Question: My great-uncle was prejudice. He changed from a bigot to a decent person in his later years. Does this happen alot in people?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 02:01 PM PDT

He also used to tell his kids how stupid they were and when they became adults he softened. He still is not a warm and fuzzy old man, but is far better then the bigot my Mom knew as a kid when she'd see him.

Question: How to stop stressing and feeling home sick and guilty?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 01:33 PM PDT

This summer I went to my dads here in Columbia, SC. I never thought I would live here until he asked me if I wanted to and I thought about it and said yes but I have felt very guilty because I left my mom, she s told me she s fine living with my dad so it s just me and I can t stop feeling guilty, I have felt so homesick I ve cried and it s kept me up during the night. My dad got offered a job in Kentucky and we re going there next weekend to look at the area and so he can do the interview and if he gets the job he says we will move there, I ve already enrolled into school here it s my senior year he says senior year doesn t matter, but it does to me especially since I have to enroll for college or choose the Navy, it s just a stressful situation because the school in KY I would go to starts in about 2 weeks and the recruiter that called my dad about the job has offered to pay for us to live in a hotel if he gets the job for 30 days and I don t know how to drive so I m going to have to take the school bus and they re going to see I live in a hotel and it s embarassing, and I just don t want to move back home because me and my step dad don t get along . I wish my dad would stay here for my senior year I love SC, anytime we try to talk about it he gets mad, we re just both stressed out. I want to know how to get over being homesick and feeling guilty about it and how to stop being stressed about moving when I don t even know if it s going to happen

Question: Would you put a lock on your door if your parents were going through your things ? Even though you ve asked them to stop ?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 12:47 PM PDT

I m 24 years old. I live with my parents due to financial reasons and can t afford a place on my own. My mom has been going into my room when I m not there and going through my things. She and my dad also feed my dog table food, which I ve asked them repeatedly to stop and they won t. He s become over weight and that has never been an issue with him before I moved back in with the parents. I did have my own place for a bit but some unexpected things happened. I told my mom I was putting a lock on my door since she couldn t stay out and that caused a big fight between us.

Question: Am I allowed to move out or would my parents be able to bring me back home ?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 12:35 PM PDT

Hi, I'm at 17 year old female in Colorado, the main reason of me wanting to move out is because my dad is insanely controlling, I know every teen says that, but he makes me go to stores for him, cook, clean, etc. My mom doesn't have the money and time for me since she is raising a young child on her own. (My parents are divorced) I would move out with my boyfriend who I've been with for over a year and two friends of mine who I have know for many years. They all have full time jobs and I have 2 jobs, I graduated high school this year and I start college in August, the home I'm wanting to move into is 5 miles from my college so that's an easy drive, where my dad's house is 22 miles away. My dad says I'm not allowed to move out because I'm not 18, but I feel like it may be the best for me. Thank you!

Question: Should I stop helping my ex wife and ex mother in law?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 10:20 AM PDT

Even though I am divorced from my wife, we are on friendly terms. I am also friends with her mother who lives alone. Our marriage did not work out but the friendship remained with both my ex wife and her mother. He mother has called me several times to help her with problems with her house or her car and I have always went to help her when she called me. However I never told my ex wife about this as I did not want to cause her any problems with her mother. My ex wife has also called asking for help several times and I always help her when she asked. For example, her computer stopped working and she wanted help getting her email. I fixed her computer. She could not get her car started one time and I took her to work, fixed her car and brought her home from work. Recently she asked for help with her filling out the forms for her income taxes. Some of her friends have asked me to stop helping her. They tell me she will never be able to learn to live on her on and get on with her life if I keep helping her. I would find it very hard to turn down anyone that asked for my help when I know I can help them. However I want the very best future for her and I don't want to cause her any future problems. Please give me some advice on what I should do in the future if she asks for help.

Question: I want to live only with my mom, but my dad has fake evidence against my mom?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 09:46 AM PDT

My whole life I've lived with my parents 50-50. I can't stand another day with my dad. He thinks I am crazy and unstable. I'm not, if he just left me alone. I am just a normal teenager, and he can't understand that. He keeps trying to fix me when I am not broken, and I hate him for it because it made me question everything. He says my mother is manipulating me, but I genuinely have no recollection of her doing anything to me ever. He keeps planting these ideas in my head and he's insane to me. its hard to post the whole thing here so i made a new question. https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20170723172856AAO5khm

Question: Why do I cry so often at little things? 18 years old? How to be stronger?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 09:32 AM PDT

I am18 years old and cry so often about little things. I'll cry when my parents yell at me and we get into fights. I'll cry when I have trouble with driving. I'll cry when I get overwhelmed. I don't know why I cry so often. It's not good because I am 18 years old (an adult) I've always been really sensitive but I think it may be something more. I'm really concerned about me

Question: True or False., Your family is wealthy and you are a spoiled brat?

Question: Is it ok to give my little bro a bath because he is injured? He thinks he has become perverted by taking a bath from me and cries. Plz help!?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 09:11 AM PDT

Ok a couple weeks ago my lil bro who is 9 suffered from dislocation in his right wrist and cracks or you can say fractures in his left forearm. This left him unable to do most of his work like brushing his teeth bathing putting his clothes on and even eating due to the casts. He tried to forcefully do things on his own against d wishes of my mother and ended up making his injuries more painful n slightly worse than before. And now my mother went abroad for work purposes and in her defence my dad passed away nearly 6 years ago and my mother has been working day and night to provide for my brother. My other brother who is 29 is in another state for a conference and regretfully told me that he won't be able to help me for at least the week. For a week I have been tending to my brothers every need like bathing, brushing n feeding him. I even make him sleep in my room at my house because sometimes (when he sleeps in d other room) he rolls on his arms and screams in pain, so I have to be there to make sure he recovers properly without any trouble. But d main problem is whenever I start giving him a bath he becomes teary eyed and blushes profusely n says what I wrote in the question above( WTF?!?!). But he's not like that at all. In fact he's a very courteous person and respects each and every lady he sees. How should I tell him that since he is injured so it's OK to take a bath from me? I m 28 n a girl btw n FYI he's my world so I have no problem whatsoever in taking care of him.

Question: How come I'm nice to my friends,when it comes to my mom I get an attitude. I don't mean to and don't realize, I just get mad at her easily?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 09:03 AM PDT

Why do I give my mom an attitude?

Question: Why do i get away with this?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 08:22 AM PDT

I'm a male, 18, who is reserved when it comes to girls. I'm nervous around them all the time. Growing up I've been teased at by relatives and people in school. Often I would just think about girls I like when stressed over homework or home life. Whenever a Victoria's Secret magazine came into the mail, I'd get nervous about being caught glancing at it for a second. Never am I allowed to have posters on my wall in my room. One day I snapped and began to loosen up and not care. I started flipping through the pages of the vs mag and then leaving it elsewhere in the house. Kinda like I'm saying that I notice these girls. They in malls at the vs store and on tv being seen by everyone. I use the main pc a lot but it belongs to my mom. I don't know why I got comfortable putting vs lingerie girls on the screen but I do. After awhile of vs girls, i moved onto this girl. She is a playboy model. Think her pictures are considerate? HONSET answers only please. http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_01.jpg http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_02.jpg http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_03.jpg http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_05.jpg Update: now the last 2 pictures are a little more sexier but she doesn't show anything.... http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_13.jpg http://redbust.com/wp-content/uploads/anastasia_christen2/anastasia_christen_14.jpg

Question: Mom works and I miss her?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 07:30 AM PDT

so all my life my mother and I have been so close. She s been like a best friend. She s alwyas been a stay at home mom and I would go everywhere with her. My dad has always worked which is nothing new so it doesn t effect me too much. My mom just started working two months ago even when she said and I quote "This summer will be our summer and I won t work. I ll start when you go back to school!" I was so happy because I love spending summer days with my mom. But then she decided to work anyways... I was pretty heartbroken. But I didn t show it. I told her I was sad but she said "Everyone will get used to it" Well there has been some major issues at her work and she has brought her frustration home every day. She s never happy and always yells at me. We don t do the things we used to because she s always exhausted. We used to go swimming together and go to the farmers market but now we hardly ever do. I spend most of my summer days sitting all alone trying to take care of my dog. I sit alone for hours. Most of my friends are busy until evening so I have no one to talk to. What are some things I can do to help? I m just so upset. I m tired of spending my summer lonely and sad.

Question: What is being planned for Sunday dinner?

Question: Should I be the one doing most of the work when my mom is gone?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 07:05 AM PDT

My mom is a decent mother with my sister, who is currently a few months past a year. She does a lot for her like bathing, changing, etc like a normal mother. I'm 17 and my dad absolutely seems to be allergic to any labor regarding my sister (and everything else too) and no matter what, I am the one to do everything for my sister when my mom is at work. I am always told to change her, when my mom tells my dad that my sister needs to be bathed, I'm the one he forces to do it. I am absolutely sick of being the parent. My 16 year old brother doesn't do anything for my sister so when my mom is out, I'm the parent while my dad is sitting on the couch watching tv. Is this normal? Why am I the one stuck with all the work? Is he going too far like I think he is?

Question: My sister is a bully once a month. She becomes the devil for a few days. Is this her period or Bipolar?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 06:46 AM PDT

If it is Bipolar I want to show compassion as I know people who have that cannot help it and are suffering. If it is her period I want to slap her.

Question: My Mom is a racist person but she does not go as far as hating minorities. How do I avoid others I know realizing this bad trait she has?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 06:40 AM PDT

Like when I was a kid she made lots of derogatory comments during the OJ Simpson trial about blacks. She is a racist but not to the point of hating minorities as people. She improved some since her sister married a black man who she likes but she is still racist. Her extended family was very racist when she was a kid (most died before I was born) so she learned racism from them.

Question: Teen boys are so rude nowadays?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 06:37 AM PDT

Especially my brother and other of his friends. When they were teens, they would never spend time with their parents. All they would do is sit in the house. Also my brother yells at my parents for no reason. My brother calls my mom slow when she can't find anything. Lots of his friends seem to critcize.

Question: My parents went on vacation without me? What do I do?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 05:34 AM PDT

I told my parents back in the beginning of June that I'll have varsity cross country practice starting August 15th (WHICH I CANNOT MISS) and to not plan anything on or after that date. But what do both of my parents do? They plan our vacation from August 14th to August 20th. I'm pissed. We rarely go anywhere nice and this is the one time we don't have to stay with relatives and we can have our own place. My parents had a very long time to plan this but they chose to plan it right when they knew I couldn't go. They told me I have to stay home alone for 6 days. I'm only 14 and haven't stayed home alone one night and definitely not 6. What do I do?

Question: My mother and father always takes my brothers side no matter what?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 05:22 AM PDT

Everytime me and my brother disagree on something even though I have a valid point my parents always take his side and have a go at me they then both gang up on me and call me a spoiled brat and other things even though I didn't do anything other than say my opinion which they know is the truth as they often have seen my brother do what ever we are disagreeing about. They have always don't this my whole life and then use things they have given me against me trying to make me feel guilty I always feel left out and I hate being blamed for everything. I'm 16 and my brothers 18 what can I do

Question: Why is my cousin so messed up?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 04:34 AM PDT

So, I've got this cousin. He is 21. I remember this going on since he was 13. When he was 13 he had the biggest crush on this 8 year old female. She is now 17 so it's not as weird now, but he doesn't like her anymore he stopped when she was 13(he told me, I didn't ask). On social media(instagram) he is constantly following people. They are all 11 and under(their pages say their age). I don't spy on my cousin no, but since I have him on social media I see who he follows and what he comments. He is commented on this 11 year old's pages saying "you're so cute (:." And a few years ago when he was 17 he "dated" a 12 year old. My cousin has aspergers and I do not know if that makes him weird like this. Or if something is truly wrong with him? Should i bring it up and ask why he is this way?

Question: Why did my father have to tell me that my grandmother died? I never grew a great relationship with her and I could care less if she passed?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 04:23 AM PDT

But why did my father tell me and now, I'm feeling sad, not because of her death, but the fact that he told me that people die when they get old and I won't be able to talk to them if I don't do anything about it. That's why I'm feeling sad.

Question: I hit my younger brother and it is always my fault.?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 03:17 AM PDT

So my brother is 13 and im 15 and he pisses me off so much and most of the time i hit him. He either starts with a tiny hit because he would be afraid and i would go all out on him and most of the time i m right but my parents blame me. Today i was playing video games and he was biting on a pillow and for crying out loud he is 13, i punched him for that on the arm and he got mad and kicked me on the back, i kicked him back on the arm and it really hurt him and he started crying (we both took kickboxing for 2 years so our kicks hurt i guess) while he cried my mom heard and came down and put ALL the blame on me and called my dad at work and he put the blame on me and while we were being lectured by our mother he keeps on saying dumb stuff so i stood up to hit him (yes i know im dumb) and held myself but instead punched something else and broke it and my mom FREAKED OUT and started yelling like she never did before WHAT DO I DO WITH MY BROTHER SOMEHOW ITS ALWAYS MY FAULT?

Question: I feel like my parents does not like me.?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 02:50 AM PDT

Im just gonna have summarize it, so when i was 1 year old after my brother was born my mom gave me away because she cant handle taking care of two kids. At 5 she took me back. Inmy childhood my brother is the top priority. Everything wrong hed done, is my fault. My mom is always scolding me and beating me. Once she even kneeled on my head on the ground just because i wet the bed. I was always at the top of my class to make my mom proud ofme, my brother is always skipping classes but she still hugs him when he got home. Me? She made me do the dishes. When arguing she asked my brother to explain why he did this or that. me? She even slaps me infront of my classmates after skipping one class jus because i am helping one teacher cleaning her room. My parents let me live with my ill grandmother alone saying shell pay my tuition. I hurt my back and caught a cold. Ive went home just for my mother scolding me and telling me its better for me to be not there. Got an inheritance from my grandma saying it should be on my tuition fees or if i wanted to sepereate from my parents. Parents took all of it, giving me a tuition fee for 2 year course after begging. now making me sell my car that my granda gave for my brothers tuition fees but he dropped out of hs. Im in public school and gotten in to a university later because of scholarships. my brother is in private school. i dont want to think that they actually dont love me but eveyone was asking me why my parents treat me indifferently

Question: I really want a different family. ��?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 01:56 AM PDT

Basically I'm just gonna write how I feel. I don't have anyone to listen to my problems really so I just need to say them on here. :( I just had a big fight with my parents that I didn't even start. My mom just started yelling at me for no reason, and we were perfectly fine before she yelled at me. My dad just totally backed her up and he saw everything go down too. He just told me I was being disrespectful even though my anger was triggered by her. I'm great full for everything they do even if I don't show it. I truly am. But I'm sick of always being in fights with them. I got into and acting company recently and it makes me really happy. Everyone is so nice and I like it better than home. And it's kinda hard to escape my parents now because they are helping out with the play I'm doing. I feel like I should completely stop talking to my parents and just agree with anything. If I say my opinion or anything they get mad. I almost feel like just dying or running away. Being dead would be better than this, the only reasons I'm still here is because I don't wanna go to hell, and I wanna have a future acting career. Ya know, just stuff I really care about. Other than that I would just end it ASAP. It sucks. I'm really blessed with everything. I have a roof over my head, food to eat, and this acting company I really love. But I'm just sick of fighting, and my parents being mad all the time. I just wanna be acting all the time because I get to be someone else and escape my reality.

Question: Rude cousin?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 01:42 AM PDT

Me and my cousin was hanging out and she asked if I could help her figure out a website that she wanted to join. So I helped her out and showed her how everything worked. Later that day instead of thanking me she blocked me on there. I didn't do anything to her. One minute she was happy the next mad.Then she started saying no body likes you, because you act like a 2 year old. Even though I didn't even say a word to her before that. I just kinda ignored her. What gets on my nerves is she does this kinda of thing alot. I don't care if anyone answers.I just wanted to get the steam off

Question: Please, help me now! My dog died.?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 12:41 AM PDT

I don t know where to start. I m trying to type and wipe the tears from my eyes at the same time. My family just told me right before bed. They asked me if I wanted to talk but I said no. I acted strong but now that everyone s asleep I m crying like crazy. I don t want to talk with them just yet. I need a stranger to tell me everything will be all right. I feel so guilty because we are currently on a family trip and left him alone. My grandpa was taking care of him but I m afraid he died because of the heat due to summer or depression from us leaving. I can t stand thinking it s my fault. I told my parents I wanted him to stay in the house like usual but my mom didnt want him to dirty the house. Im so upset. I m not sure what I m looking for. Comfort I guess. Sorry for the long message.

Question: As you grow older, do your siblings become like strangers to you?

Posted: 23 Jul 2017 12:15 AM PDT

We don't talk much like we use to. There is nothing new or much going on. Plus we argue a lot. So I think it's better not to talk at all.

Question: Do I have a right to be mad about my mother rumbling through my stuff or am I overreacting?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 11:41 PM PDT

I just turned 18. I went shopping for my birthday. My mom annoyed me by trying to tell me when to come home (before it's even 12). She asks me what I bought. I ignore her. So, I come in from work and I see my purse I bought sitting where I thought I didn't leave it. I look at it for a few mins. But I'm tired and don't think anything of it. But now as I go up to get some water, I realize my mom took my water bottles out of my room which confirms my suspicions that she 1. Went in my room and 2. Rumbled through my stuff for no purpose but to be noisy after I had no inclination to share anything with her at all. I am very mad and I feel she overstepped her boundaries. I move in a month to college but even that seems unbearable. Even though I have a job to come back to, I'm thinking of staying on campus for ALL of my breaks unless I can stay with my sisters or cousin. It's just the fact that she feels entitled to every little thing. I don't appreciate it. At this point, the only reason we're not arguing right now is because it's 2:30 in the morning. Like what if I bought things I didn't feel comfortable sharing with her? Maybe like some intimates or other things. Adults dont go through other adult's things. She literally has this point of view except when it comes to me. When my sister stayed here she never went through her stuff. I just feel like I'm still getting treated like a child and I DON'T want to continue the relationship until she treats me like a YA.

Question: What do you do when your 35 year old brother is abusive to your almost 50 year old mother (details below)?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 11:05 PM PDT

My brother has struggled with drugs and alcohol in the past and has gone right back to it but much worse then he ever has. He has gone to hitting relatives that he lives with more so our Mother. She told me she was sitting on the toilet about a week ago and he ran in on her and demanded she give him drugs which she did not have nor does she do and he punched in the jaw knocking out several of her back teeth, punched her and kicked her in the head. Jail does not do him any good as he always gets back out and worse than before. He needs to be put in some type of mental rehab. Is there a website or hotline that can have him put in a mental institution for a long time opposed to the 3 days they always seem keep him for?

Question: Dad cheating on mom.. please help?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 11:05 PM PDT

I'm 13 and I'm so sick of seeing my mom cry everyday and how my dad is cheating on her even though she forgives him a bunch of times just so he can do it again... my mom cares about me and my younger and older brother and doesn't want to divorce because she doesn't want anything bad to happen to us. I want to help and I feel horrible.. my dad cares about us all but apparently he can't stop because he got to attached. He is ruining our family and he knows it but he can't stop. He is old and the mistress is way younger. His family is telling him to stop but he doesn't. I still love my dad but if he hurts my mom again I don't care if they divorce I'm just worried for my younger brother. I don't know if I should talk to my dad about this because he doesn't know that I know.

Question: Will the pain of family related child abuse ever go away (read below)?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 10:42 PM PDT

For example as a kid I used to have to go rummage through trash cans for food. My parents would beat me if I didn't find any. One day I spoke to loud so my mother put my hands on the stove as a punishment. Another time for not getting enough stuff out of trash cans for my parents my punishment was I was held underwater until I thought I was going to drown. I also would get beaten with a cowboy belt if my parents weren't pleased with me. I had to stay in my room for days without food when my parents would have sex parties (they were swingers). I never went to school and somehow it was not discovered for years. Finally my brother ran away to a police officer who was in front of the house and the cop saw his bruises and entered the house. I was 13 at that point. So now I am 41 and a hermit. I trust no one and don't want to be near anyone. I live off of Food Stamps and subsidized housing. Will this pain ever go away? As a kid I thought it was normal so never told anyone, I see now it was child abuse. My parents were sentenced to 50+ years in jail and showed no remorse. I never plan to speak to them again and my brother will not speak to me. I think he blocked the abuse pain that way. I had a sister but she died of a drug overdose at 29.

Question: Is this kid evil?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 10:20 PM PDT

Marshall is 15 years old. He recently started getting horny and sometimes gets boners around his five year old sister. One night they slept in the same bed together and Marshall got hard again. He pressed himself against her body and started hyperventilating in her ear. She screamed and went to sleep in another room. The next day Marshall got hard again, he grabbed his sister and squeezed her tightly against his body. She told him to let go but he squeezed tighter and tightened his grip around her. marshall got extremely aroused by this and pressed her body against his ****. He let her go when he heard their mother calling for dinner. The little sister starts to feel rage and anger towards Marshall and starts to avoid him. Marshall says sorry and but attempts to grab her again but then their mother stops and asks Marshall why he's acting like that.

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 10:19 PM PDT

My girlfriend and I live with my mother , we buy the food we make the food and we often likes you prepare our lunches for the week. Today we came home and discovered that several of our sandwiches had already been eaten by my mother and that was the lunch for the week. When I confronted my mother she appeared as if she had done nothing wrong and said "its food in the fridge maybe you should label it". Before we had not had this issue, she had her food that we did not touch and we had our food that she did not touch. This is the 4th time after counseling that she has done the same thing with no regrets, She said she would ask us before but she has yet to request any kind of courtesy permission. are we over reacting or is there a problem?

Question: Feeling depressed. What's wrong with me?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 10:07 PM PDT

Hi everyone. I've been feeling depressed for a while now. It's embarrassing to say but after most times I clean or wash something my mom calls to my attention that I didn't do it properly. I'm trying to learn from my mistakes but it's almost everything I clean she finds at least 1 thing not done properly. Like one small spot I missed. I just feel pathetic and paranoid at home and work when I have to clean. Wondering even if I think I did well I probably did not.

Question: Emancipation help?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 09:33 PM PDT

I don t even know where to start without sound psychotic. Well my parents are psychotic, specifically my mom. So to talk about me, I have a 3.5 gpa, I work 25 hours a week at a pet store. I m a good kid, I don t do drugs lol anything like that. My parents and I just really butt heads. Yes I know this is common but i m constantly put down and abused. I can t take it anymore, after getting in a small arugement they took all of my money out of my checkings and savings account (that i ve earned) and have hid my car keys and my laptop from me yeah I don t know how I still have my phone. Moral of this story is yeah I have dick parents and I want out. I m to the point where dropping out of school has become a viable option just because I can get away from them sooner. I turn 18 in may and I just don t know if the process of emancipation is worth it or not. I would just be living in some shitty apartment with random *** roommates. I seriously cannot do this anymore, it is breaking me as a person. I have to walk two hours to work everyday just for a 6 hour shift. I have no money for food or anything. I have no friends that live alone or would be willing to let me live with them. My boyfriend is in the Navy and unless we are married we cannot live together. They are still allowing me to live here but not for long. I have no where to go. I understand if I come off as annoying or a brat but I just need help and I m extremely lost and needy for advice.

Question: I'm going on vacation with a friend but I don't think we have the money for it, should I just not go?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 09:19 PM PDT

So, I'm going to NY with a friend, I'll only need about $200. I ask my mom for the money and at first she said she doesn't think she has the money. Then, she says she'll work something out. She seems a bit stressed about it but when I ask, she says she's not. Should I just tell her I'd rather stay home so that she doesn't stress about anymore? I honestly have no clue what to do. I feel like I'll just feel guilty about taking the money instead of actually enjoying myself.

Question: Do you have relatives who are unbearable to be around?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 09:17 PM PDT

My grandma, whose last name is Rivera, and thinks that that's a last name, WRONG, so she must be white, WRONG. Yet thinks my father's family isn't white. She even said I'd come out dark. What a sangana. IDIOTS! Guzmans aren't white to her, even though those are Visigoths names. Rivera isn't white, that's fact And I don't think I'm better than her, but it does get unbearable hearing idiocy left and right. Wonder if she gets the origin of "bro" wrong too

Question: Being yelled/accused by dad for no reason?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 08:54 PM PDT

today, there was a fight between my parents. they both verbally say that they are fed up of another and want to leave each other. so, my mom had shut down the ac because nobody uses it at night time. however, my dad came out yelling, while me and my siblings were in our rooms doing our summer school work, that he'll lash out on either of us if we even try to touch the AC. if we haven't touched the AC, then why is he giving such threats? couldn't he explain it in the polite way to not touch the AC? if he wants the AC on, he could say it in a respectful manner without accusing us with a baseless allegation. what am i supposed to do? i didn't even do anything yet he lashed out that he'll see to it if anyone tries to shut off the AC but all of us were already sleeping or finishing up our summer school work?

First of all, she s five years old. She hit me with a medal like it was a whip and she gave me multiple welts on my body yesterday. She also hit me with a bead necklace and made a red mark on my back. She gives me panic attacks everytime that I m around her. She s spending the night right now and gave me a bad panic attack. I scratched her and myself and smacked her arm and I feel so bad now.

Question: Are my parents alcoholics?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 08:34 PM PDT

My parents drink almost every day, but they do not get drunk. I've had conversations about their drinking and how it bothers me they always say the will quit but he next day my mom is out buying wine. My aunt and grandmother have also had conversations with them but it seems like they need to drink. Would they still be considered alcoholics although they are not getting drunk daily?

Question: Has anyone ever had a family member they couldn't stand???

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 07:21 PM PDT

I can not stand my aunt... first of all I can no trust her nobody in my family can. She Blame s me for stealing her clothes and I have never stole from her or anyone. And she lives with my grandma. I used to stay with my gma every weekend, but now I'm starting to hate going out there. Her own kids don't like her, nor trust her. She cheated on her husband of 16 years. And now she has turned into a hoe. She has 4 boyfriends right now. She never has anything to do with her kids and when she comes around everybody she is hateful. None of us can stand talking to her. And she leaves her junk laying around. I can't stand her coming to my house, yet she keeps coming over.

Question: How can I help out my family financially?

Posted: 22 Jul 2017 07:20 PM PDT

I'm 23 male and I live at home with my parents. My mom is an alcoholic (drinks hard liquor every night) and complains and fights that we (my sister, dad and I) do not help her out (financially) with anything. I do give them money sporadically 2,500 for my dad to repair his car, and paying for things, etc. I decided to help her with the rent and give her some money $500. She was sober and she said she didnt need it. She told me to save it instead. I'm sick and tired of this. I just try to work go to school and come home and sleep. When I think about her drinking it drives me insane. So what do I do? I cant move out because they rely on me to be there and they said I am selfish if I move out and leave them alone to pay the bills but I mean come on? You dont need my help. Please dont suggest Alanon. She doesnt think she has a problem.
