I am a guy in my junior year in college. I live at home with my 3 younger sisters. I really like them and I am VERY protective of them. The have developed into beautiful young women. We are very close. They often come in my room for homework help or to talk about what their boyfriends want to do with them. You can be sure I have educated them on birth control to protect them. They usually wear what ever they feel like when they come in my room which is sometimes nothing. I am OK with that as I am not into incest in any way. I need to make sure they don't dress that way around other people. Any suggestions how I can tell them it is OK to dress that way with me but not other people. Thanks for any advice you can give me.

My sister is having a baby in July she's pregnant at 15 she'll be 16 in April. Her baby's father is twice her age he's my age he's 41 she said when she's 16 she's gonna marry him. She's had sex with him 3 times she said 3rd time she got pregnant she didn't think it happen. She's been a bad girl acting out since our parents died I been in charge of her also I can't deal with her I got 2 kids of my own soon to be 3. I don't know wether to put him in prison or let them get married I hate him he and his friend are my worst enemies I hate him for this even more now. I hate him so much but she really loves him I don't know what to do with her. I was gonna give her the sex talk when she was 16 but it's too late now I should have done it when she was 10-13. She wants to marry him so bad. How can I help her ? Should I let them get married ?

My mom is around 70 and I am in my mid 30s. My grandma is nearly 100 and is still very bossy and combative. I had to be rushed to the hospital recently for an emergency and just got out. She called her mother and "reported me" that I had "dropped my kid off without rhyme or reason". She lied because she had told me she would watch my preteen while I went into the hospital and when I offered to pick him back up and see if he could go to the hospital with me, she said no, keep him here he cant go. My grandma called me and chewed me out. Why does my mom do this and why does my grandma NOT LEARN her lesson that when she calls people up and acts like the family judge someone is going to get onto her? Since i was a child, my mom would call her mother and report me. If I made a bad grade, grandma was called and I was chewed out. Sadly, this has not stopped. Grandma has also chastised my father in law, husband, etc.

Okay so basically my cousin gets very hostile over the smallest things she's 27 and has 2 kids but she becomes very hostile very easily today I asked for a pair of shoes that she stole from me she cussed me out called me every cuss word I just told her it wasn't a big deal then she threatened to beat me up and do witchcraft on me lmao on Christmas she tried fighting me because her daughter stole 10$ from me I told her she callled me a liar then she ended up fighting her brother for defending me

I am going to my boyfriends family party on his dads side this weekend and I'm not close with them as I am with his moms side. I usually sit alone or with his sisters and it just feels awkward at times. How can I make it more comfortable?

So last night my sister messaged me like at 11:00pm and this morning I opened the message but didn't reply.. 20 minutes later she said " leave me on read you stupid ***** go **** yourself" I didn't even do anything to her... and there's been plenty of times she doesn't reply to me but I never say this to her..

my daughter is 17 and in the 11th grade. She has a 21 year old boyfriend which i am fine with as long as he is treating her right. my daughter is happy with me as long as i say yes to everything . if i say no then we get into a huge argument every time. one days she wishes that she could be a kid again wihtout the stress and worries but then the next day she wants to be grown and independent. she calls me clingy because i want to spend time with her. im working on not trying to guilt trip her when it comes to her having her own life but of course its hard for me because shes still my little girl who i love spending time with

i'm a junior in highschool who works ONCE a week for four hours. my mom thinks i should be using this time to study for the sat and do schoolwork, otherwise i won't get into a good college. i've tried to tell her that i like having my own source of money that i'm responsible for but she says that that isn't relevant. i understand she is my mom so ultimately i have to listen to her, but it still is a bit annoying.

I'm 17. My dad recently got married to a woman I barely even know. My dad and I have a very close relationship and I see him maybe once a month. Every time I come to his house I want to spend time with him. She comes along every time my dad and I go out. This was BEFORE she moved in. In my city, you have to drive like an hour to get anywhere because of traffic. My dad and I would go to Walmart for groceries, and she would show up and make sure he's not spending too much money on me. It would be fine if she came along to get to know me, but she doesn't even speak to me outside of a hello. Not to mention she's 12 years older than I am. She hates my best friend. Of course I told my dad that I was confused as to why he let her say that when I wasn't talking to her. My dad got out of the car to talk, and she rolled the window down to listen. We got out of the car for a REASON. Whenever my dad and I got back into the car, she went off of me. She called me names, said I didn't act my age, called me ungrateful, etc. She knows nothing about how I talk to my dad, and it wasn't her place to try to correct me. My dad just let this happen and talked to me about it trying to get me to apologize. Both of them are coming to see me on Sunday and I want to address this with the both of them. I very much want to tell her off for how she's been treating me, but I'm sure there's a better way to get my point across. Thanks. (Of course there's more, but there's a word limit)

My 15 year old step sister is bulimic. I know this because I caught her throwing up yesterday and begged me not to tell anyone I never said that I was going to keep her secret. I know my mom is worried about my step sister. My step sister is a very private person and doesn't want anyone to know but I know that this danger. I know my step sister is going to be mad at me but i feel like I need to tell my mom. I am going to tell my mom. I love my step sister and her health is important too me and I know that my mom loves her too.

Well my dad always lets me go to my friends house for about 3 days but my dad is not with me right now so I have to ask my mum but the problem is she only allows me to go for only one day but my best friend dad offered if I wanna stay for another day so I called my mum and asked and she said no if your keep arguing I'm going to ban me and she said she was going to talk to my father for only one day sleep overs and I'm super pissed and I hate my mother so much I don't want her in my life at all right now

Long story short, I was a terrible teenage boy two years ago. But I'm better now, and I have no idea how to make her trust me again. She controls everything in my life at first I was ok with it because I knew she just wanted what was best for me but now is kind of a little annoying. I mean I am 19 and I am not allowed to go out. I just go to college back home I have to give her my phone, she checks who I called, what I did in the day, what I eat, if I'm excersising, if I took my pill. I would really like my social life back, how can I gain her trust?

My mum has always been a manipulative person. Even when I was little she would tell me to cry if I wanted something. Eg a few years ago when I was at uni, I failed an exam by 2 marks, my mum told me that I should speak to the coordinator and cry so she would give me a pass. Anyway, lately I've had a colleague being a b.tch to me at work and she's been stressing me out a lot but I'm reluctant to say anything because everyone thinks she's an angel. I was talking to my Mum about it and explained that if I was to tell anyone I'd start crying. She told me that's I good thing and I SHOULD cry. I ignored it but after she said it a few times I snapped and said "you've been telling me that for years, that's not the right way to handle things" she flew into a rage and screamed about how I have always had a bad opinion about her (she gave me bad opinions/memories from the time I was a baby...not really my fault). I calmly told her "please forget I said that I'm just upset and got snappy" - she's now ignoring me. Should I apologise or just go home?

My mother got angry and forbid me to go out when she is not home. I have two younger siblings and I can understand if they are babies, toddler, or under 16 but they are not they are 18 and 17 and I only went out for two minutes to get tissue paper for wrapping a present.

My sister said that what I have is a sh!t job for 25 hours a week. I told her that the fact of the matter is, is that I'm the only one in this whole apartment of ours, who has a job at all.. And what more do you want from somebody that the world said no to, for the past 16 years ? A great job ? You and I are both lucky that I f)ucking have a job, and I'm lucky to have kept this job... And in one more month give or take... I'll be eligible to use my Archways to Opportunity. Which is a RADICAL break from ALL my f)ucking history with jobs. I'm going there to work everyday, and doing a great job, and everybody there loves me, as far as a working relationship is concerned... I have no such a history behind me... I'm MAKING history for myself in my life. So what's your complaint ? Then she tells me to go f)uck myself. So I called the mental hospital back up, again just now... and I told them that my sister is making emotionally abusive phone calls. So now She's back in the padded time out room again. :P

I obsess over him I made fake accounts to pretend to be someone else and even bought likes and followers and he blocked them he reported me also and is avoiding me and uncomfortable I found his address and tried to go to his house and stalked and found his other info

I would love to have kiss my mom and daddy don't think I will be a great mom

I'm a 16 year old only child and I feel like my family is very toxic. My dad works everyday and when he's home he rarely talks to me or my mom. I use to think this was normal until I got older and saw how other dads were close with their families. My dad will just go out and not tell me or my mom and there have been multiple times where I have gone out with friends and my dad will come home and not even realize I was gone until I come home. My mom is the opposite. My mom is very clingy to me and always compares herself to me. She has horrible self confidence and openly talks about how she thinks I don't love her any more even though I try so hard. She is also scared of me leaving to the point where she talks about how she wishes I wouldn't grow up and how she doesn't want me to leave. I haven't been in a good mental state for years and this whole family thing is really taking its toll. Neither of my parents seem to realize how bad things can be. I know we should talk but they'll just say I'm over reacting and make me feel like I'm insane.

When I was 2 my dad went to jail so his friend wouldn't have to. He got out when I was 10. Only saw him twice after that he moved to Louisiana. My mother always asked him for financial help but he always promised but never kept to his work. One day my mom ask him for money since me and my little sister needed shoes. He said he wasn't gonna send nothing until my mom send us to where he is. My mother agreed but she wanted my grandma to go with us, since we really didn't know much about him or the family he was living with. We stopped talking but for about a year or two he was tried to contact me and my sister on social media. Should I give him a chance and talk to him, or even go visit him?

My mom constantly compares herself to me and says how she wishes she could be like me. My dad and her aren t close at all even though they are still married and I feel like she takes out her loneliness by hanging out with me. When I was younger we were very close (we still are) but now she works full time and I m 16 so I find it kind of weird to be around her all the time. She makes me feel weirdly uncomfortable. I love her but she guilt trips me all the time into feeling bad and doing stuff I would much rather not do. She always is like "oh I know you hate me now" or "I remember when you loved me" and it makes me so upset. I try so hard to show her I really care but its never enough. What should I do? How should I talk to her about it?

He's completely useless! He's been in Mexico claiming that he's been working to make money for my son and I when I don't receive anything and he's partying down there, moving place to place and job to job. I confront him about it, he denies it! Every time I avoid him, he starts calling me 20 million times and tries every way to get a hold of me. I tell him that he's a selfish prick and that I'm done, he replies with me saying " you're so cute" or totally disregards anything I say. I hate him!!!

I always suspected there is something going on. I am always ganged up upon in an argument. My mother and my siblings. They all think and see things as my mom does. They all also thrive under pressure, unlike me. I act alot like my dad. Unfortunately due to mom cheating, my dad left, tired of being yelled at. The same problem i currently have. I am easygoing, and also say things they way they are. Never hide the truth. Anyone, my mother is making my life hell difficult. Everytime i try having a discussion about my interests, or even her own interests, she turns me away pointing out that my interests are trash, or that i shouldnt worry about her life when i need to get my life under control first. Let me point out that im an A plus freshman. I never get into trouble, i stick to myself in school. All of my friends mothers always compliment me, saying i do so much around the house, and never talk back. Which is true. Every time my mother yells at me, i keep my mouth shut, and only say a sentence or two the whole argument. At the end, my mother never apologizes for taking her anger upon me, and will ignore me the whole week. Most cases, she will hit me, bruising. My siblings never have such big conflicts that my mother resorts to hitting them. And when they argue, they yell back, and hit her sometimes. Then my mother is the person apologizing. I recently found my mothers and fathers wedding papers, and i compared them to my birth date. I was concieved before marriage.

I have not seen or heard from my son since 2016. In 2016, he graduated from high school. I gave him money to purchase a laptop as a graduation gift. I never heard from him again. I believe my ex-wife is the reason for this separation. My son is an adult. Anyone here in a similar situation?

I am going to be going back to school for the first time in 2 years. It will be my junior year and I couldn't be any more nervous. You see, my past is filled with drama. So many unfortunate and embarrassing things have happened to me. Stuff I absolutely do not want anyone to know because it is extremely private and confidential. In fact, I had it so bad with all the terrible events in my life, I had to leave school in my freshman year to do homeschooling. I haven't set foot in a school since. My niece, who is 14, knows absolutely everything that has happened to me because my sister for some reason feels the need to tell her everything about me. My niece has embarrassed me countless times in the past. I don't hate her, but I honestly cannot stand her. I hate being around her and I hate it even more when I have to be with her and my friends. I am an introvert and am very shy. It's hard enough for me to make friends and when I do, I hate that she comes around and starts blabbering non-stop while I'm trying to have a nice conversation with them. And then she ALWAYS embarrasses me when I'm with them! It drives me insane. We recently moved to a new neighborhood to go to this new, fancy, high-class school. My niece isn't even zoned to the school, but my sister still wants to put her in it anyway. I want to go to this new place alone, where no one knows me, and no one can embarrass me any further than I have already been. What should I do?

I need opinions on something....ok if your mom curses whenever she wants is it right for her to feel disrespected and not like when other grown people (adult child, adult grandchild, co-workers, etc) curse in her presence...not cursing her out but just saying a curse word.....even when not talking to her (on the phone for example).....serious answers only please this is a serious question i need answers

he didnt want to do nnath, so when his dad asked hinn why, he said he was a visual person, then his dad said, "great. visualize being the only 45 yr old in 1st grade" do you think we should just keep students in 1st grade up until theyre 45

Yesterday, I went to a concert and they had a picture of the person on a poster where you can take pictures near it. There were so many people so my mom took a picture of my and my brother near it and then I took a picture of my mom and brother near it. I wanted to take a picture of me and my mom near it but didn't get to even after there were a lot of people but I feel bad. My mom and I took a selfie in our seats but we didnt take a picture together near the poster. Should I feel bad that I didn't?
