He is underweight, but not to the extent that doctors are worried. He has no pain tolerance, every time he gets hurt he's babied. I have a little sister a little over 1 year old (from my biological mothers side) and she is the toughest kid I know. Climbing using only upper body strength. But my little brother is nothing like that. He has no upper body strength. He doesn't get outside to exercise or even play. He's always on the iPad. Any time I bring up these problems I am immediately shut down. Any time I try and teach him simple life skills (using a fork, not interrupting people when they're talking, etc) I get criticized and told "you're not his parent, we are." The thing is, my stepmom (little brothers mother,) is sheltering. My dad can't do anything to change what my little brother does, or he will make her mad. I'm his big brother, and I feel it's my responsibility to look out for him. Especially since they don't do anything to prevent what's currently going on. Am I wrong? Please comment how I should approach this. I'm scared for my little brother.

El sabe que al igual que el yo me levanto temprano todos los dias y trabajamos el en su trabajo y yo en mi escuela, los dos solo tenemos los fines de semana para descansar y el no esta en una escuela donde le mandan muchas tareas, en fin, me levante un poco mas tarde de lo normal me levante a las diez, me bañe y me grita que valla y le ayude y le respondo a voy me estoy vistiendo mientras me visto me grita unas 2 veces mas y llega mi mama al bajar casi al final de las escaleras me amenaza conque me va a lanzar uno de sus zapatos y me dice que valla a afuera a cortar el cesped con un machete solo porque el queria que le enseñara a usar la lavadira y me tarde unos 10 min, o sea wtf, y le digo ok espera que tengo que hcer una tarea inmensa para el lunes que tenia que preparar cada subtema con su informacion de una expocicion en la que o no tenia pareja y no tenia a nadie que me ayudase y que cundo termine voy con calma y lo corto, y me amenaza con bajarme jalandome por los pelos si no voy de una vez, luego no sabia hacerlo, termino y me dice que no sirvo para nada y bueno,mientras comemos sigue molestandome diciendoque que soy un inutil que me va a sacar de la escuela que si no voy a hacer nada en esta casa que me va a sacar y que no vuelva hasta que me harte dije no quiero mas y cuando subo me sigue diciendo que su hijo le salio delicada que si hijo es una marik y yo como QUE TE PASA COMO NO ESPERAS QUE ME MOLESTE SI ME DICES TODO ESO MIENTRAS COMO!espero y me puedan ayudar

I am a teen and she made me miss the Christmas her family had because she is mad at them. So she is punishing me because she thinks they are bad (even though they are not bad). How do I get her not to do this?

Well im 16 years old and my little sister is 15. We share a room because my oldest sister took her own room. I said to my mom why cant they stay in the same room since im a boy. They think otherwise and now im stuck with my sister. I hate it its so awkward to share a room with your sister. Like when i undress or when she undresses we have to look away or something. What can i do please help?!

I really want to go to the Twenty One Pilots concert in Idaho on the 8th of February, but my parents keep telling me no. This band means so much to me and it's the only thing keeping me alive. I've already offered to pay for whatever is necessary, and I've been doing extra chores and tasks. The only reason they keep saying no is my dad doesn't want to take days off of work this early in the new year. What can I do?

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 and stuffed animals 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 explantion.

My sister came to me and told me she didn't have anywhere to stay for the night before she go to boot camp. I told her she can stay with me. Then I told her she couldn't say because I live in someone's house who I thought wouldn't allow her there. I didn't know what to do and I didn't know anyone who would take her in. I just feel bad I couldn't help my lil sister out. If I had my own home I would have took her in. Now she has a baby and is engaged. I feel like I lost my sister because she told her bf what happened and they took a picture saying, "real sisters". That just make me feel so jealous. I dont know what to do.

For me, my mom is always tries not to let me have cold and icy drinks for me unless it's hot or its in the summer because she says my stomach will hurt and that it will affect me on my period because of my health (I was born prematurely so my immune can be more sensitive in some way). I'm a 14 year old girl turning 15 in a few months. My older brother is 20 and my other younger brother is 11 and my mom doesn't care much about what they eat or where they go. She just says she knows they'll be together because my older brother always takes my younger one to places. When my brother was my age he had a later curfew than me and my parents didn't warn him about cyberbullying or sex trafficking either but when I even step one foot out of the house my mom will be worried about kidnappers and rapists and drug addicts. My 11 year old brother is allowed to go over to a friends house without checking up with the family every 30 minutes but I'm not allowed to!? Besides all the safety and health rules my mom is also more strict with me like she's more concerned about my grades and my mental health too. My youngest sibling has rules about eating junk food and he was born prematurely too but my mom doesn't worry as much because she says he can handle it but I can't. They rarely got talked to about violent video games and certain movies but sometimes whenever I watch a movie my parent tells me that what a certain character is doing is wrong (stealing, bullying, lying to parents, etc).

First off, I'm 13 years old, almost 14 now. My parents are Romanian, so they are very strict. Ever since I was a little kid, if I did something bad, they spanked me. Not that bad, right? Wrong. It got to the point where if I didn't understand a math problem, my mom would freak out and hit me over the head with a notebook. Pleasant, huh? They're very strict about my grades. When I was younger, they didn't really care if I got B's on my report card. Now, A's are necessary in order for me to keep living in this house. B's will get me grounded, C's will get me grounded for a year with a beating, and below a C, I will be kicked out of this house and disowned. This puts pressure on me, and I don't know how, but I developed a problem because of it, where even if I put the right answer on a test or quiz, my mind would keep thinking it was wrong, while my gut keeps telling me it's right. This has caused me to be slower in test taking, which is why sometimes it takes me the entire class time to do a test with 25 questions. I've always had a weight problem. I'm not quite obese, but I am overweight. My parents always talked to me about it. I couldn't and still can't help it! I crave sweet things, and then I overeat and it is just hectic. I try to lose weight, but then I overeat and gain weight. Even this morning, after I had oatmeal with some cereal, I ate four chocolate bars filled with a rum-caramel thingy. I guess I'll have to eat less during lunchtime and dinnertime... NOW here's the real problem: a year and a half ago, my parents signed me up for gym. Not that bad, right? WRONG. My dad overworks me and tells me I have to do this and do that over and over until my muscles hurt and I can barely lift my arms. Then we go swimming, but that part is fine. The thing I hate is that my dad overworks me and I dread of going to the gym. I just hate it. I can easily go for a run or work out here at my home, but my dad spends a couple hundred bucks for a membership. I just want my parents to love me for who I am, not to force me to look like what they want! I am overweight, yes, and I'm working on it! But forcing me to go to the gym and work out until my muscles ache and I feel dizzy? Is that really necessary? I love the swimming part, but I dread the work out part. I just don't understand why they want me to look ripped! They should love me for who I am, even if I am overweight, that doesn't mean they have to force me to work out!

My husband is from Sweden. Or rather he is from Bosnia but he grew up in Sweden. I'm an Aussie and we both now live in Melbourne where we have lived for 2 years as a married couple. We met like 4 years ago on a backpacking trip in Southeast Asia. 6 months ago we went to visit his family. Since then he's been talking about going back home. It started with his dad having a back surgery. Then his mom from nowhere got depressed because she missed him, then his parents said that his little brother needs him and that he is getting involved with the wrong people. The last 6 months there has just been one problem after the other with them. And these are not poor people. His father is an engineer and has his own business. His mother is a manager and has like 40 people under her. So they're not starving. And I don't know what they mean when they that his brother is in trouble. His brother lives in central Stockholm in a studio apartment and goes to the best college in Sweden if not the whole of Scandinavia. They are upper middle class people. They have it better than my family. But being Bosnian family is very important and I guess they feel their family is not complete without their oldest son. But they are guilt tripping him. He's wanted to discuss a few times about moving to Sweden. Before we went to visit 6 months ago we had it good. He was happy with his job, we were planning to buy a house but now everything stopped, because of them. What do I do?

My dad is one of the most stubborn people there is. He has CHF and Stomach issues. He is getting worse by the day. He has a doctors appointment in a few days but it is very upsetting that both my mom and I have told him multiple times to go to the hospital. He's turning yellow (jaundice), also throwing up, wont eat regularly. He's getting worse. I have tried to convince him but says he doesn't want them to poke or mess with him, "it's a bother". I'm getting frustrated because he wont listen and it's making my mom cry. He was suppose to go to the cardiac doctor over a year ago and just kept putting it off. Finally I got very frustrated and said "dad told don't blame us if you are dead because you wont go to hospital". I feel really bad about it because it's a mean thing to say but his answer was " ok and I won't die". I just feel really bad about saying that. sorry for the rant

Now I personally am active on social media. I'm of age, I know how to protect myself as much as I can, and I am aware of what's real and what's not. That's because I'm not 8 years old! My mother always tries to input my actions on my little sister. I'm a teenager.I had to wait a long time to do some of the things I get now. Such as a phone, or purse, or minimal makeup. She bullies people including me, and my parents. They can't even raise her correctly. She goes around calling me idiot and other bad things. I'm always trying my best to keep a positive attitude around her and ignore her. But guess what? It's ME that gets in trouble when I do so. I personally like to dress nice because it's who I am. Oh, and I'll snap a quick pic while I look nice. Then you know what my mom does? She brainwashes my little sister to dress nice for camera. Or that she has to get thousands of followers. My moms literally pimping like I'm cringing. She's making her talk to people online everyday, smile, laugh, and share her personal little kid life. When I kindly Or harshly speak to her about it she always blames my dissatisfaction to jealousy. Why should I be jealous? I'm pained to see that a little kid is being forced to put on lipgloss or do things that she's not even supposed to do. My mom is making her copy every single thing I do as a teenager.And let's not mention I already live in an abusive household. It's taking so much for me to be positive and I don't know what to do.

He is convinced he does not need help and he sends me emails saying these things.

So, what's wrong with this; so when its about us (siblings), my parents don't do anything for us, always complaining, why we do this, why we do that, etc. but when it comes to our cousins, grandmothers, uncles etc, they wanna do something nice for them. Is something wrong with this?

So my parents alwas tell me that I show attitude and disrespect towards them. And so this time I disrepected my dad and now he will not talk to me. I want to apologize but at the same time I want to figure myself out and figure out ways to control my anger around him because I dont want a situation where i apologized but then I keep disrespecting him. Hes going to be traveling for the next two weeks and god forbid anything happens to him. What should I do?

My father has hazel eyes that are blue but in the middle they are brown. My mother has hazel eye but theyre green, and brown in the middle. How come i have dark Brown eyes? (My 4 siblings all have brown eyes to)

Getting him to stop is impossible.

I am currently 21 year old guy and when I was in high school, I was sexually assaulted. I did not tell anybody for years. Two weeks agom I finally told my mother and she said she felt horrible about what happened. A few days later we were talking about it again and she said I shouldn't have let it happen to me and that I should just get over it. She went on to say that her life was way more stressful than mine. What she said hurt me as it basically dismissed me. I never did one thing to be put into a position to be assaulted nor did I even ask to be assaulted. Yesterday we spoke of this again and she still says just wants to minimize what happened and blame me and act like this never happened. Furthermore, in the last year she has physically hit me on multiple occasions over stuff that she has been stressed out about that I had nothing to do with. I do not even know what normal behavior is because of the hurt I have had to go through. Is my mom a bad mother?

I just thought about it. I'm currently paying $1200 a month ($300 a week) for my living expenses and thats not paying for a car or cigarettes. If I was then it'd be like $400 a week, or $10 an hour working full time. Minimum wage isn't that high! How do you guys survive on your own??? I noticed all my life when I had a job I still had to live with my mother, my sister, my aunt, a friend or my step dad. Even making up to $12 an hour. 12 years ago though but prices have been the same. It wasn't until I was making $20 an hour when I could move out on my own. How much are you paying, how much are you making, and whats your story of how you were able to live on your own?

Recently I discovered that my dad keeps getting on my computer and uses reddit or something on it. I confronted him about it and he screamed at me saying "You hogged the TV, so I'm on your computer." I will admit that I frequently watch TV, but so does he. In fact, he watches it way more than I do. I seriously want him to get off. And the worst thing is that he has his own computer. He only uses mine to make me angry and because his computer has all of this malware from crap he downloaded, and yet again he blames it on me for using it even though I would only borrow it for tests and homework BEFORE I got my PC. I'm gonna change my password on my computer so he can't get on. However, that might make him angry. Is there any suggestions that people can give me to keep my dad away from my PC?

This is really about my parents. I am 17, I ll be 18 in three months. I ll be moving out and going to college this summer. My mom and dad got a divorce when I was a sophomore in high school, my mom cheated on my dad. Since then, my mom has remarried and become a totally different person. She expects me to watch my little sisters at every beck-and-call. She expects me to drive them around and hang out with them. Did I mention I am a cheerleader, working, in school, and on a travel court for my county? I barely have free time as is. I m a teenager and most parents understand that they want you to have fun while you re young. But my mom gets mad when I don t want to do something to help her out, and she never notices the time when I do help her. I tried talking to her about it but she acted like I was talking to a wall and ignored me. I don t want to ruin our family relationship, although she already has My older sister Olivia never talks to me after she moved out. She wants to plan a family trip to Puerto Rico but I don t want to go, and I told her that. & she got mad at me, I would rather go on a senior trip because I will never get that chance again. And last time I went on a family vacation I was the babysitter and the maid. I m a kid too, and I got treated like I was supposed to be an adult at age 16. Is it bad that in my free time I don t want to be with my family when they treat me badly? My family won t even talk to me, what should I do?

I am from Maryland and we would like to go to Oregon for senior week! I am not a senior, I will be a 17 year old junior, but he is a senior who will also be 17. I am working on a powerpoint and wondering what topics I should make my slides in order to convince them on letting me go (very loving and overbearing mother.)

I can say that my parents provide me everything I need .. Bad side is .. Just coz my father shouts at me with a question and I reply back with an answer that he won't like he gets even more angry .. And am usually bad tempered and I don't like being shouted at coz I get mad fast .. I try to avoid conversations and any involvements with my father to calm things down so that the next day everything should be fine and that's how things usually happen unless he's very mad. My mother then comes and tells me how she's not proud to have me as a child and she better send me to my aunt to study and live with her .. And then she brings up everything I ever told her about my life from friends and events and stuff I do that she wants me to feel terrible coz of doing it(which r stuff usually not horrible or bad) it's just me and my mother but particularly father never had a good parents and son relationship .. I once got lost when I was 8 .. So I didn't know what to do, no phones or nothing .. It was a crowded area but good thing I remember where my mother parked her car and stayed there crying (trying to ask for a phone but couldn't since I was so afraid) .. She finds me then shouts at me .. Next thing happens is we arrive home.. She's like change ur clothes .. The second I was naked she brings a wooden stick and hits me with it until it broke and my whole body was swollen .. I try to avoid much time with them but the second they find a chance to annoy me they take it .. Ps. Am 17

They also say they hate welfare too and that they refuse to work or get welfare. Here is the situation I'm having with them I'm 49. I don't ever plan on teaching my son and daughter how to drive. I might be them a very cheap car on Craigslist though, one that is only $100 dollars or less I don't care if it is safe or unsafe. I should not have to support my son and daughter like that. My parents got me driving lessons when I was 15, but that is different. What do you think? We live in a town with no public transportation, within walking distance, too, to get to town where the jobs are at are 15 miles away and they say they REFUSE to walk 5 hours to a job, and 5 hours back home after. Why are they screwed up? I wish my wife would have aborted them 17 and 18 years ago! They have not been in school since 8th grade, I was going to home school them but never did.

My little sister was angry at her friend and then decided to throw one of her toys at me and I caught it and refused to give it back to her until she said sorry, reasonable? Then she started screaming at me and hitting the me and I kept saying "say sorry" at one point she spit on me so I threw that toy across the room and left. What should have I done differently? And what to do now?

I had an argument with him a couple of days ago and told my friends that he is not someone with great character and that he is close-minded. In actuality, he is a great person with lots of admirable traits but like everyone else, is flawed. Have you guys done this before or do this often? Please share.

He's my grandma's brother's son. Second cousin?? Ew! I'm not planning on having sex with him. I'm just curious.

Well I'm in my third year of college and I live in the south (not going to say which state because I don't want anyone getting offended because I hate this place). I was forced to moved here when I was 14 because my mom had to take care of my sick grandmother (which I didn't mind because I love my granny) and my sister was getting in too much trouble where we lived. I'm originally from New Jersey and honestly, I LOVED living in Jersey. I was so happy there. I was thinking about going to graduate school in jersey or either New York. Most of family lives in Jersey as well. However, I've also wanted to go to grad school in either California, Georgia, Florida, Massachusetts, etc. (places I've never been). But I know a large part of me just wants to move back home because that's where I'm happiest. If you guys were in my position, what would you do?

Hello. I found two $100 EE series savings bonds. I came across them while looking for my birth certificate. I am 24, the bonds are from 02/1987. My mother never told me she had these. I just recently lost my job and my money situation is dismal at best, and I could really use these. The bonds are in my name and my father's. However, my father passed away when I was 9. Two years after that, my mother remarried, and my stepfather legally adopted my sisters and I so we would all have the same last name. My last name is no longer as it appears on the bonds. I am curious as to two things: 1) How can I cash them? I know it's supposed to be as simple as going to the bank, but since my father has passed away and my last name has since changed, I'm sure it won't be that simple. The only birth certificate I have has my last name as it is now, I do not know where the original is. I do, however, have copies of the adoption papers, as well as immunization records from when I was an infant, both of which have my old last name. 2) Who is notified, if anyone at all, when they are cashed? My name and my fathers are on them, but I believe they may have been a gift from a family friend we no longer speak to. I won't go into details, suffice to say my mother probably doesn't want me to have them. If I can avoid the argument I'm sure will ensue (concerning my father and anything related to him), I would most certainly like to. I'm 24 and if these are mine I feel she has no right to object anyway, but who wants to argue with family? Regardless of how she feels, I still have bills to take care of. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

This is a FB status about someone's dad being 2 years clean from drugs. Congratulations to my dad on hitting 2 years clean (off of drugs, for anyone who doesn't know me well) on New Years Day. You've come a long way and I couldn't be any more proud of you. Since before I can remember, you made some pretty stupid choices that will forever affect you and me negatively, but the past cant be changed. Allowing that time to define you as a person will do no good, and these past two years have shown that you haven't done that. I've seen change in you. I've noticed your words come to life into actions and the empty promises becoming fulfilled unlike before. I've seen how great of a dad you can actually be. I've seen how much thought you can put into the things that you do and that you can live your life selflessly and to help others and not as a selfish hunt for getting what you want in order to escape like before. You have an awesome girlfriend with four more kids that you now get to take care of, and although I wasn't able to receive the new and improved you when I was a kid, I hope you give it to them. You treat them as if they're your own, and it's awesome to be able to see that underneath all of the lifestyle that you lived, you're a good dad. Although you can still be a pain, I love you. Congratulations. I saw it and thought this person brought up quite a lot of negative stuff for it to be a sweet congratulations post lol I just wanna see what you guys think about it.

My dad hate womens and kids but still get married just because everyone do it and they think it's necessary. At weekends he put me , my mom and big bro in a bedroom and do party, play loud music, drink and smoke in living room with other mens and sometimes even call me to dance with them.he abuse my mom. He hit me and my bro.he HATE me and my mom and brother but Behave VERY NICE with outsiders.he use that kind of dirty words for me what a good man will Never use for stranger girls also. I feel so bad but there is nothing I can do until I became a adult.???

Hi, I'm a 13 y/o (no don't say it I'm tooooo young for yahoo 😒) I feel like my dad doesn't care for me because when I try to talk to him he's like " I'm tired stop bothering me " and he says that even when he's stayed home for 2 days from work and has had 14 hours of sleep, he talks and laughs with my brothers and has long conversations with them. Everyone in my family is always on electronics, my brothers get along well and always make fun of me, I don't have many friends (I have this one best friend who is always coming to my house but she's popular) my mom is always on her phone and while I'm taking in the car she'll call someone and be like "hold on honey" WHEN I WAS TALKING FIRST, I spend most of my days off crying myself to sleep and cuddling with my kitty. I don't wanna ask for therapy because I think I'm depressed because my parents will laugh at me and so will my brothers, my dad tends to call me an idiot and a dumbass.. I hold back every tear and hide it with a smile. Help.

I don't want to sound like a baby but its really not fair. Im 14 my parents have never taken me outside of our city and when they do its only to the same we have gone to since i was 5, they have never take me outside the state. I see my friends and there parents take them camping, six flags,beach. I have never been to a amusement park i have never gone to the beach with my parents. Im stuck at home on facebook with no one to talk to because everyone is having a wonder full ******* time outside. Like i said the mall is basically as far as my parents go. Im 14 i want to go have fun go to concerts, hang out with my family and do every that my friends are doing. What can i do? When i want to talk about it with my parents they agree and they talk to me saying that im right and then they don't do anything about it? I just feel like i was taken away a part of my childhood. I really don't want to sound like a baby but its sad.

this is ridiculous! my parents (well mostly my dad) always tell me how i never do anything, im so lazy, all i do is sit around the house, but thats because they wont take me anywhere! im 15 so i cant drive and go anywhere by myself. my towns small so we dont have much. i always ask to go to the mall, movies, and all types of stuff, but they always say "we're tired from working all day. our legs hurt. blahhblahhblahh" then they get on me 2 seconds later bc i dont go anywhere! my mom will take me places but she works alot so usually its just my and my dad at home most of the time. what am i supposed to do! theyre like "go to the grocery store with us" or sumthan like that but im like NO thats not how i wanna spend my time! i want to have friends over and do stuff with them and my mom says ok but my dad says "no im not babysitting all your friends, your not having anybody over! they dont invite you over and nobody wants to come over because you never go anywhere!" uhm wtf!! im 15, nobody has to babysit us! and once again i dont go anywhere because they wont take me anywhere!! i asked mom if somebody could come over tomorrow and she said ok but she works as long as its ok with my dad and my dad says "NOOOO all you wanna do is have people over the house so you can stay confined here in the comfort of your own house" im like "ok well will you take us to a movie or the mall or something?" and he goes "no why should i its my day to relax and your just asking because you know i wont take you. i dont play your game." UMM HELLLO!! what am i supposed to do!! help me?!

Eyelashes help protect eyes from particles and bacteria. Thick eyelashes are an evolutionary advantage and very attractive. plz no nigggers or women answer, you're too dumb

Assuming the same exact sperm cell from my father had fertilized an egg other than my mother's, would I still be alive and just have a different physical body?

my and my boyfriend have been dating for 2 years. his brother tried cheating on his girlfriend with my old foster sister so I told her because my old foster sis has aids. so his brother wont come around when I'm here and in my opinion family is important so I told him I think we should break up cause I want him to have a relationship with his brother even though it is his brothers choice to not come around when we are dating. I have tried so many times to apologize to his brother but he is always criticizing me. calling me a foster freak and saying that he could see why my biological parents didn't want me.(my mom passed and dad raped me when I was little and cant be found . anyway my boyfriends sister is always posting negative and drama on fb so I blocked her so she don't like me so whats the point? his siblings don't like me.

My 2 girl friends are extremely hot. I m beautiful as well, but still nothing compared to them. I ve always been somewhat insecure around them. One day my boyfriend and I were speaking in hypothetical instances and wondered what we would ve done if we met at the bars before meeting each other. I told him I wouldve immediately gone for him and ignored everyone else, including his friends. He said ditto, and I kept asking him, "why would you have chosen me over my hot friends?" And he d reply with answers like, because we fit better, because you re cooler, because you like video games, etc.. but never said because I think you re hotter. This issue has been making me extremely insecure for a couple days now. It s so obvious how much hotter my friends are than I am, but it would have been nice if my bf of all people couldve made me feel a little better about it and at least lied to me and said I was more beautiful. Im very upset with him right now and he keeps telling me he didn t say anything about physical beauty because he didn t even think about it, but I think he s lying because he knows they re obviously more attractive than I am. I tell my bf all the time he s the sexiest out of all his friends and my exes. I do everything I can to make him feel like a million bucks, so if you re trolling i really don t need to hear any testosterone induced sexist comments about how ridiculous you think I am. I just want legitimate advice and some understanding. Thanks.

Hello, I am a 24 year old female who needs some advice on how to deal with an issue that I have with my brother's partner. My brother is 27, his partner is 22 and they are in a homosexual relationship that has been going on for the past four years. I love my brother to death, but his partner is an absolute nightmare and I don't understand what my brother sees in him. He is very prissy, overdramatic, wants all attention on him, and constantly has to get his way or he throws a tantrum like a child. My brother and his partner have been visiting me for the past 3 days and already his partner has thrown fits. The first night they came in, his partner started screaming and acting childish when my brother told him to eat dinner and he wanted to go to bed. Then, the day after, he started smacking my brother's arms because my brother didn't want to have sex with him and he wanted to right then (mind you it was the afternoon and we had just gotten home from walking around town) and he did not stop until my brother agreed, just to shut him up. Not to mention, he calls my brother Daddy, which I think is highly inappropriate. I don't mind that the guy is more feminine; I don't mind homosexuality, it's just he is so clingy and whiny. He has my brother wrapped around his finger and I hate how he uses his childishness until he gets his way. I know my brother said he had an abusive childhood, but my gosh, he is so childish. How do I get my brother to realize what is going on? Any advice?

Or was she just mentally ill and trying to get attention?

there is a long back story of why i needed housing but its too long and sad, ill juts say im a young college student, my mother is homeless living out of her car and my dad and i dont have a relationship. I work get good grades and am extrememly polite and repsectful. I asked my aunt if i could stay with her, she lives right downtown in a duplex. she talked to me like i was trying to take advantage of her and was lazy. She grudgingly said i could stay with lots of conditions, i get a second job, save 1000 a month and she could kick me out any time. She said she really didnt want me there because she wanted her space. I am appreciative of her but also upset, part of me didnt even want to accept her offer because it was clearly not done in a spirit of understanding or true generosity. its been two weeks and my 21st birhtday is in a week. she just told me she wants me to move out. she said it was nothing I did it was her needing her space. she then vented to me how her job in stressful, because she works with people and people get emotional, she surveys and investigates medical businiesses, I was annoyed how she explained it to me like I had no idea (I work at a school for emotionally disturbed children) and she needs to come home to a sanctuaty. Honestly im not upset with her because i believe her she needs her space she did help me out- but i do feel very mistreated?

Ok we were st a bar he was drunk I had just 1 drink not even all of it we were talking to a friend he was saying how tight him and mom and his sister are (me) it's such bullsh*t we are no where tight me and him don't get a long most of the time when he said that he said right? I just ignored because I didn't want to be fake but also he wouldn't like my real answer I get a long with mom better not great but better she is just a hypocrite.

We're having our family portrait updated in a few weeks and my youngest son is upset that we don't want his wife included in the photo. He's upset because my other 2 daughters in law will be in it, but the problem is his wife, Anna, is overweight. My wife and I and most of his brothers and sisters feel that having a fat woman in our family portrait will ruin the photo. She wasn't always fat, she was actually quite stunning when they were married, but she's gotten increasingly fat since she had kids. We gave her 10 months notice and told her to lose 43 lbs if she wanted to be in the portrait and she hasn't, so this is really all her fault but my son still feels upset. He's angry because all of the other wives will be in it.... but that's because none of them have embarrassing weight issues. I explained to him that I'll be showing this portrait to clients and business partners as I'll have a copy in my office and in my home. I don't want to have to explain when they laugh and ask about the fat woman that my son is a chubby chaser. Frankly... her weight is an embarrassment to this family. How do I convince him it's his wifes own fault she's being excluded?
