Question: Do I confront/talk to my father about the emotional abuse he put onto me as a child?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 01:42 PM PDT

I grew up with a mother on drugs who loved us but it caught up with her and she was put in prison. I then had to live with my younger brother with our father who was not ready to have 2 kids living with him. The stress of everything and the past he had had he took it out on us. Some occasions : I overslept for school he had to come home from work and ripped up my drawings , telling me i didnt deserve to go on the middleschool washington fieldtrip (i live in indiana it was a big deal) that my science teacher paid for me to go on Threw away all my art supplies when I forgot to throw away a sanitary pad from my underwear. Called him dumb funnily as a joke and his entire mood shifted, aggressively telling I was rude and ungrateful Took a LOT out on my brother, yelled and got angry a lot We were sheltered kids who was raised with no rules really as our mother had "other problems" than us sleeping in a little late. We all live together now (his mental state has been deteriorating since the death of his brother, we believe him to be bipolar) and things are pretty happy and alright. But that doesnt change that i am, ****** up by the things that happen. I still don't know if im "worthy" of things like gifts or sometimes even food just like i wasnt "worthy" of going on the fieldtrip. I just don't know if i should confront or talk to him about these things. He can still be very mean but that may be the mental illness. I just don't know..

Question: I haven't gotten Christmas presents for everyone in the family yet. Will they be mad?

Question: What activities can I do with my dad? How can I connect with him?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 01:04 PM PDT

I dont feel like going into too much detail but my dad is dying of cancer. He has been through all the treatments and none have worked, they ve only bought time. I just graduated high school and now I can spend more time with him because he retired. Trying to do things with him is hard because his tumor is so big he can only stand for about 10 minutes, plus his muscle is all gone from not eating and treatments . Generally he is a negative person, my mom and I have been trying to get him involved in anything hoping it will lift his spirit. For example my mom told him "why dont you go sit outside with us on the porch and get some sun, its nice out" he replyed with "why dont you let me know how it is" and he walked off. Me and my dad have never been close but i want to get closer, at least comfort him as he only has a few months left. Any advice? Im a guy by the way and he is very stubborn as you can tell.

Question: How do I formally disown my sister?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 12:51 PM PDT

My sister is a bad human all around with absolutely no redeeming qualities.

Question: How do I politely express to my parents that I feel bad they don't inform me when the extended family invites us over?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 12:48 PM PDT

I am obsessive-compulsive and I used to try to hard. Now I have that under control despite my repeated questions on here to strangers. My parents do not tell me when the aunts or uncles ask us over. Sometimes they go though usually not if it is my Mom's family as she is cold to her family now that her parents have died. I miss out as a result of this on time with family. I host something in August each year as I am an adult and miss out otherwise. How do I get my parents to see this hurts me. Also how do I confirm they are doing this on purpose rather then just forgetting to tell me? Please advise. And yes I am in therapy ASKING AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR THE EARLIER ANSWERS AS WELL

Question: My Mom does not like her daughter-in-law. Should I join her in disliking the daughter-in-law?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:45 AM PDT

Question: Should I tell my sister what she wants to know?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:44 AM PDT

I have a 14 year old sister Nancy that has been my best friend for my whole life. I really like her. I am a 19 year old guy. We are very close. I try to be very protective of her. She has developed into a beautiful girl. She recently ask me to tell her about boys and sex. I think it is VERY IMPORTANT that she know the facts especially about sex. I don't want her pregnant. I told her I would prefer she talk to our mom about this. She said it would be to embarrassing to talk to our mom and she wants me to educate her about these subjects. Should I tell our mom about here asking about this and ask her to talk to Nancy or should I tell Nancy the facts about her body and how to prevent pregnancy. Nancy trust me completely and feels she can talk to me about anything without embarrassment. Mom and teenage girls, PLEASE give me some advice her. I only what is best for Nancy.

Question: What could I do with my sister's strange behavior?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:37 AM PDT

She goes to "mediums" and supposedly talks with our deceased grandparents. She is well educated (over 12 years of college) because she has a PHD in something. She very normal or above average in every aspect. She's just weird about this talking with dead people thing.

Question: Dad is an alcoholic and Mom is a narcissist. What is the point of living?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:35 AM PDT

Question: Is he right or wrong?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:20 AM PDT

I have a fiance overseas and have become close to his family. His younger sister wants a new phone for her birthday. I wired $400 USD in his name so he could pick up the phone and surprise her. I told him which phone she wanted. Instead of getting it, he bought her a cheaper phone and then spent the rest on himself. I was very disappointed in him, found it selfish and a bit weird. He thinks it was his right because I'm his fiance and she shouldn't expect such a nice gift from me. They live in South America.

Question: What Christmas gifts should I pass out at the family reunion in two weeks?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:16 AM PDT

Question: I can't seem to feel happy?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:05 AM PDT

Well this a long list... All of my siblings have moved out of my parent's house. I am incredibly lonely all the time. My parent's fight daily and take it out on me. I just feel so trapped. I'm only 14, I can't go anywhere. My siblings are constantly working, one a nurse, one a lineman. So they work all day and then sleep the rest of the time. When they're off I don't like to bother them because they usually just spend time with their own families. I don't have many friends, my parents don't really like to take me to people's houses or anything. School is torture, I'm the lame one people just love to make feel awful. I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel incredibly lonely, and have never felt worse in my entire life. I start high school in a few months. That will be a nightmare. More torture. I don't know what to do anymore. I am broken. I've dreamt my whole life of being a normal teen having fun and staying happy, like my sister. She is golden. Instead I've been hit with a broken family, losses of people I love, friends gone, and loneliness. All I want is to be happy again. That's all... Thanks in advance.

Question: My brother is coming to Christmas. Where do I get him a gift this weekend?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 11:00 AM PDT

Only 197 days until Christmas, are you ready?

Question: Is this legal?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 10:51 AM PDT

My friend has an open children and youth case. He isn t being neglected by his parents and sometimes put through abuse. They have an open case for truancy but my friend made a report about his parents and they kept the case open longer. His parents lied about their other child staying with them because they still get welfare money and food stamps for him, and the case worker now knows that. Therefore she is aware that they are committing welfare fraud, but won t report it. She also refuses to report that there is no food in the house, the house is in no condition to have people let alone children staying there, the childs hygiene, hunger, medical and orthodontist needs are not and have not been taken care of for years. When reported to her supervisor, she was only told to check the house for food, which still isn t there. She refused to report the electric being out at the house for almost a half a year and the parents refusing to pay it, and now that it is reported she is sticking him with his sister who has 2 bedrooms, but already five people staying at the house(which is also illegal, she can get kicked out), sois any of this legal at all??? She s a mandated reporter but refusing to report, should my friend request a new worker???

Question: I suspect my husband is mentally unstable, unpredictable, and extremely immature.?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 09:06 AM PDT

He was adopted, abandoned, and mis-treated during his adolescent years and has never really processed that and moved on from it. He lives an isolated life with no friends, family, etc and seems very guarded towards others excluding his 1-older brother. There have been instances where he's gotten so mad over something I've said to him that it resulted in him breaking personal items of mine and or damaging the place where we live (broken room door, hole in the wall, slamming the front door, etc) which could result in us being evicted. My landlord threatened us with an eviction because my husband ignored the rules on three different occasions of no smoking in the unit. There have been other instances where he would threaten not to pay his portion of our household's monthly expenses because out of anger. He threw his keys at me before and slapped a coffee mug out of my hand which resulted in coffee splattering all over the walls, ceiling, etc in front of my 4-month old who was crying out of fear from his yelling. He often forgets important things and makes excuses and or blames me for holding him accountable to it. There was an instance where he tried provoking me by urinating on the bathroom floor but later tried to say he did it because it was dark in the bathroom. That same evening he tried awakening my 4-month by hitting a spoon against this metal bowl close to him so he would cry and keep me up that *** I'm planning to leave systematically and in the next 3-4 months without saying a single word to him after I gather my finances. I will allow him to have some contact with our son but I can't stay around this nut case any longer

Question: How to deal with guilt of not being able to go to your nephews birthday party?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 09:03 AM PDT

I know this question sounds really silly, but my nephews 2nd birthday party is today and I can't make it. My nephew seriously means the world to me and I feel really bad for not being able to go.

Question: My rude daughter is out of control. Advice?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 08:49 AM PDT

My daughter is going into 10th grade in high school. I expect her to do 3 after school activities: theater, soccer, and writing the newspaper. I don't think I ask for much, but she gets upset every time I bring up that I expect her to do these things. Her excuse was that she wants to focus on her classes and her homework. Well why can't she focus on her classes AND do the 3 activities? It's pathetic. I ask her to something so simple and she can't even do that for me. Her attitude annoys me. When I was her age, I went to summer camps, did art club, and babysat my siblings. It's a shame that she can't do these things. Any advice?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:54 AM PDT

I used to do a ton of sports when I was little and finally settled on track. But now I don't like it and I think I want to do volleyball. Am I too old (if I wanted to get a scholarship)? I am 15 and Im turning 16

Question: Do you think it's ok to still live at home in your 30's?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:47 AM PDT

My parents think it's ok for me to still be living at home. But I just turned 30 years old and I've been telling my parents I want to move out. But they just keep telling me it's ok if I for me to stay with them. My mom didn't move away from home until she was 32 or 33 and pregnant with me. But I think my parents feel this way because I'm the only child.

Question: Advice on how I could make it up to my mom please?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:40 AM PDT

Hello viewers. I'd appreciate your help with this. My mom contently tells me about how messy my room and bathroom is. It's not filthy, it's just when she sees something where it doesn't belong or a little untidy she goes off on me.It's like she doesn't notice when the rooms are clean. I don't argue with her at all but I feel really disappointed in myself and pathetic. I've apologized to her and promised that I will keep them clean about three times now but she always gets me as soon as it gets dirty or I kept something out of place. Today she talked to me and I'm trying to make it the last time. I work full time and go to school so that's why I slack here and there. Although I'm not going to make that an excuse, sometimes I don't notice when I'm focused on working and studying. What ruins my spirit even more is how she says recently I've been doing a poor job with cleaning the bathroom. I guess because I rush with my limited time. Now I feel paranoid that I'm not performing well at home. I just feel like I failed her. I'm honestly going to try keeping my rooms clean from now on but will that be enough to make it up to her?

Question: Will my dad get angry if I don't stay at his parents' house?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:35 AM PDT

This summer I'm visiting my home country and I feel rather blunt saying this but I like my mum's family much more and everyone knows it. My dad's parents are awful and are always trying to find ways to cause unpeacefullness in the family. Unfortunately we're all going together so we have to go to their place first. Will it be okay for me to go to my maternal grandparents' house the next day without my dad getting offended?

Question: Is my dad abusive?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:32 AM PDT

So my dad is always yelling at me to do all these different things. He also flicks my ear sometimes jokingly and it's annoying. He yells at me to get in the shower at 9:00 but I'm 15 and want to enjoy myself more at night. Am I overthinking this? That's all that I can think of that he does.

Question: Is it normal for parents to have a lot of problems at 17 years of marriage? It started a few months ago.?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:19 AM PDT

My parents have been married for 17 years and lately my mother has been telling me how my dad has changed a lot, lately he gets extrememly angry over little things and he is always in a bad mood. He yells constantly at me and my siblings when he used to be extremely patient and I know people change and stress causes people to act out but this has been going on for quite a while and now my mother seems constantly frustrated by it. I just need to know if this is normal, my parents always said they would never split because they believe in love being a choice and making it work but now they are yelling and fighting on a daily basis. It just eels like hey stopped making it a choice. I just need to know if this happens after a long time together because I am worried about them. They both seem constantly annoyed and now they both have very short fuses.

Question: My son sends me these phrases and words over text. What do they mean?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 07:17 AM PDT

STFU KMN FML And once he sent a text that was wrongly sent to me, and he made that clear by calling me and telling me not to read it. it read; "She was giving me brains in the back of the truck and i bust my nut like twice, it was so lit bro" i assume he meant studying in his car? although i'm not sure what he meant by "bust my nut". I am not down with the "kids slang nowadays" and i would appreciate what these phrases and words mean, as i haven't got the slightest clue and my son seemed pretty adamant i did not read this particular text so please could you tell me what this means. Thanks.

Question: How do you moms deal with whiny toddlers?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 06:52 AM PDT

My toddler is almost 3 and she whines ALL DAY LONG! It drives me crazy! I've tried to talk to her nicely and also gotten mad at her and tried confronting but nothing seems to work! How do you moms deal with this?

Question: My family doesn't want my daughters father in her life. Its frustrating to me.?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 06:36 AM PDT

I think its important for a father to spend time with his child. He does not pay child support and gives me 100 dollars here in there sees his daughter once a month when he offers. But my family always is asking me what's he doing with my daughter when he has her and it bothers me. Every time I bring up the fact he's taking her. They get upset. I think its because he left her at his sisters house one time but I didn't think it was that bad. At least he leave her at a relative not some strangers house I said. Well they go it might have as well been a stranger s house. But they let my deranged and estranged brother see my daughter which I don't get. Maybe I should just tell my ex they don't like him but I'm worried he might try to take my daughter away he makes more than I do. Maybe I can avoid conflict if I do tell him though we can plan differently when he picks her up.

Question: Why do I have to wait to watch everybody eat if I eat fast and I'm done with dinner?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 06:08 AM PDT

I eat Dinnet fast! My wife and my kids are so slow when it comes to eating! They're always complaining why don't you stay with us? Why should I watch them eat if I'm done and I can watch TV. Maybe if they didn't talk so much they'd finish sooner. Anyways I hate slow people I wish they could eat faster like me

Question: All my in-laws call me the "in-law" from hell. Should I make my husband choose, me or his family?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 04:34 AM PDT

They resent me for trivial reasons like my cooking or my voice being loud. Also they never liked my father as he had a bad business relationship with my father-in-law. They take this out on me that my father is slick with money. Should I tell my husband it is me or his family and he picks? He is nice to both and I resent he is nice to them when they are mean to me. He also takes our two sons over to see them and I don't feel they should have the right to see our sons if they don't like me. My husband's argument is our sons need their grandparents but they have those in my family. So should I make my husband choose? I love him but hate his family.

Question: What advice would you give to your 25 year old self? My boyfriend of 5 year's Mom tried to fight me, what should I do?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 03:11 AM PDT

She let me move in and I didn't know she was an alcoholic and now she says I'm the devil, and I would never move in without her permission but I had no where else to go, I didn't know the havok drugs wrecked on America until I met her, but my boyfriend's Norwegian, and I'm 25, African American and I love ppl, but I'm appalled at my bf's mom because she abused him and his older brother and she blames it on the alcohol and says she should've gotten abortions. The question I have is my boyfriend (youngest son, 26) has never asked to even speak to my mom in Miami and I've went thru hell with his mom. Is he a good guy. btw he has hardcore ocd, so don't be toooooo harsh on him, its the repetitive kind of ocd. My parents SUPER SHELTERED me btw so I meant I never knew the havoc drugs weighed on America, because she's also been on meth, but says because she lived in the 60s she didn't know meth was bad. My boyfriend is the youngest of her sons 26

Question: My Brother won't show respect for my feelings on a particular issue, and I don't know what to do?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 03:06 AM PDT

My kid brother just recently came out as a homosexual, which was surprising to me, as he's had many girlfriends. My dad was a very conservative man, and took a dim view of homosexuality, as did my grandpa. My grandpa and my dad always taught us that homosexuality is, to quote them: "perverted." And so for my brother to practice this kind of lifestyle doesn't make any sense to me. (I say practice because I know that a lot of straight men willingly have homosexual sex in prison, and I'm excluding instances of rape when I say that obviously, but when they are released they generally stop. So that tells me it is a choice.) My brother knows how I feel about it; he knows the values we were raused with, but I have never openly criticized him, so as to show him respect. And it's really difficult because he knows how I feel, yet he and his boyfriend deliberately make out in front of me, therefore not showing any respect for my feelings, even though I try to extend that courtesy to him. I'm not saying this to offend or attack anyone or group. I'm saying this because I know the values we were raised with, and I hold to those values, but I'm also trying to show my brother respect - he's my brother and I'll always love him - yet he deliberately won't show me respect. So I don't know what to do? (I know this is a delicate matter, and I'm trying to be as respectful as I can be when talking about it, yet also trying to be honest about how I feel.)

Question: I am 17 and I got my girlfriend. Looking for some advice.?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 03:04 AM PDT

My girlfriend and I are both 17 and a few days she told me she was late for her period that she had taken a test and she is pregnant. I love her and I told her we would make it work. I quit school last yea and I work full time on a cattle ranch. I make 15 dollars an hour and I work 40 hours a week. Would this be enough to support my girlfriend and the baby or should my girlfriend quit school and get a job also? My parents kicked me out last year so I do not think they help me. Thanks for any advice

Question: Are these lyrics good?

Posted: 10 Jun 2017 02:20 AM PDT

I'm 14 and I wrote them in memory of my grandad. Slowly, I watched you Fade away, before my eyes Looking back it happened so fast But then it took a lifetime I thought you just wanted to go Be free from this pain But you hung on, and wouldn't let go You waited, for the perfect time When you and I were ready to say goodbye You let me know it would be alright Before you had to leave this life Before you had to leave us behind Before you ascended to the white light Don't stay, don't suffer for me I'll be ok, you don't have to worry There will never be a good time to go So don't wait, to free yourself from your suffering Don't worry, I'll always remember you From the first days To when I saw you in that hospital bed So don't wait, its ok, don't wait

Question: Husbands family hates me?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 11:34 PM PDT

We started dating at 16. We did what normal teens do, sex & sneaking out. He didn't sneak out often, but they blamed me for a lot of things that he did. It went so far that they even tried to get a restraining order on me based on lies on behalf of him after they put him in a mental hospital. Now, fast forward a bit. They still hate me. He stands up to his parents after they talk harshly about me a few months before 18 and drop him off on the side of the road. They come back to drop all of his stuff at his job (where he was heading). Kicks him out. Now his parents want back in his life saying they miss him. They've done a lot of manipulative and horrible things to their son that I won't really get into. Very controlling. But we're married now. They still barely know me. They want nothing to do with me, but wants to keep in contact with him. He doesn't want a relationship with them because of what they've done. Part of me wants to fix it, but they're not willing. Everyone says he should spend time with us separately. But we are all his family now. He wants them to accept me or not speak to him. He doesn't want to go out of his way to make sure his parents don't cross paths with me. He thinks we should be at least cordial. Should he see us separately? And how would that work when children are involved if so?

Question: Was I emotionally abused? There's not enough word space to say everything so I only said the worst things. Tell me!?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 10:17 PM PDT

Alright, I've tried to explain this multiple times but I've never had enough space. So, I'll explain quickly. Please tell me if I'm right or if I'm being a horrible person. 1. My dad. Lived with my dad since I was 11. I've always been afraid of him. I've had a few nightmares about him. If people ask me to hang out, he's always the first thing that comes to mind. He drank a lot when I was a kid and even drove drunk with us in the car. He'd belittle my emotions and if I got upset he said "Oh Boo-hoo!". I was depressed a while ago and I wanted to kill myself. I was talking to a counselor at school and I gave him the letter to sign so I could keep talking with her and he said "how much attention do you need?!". He threatened to drown my cat if she ever got pregnant, he yells when angry (even if not at me), and I'm always afraid that any little thing could make him angry. When he's upset, it's the end of the world. When I'm upset I'm over-reacting. I'm worried about him snapping and killing me. 2. My mother. I used to live with her when I was a kid. From 1-10 since my parents divorced. She always had new men in the house. She spent the child support money on herself and her boyfriends so they could go on vacation. She'd party on the weekends and gave us to our grandparents to take care of us. She always chose her boyfriends over us (no matter what they did.) She's emotionally unavailable and competes with us. She likes to be the best person in the room. She gets angry fast.

Question: What do you think of this and what should I do?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 09:09 PM PDT

my mom called my grandparents and they live in a different country now because they couldn't live with us when they came to live with us and they said because of me. They would make fun of me and leave me out and treat my sister better than me and they would take her to wherever they went. It was like they were embarrassed to be seen with me. They would always make fun of me. They would always complain and say that I don't make them happy and I haven't done anything to them. Then I got into a fight one time with my mom and she was hitting me and I faked to touch a knife but I didn't really grabbed it I just touched it and my grandparents ran and came over and they started screaming to call the police.Then my grandpa held me down like I was violent and I was screaming and saying that I couldn't breath and that I'm dying and they told me to die if I'm dying and my grandpa was spitting on me. The police came and I got arrested. This happened years ago. Ever since this happened And my grandparents left I don't like or want to be talked about on the phone to my grandparents about the good things I'm up to or doing and for them to think or see that I'm succeeding. Then my mom called my grandparents and said that I have some exams to take and I feel like I can't focus now when I try to study and it makes me feel like they are doing witchcraft because they didn't like me and would always say bad stuff about me and they would always make me look bad in front of everyone. I'm 17.

Question: How do you write into the Ellen show?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 08:13 PM PDT

I would like to write into the Ellen show to see if I could help my family. My mom just lost her job and is more worried then she's letting on, and my Dad has kidney failure and goes to the hospital every day for infusions (like chemo). I want to help my family as they've always done so much for me - however, I don't think we would be able to fly to california as my family is not big on traveling. Could Ellen possibly help me somehow over skype instead?

Question: My parents come into my room too often?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 07:19 PM PDT

When I'm sleeping, they scream through my door asking at 1 am, I wake up and scream back that I am, then they don't trust me and barge into my room checking if I'm sleeping nearly every 2 hours of the night, and I end up getting around 1-2 hours of sleep. Also, when I'm doing homework, or doing something important, they come in every 10 minutes and ruin my work flow. They don't trust me enough to leave me alone, and I can't redeem myself. Is there any way to prevent this? asking if I'm asleep***

Question: Fleas have infested my home and my parents do not care... what do I do?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 07:03 PM PDT

So recently we have gotten an infestation of fleas (from their dog) and my parents do not care... they keep on denying there are fleas when i clearly made the lamp and dawn+water+plate trap method and caught 3 and my mom said they are not fleas but fly's... they do not want to waste money on products anymore and they just no longer care. please what do I do? they do not trust exterminators because they "just want our money". I can't put any money in to this because I have to pay for my college fee for classes. I am super stressed out about this because I am literally considering moving out just because of their lack of care about the situation, even though I cannot because of my financial situation. Please help me

Question: Did I overreact?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 06:22 PM PDT

My dad said that I never close the cupboard doors in the kitchen. I informed him that in that particular instance, my hands were full, and he said, "Yeah, but you never!". As a result, I stormed out of the house.

Question: What relation is someone to me if she is my dad's first cousin's daughter? Third cousin maybe? My dad's second cousin?

So if she's my second cousin, she's also my dad's first cousin? Never mind the previous update. Figured it out.

Question: Sister in law mad at me for not attending my nephews 4th birthday party?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 05:55 PM PDT

I've been to my nephews last two birthday parties but this year she didn't invite me until less than a week before the party and I already had plans. I still got my nephew a gift and texted her to say sorry I couldn't make it but would like to get together and she never responded. Granted any relationship I have with my nephew is because I put the effort out and drive over 45 minutes to see him and initiated it. She has never once been to my place nor has my brother and neither even contacts me to try and make plans. What should I do?

Question: Is it bad that I don't want my brother in my kids life?

Posted: 09 Jun 2017 05:55 PM PDT

Growing up my older brother and I were always close. About a year ago I feel betrayed and used by him and still haven't been able to forgive him. I feel like him and his gf (at one point I was friends with her) used me. Now I don't trust my brother, I don't like being around him, and no longer wants him in my life. With that I'm expecting my first child this year and I don't want him in my child's life at all.

Question: I'm almost 23 years old, I live with my parents but my mom wants to move to another state and I don't want to go?
