My sister can't have children and I just had a baby . My dad said I helped my sister out and that I just happen to be the one that had the baby . What did he mean ? I am afraid to ask him myself so wanted some advice ? He always sticks up for my sister when I ask something about her

My sister FaceTimes me to see the baby since she works a lot . I am glad she wants to see her but sometimes I am busy and can't always answer and she gets kind of upset with me . I am not sure what to do about it ?

My dad was a US Marine PFC in WWII and later in life he became a gp. What are some good ornaments I might add to his gravesite?

If your adult son/daughter told you they wanted to die and had nothing to live for, and they lived in a different town, if they were going to do it and you had a choice, what would you want to lead up to it? Would you want them to come and visit you that day and do it in their bedroom of your house or visit you and do it in town away from your house, or would you want them to call you from where they lived and then have them hang up and do it, or would you rather just have them do it in their town without seeing or speaking to you again so it would be fast like ripping off a bandaid? And also then, how would you want them to go? Would you want their body intact and be sad if it was ruined or would you worry more about if they were in pain when they died? Ex: gunshot wound to head, really messy might ruin face, jumping off a height, maybe some broken bones but probably mostly in tact. Car crash, might be bloody but worse if car caught on fire and burnt them. And just for reference overdoses (on pills as most people prob. Can't find hard drugs) and slitting wrists are the least likely to actually cause death so those two are out of the question. So basically if your child was going to die and you had no choice, how would you want your last moments and their last day to be?

Okay so me and my step sister became friends about 5 years ago...we hated eachother at first but slowly we became best friends... we had nothing in common then we had a lot in common and now I think we are slipping apart because we have been becoming so polarized. And she has become way to comfortable referring to black people as Ngers and it disgust the hell out of me. For example the most recent event which was today...we went out to eat but when we walked into a restaurant she seriously asked one of the waitresses what happened to the place and why was there ngers in the restaurant. She even said she was going to puke...the drama this btch puts on has been begging me to just explode on her I swear. I am sad and angry at her because she always thinks she is right to...and I mean we have become POLARIZED. From politics to music to style etc... and to me she seems to have become a stick in the mud.... she never admits she is wrong about anything and just thinks as long as she thinks its true or right then it is. Idk but this racist sht has been getting out of control with her, she hates everyone who is not white or near white. I tell her she should give people a chance to prove who they are rather than just jump to such a negative view...and she skips the debate and just says something like "no they are all trash trust me". I think its because her dad has nazis in his family. What to do to tell her its enough?

I'm a female age 27 and I live with my mom because I'm in university full-time and I still pay her rent, food and half the bills and my cell phone. I know some people probably think I should have left by age 18 or 21 so I'm wondering Is this okay? What you you think?

My brother always punches, kicks, makes fun of everything I do and calls me names when I do nothing to him so pease what can I do?

My girlfriend and I have been dating for almost a year few months ago I met her parents at first I was shy towards them especially her dad because I used to think he was going to be that type of dad who would give their daughters boyfriend a hard time but now I see him and his wife as my parental figures because growing up I never had my own biological parents to connect with. I was given up and spent many times in foster homes and juvenile institutions. Now at the moment I want to spen more time with my girlfriends dad and gain more of his respect so I can hopefully have his permission to marry his daughter in the near future because I love her so much, and her parents even her little brother and little sister I came to love and respect also hopefully can call them mum and dad without being awkward I feel they special to me too but I ask for anyone's opinion on my question.

Alright, I never told anyone about how I feel on this matter because they would probably just dismiss me. My names Karl,16, and My sister is Helen, 13. Helen lacks quite literally every basic social and academic skill. We have an intact family, both parents still happily togehter, little sister, me and Helen. I was always the smart one, athletic one, the charismatic one and I really feel weird for her. Helen really ismt going down a good path, school doesn't interest her, she hangs out with hoodlums and stupid brats. Her grades are awful, and now you might think shes a troubled kid, but no shes just that dumb. I dont hate her, I just dont seem to see any good quality in her. She talks back to our parents, she isnt fit AT ALL, shes lazy, shy and if you somehow break that shyness barrier shes just going to be rude to you. I really dont know what to do, she declines any offer of help, she lies to evefyone in the house, about her grades, about parties, drinking. On the other side theres me... I go to math, boxing competitions, everyone seems to enjoy my presence and all of my parents' colleagues think Im pleasant. Ofcourse I have my fair share of problems, I often fall into a depressive state of mind, cant seem to connect wkth people because on a deeper level even though I understand them. Im really scared that one day she wont have money, shell be helpless and may even become toxic and angry at me and lash out and try to attack me or even kill me..... Out spite and jealousy..

OK, so this question might be a rhetorical one, but hear this. I've been living a nightmare for seven years now with this dude from the same parents, which it even disgusts me to call him brother. I had to move back in with my parents, since my ex and I went our separate ways. My dad dies almost two years ago, and he seems to be getting worse. i have asked other questions before in here, on what could possibly make him scrape and hit his feet on the ground for two hours straight, in very frequent sessions. Some people suggested it may be coke. He has threaten me several times, in a very violent manner, such as he would burn my eyes with boiling water, etc... I know these are all the signs of a psychopath, and I have told the police several times, to no avail. They tell me they can't do anything about it. Excuse my bad language, so who the **** can? I am sick and tired of this dude, so much so in fact, that I have considered taking action by my own hands, a few times. I cannot stand even his presence, and it's taking a huge negative impact in my life, as I lost several jobs, due to being constantly irritated with him. Now, his latest was taking a fresh fruit juicer/mixer my mum bought and take ut up to his bedroom. My mum and I automatically drew the conclusion that he is up to no good. The guy is absolutely useless. Hasn't had a proper job in eighteen years. Did everything illegal under the sun. what do I do?

She is not deserving of anything.

My parents are sort of overprotective and they really don't let me spend night out with friends. My friends have come up with an idea of going for a trek in the mountains in a few weeks but my father would kick my butt outta the home for even thinking about that because I have an exam due in about a month. I'm 19 years old already and I know it's time I had gone out and met new people and experienced new things but my parents just won't let me go. Is there a way I could persuade them?

I was dating a handsome coworker for over a month (both 26) He flirted with 3 other girls at work & they told me he seemed creepy. He always asked me if I was out with my co worker (Alex who likes me) & had to know where I was. My coworkers thought he acted jealous. He told me he was quitting but told our boss he was just taking leave for a week, on his last day he begged me to get a hotel room with him, because he was leaving, I said no I met him while he was on leave & all he said was how handsome he is, about the 20+ girls he's been with & how other guys say how handsome he is. He told me to get with my co worker Alex, he said he didn't need me to get lucky, that there is someone else & he could'v had me if he wanted. Girls were walking past & he'd say "she looks good", I said I could set him up with one of our co workers (Erin) he said ok, I asked him to set me up with his friend and he said he would have his friend call me that night. (I did not get a phone call). I said in the past when he tried to sleep with me, I was happy being friends even though I liked him. The day after he texted me to ask if I spoke to Erin I told him I would ask her the next day. He barely responded to my texts & wrote "best of luck" & "thumbs up". I told him his friend never called me so he said he would get him to call but he still didn't. He'd call daily but I haven't heard from him since the last messages. I was shocked with way acted when I met him. why did he say those things?

My Mother and Father got a divorce years ago since then they don't get along that much. Years later on my Dad has a new girlfriend Sara who I met and she's very sweet, smart, and kind to me, I like her but my Mom on the other hand not very much. I think my Mom is jealous of her. When my Mother and Dad's girlfriend finally met I can tell she wasn't really happy, when she was telling us about herself my Mom didn't smile once and when I asked her about how she felt about her she said she doesn't care for her at all, probably because my Dad's girlfriend is literally everything my Mom is not, she has a College degree, my Mom never went to College she has a great career and treats me like her own son. What makes my Mom's jealousy of my Dad and his girlfriends relationship worse is that My Mom's boyfriend ended up dumping her. After she got dumped it led to my Mom feeling very bitter and even more jealous of my Dad and his girlfriends happy relationship to the point where she is now comfort eating just to make herself feel better out of pity which is now making my Mom gain weight now she's 216 pounds. I did tell my Dad's girlfriend about my Mom's weight gain from comfort eating, Sara actually did felt sorry for her despite her being aware that my Mom did not like her. What's your opinions on this situation and how can I help my Mom not feel this was anymore

I'm coming home late because I lost track of time and my parents are going to give me sooooo much sh*t when I get home because they're beyond pissed. I'm 19, and i'm a girl, please anyone have some advice as to what i can say so they won't be as mad?? Anything?? Thank you

My brother and I are both upset in our rooms. My Mom and sister are gone for the weekend. My grandmother said she'd come get us in the morning cause of our Dad. Help, he is not violent or anything but ranting and it is really upsetting. He just ranted that our mother was a **** and he was going to divorce the *****. I am upset and Mom is not responding to texts. My Dad is an alcoholic so he gets drunk literally every day but this is worse then normal.

I don't really have a problem with my mom. It's my extremely homophobic, sexist and controlling stepfather that is married to her. They will occasionally ask me what time I sleep and when I wake up and they ask me what i do before sleeping late like i usually do and i tell them i am out during the night jogging and they tell me not to do that and i said i only do it before 10 (lie, but they believe it) During halloween my stepdad showed me his "police" badge in a 2007 lexus with my mom and my half brother (unsure if just for halloween or if its his real night job) and told.me to stay off the streets after 10. Where i live (a very diverse city) there are no curfew laws for an 18 year old who lives alone and they still pretend to control my "curfew" She also won't allow me to have a drivers license, thinks I am too mentally incompetent plus driving is too expensive On a side note, they are Armenian

I was looking for blank paper in my mom's desk, and found an image of the gang from Archie Comics in... explicit imagery. I have no idea how to feel. I know it's my mom, because her handwriting, and the fact she is the only one who can draw well in this house. What do I even do?

Im 18 and my step sister is 17. She does not live with me. She lives with her mom and step dad. Ive tried being close with her and just tried having that sister bond. But recently shes been posting really mean things on instagram about her dad aka my step dad. she makes him sound like an awful person. when in reality he does so much for her. and always tries to see her and she either ignores him or is just plain rude. not to mention if it wasnt for my step dad paying almost $3k a month in child support my step sister's family would be homeless. I recently showed my mom and step dad the posts because it just made me so upset at how unappreciative and rude she is. this was a real wake up call for my family because we always just thought she was shy or quiet when she was around us. i just dont want anything to do with her. she blocked me on insta. and im quite sure she posted something about me after she blocked me because her number in posts went up, i think its best to just cut her out of my life, i cant be around someone so disrespectful to my family who has always done so much for her. how do i cut ties with her

Example: recently I called up my dad and to ask what pressure my car tires needed to be at (answer is that the psi is typically on the tire)

My father's family is crazy and rich. I grew up lower middle class. They treat us like crap and are very violent towards me. My grandmother ignores me like I don't exist. There's been stabbings and lots of alcoholism and drug abuse. I have gotten beaten by my Step grandfather and his friends. I basically only exist as a punching bag. All my cousins hate me and they treat me like crap. I contemplate suicide every day and want to die so bad. My teachers don't care at all and everyone at school treats me like crap. Why did he have children if he knew what his family was like. Hes not a good father at all. He doesn't want anything to do with me either. My life sucks.

On August 9th 2018 I was forced to leave my moms house because of CPS. I went to live back with my dad and on August 10th I ran away and didn't get caught until I answered a no caller ID on August 12th at 9am. Anyways, I ran away because I love the freedom and i want to see my mom again. I miss not allowed to see her until I'm 18 years old. I am currently 15 years old and that's a long time from now... I was so happy when I ran away. Sadly it started an police investigation cause I had journals about the things I've done. My secrets got out and my dad forced me into a mental hospital. Him and his wife lied to get me admitted they said I wasn't evil and tried to kill my stepmom and that I am some violent person. Which I am not at all. I stayed there from August 18th - 21st. They were so sad when I got discharged. Then my stepmom made the idea for me to get sent away to live with my great uncle in Florida. (We live in Texas) On August 25th I was obligated to go on a plane and get sentenced to FL supposedly until the investigation is over with. (Right now the state attorney is reviewing it) Im crying every single day... i miss my mom so much and wish my dad would pay attention and understand. He barely even texts or calls me anymore. My stepmom acts like i never even existed. What should I do? It's been almost 3 months since all this happened and nothing is getting better. I was so happier when I was free..

ok he visit on weekends it's a bit longer this time due to halloween to bring his nephew over last night I was just ready to fall asleep he was making my nephew laugh on purpose to keep me awake if not he could of played his video games instead the whole time I asked him nicely to be quiet once he didn't I blasted my tv all the way up he got mad and told our mom and saying I woke up my nephew but she knew I didn't because she heard him from her room so she didn't say anything to me he was even mader today he was being negative towards me I told him to go to hell later he told me to grow up I am so sick of this I don't know what to do I have no other family to live with they are in another state we moved I'm trying to be strong but I don't know anymore I don't vent to my mom anymore cause she doesn't even care. I'm sorry your brother did that to you but my cousin molested me for 6 years don't try to compete anyone you don't know and some of us need to sleep early but we are fine now everyone thanks anyway :)

A few things about my 76 year old Grandmother, She is a passive person and never did much with Herself except get married and have kids(which She neglected). Currently She is pretty poor and lives in section 8 housing. Mostly because She has no pension from never havinghad a career. Since She's in a dumpy apartment She often sits around and eats. Needless to say She lives to go out to lunch and probably weighs about 300 pounds. Lately Her right knee has randomly been going out and She supposedly can't walk. Both my Mom and Aunt have spent hours trying to help Her. Meanwhile, She's miraculously able to go out to lunch with friends when She wants to and cancels therapy appointments She really should go to. Currently She is staying at our house after we spent half the day helping Her when She called because She couldn't walk. Yet, once She gets home with us She gets all comfy and starts walking around the house doing things! So, Her knee is magically fine when there's something She wants to do. I should mention, God love Her but this woman is also intellectually rather stupid.

So we were hanging out in the evening watching a movie and he didn't feed the dog at all that day so I told him he should feed it and he said he doesn't want to and I told him that dogs need to eat every day and he told me to shut up!!? :( and I told him that's rude and he SCREAMED I'm trying to watch the movie and went over to the dog and BEAT IT TO THE GROUND with a chair and then kicked and stomped on him so I started screaming and crying and he just said "YOU ******* LIKE THE DOG MORE THEN ME" and threw the chair at me but missed and stormed out of the house so I went home alone and I'm scared

ive been juuling for about a year now and i recently been caught. My whole family kinda hates me now. And i just really need to know how i explain this. and ik im an idiot for juuling at 16.

My husband is going through a tough situation. He is from Mexico, and his mom has diabetes and right now she has a leg ulcer. He feels responsible for her. His other siblings dont want to help him pay the medical bills. Mexico is extremely corrupt, they dont really care about patients unless they have tons of money. My husband is sending her money but we might go broke for a while after this :( Its even causing him to have a bad attitude with me. He admits that he hates paying the price of his mother not taking care of herself(shes alchoholic). It makes me upset for him, we had a fight over something else and I can't comfort him or give him advice right now.
