I'm 13 my dad is 60 and my mom is 55

It is not my fault he drinks but no one will have me over anymore in the family because I guess they figure they'd have to ask him, I even missed Christmas this year because of it,

Hello, my name is Justin and I'm 16 years old. I currently live with my father, which is now a legal female, and my stepmom in Michigan. I visit my mother every other weekend, also in Michigan, due to my "father" having sole custody of me. My mother has sole custody of my younger brother, who also comes to visit my "father" on the weekends I don't see my mother, so we see each other every weekend, my brother and I. I would like to live with my mother, and here's why: -My former father used to get drunk all the time, and more often than rarely, would knock down doors, hit people in the family, yell scream and curse. This is the main reason my main mother divorced him. This alcohol issue hasn't happened in about 2 years now. -My father and step mother find it okay to search my room. Don't get me wrong, no matter how much I think they can't, they still can. Nothing wrong with it, except for the fashion in which they do it. They enter my room while I'm in school, and completely ruin everything. It's like they get pissed because they can't find what they are looking for, and go on a blind rage, and take out all the drawers in my dresser, taking out all the clothes and throwing them about the room, throwing various objects around, usually braking them. This happens usually 2-3 times a month. I have 6 more reasons, but due to Yahoo! Answers character limit, I cannot show the rest

my aunt has moved in with us for a few weeks now. she sometimes shows up at breakfast wearing only a tshirt over her underwear and slippers.then I noticed that it's actually not a tshirt but a short nightie. anyway, her legs are very distracting, and I can't help but see her as not my aunt, but just as a woman. I keep telling myself she's my aunt but its no use and while it is nice to look I'm scared that I'm going to try doing something stupid and reckless. Is it normal that I've been feeling this way? and should i tell her about this? Rebecca: Not "raping" my aunt, but I keep thinking about trying to flirt with her and see where it will lead, which is bad enough

Hi, i would like to know what you would do in this situation i will explain below. I am 20 years old, i live a decent life. My father died 5 years ago, my mother lives abroad with my sister. In my childhood we had a ''family friend'', which was another family. They had 3 years older kid than me. Mother of this kid is my mom's one of best friends, they knew each other since childhood. Both mother and father works for minimum wage and this kid( now 23 years old) has alcohol problems and they all dont have much education and have village mentality. I remember my whole childhood that my family would meet with this family and i would spend time with this guy. It was like that until 10-11 years old like this. I have a birthmark exactly same as my father on my back , and this guy has exactly same one as well in the same place. When i was kid i didnt understand. Just recently i asked my mother whats up with that, she said that this women fall off when she was pregnant on this place. I said that its biologically more likely that its my fathers child than the fact that she fall off on the same place and developed same birthmark as me. My mother told me that she doesnt know and even if it is true it doesnt have to do anything with us , becaue when she was pregnant my mother didnt even have relationship with my father. She told me not to tell anything about this to that family, because it might destroy their life. Even to their son. on the other hand i really want to tell...

I'm kinda nervous and where do I begin. Background is my sister married and told no one for nearly a year and she is 19 he is 21 and serving a 5 year prison sentence he's about 6 months into the sentence. Please help me and no rude comments please about my sister or her husband. Thanks.

My sister and I are twins so we got our permits in October when we turned 16. What upsets me is that my sister has been getting all the driving lessons and already started drivers ed! I was the one out of the two of us who wanted my permit the most. My mom didn't feel we were ready and all of the sudden I'm getting ignored? I asked my dad about it and he agrees that I'm the responsible one whos a good driver. Regardless of that my mom understands we both need a specific amount of driving to get our license. My mom won't let me drive her truck but let my sister ( the reckless driver) drive it. My sister has always been the wild one getting into trouble at school and had poor grades. I'm a straight a student and have a good relationship with both of my parents and have no record at school or otherwise. What the heck gives??? How can I get my mom to see how rediculous this is?

Since I left their father 8 years ago? I left an abusive marriage. I left after they were grown. I raised them myself practically. Since the divorce, they have nothing to do with me. Tomorrow is my birthday as in every other year, comes and goes with nothing from my kids. When does the hurting stop? Each year for xmas and their birthday I send them gifts, $$$'s or whatever I can financially afford, with a light hearted card and tell them I love them. I get not even a thank you in return. I have called them to try to set up a meeting to discuss the issue at hand but they never have time to meet with me. They are over 30 now. And for those of you that want to judge.. no I did not leave their father for another man/woman or nothing except I thought it was time for me finally to enjoy my last chapter in life.

I'm a shy woman who easily gets her feelings hurt and gets down easily. I have a cute almost 6 month old and I'm struggling with comments, suggesting, and criticism. My husband's grandparents watches our baby once a week, and on Monday she practically yelled at me for not putting our baby in a snowsuit for the 20 minute drive. a) That isn't recommended. b) our Caddy gets to 90 degrees. She is fine. But his grandma won't listen! She keeps talking about it! I really think they make her too warm. I was so upset and annoyed that I almost called my mother at work and email my MIL (it was her mother). She acted like we are abusing her! Then there is my mother (in her low 60s) who has opinions about everything...much of which is either wrong or outdated. They act like I'm a bad parent for not warming her bottles (doctor said it was ok), put her in her jacket outside (again..that isn't recommended). She acts like it's terrible that at 2 months I didn't start feeding her cereal and keeps commenting that by now my baby should be eating all the baby foods. She babysat for like 30 years and thinks that her experience is more important than science. If it was one comment, once and done, I could deal with it. But with my mother and my husband's grandma, they KEEP on about the same things over and over again. I apologize to anyone who saw my double post about this...Yahoo messed up

So lately my mom hasn't been scheduled to work these past 3 days(today being the third). Which I know annoys her. I myself have been looking for a job this past month. Been trying to follow up on some applications but still no luck. I'm obviously at home so the least I can do is help around the house. Like do the dishes, put away the plates, sweep and clean, etc. That was my routine for almost this past month. Just wake up wash and do the dishes. Other chores. Then start applying for jobs. Or sometimes my mom would throw a text at me to do something in the house and I'll do it. That was really it. Nothing out of the ordinary. Then she stopped working. The first two days were any other day i had. But this morning my mom knocked on my door and just started yelling. Mentioning things like finding a job etc. So I get up turn on my cpu. Then she says to do the dishes first. So I start, then she yells at me again. This time mentioning that I don't do anything. This kinda got me a little mad. Cause i know for a fact that I always offer for help. For example whenever we eat dinner i would ALWAYS offer to do the dishes. Sometimes my mom will say yes sometimes no. I also have been applying as well. Applying literally takes up my whole day. Then again I'm not doing much these days but applying online. But anyways she gets on me for not having a job and saying I don't do anything around here to help. Where did this anger start coming from? She also gets at me again while I'm doing the dishes. Saying "if you don't like it here you can just leave". This made me really wanna say something back. But I didn't cause it'll just get her even more mad. I just kept quiet.

I'm a 20 year old male and I've a 30 year old brother... We losed our parents in a car accident 10 years ago... Since then I've lived with my brother... I was only 10 years old, but my brother forced me to steal people's purses and when, he noticed that I could make enough money he stopped working... That's why I left school when I was 13... I've been arrested tree times because of theft... My brother is too cruel to me... Since then, till a month ago he hit me whenever he was drunk or angry at me or anyone else... He works on his body everyday and he's very strong... I can't defend myself in front of him... A month ago I decided to escape from him... Now, I'm living with my friend... Everyone tells me that I'm an ungrateful person and when I was a little boy, my brother was the only one who cared about me and I should have not left him alone... I was tired of getting beaten and being forced to rob people's money... I'm innocent, but I'm a criminal in police's eyes...

I have depression She says i don't let her enjoy anything so she leaves me suffering alone I have nobody but myself I have constant tachycardia but my heart is fine I'm afraid some day I'll have a heart attack and nobody will care because they will think it's just a panic attack

My mom won't let me ever see him again because he drinks too much and won't get help so she divorced him.I miss having that even when he was drinking. it's been three years since I saw him. When will it stop hurting?

My mother is a strange from half of her family. This seems to be normal and her family as most relatives and her family are estranged from half the family. So is this normal?

as her minister?

She said she wasnt paying for Child support If she puts me in foster care , i dont want to go ! Im going to turn 17 in june , my mom always mistreats me she calls me a hoe and her and my sister are like bestfriends i just found out my sister was 6 months pregos Yesterday and i dont think the court knows about That so could That stop my mom from placing me in a home?? Mean while "im the hoe" im not pregnant yet , but my sister is and she s not the "hoe" smh I just don t want to be placed in a home even though my mom is always so mean to me I just can t see myself in someone s house that I don t even know ! I would go to my aunts or godmothers house if that s what it comes down to I DONT want to live with my mom but I DONT want to live with a stranger , idk what could happen

Like on Christmas this past year she made my Dad take me over to her sister's to drop a gift off and made him promise to leave after 5 minutes. So my Dad went an babysat me when I am 32 years old. Had I gone alone I could have visited and stayed 20 minutes. Instead my mother was petrified I'd make a social mistake and her sister would be mean (it happened once years ago). How do I get my Mom to stop being so protective like I am a little kid? I have tried just not telling her where I am going but she seems to know when I am vague. She insists my Dad babysit me if I am seeing her family. She is bitter towards her family and only sees them at weddings and funerals. I choose to have a relationship with them as they are nice to me. I am an adult, age 32, living on my own but my mother has this obsessive protection thing. How do I get her to get over it and how do I avoid it making me feel anxious. When my mother says "don't go there, they are going to hurt you" it is always BS but it makes me feel scared going over. She also warns me "they are nice to your face but cut you down when you leave" and my Dad has told me that is absord and not to listen to my Mom. How do I get us past this? I had learning disabilities in school but normal functioning so this hyper protection my mother feels is more with me then my siblings. I am an independent normal adult though. Sometimes I am socially awkward and I have an anxiety disorder largely passed down by my mother. Any ideas?

Hi... My mom has me guarding her Trust. My brother wants to see it but Mom doesn't want him to see it. There are issues with that side of the family in which i will not go into. He has obtained an attorney who is asking me about the Trust and who has Power of Attorney. My other brother has Power of Attorney but he is not getting involved. I have 2nd Power of Attorney. What do i do?

I want to hit my dad upside the head with the biggest stick I can find I want to hold my mom down and rip out her toenails and hit her in the mouth every time she screams I want to grab my little sister up and knocked out all her pretty little teeth a sticker broom handle upper pussy didn't beat her upside the head with the broom handle I want to kill my whole family

I'm sorry if I upset anyone but I just wanna know if I was molested as a baby or not. I'm 16 now but I remember from age 2 and up I masturbated alot and my mom also mentions it all the time. I remember at our old house I got yelled at when I was younger than 4 for masturbating in front of my mom and our guest. The reason I think something happened is because I watch the Steve Wilkos show and they have cases about kids being touched all the time. After watching for awhile I know masturbating is not normal behavior for a 2 year old and they would have to learn it from somewhere. I remember my family saying when I was a baby my dad just left me at anybody's house but I just want to know if anything might have happened to me as a baby. Should I ask my mom about this and if so how do I ask?

He's been down there for like 2 weeks. they haven't fed him anything except raw ramen noodles and water. I feel really bad. when I went down to do my laundry and saw him in the dog cage I just wanted to let him out but I was afraid my bro's will do the same to me

So my girlfriend and I are expecting a child and she has a three year old already. The three year old is a boy and his discipline is a little off I'd say. About 8 months ago when we started really becoming serious she bought him a orange pistol toy gun. I told her he is way to young because he doesn't know responsibility with thing of that manner. He wouldn't stop popping it in my face, hers, and the dogs so I took it away threw it away and that was that. He would occasionally ask about the orange gun. Fast forward 8 months still not quite three yet and let me remind you not very well behaved, he swats, back talks, screams, even says bad words "he hears at his dads" oh and loves to call people rude. So I come home from work and he has a toy pistol and a rifle.... in my head I am like oh geeze here we go.... first night minor... second night hits his mom hard enough in the face with a children's golf club that she is crying. I put him to bed "no tv, no book" he wants his blanky and mom gave it to me to give to him I said no he needs to understand conciquences. I gathered all violent toys and bats and said the guns were gone she grew a fit said no I told her I didn't care what she thought they were gone until he can play with simple toys the right way no need for a toy gun.

I'm 23 this year. I stopped asking parents for money since I was 17. I worked part time while studying for diploma and received best student. A year ago I quit degree cos I couldn't focus on studies. Course was Game Tech and it's so tough, I couldn't afford to take up part time jobs. It's the one and only degree I'd take again if I ever had the chance to. Dad is self-employed and only earns through projects. Recent years he's out of job, we lacked money to pay to the bills and he's a spendthrift - use some money to gamble for fast money & cigarettes; often lose in most bets. Mum is caring housewife who is constantly being emotionally abused by dad's sick attitude. Mom often complains about dad misbehave always dirtying the house. Me & sisters have to use our money to pay the bills, home rent (dad sold our home 7yrs ago), car repair, groceries and dad complains whenever we don't give him money. Mom is also making me do the house chores. I don't mind but sometimes it takes hours of time on weekends when I should be spending it to focus on self-growth so I can perform better at work. I've been suffering from severe depression since teenage days; don't make friends, always quiet, low energy, like to sit in dark room, suicidal thoughts. Have you ever felt like you can do so much better but can't. But I'm keeping myself locked up, because of those emotional trauma my parents are giving me. I need to tell mom my every move. I won't move out cos my home needs me. I tell my dad for the past 23 years to stop smoking and he starts giving me 100 excuses why he's smoking and it's the only thing that calms him from shouting and pissing my mom off - So we have to pay for his cigarette. My mom is a foreigner so she can't work and she can't leave dad, she tried once and dad threaten mom to come back home twice. Cos he knows where my mum will go. I don't blame my mom. She has no choice and does her level best to take good care of us.

my parents are evil- on major levels. They spent the last 20 years ruining my life and can't get into all the horrible things they've done to me. I'm in my 30's now- b/c im still single (probably due to all their abuse), they feel they can control and bully me when they want. I dont live with them but live in a place my dad owns. My dad has the whole family on a family plan for the phone and I have to pay separate for my phone. I figured i'd make the payments on the 31st of the month. my fatmother and fagfather both began harassing me through text b/c i didnt pay on the 30th. It's like 30.00. They dont care about the money, they're just crazy adn want to take their anger out on me. Then my crazy dad started threatening saying he's going to remove my phone from the account. Just b/c im going to make the payment on the 31st and not the 30th? they are really crazy sick people...freaks. basically b/c i live in a place they own and don't pay rent- they feel they can abuse and harass me at will and treat me badly..they've been doing this for many years now and the abuse they've done is bad

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?

So i am 18 years old boy in school..i myself am very kind and obedient person with good looks and studious too,i have a bit of sense of humor also. My both parents are doctor. But there is a mofo guy "x" in my class who is ugly in looks,has no tallent and his family background isnt good either ,keeps abusing,bullying and tourting me from the very first day of class.He treats with so much aggressiveness like i have raped her mother ,it is really making me tremendously angry and annyoed.Once this mofo called me "fatherfucker" in front of girls to make impression amongst them,that time i just wanted to murder his whole family down brutally...while typing this my anger is crossing its limits now...i just want that killl that ************. Why the hell is he doing this to me..is there "any problem" with me??? Or,there is a problem with him??? Is he jealous to me or considering me as a "doormat"(i.e using me to heighten his image in front of others)I WHERE THE HELL IS PROBLEM ,,GUYS I AM REALLY GOING CRAZY..

think it may be because we don't have many in my area but do you live by any sex offenders and if so do they get treated badly? Ostracized? Etc? I've never personally witnessed one getting backlash in real life but I'm sure it does happen.

So I m supposed to be going an hour and a half away from where I live now and stay for about 3 days in a hotel with my best friend who is the same age as me. Mind you, this mini vacation is about a week or 2 before graduation so it s about a few months from now. I ll practically be an adult around that time so I thought I should ask in advanced to kinda give her a heads up and also see how she feels about it. I love my mom so so much and respect her but when she said no I just said ok pI understand to her face but on the inside I was kinda upset because I m an adult and she needs to learn how to let go and just let me grow up I m very responsible, respectful, I have a job, and I make good grades so I m obviously not going to do anything stupid while I m with my friend. I m still going but I feel like that s wrong since she said no but I m an adult at the same time. I guess I just feel bad for going against her authority because I ve never done that. A little advice from you guys would help a lot sorry for the long story please don t hate me lol

I'm a 20 year old male and I've become an adult when, I turned 18 (that's very obvious), but no one sees me as an adult! I behave normally like every young adult in my age... My parents keep calling me "little one"... First I thought it's okay and children are never considered as grown ups for their parents, but I've noticed that they look at me just like an incapable baby! I have a driving licence, but I don't have the right to use it! My father says that I'm just a boy and if I drive the car alone, something may happen to me... Everyone, I talk to, behave to me like a child... I don't know how to prove myself as an adult... Don't tell me to move out please! In my country things are much different than the American and European countries... I don't look younger than my age...

I've lost 4 family members in a terrible car accident weeks ago along with my bestfriend who killed himself, I've been overwhelmed and I am a teen. My friend is older and I usually am always checking on her, although this time, she is always checking on me and this was just one of those unbearable days.. I was telling her how stressed I was and how terrified and worried I've been. how I've been wanting to end everything.. She's been so helpful and supportive these past few weeks but today when she checked on me, I responded stressed out and she just put "stop" why? Do you think I'm annoying to my friend now and that she doesn't want to talk to me anymore?

I asked once a similar question but it was more about raising successful boys without men. Now I'm asking about happiness.

Hello guys! First of all thank yoiu for reading this! I think this past 2 years of my life is really horrible, full of shoutings, anxiety, and other mental and emotional issues. My mom and dad works and they decided to lend us to our grandparents in the province, and my half-sister is living there because she was adopted by my grandma. And usually my mom don't take care of us and just come here every 1 or 2 weeks, they scold us, like even in simple things, but, they don't scold or making my half-sister's son a brat. And he bullies us, and he has some ADHD, and I understand that. I feel like they are controlling us, and my mom and dad knows about this, but, they said we need to stay here for 2 months more because they bought nee 2 houses for us, and that's good, and once, my mom and half-sister together with my grandma fought, because she saw what they are doing to us in here, it's hard, but now, they are fine. My problem is everytime I got scolded or they shout on me, I got anxiety and afraid to talk back, because they might beat me up, like what my half-sister did to me, 2 times.

My sister had a bad dream that I killed her. She woke up screaming and crying she's afraid to go to sleep. She has been sick the last few days. How can I calm her down ? What should I say to her ?

So ever since my dad and I got kicked out of our last apartment, we've been living with this guy called Anthony and his daughter PJ. My dad has been friends with Anthony ever since high school, back when Anthony used to sell weed and fake IDs. I always thought they were just friends, but a few days ago they went out to the bar and didn't come back the next day. PJ did some sleuthing, and we found them at a motel, both too hungover to tell us anything. We tried asking the guy at the front desk if he knew anything, but he didn't speak English very well, so we gave up and drove our dads home. What we did find out is that the bar they went to was actually a gay bar, and ever since that incident, they've been acting really weird and flirty with each other. So, considering the circumstances, do you think my dad is gay, or is he just messing around?

So about a month or two ago for the first time in my life I woke up with a negative thought to harm my sister, I told my mom and then that negative thought went to my mom. It went away this horrible thought but now I'm kinda getting it back. The thing is I don't want to do anything, I feel that someone is doing black magic or some **** on me because I was told two years ago that my aunt was wishing bad or bad luck to my family and at that time my family was going through a lot and I even got into a episode where I felt disconnected from everyone and everything without any reason. That time my mom call a man from our church, he prayed and then that's when my aunts name pop up on my house phone ( that time she didn't call for about a year or two), also the vibs in the room was dark and felt uncomfortable. My uncle was told years ago that my aunts son was throwing wishing bad on my uncle. I never in my whole 16 years got something like this, I would never want to harm I can't even harm a bug. To think about getting a knife to do harm is far from me. Me and my mom do get the same negativity (not to harm) but for other stuff, like sometimes we get it at the same time and it's scary. I do deal with pts but I know for sure it isn't that because dealing with pts all I want is the people I love the most around me not gone. Once when me and my mom were sleeping we got the same image of people dress in black in our house with the same voices. I also had people do voodoo on me years ago

i'm 18 and my friend and i were planning to go to new york for a few days during spring break. i'm 18 so i should be allowed to do what i want right? i mean, one time i asked her if i could go somewhere and she said "you're 18 why are you asking me i cant stop you from going anywhere" but when i told her i was planning to go to new york she said i cant? im just not understanding her logic? first she says she cant stop me from going anywhere and now shes trying to stop me from going somewhere. im frustrated.

A year ago I quit degree so I could work to earn money to pay the bills. I try to stay positive but I failed, I shouted at mum saying she doesn't understand me at all. Who are my friends or who I'm seeing - I have to tell her Wherever I'm at, or coming home late - I have to tell her I work in Sales and have to meet my customers and I have to tell her my every single move. On weekends/holiday, I usually wake up to help mom with house chores then cook lunch. (Yes it's a lot of work until noon) I'm always happy to help mum like walking with her at the mall, grocery shopping and spending time with her. Problem is, I get tired easily after work and barely have time for myself and I get very upset. Less time for myself means no time for shape up,feed my soul and mind. My performance in work is getting worse. I feel bad for myself everyday. So today I became so moody, started tearing while cooking lunch and I started shouting. Mum was scolding me and say she never stopped me from doing what I want and I was the one who doesn't understand the meaning of family. She said I always kept everything to myself. But the problem is nobody ever asked what's wrong with me. I tried to keep them happy and in the end, I failed myself. I feel myself a failure everyday. I'm so mad at myself and I want to change and improve, but all I'm doing every morning is wake up to house chores and cooking and spending time with them. What should I do? I'm so stressed out. I'm upset because I was awarded top student. But I had to stop college because of family. And mum doesn't understand how it means so much to be good at what I'm doing. I'm upset because I was awarded top student. But I had to stop college because of family. And mum doesn't understand how it means so much to be good at what I'm doing.

I'm 18, and one of the young ones out of us kids.. every time my family or cousins "accidentally" cuss around me they always say "OH sorry Jessica" Like they apologize for it. Why do they do that? I'm older and I go to high school where every bad thing is said lol...

I'm 27 and kind of an alcoholic I was diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder/ Depression.. I punched all of my ex girlfriends in the face and black their eyes and now nobody wants to be around me.. Sometimes I rage out on my family members I almost hit my mother.. How do I fix this???..

And then made up but then things were never the same and every thing was uncomfortable and awkward?Help?

I m 19, living with my parents, going to a community college. I m not really disciplined anymore because my parents say I m an adult. But generally I still don t get in trouble that much and never really have. I ve had a few rebellious moments growing up but never anything super bad. I do chores, I have a job, I have 3.4 GPA, etc. Well, my parents separated almost a year ago and just got divorced last month. My sister has been horrendous ever since. She s been sneaking out of the house, slacking off in school and lying about it, lying period, lashing out at me and my parents, throwing a fit every time she s told to do anything responsible, treating me and my parents like her ******* slaves, stealing my clothes and ruining them, and stealing money from me and my mom. She s out of control and my parents don t do **** about it. Every time they try to punish her she throws a tantrum and they cave. When I was growing up, they were much more strict. I was grounded for cussing at them, talking back, not doing homework, lying, sneaking junk food, etc. I d be grounded and I d get extra chores. Meanwhile my sister doesn t get disciplined at all. I don t know if they re just excusing her behavior because of the divorce but the way she s acting is just unacceptable. And I can t call them out on it or else they ll get defensive I can t discipline her because I m not her mom and I ll get yelled at and I can t move out because I have nowhere else to live. What am I supposed to do?

I met a woman and fell in love with her. I found out she was divorced with 3kids living on alimony. Even with a job she ran out of money, as according to two lawyers, she.got screwed in her divorce agreement. She signed off without getting a lawyer because things were so bad. Ive been with her for 3 years, and developed a lot of feelings for her. She is going all in, as in spending the last of her money to go back to court so she can at least get her kids half custody and recieve child support. But im 32 and she is 53. I could just walk away, but naturally I don't want her to suffer or be out on the streets

He won't fight for us either. Both are hurting me.

I'm 23, a fresh graduate with a bachelors in PH education, and am now searching for a full time job while just returning to my part time of food lion. 2017 is supposed to be a changer, and so far I've been doing good, working on myself and starting slow with little things like not biting my nails. One thing I wanna change is my openness about my personal life. It's just a habit to share stuff about myself including depression and relationship mistakes and it's naturally deterred people which I ruminate on. I am very open with my family to a point THEY tell me not to tell them stuff. A fear of mine is screwing up in a big way, I just hung out with my cousin who is 26, had a 1 year old, and is living with her child's fathers mother and lying to her family about an apartment that doesn't exist. I'm studying investing and have dreams about moving to TX and eventually getting to a point where I don't need to work. A baby, a dependent relationship, and struggling for your last dollar is not on my list, even though I'm broke now, my parents know and help me stick to my plans and nag when I eat out or spend my money. Should I be honest with them still?

Ok, I know the title sounds a little ridiculous -- and maybe it is, but right now, I'm absolutely confused. Just to break it all down, I'm 24 years old and disabled. I was born with a rare birth defect which has caused me to have severe breathing problems as well as epilepsy. I often have seizures, and cannot walk for more than a few minutes at a time, so I never really leave the house. That said, I've lived a very sheltered life with my mother, and beyond what we do on a daily basis, I have very few social connections. Anyway.. to get to the point: the other night I was in my room playing "My Little Pony" on Xbox 360 when I heard a loud thud from my mother's bedroom. Instantly I was worried, and after a moment of silence, I decided to rush down and open her door to see if she was okay. At first, I didn't see her, but when I called out, she stood up from behind her bed wearing only a bra from what I could tell. The look on her face was that of horror, which confused me, so I asked what had happened. She told me that she fell, and basically begged me to stay away. This seemed a bit odd and made no sense, so I took a few steps into the room and made my way toward her. This was when it got really weird. As a approached the bottom of her bed, making my way around to the other side where she was, she began to scream at me -- telling me to get out. Thinking she was just embarrassed from what had happened, I continued my way to her, worried that she was hurt. Well.. to say the least, that's when I became horrified myself.. Once I got to her and knelt down to help her up, I noticed that she had no pants or underwear on. To top it off, I saw that between her legs.. something was hanging -- dangling, and honest to god, it looked like a rather large penis. Naturally I flinched away.. as did she.. and for a moment we were silent. I abruptly got up.. took one more glance down.. I just had to, and to my terror, it was definitely a penis -- an erect one with rather plump testicles at that. Sickened, I quickly rushed out of the room and closed the door behind me. Since that day, about a week ago, we've not said a word to each other. Every once in awhile we'll run into each other in the house, but we always pass by quickly and basically ignore each other's existence. So that brings me to the question here. Is this at all normal? Can anyone explain to me, how or why my mom would have a penis? I've had no contact with my father since I was born -- apparently he wasn't happy with my health problems, but I really want to know what's going on here. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Is it normal for a mother to have a penis? How can this be? I know I'm grasping at straws here.. but I want to understand..

Long story but basically my mom died having me and my dad beat the crap out of me until they welt marks on me when changing for gym. They took both me and my older bro into foster care. My older brother blamed me for being in foster care. We got split up when I was 12 and he was 14 or 15. I'm not sure where he is, but I googled his name in one of those phone book websites and I have about 150 names to contact. I'm 19 now and that would make him 22 or 23 now. (I forgot when his bday is). I think about him a lot and wonder what he's doing. The biggest thing I wonder is if he still hates me. Should I try to contact him? I'm kind of hesitant. Maybe I shouldn't ask a question if I don't want to hear the answer.

They refuse to leave my house! They don't want to walk 5 hours to town where the jobs are at, they say walking 10 hours a day are stupid. They are very old, too old to live with me. They are 17 and 18. I took them out of school in middle school they have never done high school work. They have no money. I refuse to drive them, teach them how to drive and I will NOT buy them a bike. Why are they so stupid?

What can she do ?

Would this be considered love? Help pleaseeee? People say that you don't know love until u have had a child. Although I have not conceived, I believe I would be considered a parent in every way that mattered. Although he is my brother, I have taken care of him since he came out the womb. In the absence of his father, I stepped up while my mother(such a beautiful angel) worked tirelessly to provide. I am also very young and I haven't had much of a life of my own yet bc I take care of him. This was my choice bc I couldn't watch my mother struggle to work and take care of my brother while I partied n lived life. That would've destroyed me! I do not regret it nor do I resent it but i think it takes selflessness and strength to sacrifice some of the best days in a persons life to be there for my family. Is what I do an act of love or do I not know what love is yet?
