Family: Question: Treated unfairly?

Question: Treated unfairly?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 01:31 PM PDT

Hi I am 16 year old boy and the second child of 5. Samantha (19) Me (16) Adam (13) Andrew (10) Anthony (8) As you can see, I am the oldest brother and I have to "set the example". Anyways, my parents completely don t treat Andrew and Anthony the way Samantha, Me, and a little bit of Adam at all! For instance- my dad said that me and Sam would fight all the time. And we would get the wooden spoon, belt, spankins, etc... my dad would even pin me to the ground and grab me by the throat to have me learn my lesson. So that is what my sister and I experienced. Now a days Andrew and Anthony haven t gotten any of those!! They have even admitted it! They have told me! They always are sent to the corner, room, etc... and they say they have it bad. It posses me off and I told my parents they do nothing about it when my younger brothers fight, scream, WHINE, and are total losers! They are so annoying and are slobs, and priviledge. They get kindles, iPad, Xbox, etc.,. I had NONE OF THAT WHEN I WAS THEIR AGE! I was an A B student too in 1-8 grade, and my younger ones are C D and rarely B and they aren t even punsihed! My dad yelled at me to shut my mouth when I proven facts. M younger brothers can t even lay out their own clothes, turn on the shower, make their breakfast, do their OWN HOMEWORK, and cry and run to my parents room when it is a bad storm. My sister and I always talk about how we did none of that crap. They are brats and my parents refuse to accept it.

Question: Wife & I are fighting about letting our daughter model?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 01:30 PM PDT

Our daughter is 17, tall, blue eyed blonde, like her mom. My wife's friend is a photographer & they were talking & out of nowhere the topic of " She should model" came up. My wife liked the idea, my daughter loves it, & I hate it because I fear everything that could happen. Addicted to pills, anorexia, etc. So for the past week I've been in these 2 v 1 fights & I'm just getting tired of it. Wife thinks it'd be a great opportunity that could " lead to something", but i'm skeptical Where do I go from here?

Question: OK to fuss at mother who lied and messed up some plane tickets, costing me $200?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 01:24 PM PDT

My mother flies frequently. If have high-level status and slews of miles on one airline. She gives sob stories if she ever has to fly coach, so I told her to just pay me the coach ticket price before booking a ticket, and I would use my miles to book her a first class ticket. She does sometimes, but recently booked her own coach ticket (at the back of the plane) and gave a sob story about how hard her life, of flying coach, is. I was able to get her ticket information, so, without telling her, I used miles (and paid about $200 in fees) to get her in first class. She said thank you, but she directly lied to me when I asked her about the ticket (she stated, in email, that the plane was coach only), and if she had followed my request, I'd have gotten $400, rather than paying $200. OK to tell her, "do not ever book a plane ticket yourself again!", perhaps replying to the email where she lied? Thanks.

Question: It has been more than 5 years. Should I apologize to him?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 01:20 PM PDT

I dated this guy and it looks like I overreacted. There were some things he said that made me believe that he was trying to get rid of me. I now know that probably wasn't the case. I even know that his kiss was the best kiss I ever had. But it's been so long should I or not?

Question: What would the relationship be between my grandpas brother and me?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:55 PM PDT

Question: What do I do?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:55 PM PDT

I missed my sister's baby shower because I was really busy and didn't get around to reading what the plan was on Facebook in the family chat group. It was a long read. I missed my sister's baby shower, how do excuse my way out of this one?

Question: Do anyone have experience adopting kids that required IEP?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:51 PM PDT

I really don't know much about it but would like to know as much as possible? do the kids usually grow out of this

Question: How can I calm my brother down ?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:50 PM PDT

My older brother has been acting more angry than usual. He's on drugs so he gets high and pissed off at every little thing now he's doing it more than usual. He's pissed at iTunes it's been so slow this month. We have Frontier pretty much everything is slow but iTunes is usually the only faster thing we have now it's like everything else as he would say slower thank ******* turtles. He spends all day on it he's mad because he can never go outside because his computer would sleep then he'll be worried he'll have to start over. So he doesn't go out very long when it's on. I have the same problem we don't know why iTunes got slow all of a sudden but it's pissing him off. Usually a smoke calms him down but he's had it three times already this morning. He's also not feeling good today which is also probably why he's so angry. How can I calm him down ?

Question: My sister keeps abusing me. Help?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 10:52 AM PDT

My sister who is 21yrs old (I am 13) keeps hitting me. It usually goes that she insults me, I very LIGHTLY tap her, then she starts swinging punches at me. Every time I consult my parents they end up getting me in trouble, taking away MY games that I PAYED FOR, and she can play them. I'm tired of my sister thinking she can treat me this way. Is there anything I can do? Please help me.

Question: How do I get my Mom and Dad to let me see and have a relationship with their families?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 10:23 AM PDT

I am an adult but they keep me in the dark about invitations like someone else described in a question on here. It is because they don't get along well with the families but that is not my fault and I am not sensitive to what they are sensitive to other then with my Mom's sister and her daughter maybe. I really feel I have been cheated out by my parents' immaturity. I live on my own and could contact the people but they always go to my parents with the invites saying "bring the kids, grown and little" and my parents don't tell me unless it is at Christmas time. I feel bad about myself because of this and sad. My parents haven't been willing to change in the past but I haven't brought it up in 5 years. What do I do? SATS---If I don't know there is an event how do I find out? Unless I stalk people by driving by their houses I won't know and stalking is NOT an option.

Question: My father has asked me never to speak to my aunt again unless I see her by accident. Should I follow his request?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:54 AM PDT

She is my mother's sister and he says she is toxic. She has cut her son out of her life because he made small flaws as a teen and is close to his Dad, her ex-husband. I hear she reaches out to him some, just cuts him down too much. My Dad says that is abuse and her cutting him out. She also likes to stir up gossip. I like her and don't mind seeing her though I agree she has some narcissistic traits. I am 32 so can choose who to associate with but my Dad says he will be putting road blocks in my relationship with her because she is toxic. My mother says follow my Dad's request and she is the sister of this aunt. So do I follow his request and just cut the aunt out of the family tribe even if she is a relative? Do I consider her dead like we did with my sister's ex-husband?

Question: I saw my brother having sex with a girl (he is 19). Should I rat him out? I am 31,......?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:51 AM PDT

The scumbag had some girl we have never seen in his bedroom and I see them having SEX on the security camera our parents put in to stop him from drugs. My mother asked me to stay over for the weekend since our parents are out of town to keep an eye on him and my sister (also 19 as they are twins). My sister is okay, my brother is the scum of the earth.

Question: Should I tell my parents my sister drinks?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:45 AM PDT

I'm 16 and my sister is 15.. I saw on snapchat last night she was drinking and partying at 2 am. I know I should tell them but we're out of town right now and I don't know if I should now? Because they can't do anything since we're out of town? she's at a friends house

Question: I have a selfish, spoiled, and toxic sister. Do I have to love her when she is so rotten?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:38 AM PDT

We are adults so don't live together. She was a bad child growing up but not nearly as bad as she is as an adult. Our parents did not discipline her. She'd get yelled at but all punishments were lifted if she screamed enough. So obviously she turned out rotten.

Question: My Dad is too selfish and cold to support my relationships. How do I form adult relationships with people despite my Dad leaving me out?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:36 AM PDT

For example, his sister had a baptism this weekend for her new grandson. My Dad and sisters went, but he left me out because I obsess about relationships. He has a toxic thought that he is helping me. I am not missing out and self-mutilating as a result. Meanwhile my mother has left me out of her mother's birthday party because she doesn't want me around her step-brother who is an alcoholic (I can handle it as I am 27 and not five). I don't bring these subjects up in front of any relatives as I don't want to seem obsessive like I obviously am here on Yahoo (I ask two or three questions a week on this subject). I am now a second rate and little known relative because my parents don't inform me. As a kid they may have thought they were protecting me on my mother's side of the family from my grandfather's alcoholism but as an adult there is no danger and hasn't been since I was about eleven and my grandfather died. Now I am either a victim of their ignorance or am being used as a pawn for remaining conflicts. What do I do? I am so alone because I can't have extended family ties due tot his. I am an independent adult living on my own but treated as a small child.

Question: Can I have my brother arrested for assault or domestic violence?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:23 AM PDT

I'm 18 and my brother is 25 and we both still live at home. I still live here because I'm going to school and working, but he just refuses to move out on his own, get a job, or do anything else besides hang with his friends. Usually my mother would keep him in line, but she's sick and had to go to the hospital. It's been about a month since she's been gone and he just keeps getting worse. He steals things from the house, invites a bunch of people over while my dad would be at work, and all kinds of other things. He's been such a terrorist to our house that my parents and I had to get locks on our doors with keys, just so he would stop stealing out things. He doesn't contribute anything and just takes and causes problems for all of us. Since my mom's been gone I've been helping out around the house by cooking, grocery shopping, and all that stuff, especially since my dad is handicapped and can't move very well. The other night he just confronted me for no reason and got in my face, ready to fight. I was just minding my own business and then all of a sudden he hit me in the face. We fought for a little and he ended up chipping my tooth, so now I have to go to a dentist. I think that he'll do it again and if he does, will that justify calling the cops? I'm not afraid to fight him or anything, but that's not solving the problem. He's been nothing but a problem for my parents, little brother, and I for years, and nothing is being done. My parents keep threatening to kick him out but they're empty threats and he knows that. It would be better for all of us if he wasn't here. So would I have to wait for him to do something else to call the police, or can I call them now about the other night? And would they actually do anything about it, considering that we both live there and we're brothers?

Question: Am I a loser?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 09:02 AM PDT

I moved back from Wisconsin four months ago because I couldn't stand the winters. I'm a Registered Nurse, so I found a job easily when I came back to California. I am currently living with my parents. My mom works, but my dad had to retire early for health reasons, so they need help with money. At my new job, my co-workers are teasing me because I want to live with my parents instead of moving near my work (which is an hour away). They say things like, "Geez, when are you going to move here? Oh, I see, you're 26 and living with your parents. I guess it's cheaper living for you." Then they laugh about it. Am I being a loser just because I don't want to waste money on rent like they do? It makes me feel like they judge me because I choose not to struggle.

Question: Did you grow up fatherless?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 08:50 AM PDT

I don't have a father. He left when I was born leaving my mom all alone. I lived with my mom and I living in the same room at my grandma's house for the first couple of years in my life. Then my mom found this other guy (who I still don't call him my dad till this day) and they made kids. I have a little brother and a little sister. I feel like the outcast of the family but it really doesn't effect me. I am very shy, thankfully I have a couple of friends who always check up on me. So yeah Did you grow up fatherless? ( I'm 13 years old)

Question: Did you grow up fatherless?

Question: My mom has ptsd, how can I help her and let her know I really am here for her?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 08:13 AM PDT

I'm 15 and my mom has ptsd, this happened from her finding both her parents dead when she was 16 and having an emotionally abusive and toxic sister and father. I won't go into more detail. Up until I was in 1st grade she seemed fine. She has these cycles where she's fine for a few days and she's very happy then it changes and sometimes lasts for weeks. She doesn't talk to me, she hides in her room, she doesn't want to go anywhere, she stayes home all day, she eats all the food in the house. When I come from school I do the dishes and clean up but the next day things are a mess again. She always seems angry and dismisses me, she doesn't take care of herself either. She keeps dirty dishes in her room, doesn't shower, doesn't change her clothes as far as I know I don't see her wash her face or anything else. I feel alone and helpless every time this happens which is often. I don't know what to do. Even when I try she just seems angry at me. None of what happened to her is my fault and because of this I can't turn to her when I need emotional support which is one thing tremendously need right now in my life. How do I help her? How do I encourage her to come do things with me and take care of herself again? I want her to know that I love her and that I care about her but when I tell her this I feel like she doesn't hear me and doesn't want me here.

Question: What is the relation between my son and my aunt's kids?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 08:13 AM PDT

What is the relationship between my son and my aunt's children? Are they second cousins or is that relation title given somewhere else? I know my aunt would be his "great-aunt" so it makes me think they would be some sort of cousins. She says her children are like another "uncle and aunt" to my son but that just seems wrong to me.

Question: How to act very formal?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 08:06 AM PDT

I am going to meet some family, and I was wondering how to act formal in speech and manner when I am with them. Please help and please give me a good answer or at least a decent one. Thank you!

Question: Should I move?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 07:49 AM PDT

I'm not happy where I'm currently living. It's a stuck, go-nowhere, situation. My fiancée doesn't want to move away from her mom, but there's nothing here in the town we live in. I just left my job because we were planning on moving, but she changed her mind. There's a lot of opportunity, and a better life over on the western side of the state. She refuses to go because it's too far away from her mom. I love her, but I'm debating whether or not to leave. I'm stuck. Help?

Question: I lost respect for my Mother?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 07:36 AM PDT

I used to think highly of Her and take no issue. However, since I have involuntarily been forced to live with Her because of a stroke I have found Her to be intolerable. As it turns out, I just didn't see all these negative qualities She possesses because I lived out of state. She is childish, very lazy, and on the religious side. She now gets angry at me being around because She can't get away with being as lazy(all day pajama days) as when I was gone before the stroke. Not to mention, She's very fat and "tired," all of the time. So much so, it appears to be a health issue to be THAT tired frequently.

Question: Is it my fault or my moms?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 07:26 AM PDT

She asked if I wanted to go to Walmart with her and I was like no thx. She said " okay I guess we aren't going" I said " no, Mom you can go" she kept saying no, so I said " sorry i feel like it's my fault" she told me to get out, but I apologized again and stayed. After she asked what I wanted for breakfast I said " I don't know" she claimed I rolled my eyes and had an attitude and everything went awkward. I've been in my room for three hours hoping she'd calm down, but it hasn't happened. Wht do I do? She thinks I "always have an attitude" when she is mad she do won't tell and forget about it like most people she ignores me for hours and stays on her room pouting.

Question: Wife doesn't get sexual innuendo. It annoys me because i feel like my humor is being rebuffed.?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 07:21 AM PDT

She always says she is innocent, but it's like she is attempting to be a nun. Even during sex, she acts like she doesn't know what's going on. She obviously enjoys it, but acts like she has no active part in it. I have actually told her how I feel but it hasn't really had any impact. Solutions?

Question: Wife had her third (at-fault) accident in two years which makes her practically un-insurable. She is a stay at home mom...?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 07:16 AM PDT

So this allows me to pick up some of the slack. But, what irritates me most is that she just sulks about it. I understand her disappointment, because I feel it too. But I'm not upset at her and have chosen to move on from it as best as I can. Any advice to get her to snap out of it and move on?

Question: Is my mother being ungrateful?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 06:13 AM PDT

Ever since I got a job, my mom has been asking for money nonstop & it's irritating (only because I'm trying to save for a car). I don't mind her asking me for money when it comes to important things she really needs because I still live with her. My mom obviously favors my brother over me because my brother doesn't have a job & she never nagged him about not contributing financially. I only felt she was ungrateful because it turned from complaining about me not paying any bills to not paying rent. I give her money for things she needs and that's not enough for her. She often remarks about how I do "nothing" around the house. She even accused me of running down the gas in the cars despite the fact that I rarely use the cars because I work full time all day.

Question: Why does my mom overreact sbout everything?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 06:13 AM PDT

My mom overreacts about a lot (in my opinion). For example, one day I didn't get up at the time I was supposed to for school (alarm didn't go off) so she poured water on me, and as a result she said I looked at her really rudely, which I probably did. And she got upset at me. She yelled and cursed and said I was ungrateful, because if anything I should be happy she even woke me up at all. Today, when I wanted to talk to her about something at school, I started talking, and she cut me off and was like, "I need you to hurry up because I'm busy. It better be important." And it wasn't what she said, but the way she said it. Anyways I told her that it wasn't important, but I wish I had more time to talk to her; and basically how everytime I try to talk to her she says she's busy. She got really mad about that too, because apparently she was filling out paperwork for me (and that's why she was busy). She said I'm so ungrateful, because I'm complaining about her being busy, and if I'm being honest I don't see the big deal. It's just, sometimes I feel ignored at home. The only time we really talk is when she's yelling at me about something. Like I"ll do something good, or get an award and she'll find out and be like "When did that happen, why didn't you tell me?" And I don't tell her because she doesn't ask and when I do try to say something she's busy. And it's not like I don't appreciate what she does, but I'm human too. I gett upset and I complain soemtimes: Don't we all?

Question: From the answers I got I know nobody lives forever, I just want my mom at least see grandkids before anything. I hope this isn't a vision?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 06:06 AM PDT

I'm having an hard time getting through the day with school and just everything because in December I had since an vision that I lost my mom I could see it, taste it, and feel it like that feeling of not having her and being super sad and lost feeling and I was up watching tv. The last time I got this for my great grandmother and it all happen the way I saw it and felt it. All I was doing was on the way to the store and then I was making cookies for her birthday when I got those vision for my great grandmother, like since I was young I would get these vibes and stuff saying my mom won't live long, and a month before getting that vision I was one day eating something watching tv when I got this ugly gut feeling I was not going to have her and that feeling that I can like almost taste it came on and then I saw an orb on the side of my eye it was like orange but it disapear so fast Before I got that vision I was happy and fine with positive thoughts and I had feeling of my mother die anytime at all, this just comes I'm a very busy person and this is messing me up right now My mom is in her early 40s, she deals with anxiety and has a hernia by her stomach, no one lives forever but I want her to at least live life and see her grandkids when my sisters and I have kids someday because my mom doesn't do any thing with her life, she takes care of to much and worries for a lot of stuff

Question: Will my family ever fully trust me again, or are my efforts futile?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 05:58 AM PDT

I am a former heroin addict/alcoholic. I led a very turbulent life from 13 to 25. Me saying I put my parents and sister through hell is a huge understatement. However I now have two years clean. I have heard the "takes ten years to walk out of the woods, after walking in for ten years" However I have made a complete 180 with 0 hiccups. My family, mom especially, is still VERY suspicous of me and constantly throws my former life in my face.

Question: What "relation" is my Parent's Cousins to me? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 05:50 AM PDT

Are they considered cousins? nephews? uncles/aunts?

Question: How to convince parents to allow sheltered kid to stay at an unsupervised coed sleepover?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 05:46 AM PDT

let me start off by saying I am a senior in highschool and have gone to school with the same friends since kindergarten. Not one of us has ever been to a party or drank alcohol or engaged in any shady business. We're literally the epitome of the goody two shoes kids; we're always completely honest with our parents and they trust us. So my school only has senior prom and not a junior prom, so this will be my first and last. We have a group of 10 girls and 10 boys, with only one couple romantically involved. My one friend's grandma has two houses, and is allowing us to stay in the one she doesn't live in after prom to hangout and sleepover. When I asked my parents about this coed and unsupervised sleepover, they immediately freaked out and were horrified at the fact that I would even ask. I'm trying to see from their perspective because I'm so disappointed and was looking forward to it. I guess my main argument is that I'm a really good kid, straight a's AP student, and I've never done anything wrong, so they should trust me enough to let me do this kind of thing. Also, I'm living at home and commuting to a nearby college I'm the fall and I'm annoyed because I don't want to be treated like a kid. My parents are very religious and I go to an all girls school, so they're really weird about me being around boys in the first place. If anyone has any advice on how to make them see my viewpoint and/or to convince them, please let me know!

Question: My parent isn't supporting my university choice?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 04:50 AM PDT

I am an only child to two married parents. I do however have older half-siblings from my dad's first marriage. However, I am my mom's only child. I am also a girl, if that matters. Now, there has been a university out my province that I've wanted to go to since I was ten, when I attended my sister's graduation there. My parents were happy about this, because they wanted me to go there too. Now, I am still heart-set on this university. Like I want to go there & only there. I received my acceptance, however I also received an acceptance at a university that is much closer to home. Now, previously my mom was one hundred percent on board for me going to the uni that I wanted to go to since I was ten, however now she is not nearly as supportive? & she is trying to convince me to stay closer to home? She's also trying to make other excuses for why I would want to go there. She said that I only want to go there because of a boy that I know & she keeps asking me why I want to go there: "give me three good reasons!" & I don't understand her change in attitude? Like it makes me so emotional cause I know this is what I want & it's MY future and I should be making this choice, yet it seems she's trying to make the choice for me. She keeps shoving the university that's closer to home in my face & talking of how amazing it is. But I just don't want to go there. I feel sick when I think of having to go there. I don't know what to do? Any advice?

Question: Mentally retarded sister threatens to embarrass the family. How can we send her to a mental hospital?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 04:47 AM PDT

My parents are worried that my mentally-retarded 30-something year old sister who pretends to be sane, would do something stupid to embarrass the family. She thinks someone rapes her all the time, she thinks radio signals hurt her private parts, she thinks the government is watching her, but it has been proven that no one's there. She also takes a poop and doesn't flush. She also freeloads and doesn't have a job. She is useless to the family. She threatened to upload nudes to Facebook to annoy my parents, which was why my parents wanted to send her to a mental hospital but there is no proof that she is retarded. However last time I took her to a government clinic and the doctor said she is mentally unsound. What should I or my parents do to send her to the mental hospital?

Question: If our parents had never met, then wouldn't we just have a different mother?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 03:13 AM PDT

If our father had sex with other women, then there's still 50/50 chance we would be born but have a different mother.

Question: Suddenly im starting to look like my sister wtf?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 03:11 AM PDT

Can this happen? I'm 18 and she's 23 We used to look nothing like each other whatsoever. You probably couldnt tell we was related. When I was 15 I looked exactly like my cousin when she was the same age. I asked my mum months ago who I look like. She said she doesn't know but I use to look like my cousin But then a few weeks ago my sisters best mates mum called me my sisters name and said "she's getting like her isn't she?" and my mum said "they are alike yeah" When I look at myself in the mirror I don't see a resemblance much but idk how this has happened. In the past few weeks out of nowhere I'm starting to look like my sister wtf?!

Question: My self-confidence is below 0 now...?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 02:50 AM PDT

Do all people around me think I'm a dumbass without feelings just because I'm a 15yrs old teenager? I live with my mom and grandmother, I've never asked them for anything and when I did it yesterday, they just made fun of me and are still laughing today... So, in my school there's students from 1st grade to 10th, so I'll have to change school when I start 11th grade. I don't really want to go to that school since it got rated 4/10 and I just don't like it because people there are rude... then, me and my friend came up with idea to go to school in another city which is 50km away. We are planning to rent a 1 room for both in that city so It's not that expensive... I told all of this to my mom and she just laughed and said 'are you crazy?'. Yeah, it's going to be hard since our family is pretty poor, but I'm sure there's a way to earn money for a 17yr old? DOES THIS IDEA REALLY SOUND THAT FUNNY? IS IT BAD TO WANT TO GO TO A GOOD SCHOOL?

Question: Help! I think my brother is perverted?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 02:32 AM PDT

I'm 15 and my brother is 23 and my brother usually comes home late at night because of work. Maybe around 12-3::00 am he comes home. Today when he came home I heard the sound of the garage opening and assumed it was him, so I tried going back to sleep. A few moments later , (im wearing shorts) i think he entered my room and tried lifting them up a bit. Although I'm not sure if he did cause it could've been just me idk, I was facing the other way. I'm kinda creeped out now though. Is there a way to find out if did do that? Should I stay up every night and see if he does it again? I'm really uncomfortable now, I can't go to sleep it's 2:30 am.

Question: Is she pretty?

Question: I do not wear a headscarf?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 01:23 AM PDT

I'm not calling it a hijab because I believe that is the covering of the body. Anyway I cover my body but not my hair. Is this a sin? I have always dressed modestly (with a long Cardigan) but I used to cover my hair too but I realised I wasn't wearing it for the right reasons and these days men don't even look at hair, just the curves and the actual body right? Opinions? P.s. I still cover my chest with a scarf

Question: Food and Entertainment Budget?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:51 AM PDT

My borther and I are going with our family on a trip to Pigeon Forge, TN and my mother is giving us money. I want to know average costs for two teens to eat and for entertainment.

Question: Am I a bad person for not caring about my dad?

Posted: 29 Apr 2017 12:29 AM PDT

I haven't seen my father in 2 years almost, I always hated him as a kid and as an adult I basically cut off contact with him. He was never a dad and he made my child hood hell, he never did anything for my mom, sister and I and he struggled so many times because of how selfish he was. Eventually for the best my parents got divorced and I just never was very fond of him. He has disappointed me in every walk of life adult and as a kid. My older sister texted me today telling me they found out he has lung cancer, and to be honest I could not give less of a dam. I am a 23 year old guy and to be honest i don't feel one bit of sympathy for him.

Question: What to do living with divorced parents situation?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:58 PM PDT

I'm going to try my best to explain this. Basically, I live full time at my dads. This is because I used to live with my mom after the divorce, but she got too crazy and I had to leave. She was never physically abusive, but she hurt me with her words and once tackled me when I told her to leave. All of my cool furniture is at my moms house, my cat, and I find myself missing it. My mom has gotten better but I find it hard switching houses. I only have a bus pass for my dads house and would need a ride to school for my mom, which annoys me because I'd rather be independent. I guess my question is, what do I do? Do I visit my mom more often during school weeks? Do I take my stuff back? Have you lived with divorced parents, and what worked for you? I don't like switching around because i always forget something. My moms house is also distant from my friends and there is nothing to do. We usually just watch tv wheras my dads is my childhood town and he pushes me to be productive and outgoing

Question: My Dad is affected with diabetes and this has made him ignorant and he gets irritated really quickly on the smallest thing ever....?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:27 PM PDT

he has no activity because he is retired from his job and he gets upset on the smallest things ever and stops talking and eating.......he behaves as if me and my mom don't even consider him a person...no matter how politely we try to talk to him.. he gets irritated and just becomes really offensive towards us

Question: Can I return food I bought with my EBT card?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:23 PM PDT

I bought food and treats to make for my son and my daughter s birthday. My dad just offered to buy pizza instead. Can I return the party foods I bought, and buy everyday foods? If so, how long will it take for benefits to return to my card? Texas snap benefits. No cash benefits. Divorced single mom, four kids, live on my own, yes I work, no I m not lazy, taxpayer. For all the judges out there.

Question: I get really angry when things don't go perfectly along with how I planned them, so when it doesn't go the way I want it?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:12 PM PDT

When things don't go as I want them to go I start to get really angry. I punch myself near my knees, on my face, I punch a wall or I even bang my head against it. I really think this isn't an ok thing to do. But the thing is it could literally be anything from a misplaced hair or an awful looking line on my writting. It could be anything, I don't know what to do. If I tell my mom she'll probably ground me or something and if I don't it could get way worse.

Question: My mom never showed me any support?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 10:00 PM PDT

Growing up my mother never showed me any support( I'm 19 now). I always wanted her to show me emotional support and for her to open up to me as I would to her. I would do anything for her to like me, especially when I was a kid. When I was younger, I used to try to do things she likes just for her to bond with me like she does my older brother. She never did. I keep feeling heartbroken and abandon. I got a job at 16 she didn't care, my brother got a job at 15, and she took him out to eat. My older brother graduated she threw a party and cried when I graduated she just said congratulations and moved on. She never showed me any support till this day. I got two jobs now trying to get a car so she wouldn't have to worry about taking me to work and again nothing from her. I am a full-time college student trying to work two jobs, and she would always try to find something wrong about me to say to other family members or her friends. But my brother wants to drop out of college to become a rapper, and she supports him with everything and even take off a day of work to hang out with him, she never offered to do that with me. I cried all the time trying to get a connection with my mother, but nothing seems to work. I am hurt seeing all my friends tell me how they bond with their parents, and I can never do that with mine. My mom only doesn't care anymore, or I should say never have. I tried talking to her, but she gets mad and blames me.Please help what do I do?

Question: I have problem with my mom.... I need opinions.?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 09:47 PM PDT

I got into a car accident two months ago. It wasn't my fault, and I made the mistake letting my mom handle both of the insurance company's deals with me. I have never been in a wreck before, and since it wasn't my fault I didn't know how it all worked. My mom has been in a few accidents before and I figured she would be able to work something out for me. My mom is a flight attendant and a single mother. I live with her, but I always have the house to myself. I had to quit my job because I couldn't get to work and had no money for uber. I got a new job, but in order to start it I need a way to get there. My mom used the insurance check that came for me to get a new car, and bought herself a 2017 Jeep Patriot. I'm 21 and my mom doesn't want me using her car. I offered to drop her off at the airport so that she could go to work, and so could I but she doesn't want me doing that. She won't even allow me to use her car to go right up the street. The car I had before that got totaled after my wreck, I paid most of the payments on it and it was almost paid for. Now, she won't help me at all. I feel very stuck. I know a lot of people have it way worse than I do, but can someone agree that there is something wrong with all of this? I work my *** off and all I want to do is work. Now I can't even leave my house. What is it that I can do?

Question: My dad is cheating on my mom...Should I tell her?

Question: Can laziness be genetic sometimes?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 09:08 PM PDT

I have a half brother who's sister is lazy. I noticed he is too, he doesn't do much other than play video games all day. He does work out, but other than that, all he does is play. When I ask him for help, he always says later, or he won't do it at all. I hate living with him, but I can't move out because I don't have the money yet. Sometimes I wish he could just do things around the house automatically, ma y times I end up cleaning without asking him for help because I know he'll either think I'm being demanding, which I'm not, he's just lazy.

Question: How do I get my dads job back for him?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:57 PM PDT

I asked this question a while ago but nobody really answered so, my dad was clean from alchohal for 3 years because of probation, he still could have drank just not while driving but he didn't drink at all until he got off probation 3 weeks ago. he went down to the beach this weekend and just wanted to have some fun but took it too far and drank while driving. He was aware of his mistakes and regrets them a lot but he's job demoted him and now he's making SO MUCH less money then he used to. He has 7 people to take care of with his money and were moving in 1 month and he isn't making enough money to stay in this area and take care of his whole Family. We have to stay in this area though because he has a job here and what he works now is better then starting over. He has made his work thousands and thousands of dollars because he is such a good Employee and he comes to work when he's sick, tired, exhausted, and even on his days off. I just wish his work would reconsider. He loves his work and it's his pride in life. He also has a huge family to take care but it's like they didn't even consider that. He's off work for a week while they're still decided what they're going to do. Is there any way I could ralk to his work and convince them ?If I would've said no to going out to eat, he wouldn't have got in that car and i know it. I was just hungry it's all my fault honestly he was drunk and people don't think straight when they're drunk and I know this.

Question: My parents and I are in conflict all the time?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:54 PM PDT

I am not blaming it on them or on myself, nor do I care to point fingers. Rather I want to find a way to calm this situation down. Every single day when my and my parents interact, at least once, something unhappy breaks out and my parents blame it on me. When I try to talk to them nicely and try to work something out with them, they don't listen and just tell me that my only job is to obey. After that, they just walk away and say that if I don't listen it's my loss in the future. I partially agree but I feel like there is also a misunderstanding between me and parents. They really don't have any respect or trust in me, even though I can't think of anything I did wrong. Any solutions? I have tried talking to them to try to understand each other better but nothing seems to help. Also, I don't see anyway these conflicts can be avoided either because they occur randomly.

Question: What is wrong with me?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:51 PM PDT

in a few short months I will be living in my pick up truck. I cant find work, unemployed for over one year. I have an Associates degree now but a lot of difference that makes. My nephew is getting married and it seems like that no one remembers my address to send me an invitation but yet my parents get one. now I feel like there is something wrong with me

Question: My mom had an outburst!! Help!?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:40 PM PDT

She started full on screaming at me because I'm reading Thirteen Reasons Why for my English class. I'm not the only one reading it. I'm 15 going to be 16. When will she start letting me make my own choices?? Literally EVERYONES reading the book and has seen the show. Now I can't even watch the show....

Question: Is wine really that bad for you?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:40 PM PDT

Ok so I live with my 2 strong faith Christian parents, however my other family members such as my grandparents (their parents) and aunts/uncles (their brother/sister) drink wine. I mean I understand where there coming from but couldn't they just give it a try but in moderation?

Question: How do I fix this part of me?

Posted: 28 Apr 2017 08:39 PM PDT

I am really spoiled, but I am grateful. I don't throw a massive tantrum when I don't get what I want. However, I yell a lot. For example, I have prom on Sunday, and I want to get my full face makeup done which is 50 dollars. I asked my mom if I should just go there with just my foundation and let them do the rest of my face. My mom was like "why would we do your full face done? We are only doing your eyes". I got so angry and yelled at her because she told me I would get my full face done and I was already stressed out. I don't know why I didn't let it go. My mom said I could get my full face done after our fight but I offered to pay for since I had enough money to pay for it. I still feel guilty because I always do selfish things like this, and I can't stop when I do it
