My dad & my brother (who was 15 at the time) died in a car wreck a little over a year ago! I am surrounded by my mom, 2 sisters & 2 aunts! I don't feel comfortable going to my mom, sisters, or aunts for advice or asking them certain questions that I have.Can anyone tell me where I can turn to? Or possibly even help me with some questions? Thanks, Connor

My mother and I live seperately I came to visit because i was dropping off money for her that she asked from me and then i stayed a little longer just to rest up a little, but soon after she came to me yelling at me but not telling me what to do, "So you're just going to lay here and not do anything?" She said , Well first i dont know what to do maybe if you'd say "Hey can you do A & B" i'd definitely help but i can't read minds i dont really live here to know what you need help with. So am I in the wrong or is she.

It hurts to hear this but is she right? I am not allowed to see him ever again until he stops drinking my Mom says. It has been 2 years since I saw him as that was when my Mom left him.

She is not a good person but has not been violent since age 14.

I went to College of Mount St, Joseph in Cincinnati and graduated but was not accepted into Harvard where my brother, father, both grandfathers, and great-grandfathers all attended. I had learning disabilities and knew I would not get into Harvard but applied to please my father. Also applied to Yale for him and also turned down. He says I am a disappointment to the family and that his father would have been ashamed of who I became (his father died when I was eleven). My Mom didn't mind and understood I am learning disabled and her parents understand. Yet, my father and brother ignore me now and do not welcome me to family events. I spent the holidays alone this year as my father said it would be too many people to have me come. My Mom and her parents have died so I am alone now. My Mom died last November. My brother also ignores me. How do I get my Dad to have me in the family again. I have apologized but he says I'd still fail to get in and he is right but it is not my fault. He repeatedly says I brought embarrassment into the family and cannot be trusted. My brother does not want his children around me. I am 31 and a guy but live alone and have no family. My Mom was an only child so there is no extended family on her side and my Dad has poisoned his family against me. I have no friends cause I am different socially so don't trust myself with friends cause in school no one wanted to be around me cause I talked too much and said things off subject. I am ADHD and still do that some. aerie, None of the issues involve religion.

Are there people today who have basically gone a lifetime without talking to their mom or dad?

I m 15. I m fairly sure my mother has depression. I looked up symptoms of it with women her age and she ticks all the boxes: extreme weightloss (she barely eats and I heard her vomiting when she thought I d left the other day), irritability, fatigue ( she practically never sleeps), headaches, stomach aches, not washing properly, and she keeps coming up to me, hugging me and telling me she loves me. That s what freaks me out. Everytime she does it I worry why. But she also gets very irritable. We ll be having dinner and everything will be fine (she doesn t say anything) and suddenly she ll get pissed off that everyone s being too loud. One second everything s fine and the next she s freaking out. Every meal is a timing time bomb. I no longer eat with my family (neither does my sibling) because I don t want to deal with it. Even at Christmas she didn t get us anything; she always gets us stuff and this year she didnt and we just got stuff from our dad. (They re still married but haven t slept in the same bed for like 4 years) I don t know how to deal with it. As much as I hate to say it, it s really making me hate her. She s so horrible to be around. I tried talking to my dad , I said "is mum okay?" When it was just us to and he quickly changed the subject. Same with my sister. I just don t know how to deal with it and I really want her to just move out so I don t have to be around her. As I m writing this I can hear her just shouting into thin air.

I'm 18 and the second I mess up badly I'm getting kicked out, so my little brother is taking advantage of that knowing well that he's mom's favorite and she would do almost everything for him. He doesn't even let me sleep good, he doesn't let me sit myself and relax on the phone and just doesn't give me life in general, so what can I do?

I'm 15 and a sophomore in high school but the trip is in April 2019 so I will be 16 then. I'm responsible, A+ student, and I will pay for the trip but my dad is extremely protective and doesn't want me to go. He is afraid of anything that could possibly go wrong like terrorist attacks, or me getting sick. I Really want to go on this trip, my friends are going and Greece and Italy are the two places I've always wanted to visit. I have to sign up within 2 months and I need him to let me go. Any tips?? This trip would mean everything to me

i don't know wha to do my sister attacked me, i'm 17 years old and i needed to go to the hospital but they wouldn't take me because they were afraid my sister would get in trouble because she attacked me while high.

It has always been like this. Anytime I'm having a good day and I'm accomplishing things that I want to do or people compliment my smile or tell me I look pretty, she always shoots it down. For example, I recently lost 15 pounds and I'm at a really good weight for my height, She had the need to tell me that I'm not good enough unless my waist is at least 10 inches less than my hips and that's " the only way to be". I'm not exaggerating. Or when anyone says something nice about me, she'll tell me you're pretty but you're not a REAL beauty. I was the real beauty when I was your age. You can't be a real beauty unless you have x, y, z. I feel good about myself whenever I'm away from her but anytime I'm around her, she's so hard on me and so superficial. What can be done about this? Anytime I try to better myself, she's always there to tell me that I'm not as good as she used to be 30 Years ago when she was 20.

So I met this guy at a party. We weredrunk and we started making out. My sister saw us but didnt confront me until the next morning. Apparently that was her boyfriend that I had no clue about since she moved out last year. My parents got mad at me and are disappointed and currently wont talk to me, how was I supposed to know? My sister called me a wh*re and told me to go fck myself. I am so sad, what do I do?

grandkids are complaining about my son's gf mistreating them. The mother and my son are doing whatever she says.Because the kids need discipline and she is really into discipline.They are letting her take care of the grandkids full time even though she has been arrested for abusing elderly people she was supposed to be taking care of. She lost custody of her older kids. Whenever I visit them she screams and yells and calls them stupid and tells them they are failing school even though they aren't.She keep threatening to beat them half to death and make them eat tidepods if they keep snitching on her and she will be making them repeat grades and take antiphychotics to help them.I have told her to stop, then she says she is just kidding and I can't take a joke. She frequently denies access to the kids, so if I call cps won't that make me a disgruntled grandparent? I can't talk to my son about it because no one in the family can talk to him. My one grandson kind of fibs a lot. She says that we are toxic for my son. My son seems afraid of her.She insulted him and kept treating him like a kid until my 97 year aunt told her to shut the hell up. not a troll post. This chick is a ******* troll. I should tape how she acts. It is unbelievable. Apparantly, she made her older kids eat detergent and they had to get their stomachs pumped. I just wanna make sure I am not overeacting.What if they find nothing? And she punishes the kids for 'telling'? I try and talk to my son, but she has decided he is not allowed to talk to us now. should I get evidence of the abuse?

I dont know what I hope to accomplish through this. I cant expect good advice from the internet. I cant see a reason to believe in anything anymore. The bastard I refuse to allott the respectful title of "Father" yells at and occasionally beats my dear mother. When me and my siblings tried to interfere, he attempted to strangle my sister. Then he said he would disown us and put it in the papers too. My mother had us apologise to him for our behavior, in an experience I found somewhat humiliating and ******* infuriating. He sat quietly, nodding along, and had us leave the room. He ignored us for 2 weeks. He didn't even look at me when we shook hands every morning. I want to ******* kill him. Finally, he gave his response. He said that he had never heard of a family where children hit their father. He said he was embarrassed by us and went on about how he was the victim. How my siblings and mother managed to cheer him up, I know not how as I had left the room shortly after his words. He is considerably more cheerful to us than before which only serves to further piss me off because he's the exact same abusive **** he's always been. Once a week, in the dead of the night, he locks his room's door and yells at my helpless mother. Sometimes, we see her the next morning with a black eye.

I'm 15 and I've been thinking about running away for a while now and I'm thinking about taking my mom car tonight while my parents are sleeping and runaway I hate my parents they mean and annoying. What will happen if I take her car?

Hi! I have a bad father. I'm always seen, and not heard, and I'm sad. Please read this all, thank you! So 2 years ago, my mother passed away, and I am not the slightest bit over it yet. My father, however, didn't mourn or care. He's an extremely insensitive person. He seems disappointed that he has to take care of me full time now, and has threatened to give me up multiple times, but never has. I feel seen, but never heard, he leaves me home alone a lot, but he has hidden cameras in the house, to watch my every move. He says it's to make sure I don't do anything, but I doubt that. He reads my texts after I fall sleep at night, so I literally sleep with my phone in my hand. My needs and feelings are never validated. Whenever I say I'm upset, his response: "get over it. " He does what he thinks should happen to me, not what I think is gets for myself. He's controlling. If I make one mistake, he'll never forget. But when he makes that same mistake, it doesn't matter. He thinks, (and has even said it himself) "Today's generation of kids is fked up, because parents don't do anything right! They treat their kids like babies, when they're not babies anymore! They HAVE to scare them to get them to listen. Otherwise, they grow up to be psssies and failures." When I get bad grades, I'm yelled at. "If you fail this, you'll be the only person in this family to fail at anything!" The first anniversary of my mother's death, (the second is coming up in a few months) I was crying so loud Have to update, ran out of characters! Anyway, he hit me, and yelled at me, saying "GET OVER IT! STOP BEING SUCH A SENSTIVE PERSON!!" Like, EXCUSE ME?! I'm thinking about my dead my mother you never cared about, and you expect me to not cry?! SERIOSULY?! He will hit me and push me to the ground if I make him too mad. Like I said, my needs are never met. I can never discuss my feelings, because I know his response. How I am? I'm honestly not fine, or happy. I'm dead on the inside. If I tell him? Charcetrers ran out, next update: He'll just be like, "oh, it's life, shut up, don't be a baby." He laughs when people die. He doesn't care either. One time in the news, it said a man had committed suicide. Jumped off a bridge. He got super mad, because it was closed and he had to take it to work. He was like "Great, kill yourself when I have to go to work, why don't ya?!" And was pissed off. I need to be heard. I'm still grieving, and insecure. I was happier without him. When I was little, my mother took me away from him, with her. Now that she's gone, I'm forced to be here, Sorry, this is long I know. I'm. Just trying to make sense here. I'm fourteen. And it's not just him, I'm never heard by anyone. So, how do I deal with this until I move out?

IM FRIGGEN TOO OLD TO BE CALLED THAT. Do you agree??? Well I was with a four friends and my mom asked me to go upstairs but I said no Bc I was thet first and my weird brothers who's visiting said I was acting like a brat. Then I started yelling thst I'm too old to be called that and he said I was throwing a temper tantrum but it's fricken ridiculous. I hate him. And he's so annoying and embarrassing that he said that in front of MY FRIGGEN FRIENDS

I see so many people who live in houses and have cars but can barely afford to go out to eat or even pay a cover to go to a nightclub or see a band. Wouldn't it make more sense to live a little more frugal and choose a house which had a lower payment each month along with a different car so you could enjoy more things in life? How much sense does it make to live poor even though you have a nice house and car?

I love my fiances family. I really do. But his sister is completely dependant on those around her. Think 15 year old teenager with no concept of the real world. She's 24, refuses to get a lisence, doesn't even try to save money for a car, works a very easy full time job that she complains about constantly, the only bills she pays are her phone bill and Netflix, and she lives with their mother, again, not even paying rent. Spends all of her money on energy drinks, fast food, and beer and now she's dabbling in pills(Lovely, right?). I'm worried that if her mother decides to sell her house and move in with her boyfriend that his sister might try moving in with us which is literally the last thing I want because I work very hard for what we have, and am trying to save for a house with multiple bedrooms because we want kids in the future. I'm worried that she will manage weasel her way into our home and never leave in the future. I love her, but I do not want to end up with her in my home for the rest of my life, which will certainly happen if if there is an agreed upon some frame. My fiance loves his sister but very much enables her life choices in certain ways. How do I make sure this never happens without upsetting him?

i am lonely and pathetic loser and my family dont care about me , infact they are disgusted of me ..i am a burden in every way i hear them laugh everyday while doing family activites or spending time together and when i join them the laughs dies now i am always alone and when ever try to talk i get laughed at or publicly humiliated i start to wonder why i still think that my death may cause a pain to anyone when i am holding the knife over my vains ? here i am crying my eyes out and everyone passing beside me , looking and keep going and I actually started to feel they are right to not care for me ..everyone have his own life and problems and i am a pathetic mess that every one steps on infact my own father told me before that he loves my little sister and my mother loves my elder sister and i have no one to love me i used to ignore such talk , but it hurts and now i actually feels maybe its something that i should have not ignored i told them today that i am tired and i need some one to listen to me and my mother answer was( actually no , you dont have to be listened too ..we all have our shares of life problems , when you have a real problem then i listen ) apparently being severely depressed is my own problem before writing your answers (if i got any) i just want to say last thing if you are going to make fun of me or something like that ..please know that your words can kill , literally

Even if there's abuse, it might be considered the "norm" for them and they love their parents. If the child isn't willing to go to foster care, will they be taken forcibly?

She is so short and nasty with us for no reason. There isn't a day that goes by without her yelling at my dad. Even little things set her off. She's also been attempting to isolate me from my friends and boyfriend. I have a hang out day once every other Saturday to wind down with my friends. Because I'm a full-timer in college and working towards my nursing degree. Last Saturday she yelled at me and changed her mind to let me go. Then later told me that she left something at home,so I had to drive all the way to her job to bring it to her. When I got there she took her sweet time even after the lady at the front desk paged her. When she finally came out she asked me for 20 dollars for gas. Then had the nerve to turn to my dad and say "pay her back". She then changed her mind and let me go to the party after I gave her money. I'm forced to stay here because I'm at my transferred college and full time. I don't know what to do, shes controlling and abusive. Even dictates whatever my father is allowed to do. Edit: Just heard her crying in the shower? @linkus86 I never said what I do around the house or what I do to 'help out'. She's also obsessed with me finishing my degree so it's hardly self-centered at all. She has a good paying job and constantly asks me and my father for money. She never buys groceries and always gets help on bills. There is no room to re-evaluate on anything. He wants to leave too, but he told me he refuses to leave me with her.

I suspect she doesn't because when I was a small child, she told me that I'd know how babies were made when I'm in college. When I was 10 or 11,my teacher told her that I showed interest in sex by saying something age-inappropriate (unintentionally). My mom refused to believe it and said that one of my older friends must've told me to say something that I didn't understand. I just told her that my friends mentioned it and that was the end. She never had any talks with me, although the school teaches kids about sex anyways. I was just told that I got my period because I was growing up the very day I had it. I was also told not to date until I'm older, and that's about it.

My son has an anger issue, and put his hands on her in an argument around Christmas time. He has sought counseling for his issue, and currently waiting to get medication from the doctor he saw. My daughter in law has not let my son see his son since Christmas. She has blocked me from facebook. My son has asked me to not get involved. I did not tell my son she blocked me on facebook. Don't want to get him upset. What do I do? My son is doing what he needs to do, but she fails to see her part in it. She can be very vengeful, manipulative, and immature.

I'm 15 &' I wanna run away from home, my parents don't let me go no where I'm the only child so I don't talk to nobody at home so it took me awhile to make a lot of good friends and they parents let them go to the movies spend nights together and all type of stuff my parents WONT even let me go outside and I really wanna runaway from home, I hate my parents and, when I get grown they will NOT have any part in my life, and they mean, stupid, and annoying. I haven't talked to them in weeks and we live together!

I argued with my 20 year old sister. I have tempremental issues so I got so mad that I choked her. Shes on the floor and Im scared to call 911, I dont want to go to jail. I believe shes still alive but yeah idk what to do, mom is out of town She woke up like 15 minutes after I posted this, I spilled ice cold water on her. I am grounded for a month now.

I am 14 and my mom left my dad for a woman. This made me devastated and I cried every night. This woman that shes with is such a ***** and shes also obese. I dont understand what she sees in her. I'd move to my dads but unfortunately he moved to Russia. What do I do?

I came home from college for the holidays and now I go back this weekend. Yesterday my Step Mom came down stairs while I was doing laundry, she said I was doing the clothes wrong, I was mixing colors,etc. then she said here, try this, took off her pants and handed me her panties and said, where does this go? I said in the whites? she said no, it goes over your head while I suck you off. yikes !

So this is what happened. I have been suspecting something was wrong with my dad. After a certain date he starting acting shady and sneaky. In 2016 I suspected something was going on. I found love messages from his mistress. I told my mom, she got into a heated argument with my dad, dad denied everything and somehow everything went back to normal. Fast forward to mid 2017. He was still acting shady so I confronted him with the situation and he still denied. He assured me that nothing was going on and had me trust him again. My mom decided not to go into detail too much as her priority was to pay the bills so we had a roof over our heads. I always had an instinct something was still going on. I found out he was still texting the mistress. I told my mom again, she is suspicious but was unfazed soon after and told me not to think too much. Fast forward to Present day. I was still not at ease. I was left flabbergasted and shocked after I found out he got his mistress pregnant and they had a abortion back in 2016. I was furious and lost. I told my mom, she just kept her cool and confronted my dad. As usual even with evidence in black and white, my dad denied. I am so worried for my mum, I would be fine if she divorced him but the thing is that I don't know will she. If you were my mum, what would you do?

For example when my grandfather died she said it was probably the stress of having me over for a week (he had a heart attack). When she got divorced she said "one of the problems was we had you, before that things were fine when it was just us and Michelle (my sister)". She even once said "probably something you did" when a classmate of my sister's who I had met committed suicide. Sometimes she might not really believe it but I do. How do I convince her these things are not my fault (I am 16).

My mom took my phone away bc i was lying to her about stuff, which was a mistake but she said i cant have a phone till im 18! And right now im almost turning 13 i cant wait that longg...! She always says "end of discussion your not getting your phone back" . I end up begging her bc i want it back so bad, i even gave her a letter why i should have my phone back but all she said was "i read your letter" nothing else! I got my phone taken away on december 18th and now its january 15th. I really want my phone back🙁 ive said sorry more than a thousand times nothing works... She said all i care about is my phone and she said that ill just be on my phone all day and that my phone is bad because it creates drama PLEASE HELP ME!! I rlly want my phone back ASAP

Basically, I've been staying up late (absolute latest being 1 in the morning) talking with friends in a group chat from school. We're theatre kids, so we mainly talk about school and musicals we're into, nothing inappropriate. We also send a lot of memes to each other, but again, nothing inappropriate. I only stay up late when I know I don't have school the next day. However, my parents don't trust me, and assumed that I must be talking about bad stuff. Yesterday, my dad came into my room and took my phone to look through the conversation. Later, he asked me to come to his room. He made me delete the app I was using to message my friends (Amino), and made me delete all my contacts. Why, you may ask? Because I used swear words and sent "inappropriate cartoons" (memes). Keep in mind, I only swear in text conversation, very sparingly. I tried to explain that everyone uses those words (I've heard my dad swear multiple times), but he told me that "everyone" doesn't include me. What does that even mean? When asked about the memes, I tried to explain that it was just supposed to funny, and that he just didn't understand it. He kept on cutting me off, not letting me explain. He proceeded to yell at me some more, still not letting me speak. In the end, he kept the phone, saying I could only use it for emergencies and I went to my room and cried at how unfair I thought the situation was. Do you agree with me? Was this unfair, or am I taking this way too seriously? FYI - I can not stress enough that none of the memes were inappropriate. None of them contain swears or sexual matter of any kind. Also, in case you were wondering, I'm a 15 year old guy and the group chat was a mix of girls and guys around the same age. I am a straight-A honors and AP student

Ok so this happened about 14 years ago, i was 6 years old at the time. I can remember that day like it was yesterday. It was such a painful day I remember holding onto my brothers legs crying and begging him not to leave. But he was just so frustrated with my dad he put up so many years with him that he had to leave, he says. He was about 18 at the time. Anyways, today everything is all good he has a family. He's OK with my dad now. But every now and then throughout these 14 years I can vividly remember that moment when I held my brothers legs and begged him to not leave the house because he was my older brother and I loved him. Now that's not a memory that gets me depressed or anything but I constantly remember it every now and then. So i guess there's a deeper meaning to it. Is this normal? Because, looking back I don't really have much memories of my six-year-old self so this being one of my main memories of those times really bothers me.

Its unfair. Why is he such a hypocrite? He always comes home reaking of weed, he always tries to cover it up with body stray and its so obvious. My mom says he was a super pothead when they met in high school. Well, he obviously still is. He's an idiot that laughs at everything. How does he even have a good job? He even says I'm not allowed to date, and Im 16! All my brothers dated when they were even younger than me, and he gave them all hive-5s, and super proud and praising them for getting girls. But since I'm a woman, he doesn't want me to date, and gets all butthurt when I bring up boys. Why is he such a hypocrite? How do I get him to stop?

Do you think it would be appropriate and cute to buy matching bikinis like this so I could wear with my daughter who is around her age? https://i.pinimg.com/474x/f2/7a/10/f27a10e07facc2b8d391c5885836b33d--nerd-girls-mini-me.jpg

So I'm 17, I have a twin brother that's the same age as me and an older brother who's in his 20's. I only have my mom as a parent because my dad died a long time ago. After a few months have passed, my mom was qualified for a widow benefit. However, I feel like this is kind of cheating since we aren't working for the money but instead going the easy route. This might sound like an excuse but in the small town I live in, there's barely any jobs around here. And my twin brother and I applied to many stores but we haven't been accepted yet. My older brother on the other hand has been working normally and providing for us as well. Anyways, I still feel like this is wrong but at the same time that I also feel like we're using it responsibly. When I say responsibly, I mean that we don't buy stupid **** like iPhone accessories (I use a good prepaid Samsung touchscreen) or diamond necklaces, etc. We do sometimes buy clothes but nothing too fashionably expensive. So I'm basically asking is I'm using Social Security right and if it's wrong that I'm using it. And we don't buy over-excessive food, sometimes we buy junk food (and fast food) but mostly basic necessities like cereal, milk, coffee, bread, etc. And when I mean by abusing, I mean buying stupid unnecessary **** like Jordan's Shoes and gold necklaces Here's what happened to my dad for those who think I'm probaly lying: https://www.waukonstandard.com/content/postville-man-elias-de-haro-missing-june-3

This uncle visited me 1 summer when I was 5. He changed my life. I dont remember what he looks like, I only remember his ring; it's a very special ring. My father didn't know what I was talking about. I visited a pawn shop recently and found a ring exactly like his. So I bought it. How do I find out more?

Im installing a line output converter in my factory radio but im not sure which wires to tap into how do i tell? Its a 2015 scion tc manual if that helps and no it doesnt have factory rca connectors. So how do i find the right wires? Thanks

If you put them together with 15 year olds and people in their 30's, they'll usually have more in common with teenagers. Although they're mature enough to not start petty rumors like young teens might do - their mindset is still closer to a teenager's than a fully grown adult. Even the mature young adults still have some of these traits. You can just feel that there's something not fully grown in them.

My grandma is in her mid 90s and can no longer stay home alone anymore. She did up until she fell a couple of times. My mom and her brother don't want to put her in a nursing home because it's too expensive. So my mom, her brother and sister take turns staying with her for a week at a time. I try to be understanding but I feel that at this age especially, I need my mom home with me. My dad is here which I'm thankful for, but I would like my mom here too. If she cared more about me and herself I feel that she would put my grandma in a nursing home. She's basically giving away her life too because she doesn't work anymore because of this. Is it selfish to want her home? It's my second to last year in high school and I don't want to spend them barely seeing her.

My parents are never happy for me unless it deals with good grades and getting a job. I went to see my boyfriend who's been overseas for 9 months, in italy as a vacation, and my parents were not happy for me. Everyone in my family and his family were so excited and couldn't stop asking questions but my parents didn't ask any questions, didn't ask to see any pictures. My parents use guilt over me any time they are angry, which is often. They hold the fact that I'm in college and pay for my tuition and that I don't have a job because I didn't have time my first semester because of classes. The guilt always starts with the things they've bought me and how they give up stuff all the time which they don't give up dramatic stuff. They've always told me that I'm a brat, I'm selfish, I'm an awful child, I'm a slut. I'm clinically diagnosed with anxiety, depression, and ADD. Someone please help.

My brother has pushed me to my limit brother he keeps asking me questions like when is his birthday(when he know his birthday) ,am I his cousin ,and when is he getting his "money" idk what money he's talking about .i told him get help because he sounds crazy and he's Been in a psychiatric ward about 3 times .at this point he seems to be doing it to annoy me and drive me crazy cause he laughs when I say I don't know or answer him he does it everyday and my question is what do I do I've tried ignoring him yeliing at him to leave me alone idk what else to do at this point

Ok, I know the title sounds a little ridiculous -- and maybe it is, but right now, I'm absolutely confused. Just to break it all down, I'm 24 years old and disabled. I was born with a rare birth defect which has caused me to have severe breathing problems as well as epilepsy. I often have seizures, and cannot walk for more than a few minutes at a time, so I never really leave the house. That said, I've lived a very sheltered life with my mother, and beyond what we do on a daily basis, I have very few social connections. Anyway.. to get to the point: the other night I was in my room playing "My Little Pony" on Xbox 360 when I heard a loud thud from my mother's bedroom. Instantly I was worried, and after a moment of silence, I decided to rush down and open her door to see if she was okay. At first, I didn't see her, but when I called out, she stood up from behind her bed wearing only a bra from what I could tell. The look on her face was that of horror, which confused me, so I asked what had happened. She told me that she fell, and basically begged me to stay away. This seemed a bit odd and made no sense, so I took a few steps into the room and made my way toward her. This was when it got really weird. As a approached the bottom of her bed, making my way around to the other side where she was, she began to scream at me -- telling me to get out. Thinking she was just embarrassed from what had happened, I continued my way to her, worried that she was hurt. Well.. to say the least, that's when I became horrified myself.. Once I got to her and knelt down to help her up, I noticed that she had no pants or underwear on. To top it off, I saw that between her legs.. something was hanging -- dangling, and honest to god, it looked like a rather large penis. Naturally I flinched away.. as did she.. and for a moment we were silent. I abruptly got up.. took one more glance down.. I just had to, and to my terror, it was definitely a penis -- an erect one with rather plump testicles at that. Sickened, I quickly rushed out of the room and closed the door behind me. Since that day, about a week ago, we've not said a word to each other. Every once in awhile we'll run into each other in the house, but we always pass by quickly and basically ignore each other's existence. So that brings me to the question here. Is this at all normal? Can anyone explain to me, how or why my mom would have a penis? I've had no contact with my father since I was born -- apparently he wasn't happy with my health problems, but I really want to know what's going on here. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Is it normal for a mother to have a penis? How can this be? I know I'm grasping at straws here.. but I want to understand..

I'm the youngest at 35 with no children. My sisters kids our my kids. We lost my 20 nephew to an heroin overdose in 2014. She uses his death to hurt us as if we was part of his fate when we did everything to save him. My mother had a very physical and emotional abusive mother and now that dad has passed she's showing her true colors. Should we cut her off or should we have compassion for her for being abused child herself?

I asked them if they wanted to go the casino with me for my 21st and instead they said they were financially strapped down but let me tell you they have money....they just handed out my 29 yr old brother 160,000 for him to do whatever with. I feel hurt. I feel as if since I moved out 2 years ago, they want nothing to do with me.

I feel like college is a scam. For example I have two older sister's, one who is 21 and went to college for 2 years, and one who is 19 and decided not to go. Here are the different life styles they have; my 21 year old sister works usually 12 hours a day 5 days a week, she could barley afford rent for her apartment.She owe's forty five thousand in student loans, my parents always have to give her money for food, her Debt is only gonna get higher. My 19 year old sister moved to Hawaii at age 18 with almost 4 grand she saved up, works night shifts at a 7-eleven in Honolulu. she love it there.Supports ALOT of people (she has a lot of friends she helps out that live with her) she make all her food by scratch, last time we visit her she had 12 grand saved up that she doesn't know what to do with (she wanted to donate it). She has a good spirit and is totally in love with life.and loves Hawaii she also loves working night at the 7-eleven and is completely Debt free. So is college worth it? My parents really pressure me into going, I'm afraid I will get disowned just like my sister if I don't.

This morning, I heard the noise: "dee dee dah dah dee dee" I thought it was just some water dripping from the sink or someone in the bathroom, but then it got louder and louder. It turns it was my dad singing his weird song. I told him to stop, but he won't stop. He then said, "gah gah gay gay." When he was in the bathroom, he said, "poo poo poo."

My uncle gossips when he is drunk (he's an alcoholic). At Christmas he repeated the name to me when we were all at my grandmother's as my Mom was away with my sister's family so she wasn't there. I long knew my Mom had an ex-husband she never wished to discuss and he had left her after she had a stillborn baby. Nothing further is known about the ex. Well now I know all about the guy and his name. I even looked his name up on Google Images and saw his face. I did not dig deeper. I cannot say the name around my Mom or she will try to keep me from spending Christmas and other events with her family anymore (I am 24). So how do I stop thinking this name as he has the same 1st name as someone in the family so I worry I will now get the two last names mixed up as this guy had an odd last name (don't want to write it on here). My mother is the type who hides secrets so very little has ever been shared about this mystery and I only learned she had been divorced when I was doing ancestry on ancestry.com and saw her marriage certificate from Ohio and it said 2nd marriage. She did not have any surviving kids from the first husband.

I feel scared when she does this. I am a 27 year old woman.

The family doesn't like my Mom and for good reason. I am scared that I won't be asked or will be overlooked cause of her. What do I do? Family is important to me but I can't just show up uninvited.

We have been together 6 years..have a 4 year old son and have been living in his grandmother s home for three years. His grandmother passed and away and the house was given to his father who let us stay as long as we pay the real estate taxes. There is no mortgage on this home. We wanted a trampoline and his father said no, we wanted to take off the awning his father said no..now we want a golden retriever his father said no. I am a 36 year old ultrasound tech in a hospital and make a good income my fiance is a teacher. We do pretty well. We wanted to discuss purchasing the home from his father so we can be rid of these restrictions and own our home but his father said before we can do that he wants to talk to his son in private about confidential stuff. I think this is obsurd and am ready to flee as I feel threatened and betrayed if he has this conversation behind my back and that we ate a team creating our life together there should be nothing that can t be said in front of both of us. This is causing major problems. My boyfriend tried telling his father we will have the discussion together and his father says it s confidential and nothing to do with me. What are your thoughts and opinions should o be ok with this? I want to leave this family and situation because of this.

Don't know anything about laws, live in Texas.. I'll try to keep it short. She left dad when me and sis were babies and took us. Sued dad for everything he had and he had to move back in with parents for prob 10 years now..? (Not best jobs either..) First main thing, when I was 17 mom said I could drive me and sis to dads house on weekends so my dad could save gas.. Then one time texted her we'd be a little late, and dad called me mad, saying I better make it home on time or he could go to jail bc mom told courts he was bringing us home late when I WAS DRIVING... Another thing, i got wisdom teeth out and mom complained about price so I paid $2,000. Insurance said they'd refund and never did, I didnt care but mom wouldnt shut up about it, so about 1-2 years later mom forged a check to get the $2,000. That MIGHT incriminate me since it was put into my bank account though....? Another thing, she's been lying to insurance, I only found recently, she never told them she had a teenage driver, since I was 15. NOW Im on insurance bc I went to buy own car, Im 19 but I wasnt on there for 4 years. (Luckily I was good driver..) That's everything that comes to mind for now, mom is a cheap *** and doesnt care about anyone just wants her money. Always sued dad for more money, but took us to gma every night while she spent the money at bars and parties, even complained about spending $5 on a kids meal for me and sis so we always shared one kids meal, if we were still hungry too bad...

So I'm 20 years old now but my birth certificate has been a issue now since my biological dad is going through immigration issues. When I turn 21 I'm planning on helping my dad out but the problem is that my dad is not on my birth certificate named as my dad but apparently he's on my brothers certificate . All I know is that he wasn't at the hospital when I was born cause I was basically planned on coming a week later from my birth day so I was born early due to my moms health issues so basically I was wondering if I could add my dad onto my birth certificate after the many years that have passed by. To be honest I was born in New York but currently live in Georgia and my dad still lives in New York so how can I work out this issue?
