Posted: 15 Feb 2019 11:52 AM PST Yesterday I turned 22. I celbrated with my friends and family but I can't get past the thought that I've lived officially more days than my parents. I posted this question yesterday but I'm posting this again because I want some more advice on how to handle this. If you haven't read my question yesterday,bottomline is that as off yesterday I've officially lived more days than my brother who died in Iraq in spring 2007. He was a Marine. He was born in 1986 and passed in Iraq in 2007 at age 21. I feel guilty living a life he can't. Yesteday I put on a brave face and pretend it didn't bother me this realization,but it bothers e, I was the little sister,now I'm the "older". My parents miss him,I'm sure of this,but they never mention him,I guess because they kinda moved on from that. What should I do? I don't want them to get sad because of me realizing this. Thank you second line it should read " than my brother" |
Question: What could be added, Deleted, Changed etc? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 10:45 AM PST Sometimes, when in my room I can hear a voice saying that I'm stupid Verse 1 So alone, I can hear my thoughts right out the back All em real nigas know where Im at It's a problem worth solving, but know one seems to solve it. So Ima sit back, an recline in the silence Aye x2 People say silence is golden, not for me, go figure. The golden statement for me is hanging with my nigers going out with my G, hell I'll be playi ng Monopoly with my family just cuase it keeps me at peace Hate the way I think, Hate the way I feel, if push comes to shove I won't hesitate to kill, yo everywhere I go, all I'm greated by is hoes, listen I want a real girl, not some sex hungry slut, I want someone to mess with and cuddle, someone who wouldn't mind m being in their bubble, All I want is a text on my phone, buy who am I kidding Me equals forever alone |
Question: Is my mom allowed to just unlock my bedroom door? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 10:21 AM PST I don't want my mom to just unlock my door. I lock the doors to the bathroom and my bedroom because I don't want people to just walk in. But my Mom always unlocks the door without even knocking first. I told her to please stop but she told me that I can have privacy when I'm 18. It makes me really uncomfortable that she does this. Is this rude or am I just overreacting? |
Question: My friend broke my phone and refuses to pay for it??? what do i do? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 09:18 AM PST so we were hanging out and i had my iphone and i was texting my crush and he asked who she is and i said she is my friend and he grabbed the phone and said "(my name) has a crush on you" so i grabbed it back and said STOP and he laughed and grabbed it back and through it across the room and it cracked and i SCREAMED What the HECK and told him to STOP!!!! and be stomped on it and smashed it more |
Question: How do I help my daughter with this problem? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 08:27 AM PST My 14 year old daughter is terrified of thunder and lighting, something we have often at our house. When we have thunder and lighting at night she will crawl in bed with her older brothers where she says she feels safe and secure. When the storm is over she goes back to her own bed. Her brothers really like her and are VERY protective of her. However they are afraid if she tells her friends what she does, they will accuse her brothers of incest, something they WOULD NEVER DO. Please give me some suggestions on how I should handle this. Do you think therapy would help her overcome her fears and if so how much does it cost. THANKS FOR ANY HELP. |
Posted: 15 Feb 2019 07:05 AM PST Is it illegal if my 21 year old step brother can take care of me while my stepmom and dad are on the road (they aren't home as much because of their job ) |

Question: Is it wrong to date my half brother's son? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 04:54 AM PST I'm 19 and my half brother is 45. We both share the same father. His son is 21. We both like each other. |
Question: Am I wrong for telling him this? Posted: 15 Feb 2019 01:43 AM PST So my boyfriends parents canceled their internet subscription as a punishment because their 14 year old's not doing well in school and does not do chores around the house. The thing is they're not persistent with their punishments (ever). And now he's coming over every weekend and maybe twice on school nights (his parents just drop him off). I have told him he's only allowed to come over on weekends and on days there's no school and to listen to his parents but I guess that just goes out the other ear. I have voiced it to my boyfriend and he agrees but tells me that I shouldnt be telling him (the brother) anything bc it seems as if I'm trying to parent him (which I'm not). I would just like my home to myself and not worry about watching over/feeding/hosting a 14 yr old while also caring for my one year old (mind you he'll play on his PlayStation for up to 5-8hrs a day). I don't want to make his family not feel welcomed bc I really do love them and I love their occasional visits but 3-4 times a week is a little to much for me . Am I wrong for asking my boyfriend to tell his brother and parents he's only allowed to play video games at our house on the weekend. (If it we're up to me I wouldn't let him play due to his grades being terrible and him not listening to his parents but I really don't have a say in that). (Sometimes he tries to spend the night so he could play longer or play as soon as he wakes up. And sometimes he does) |

Question: How do you handle living in a toxic family? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 09:54 PM PST My parents fight every single day. My mom is the definition of negativity, her thinking is absolutely negative and all she does is abuse everyone in the house (including my two dogs who have no clue what's happening). She abuses my dad like he's a doll with no feelings. My dad removes that on me, my younger brother and the dogs. How do you handle living with such an environment? I cannot move out yet as in this family living alone is a "very bad" thing to do. |
Question: Why is my mom stupid? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 09:17 PM PST Last Christmas, my mom bought me a few clothes and a coat. The problem is they're too big for me. My mom bought everything in medium and large sizes. My size is an extra, extra small. I have s very thin build. When I confronted her on it, she had no emotion and didn't care. She accused me of being ungrateful. I called her a dumb b****. Were my actions justified? |
Question: Why am I screwed up? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 07:22 PM PST I know others have it worse.I just need help pin pointing where I got so screwed up. Well off family. Moms a surgeon, dad is a well know business man. They divorced when I was five, my dad moved out. My mom worked a lot when I was small and I went through a lot of nanny's, but she always loved me. When I was in first grade I moved to the city and had a new step dad and step sister as well as little sister. I saw my dad sometime, but less often. I hated the city at first (I have always hated change) but I got used to it. Third grade things started going downhill more. I moved to a new school and was very shy. I was an outcast and for the next few years (until sixth grade) I only had one real friend. My dad found a girl, mom got married (without telling me). I flailed in school. Kids treated me like I was an idiot, avoiding me and wincing when I was on their team. Mom was always stressed from working over night and fought (loudly and often) with my step dad, who is a good person. In sixth grade I had a friend named Hana who called me a ***** a lot. She told me the only reason anyone liked me was because I rarely spoke. I also had many horse riding teachers who yelled at me constantly. My dad cheated. I realized I was gay. 9th grade, I became an overachiever, anxiety, depression, self harm, therapy. Everything's moving so fast. I don't understand, nothing TERRIBLE happened in my childhood but I'm a cold mean and terribly sad person, and I'm a drag to my family. |

Question: Why are kids so rude and mean? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:51 PM PST Were I live, the kids at my neighborhood are very rude. They keep calling my mom stupid because she has a disability and she can't speak proper English without help. They bully my dad and call him ugly and call him names. These kids stalks me where I live and they start yelling at me. Making fun of me calling me names and such. I don't know what to do about it. These kids keeps telling me to take my own life and saying nobody likes me and say that I'm very ugly. What shall I do about this? |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:50 PM PST This year's will be a once every ten years event so not annual. I have a smaller one every year with about 35 and that's more a party. The big reunion is this year, 235 invited so far, and it would be another 5-10 years before we would do it again. This is once in a lifetime it feels. If I fall ill like my sister just did I fear I would be utterly devastated with disappointment to miss it. |
Question: How to word email to nasty sis in law? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:47 PM PST I already don't speak to her, don't even want to acknowledge when she's in the room with me. She's a fake suck up who thinks she's better than everyone else. I see through her BS and want nothing to do with her. I want her and her kids away from my kids. One of my kids has depression and anxiety and both her and her son mock him, make fun of him, right in front of him. We went on a big family trip and all they did was make fun of him and be rude to his siblings. I don't want them around my kids anymore. I don't want him coming to my house. They can see each other at holidays and this family trip, but otherwise out of our lives. How can I word the email?? |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:43 PM PST Hello, This is my last hope to find help for my teen sister (13). Not sure where else to look for facilities that will help her be part of our family again. My sister is extremely manipulative and has no respect for authority. She will say and do whatever necessary to get her way. She has had CPS called multiple times with false claims. My mother and I worry about her future. With the way things are going she WILL get herself put in jail. Thankfully she is not into drugs and has no criminal record, but being a young teen, there is alot of reasons we fear for the worst. Currently she has been in a residential treatment facility for over 5 months. Her outlook on authority has not changed. She is the type of child that when told she will have all her benefits taken away... She will look you dead in the eye and go "Fine, take it, I don't care, I'll just play with my thumbs, you can't take those." - actual quote from her when she was 5 yrs old. So now my family is at our breaking point. Residential Treatment has been the final straw to hopefully have her understand that she needs to listen to authority and do what is asked of her without getting the cops involved.... but nothing is working. We need a solution. I'm close to perhaps even calling Dr.Phil for help.. Her manipulative tendencies turn "Therapeutic Treatment" into a game... Any suggestions, military schools, boot camps, or treatment options in Minnesota or close by to hopefully turn her around would be great.. Thank You. |
Question: Why am I being judged by my mother ? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:38 PM PST I'm a 30 year old female raising 2 girls . The father (ex) is very involved and financially stable . He has helped me by allowing our daughter to stay with him when I was going through tough times . He recently planned a road trip for our daughter and him . He asked and I approved but was a little skeptical about the weather . He's now had her for a month and says they hadn't left for vacation due to the snow, but after it clears, they are leaving . I've still made efforts to call our daughter (5 years old ) and they are leaving next week for the vacation . Since I didn't have a father growing up , no opportunities to go on vacations and have cousins and a grandma , I make sure that my 5 year old has that and doesn't get bored with me since I don't have anything to offer her except love :( My mother puts me down by making it seem as if I don't want my 5 year old when really I want her to have the best of both worlds . I don't want my daughter bored with me since i don't have much of anything like money and I'm also caring for a newborn at the same time . My daughter is usually with me Monday through Friday and dad has her every weekend. How can I not allow my mom to make me feel like a sh*t mother ...or should I? |

Question: How do I get my parents to not worry about me hanging out with an older person? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 06:03 PM PST I'm a 16 year old girl and my friend is 22, which is why my parents have concerns about this girl being near me. They told me that most young women who are 22 years old get into activities that high school students shouldn't do. I don't do any of the potentially dangerous things they've mentioned (never have I ever done drugs, alcohol, sex, or attended certain parties). They're still worried about me just because she is 6 years older than me. My parents explained that even if she's a good person, a healthy 22 year old usually does experiment with those things whether we like it or not. That if she's not ready to do it now, she'll probably try it later on in life before I do. Also that she can put me at risk of other adults who don't have good mindsets, etc. as well as encourage me to do inappropriate things with her. |
Question: How do I help my grandmother see the errors in her parenting ways? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 05:30 PM PST Hello. A little background context: My mother died about a year ago and my little brother and I are now under her custody. However, I don t think it s the best living situation, and I would like some help on this. Whenever I do something, my grandmother berates me for it. Whenever I piss her off, she reacts with excessive violence for the situation. Ex, spitting on me multiple times, punching me, throwing water on me. (Not just a pop on the mouth / back of the head etc) I try to reason with her and she does nothing to attempt to fix our living situation. She constantly insults me daily, ridiculing me and calling me worthless. She has also threatened me with a knife once. I would like our family situation to get better, but whenever I bring up the fact that I m unsatisfied in the household, she shuts me up almost immediately. Any advice? i forgot to add this: this has been going on ever since my mother died, and the violence and insults have gotten progressively worse. i cant cry around her because whenever i do, she insults me for it. whenever i talk to her about my issues, she uses what i say against me later on. she also refuses to believe that i have mental issues that i have been professionally diagnosed on, so i do not get treated for them |
Question: What’s wrong with me? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 04:58 PM PST I'm 15 and I'm just so so sick of life, I am a female and every time I mention anything to my mother it's all down to 'hormones' as she says . Every single time something goes wrong I'm thinking to myself that I can't wait to kill myself . My dad is an alcoholic and he has been emotionally abusive to me for my whole life. He embarrasses me as he's drunk 24/7 and he's even drinking in the mornings. My mother is constantly at work or when she's off she's drinking or she goes to her friends house . I feel so disconnected to everyone and everything . I think to myself how am I alive right now and I just contemplate my existence. I feel as if I'm not alive. My brother is also 21 and he's very emotionally disconnected from everyone . I can tell he's really depressed and I feel as if he might kill himself . My dad is unemployed. My mother' and father are constantly fighting and I'm just sick of everything and everyone. Boys seem to like me but I feel fat and ugly all the time. I feel as if they are not in there right minds liking me .i also can not cry and idk what to do I'm just not in touch with my emotions if you can please reply to this I know I look like I'm complaining so much but I just don't know what to do anymore sorry. |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 04:32 PM PST My sister is upset because she's worried about her boyfriend she hasn't seen or heard from him in a few months. He didn't even call or ask her out on Valentine's Day she's worried he's cheating on her again. I gave her a hug because she was sad also I'm her older brother. Is it wrong to hug her ? |

Question: Why are there so many retarded people in my family? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 03:06 PM PST My grandma had 9 kids 6 daughters 3 boys, out of all those kids my mom and 1 uncle are the only ones that have the mental capacity to maintain employment. Uncle is a truck driver, mom is an assistant teacher. all the rest are in ISI and welfare because they are either mentally retarded or the laziest bums I've ever seen.

Question: Nicest way to address daughter's weight gain? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 12:54 PM PST She's 14 and for I'd say the last 7 or 8 months, over 200, she has been putting on a lot of weight, there's been a lot of going to get food with friends, snacking, etc. Regrettably I figured, " she'll recognize the problem, she'll fix it, it's fine", but she hasn't and now it's becoming very concerning how big she's getting, how out of shape she is, how snug her clothes are getting. I don't want to offend her or make her feel bad about it, but I also want her to want to get healthy. How can I word it? |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 12:31 PM PST Today I'm turning 22. I just realized that ad of today I've lived more days than my brother,who passed in Iraq in 2007. He was a Marine,he was born in 1986 and was killed in action in Iraq in spring 2007 at age 21. Tonight my parents and some friends will celebrate my birthday with me. I'm in my room right now,my parents are not at home now. I've been crying for at least 10 minutes. Even right now as I type.I feel guilty living a life he can't. When he died I was 10. I dont' wanna ruin my parents day by the fact I realized this. They moved on from that but even though they never mention him I'm sure they miss him like I do. I was excited this morning when I woke up,then I passed by my brother's picture in my room and this thought hit me. Advice? |
Question: Parents & I fight about politics? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 10:42 AM PST They're both Republicans( thankfully they can sometimes admit that Trump does/says dumb stuff) whereas I opt more for the democratic side( we have our flaws as well) and it's causing riffs to where what should be pleasant phone calls or visits result in arguments and whatnot. I don't think that simply " not discussing it" is an option because it's always brought up from them, " oh did you see the rally/press conference. Here's what he said." Even my older sister is just like, " they're disconnected, just nod, say, " yep", and wait until the topic changes." I'm more leaning towards just putting my foot in the dirt, telling them we have different ideas, it's fine, nobody is going to change, and I'd prefer to avoid that topic. Should I do that? |
Question: Would it be worth asking my brothers girlfriend to move her shoes? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 09:54 AM PST My brother, and I own a house and shes living with us. We've never been fond of eatchother. I have certain rules around the house that she doesnt like. Anyway. She leaves her shoes around the door. Its added up to six pairs of shoes. It's just makes things look cluttered. I know if I say something, than she will move them, but than she will go complain to my brother, and he hates when we dont get along. |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 09:36 AM PST My sister got pregnant at 19 years old and moved out with her boyfriend and ever since they've struggled to manage on their own. They got into a car accident recently and it kind of threw a wrench in what they had going for themselves. But anyways, they ended up needing to get a used car and It has a lot of problems- first it was the battery that my mom paid for and now they need to get the tags updated at the DMV and they need a new alternator. The problem is they're broke and my dad only sent them $200 to help. I currently have $700 in Amazon gift cards and I was planning on getting a newer Canon camera to start a YouTube channel. Now I'm conflicted because I saw amazon has Jiffy Lube gift cards which would be able to help cover the cost of them getting a new alternator- in hopes that that's the last thing wrong with that car. I'm kind of bummed out because I had plans for myself and I feel like they're being ruined if I were to help her but yeah I just want to know if you think I should contribute $200 |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 09:21 AM PST I live in FL and she lives in WI. Don't get me wrong I love dogs but my mom's love bear is clumsy and misbehaved and I have a lot of breakables and plush toys, I have a large 40 gallon goldfish tub in the living room and I am afraid he will drink out of it. My mom insists on bringing the dog and isn't open to compromise. I haven't seen her in 5 years and really want to see her. I don't have any money to fly anywhere so I don't have an option to fly and see her. Also my husband owns the house and he is very uncomfortable with the dog. The dog weighs 80 pounds, My mom said she won't come if she can't bring her dog? What do I do? (photo is my goldfish tub) |

Question: My brother is always in his computer? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 05:50 AM PST Obviously I'm not my brothers parent but his hobby is interfering with our dog. Our dog needs to taken out every two hours and fed twice a day. While I'm home it's always done. When I'm at work after school, he sits on his computer and "forgets the time" and never takes him out. I feel like crap when I get home to see my dog has used his puppy pad (that he shouldn't have anyway) because my brother didn't take him out. I made a chart for my brother to check off when the dog goes out but we shouldn't even have the chart. He's 15 he should know what time to take him out. I've talked to my mom and she just agreed he should be off the computer but doesn't do anything about it. He also never goes out. When we all go out to eat or go to the movies as a family,he stays home on his computer. I know this is the parents job and i can't parent him but is there any way to make this easier? I care for my brother and I don't want him to get behind school and get lazy because of this. Does anyone else have this problem? |
Posted: 14 Feb 2019 04:29 AM PST My brother smokes weed, cigarettes, and drinks. He's an alcoholic. When he drinks, he becomes a total dick. My dad had various mental problems, and killed himself in 2009. I'm pretty sure my brother has all of the characteristics that my dad had. My brother constantly talks to himself if he's mad. He'll even yell at himself if he's mad enough. He's completely delusional about the real world, and he tortures me and my mom. He's extremely mentally abusive and this is making my mom send me to my aunt's house for a month so that I can get away from him. But my mom will have to stay here with him. My brother steals from stores, but he's only been caught like twice. I'm 14 and I have depression so living here is destroying my health and sanity. I'm getting terrible grades in school because I can't focus. I don't have a door so whenever my brother hits his bong, it goes immediately into my room. He's on probation, but his probation officer hasn't responded to one call or email my mom has sent him. We don't know what to do anymore. No rehab or institution will take him because he has to agree to it. He doesn't care about anybody but himself, and he's ruining me and my mom's life. I'm begging for help. How can I get him to go to jail or to a facility? |

Question: Dad obsessed with Santa Claus? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 01:42 AM PST My dad has always realy liked Santa since I can remember. He has pictures of him with santa all over the house. In his room are a bunch of Santa toys and big old picture on the wall of Saint Nicholas (I learned about him in church), I asked him about this once buy he ignored the question and yelled at me for not takeing the trash out but I dont remember him asking. He threw the trash bin in my room later and threatened to take my switch away if I ignored him again and called me trash child. Hes called me this before and I tought it was a cool nickname so my friends call me that now. My older sister who is his real daughter keeps telling me that he started acting that way since he adopted me saying I was forced and made him crazy. My great grandma used to tell me that he wanted to adopt me after she found me at the doors of church and that because my sisters smart dosent make her right and my dad has always been that way. One time he had a man dressed as santa come to my house and open presents in his room. This was suring summer break and I wasent allowed to say hi to him but he left me a gift and it was Breath of the wild for wii u, I dont have one but was thankful anyways. Does my dad have a problom I should worry about or is he ok? I forgot to say that he dosent even like Christmas that much. Only gets a Tree and dosent let me leave cookies and milk for santa because he will. |
Question: How do i tell my sister to stop using my stuff and Get her own stuff? Posted: 14 Feb 2019 12:38 AM PST She wears my clothes, my deodorant, tampons, hair care, everything. Shes like 30, with a higher paying job than me, but she doesn t buy her own ****!!! how do I stop this. |
Question: Should I let my daughter hang out with a kid who’s in foster care? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 11:54 PM PST I found out that her friend is a foster child. My concern is that I don't what she's been through but I see signs of mental illness in her. Children from healthy families typically don't end up in the foster care system. Unfortunately, kids who were exposed to dysfunction, violence, drugs or some type of abuse in their lives are more likely to develop behavioural issues. As much as I want her to have empathy, I'd rather my own daughter not be exposed to these things at all. It's my job as a parent to keep her safe from immediate harm. |
Question: Do you think my family sounds harsh? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 09:10 PM PST Pretty much everyone in my family is an engineer or has a good job. Since I kind of struggle to become an engineer they basically treat me like I'm dumb all the time. For example, if I interview with an engineering company and don't get the job, they tell me that I'm not smart or can't do certain things well. |
Posted: 13 Feb 2019 08:58 PM PST I notice how the 16 year olds from my old high school who drank, partied and went to raves were mostly the younger siblings in their family. A lot of them had an older sibling in their early 20's, or had close cousins who were much older. I grew up in a neighborhood where these activities weren't common or accepted, so this particular group stood out. |
Question: Need advice about my brother in law? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 08:37 PM PST The other day my brother in law came over, I'm distant with him, he's 16.. just because every time my husband and I argue, his brother gets involved. So long story short.. I was cutting my 8 yrs old hair and then my husband said, clean that up. I didn't realize that the hair dropped on the floor. I said sorry and I said I will clean it ASAP. We weso this is where his brother plays into the argument. So, when my husband locked me out I then said, open door pls, it's cold. His brother just looked at me laughed and proceeded on his phone. So then, I knocked on my daughters door and she opened door for me. If I were to open door my kids would have opened for my husband. What I'm trying to say is, his brother, my brother in law said he doesn't want to be involved, then said that's why he didn't unlock the door. Then my other brother in law 20, living here in our garage, said it was my fault because I got the younger brother involved when all I said was pls open the door. When he didn't open door I said, thanks for not opening the door and then he yelled at me in my own house my husband right there and his brother said it's not his fault I mean he yelled very aggressive with me!! My point of view he should have opened the door. I'm so confused on why they treat me this way. If my kids saw me do that they would have opened door for my husband..My older brother in law said he wouldn't had opened it either because he wouldn't be involved |
Question: Am I to soft or not hard enough? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 08:17 PM PST Okay so I am a manager at a retail business and and we have an employee who is late from time to time. She is our opener. She was almost 10 minutes lates recently and I said something to her about it and I tried to come off as being very nice and understanding. She is also a mother (she's not a single mother) and she told one of our other managers that it hard when you have keys. I can definitely understand her being late every now then but at times it does get frustrating for me seeing as how I am always there and ready to get going in the mornings she is a hard worker and she always shows up. Should I cut her some slack since she is a mother or is that no excuse? |

Question: How do I tell my parents this and get them to accept it? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:46 PM PST I am going vegetarian and will eventually be a vegan. My dad is a high school football coach and is always saying meat is good for us. I am going vegan for animals, I want no meat. Also youtube vloggers said vegans are healthier than carnivores |
Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:34 PM PST Only one of the 9 grandkids can see him and due to the travel involved and my step-grandmother does not want a lot of family there. We all will be at the funeral but in the meantime it is just the one grandson who travels with his Dad everywhere and is the closest grandchild. I feel jealous of the cousin and the three adult children with him (he has five adult children and two step-children). We all will go to the funeral but I feel jealous not to be there as he is dying. He is thought to have a week at the longest (stroke). |
Question: My mom is driving me nuts right now? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:19 PM PST i took ap macro with my school, a homeschool hybrid place, last semester. my mom was and still is really overprotective and paranoid. last semester she made me sit by her side and watch extra videos and do extra practice problems. well, its over, i got a 95 on the final exam, and a 98 in the class. anyways, today my mom went to watch some ap macro videos, and she's making notes on microsoft on her computer. i asked her what she's doing, and she said she's making notes for ap macro, so my sister can learn it. well, she can just wait 4 yrs and take it at that school we both go to. the school has limited staff, so we rotate history on 4 years, as well as ap. its a complete waste of her time to make those notes. also, she can't teach economics. i told her to just wait 4 yrs and let her take it at that school, but she got mad at me and said, "dont worry". also, they let her take ap exams and psat, act, etc. efore me, which, even though we're 2 yrs apart, makes me feel stupid, behind, and incompetent. i serve as assistant concertmaster at orchestra and quartermaster at trail life (a christian-based organization similar to bsa). i have taught myself to worry over everything and anticipate crabby adults |
Question: Why is the church population mostly seniors? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:18 PM PST Not many of this generation goes to church. It angers me. |
Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:04 PM PST My wife is very passionate about cooking, she wants to cook every single day even though she works full time. However, she never wants to do the dishes. She'll do them every blue moon but most of the time I'm left with a pile of dishes she's washed from all of the food she's cooked and she cooks a LOT of food, she cooks the kind of food you would see in restaurants so imagine the amount of dishes there is. She also wants to cook everything from scratch. Like instead of buying a bottle of salad dressing from the store she will make it from scratch which causes a lot of dishes to wash. I never cook, I don't even cook scrambled eggs because if there's cooking then there's dishes involved and honestly I'm just way too tired to worry about washing dishes after a long hard day of work. Not to discredit my wife my job but is more laborous than her retail job. Our daughter cooks the breakfast whenever she's off because I'm just way too tired to be bothered these days. If she doesn't cook breakfast then I just settle for drinking a pre-packaged bolthouse smoothie or just buy burger king. I told my wife she doesn't have to cook I'm fine with eating a burger from burger King or just buying a sub from subway but she insists she wants to cook. |
Question: Whats my father up to? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 04:02 PM PST Advice: this is a personal question and probably I should just go to a therapist... but ***** I have no money, so sorry for making you read this ****... When i was a child (like 8-10) my dad used to take me to school by car and while we was on the way him would make me those question of multiplication tables and whenever i answered wrong or took too long for a answer him would give me a reallly good pinch in the *** and try to force a answer or just answer it in advance. Today I have a really hard and unsolved relationship with him and i offen think if it may be because of some those disturbing little things him would do during my entire life... i am 24 years old now. Is it possible that I am just being too over dramatic? I just really feel insecure and uncomfortable around him |
Question: Am I right to disown and not love my brother who bullied me for years? Posted: 13 Feb 2019 03:55 PM PST For years and years he was horrible to me and has even broke my phone and roared abuse at me regularly and (make no mistake I'm very close with my dad) feel my dad has shown bias or just didn't do enough to have my back and as much as he denies it I can in my heart and soul think of countless examples to contradict his denial. Nowadays I don't speak to my brother he makes effort for me sometimes but I ignore him or show ignorance and like to show him I don't like him. My dad told me he gets upset when he tries saying hello to me on the street and I intentionally blank him. One time in a night club he was drunk and tried having a laugh with me and I had none of it so he got upset and tried hugging me but I shoved him off me and walked away which my mother was very unimpressed with. Nowadays my brother is horrible to my mother and I don't get involved becuase it's not my place and if I ever get angry with him it could come to blows and I am afraid of my anger taking over and inflicting a bad beating on him due to years of this ****. I feel sorry for my parents seeing as they're so good To me and are upset I want nothing to do with my brother but I feel its too hard to due to the damage done to me througkiut the years and how disgusted I get by how he speaks to my mother and how my dad seems to not discipline him at all. He's 26 and I'm 24. Who is right or wrong between the 4 of us ( me. Parents and brother) |
