I live with my parents and siblings due to limited housing in my area, and I pay my parents rent in addition to buying groceries for the household and paying half of the utility bills. I feel like my mother is turning me into her personal slave as she wants me to clean the entire house everyday after work, do yard work such as planting flowers in the garden, babysit siblings, and cook weekly meals. I have a full time job and work a second part-time job, so I have no extra time to do unnecessary tasks aside from cleaning my areas and what I use. My mother says that I am responsible for helping out since I live under "our" roof, but her expectations are beyond just helping out. In addition she treats me like I am a child. If tasks are not done to her satisfaction or if I am unable to do something, she yells and lectures me on being responsible. She also monitors where I go and what I buy in addition to trying to control everything. For example, I took a trip out of town for summer vacation and she expected me to pay for my siblings to go with me. Until I can find another place to live, how can I set boundaries?

My mom's husband died last year and so did her mom (my grandmother) the deaths were back-to-back; one month apart. She's stating they both died of natural causes - her husband was a drug dealer and she basically got what she wanted, money, drugs, etc. My grandmother died a little differently and odd. My mom stated she stumbled across the death of my grandma inside of her living room and said things weren't right such as the screen door being open as well as the lights on at midnight. What's odd about this death is that another family member (who's on her side of the family) called and informed me of my grandmother's death, instead of her. Granted, her and I were not talking then and we still aren't. However, due to these deaths being back-to-back, I don't believe in coincidences. If they happen more than once they become evidence. Aside from that, my mom is on drugs, she's money hungry and manipulative. I've removed myself from her because she's the reason that I am on my own now. What do you guys think?

So I'm 15 and live with my mom and brother. I don't get along with my family much so I tend to stay in my room. So the thing is, I clean up only what after I do, my brother, on the other hand, is always making messes everywhere. His room is a mess, his WiiU, Nintendo Switch, and all other devices are all over the living room, he uses the dining room to do homework but never cleans after himself, and never puts his dishes in the dishwasher (btw he is 11). My mom never tells him to do anything and it is so aggravating! I do help do some chores (wash MY dishes, clean MY bathroom and MY room, and clean after MYself). But she always calls me out on not helping clean the house even when it is his mess! I told her that I shouldn't clean after my brother, and he should take his own responsibility, then maybe I would help more. She keeps telling me that "he is young" and "it is a girl's job to clean the house" and that" she cleans after everyone so I should help." Also, she has to always help him with his homework, he always has behavioral problems in school, and gets much lower grades than I ever did! I have always had straight A's and never gotten ONE complaint from school, sure I have failed a few tests, but I ask for help when I need it and do everything on my own! Is it fair that my brother has to do less than me because he is younger, or is he just spoiled like I think he is?

My mom has a low income job. We werent born in the U.S so she doesnt have a degree, she got a job that could keep us alive. She has been married to this piece of **** abusive **** of a stepdad of mine, who mistreats her every single day. He doesnt hit her physically, but he gets all up in her face and screams at her and tells her he can make her hate her life. Threatens to kick us to the streets and treats my mom like dirt. I hate him, to death, so much, hes this big bodybuilder, with a brain as small as they come. But ive put up with him because he keeps us in a home. My mom is tired of it and has told me we are moving out, many times, every night they scream and i cant fall asleep. My mom, cant afford for us to live without him, but she cant handle it anymore. I dont know what to do, Not even if i got a part time job would i be able to make up for all she has to pay. This sucks, and im not going to take my stepdad treating my mother like dirt for another second. My blood BOILS when i hear him mistreat my mother. Over the past 6 years i swear to god me and my mom have become so distant we used to be so close, but he has turned her into a lifeless, hating angry person. I look at her and i feel like shes gone, like hes taken her joy of life, her happiness has left her. I just want to know if there is any way for me to be able to support my mom until i can leave to college and i wont be an issue. Im 16 years old, i dont want to steal and sell drugs because i was raised better.

I've been depressed over some confusing things in my past lately and my mom's been putting a lot of pressure on me. Recently she didn't approve of a life choice I made, and she asked me, "You have a right to be happy, but don't your parents also have a right to be proud of their only child?" Is this normal? Am I just ungrateful to not inherently understand this? I am not a loser even though I feel like one. I've been told by friends' parents that my parents should be proud of me. Culture might be an issue, but over time and meeting others from my culture, I'm leaning more towards it's a personal issue.

Everytime I talk to my parents about how I'm feeling, it always end up with my parents giving me lectures for three hours about if I don't like this family, I should sign up for adoption. I'm really frustrated and sad. This is the problem: I have a dad who is secretly having affairs with girls because my mom is busy cooking and don't have time to have sex everyday like my dad wants. My dad has been sending money to his girlfriends when they ask him for money to buy things, and said a lot of things behind my mom like how he wishes my mom could die. he also complain a lot about my mom to me, ONLY ME (i have a little sister who is 13) saying that my mom has super bad attitude and she's serious about everything. when he foundout about we busted him, he gave me lectures about "privacy" I don't want to tell my mom about my dad because her brother and father recently passed away, one died from cancer, and the other died naturally. my mom is also a perfectionist and if we don't do anything perfect she will start calling my sister and I farm animals and failed abortions...etc both my parents get mad easily and they can wake up in the morning and start screaming and stuff. they often compare our family to homeless people's lives and low income families, telling me that this family is the best. I'm fed up with secrets and i'm getting crazy, I am just so frustrated, I really have no idea what to do.

If my mom doesn't like something she'll say "That's so gay." I don't really understand it because she's not against gay but she says "gay" what does it mean?

I am a 20 year old Half-White guy, who lives with my single Korean mom. She has raised me single since birth and I never knew my father. She is a corporate Lawyer with a successful carrer but crappy dating life. She is a large woman standing 6'3 250 pounds and has always been overweight. I on the other hand am 5'10 180 pounds with a muscular build. My mom has always pushed me towards being good looking and popular. She has been really obessed with my appearence and aspires for me to be a professional model. She has always pushed me to workout and diet, play football and do mma. She would even have me take modeling photo-shoots, and would brag about me on social media. She has go with her on dates to formal events, and will show off my physique to her friends. Unlike most asian parents she didnt care much about education and focused mainly on my looks. She has said things like "I am so happy to have a normal sized son" and "your mixed features make you so beautiful". The one comment she told me when she was drunk was "I am so proud to raised such a sexy son, better looking than any man that rejected me, you are the only man I ever need" She blames her size for lack of success in dating. My Grandma does crack jokes about her size occasional, and I know Korean culture is hostile to larger women. I love my mom, and I am happy with who she pushed me to become, but I think she might be seeking validation.

Since my guy lives far away he is going to get a hotel for one night so we can have sex. He'll be spending the night there. I can't bare the thought of having to go back home that night and be separated from him. We've been with each other for a year now. I'm 20 years old and I live with my parents. My dad isn't a problem but my mom is. My mom is very overprotective and over bearing. Every time I go out with someone new she tells me how they might rape me or kidnap me. My mom is very uptight. The only reason why I have to tell her is because I live at home and she'll worry about me all night if I don't tell her. She'll think that something happened to me. The problem is is that she is STILL going to freak out and react badly. She's going to be like "What if he drugs you? What if he kidnaps you? What if he kills you?" (I've known this guy for a long time and he is definitely not that type of person.) I'll admit that my mom has kept me down, oppressed, and has held me back from doing a lot of things that I want to do for a long time. At least I go to college, have friends, and have a cool dad. Things would be a lot worse without that. So, how do I tell her and how do I deal with her negativity?

When was the moment you realized, and how did you change the way you went through life with them?

It pisses me off. I'm not a prop to enhance the environment. Some of you need to calm down, sit down and breathe. By acting normal, I don't mean sulking.

To make a long story short, I have been living at home due to a massive stroke. This has given my overbearing Mother a great opportunity to totally run my life. More recently I have met someone my Parents HIGHLY disapprove of. So, ever since She has been eavesdropping on my conversations, trying to look at my phone(or take it away, and pretty much always looking over my shoulder. I don't bring up said guy at all and She'll find any opportunity to bring him up and then yell at me(again) for talking to him. Which then spurs the beginning of a lecture. She also constantly points out that I'm the cause of my Parents stress or problems. I'm currently 33 and they are also trying to get adult guardianship. I hate Her and it's a nightmare.

And her bf was thrown in jail for assault of a senior citizen ! But my sister lives with my father and so we fixed the home to protect her and her 4 children and my father from her insane boyfriend. But she went as far as selling her ebt for cash and writing bad checks and she got him out of jail and this surprised me and now he is back to being abusive and he beat up her ex bf last night! But now she is asking my 52 year old mother to allow her to stay with her and take on her children but my sister says she has a friend that lives in Tennessee and my mom said she would take her down there and drop her off in Tennessee for free (5hour drive one way) but my sister wants to stay in this town for some reason but in my mother's house now she claims that she doesn't want to take her kids out of school but I think it is bs but my mom wants my opinion and I honestly don't want her at my mom's place cause we have been through it too many times and it is like the boy cried wolf and my mom has went through so much for her and she is tired of it any ideas we could do with this situation?

My mom just drops me off at church and doesn't believe in God herself.

Ok before i get critisized for this question let me tell you why im posting it, just recently hes been making squeaking, high pitched noises. But all his life hes made wierd noises and always acted wierd like walking with his hands up like a kangaroo and making wierd faces. When you tell him to act normal he sais "its not me its daisy" wich is my little dog, a small 9 lb dog. Also since he was 5 he always used to hurt daisy. He would yank her legs, sqeeze her skin, and one time even broke her leg. Shes fine now and i always make sure to watch her but since we live on a ranch, my dad jokes around and sais hes in charge of the farm. Hes 10 years old and all hes been doing for the past year is chilling with the 100 chickens we have. And the past year weve been finding chickens with broken legs and featherless chickens. And just recently i caught hin in the act. I saw him with a chicken in a bucket and watched him for a little. Then i saw him cruely pull all the feathers off its head only and break its leg then shuve it inbetween a chair so he can watch it struggle without it limping away. My dad didnt do anything about it and hes in normal classes at school. Can this be autisim or something. I really think hes got a mental problem at this point

Ok I used to never talk I used to be quiet I kinda wish I didn't changed that now, because when I don't feel like talking and if I'm quiet she'll think something is wrong or if I'm cranky her saying that makes me like that but I still remain calm, not just that but she won't shut up she'll find something to talk about even if it's just about birds outside I have my days where I don't want to talk sometimes but also want to be outside hard to do when your mom is driving you crazy because won't be quiet lol

PLEASE hear me out first, or read me out obviously. She is my only one. She's my miracle child. I had her when I was diagnosed as infertile and with PCOS. I have no other children and care about her a lot. As someone in her 40's, I have many years of experience going through what she did like dating, college, parties, out with friends, and I don't want her to possibly make the same mistakes. I'll admit I didn't make the best of choices at her age. Not only that but we don't live in the safest city. She's 20 and moved out of the house for college a couple years ago which she lives on campus in a dorm. Her college is in the same city as I live in. I've been texting her almost everyday because I care about her that much but she told me to leave her alone which doesn't make sense because as her mother, I have a right to be in her life and watch out for her. Her father lives in a different state. The ONLY reason I ask who she's dating, where she is, remind her to get annual check-ups at doctors, etc. is because I care and love her. The ONLY reason I point out if she's eating something unhealthy (when she visits me during holidays) is because I care and love her. The ONLY reason I point out if her clothes are exposing too much is because I care and love her. But she doesn't understand that (obviously because she doesn't have kids yet and hasn't been alive as long as I have). I just want my daughter to be safe, healthy and make the right decisions. But she's getting angry instead...

So last Saturday night I had gone out for clubbing and I got drunk without any limits (do not know why I did that) and I was wearing heels hence I ended up tripping and falling face first & broke my front teeth. It was a horrible night, I feel pathetic for drinking so much. As I got home, my parents saw me and they got absolutely furious at me. My mom almost came to beat me up & my dad cried because of my behavior. But for my parents this became the perfect excuse to start blaming my friends for what happened to me. It wasn t my friends fault, it was me who went out of limits. Although my teeth have been fixed. My dad has literally grounded me from going anywhere out with them. He s told me to cut ties with all my friends & my boyfriend too. When it wasn t even my boyfriends fault. I really miss my boyfriend, and I am not even being able to meet him. What do I do? How do I make my dad understand?

So I'm asking what can I do that will make him treat me fairly?

Ever since my brother turned about 16 we stopped talking, and if we talked it was only arguing. I knew nothing about him but I did know he had too much fun (TOO MUCH) and now after 2-3 years he has noticed that we are not close anymore so he started talking to me about how he is dating 3 girls at once, going to casino and i am so worried and sad because my brother is not who he used to be. I basically dont have my old brother anymore and I cry a lot because I miss being close to someone.

but really iam tortured.i cant undrestand anyone.my parents torture me.even my sister do a rough behave with me .iam boy.of 17 years old.

As a child I remember my mother ridiculing me for speaking in a baby voice , despite this being how I talked. So as an older child I started speaking deeper and deeper to keep my mom off of my back and it s gone on for a while. Now I m 17 and a half, and I finally tried to come out to my mom because speaking so deeply is taking it s toll on my throat. My mom hates my real voice and believes I m playing purposefully into a little girl fetish or that I m faking it for... attention? I m not sure, she s mostly just upset and acting weird at the moment. Opinions? Where are the other people this has happened to? I need advice, I feel so stuck and sick to my stomach.

Hi, okay so... I don t feel safe nor wanted in my house. It feels like a house, not a home. My mum is abusive, and I just don t feel like I should be living here, it doesn t feel right. My friend s family is willing to take me in. I m getting a job so I can help pay for their expenses since I m going to be moving in. But my mum would seriously freak out and call 911 if that happened. How do I get kicked out? Before any of you are saying, "Bad idea." No, I ve been wanting to leave since as long as I could remember, I ve been thinking about it for years. I m just too young to make any legal decisions yet.

Okay so in short, I told my mom I was going to the apartment pool. She got so upset (tone of voice was changing) and she said that it is socially unacceptable of me to go to a pool at night when the rain stopped only one hour ago and it is night time. I told her I beg to differ and who even cares. She basically said that she is NEVER socially wrong and is ALWAYS socially right. And that I am not always socially right (I actually do have a mild form of autism). But my sister and dad straight up said my mom is weird. And here are SOME of the things my mom did or does 1. Calls me on the phone AGAIN IMMEDIATLY after I did not answer the first time because she needed help with the groceries (I did not answer the first time because I was drying my hands) 2. She says it is EXACTLY 6:00 when it is 6:03 3. She used to always say things like "teenage boys do this" "teenage boys are that" and such to me when I AM THE ONE who WAS a teenage boy. She was NEVER a teenage boy. I WAS. I am almost twenty and done being a teenage boy. 4. She YELLS in someone ELSES house. She is NOT in her house. 5. She EATS raw cookie dough of mine that I bought when in my DADS house (NOT her home anymore) without even asking 6. She always asks me if I have to "pee" when we are in a public area around strangers. My mom said she is always socially right. And she thinks I am not always socially acceptable. Yes I will admit I did do things that were socially wrong (everyone has too). But I have caught her doing things that are socially wrong too. She gets defensive (well I did too, but still, I did NOT deserve to be treated that way) and upset. She says she wants to help me not be socially awkward so I can have friends (I have had some friends, and still do. But friendship skills are not my strength) and I told her I would rather have no friends than have someone cut me down. Anyways that is the shorter version of the story (well sorta). Is my mom wrong, arrogant, hypocritical or anything? P.S. even though I have caught my mom being socially wrong, I will admit that I have done wrong things to (everyone has). But it is highly wrong to say you are always socially right and cut down people who are not. She said she was only trying to help me but she was talking impolitely (so doesn't sound like it).

Simple as that, My dad treats me like **** at home. I'm constantly called; Little ****, or Disappointment or full of attitude and anything on the lines of that. i don't know if i can cope with it anymore. my parents are divorced. I'm wondering if i should just live with my mum Simple as that, My dad treats me like **** at home.

I asked not that long ago if my family hated me because of the rude fat references they would make, but here is a comment I got, "From what you described, it doesn't sound like your father was bullying you. In fact it sounds like you are being disruptive. Just because you didn't choose to be born doesn't mean you get to be snarky and uncooperative. If you want things to change, with your family, I suggest you take responsibility for your attitude, apologize to your parents and from here on out learn to be a team player. Even if you only mean it a little bit. Saying it out loud will demonstrate maturity. Lieutenant Uhura · 4 weeks ago " What do you think? Update: I want to hear what you guys think.

I grew up in a good family, with dinners, love, baseball games, movie nights, etc. and I'm starting to feel life becoming like a video game, not a life. Like, why do I need a job with benefits when I'm just making small payments every month? Is health insurance just bonus points? When I read online on my phone, are the articles just being written for visual appeal or busy work because I'm taking the time to read? I'm just a character. My food intake is food because it's food. I can't eat tires, grass, cardboard, or anything else. Why? It probably sounds crazy, but why? We are always put into situations that are created or given. Like my doctor's appointment. Why are there people trying to fix me when I'm just one of 6 cases? My boyfriend had a Christmas party and I went to it. Why were these situations given to me? My work is my work because I see it as a rescue island compared to other companies out there. It's good for me, but not someone else, why? I went on vacation in third grade, why? This is how I was created right? Maybe I'm just over tired.

My mom starts drinking at 4 pm everyday and she keeps drinking til 12-2 am everyday. She doesn't have a job and a bottle of rum or vodka lasts her 2 days. Is this an alcoholic? I have tried telling her to quit and she even tells me to hide her alcohol, which i do, and then she yells at me for hiding it. She tells me to write contracts for her, and then she breaks them the next day. Her entire life is a joke, I tell her she drinks too much and then she starts acting like i'm insane. Please tell me what to do. She is such a hypocrite, she tells us our coke in the fridge needs to last us until friday, and then the ***** drinks it all. She makes my life living hell and I tell her she just doesn't care. I'm going to the doctor in a couple of weeks for a checkup, should I tell our PCP that she drinks way too much?

So im 15 and im afraid of what will happen. After seeing what happened in Texas I am frozen scared. Im scared for my family and my friends. My 2 sisters are coming to my house to stay safe. My dad has a electricity generator, food, water, and is going to bundle up our house, and we have many flashlights. My grandma says not to worry, because my dad has it all under control. Should I be afraid and what can I do to help? Please pray if it is not too much trouble.

Long story short she caused drama and hadn't done what cps has asked. (She lost her kid) And we are twins and I live right above her and her boyfriend mother (duplex) My twin acts like a child and I'm the only one that helps Her but she is so immature I can't even get through to her. Idk why she's is like a child but I'm the only one in my family to help her. But she now wants me and my husband to baby and house her. We have been telling her she needs to go to rehab and it's been a week and she's just been sitting on her *** and watching YouTube videos Everyday. I want to kick her out but I feel guilty but it's getting to the point where I can't deal with a 23 yo acting like a kid....

My grandpa remarried is his wife's kids my step aunt/uncle?

It makes me upset because I want to be able to hold and see my nephew. But my sister doesn't trust me because she thinks my anger issues will make me want to hurt the baby. I don't know why she thinks that but I won't dare to hurt the baby. How can I persuade her to let me hold and touch the baby?

My sister is seven and in 2nd grade, and they are taking a field trip to a museum next month. I am 23. I'm living at home right now because I recently got laid off, and my mom is trying to convince me to chaperone the trip since I haven't been doing much recently. I mean, the museum sounds like fun, also spending time with my sister, but kids freak me out. I haven't spent much time with kids other than my sister, and my sister is actually super nice and not like other kids. My sister likes the idea, though. Should I do it?

I'm 31 and I don't remember even in my teenage yrs getting into arguments as bad as we do now. They are 64 and 65, so Idk if it's them getting old and out of touch that they get upset so easily. I'm married with a 16 mnth old. We can't have a conversation w/o them criticizing me.They say I dont act or think like a normal 31 yr old. They hold it over me that i didnt finish my undergrad degree in 08. It gets so bad to the point that i just want to curse them out, but i never have. They want to decorate our new house the way they want it to look. My dad's siblings say my dad always has to be right. I know they're stressed because my brother has been in prison since early March of last yr and we're finally riding two hrs to go see him tomorrow, my parents,my son, and I. He's never seen his nephew b4, but will tomorrow for the 1st time.Its been a family embarrassment for the past yr (my brother), but they constantly call me a retard and talk to me any kind of way in front of my son and i told them to stop or we won't be coming around them and they won't have any children at all to come see them. My hubby has his issues where hes been abusive to me and has threatened to kill my parents, kill himself doesnt like my parents and they don't like him. I say one thing they don't agree with and they jump down my throat. I'm eventually gonna pull away from them. I grew up in a nice loving household loving my parents to death and ppl calling our fam the huxtables.

So I live in a family of 5, me, my mom and dad, and my grandparents. My sister moved out a while ago. We have rented out our old house for a few years now and the renters said they re moving out. They re very bad and messy people and have been labeled "pignappers" for a good reason. So we want them out asap. When they officially move out, my family will technically be losing $1000 a month. My mom is working extra as a nurse and my dad works for a granite countertop making company. I m 13 and wondering what I can do to help them with debt and earning money. My mom has also just finished a college year (14 months) for her job and now we have to pay for that including a ton of other things for my sister. Please help.

Recently, I learned that my father believes in all sorts of crazy stuff, not ordinary ''I believe the moon landings was faked,'' but like that the goverment controls peoples thoughts with drugs, that alot of things like 9/11 and that the military is up to alot more other weirder stuff. Basically, how would you be reacting? Telling a psychologist to have them talk to the parent? Just cutting ties and leave? It's a big deal because he doesn't believe in just a few ones but literally all of them. Plus we left a reflector pad on the moon that bounced a laser from Earth and back which proves we went there since the dust that the moon is isn't reflective.

I'm 18 years old and my grandma passed in February and me my mom and her boyfriend who I cannot stand have been living all together and we're still in my grandmothers house they tried to say they were going to move out and she always said it's not possible because they spend all their damn money on food and go to he store everyday and her boyfriend is a deadbeat and doesn't do anything she forced him to get a job and a deadline but still isn't bringing in money to her and I graduated in May and I'm still grieving over my grandmother and I have severe social anxiety and she keeps yelling at me and making everything seem like it's my fault and keeps asking me to get a job and pay bills I just hate them so much I wish my grandmother was alive cause I'm so sick of them I've held my tounge for too long and I really needed to vent

So I went to the park today for my lunch break and saw something so upsetting. Basically a mother of these two girls, I would say probably about 10 and 7 years old, was yelling at the 10 year old to leave her alone. She kept yelling stuff like "why can t you just leave me alone for 3-5mins I have to talk to someone and need privacy" and the girl didn t want to. She started crying really hard and the mom just didn t stop. When the little girl asked if she could explain herself the mom was just like "no! not now!" and proceeded to say stuff like "what do you want from me what do you want?!!" I understand that parents need privacy but how can you treat your child like that? When you tell a 10 year old that you need to be left alone without an explanation they feel like something is happening, maybe even because of them. The girl clearly just wanted some acceptance from her mom and she was having no mercy. So heartbreaking to witness. Do you guys think she was a bad mother? She was making a scene for the entire public to see not caring that her daughter was already feeling guilty and crying. Also when the younger sister came up to her and asked if she was okay but the mother didn't, that says a lot in my opinion.

Yes I am 29 and a mother of 3. Right now I'm in the process of relocating for career wise and to build with my mate. I live with my mom for right now because she is disabled and sick. My mom gets no income. My sister and I both pay the rent and light bill. My mate and I are about to get housing together. My intermidate family doesn't understand that I have a family to focus on. They just assume that I have to give up my life to be with my mom and close to family. They don't know I'm leaving soon and starting a new beginning. I'm thinking about marriage and settling down being that I went to college and finished obtaining my associates degree.

So im 14 and i hate my dad. The first reason is that he always talks about money. Second reason is that he hasnt had a job for 6 years. Third reason is that he wastes all his money on his car and alcohol (hes an alcoholic, like shaky hands and red face alcholic). Fourth reason is that he smokes in the house and my clothes smell like cigarette. Fifth reason he always repeats himslef and says the same stupid things everyday. Sixth reason is that hes cocky. Last reason is that hes extremely over protected. For example, i live near a park thats not even 1 mile away and he wont let me walk there (i dont own a bike cause it has no use to me due to my dad not letting me go anywhere. What do you guys think of him? Also if you have any advice for me please share.

This is a long story. I'm the youngest out of my family and I have 2 older siblings. When I was 3 years old, my parents got a divorce. I was so young so I didnt understand what was going on. My mom asked for child support( even though she didn't need it) which made my dad struggle a lot. My dad would always struggle with finding money. Anyways he started dating one of the people he works with.( she worked for him before the divorce) She helped my dad find money and made him happy. My mom would always tell us bad things about her which weren't true and act like she was so bad. ( she really wasn't) eventually my mom met someone. I really hate him. He tries to act like my dad and " discipline" me. My stepmom is like my actual mom. She's taught me so much. I like her more than my mom, considering the things my mom had done. My mom apparently got married before she met my dad and lied about it, she used to hit my dad when they got in arguments, doesn't care about me or my siblings AT ALL, and only cares about money. I'm only 14 and I'm put under a lot of stress right now because of my mom. I had depression at a really young age and never told anyone about it because of her. I'm really struggling mentally on how to handle this situation. Please help......

Ok so let me keep this as short as possible. My ex and I had dated way back in 2005 and things did not work out between the two of us and we ended up going our seperate ways and found out I was pregnant. When I told my ex that I was pregnant he did not want to have anything to do with my daughter and he advised me to get an abortion. Anyways now my daughter is in middle school and she is a bright beautiful little girl. She made A&B Honor Roll for four straight years in elementary. Here's the problem my ex has NEVER seen my daughter he only saw photos of her on my fb page. I always try to update him on my daughter's status to keep him in the loop. So today i received a message from him that his job is flying him here on Monday for work (he does not live in the same state as me) and he asked to see her. I did not message him back but when I asked my daughter if she wanted to take this chance to see her real father for the first time in her life and she told me no. My daughter does not want to see him because she said he is a total stranger to her and that she has never seen her real father so what should i say to him? I feel bad for my ex because he is trying but my daughter does not want to see him for the life of me i don't know why :(.

We are in the path of it and the eye wall and the landlord even said no one is allowed to be in the mobile home when it hits but they still won't leave I don't want to call the law enforcement but I love them too much to let them stay. What should I do?...

My mom wanted to stay in for an extra day (she works 6 days out of the week) so she can rest. She called in sick via voicemail because that's how Dole handles this policy. Unfortunately the voicemail did not go through. How do we get proof that she called in sick? She is very upset right now because they're going to issue a warning.

My last Grandpa just passed away. He didn't suffer too much before his death. In fact he was walking around and laughing the day before he died. He was 85 and had bad lungs because he smoked and had a bad heart. I know lots of people 90 plus years old. I am only 14 and I want him to stay here for Grandma so she wont be alone.I want my Grandpa back. I need him home. How can I get through this? help me
