Question: How do live with divorced parents?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 02:12 PM PDT

My parents are divorced. They both have custody of me. I live with one for a few days then the other one. It's really hard and they won't listen me. I keep forgetting stuff at one place then not having one at the other parents house. I feel like there taking it out on me. My sister leaves her stuff all the time then she is in trouble. Like we can't leave clothes from dad's at mom's. Or the other way around. The rules are completely different. If your grounded at mom's your not at dad's. It's like they don't talk. I had to go 4 days with out deodorant because I left it at mom's and didn't have one at dad's. I can't keep up with anything. I don't have stuff that.I.need becAuse it's at the ones house. My.sister is.The.same way. Does anyone have any tips on how to Handel this. (Sorry for the grammar. I'm using a phone with a broken cracked screen and.I.can't.really see.to.type.On it')

Question: Found Condoms in my divorced parent's room?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 12:55 PM PDT

My parents went on a hike today, and when looking for a pencil in my mom's room, I found condoms and lube. They have been divorced for a year, and my dad moved back in with us a month ago. They haven't been going on dates with others, but I know for a fact that they aren't planning on getting back together. What am I supposed to feel!? I am 16 and GROSSED OUT and TRAUMATIZED

Question: My mom is always shouting/arguing/fighting?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 12:34 PM PDT

I wake up in the morning and freshen up I sit down on my laptop and she starts shouting at me saying someones doing black magic on me and my eyes have gone weird because of that. Anytime I see her, even just walking around, she's shouting. I start to do my homework and she starts shouting at me and saying things to with magic. When I'm about to go to sleep just in bed she once again starts shouting. A few times this has got quite physical. She tries to clench me but always misses. She has come running after me with a metal spoon and rod before and hitting me but every time she stops before it is just about to hit me however once she hit me on the wrist. It made no mark and I tried to play it off whilst she was there and just left it. She thinks my dad has an affair with others and how they are destroying him. So basically she thinks that a lady is pretending to love him and giving him drugs. She once decided to go accuse her whilst she was walking about and her and luckily she didn't take it heavily. Her son threatened to break the windows of our house though but she still thinks it is going on She thinks that one of my brothers also gets drugs from someone else whilst he is coming back from college and she screams about it to him all day long and never stops She thinks the neighbors take drugs as well although they do not. They live in the house my dad put up for rent Once she went to knock and tell them to get out of the house She now screams, shouts and fights day by day

Question: Ladies advice on telling my parents I'm pregnant and I'm 14?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 11:40 AM PDT

Question: Was I wrong for saying no? Shameful 10 point reward.?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 11:10 AM PDT

Okay, a little back story, brace yourselves. my family sucks. Period. My mother is an absolute *****, whenever she has a problem, she makes it everyone's else. She let's my two to under sisters do whatever under the sun and jumps on me if I breathe the wrong way. She has a job of her own that pays very well but she keeps asking me specifically for various amounts of money that usually don't exceed $20. You may think that's not too bad and I'm being cheap. Oh no, she asked this every other day. Currently I only earn minimum wage so it hurts my wallet every week when nearly $50 vanish. My sisters(especially the youngest) also are working yet they desperately need $10 nearly every other day. And guess what they use it on? Weed. I have no problem with weed, but I do have a problem with supporting this hobby in a state where it isn't legal. They too like to snap at me and call me names when I say no. Usually fat and a gay slur. Well why don't you ignore they're calls, is what you're probably asking me. I'm currently home on the couch, trying to get my life back from shambles. So no privacy what so ever plus women? Yeah it's a wonder I haven't snapped yet So this week I've had enough and put my foot down to everyone. And of course as expected, they lashed out and I was threatened with being kicked out. I'm kinda having second thoughts... Was I wrong for saying no? I welcome Evey input.

Question: Father limiting what i can do?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 11:08 AM PDT

I live in the middle of nowhere, and im a straigh a student. Most of the time, id say 90 percent of the time, its raining. Its just the burden of the location, yknow? So im 14, almost 15, in great shape, i actually ocassionally weight lift, exercise and all that. Im also a Straight A student whom hasnt gotten in trouble in his life. Im on break, and my father doesnt want me to chill on my pc, right? He wants to limit it to 2 hours a day, when im up 16 hours a day. I cant drive anywhere, I dont have TV such as dish or directtv. Its supposed to storm all week. I dont have many friends, and the ones that I do live in town, and i cant drive. I will literally have nothing to do. Any suggestions on how to deal with this?

Question: My parents force me to go to church and it's getting really bad. Please help!?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 10:56 AM PDT

So every Sunday I have to go to church because my parents say "It makes you a good person" but that's stupid and I have tried to convince my parents that church wastes your time because the priest tells you dumb stuff that i'm pretty sure no one would listen to. I have to stay there for 2 hours which is making me miss out on friends for example: My friends are watching the movie at the mall but i'm at church which ruined my chance. What would you rather do? Read the Bible for 30 minutes or go to church for 2 hours?

Question: Should I Move or Stay?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 10:45 AM PDT

im 18 and my mom tells me i still act like a child and tells me to grow up but when i do she controls me. Like I was talking to a guy she told him to get away from me or yank me away from him. She wont let me get a boyfriend or anything. Im even moving out but i cant go anywhere without her calling me telling me to come home at a specific time. Telling me where or what i can do. She still calls me baby names too.

Question: My mom thinks i’m high?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 10:10 AM PDT

So my mom basically sucks :). I'm 15 and the worst thing i've ever done was invite my girl friend over while my mom and dad weren't home. All we did was kiss and watch netflix and we didn't get caught. That's the worst thing i've done. But my mom is convinced i get high off of glue and shaving cream because i make slime. I make it because i have anxiety and it makes me feel a lot better. I try not to keep the glue in my room but sometimes i do. She took my glue gallon away which i don't really care about but she's convinced i'm still getting high off shaving cream. She also doesn't want to get me a chrome book because she's afraid of the internet. All i do is go on tumblr and instagram and watch youtube there's nothing bad happening??? Plus she can restrict me from going on porn hub if she really wanted to. Which i don't even go on. She just has 0 ******* trust in me. Please help.

Question: Was my husband being rude to my sister?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 10:02 AM PDT

I went shopping with my sister at the mall for some new clothes. After we got home and were looking through what we had bought, my sister took out her new bra and said "I want to get a mans opinion on how this looks". I thought she was just going to take it in the living room and show it to my husband. Instead she went into the living room, pulled off her blouse and her old bra and put on the new bra and asked my husband how it looked on her. He immediately got up and left the room without saying a word. Was my husband being rude to my sister for not answering her question and just leaving the room? What do you think?

Question: Can stress really be measured?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 09:57 AM PDT

I told my mother I was extremely stressed about school a while ago, and she told me that my stress is nothing compared to my dad's stress, providing for our family and working extremely hard five days a week. I am 14, and since my family is not the most well-off, I have to start looking for scholarships and participate in projects and clubs, whilst balancing my GCSE's at the same time (with piano lessons twice a week). My mother told me that I shouldn't be stressed, and that it isn't fair for me to be stressed. I told her that my stress can't be compared to my dad's. Am I correct? Can stress really be measured and compared?

Question: Is my mother is right? Or am i overeacting?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 09:38 AM PDT

So today, she got mad and yelled at me because ive eaten 10 boxes of plain oatmeal but it was MY oatmeal. Im the one that paid for it. She acts like it was hers and she eats it. Is she just miserable or am i overeacting?

Question: Today is my Birthday and my Mom is having a party with my loved ones excluded due to her bitterness. How do I get through this?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 09:10 AM PDT

My Dad, step-siblings, and step-Mom are excluded. My Mom hates them with a burning passion and uses me to get them back. I hate my Mom so much because of this. I otherwise would not hate her. So my Mom, sisters, step-Dad, grandparents, and an aunt are all coming to dinner for my birthday but I am banned for MY birthday from seeing my Dad or his family. As a result I feel ashamed and embarrassed to go to my birthday party just like I feel at Christmas every year when my Mom makes me travel cross country so I don't see my Dad. I hate my Mom because of this and this hurts so much. How do I get through it and how do I get through my birthday party tonight in which I will feel the shame of excluding half my family even though it is my Mom doing it. My Dad does not stand up for me so he is partly to blame also. I am 22 so can do what I want but am not good at standing up for myself. Also my step-Mom is not the warmest so I can't just drop by their place. My mother could so easily have asked my Dad and his family and put her pride and hate up her *** for a day. I already am dreading the pain and rejection of Christmas. How do I get through this?

Question: I don t know what to do anymore...?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 08:56 AM PDT

ever since i was about 10 (16 now), ive been getting more and more stressed and life has been getting worse... i have emotional issues which is helping to ruining my life. i cant control my emotions and my parent dont believe me and scream and scare me into stoping when it happens. when i was young, i used to feel safe at home since i was bullied at school, and my parents would help me. now it feels like the opposite. if i ever tried to solve anything with them they would ignore me or just yell at me to shut up. when i was younger i struggled in school, which made them more and more aggressive which didnt help at all back then, and it stressed me out. its stressed me out so much ive gotten a few things from it, such as tinnitus. my father is probably just stressed, but sometimes hes also pretty bad. hes said stuff like "all i care about is myself" and said i do nothing for anyone... i try my hardest but i just keep getting more and more down and feel like i can do nothing. i cant ever do anything, and when i do its just shut down. my brother acts like he hates me and so aggressive twords me, and i try and nothing happens. my mother told me (since someone at our school committed suicide) that if i was ever being bullied to tell her... but how am i supposed to tell me my own family isnt making me feel safe anymore.... i dont know if its just me being a bad kid or being just spoiled or something but i just feel so awful and everything is going wrong...

Question: My dad is so bias?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 08:47 AM PDT

My child is a 6 year old boy (Amile) and my brother has s 3 year old girl (Ani) the kids get on great but my dad totally favours Ani over Amiele, he always buys her presents and posts her all over his facebook, I had to force him to post one of Amiele so he didn't feel left out, he doesn't favour me over my brother though

Question: What can I do about my mom yelling at me?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 08:24 AM PDT

She makes excuses for it. I told her it scares me and she says "Well I'm not gonna hit ya". She says she has the right to because she is my mom and I told her she doesn't. She says a lot of people yell at their kids and I told her it doesn't make it right and she says it doesn't make it wrong either. What should I do? She is not the same mom that I used to have anymore. She yells at me everyday and my dad too. She quit smoking for 1 year and now she is back at it. I think she yells because she doesn't get to smoke that much because she will know that we will catch her. What should I do? She is not that fun to be around anymore. Like if I'm in my room and she yells at me she will tell me I'm a big baby and that I'm acting like I'm 2 and slam the door on me really hard. She yells at me for the stupidest things too. She also says sorry a lot be she is not cos she keeps doing it. The reason why she says she is sorry is cos I'm scared. But she is not sorry. She does it to me everyday.

Question: Should I stay at home to watch football with my dad or go to a concert to see one of my favorite bands?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 08:02 AM PDT

I would love to see this particular game and I don t get to spend much time with my dad, but of course at the same time this local band im obsessed with is playing a show they personally gave me tickets to. Its also the last time they will be playing for awhile. But id feel bad about having to miss the game for it cuz I don t wanna upset my dad or anything. Thoughts?

Question: Is it okay that I feel ashamed of my sister because she has mental disorders?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 07:56 AM PDT

Question: Why is my mom so negative all the time?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 07:55 AM PDT

My mom says a lot of times when I play video games with my friends and having fun, she always says to me that when she was younger there weren't any smartphones or Computers and we'd only read books and go outside all day. I just hate it when she talks about that. She is also getting mad very fast and almost every day. When I don't do the dishes, she would say that I'm lazy and don't want to do anything. She likes to curse at me because she is can't be friendly in any way. If she does something wrong like getting a question wrong, she would say things like: oh, **** off, or ******* hell. In my opinion she only has energy to hate on things/people (like me). This happened about when I was starting to become a teenager. And so it has been ever since. I really want to move out as soon as possible. At times when my mom is drunk or is going out, she acts like a whole different person. I have a better time at school than staying at home with my mom. I can't make jokes with her or else she doesn't get it or gets mad. I feel like I have one of the worst moms in the world and feel like I don't have a normal friendship with my mom because of it. And this is one of the most annoying things about her. She isn't motivated to do anything. She doesn't understand that a parent has to give the child a good example. How am I able to get motivated when one of my most closest people on earth isn't doing anything.

Question: Father won't let me get rid of old gaming desktop?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 06:26 AM PDT

We built the thing when i was in middle school. I'm in my second year of college and I'm moving out in the spring so i'm going to get a macbook or a high end gaming laptop. It's just that he straight up refuses to let me get rid of that thing. He also refuses to let me buy a new laptop. I honestly don't get it. I work full time, it's not his money that's being used and the desktop takes up too much space in the dorm anyways.

Question: Whay would you do if your 12 yr old daughter had 2 D's and 2 F's and constantly is a grouch and has an attitude problem? What should I do?

Her report card grades are as followed: 100A-physical education 75C-Pre algebra 57F-Life science 54F- History 69D- 7th grade honors english 67D- Robotics (required elective also) 85B- Computers She gives me an attitude constantly and I made her take a nap Thursday afternoon at around 2pm when she was throwing a fit because I wouldn't take her shopping. I work from home and she was on fall break Thursday, friday, and tomorrow. I am sick of her throwing fits because I won't spoil her. She wants the iPhone 8 but I refuse to get it and I told her I don't care what the cheerleaders have. She will get a job at 16 and she can pay for a phone then. She has a Samsung galaxy s6. I already pay for her braces. She complains about how mean kids at school are to her because I make her wear clothes from target and Wal-Mart. How can I get her to be a good child academic and behavior wise? I took her tv away , I took the iPad away, and now my husband is taking her door away.

Question: What kind of career should I pursue with 5 years of retail experience and an associate degree?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 06:16 AM PDT

She is fat, has emotional issues, off the wall emotional nd acts like if I ask anything from her (like listen to me), I ask too much from her, she also has a fat cellulite *** and it makes me sick watching her walk. Also, my Dad accuses me of weird stuff like being a communist when I m actually quite a conservative and then my Mom gets upset like a stupid fat person if she thinks I m being racist towards certain group of people. Should I just disown them?

Question: My mom has early onset alzheimer's. She hasn't eating meat in almost a month. She needs dentures and glasses, and help with clothing.?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 06:10 AM PDT

What am I supposed to do? My exes live nearby, one even owns the place, but won't help me. The nurse's aids and neighbors in the apartment complex won't help or volunteer to help over events that happened in high school 16 years ago. Which is just plain cruelty to my whole family. My mom needs to be able to eat meat and see, to help with our money. To be able to take care of herself. And to go to the doctors, but she is afraid and won't go. I can't even get her to leave the house. Help us? Help me?

Question: How can I get my dad to like me?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 04:40 AM PDT

I'm 17 and I don't remember my dad ever being nice to me. he ignores me whenever I do something that he likes and points out every f***ing mistake I make. I've tried so hard to be ''the perfect kid'' but nothing seems to be enough. I've heard him fight with my mom trying to get her to kick me out when I turn 18 and I'm not ready to live on my own, he takes all the money I make so I will probably end on the streets.

Question: Smoking cigarettes?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 04:26 AM PDT

My sister asked me why I started smoking when I was 16, when she talked to me about it when I was 10. I told her this... First of all 10 year olds say anything to please people. The plain fact is, I didn't stand a chance against tobacco. My dad was in the air force in the 1960s. My mom smoked, my dad smoked, you smoke, mae smokes, and now cj and Katie both smoke. And somewhere inside that hateful pea brain of yours that really in all honesty hates America, like where we are at right now... You know full f)ucking well that the place where I grew up sold me cigarettes. You know that, right? Right dipsh!t? Lol

I feel shame and embarrassment even though he is the one drunk. He is a grouchy drunk.

Question: What is it with men and their cars?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 03:35 AM PDT

I am supporting myself and my brother right now. He is difficult to get along with if you don't do things his way. A few months ago, I took the insurance off my car to save money with the understanding that I would be allowed to drive his car when needed. He welshed on that. When the insurance came up for renewal, I was going to insure my car instead but somehow he got me to insure his, again with the understanding that I would drive it sometimes, but he has welshed on that again. I realize that the good side of this is that he leaves me alone on a lot of other subjects. But what is it with men and their cars? Is this some traumatic pride thing, that he has to drive his suv to his friends' houses on Sundays to watch football, my beaten up sedan isn't good enough?

Question: My Mom won't let me go play with my cousins because she is mad their Mom criticized her. Why am I being punished for it?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 03:32 AM PDT

Will I ever be able to see my cousins again? MY Mom and her sister had a fight last Christmas and haven't spoken since. I even had to miss my cousins wedding in September because my aunt was going to be there. Why am I being punished for my aunt criticizing that my Mom got our grandparents house and not her? Why am I being punished? How do I get this through to my Mom, stop punishing me? Please advise

Question: My cousin posted on Facebook how much she sometimes hates her Dad for not coming around more. Is Facebook the wrong place for this?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 03:27 AM PDT

Her Dad is a no good pathological liar but still, it is Facebook. Is this the wrong place for this? The cousin is college age and I think in college. Her Dad is my Mom's brother though he and my Mom are estranged so I haven't seen him in about 10 years. I do see the cousin once a year as we see her mother sometimes (her parents are divorced).

Question: Why you think my mom doesn't tell at me for this and an I normal?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 02:55 AM PDT

I'm a male who is 18, 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. Now I'm getting comfortable in my stage of young adulthood. I use the main pc a lot but it belongs to my mom. Since I can't ever have posters on my wall I put this girl up as screen pic. I was so nervous I'd be yelled at for leaving this girl up all the time too. I was not though. However the excitement sored. I get a rush from this freedom. I like this girl. She is beautiful and has a cute sexy butt too. http://www.girlsinyogapants.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/lupefuentes2.jpg

Question: Can you change your Surname to Stark in a Non-US Country?

Posted: 08 Oct 2017 01:18 AM PDT

Good morning! I have a pretty crappy, yet common surname, and considering there'sno "family legacy" and whatnot, I've been thinking of changing it before leaving the ol' country (Greece). Because I don't want to pretend I'm something I'm not (ie take a cool-sounding but extremely foreign surname that'll make me look like a fool), I got to studying the few family history I have. Eventually, I found out that my ancestors from my father's side used to be Sarakatsans and my grandpa, while in the Navy, used to have "Shark" as a nickname. So being a comic fan since I was a wee lad, I thought that Stark (I got started on the Busiek run, then moved on chronologically) was a good compromise, as it's not that different from Sarak or Shark, and I can justify it somewhat. Problem is, I know it's a classic English & German surname, so i was wonderign whether it was tied with any "nobility" laws, meaning that it's off limits to folks. If anybody's Greek and knows how the whole proccess goes, I'd appreciate it. PS: I've talked about it with my folks, and considering my dad wanted to change it back when he was in Germany (born in Greece, moved to Australia, then came back, then moved to Germany, then came back again) as well, I got the A-OK.

My mother is a devout Christian. Me on the other hand, I'm kinda confused in life. I'm 16 and feel done. I kinda feel over everything. I try my hardest but do so bad and school. My mother yells at me and takes me phone. I don't have anything bad in it. I don't take or send nudes, I don't have sex. I don't smoke, drink, do drugs, or sneak out. Still, she finds something bad about me. Recently, I texted my cousin "haha wtf" not even what the f---. She freaked out. I know the logical answer would be "watch what you say" but I can't help who I am. I'm respectful and upfront. She just always assume I'm trying to be "devilish" or "immoral." I freak out when she asks for my phone and reset some apps or delete them. Again, I know you may think "if you have nothing to hide, don't delete anything." Well, my mother thinks everything is bad. I say something like "I love your outfit!" to a girl, she'll denounce me as disgusting because she thinks I like girls (lol which I do but she'll never know). I try to please her by doing my best in school in the subjects I'm good at, but she doesn't acknowledge my A+ in Honors History, she only yells at me about myoverdue paper. I don't want to make her out as this horrible, terrible person, but I'm so conflicted I don't know what to do. Thanks I guess proofreading is necessary aha. Sorry for any grammatical errors. Also, if it matters, I am 16 in the 11th grade. CO '19.

Question: I'm 18 and soon to be kicked out of mt parents house. What can I do to prepare to be homeless?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 10:48 PM PDT

I'm not a very smart person, which is the reason I'm currently failing community college. My parents told me at the start of the semester that they would kick me out of the house if I failed college. Im 18 years old, so its perfectly legal for them to do. Since my failure is inevitable, what can I do to prepare to be homeless? What should I sell that I own, and what should I buy to ensure I can survive?

Question: My fiances mother hates me what do I do?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 10:31 PM PDT

Me and my fiance have been together for a little over 3 years. We have had our ups and downs as do all relationships. We even broke up for a few months neither of us have been perfect time but as of the last year wearlier are solid. However her mother hates me! She trys to separate us. Shes always trying to invite her to family inventso and leave me out. We have tried everything. I even tried just accepting it and getting over it. But that is impossible because I want them to like me. I even took her mother and her out to dinner a month ago and she gladly accepted that only to blow up on me the following week. Right now my fiance isn't talking to her mother but I feel bad. Her mother says that she's sick and that she just wants her daughter to be there because she's got breast cancer. I understand that but my fiance doesn't what her to continue her last days out hating me and being disappointed in her decision. She not talking to her right now and I don't like that. What should I do? Should we let her out of our life or should I get over myself and let her mother come between us even more?

Question: I'm watching my parents marriage fall apart and I know why...what do I do?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 10:23 PM PDT

it's mainly my mom's fault. She thinks she's always right and always finds something to be mad at my dad about. She doesn't appreciate him as much as she should. She doesn't like physical contact. Whenever he's not at work, she makes him do a bunch of housework. He's always in a bad mood and whenever he's not my mom will ruin his good mood. He has anger issues and has accidentally hurt her a few times. Not like abuse, trust me. These were actually accidents. He does get kind of an attitude whenever he's in a bad mood and he'll talk under his breath. My mom has said that's more goes on than that but I've been watching them fight for years now and I know how it always plays out. He'll do something wrong and she'll complain about it then he'll be in a bad mood and start making comebacks under his breath and she'll hear and start yelling at him, they'll go to their room to argue louder and then he'll come out trying to get some space from her to cool off, but she won't leave him alone until she gets a genuine apology, and he'll try to keep her away and then she'll cry and that'll be it. I'm honestly tired of it. They do love each other, they just don't know how to show it anymore. I want to talk to my mom about it but everyone who tells her she's doing something wrong , well she ignores them. They've been to counseling before and left because she didn't like what they had to say. I want to tell her what she needs to do but I know she'll be mad at me and at my dad. What do I do?

Question: Is it wrong to tell a kid that he's good at something that he's not good at?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 09:30 PM PDT

My nephew is 7. He drew a stick-figure, and my family stuck the drawing on the fridge. They made a big deal out of it. When I was 7, I won a state contest for drawing. I drew myself helping my grandmother to walk. When I was 7, I was drawing comic book characters, not stick-figures. I love my nephew, and that's exactly why I think we should not lie to him. Is it wrong to tell a kid that he's good at something that he's not good at?

Question: How do I confront my mother?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 09:20 PM PDT

So I'm 18 year old female and I've never done anything wrong no drugs or alcohol, and I'm not "skinny" my body is very much grown but I can't help that that's how my body grew to be? (So a overall good kid whatever) Anyways lately my mother has been calling me a whore, slut, basically same level as prostitution but the thing is..I don't do anything? I don't dress provocative. I only wear tank tops and shorts in my home because it's a home environment and sometimes shorts outside but it's not like my *** hangs out they're normal shorts. but my mother finds every chance to sexualize and verbally abuse me by calling me these names? I always tell her I don't like it or when I tell her she is subconsciously calling me these names (even tho she knows I can see it in her face) she gets mad and threatens me. I've tried so many times to make her stop. I'm no longer ashamed of having this more adult female type body and she always finds a way to make me want to cover myself etc. She has no reasons to do this. One time I fell asleep after I got dressed from a shower and I forgot to unlock my door my mother assumed some things and well subtly called me a whore because "she's not stupid." She knows what I was doing in there. Sorry this is long. I'm upset. I don't know how to make her stop this

Question: Im depressed, my parents dont care, and frankly i dont see a future for myself and want to die.?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 08:04 PM PDT

Ive been depressed/suicidal ever since I was 12ish. im 19 now and i still live under my parents. I want to move away but i have no money. Im currently in college but im having a hard time dedicating myself to it even though I need to, for some reason it makes me extremely anxious and I freak out and do something else. Ive always been bad at expressing whats wrong. I always bottle things up, mostly because my mom, the only person i feel i can talk to, never acts like she cares. Whenever I have a problem she shrugs it off, tells me to buck it up, says im pitying myself, or turns the conversation so that in the end I feel bad for her. Basically theres no reason ever that I should have a real problem. Recently something happened with my parents and I vented. My mom comes to check on me, yknow, acting all calm and peaceful like any parent would after having fun. I tell her, and I made sure not to freak out and remain calm because I know better than to heat anything up. She then completely switches and gets angry at me, gets angry at the fact that im angry, and brings up everything i suck and basically says 'what the hell do you do? what right do you have? whatever.' all the while giving me a ******* stink eye. She then vents with the family. She soon comes back saying that everyone is going out for dinner, and gave me the option to come to not. Yknow, cuz she does this thing where she acts like it never happened. I just want to die at this point, im trapped here.

Question: Is this good?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 07:42 PM PDT

Hi I am 16, a guy. lately, I ve been stressed out and I ve been talking to my cousin who is 19 about it and it really helps me not to be stressed. my cousin told me I can talk to her about anything I want to. is it good to have someone I can talk to? I feel really close to my cousin and I told her that. is this good? I would talk to my parents but I would want to talk to someone who I feel close to. I asked Claire if I can talk to her about anything I want to, and she said I can talk to her about anything whenever I want to.

Question: What would you do in my situation?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 07:21 PM PDT

I'm a 23 year old college student that has about 4-5 years of college left. I'm an engineer major but im having a hard time getting a good job. i just cant survive with just a hundred dollars a week. .and my mother expects too much of me. she puts me under so much pressure. and i know that she doesn't value my college education. when i was 18 i asked her if i can work on finding my own place to live after highschool and she got pissed off with me being against with the idea of me leaving her and made me like an enemy or something and now that im 23 she wants me to find my own place when i could of done that a long time ago but she is very controlling and manipulative of my life. there are times she says i should just drop out of college because I'm not making any money to help pay her bills and complains about all my jobs when all i can really find is retail. that's why im in college in the first place but she doesn't get it. i don't want to live with her. ive come to the point of hating her. she causes me too much pain. i want to live by myself but i dont make enough money. i don't want to live with her for another four years or more. but i dont know if i should stop college for a bit to find a job i can work full time and save up for an apartment or just deal with her for the next few years being broke and get my degree. .i just dont want to live with her anymore. she causes me too much suicidal thoughts..

Question: HELP my dad went out with his friend and they were supposed to be back last night and I don't know where they at?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 05:20 PM PDT

They went to the bar and neither of them are answering their phones and I need them to come home cuz I need help with my brother. I called up all the bars in town and nobody's seen 'em. I even called the motels, because last time this happened I found them at one, but they ain't over there either. I know they didn't just abandon us because my dad would have taken his Dodge instead of his friend's sh!tty conversion van, but now I'm wondering if they left town to take an impromptu vacation or something. What the hell do I do?

Question: Is it ok for me to let my 10 year old sister call me 'mom' or 'mommy'?

Posted: 07 Oct 2017 05:19 PM PDT

We don't have parents, and she started calling me 'mom' or 'mommy' last year, but since I'm only 18 we get really weird looks when she does it in public. Should I tell her not to call me that? And if so, how do I do it? Or do you think she'll stop calling me that when she gets older? She's really cute so I don't want her to be sad or feel sorry or something
