My dad got angry with me over opening a pack of biscuits as there was other open. He slapped my face in anger and im 19. He apologised and is scared of my mum finding out as she doesnt tolerate any abuse. He told me not to tell her. I said ok. Shes the only one that would care about this. Im still upset and just feel sad just feel alone as my own siblings dont understand how upset i am they think i am overreacting, they are telling my mum im upset "because of exams". I dont know what to do? I really want to tell her why im upset as it wasnt a small thing. But my dad will be upset with me if i tell and so will my siblings. Now im crying by myself Am i overeacting

I live with my mother due to finishing my studies, which then led to my boyfriend moving in because of unfortunate matters, so long as he paid rent and what not. Well, now my Niece who is newly 16 years of age and recently birthed a child has now moved in. Here s the issue: My mother is allowing her to do things that some would probably frown upon at her age - I won t name all of it, but one of those things is allowing men to sleep in her room with the door completely closed. Despite not being in a position to do so, my boyfriend is threatening to go into her room and escort the men out and probably berate her. I know already that this is going to lead to my mother kicking him out and a lot of other drama - which she has every reason to, but that means an inevitable termination of my relationship being that he would move back home 10 hours away and I would have to abandon a lot to go with him. I m just wondering if any of you have solid advice and what I should?

Okay so I m 20 I just moved to florida with my mom and step dad she was suppose to divorce him blah blah blah she didn t have the guts anyway in the last year I started talking to my real dad who I haven t seen since I was six because my mom kept me from him because he likes to drink and have fun like me but he is a pipefitter out in Texas and is loaded with money he wants me to go out there with him and he has me a job making 18 an hour plus over time and I don t have a job atm so it sounds great but what do I tell my mother do I just leave delete social media start new life I mean seriously I m full of anxiety as it is don t know what to do any help would be appreciated

Last year, my sister was 15. My parents didn't allow revealing clothes, concerts, and part time jobs because she was too young. They thought it was irresponsible parenting to let a kid do those things without much guidance. She just turned 16 and my parents seem less protective. They treat her differently, more adult compared to 12-24 months ago. I notice the same thing growing up too. In 7th grade, it was a big no-no to ride the bus alone or have a smartphone. They said no 12 year old needs it. But exactly one year later when I turned 13, I was given a phone and was allowed to take the bus alone.

My family member is in his late 80's and lives in a nursing home. He was taken to the hospital around a week ago because there was blood in his stool and in his vomit. They found that he had multiple ulcers in his stomach and that he had a UTI. While there, he had trouble walking and getting up to pee, so he would just pee in the bed, which is very unlike him. A few days later, they took him back to the nursing home, but he had a fever of 103 and was extremely weak. They took him all the way back to the hospital where he is right now. He can barely talk, he just mumbles and it's hard to understand him. He said that his neck was hurting, but he was feeling around his throat, so I don't know if he has strep on top of all of this. I live about 2 1/2 hours from where he is. My mother has driven up almost every day to see him, talk to him, and hear what the doctors are saying, and she sometimes comes back at 4 a.m. I haven't been going with her because I don't want to be there if I don't have to and I don't want to crowd everybody. There's another family member that stays with him all the time so that he's not alone, and she said that he's just staring off and not even trying to talk or move. The doctors think that he may have had a stroke, or he may be having multiple strokes. They're giving him a CAT scan soon. Will he live or is he just done for? At his age, I know that it is very unlikely that he will live long after this. What do you think?

My family and I took a trip to Jamaica and my mom doesn't make that much money and when my aunt told about it she asked me if I would go to Jamaica without her, fast forward to this year my mom and I are going to Costa Rica and my aunt is forcing herself into the trip even though she doesn't know the person we're going to see over there. My mom says she doesn't let my aunt get to her but I feel I have to stick up for her. My aunt is very sneaky and I'm tired of her.

We bought a travel trailer to help my father in law move from the travel trailer(it is falling apart and unlivable!) to be closer to us and to help he get into a better living situation. We told him he can live in it as long as he want/needs just please don't smoke in it. But here is the problem, we spent all of our savings on this. We don't have much money just making it by and he is just not appreciative! He want the trailer and pretty much said can you give me a tv for it too. And didn't even say thank you!

I'm 20 and he just turned 21. Last July he moved out on his own for about 6 months, but then moved back home because his dad made a deal that if he came back home, the dad would help pay for his college. I have never met the family. I have known my boyfriend since 2016 and we got "engaged" late 2017. His parents live not too far from where I live, but we haven't met because they hate my guts apparently. Long story short, my boyfriend is not allowed to meet with me or any of his friends on the weekends due to his controlling parents. I work 8 to 4:30 Monday through Friday and we don't have much time at all because he has to leave our house at 7:00 to be home by 7:30 because his parents demand that time. He is not willing to start meeting me on the weekends because it will only start conflict with his family. It's been eating at me for quite some time, as this pattern happened before he moved out for 6 months. What should I do??

My brother is a little over a year younger than me and my mom has always liked him better. She gave him the biggest bedroom in the house, he has a huge bed, he has his own tv and all three game systems, his own computer, etc. Meanwhile I have the smallest room in the house and I sleep on a military grade cot. I always have to do tons of chores while my brother just gets to do whatever he wants and my mom spoils him. She takes him out with her and leaves me here to do chores. She takes him to eat places and whenever they go out she always buys him stuff but I never get anything. He goes to a private school that my mom drives him to every day. I go to public school and have to take the bus. She gives him money for lunch everyday while I have to eat peanut butter sandwiches. She has admitted he is the favorite son many times to me. She says that she and I are like "oil and water." She has told me that she purposely did not breastfeed me because she was disappointed with how I turned out when I was born, but she says that my brother's birthday was the best day of her life. She breastfed my brother until he finished kindergarten. She told me that she and my dad will be paying for my brother's college but not mine because the money would be wasted on me. She buys my clothes from goodwill but he gets brand new clothes. She takes him on vacation but not me. There are tons of pictures of my brother in our house but none of me. She gives him gifts on my birthday. I am so sad about it.

I'm 34 yrs old, single and living with my mom. currently working full time at a hotel paid $14 hourly. The reason am living with her is because her family lives in other state. My dad moved away with his new wife as well as my brother. Now i'm stuck with my mom and rent of $780 for a basement which am paying along with other bills expenses tho. Technically i'm in a complicated situation where moving out on my own can be difficult because if i do my mom will have to come along. it's not that I don't like her but what if i need space or eventually I get married and have kids? and on top of that she's pushing me to find a better government job which is stressing me even more. I just don't know what can i do indeed

My roommate and I agreed to part ways due to her being unable to ever pay her portion of bills on time. Also because to me personally she is extremely unclean. She leaves her period pads in her room, and makes messes in the kitchen, and never cleans them up in addition to never washing dishes and letting her food mold over in the sink. And on top of all that never has her portion of any bills on time. We gave the landlord our 30 day notices I m moving out the end of April into my own place. However lately I have been getting bad vibes from her and think ai should live asap. She has gone from being friendly to pretending that I don t exist. Then she gives me the silent treatment...and something about her seems off and it is scary. She claims to finally have enough to get her own place so why is she like this? Also should I just leave and stay in a hotel until I can move to my new place? Thanks for any suggestions.

I have NO privacy in my own home from my wife. As an introvert, she can drive me almost insane by spouting negative things about my family to where I need to be alone. The problem comes from the fact that there is NO room in the whole house (that I just bought) that I am safe from her. She will break down any door and damage it to the point that it us useless. My only option is to get in my car, and even that is a challenge sometimes. IF I'm in a room it's like it is her life goal to break in the door. Just to clarify, I am doing absolutely nothing wrong behind the door, just trying to find some peace in my awful house, sometimes trying to get sleep before work I don't want to resort to violence, but as a man I am backed into a corner and with no options, while I feel as a woman somehow she has every right to do this to me? I'm close to seeking professional help, I just don't know what to do, and she pretty much forbids me to tell my family, even though I need to vent. I'm a human too, and almost going insane sometimes. SERIOUSLY I NEED HELP!!! It breaks my heart that we have a wonderful 6 month daughter. I'm the sole provider and my wife doesn't have a job or know how to drive. Because I told my family some stuff before, it has ruined our home life. I've hidden under the bed before when there was no other room available and she grabbed a broom and started jabbing me with it. I have turned to drinking before but it seems like it might be a dangerous door despite feeling good at the time. I become more depressed.

My brother lives in a storage room from the store he works at. He has a 2 year old. The babys mother leaves him with the baby to watch the baby for 1-2 days at a time. They are not together. Everytime i see the baby it is not bathed and always has dirty clothes on. Let me say this. My brother is a piece of ****. He has no refrigerator he has no bath tub. He has the baby there during business hours and he is the only one at the store. What if someone tries to kidnap the child ? Also. I must add my brother has been put into a psych ward. And has been arrested amd tazed. And has tried to kill himself 6 times in the past 2 years. And that is also Under police files. The mother is very neglectful and i cannot discuss this with her because of how our relationship is. We do not get along. I want to report this but i dont want the baby to be taken away. If they dont want their baby i will take it in a heart beat and so will my other brothers and sisters. What should i do ? We have already gone into 2 arguments about this. I dont know what to do.

does anybody out there knows what one must do at the end of the day the voice of your mother tense your nerves at point to make you get a muscle contracture on your back almost every 2 weeks and your ears just want that noise to stop? seriously anybody knows what to do when that happens? and no, shelter for retired is not an option due her big amount of illness and lots of care she needs every day.

Me and my husband first met in college, I was an exchange student and we started dating. I ended up getting pregnant and we got married, but I had a lot of pregnancy complications and I had a miscarriage months later. We stayed married anyway, because we love each other, and this was our main motivation to get married besides the pregnancy. All of this happened 6 years ago, and since then I've been taking a lot more care of myself to not get pregnant again, and we didn't talk about having kinds until now. He really wants me to get pregnant, and so does his family and mine. I finished college, I work, and now I'm studying to get a master's degree. I absolutely love my husband but I'm not thinking about having kids for now or anytime soon, I've been focusing on my career. I believe that someday the right time to become a mom will come, the first time that I got pregnant everything happened so fast and so unplanned, I was so scared, and I'm a foreigner, so I didn't even have my family close to me to give me emotional support. Now I want everything to be perfect, including the perfect time. My husband still insists in the subject, but I know he'll respect my decision. The problem is that his family and mine have been very judgmental about this, they say that I'm selfish and that I'm only thinking about myself, and they talk about it all the time. Am I being selfish for this? Btw, we're both 26

My aunt has always treated me bad and I'm tired of it. I'm 22 and I don't want her apart of my future but my family is very close and they look down on that, don't know what to do.

Im about to get married and have sunk alot of money in this wedding and all related costs. Now im realizing how obnoxious and despicable her father is; and why he never showed up into the picture until the last few weeks. My second worry is that my future spouse is somewhat like her dad and has been really good at hiding her true nature; i always suspected something fake about her. All in all i regret proposing to her and i actually despise her family after getting to know them better. The other day i went over to her house and i brought a basket of fresh strawberries from a friends farm; her dad said ''i dont even wanna touch that..just leave it over there or i'll have one of the kids pick it..'' i tried discussing ending things with her and that its not gonna work etc but she always start crying and begs me to stay. im considering divorce few months after marriage in case living with her turns out to be obnoxious too; i dont want her dad to be my kids grand dad or be related to me. Tomorrow im telling her dad that the prenup agreement is that in case of divorce she walks out the same way she walked in; penniless. If they dont like it then thats their problem; its my house, my commitment and my rules. Suggestions ?

A lot of times whenever she's upset at dad for something, she complains about him. It's become a bit difficult to remember the last time she said something nice about him. It's almost like she's unhappy with the marriage. And since I know gossiping is wrong, I finally snapped at her today. But I feel really bad but dont know how to make it up to her. How do I do that, other than apologizing(as in, what more can I do?)?

This girl who people say likes me cut her and I commented saying how good it was, and her older sister commented teasing and laughing, do you think she knew something or not, I saw her comment on the pic on Facebook and then when the sister saw I commented she wrote teasing ☆ Sent from iOS Dr. Know! 1.1.04 The sister is a lesbian so doesn't like boys but teases ger

If i open up to my parents about the situation, our relationship will be ruined and it will never be able to be fixed, im on my last straw... but if i do not open up to them I need to continue to deal with my extreme mental health issues on my own which is not working and will never work. 16 years of age
