I have gotten caught with a 19 year old, with him having a condom on and with me having clothes on. My parental came in and saw him crouched down beside my bed. The 19 year old isn't on trouble with the law because my parental knew the father. Anyways I don't want to be at home. I'm under 18. Female. I have really messed up my relationship with my father especially with what happened with the 19 year old which happened last week, stealing phones for social media, and lying in general. Well now my dad gets so mad, to where last year he belted me and left bruises. He calls it discipline and the bruises are gone now. Last night he slapped me and pretended that everything was okay. He gets mad easily and idk what do about it. Some say report it to the police but my father would tell the police what I've done and he would probably say that he's doing right-parenting or whatever. The only grandparents I have are HIS mom and dad and they say that it's up to my dad if i want to live over here. I just need advice and help with this. Today hasn't been a very merry Christmas, and he told me i ruined his Christmas. And i know I have. I've been doing my best with trying to do better since last week but still he blames me for stuff and when he finds out I'm innocent he doesn't even say sorry. What would happen if i take this to court and what would happen if I just run away and stay at a friend's house until I'm ready to go home?

I'm 14, and my dad gets mad at me a lot for the things ive done in the past. Lied, stole a phone, etc. And he disciplined me with a belt last year and left bruises on me. The bruises are gone now though. But now when he gets mad at me maybe for something I didn't do or something I wasn't supposed to do, he slaps me and shakes me around when he's yelling at me. People say I should go to the police and have him arrested or something, but hes the only parent I have. And I just want to get away from it all. The only grandparents I have are HIS mom and dad. And I'm not sure if they would even take me in.

I also changed my number. My family treat me like an outsider and my dad has said sime nasty things about me his only son. All they do is talk trash about me anyway.

I asked my brother if he knew how to save images from google directly to my galaxy s9+ so he asked to see my phone, and he obviously didnt know what he was doing, which was the impression I had when he asked for my phone. Anyway, he started looking through my pictures. There were pictures in really dont want anything to see. I was like "wait let me see it". He said "no, I'm trying to figure this out". So I just ripped it out of his hands. He walked away angry, and looked out the window. I went and said I'm sorry, but there were pictures I didnt want you too see. He said I shouldn't ask for his help if I didnt want it. I technically didnt ask for his help. I asked if he knew how to do it.

My parents have been divorced since I was 6 years old, my mother leaving my father for some weird guy who couldn t hold a job. Growing up with my brothers, we heard all sorts of hateful things about our Father on how he never loved us and left us for another family. After years of going to see him and never believing a word that came out of my mother s mouth, we were put into a situation where we had to go and live with our Father. He s provided more than my mom ever did, in terms of love and affection but also financially. I now have clothes that fit and am able to keep myself clean. After living here for 3 years, I can say that my father is the better parent of the two. My mother, apparently, spent years talking trash about my father and making up stories to hurt him, calling him a week after the divorce saying she wanted to get back together and laughing with her boyfrienf when he said he did too. My mother continues to talk constant trash about my father to friends and family and I m sick of it. This Christmas she spent the time we talked over text belittleing my father, and I want help on what to do. I want to call her out in front of our family when she starts on one of her tirades, but I m not sure I m brave enough / know what to say.

I hate my family. They never ask if I'm ok although it's obvious if I'm feeling sad or angry. They only want me when they need me to clean up or do work around the house, or when rent is due. They have no feelings for me. Why???

My Sister is the type of person who asks for things but if you ask her for anything she blows you off, ducks, dodges and avoids you. Its been four different occasions where she has done this. I've asked her for simple things for example, send me and address, and I won't hear from her for days and then she calls me like everything is good. My problem is I break my neck for her. She has called and asked for money on multiple occasions I send it. Last time I sent $300 that I still haven't gotten back. Yet she calls me and talks about her paycheck as if I'm not waiting for her to give this money back. I made it crystal clear it was a loan. That's not what has me pissed though. I called her yesterday and asked could she send me $20 cause I was broke and my kid was sick, vomiting, running a fever. I was out of Tylenol and needed a thermometer. My husband was at work and couldn't bring money or the items. She says yeah let me see what I can do. I have money. She didn't call me back at all that day so I sat waiting until 6:00 in the evening with my daughter, throwing up, until my husband came. I texted my Sister and asked what happened and let her know I didn't appreciate her actions. She apologizes and says sorry, I have no good excuse. I should have called you back. I stopped answering her calls and then I blocked her. My feelings are hurt and I'm angry. Am I being petty?

my aunts throwing a party but the last time i saw her she was all judgemental of me and was so dissapointed at me for not having a job i got no love from anyone and the last time i saw my uncle i was working at burger king and he asked my dad if hes gonna put me in the military, like i dont have the heart to go back into an environement that i know is hurtful to me or that im scared of

Too make matters worse, I bought my mom a gift and got nothing in return. How do I cope?

we were suppose to go to his moms house for christmas eve around 9pm with our little baby who is almost 11m but around noon we had a bit of a fight so I had told him to just go by himself and HE said he will be back at 11pm or 12am midnight. It hits 1am and he still not here then 2am still not here and its almost about to be 5am and he is not here! i am guessing he is sleeping at his moms today which i am pissed because we have a baby together and i feel like his mom is more important mind you right now is CHRISTMAS! We couldnt get anything for our baby because we spent 10 of his nieces presents and we couldnt get our little one 😑 i Know that he doesn't care but i wanted to buy him and couldnt since i stopped working we are in budget. Its my baby 1st yr and i am so disappointed in his dad should i leave him?

I am dating this girl who has a cocky/rude personality that has insulted me a couple times in front of their family. A month ago, they invited me to a road trip ONLY if I pay myself for everything. NOTE that I have helped them numerous times, bought their family food, etc. It hurts so much that they invited their cousins and payed for them. I ended up not going because I didn't have the money at the time. However for Christmas, I got my paycheck, got each and every of her family member (mom, dad, 2 sons, 1 younger daughter, and girlfriend) gifts for about $20+. I only got one present from their cousin that is visiting just for a couple days but honestly I expected something in return from my gf's family... At least a card...? Am I being selfish and if not, what can I do...? I just don't feel accepted at all by them.

Merry Christmas to everyone who answers at 3:15 in the ******* MORNING! My aunt is sooooo annoying when she's drunk , My boyfriend and I are trying to enjoy Christmas right now (we're usually up this late smoking and talking) so anyway i live with his family and everyone in the house is sleeping , Out of nowhere my phone rings and it's my aunt she called me twice already.. I live in NJ btw. So when my aunt gets drunk she can say things that really hurt and she gossips and talks about me a lot. That's kind of the reason why I moved to NJ is to get away from her and the rest of my family because their fake and they put on a lot of fake *** faces and fronts (that's a whole nother story) so anyway I put her on my blocked list and need I remind you she has my boyfriends number as well and his moms number because before I moved she told me she wants to keep "Tabs on me and him" why idk , We're both grown I'm 25 and he's 23. I'm not answering my phone and she keeps saying "if you don't pick up I'm gunna be forced to call his mother" okay his mother is very hard working and she doesn't have time to sit around and listen to that BS because she doesn't know her like that and besides it would piss me off a whole lot more and embarrasse me. Am I wrong for blocking her?

My mom says she can't find any dates. She has been on a date site but she says that men always ask if she lives alone and she doesnt. She lives with me (her 26 year old daughter), my brother who is 24, my other brother who is 17 and her ex husband (our dad). Her and my dad our exes but she had to move in for financial difficulties. She always says that she cant get any dates because we, her kids, live at home. I dont really see it that way as we all live together under one roof. She has no money of her own so I told her it would be the same situation if I were to live in my own place with her. She always says no it would not be. What should I do about this situation? She blames her life on us a lot and would greatly appreciate advice on this.

I grew up in an abusive household. We dreaded holidays cause that meant time away from school where at least we had a reprieve. But the holidays just made our mother meaner. invariably, by the end of Christmas day, all of us were crying, and at least one of us had some type of injury. After I became an adult, I didnt celebrate the holidays. I had no happy memories. Then I got married. That first Christmas was wonderful, though we had no money, we still found a way to celebrate. that first Christmas was during the "honeymoon Phase" of out marriage. I then went through 10 years of physical, mental, and emotional abuse. And again..the holidays were Hell. I left him in 1999. The man I am with now has never hit me. but the past few years, things have steadily deteriorated. Holidays again. seem to be the center of the worst of it. This morning, well, yesterday morning, I was up early and wanted to make cookies. I was making them to give out to our family and friends. when he got up, I jokingly said "Help, I made too many!" he glared at me and snapped "shut up!" and stormed out. I was stunned and stood there with my mouth open for a moment before bursting into tears. He continued to slam things in the house like he was extremely angry at me. I have not done any thing. I have been afraid to speak to him. and it is now after 2 am, and i have still not spoken to him. I feel that our Christmas is ruined..yet again

A while back, a series of life events that were so important that I don't know what I was doing before all. In One Day, my life changed forever and I found something well devoting my entire life to. I want to fully commit to my work, and so I never plan to get married or have kids. Is this selfish of me? Edit**** A while back, a series of life events happened to me. These events were so important to me, I don't even know what I was doing before all. In One Day, my life changed forever and I found something well worth devoting my entire life to.

Not going to go into much details for personal reasons I leant my Forster parnet a sum of money between 1k-2k pounds, promised I'd get it back in 2-3months, anyway 4/5 years pass and still haven't received anything Over 18 when this happened Was told not to tell other Forster parent but I don't know what to do Honestly I don't need the money but it's still money at the end of the day, and here's my issue, I have a good relationship with both Forster parents, and I know if I tell the other parent I'd probably get it back but I feel it's going to cause issues and a lot of hassle. Like I feel like it would end the relationship or leave it on bad terms which I don't want. I have asked for money back of multiple occasions but as you can see nothing yet, I'm just so confused at the minute I just feel like no matter what I do I'll get no benefit out of it, Like I ask or tell the other parnet it may cause too many issues and get the money back or I say nothing and never get the money back and pretend nothing happened which I kinda doing over the last 4/5 years but I just can't stop thinking about the whole issue

I have known this girl for a few years and early on she tried to get my attention and acted flirty. Like she blushed around me and got red couldnt look me in the eyes. She couldnt even say hi first and when I did first blushd and smiled. She got giggly and laughed at all my jokes. Found any excuse to be around me, get close as possible and talk to me. Could only approach me with her friend besides her. Her friend couldn't talk to me. Well her bFF looked at her when I entered a room and said her name. Her BFF helped her approach me. She stared @ me in school. A teacher she talked to told me she talked about me. Well her friends stare at me when they see me around town. Then like family members noticed me like her cousins and they stare at me. I see her around town he places herself in spots she can c me and Ill see her.Well her and her mom have done mean stuff on my fb like they unliked a picture announcing my dads death when I blew her off. Then her mom removed my dad on facebook. Shes done dumb stuff like that. Well I go to the same college as her and she saw me in a class that is her next class. She walked in and saw me then sat down and stared at me for a few seconds. She showed up on time but after that. She shows up 30 minutes early before everyone else and then walk by the room looking in and then walks by the door when its open. She walks by at least 4x then stands in the doorway and then waits outside for when I walk out. She doesnt have her friends to help her.

Bought a couple of my family members presents online but because of the busy holidays, there are shipping delays. Im still going to wrap a picture of the gifts or something of the sort and I'd love to add a cute comment. Any ideas?

A decade ago, we had a parent pass away. The family split because everyone is control freaks and wants everyone else to stop their lives to do what the other wants. We have tried to stay in touch through christmas, birthday, and anniversary cards, but it just fuels the fire. How many of you deal with family that no longer speaks to each other over stupid stuff?

I hate that they stay over and act like they live in my house. My mom says nothing. I want to tell them off and say they can't stay here because they don't live here. They should go home. What can I do?

Im a 13 year old girl, I recently wanted to get into sports. My gym coaches recommended Basketball and Football however i dont know how to play either. My mom used to play basketball when she was younger until she dislocated her knee, shes rarely home, working all the time. I dont have my dad, hes running from the cops up north, acting as if im not family. I go through a lot and I feel like Football can help me release stress. Ive been wanting to tryout but i dont want to go to tryouts thinking Im the only one who doesnt know how to play.

I am a big fan of our local sports team. I go to every game I can but I can afford only the cheapest seats. One day at a game, I heard someone say "Hello Ann". I turned around and it was John, my sister's ex husband. We talked briefly and he invited him to join him in his luxury box and I gladly accepted. I had never been a luxury box but they are GREAT. I really enjoyed the game a lot more from his box. He told me that any time I was at a game to come by his box and join him in watching the game. I did and each time I had a great time at the game. He had refreshments brought to his luxury box and we just talked. I had a wonderful time. He was the nicest person ever, very polite and never hit on me. We never talked about my sister, his ex. Sometimes his friends would join us in his box. They were all very nice to me and this just made it more fun. I have never told my sister about this so as not to cause her and me any problems. I don't know many details about their divorce. She never says anything bad about him at family gatherings. Should I tell her or is it none of her business as they are no longer married? Please tell me what I should do. Thanks.

So for Christmas my dad made a deal, good grades I can get whatever I want. So I got the good grades he asked for and in return I asked for a CERTAIN pair of shoes. Comes today he told me the shoes sold out, so at that point I'm like that's okay, fine. He decides to go get this other pair of shoe I DIDNT ASK FOR. He tells me he's going to give me that and I told him no I don't want the pair of shoes he offered to me. In return he calls me ungrateful, I want to know how am I ungrateful in that situation? That's like giving a cancer patient some shampoo and expecting them to be grateful, or if you smoke NEWPORT cigarettes and someone gives you CAMEL cigerrates and expect you to be satisfied. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT.

My brother recently converted to Catholicism about six years ago before he married his wife (who was Catholic). From what my brother has told me, he says he's a traditional Catholic who belongs to a traditional Catholic organization called the 'SSPX' that opposes the modern changes in the Catholic Church. Both my brother and his wife do not practice birth control at all, believing that they'll have as many kids as God wills. Right now my brothers wife is pregnant with kid number six ... and my family is giving him a lot of grief for having another kid. Yeah my brother and his family are struggling ... but I do have to say, his family always look so happy and loving every time I see them. They really are the happiest family I've ever seen. Though why do my parents give my brother a really hard time about the number of children they have?
