I went on a trip to Europe that my parents didn't want me to go on, and everything tuned out to be fine and they were worried about nothing. Now that I'm home They kicked me out and I'm homeless, I don't know what to do, I don't make enough money to live on my own

Since my mother died when I was 12, she hired close relatives & her friends who she thought was responsible to take over the trust fund she left for me until I turn legal age as stated by the will. Since age 12 to my 20's she has been a complete b*tch to me. She will not let me know exactly all that I have saved for me to where I have to dig, she tells lawyers and people things as if I am a child so they have there preconceptions of me that is negative, everything is a competition with her, she critizes my lifestyle since she live a much different life than I do, she downs me, and pretty much tries to hide things from me and be decisive. Of course my fear is her stealing from me before I can get my funds but my biggest issue is how she talks and treats me as if I'm lower than her & I GOT ALL THE MONEY! I am in no way conceited cause I do believe that it can all be taken away from you, but I feel as if it some type of jealously cause not to mention, she has a daughter who is the same age as me & May be upset since her daughter isn't well off as I am, but blame my hard working mother, not me! She threatens to quit and if she quits it will freeze my accounts & frankly I'm tired. I feel like she is trying to run me crazy. Also, I have lost a company that my mother has left me since she "sold" it since it was not making money, I have no idea what is being spunt, & I have been taken advantage of. Any advice?

I am 22 years old & I am pregnant with my 1st child. My child's father has a daughter who's mother is not in anyway allowing him to see his daughter and also has taken her out of state, blocked his number, & has not called him or provided him with any form of contact with her. As a new mother I hope to attempt to fill that void that he is missing with his 1st child, but I know I cannot do that. Should I worry that my child will be treated indifferently? Maybe favoritism issues? Also, I am pretty much alone, besides the help from my child's father. My mother died when I was a child & my father has done betraying things to me so we do not talk what so ever. No siblings & other family is so judgmental I want to keep them out my business. I haven't told anyone but my bfs family. His mother does not know because she can be ugly & it's like you have to catch her on a "good day" to get a good reaction out of her. What can I do to be at peace within myself? I feel like I don't want to tell anyone or spread the news until I'm showing of course. People are too judging & also I have been put on such a high expectations from people since my mother was so "great". I own my own home, own my vehicle, have a full time job, and am well off. My child's father doesn't have any of these but he makes money and saves it better than me. Have I put myself in a bad situation? Advice?

I have a sibling man and women who are against me they're try to attack me many times because in the past I was married to a guy from USA and I had a baby girl with him, And got divorced to him 6 years ago now he wants to see his daughter my brother sister said no he can't see her. I said he can see her and they wanted to attack me hurt me I'm so afraid for my life now. They want to hurt me need help

My parents have been separated the past 7 years, I'm 16 now. After a year or two I stopped talking to my dad and refused to speak to him for nearly 3 years,during this time I became very close with my mother. 2 years back I started talking to him again. He now has a girlfriend of his own who he has been with for 6 years and recently had a baby with her. I don't see him very often as he lives in another country and is always traveling so when we do see him we tend to make the most of it. He is also planning on moving even further away it is an eight hour flight and so we will see him even less. However I have recently been having many fights with my mother as she believes that I am just using her and that when it comes to me attending college I will leave and go live with my dad abroad. I have been wanting to attend college in the country he is planning on moving to for a while.I have not only been thinking about moving with him just so I can attend college there but also because of my home life. There is constant arguments going on that start small but will blow up way out of proportion, ending up with screaming and tears, I feel as though my mother is continuously trying to make us feel bad about when we go on holidays with my dad or go with him for a weekend, as she is left alone in the house. Honestly I just don't know what to do. I think I want to move with him but I don't want to leave my brothers and hurt my Mother, and I don't want to regret my decision. Any advice?

I'm 18 and my mom has decided to she can no longer put up living with me because of our differences. She told me that has decided for me to stop going to school and to just start working because to her, I'm not trying hard enough even though I've been busting my ***. I told her I was not going to allow her to make that decision for me, because in the end, it's my life that she is messing with. She got angry and said she needs me to move out ASAP. The thing is, I barely have any money in my bank account and don't have a great paying job. What can I do? I have a car, so I'm thinking I can stay in there while I find a place to stay, but that will only work if she lets me keep the car, since it's under her name. If not, I'm thinking of leaving school and working full-time until I have enough saved up to go back to school and pay rent. Any advice? I'm in college right now, if that's relevant...also, she said she would pay for me to live elsewhere but that she would decide where. However, I don't want her doing that because she can still easily threaten to stop paying for my housing if I don't do whatever she wants me to do, and I just don't want to run that risk or have that 'fear' over my shoulders. As far as her 'owing' me anything, I know she doesn't and that's why I don't want her paying for anything either.

I met him a couple months ago.. he went back to Germany. I miss him sooo much... I think I've fallen for him. I would love to move to Germany but I don't speak any German... and I might miss my family, though I want to be a flight attendant so I would be traveling a lot anyway... I'm about to graduate college... Should I just try to learn German..??

Yesterday my mom called me while I was at work because she said she really needed to talk. She called to tell me that the man that I've known as my dad is really not my dad, he was her best friend who stepped up while she was pregnant with me. She says my biological dad left when she was 2 months pregnant because he didn't want anything to do with having a kid. So the man I've know as my dad has done nothing but hurt me all these years so how could I be sad about missing a father that I've never had? She got upset with me because I don't care to meet my biological dad. My question is, why introduce your daughter to a man that you haven't heard from in 25 years. You don't know anything about him. He could potentially hurt me how the one I've known as my dad has hurt me. Any thoughts? I'm not sure even how to feel.

I'm a junior in high school right now. My parents are divorced so I live with my dad and stepmom while my mom lives in a different state. I am very close to my mom but with my dad its been hard to connect with him all my life. Anyways, since I'm close to graduating high school in the next year, hes been asking about my future. I don't want to go to college. I've been planning on going to a beauty school so I can do hair and stuff like that since its always been my passion. But my dad wasnt having that when I told him. He wants me to go to college and get a degree and said if I do hair I wont make any money and pretty much I'm just gonna fail in life if I don't go to college. Its been breaking my heart so much that my own dad doesn't approve. He still wont stop bringing it up and he just doesnt understand that college isnt for me. How do I ignore this and handle this pain?

My mom's boyfriend, who stays at home, showed me a DVD he bought on the street, which was porn, according to the cover. He went to the living room and played it. My mom came home from work and saw him in the living room. In his defense, he wasn't pleasuring himself, at least not that I know of. I was in another room, but I knew he was in there watching, and I saw my mom walk in there. Also, one day he did a "stroking" gesture in front of her while telling me that I need to get s girlfriend instead of doing "this." That made me very uncomfortable, but my mom reacted like I was being touchy and sensitive. Basically, he has no class. Regarding my mom being the breadwinner, she typed up his résumé and arranged interviews, to which he of course had no job after the fact. One day, he told someone at a family gathering what he does for a living, as my mom obviously told him to say that occupation because she's embarrassed by him. Of course, I am the bad guy according to my family. My aunt even asked me, "Are you and your stepdaddy getting along?", followed by "What do you call him?" She was obviously being a smart-a$$, as she knows I don't like him, but she does. But I told her I call him [his first name]. Therefore, I'm the black sheep, thanks to my mom hiding things about him and telling the family how mean I am to him. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother. But I hate how I'm automatically wrong in everyone's eyes.

My Dad recently passed away and when we viewed him at the "wake" and funeral I touched his arm and his hands and he was soft and barley stiff at all. My sister said his face was like that too. What would cause this? My grandmother passed away a couple of years ago and she was extremely stiff. Her hand was cuffed and we asked that they fix her hands (cause it looked creepy") and then he tried to and then said he couldn't because he was afraid he would break her fingers. please be kind on your comments. Its only been 5 weeks since he passed and my sister, my mother and I witnessed his traumatic passing.

She has a mortgage for her house it's all in her name and she pays it. But her parents live there they lost their house so she let them move in temporarily. But she told me her father is saying it's his house he can do whatever he wants. She asked him to behave he said to her anymore he will throw her out it's his house. Why should she move out when it's her house?

My son graduated from college last year, has no student loans and got hired right away making $60k/year. I got a text message on my birthday, wishing me a happy birthday. That's it. No phone call, no card, nothing else. My kid's birthday is coming up and he sent me a text, letting me know what he'd like for his birthday. He also announced that he'll come for a visit on his birthday. I am thinking about baking him a cake and wishing him a happy birthday, ignoring the gift request. How should I address the issue?

Literally everyone says that we look alike. Some even say that we look like twins. All answers are appreciated :-)

My paternal great grandmother had it in her pancreas and died. So did my paternal Aunt had it in her liver and died. So did my mom s cousin had it in her liver and died too. My mom s dad had it in his mouth and he lived. My Great Aunt Sally had it in her thyroid and she lived. My aunt Annette had it in her pancreas and she died. It is very prevalent in both sides of my family. Does that mean that it runs in the family? Is there I chance I will get it too?

This was last summer. The disappointment was huge. They backed out cause they decided to move to a smaller house so were busy. My mother makes HUGE promises and never acts on them and this trip was her idea. She never even apologized though my Dad seemed to feel bad about it. I forgive my Dad but not my mother.

She treats my step-father's family the same way though has softened some.

He is addicted to exercise and that is the only thing important to him in his life along with work. He is a hard worker when he wants to be and otherwise lazy. Anonymous: No he is just a bad man.

My stepdad has been married to my mom for a lot a decade, since i was around 11. I always felt he was a little too friendly with me, and that grew as I grew up. Howevre I tried to ignore cause in general I'm weary around people for no reason. Im 19 now and he just told me he thinks Im sexy on the drive home from dinner. I told him very clearly I didn't want to hear any of it and if thats how he's feeling, to keep on keeping it to himself. It makes me uncomfortable. When I was 14 he had me model for him while he took pictures. He must have taken over a hundred and he'd always do it when my mom was sleeping and would whisper as to not wake her up. He'd show me the picture and talk about how he liked "the curves of my body". He said that it was because he wanted to draw me as a birthday present for me mom- he still hasn't given her anything of it. I had felt pretty uncomfortable and told me mom, but she insisted that he's just a little friendly and socially awkward but now that I know that he thinks I'm "sexy" I feel like crying cause I'm just so uncomfortable. I don't even know if I should tell my mom cause 1) if it doesn't upset her, she'll just laugh at me for getting upset or 2) she's so happy with my stepdad and their marriage and if it does upset her I don't know if it will affect them. Should I tell her? He's never abused me, but I just makes me so upset that someone that's been like a second father to me possible sees me as something else besides a daughter... I was already planning to move out this plan, but now it's for sure. Also, he's never put his hands on me or done anything inappropriate except for the stuff above, so I don't even know if i should make such a big deal about it. sorry the photo stuff happened when i was 17, not 14

First they'd fight a lot, usually ending with my mother storming upstairs. For the past year, my mother has rarely worn her wedding ring (unless visiting family members who'd notice) because she's always mad at him. For the past several months, my dad has been sleeping in the basement because he "likes the cooler temperature." My mom has explicitly said that they're not talking to each other "right now," but at this rate I don't know if they'll ever try to solve whatever problem they're having. They're more like roommates than a married couple now. They say goodnight and greet each other when returning from work. They talk about who needs to pick up who/ upcoming events. And they talk (breifly) about what's for dinner sometimes. It drives me crazy. The entire atmosphere of the house changes when they bicker; they're both grumpy and my brothers and I don't want to talk in case they get more angry. I know this isn't about me. I know I should probably just suck it up and accept that no marriage is perfect. But I feel like I need to do something to make is slightly better before I explode at them. Even if it's something sly and small like mentioning that her birthday gift was my dad's idea. Once I tried talking about when they first met, but my mom shut me down pretty fast and was kinda huffy about it. Does anyone have experience or suggestions on how to deal with situation? Thanks for reading and thanks in advance.

So I'm moving to a different city to be with my partner. He lives about an hour and a half away from my mother. She's obviously upset about this. But this is my life. How often is reasonable to see my mother? I don't want to be away too long and not be close with her anymore. :/

police. I got in a bad situation when I came back to America and my sister and mother have treated me really bad. I have no family as you can see and I do not have a job. The only job I got hired for is Uber but I do not know how safe it is? I was thinking to do it for a few months to save money and leave. I was living in the UK before and it was kinda better and I was away from my nasty fake family I can not stand. Should I just do Uber save money and leave. The situation has crushed my self esteem from my evil fake mother and I have been depressed. Please help.

She has a mortgage for her own house. But her parents live there as they lost their house. But she told me her father is saying it's his house he can do whatever he wants. She asked him to behave he said to her anymore he will throw her out it's his house.

I'm a 22 yr old female and i from the caribbean. I am currently attending college and will be through by December. I am currently single. I don't do much for fun because of financial issues and it's a bit hard to get part time jobs here. My ex boyfriend use to be my down time most times and my company when I don't want to travel back home on weekends. I live at my father's home, however he migrated, so that leaves me here with my grandfather. Thing is a relationship maybe developing with a classmate and i, that lives on campus. You aren't allowed to stay the night on as a visitor and he lives like 4 hours away. What is your take on inviting him over being that this is my father's house.

Every time I try to speak with my mom and have my own opinion about things, she always goes, "that sounds like your dad talking." Why does she always say this? Why can't I have my own freaking opinion? And she'll go, "that's your dad brainwashing you." Like what?!?! My mom and dad aren't together, so they don't really like each other. Why does she have to compare me to him. Me and my dad see each other once every week, and yes my dad is really argumentative, and a little narcissistic, but anything I ever say to my mom, is my own emotions and feelings, and she always says that, "it's your dad speaking." Why can't I have my own emotions?

I'm a 23 year old male and I've made alot of bad choices in my life. I've stolen alot of money from my grandpa and I've just been a complete prick to my other family members. My mom has spent over $1000 just cleaning up my mistakes. I have never been arrested or anything like that but I always end up causing my family members to spend money on me like on my car or school.. I've been involved in drugs and I had a drug problem for a while and that was one of the main reasons I would steal money. I've done many other bad things too like yell at my parents and other family members. I am not proud of this.. I feel a tremendous amount of guilt for everything I've done and I cant seem to forgive myself. What should i do??

My aunt used to beat me and my sister when we were little kids (I was about 3 and my sister 6). I'm now 20 and she gave me e coli after not washing her hands once finished using the restroom. It affected me worse due to me having a chronic illness, I ended up in the E.R because I could not even keep water down and was severely dehydrated. After this e coli incident, I can no longer stand her. I would put up with her before and just be polite because my dad loves his sister. But now I do not even want to touch this disgusting woman, let alone hug her. I have to see her again soon and I'm afraid of upsetting my family if I refuse to even touch her, what should I do?

I resent my Dad.

How do I make up for being an outsider from a Mom who didn't get along with them? I want them to like me again. Easter is coming and I will feel loss and rejection again just like Christmas, Thanksgiving, weddings, and other events. I have reached out and they reciprocate some but not a lot. I am an adult. Background: My mother never got along with her family cause her Dad was an alcoholic. She decided to hold us kids back from being around him cause of his mood swings. As a result we missed much family time and were not able to get close to our grandfather until we were teens. I feel this will forever define me as "Joan's son" and thus an outsider. How do I make up to them and get to be in the family social circle? I host something each Labor Day but very few come (maybe 6 out of 23 people).

He overdosed on alcohol as he is an alcoholic and was 53 so his kids were young. His wife always swept his alcoholism under the rug.

Mother and Daughter have deep issues and mother is trying to prove she is justified in her animosity towards this daughter. Daughter bad mouths mother to but for more understandable reasons. Both are too bitter.
