Family: Question: What s going on with my son?

Question: What s going on with my son?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 01:42 PM PST

I was just in the kitchen having coffee and doing my work and I noticed my son frantically running down into the kitchen and he takes a pair of scissors then runs down to the basement. He then frantically runs back upstairs to his room and stays there for a minute and then runs back down into the basement. He then runs back upstairs into the kitchen looking very stressed and takes a piece of foil paper. I then look at him and ask "what are you doing?" He responds quite angrily "nothing". He then runs back down into the basement then back upstairs to get a piece of tape and then again I ask him "what s going on?" and then he snaps at me and yells "**** OFF AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS STOP ******* INTERROGATING ME". He then ran back down into the basement. I was shocked and horrified. Any ideas what s going on with him and why he s so angry? He s never been like this before and I m worried.

Question: My sister is hot and I keep trying to get her wet, but...?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 01:34 PM PST

My sister is currently 40ºc and she doesn't want to see a doctor cause she's afraid of Needles. She doesn't even want to take a cold shower, so i have to take a cloth soak in water and get her wet by that and it doesn't seem to bring down the body Temperature!

Question: Going through your teenager’s things?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 01:32 PM PST

Is it acceptable for parents to read their teenage daughter's journal or diary or to go through things in her room if they have reasons to suspect that she might be involved in some kind of unhealthy or immoral activity? If so, how should we handle the situation if we do find evidence that something is going on?

Question: Why does Walmart have no service?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 01:22 PM PST

It can't be the cell phone towers because as soon as I leave the building it comes back 5 bars and also places like schools are the same way. Do these places use cell phone jammers? That wouldn't make sense though because WiFi works in Walmart and stuff, just cell reception doesn't. Also aren't cell phone jammers illegal?

Question: My parents are getting me in trouble at school and work. What can I do?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 12:04 PM PST

If I don't respond to a text right away, even if I am at work or in class, I won't be allowed to go to school/work again until my dad feels that I understand the importance of answering texts (which have never been anything urgent). If I try to study for an exam instead of watching TV with my folks, my books are taken away and locked up. My bosses and teachers feel like I am making this up, but I am not. My classmates/coworkers call me a baby and think I am making lame excuses blaming my parents instead of taking responsibility, but the things I say sound crazy because they are. It is my senior year of college and my folks are stricter than ever because they can't handle that I have an education and can support myself. I don't live at home anymore but they stop by several times a week and expect me to visit them every weekend. My grades are being compromised and my jobs are at risk. I don't know what to do. The more I strive for independence the more obstacles I face from them. They just won't let go.

Question: How to get rid of sister out of my apartment? Am I wrong?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 12:01 PM PST

Me and my boyfriend of 4 years moved into a apartment about a month ago and I allowed my sister to stay with us because she wanted to get a feel out of Atlanta (that's where we moved to). In the past she's always had a attitude problem when we was living with our mom but I just thought it was just a regular teenage problem. She's 21 now. Ever since we've moved in it's been complete hell. Attitudes towards us everyday like literally. Always have mood swings one minute she's nice the next she's mad about something that we don't know about and we get the heat for it. If I ask her to clean something it's an attitude. I'm even only letting her pay her portion of rent no bills. She doesn't wanna go half on groceries but constantly eats our food. She claims she only wants to buy what she will eat. If there's dishes in the sink she'll only wash wash her dishes and leave the rest although what I cooked she ate from it as well. It's making my bf go crazy. It's making us uncomfortable because of the passive aggressive attitudes. Me and her got in a huge argument the other day about everything and she still doesn't feel like she did anything wrong. Oh yeah did I mention she wants to split OUR fridge in half? Am I crazy? Is this not a uncomfortable person to live with? I love her but I think from a distance is better. Ever since our argument nothing and I mean nothing has changed. She acts more like a stranger than family what should I do?

Question: Can someone help?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 12:01 PM PST

So I'm a 13 year old boy and I have this really annoying upper lip hair that makes me look really ugly. So I was extremely hesitant but while my dad was at the gym I texted him asking if he could teach me how to shave. He said yes and came home and didn't talk to me. I feel like he feels awkward for me. I'm just scared because everyone in my family probably knows and I don't want to seem weird because I have to shave. I don't know if I should ask him in person now. Someone please help me figure out what to say to him. Thanks

Question: My divorced parents are making me choose a side ! and it sucks !?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 11:43 AM PST

Question: Which is better? To be open or silent?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 11:29 AM PST

I'll bring up my past. Well, whenever I said something to my mother, she would make me feel bad, so I became silent and nontalkative. I was a bad child or felt like one because I would get into trouble in elementary school. I was somewhat a bully, and other students would also bully me or tease me. And I would tell my parents (mainly my mom) everything. When I had something in mind, I'd blurt it out without any thoughts beforehand and would regret it later on. If I hadn't said anything, things would have been so different in my life as of right now. That's why I said "I shouldn't have said that" after saying most things because of what I said. I would have rather kept to myself because then I wouldn't have dealt with the long talks my mother gave to me. That's why I never said too much and was self-concious after that. This was all in elementary school. I'm in high school and sometimes keep to myself so things won't get bad. I often am open and say how I feel now, but I do it with caution. I remember being so naïve back then and would do the dumbest things and I told my mom. I hated saying them afterword. I'd be like "Aw, I wish I hadn't said that" to avoid speeches. I did something bad & then I'd say it because I'm open and honest but even back then I was more of a liar then I'd be honest and more open about my feelings and intentions to have them be corrected. I don't know how to feel now because if I kept them in, then I wouldn't know what was right or wrong.

Question: Can others do without television?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 11:16 AM PST

I notice my brother stopped at home but I decided to do without cable. I actually have no TV but I am sure I can buy something to get local channels. My brother acts like he makes great money. How will it be for my brother without TV and what could we buy for local channels?

Question: How to deal with a lazy Mother that blames you for Her problems?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 10:55 AM PST

To make a long story short, I suffered a massive stroke and since have been dependent on my Mom for help, as early on after I was discharged from the hospital I was quite incapacitated. However, now, years later I'm WAY better and mostly able to do everything myself. Unfortunately, during my recovery process while living at my Parents home I've discovered my Mother is very toxic. For example.... granted today is a Saturday, I was screamed at because She felt She HAD to get out of bed and pick up some cereal I accidentally spilled from the box. She's angry She can't "Just have one day to Herself," and has to help everyone. Mind you, She chose to get out of bed and help me. I could've done it myself. Not to mention She has most days off because She is a stay at home Mom! In fact, at the time She got angry at me for having to get out of bed it was 12 noon. Currently She is still in bed and it's nearly two o' clock. I'm not kidding and I'm not a troll, just a young woman(34) in a ridiculous situation. Even Her Sister agrees that She lays around a lot. When my Dad is at work She stays in bed half the day and even bitches about having to take a shower.

Question: Cousin making me feel a failure of the family?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 10:46 AM PST

We are a close family. I am the lowest achieving sibling and cousin, though I am happily married and have loving and happy children. I do not have a good job and live in a council house. The others have decent careers and their own homes. My cousin who i thought of as a friend highlights my failures and I no longer enjoy family get togethers. Do I grin and bear it or go my own way. I don t want to cause a family rift by challenging my cousin. Thanks

Question: I'm curious to know how other parents disciplin there teenagers when they don't abide by the rules.?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 09:56 AM PST

For things like staying out all night without calling. Refusing to do chores. Getting D's and F's in school. My ex husband is an alcoholic and is no help at all. I'm just wondering how other parents out there deal with there teenagers. Oh, and I did take his xbox away because of his grades and that's when he started staying out all night and stopped doing his chores.

Question: Was this wrong? I feel too guilty now?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 09:25 AM PST

Ok so obviously im a guy living with parents (ok, im 16 not 26 so yes). Today after school it was just me and my sister at home (she is 13). Parents weren't coming home until about 6 pm. My sister dropped a family frame photo and totally smashed all the glass and was worried mum and dad will yell at her. Now, i was so horny and after watching porn, i figured id ask her something. I told her i would take all the blame for her if she, well if she blew me (BJ). She sounded interested and hugged me saying ok ok thank you and kissed me. She got on her knees, sucked me and i came in her mouth in like 5 minutes, in which she swallowed. Do you think this was right? Letting my sister do that to me? It was my first BJ and i really wanted it, and definitely she did a good job. I'm now grounded.

Question: My coworkers talk alottttt. We are a team of three and sometimes the two talk so much that I can’t get a word in edgewise. What do I do?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 08:33 AM PST

We had meetings for our clients recently and they kept running 10 minutes over just talking and talking and talking...

Question: I want to travel for vacation ¿Cancun or Punta Cana?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 08:32 AM PST

What is the best for 10 days?

Question: Why is my so angry the fact that I want to keep a relationship with my half sister?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 08:18 AM PST

My dad died when I was a baby, never got to meet him. My mom had a fight with my older half sister and their mom 20 years ago. I never had a relationship with my half siblings because of how they treated my mom. I remember as a kid how horrible they were. As a kid, I hated my oldest half sister. But had a relationship with the middle child half sister. I am the youngest in the family. I still hate the oldest sister but now talk to the middle child sister. I guess my mom was expecting for me to NEVER talk to any of them. Because she always gets so angry and throwing names at me just for speaking to them. She keeps saying I have a horrible attitude just like them. I look like my sister so I don't know if she thinks I am very similar to them. I consider myself as a nice person though. Why is my mom so mean and angry? I know what they did was horrible but I still don't talk to the oldest sister and that's who she had a fight with. I say Hi to their mom when I see her at stores and my mom gets angry at me. Today she started calling me loser, always will be a failure and envious of others happiness

Question: Does my punishment by my parents fit my mistake?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 07:32 AM PST

So I lied to my parents last weekend about being done with homework so I could go to a party. They found out I lied. I am grounded for a month. On Thanksgiving I cannot go with them to my aunt's where the family will be and have to stay home by myself. I also cannot eat with my parents and siblings until December 5th (the one month mark). I can eat obviously but must not eat with them at the table. No friends can be seen except at school and I cannot go out anywhere until Dec. 5th. I can only drink water and no television, Internet, or radio in my room. Lastly, no birthday celebration is allowed and my parents said they will not acknowledge my birthday (birthday is November 25th). So this seems extreme to me. I lied, I lied about lying, and procrastinated homework. But solitary confinement on a 16 year old seems extreme. Cancelling my birthday? I know they mean it as they refused to acknowledge my birthday when I was 9 and had talked back to my parents. So I am wondering, I made a mistake by lying but is this extreme, are they mean? My Dad is retired from the military but he is treating me like an enemy combatant. My Mom goes along with it. I'm really mad at them and not sorry for what I did now that I have this punishment, was sorry beforehand. So is this punishment too much?

Question: Since my sister is cruel to family so we have little to do with her. How should my brother explain this to his son who she's cruel to?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 07:17 AM PST

She is particularly cruel to his son because he is different as he has autism.

Question: He doesn't make enough money, or good enough?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 05:36 AM PST

My family is very old school! They believe the man should be the bread winner, and they don't believe living together or spending the night before marriage. I'm always being told to marry someone with money. Someone that can take care of me, and at one point I kinda had that but he was a real jerk, and very controlling. Made me work, and almost punished me if I treated my mom to dinner on mothers day. I met an over all good guy, but its broke, and working on getting his stuff together. I do really like him, but he's broke! The thing is he does treat me with respect, and i like that, but he's going to get wrote off right off the bat because he's broke! However he did buy an old truck, but it needs work yet. He has his own place, and a job that pays so so. Mr perfect for family does not exist 1. Has money 2. Will accept old school ways (doesn't matter if you're 16, or 60) 3. Will treat me good 4. Same religious views 5. Same political views 6. Not an idiot 7. Not a jerk 8. Not lazy I know there's more. I know hes going to get wrote off because he's 30, with an old truck that needs work, but he likes old school vehicles. It seems at least hes halfway trying at the very least. He's respectful to me. More than what I am use too, and I'm attracted to him for some reason If i can go be with someone else, who will be respectful, has money or what ever but they been in, and out jail, and one look at him my dad won't like him at all, and I don't like him like that.

Question: How to tell the mom you is married?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 04:26 AM PST

Question: My aunt is estranged from the family for 5 years now. I have good childhood memories with her. Do I need to throw those away now?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 04:22 AM PST

With the estrangement do I need to throw away the good childhood memories I have of her and her daughter? Her daughter does as she says so her daughter is estranged now also. The husband she is divorced from so I don't really care about him anymore and he was never close. Now the aunt is very bitter and hostile and I have no idea what the daughter is like now as an adult.

Question: Does being a step-parent get somewhat easier after the stepkids have grown up and moved out?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 04:21 AM PST

Question: What's wrong with me.? I get upset for no reason?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 04:04 AM PST

When someone cancels a plan or even when my married sister makes plan and tells to my unmarried sister first instead of telling me, my mood gets off, idk what should I do it's clearly all over my face I feel like I don't want to go with them anymore. it's out of my control. What's wrong with me? Basically I am funloving and outgoing. But sometimes when it happens I become irratable and I get an attitude. I want to change plz help me.  Ps: I am the fav of my parents

Question: Should I walk away from my mother and my entire family?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 02:22 AM PST

Years ago, I was sectioned away from my mother and her family in a custody battle, so from the beginning, I was distanced from them but I would visit them on holidays. Years later as an adult, my mother and her siblings did not agree with my divorce (even though they never visited me or called me). After my divorce, I went through unthinkable difficulties including some major health problems. I made a decision to move (all by myself) to a warmer climate since I never really felt close to my family anyway. My family discovered that I worked in the exotic dance business for several years to assist in funding my education (which they never assisted me financially anyway). So, they did not like that either, and they pulled away from me even more. I have also kept away due to their judgement on my survival and because they just haven't been a part of my life enough to judge it anyway. I became extremely ill about 4 years ago, and I am still recovering. When my mother and her family found out, no one reached out even at my worst. I believe I have been completely forgotten, and every day I see them post things on facebook and other social media. I think I should simply cut them out of my life in every regard but this is a huge decision because then I will be alone alone...I have no kids, no other family near me....no one at all. I just want to know what you think is best. Btw, I should mention that I have tried MANY MANY times to resolve this but nothing changes

Question: Should I bring my girlfriend to my family’s Xmas party?

Posted: 10 Nov 2018 02:19 AM PST

I spend every Christmas with my mom's family. My older cousin dated this white girl and had her over one Christmas but we never saw her again & I don't want that to be me. My other cousins boyfriend is at every gathering and has been from when they started dating 5-6 years ago. I don't really fit in with my cousins they were athletic I was artistic. I expirement w/ clothes & ****. But they're all Hispanic my girlfriends Asian. I'm 19 she went to high school with me. My mom doesn't even know she exists & im not sure I want her to. I think one of my cousins know about her cause he watches my Snapchat so he sees her in addition to all the weird art **** I do. But she'll only be able to converse with my cousins and I usually hang with the elders cause I relate to them, they won't be able communicate well & than they'll feel bad they didn't get her anything

Question: My father talked to me about picking up my oldest sister?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 11:36 PM PST

So I'm a 24 year old guy. I just got my license and car like 8 months ago. My siblings are my brother (27) and our sisters (30 &34). We all have cars except our oldest sister. So my brother doesn't live with us. He comes over though since he sometimes drops my mom home or just to visit. he was over here tonight and my dad had a talk with him. He says sometimes when my brother is over here he needs to pick up our sister because she has to walk 2 blocks after gretting off the bus stop. I work late so I get off at 11pm. I pick her up at the bus stop but I only have one day off I can do it. But if I don't then nobody else does which makes me kinda sad. The rest of them are there more simply because they have earlier work schedules. My brother gets off at like 3pm, he comes here around 4pm sometimes. my sister gets home at like 3pm too but my oldest sister gets here at 5pm. My question is do you think my dad is right. Before I had a car my sister used to take me to work until she worked earlier then my cousin took me while my brother took me home from work every time. I just feel like we need to look out for her, especially since I heard that some man tried to pick her up in his car one time while she was walking home.

Question: Why would any parent be OK with their kid joining the military?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 11:02 PM PST

where there is a possibility of him getting shot or losing a limb. If my child wanted to join the army I would beg him not to go and if he did everyday I would be worried and stressed out

Question: Why do people insult me instead of understanding me?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 09:59 PM PST

I'm 13 years old and last week i said that i hate my "father" and want to abandon him because i found out he's homosexual, and that made me feel sad and angry, and i'd love to know what can i do to find a family and make him kick me out of the house. I had to be insulted by some people instead of being helped, in my opinion i think it's normal to feel this way and i have the right to say i don't want to be his daughter anymore and he deserves to be alone. He adopted me because my biological parents didn't want to take care of me, he never treat me badly but i think he should die or be alone. I'm not a troll, i only want him to kick me out of the house and help me find a real family to be with. P.s i've to say that he usually calls me "my princess" when he posts a pic on Facebook, but he's false and i feel he hates me He's a false gay father Sorry i wanted to say "he never treated me badly"

Question: I'm feeling sad and alone..going through a really difficult time and I don't know how to cope?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 09:18 PM PST

My dad moved out recently. It was a long time coming because my parents have been having problems for so long, ever since I was 12 or 13 (I am 17 now). But I just feel really, really sad. I feel like I have no one to talk to. My mom is no help, she hates him and I'm starting to hate her for that. But I feel abandoned by my dad, too. He never told me in person he was leaving, I had to find out by noticing a U-Haul in the driveway. And then a couple days ago he sends me a text saying he's leaving for good to go to an apartment, and that he's "five minutes away" and it was implied that I can visit him but he will not come and visit me, and he said he'll try and visit me when I go to college next year when he can. I just can't put into words how hurt I am. My 18th birthday is next week and it hurts me a lot that he didn't even wait a week for that. My mom doesn't work and hasn't since I was born, and I feel like I'm not going to have my house to come back to next year after college :( I got home from school today and everything was moved around, furniture was gone, my dads room was completely empty. I just don't know, I have a feeling I won't see him very often, especially next year because he's going to move to Florida to live with some women and her son. I feel like I've been thrown away and he's just moving on with his life like he doesn't have two kids who he's just leaving. How do I cope with this kind of sadness? I feel like I can never move on fro

Question: What should I do about my dad?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 08:47 PM PST

My dad is a dad sometimes. Other times, he's a mean stranger. He can be nice to me one minute and insult me the next. Apparently, this is a trait of emotional abusers. He calls me names when he's angry, then denies ever calling me them. And when he does admit to calling me them (a rare occurrence), he tells me that he was right. There were a few times when he said sorry, but the only reason he said that was because I literally ASKED him to and he was in an okay mood. There's some other **** that he does, but that'll make this too long. I don't know if I love him or hate him anymore. He insults me and is rude to me, but expects me to respect him.

Question: Why is my brother in law acting weird?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 07:39 PM PST

I was staying with my sister & my brother in law for a week. They're newly married. He acts odd around me sometimes other times normal. I've known him for five years but I'm just now getting to know him better. My sis and I are close though. Could he find me attractive? Just to be clear I don't like or want him and wouldn't do anything to mess up their marriage. Also I'm a lesbian (they don't know this). He'd often would walk around his house shirtless. Would make sexual jokes (not about me, in general) Touched my knee to get my attention Touched my butt several times as he brushed past me (maybe accidentally?) He would often talk to me normally then slow down his speech so it sounded sleepy sounding. There's awkward tension when we're alone (from him). He would look at me and smile I don't know how to describe it other than a vibe I get.

Question: Please let me know what is going on here? I need your behavioral intellect. Can you ID my friend s behavior? This feels so wrong! Help!!?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 07:19 PM PST

I took my friend and her mother out with my husband and I. As we were waiting in the line to gain entrance to the skating rink she began to make jokes about me, she said "your BOLD wearing that bright orange lipstick" I replied "its red." She then smirked at me. Her mother and her both looked at me after. Then her mother said "take a picture of us" so I said I ll take it! And my friend said "you can t take picture" so I said is it because I m short? (My friend & her mother are really tall) her mother turned to me and said "oh no" and turned back to her daughter quickly. So she smirked at me again. She then say "this is your 6th time here and YOU CAN T SKATE!" (With a chuckle) I told her "Yes I can, I was helping you the last time." In which she replied rather loudly saying "I DIDN T ASK YOU TO HELP ME!" My husband stepped in and said "isn t this your 4th time now? Can you skate?" And she replied "oh I m going to use the aid." As we drove home we started talking about our grades in school, she mentioned all the grades I had but said she had pluses to hers. Mine: A, A, A, B, she said she has A+, A+, A+, B+ (she forgot she told me she only took 3 classes). So I told her "wow we are doing good, we are in the same boat!" So she says "oh no I am doing alot more, i have internship, field study, etc.. AND I graduated with honors for my AA degree.

Question: Messaging my Nan?

Long story short. My mom fell out with my Nan (her mom) before I was born. I got kicked out over a year ago now, n I wanted to get in touch with my Nan. I have found her Facebook. But I was wondering what I should message her??? (I am 18 if that helps anything?🤷‍♂️)

Question: I am a quite person and it annoys my stepmom. How can I fix this so I won't get on her nerves anymore?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 06:53 PM PST

I am 15 years old I used to live with my mom. She used to tell me to shut up all the time. She was mad all the time and wanted me stay out of her way. My stepmom is different she wants to have conversations with me.and she wants to spend time with me. I know that I am getting on her my nerves. My stepmom thinks my mom was beating me because I am a very jumpy person and I get scared easy and because i won't let her and my dad hug me. But mom never hit me she just yelled and called me names. My dad and stepmom wants me to to be more out going. I want to fix this because I don't want to get my dad and stepmom to kicked me out. My mom got a new boyfriend and told my dad to come and get me because she did her part and now it was his turn. My mom told me that she wasn't my mother anymore and that no longer have a daughter.

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 05:40 PM PST

My cousin Patrick ruined my ps3 on April of last year and I played games that were very useful like grand theft auto 4 and 5 and he hurt me with that. Now it's ******* 2018 and I barley make it through the days because everything I hear, see, read etc means something negative in the end.

Question: What tips and advices would you give someone who wants to move out of their family home and live on their own, independently ?

I know this isnt an easy thing to do, especially being alone and takes it years to come to a stable position so i would really love some advice from experienced people who have gone through similar cases where your family wont support you on your choices.

Question: How to deal with in-laws who are not blatantly horrible but aren't that great?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 03:16 PM PST

My parents in law live an hour away from us but they never come down to visit us. It's always us visiting them. My husband and I recently noticed how one sided the relationship is and are getting put off by it. We are talking about kids in the near future, and we are realizing more and more that his parents are simply put, lame. I would not want them in my future children's lives if they are not committed and involved. To me it's better to have no relationship at all. What are your thoughts? Another example would be how they never call my husband or myself. We are always the ones to call and initiate.

Question: 50/50 Custody?

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 03:05 PM PST

If dad makes double what mom makes, can he get 50/50 custody of 13 year old female, 11 year old female and 6 year old male. I believe that the children should be with the mother, especially due to the girls being pre-teen and a teenager. What are my chances that he could be able to take them away from me half of the time. I feel he only wants to do it for Child Support Reasons.
