Question: I just found out my grandmother's bio-father was a US Senator. How do I find out which senator?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 02:24 PM PDT

My grandmother died in 1998 when I was seven and I only met her once. She was not good to her daughters as kids and did not protect them when their father abused them. So my Mom had little contact with her. However, I met her son recently (my Mom's estranged brother) and learned that my grandmother was adopted and her bio-father was a US Senator who was unnamed. How can I find out who since it will make me related to someone famous?

Question: Help Please! I need some advice. from anyone please!?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 01:31 PM PDT

So, My mother about a year ago had a stroke, she has been recovering this past year quite fast, but one thing that I have noticed is that her personality has completely changed. Is that normal? I'll give you an example, My Mother never cared about wearing makeup, never cared about looking the best from everyone. and now thats all she cares about. Second, before the stroke my she and my dad, did not fight for everything. But now she has a problem for everything, even with me and my little sister. I have even had to talk with her seriously and it hurts me cause she is my mother and I don't want to disrespect her, but my little sister she is epileptic and it's one of the really bad ones that my sister gets, and my mom for no reason starts screaming at her. like, dude stop! We know you had a stroke but you are not the only one here with medical conditions. Like, it has gotten really bad, over these couple months. She does not want to drink her medications, and she does not want to go to the Hospital. and! even tho she is not suppose to drive, she is driving. This scares me, I don't want tot lose my mom. I love her so much. But she is slowly killing herself.Because she is not talking care of herself and she doesn't want help from anyone.

Question: Ready to fall out with my mum...?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 01:17 PM PDT

im 16, have been brought up well, help around the house, and try my best to please everyone, but its difficult to be with my mum. Examples: The other week in a shop, she asked me to pick something up from the bottom shelf, i did and accidently knocked the basket, resulting in something falling out, (easy mistake, im human) My mum called me a useless son of a ***** and made me stand outside the shop like a little boy. Another time, we were trying to find someone's house, it was in a rural area and my mum told me to find it. I did try but then she said "find it, or i thump you" -- she never did, just a threat in the few seconds after each incident, i feel stupid. any ideas please :)

Question: Parents arguments, help?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 01:09 PM PDT

so my parents arguments are becoming part of my daily routine, my mum has a go at my dad and they end the night in separate beds. In the morning, they kiss and make up and everything is rosy, until the next day... I think that after they argue, they should talk things through. maybe something that they both need to work on, although when my mum drives off at night, this isn't always possible. Any thoughts, this might be a difficult question to answer...

Question: Why do some people think that all children are being loved and have good parents?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:57 PM PDT

Some people assume that EVERY child is at least being loved and cared for by some adult. However, I've seen worse case situations where the CPS gets involved and... they find a child who has lice, other health issues, and they are so dirty that it takes a few long baths to get rid of it all. A lot of kids aren't in those situations, but still have crappy parents who let them play video games 24/7 and be their BFF instead of authority figure. So, why is it still an assumption that all kids have good parents for some folks?

Question: A family member died and I don't know what to react? She always ask for money from my family since I was growing up...?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:37 PM PDT

And never have I had any good relationship with her as she is absent of my family's life other than always asking for money. I heard from my older siblings that when I wasn't born yet and when they were so young back in the past, she was much of a miser. Just last week, I was so mad of her that I yelled at her for being too demanding for money and how she's so disrespectful to my family despite ignoring what I say and kept on demanding for more money. If we don't allow her one time to give her money, she would throw a fit like a child and will not leave the house until she receives one. And my father (her brother) does not want to let us call the police for this or something because he will only get hurt and had no choice but to tolerate her actions. Then just this morning my father received a text message from one of his kids saying that she already passed away. Her physique is that she is fat but not becoming obese and a decade ago, I heard she was diagnosed with a mental illness. She improved as time had gone by but she was still persistent of asking money to my family when she needed something. That was all of the communications we have from her the whole time she visits my family. I don't know what to react about her now. My family is not even too close with her and her family to the point that they're so estranged to us since the past.

Question: Been married for over 16yrs and we have 2 daughters (age 9 and 14). Recently over the past few months hubby has been VERY verbally violent..?

Question: I am starting to feel really embarrassed at how spoiled I am?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:18 PM PDT

So my parents have always been amazing to my sister and I and I appreciate it so much. I have worked for the past three summers and during the school year, but my mom always tells me to save my money and she can support me. My friends in college always talk about how their parents wont buy them food and they have to basically pay for everything themselves like groceries and dinner and all that stuff meanwhile my mom has always offered to pay for my groceries while I am away at college. I don't think I act like im spoiled, but im embarrassed because my parents do so much for me and I can't imagine having to do everything on my own. When I go on trips and such I always pay for my own stuff and coffee and gas and stuff I pay for even though my mom offers, but still I don't know. ugh

Question: If plans are made weeks in advance, are they unimportant?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:07 PM PDT

I had made plans two weeks in advance with my boyfriend, his mom and grandpa. They live in another town. My parents asked my just 2 days ago to watch the house while they're are away in Las Vegas for the weekend. My mom said to me "Dad said you don't want to watch the house." I said "It's not that I don't want to, I had already made plans." "What plans?" She asks. " and I were going to visit his mom." She scoffs and sarcastically says "Like those plans are sooo important." Am I in the wrong?

Question: My parents complain i use my phone too much?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:00 PM PDT

My laptop just broke and i don't own a tablet. The only way i can go online is to use my phone. I been saving money for a laptop. Why do they keep complaining? My laptop was 6 years old

Question: Is it wrong that I hate my little brother?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:50 AM PDT

I'm 26 and my little brother is 23 and growing up we never really had much in common. I came to the conclusion where I actually hate him and he's a sack of ****. I know he's family but I honestly don't care. Besides the fact that he has never had a job and lives with and mooches off our elderly great aunt he's just a shitty person who thinks the world revolves around him and can't take responsibility for anything and makes excuses. I've actually tried to get him a job where I work and he turned it down because he has " too much self dignity to work anything under 15 dollars an hour". It sounds ridiculous from a guy who never had a job or any college but he can't see that he sounds like a prick saying that. The issue is he thinks since he was an outcast growing up that everybody owes him **** and that he can say rude things to people without getting it back in return and then everyone else is the jerk. I tried to start hanging with him again recently but couldn't do it anymore because everything that came out of his mouth was something passive aggressively putting me or somebody else down or constantly judging others whom he has no business to do so. I got sick of his delusional self worth even though he's a bum and aint ****. I know this is more of a rant but I hate the fact that he takes advantage of our elderly aunt. She's real religious and can kind of be too nice even though she doesn't make much and my brother uses 200 or so dollars a week from her. I don't want to get into too much detail but one time I had people over and he was there and he started saying some really messed up things to people. If he wasn't my brother my friends would have most likely kicked his ***. I tried telling him about it and he bragged about how he"s " a ball buster" and didn't apologize to any of them until I stopped inviting him over.

Question: Someone just asked if my dad was my husband and if I'm my aunt and my uncle's sister?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:38 AM PDT

I'm a 17 year old Asian girl and recently I have been asked if I was my uncle's sister. Then today someone asked if my aunt and I are sisters. Last week, someone asked if my dad was my husband! Omg I'm freaking out. My aunt and my dad are both 42 and my uncle is 40. I take care of my skin every night, I buy expensive skincare products and do my own facial 4 times a week. WHY ARE PEOPLE SAYING THAT I LOOK LIKE THEM. DO THEY MEAN THAT I LOOK OLD. IM ONLY 17! HELP

Question: Is it better to stay an immigrant in USA and spend years on my couch while my wife goes to work and brings nasty food from supermarkets OR?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:28 AM PDT

should I go back to my homeland and try to start over and catch whatever few years my parents have left to live with them and try to take care of them though they are pretty self sufficient? Over here I also struggle with Anemia and loss of blood but back home I glow with Iron, so much good food, good water, just naturally makes you healed of all ailments. Here in California its like Chernobyl and food tastes terrible how can you eat that sh!t? I want to go home damn it! I'm not giving you any more of my time. Have not since 2010. You're getting notn from mwua~

Question: Little Sister Steals My Laptop?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:10 AM PDT

Ok, so a month ago my desktop broke, so I m stuck using my laptop. About two weeks ago my sister started taking MY laptop that I paid for with my own money to play some stupid online game. I ll throw the screen to the login screen and go to the bathroom. When I come back the laptop is gone. I looked aurond to see if it fell. Walk into my sister s room and see her on the laptop. I tell her nicely to give it back and she says no. So I sit on her bed and watch her. She is on my dad s account playing some weird online game while talking on her phone. I take the laptop out of her hands and close the lid. She screams and to make a long story short, I get grounded. And Guess what, she took the laptop back. It s not hers, I pay for the laptop and let my dad use it because of an app he uses for work that he cant run on his computer. but my sister just keeps on using it and my parents don t care. Her excuse is that I have too much nice stuff and I need to share it

Question: Is it wrong to dislike your parents because they are bad influences, use drugs, never have to work hard and have an 80 yr olf spoil them?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:08 AM PDT

And they smoke and don't want to quit even though I am allergic to nicotine. I am 23. I had to go in debt to get through school because my dad would not give me his income taxes.

Question: My sister is a mean and selfish human being, no one likes her. How do I find some good in her?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:04 AM PDT

Question: Why might it be that my Mom has much hatred in her heart and yet her sister has five times that hatred when their parents were not hateful?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 11:04 AM PDT

My grandparents taught me to forgive. My Mom and her sister have never forgiven although my Mom forgives her kids (my aunt doesn't even do that). They have a brother and he forgives, my Mom and aunt don't. Yet their parents were very forgiving and taught me how to forgive. Why the two daughters turned out so evil when their parents were so good?

Question: My mom is visiting until Saturday and my dad wants us to spend every second together today but I have other things to do. Why can't he?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 10:57 AM PDT

Understand? I am 23. She is a methadone addict and has stolen money from me.

Question: Creative ways to surprise visit someone?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 10:55 AM PDT

I live in NJ and I am going to Texas tomorrow to surprise visit my sister with dad. Which has been long over due. We get in around 9:00pm so ill be at her house 9:30/10pm because her house is like 10 min from the airport. What ways should I surprise her? Any ideas would be great!

Question: How Do I Get An Ear Piercing Without My Parents Noticing? Can I convince them?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 10:49 AM PDT

READ THE WHOLE THING BEFORE ANSWERING. I'm a 17 year old boy and I come from an interracial family. My dad being the old school Black Guy with family values morals that he sticks to (he hates stereotypical black customs btw. dont try it with him). One of which is making sure that no tattoos are on any of his children and no piercings on the boys. My mom is the more lenient, free spirited White mom. Very goal oriented but likes to have fun and live on the wild side. She does however, tend to hide her personality and side with my father if it goes down to choosing sides. Anyways, now that I have told you what my family is like, you could probably imagine their reactions if I came home with my ears pierced. My dad would give me hell, be on bad terms with me about it and grow a liking to it after about 6 months, just like any other thing I try. Now will I be able to pull this off? My father nor my mother ever come near my face unless they're leaning in for a kiss. However, my biggest concern is my skin tone. Despite being mixed race I am very fair skinned. Only a little darker than Lonzo Ball (example). I fear that the contrast of my skin and the redness on my ear is gonna give it away as soon as I get as close as 5 feet away from them. Once again, I am 17 so my father wouldnt beat me for something so stupid as having jewelry in my earlobes, but I'm afraid that I'll lose his trust and respect simply due to going against his morals and values. Please help T-T

Question: I want my mom to move to where my dad lives, any tips?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 10:38 AM PDT

My parents are divorced but I want to spend more time with my dad. I want my mom to move so I could spend one week at my moms and one week at my dads. Right now my parents live two hours from each other. It would be hard to get my mom to move because where we live now is where she grew up so she would have to meet new people and get a new job.

Question: My sister does not want me to record her after sge had surgery today. Why?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 09:37 AM PDT

She had a surgery this morning at 10am to expose her two top impacted second molars and they put a chain in there. She is 17 and they gave her laughing gas and shots. She did not like for me to record her in my mommas mazda suv on the way home. She was acting normal and I expected her to be like those people from YouTube. Now she wants to take a nap and not spend time with her family. Why would she decide to take a nap instead of hanging out with her family and why would she get mad about being videotaped?

Question: I feel bad for sneaking out?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 09:23 AM PDT

So, I am 19, but I still live with my parents. To my parents, this means that I live by their rules even though I am an adult. However I think my parents are completely too overprotective! They even have a tracking app on my phone. Well, yesterday, I turned it off, and I went out of town (about an hour and a half away) with my friends. (Something my parents never would have approved of.) And now I feel so guilty. What should I do?

Question: My cousin's wife keeps ignoring me as if I'm interested in her, its annoying me?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 09:22 AM PDT

My cousin married this woman exactly 3 years from today. They are in their mid to late 20s and his wife loves my cousin more than I've seen any other couple loving each other. She is always calling him her love and everything on Facebook. Every time there is a family gathering, my cousin is super chill. He is always joking around with us, he likes to have fun with us. He is also very caring. He always happy to see me and his relatives. When he greets me, he sometimes jokes around by tickling me or something. His wife though, she will see me, show a weak to decent smile, IF I offer a handshake, she will do no more than 1 second handshake and quickly let go. She won't even greet me if its not obvious. Its like she doesn't want to talk to me. I've never had any bad intentions of her. She's known me since my early teens. I'm a male, now 19. One evening I was at a party. When everyone was leaving, I was talking to one of my cousins who is a lady. She is one of the nicest I've known. The wife comes, she straight up kisses her goodbye, and I'm right there ready to say goodbye, and she ignores me and walks off. She respectfully communicate with my parents and two older sisters. I'm the only son. Her family is one of the nicest I've met. They greet me in a welcoming manner. Even my cousins who married their wives from other countries, we always joke around. We treat each other as family. But my cousins wife is frustrating me. What she did at the party I'm never going to forget.

Question: What should i do about my parents?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 09:06 AM PDT

My parents have been arguing for the past 4 days and sometimes it gets a little scary. Today my dad came home from work and they argued then he got pissed and trashed the hous before he left. My mom took pics of the house and said she was going to call the police. I convinced her not to and now she is in her room with a knife. They are both really mad at each other and im worried that the next time they argue it will turn physical. What should i do?

Question: How do I rule out Donald Trump as my DNA father? How about Bill Clinton?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 09:02 AM PDT

Question: Why do I still cry when I think about my dad who has passed away over 10 years ago?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 06:31 AM PDT

He passed away when I was a kid, I'm an adult now and it still hurts. I will never move on from it and I don't know why.

Question: My siblings are in a war and I am the target since I stayed neutral. What do I do?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 06:20 AM PDT

My parents died one year apart. I have four siblings. Two against two they have united. They have gotten their kids to join forces with them. My two aunt and uncle are united against my other two aunts. Their children are united behind their parents and so none of my nieces and nephews will now play with my son or be around us. My son is an only child with no mother. Family means a lot to him as he is in special ed classes at school for learning disabilities. His mother had drug problems and died when he was in infant. Her family wants nothing to do with us and was dysfunctional anyway. So my son and I are now alone. This has gone on for two years. Both sides are mad that I am not taking sides. Then I decided to take sides for my sons sake with the two fighting to keep the family farm but they wouldn't forgive me for not taking sides sooner. This is so childish and I am the only mature and normal one acting my age (42) and yet I am the one suffering. The other sides seem to be having fun in their hate for the other. What ideas might you have to get my son the family back he wants even if the adults are cowards? If it were just me I wouldn't care as much. The fighting is over who has what, whether to sell the farm or not, care for my mother after my Dad died and before she died, who was favored by who, and who took whose side in a previous dispute over an affair my brother had.

Question: My Mom is a narcissist. I am the golden daughter and I don't want to lose that. She hates my sister though. How do I reach out to sister?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 06:10 AM PDT

I see a lot of questions on here about narcissistic mothers. I think mine is. She has ridiculously high expectations and she showers me with gifts and praise and yet hates my sister and tries hard to get others to hate her as well. As a result we have not seen the hated sister in 3 years though my Mom has seen her once or twice. We can't see my Mom's family except my grandparents because they have embraced my sister. This infuriates my Mom. She especially resents the aunt that has no kids and has taken in my sister. I have two brothers and they are considered okay. They don't get nearly the praise I do but are tolerated and treated with some respect. My parents are divorced and so my brothers are closer to our Dad. I don't have much to do with my Dad since I want to keep my Mom's respect. I do see him twice a year. So how do I reach out to my sister without losing my mother? I am recognizing I am not as amazing and wonderful as my mother thinks but I do love her and want her to keep loving me. However she might turn on my if I am good to this sister of mine who she hates so much. I kind of feel bad for this sister now that I am realizing she is not as bad as I had though she was for the past 5-10 years. She is not amazing and perfect like my Mom wants but is not bad either. She is learning disabled so seems young for her age in personality, that is all. She is still normal functioning. I went to Princeton on a scholarship so am considered so good and her so bad. My sister never even did college. She was sent away to boarding school and my aunt who is good to her was usually the one to visit rather then my mother. Times my mother did she made it sound like such an amazing sacrifice she was making. My Mom is always the victim. I am always the hero and my sister is always the devil. My two brothers are just ignored and my Dad is also seen as the devil by my Mom. Any thoughts? I don't want to lose my Mom and her respect for me though. By the way I am 30 and my sister is 24 (brothers are 27 year old twins).

Question: Why don't people take responsibility?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 05:46 AM PDT

I have a sister and a grandmother (I use those terms lightly) that I just cannot stand. They are both lying, bullies, mean, nasty, thieves, offensive, etc. However, they never take responsibility for their actions. All they ever do is DEFLECT. This is why my mother and I DO NOT deal with them, now. Yes, they have done nice things for me. However, that doesn't take away from the way they still treated us. They do not know how to talk to people. Will make you feel bad about yourself, defenseless, etc and I am supposed to put up with that ****, because they've done nice things for me, before? That is complete bullshit. They love to throw in our faces what they did for us, as their defense for us not to stop dealing with them or confront them for their actions.

Question: My dad is constantly angry?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 05:40 AM PDT

he is always yelling about something and can never confront anybody at least in this house without yelling and shouting. if something isnt done perfectly he screams about it,if something doesnt go his way he complains and yells. and not only that but he drags it on. what do I do because its driving me crazy, Just yesterday i was making burgers and he started flipping out because i left some meat in the fridge because there was 5 pounds of meat. he also started flipping out because he couldnt find the remote. this is just an example

Question: My muslim boyfriend wants children but no marriage. Any idea what is happening?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 05:19 AM PDT

My boyfriend is a pakistani muslim and i'm a christian british. I respect his beliefs even if i don't share them.We both have 27 years old. He is a nice man and treats me very well but he often asks me to sleep with him and have a baby. I never accepted,specially because i don't know his family and if i get pregnant i will not feel secure since we are not married. He has a lot of plans for his future children but i don't understand his behavior because i know in his culture it's a bad thing to have children before marriage. And also i told me he works a lot in uk just to send more money to his family,specially litlle brothers. So why would he want more responsabilities ? Can someone tell me what can be happening here? I love him but i know this is not right in his culture and religion. Some people says he wants to leave me after,but he says he wants his children to follow his religion and speak his language,so how is this?

Question: Really concerned about my daughter?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 05:18 AM PDT

I was upstairs at the time. I heard loud noises downstairs, so I came and see that our cat is in the bird cage with the bird dead.. The bird cage was closed and definitely not accessible by a cat. My daughter was sitting there. She is 6 and took the cat and let it in the cage with the bird. I am really freaked out and I'm not sure what to do.

Question: How should I runaway from my moms house.?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 05:12 AM PDT

It s hit technically running away since I m no longer under 18. But I have a job and I m leaving to the military in a few weeks. I don t contribute to the house as far as buying groceries or cleaning up unless I m forced to. I spend money on my car insurance and my own pleasures. My family says I m selfish and that if I won t help out I have to go. I don t know why but I really don t want to help out. They are not poor. What s the best way to leave without leaving on bad terms ?

Question: Do you feel sorry for children who have parents who keep on having large number of kids that they cannot afford?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 04:34 AM PDT

Some people don't believe in using birth control because of their religious beliefs. They typically have anywhere from 8 to 12 kids and therefore intentionally put themselves into poverty. Do you feel sorry for the children who come from such parents?

Question: Why am I always the one who is at fault?? :*(?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 03:27 AM PDT

Its getting on my nerves so much. Like when I just want to sit for a few minutes after waking up . My aunt scolds me why I didnt clean up the bed and the mattress where the others where lying. And says the I am a lazybones. Ok I am lazy but she says it in a really bad way . Also thats not what triggered me .. She also said that my brother is really clean and does everything. Yeah he DOES everything .. He left his bed unclean and I had to clean it yeah :// Also not only my aunt but other people too. They say why my mother lets my big brother do everything while I ( a girl ) doesnt do anything. You know what I mean?? They mean it like my mother always scolds my brother to do things while she doesnt scold me and treats me like a princess. First of all WTF like they know whats going on in our house . Do they live with us ?? NO!! About 2 - 4 years ago I was a cleanfreak . I would totally freak out when my brothers left there thing lying around. And what ?? I was still called lazy and that I only throw things around. Well my other aunt said that I am really clean and praised me ( she is the only one who isnt like the others plus my other aunt) . So after a few years I stopped being like that and became lazy cuz even if I clean it becomes messy and others dont aprecciate me. Sometimes I do clean the house and if I do my mothers says why I didnt clean it better or why I didnt clean the other rooms... Also she always brags about my brother and I again its me.

Question: Am i a little kid?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 03:25 AM PDT

I am 15 years old and my brother who is 22 calls me a little kid, he treats me like a 4 year old. He says that i should play with toys, he is always saying how adorable and small i am even though i am taller than him and he also calls me a "little kid" and a "little boy". I wouldn't really consider 15 to be a "little kid". He was also surprised that i got a boyfriend, he says that dating is for "older people" and he was also surprised when he found out that i watch reality tv shows, he says that they are for teenagers and adults even though i am a teenager... He says that i should only watch cartoons. Do you think i'm a little kid? This is really bothering me.

Question: I'm jealous of my cousins relationship with each other?

Basically I'm super jealous of my cousins as they are two sisters who are close in age (a year apart) they share everything with each other and are soo close while I'm here with my brother who is four years older (I'm 16 he's 20) and wants nothing to do with me even tho we were so close as kids :( I don't know what answer I'm expecting but I just feel horribly lonely and my cousins are so sweet to me when I visit them but I'm always so envious of their relationship

Question: I'm jealous of my cousin and her sister?

Question: How can I convince my mom to move?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 01:04 AM PDT

So my dad passed away a few years back and my mom is engaged to a man who has cancer right now. He lives about an hour away from my mom and I and about half an hour to forty-five. minutes away from our Schoo. My mom teaches at my high school. I really don't like it at my high school and the only reason my mom is still teaching there is because she wants to stay until I finish high school. After I graduate, she is going to move in with her fiancé and look for a job in administration near him. Would it be wrong to talk to her about moving in with him now? I figure that since he lives alone it would be nice to help him out, especially on his rough days. He's rented a house there for awhile and just bought the house next door to him. He is going to fix it up and move in. Does this make it the wrong time to move in with him because well just have to move again once the house is done? I am just really unhappy at my high school. I have thought about it for a long time and everything is starting to fall into place except my mom would need to find. a job before summer ends and we would have to move before school starts. Am I being selfish by making her stay in our old home or is it selfish to ask this of her? Thank you.

Question: My brother has been to jail in his youth. He is now married with a child. Do I tell his wife about his past?

Posted: 08 Aug 2017 12:02 AM PDT

Yes I do have bitterness towards my brother and my parents. He's a Christian now and constantly judges our family and people. We lost our home because of him. We had to move into an apartment. I had no transportation, I left college. I took care of him, helped him with his education. My parents didn't pay my education or transportation. They bought him a new car at 17, and he chose to commit crimes. We used our resources to get him out of jail. I asked him for help, he refuses.

Question: Are my parents old?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 11:29 PM PDT

My mom is 40 (which I know is not old), but my dad is 54 which is what I'm really worried about. I'm 13 and by the time I'm 20 my dad will be around 61! I hate the idea of my dad dying. Is my dad old for my age? And btw, my dad is overweight and has high blood pressure which might result in him dying earlier which makes me even more sad. :(

Question: What should I do if my mom smacked me across the face?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 11:28 PM PDT

She smacked me because I called her a drunk (because she is. She's an alcoholic who also smokes INSIDE even though one of my brothers and I have asthma) And she called all of her kids disgusting And says they're all lazy and stupid And like five days ago she called me fat She told the same brother that has asthma that she hates him after he pushed her and she tripped over the vacuum and fell onto the floor and passed out for five minutes Because she went into his room, insulted his girlfriend for having her period and accidentally didn't throw away a Kotex, then called her a *****.

Question: My mom takes my brother and I's phone away every night and it's summer. He's 11 and I'm 13. She can't trust us to keep it in our room. Help!?

Question: My dad told me he would kill himself if i dated a black guy?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 10:00 PM PDT

My family does not allow me to date black people. My sister dates a black guy and she lives with him now, and my dad told me if i started dating a black guy, he would kill himself. He wasnt joking because he was crying when he said it. Him telling me this has made me feel sad and more depressed than usual. I dont know what to do about this. Advice please.

Question: How to deal living with lazy, filthy, and emotionally sensitive people?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 09:55 PM PDT

Unfortunately, that is the case here. My 17 year old brother is that way. I can't move out yet until I save up enough money, but that is not possible until about perhaps 6 months to one year. We are literally polar opposites. I'm a clean freak, type A personality. He's not at all. We always argue about cleanliness. It's a 50/50 chance with him. Sometimes hell clean and sometimes he won't. What's worse, is that a lot of the time is that I get so frustrated living in filth that I end up cleaning and angry that I'm cleaning because of his lazy personality who literally spends all the majority of his day playing video games in the couch. Then when I get mad and tell him to help me, it's a problem. I don't know how to tell him and he's passive aggressive about it. He won't be clear about how t ask him "politely" like, really I have to tell you? Just do it!!!! Especially if you don't like the way I ask you.

Question: Is my mother Controlling me?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 08:50 PM PDT

Hi guys here is my situacion I have been dating my boyfriend for almost a year now I'm 21 and he is 23. I currently live in my mothers house because I'm still in the university completing my degree and I do have a job and pay for my college. My mother decided to put a curfew on me witch I don't mind is her house after all but, I told her I was planning a trip with him to go visit his family in another state. She basically said that I cannot sleep in another house, I cannot travel with him if I do I will immediately be thrown out of the house. Also if I move out she is charing me for the car and the repairs, I have to pay her back for my insurance plan, and I have to leave a butch of stuff behind. I know that he will let me stay in his house and I have friends to stay with but I find it childish. He is a good guy in my eyes and I'm just traveling to see his parents and I have traveled to many places before with my family. She basically threw on my face that is a Latino culture with I find very stupid since I'm already an adult. It very much frustrates me but i just don't know what do to at this point.

Question: Why are sons/brothers jealous of father daughter love? its not the same?!?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 08:00 PM PDT

why not respect it as a separate kind of love like mother son etc each role is separate distinct and Holy....husband wife...friend.... they try to destroy it even!! is it because if men love their daughters ..bad men cant find a wife? (cant prey on women?) that's even worse! it would mean also your mother cant love you either and you'd be S.O.L.!! why do that to yourself!? (your mother also prays "father" and wants fatherly love/.. so youd lose all love!!! by attacking your sister /woman etc....

Question: My mom makes me want to kill myself?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 07:33 PM PDT

She just got out of a bad relationship and when she was in it all she did was yell. She was mean actually. They were broken up for a good 2 months and he moved out and everything bit now there back together and she s yelling at everyone. I feel like a brat for saying this stuff but I have to do everything around the house. The dishes floors dust watch a 2 and a 3 year old a lot of the time and it seems like all the stuff I dodo isn t noticed. Only ate stuff I don t do. She hates me it feels like. I ll say I love you and she ll hang up on me. Tonight I had plans to go out with some friends and she was alright with it but my sister didn t take out the trash. Jar only chore and that put my mom in a bad mood so I can t go now I just feel like I m done with being alive. I told my mom that I didn t like her with him because it was a bad relationship and he mad her feel bad about herself and then I got yelled at. She got so mad at me one time she told me to sit in the hot car and I was almost in when one of the people there yelled at her because she was being crazy. I just don t think I can deal with this anymore. My mom spends all her money on cigarettes and stuff for herself. I have to pitch in to get feed and school supplies for my sister and I. I just buy a lot of things and never get thanked or payed back even when I m promised. And if you attempt suicide and don t succeed you ll be out in a mental hospital or something. I just wanna be dead and see my papa in heaven.

Question: What's the best personalized message to send to your mother for her birthday?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 07:15 PM PDT

I'm getting a greetabl and I have the box, gift, and pictures picked out, but I don't have a clue what to put in for the message. I'm 32. She will be 57. The box is a birthday box. I picked out marshmallow chocolate because they say that reminds you of what it was like when you were a kid. The photos are of me and her when I was a newborn, 4, and 7 or 8. What should my message be?

Question: What would you do?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 06:57 PM PDT

If you want your child to have a relationship with their father and their father has visitation on weekends that he barely keeps up with he wants to bring the baby home early or late or on his time he barely pays child support, he says he is going to watch you struggle and his mom stabs you with baby in arm? Would it be best to get full custody or for him to get supervised visits. The child s grandma is CRAZY literally! I just want to keep the child safe and away from her

Question: Brother and I had a bad fight?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 06:31 PM PDT

We have always been very close. We are best friends. However, a few days ago we got in a pretty bad fight because he doesn't like my boyfriend. He thinks my boyfriend is a dick. Anyways, I told my boyfriend about it the day after and he broke up with me because he thought I believed my brother. I do, now. Anyways... I really want to talk to my brother about it, I want him to comfort me like he always does, but I'm afraid to ask him. I'm afraid to call him. What if he declines? Or doesn't pick up? What if he yells at me "I told you so?" If I do call him, what do I even say? I wish he was right here, like when I was little, but we are both adults now and have our own places so I can't just go in his room.

Question: I'm going to run away from my mother and her girlfriend?

Posted: 07 Aug 2017 06:18 PM PDT

I'm 17. I pay for my own phone completely independent from my mother and her girlfriend. I paid for my own truck. I have my own Job that I got for myself. I am expected to take care of all of our animals and go to work everyday then come home and continue to take care of them by myself. The truck that I got needs repairs and my mother said she would do it for me because she has mechanical back round. I have 2 goats 13 chickens and 2 cats. These animals ARE NOT JUST MINE. I DID NOT ASK FOR THEM. yet I am solely responsible for them and their wellbeing. My mother says that if I don't take care of them she won't fix my truck. What do I do. It's too much and they won't help me with the animals
