I'm 22 and work full-time as a cashier/stocker at a grocery store. It's not a high paying job, but I really enjoy what I do. I've been putting a decent amount of my money into savings and help buy some groceries for the house. However, my sister (who's 16) keeps giving me a hard time that I'm "taking the easy way out" because I didn't go to college along with working. She says that a person should go even if they're not interested because it's a "life experience". She also keeps saying that if a person isn't trying to get out on their own, they're a freeloader. Is this true?

In the past few years my mother have been negative because of my stepdad. She's been obsessed on what he does, always looking through what he does and checking up on him. And if she isnt she is talking bad things about him not just to me but to her own kids that she had with him since they were little. I'm not saying my step dad is innocent, he ain't no saint. He done a lot of bad things to her such as cheating, breaking her arm, always putting her second best, putting her down. He's a full on jerk!!! She has a point to be mad. But my point is i don't want to deal with her ranting about him ALL THE TiME!!!!!! And she gets aggressive when i tell her i don't want to hear that especially today when i barley woke up this morning. She starts yelling at me saying vulgar stuff that i should do my stepdad since i don't get to listen to her which made me feel really uncomfortable and disgusted of her talking like that. And that i am a two face because i don't ever want to say anything. The reason why is because i don't want to get involve between the both of them. It's their problem. And i am in a environment where if i say something it will benefit me later on. My stepdad is very vengeful and my mom knows that. So how to deal with a negative person/or situation?

My mom recently got a boyfriend and he keeps inviting us everywhere. It's only been a week and every single day he wants to take us out to eat. My mom always accepts without telling my sisters and me. I'm getting annoyed.Today, my mom said we were going to go shopping together when they get out of work but i don't want to. I want to tell my mom about this but i don't want to be rude. My mom barely came out with the news a few days ago too so this is way too suden. Im still dealing with my parents divorce. My mom is happy i get that but i feel like she isn't thinking about us, her daughters.

My fiancée died a few years ago. We were in love. We were in love and wanted to start a family. He died and I thought I never would find love again but I did. But he was important to me so I want to honor his memory by giving my child his full name. He was a Junior named after his Dad. So the baby would be John Seavers III. My late fiancées Dad is still alive and I have a good relationship with him. Why would my fiancée be mad, I told him he can name next kids

my daughter is about to bridge to juniors and we just got all her patches from cookie sales, am i supposed to put these on her brownie uniform that will be retired in days or can they go on her junior uniform

I've been raising him since he was 1 now he's 11. I love him so much. I'm 27 and I've given up so much for him until I feel he's so unappreciative. I don't have kids or time for myself just always working trying to provide. But now I've started giving him chores and he hates it and talks back. He thinks he shouldn't have to do anything. He's constantly asking for games and iPhones. He's also lying about any and everything now until I can't trust him. Anything I tell hi to do he does the opposite. I'm just at the point where I'm tired and want to live my life but feel guilty . Everyday is becoming a battle. His mom is unfit. I love him but so overwhelmed

I don't even know where to start with this. All I can say is I'm scared, really scared. I was clinically diagnosed with depression. I've had it forever now it feels. When I was diagnosed my mother called me a fake, told me nothing I feel is real and that I'm doing it for attention. She told everyone in my family to "not listen to her" and "she's lying, she's fine." They believed her over me, and most of them told me "you shouldn't joke around with things like that." That was 5 years ago and I've been dying on the inside ever since. I want someone to listen, but I can't seem to get the words out. I want to get help, but I can't afford it. My family won't help me, I have no one else to turn to. My parents neglected me and my kidbrother for most our lifes. They turned to illegal drugs when their lives went down. Which caused my life to be miserable, I don't even know about my kidbrother's. I was robbed 3 times in 2 days. Only me. This only happened because my parents turned our house open to people on the street, the kind of people who won't help themselves also the kind who would rather buy drugs than a home. My parents even claimed they hate me, wished I was never born after. They told me this directly. I had things taken from me that I worked for. Somethings that really meant a lot to me and if I can't talk to my own family...then I don't know who I can talk to. I don't have money for help and I don't want to face my family for it. I want to know I'm not alone. I'm scared.

I asked her if I have permission to take magic mushrooms, and she said no, I have taken them before which she is well aware of, she is also well aware of the fact that they haven't done anything negative to me or anyone around me, yet she started to scream at the top of her lungs for me to get out of the house and to not talk to her, and when I mean scream I mean she full of screamed, she also whacked me with a belt as i left the room I don't understand what her problem is, if she's not going to allow it I just wanted 1 good reason to why. I wasn't even annoying her I asked that 1 time. Is there anyway to convince her? Or is she some crazy ******* lady who's unfortunately my mum holy **** there are some dumbass responses

I'll keep this as short as possible; I come from from a conservative family and my cousin wants me to drive him and his fiance out of town to get an abortion. They asked me because I'm the only one in the family who leans more to the left than I ever have to the right. My only concern are the consequences if our family find outs.

Ive been going through a lot recently. Between work and bills and this household of 7 people, and some personal matters I won't state here, I'm getting so stressed out, none of this is new its been going on for a while and I'm so tired of my fiance and our baby having to deal with all my anger and frustration. We're in the process of trying to move out but with car notes, insurance, and school loans its taking a lot more time than inspected. The girl whom is 16 acts grown and she's straight nasty, disrespectful, and steals everyones things. I've tried to be her friend, and talk to her but nothing is changing. it just makes me so mad and because of everything building up I want to fight and teach her to leave my things alone. I just don't want to do that as she is a minor and I'm 23, so I'm trying to figure out a way to release my anger without fighting her. She claims she feels like we always target her and look ar her negativity but every time I try to help she just does something to provoke me and then she always expects her gma to protect her. Her gma has custody of her and her brother but their mother just recently moved in and every time their gma tells them to do something their mama tries to intervene.for example their gma will tell the boy to get off the video game and his mother will lie and say he got off or when the gma starts walking back there the mother will inform the boy so he can quickly get off and act like he was never on. How can I release my anger??

They no longer respond to my text and when they see me they don't even bother speaking

I noticed this ever since I went away for college. Whenever I return home, I always get frustrated with my family specifically with my older (I'm the youngest). As a result, my family has considered me having a short temper but really, many of my siblings do too. Some are even worse than mine. The things that piss me off is when I come home and notice that they're still the same people. My older siblings are still leaving dirty dishes in the sink for my mother to clean up and still doing their usual stuff like my oldest brother leaves food out on the table instead of putting it in the fridge or my other sister who always forgets to lock the our front gates (Our stuff has been taken twice). My patience is much longer with other people but with my family, I notice that I do get more frustrated and irrated easily. Is this normal?

Shework for them He plays videogames all day and sleep all day He goes out only to drink. He is 25 and on welfare

My nephew has a half brother. My sister s boyfriend had a baby with another girl before he met her. His first child, Noah, is never really around our family so we rarely ever see him, & that s understandable because he s not related to us & my sister s boyfriend never brings him around, to hang out with us like a family. Should i feel bad about buying my nephew so many new toys & not buying anything for Noah? I mean honestly i would feel weird if i bought something for Noah because he s sort of like a random kid, not to be mean but, i don t know much about him, & i rarely ever see him.

Hi i'm Parker and i'm 13 years old. My mom wants me to live with my aunt because sometimes i don't clean up after myself or do my chores. And because i am disrespectful. Last week my mom took away my phone because I had online friends. I face-timed with them all the time, it was clear that they were real people. So now that i don't have my phone, I feel like i have no reason to do anything. My mom always tells people that i'm so spoiled and all this other stuff but, i never have my hair done, or my nails, or ever have clothes that i didn't wear 1000 times. We hardly go out to eat or do anything. My mom only work 1-3 days and doesn't pay any of the bills, my dad does. But anyways, do ya'll think this is reasonable, when there are kids that are way worst than me?

I don t people to see that I m buying lube. Thankfully this place has a self checkout but if it s somewhat busy which is shouldn t be too bad around when I m going but with my luck it will be. I can t think of a good way to hide it from other people s view when I m standing in a line.

For example: the hood latch on my dad's car was broken so I suggested that he tie it down to prevent it from flying open on the freeway. He refuses calling it a waste of time... then proceeds to cause a pile up on the freeway cause you guessed it it flew open. Cost over $5000 in repairs. The water pump on the truck broke so I suggested it be towed to the mechanic. He refused and continued driving which caused the engine to overheat and blow up. Turned a $150 problem in to a $2500 rebuilt engine. Warned him to avoid driving on soft sand and mud since his car isn't 4X4. He ignored me and drove on them getting stuck several times. I had to drive 100 miles to get him out by digging for hours. Tow truck would've cost $1000 or more. There's dozens of other examples where he completely ignored me and cost him big financially (around $50,000). So should I stop warning him or continue hoping he'll stop being pigheaded and listen one day?
