Question: Pls need help! Did my mom take this as a joke to her because she knows it won’t happen or did she take it as a offense if she does want more?

Was my moms response to this a joke to her since that shes done with having kids or was she saying this as a remark if she would have another why. He said to me why would I have a kid near 50 the other day also she knows this is my fear Today I had a dream that my cousin thats gifted told me my mom was going to have a baby. Just before I told my grandmother on the phone about the dream and my sister overheard and her face went kinda blank and said out loud "mom Lauren had a dream that you were pregnant that was her nightmare". Then my mom came down the steps kinda laughing and then I came in the room and she look at me and said "you had a dream I was pregnant that was your nightmare cause I was pregnant it was your nightmare?". I got nervous and said no no I had many nightmares I had a dream I was in a hotel room and some guy wanted to get me and she said "cause you been thinking to much" then I said to her I'm on the phone with grandma and Chris (my uncle) didn't even ask how I was feeling (I have a cold) then I told her my dream about her and I can't remember if she said because your thinking...

Question: Problem with my mom?

Posted: 13 May 2019 12:06 PM PDT

Hi. I'm having a little problem right now with my mom. I'm 15 years old and I only love with her so I don't have any family members that I can reach out to that would take my side. This has happened way to many times and I just wanted to ask for your opinions. She is usually a nice mom around me and other people but she has a lot of downs I fact more downs than ups I can understand that life can be hard sometimes but my life can be hard too. But in a way she doesn't understand that and expects me to be happy all the time when bad situations occur. But this is not what I am here to talk about. So I called my dad that I visit in the summer. He wanted to plan things out with me to make sure that it was the vacation I wanted it wasn't even a full 15 minutes and this was when my mom was at work. My mom and dad don't have the best relationship after their divorce when I was three but I have grown used to that because they stopped fighting as much as they used too. My dad told my mom that everything was established and my mom found this out today even though I told her on Saturday that I talked to him. Today she bursted out with anger and started yelling at me and telling me how worthless I am and that I should be talking to my father when she knows. I don't even understand why like it's my life. But this is the end of the story. Any suggestions. She is still mad

Question: How do i convince my parents i'm not disabled?

Posted: 13 May 2019 09:59 AM PDT

im 67 years old, and my parents are in their 90s, and they treat me like im disabled. they push me around on a wheelchair, and make me wear diapers. they spoonfeed me and bathe me, they make me wear glasses even though i can see without them, and they make me use hearing aids and take stupid medications. they also forbid me from speaking except "gah gah goo goo", sort of like binary code.

Posted: 13 May 2019 09:55 AM PDT

theres this creepy guy that keeps passing by my house every day at around 9 or 10 am. he's on a wheelchair, hes really fat, and he has red hair. he often screams "ay yay yay" or "gah gah goo goo" as he passes by on his motorized wheelchair. yesterday i saw him putting a bag of diapers and a pacifier in my mailbox, and he was trying to push my car out of my driveway. i don't know his name or his contact info. this began happening about one month ago. i asked my neighbors about this, as well as the hoa, but they said they have no clue about this. i've called the police before and described this guy, and they did an extensive search for him, but could't locate him. should i get the fbi involved, or should i just move. i have lots of friends in this neighborhood, and its a lot of work to move.

Question: Am I wrong to not allow my boyfriends mom to drink around my daughter?

Posted: 13 May 2019 09:47 AM PDT

His mother used to be a raging alcohol and ended up being diagnosed with acute pancreatitis years back. She cut down on her drinking but still drinks and gets drunk occasionally. She thinks that because it isn't as excessive as it used to be that she's 'overcame her addiction'. The other weekend we were in her garden, with my young daughter, and husband mom opened a can of cider and started drinking it. I picked my daughter up straight away. Went inside and demanded that we go home if she is drinking. She argued back saying it's one can it's harmless and I was being ridiculous. I understand 'one can' is harmless but not when you're an alcoholic, I just think it's very inappropriate for an alcoholic to be drinking around my daughter, whether it's one can or not. Am I being dramatic or is this reasonable?

Question: I hate my sister but love my niece?

I was travelling with my relatives Somewhere. We were going in a train and me and my cousin were climbing on the births and doing some mischief. Then my aunt and his mom got angry and she scolded both of us and hit me hard on the back but didn't touch her own son. So i don't understand why was harsh to me only? Is it because I'm not her son?

Question: My child use her gift card to buy her mom a gift?

Posted: 13 May 2019 07:21 AM PDT

My mom gave my daughter a gift card for her birthday. My child's grandpa on her mom side took her shopping for mothers day, and apparently her monm gave her gift card in case she wanted to buy toys because they don't go Wal-Mart very often. My 6 year old choose to use her card to buy her mom something for mothers day, and I'm pretty P.O about it because tbat money was to be used on my child! Not her mom. My 6 year old is mad at me nkw because she is saying she wanted to use her own credit card to buy her mom something for mothers day. Why did her pos of a grandpa let her? Not money to be used what so ever on the mom What can I do? Its bs

Question: Was I wrong for not keeping my brother’s kids?

Posted: 13 May 2019 06:25 AM PDT

I've kept them for 9 years. 2 years ago our abusive mother, because I finally started standing up to her told me never to contact her again. I haven't. I do send gifts during special occasions to let her know, in spite of it all, I still love her. Well, she's very close to my brother. I'm fact, I was constantly reminded, as a child by her, that he was loved more than she ever loved me. As an adult, she repeats this same pattern with his children. They're special, they're better than I ever was.. I never let these things make me bitter. I chose to enjoy my brother and his family.. But recently something happened. My mother has started bad mouthing me in front of my grown children and when my husband called to check on her she did the same to him.. My sons and my brother still go to dinner with my mom and they all visit her... I've never let it be an issue until this recent even happened. I informed my brother that I can no longer be his nanny. It's just too much for me to take now. Now I feel betrayed by everyone. Am I right to feel this way? What should I do? I feel it's time to close that chapter. Am I wrong?

Question: GF broke up with me and I’m upset.?

Posted: 13 May 2019 04:33 AM PDT

I'm 38 and I had to move back in with my parents. I've lived with them for almost a year and money's very tight. I'm unemployed and my dad works two jobs to pay for everything, including me. I was able to talk them into letting my GF move in, since she's willing to pay our rent. We haven't been able to be intimate for a while, since it's a two bedroom home and the walls are super thin. To cut down on expenses, we take showers in pairs. My parents first, then us. For the last week, my now ex, was in Denver visiting her parents. My parents and I agreed to shower together to save money. My ex came home and thought I was in the shower alone, since she only saw one car in the port (parents' car was in the shop). She thought she'd surprise me by jumping in. When she came into the bathroom, she realized we were all in there together. I tried to explain myself, but she won't even listen. What should I do? She's an extremely emotional person and has a habit of turning everything around on me.

Question: Why are these people like this?

Posted: 13 May 2019 12:34 AM PDT

like you write to my parents and bro and sis bully me. fed me acid .shoot I will with a bullet . anything. then they write I wish there were my parents that do these things to me.ok .their parents are dead doesn't mean these are ok. ******* **** parents. assholes the whole thing they do is to be a drill in my ***. ''don't talk or I will beat you up.'' ''come wear this clothes .oh you don't want to wear them? this means you don't like me anymore?'' ''ohhh I'm scared of your effing brother cus he is bigger and can beat me up. oh, you think I treat you like a maid and like crap? no. no, I don't treat your brother as the king and don't tell him to do anything cuz I'm scared of him.'' if I had an option to die and not see anything called effing family I did. hopefully, this torture will end when I died. don't talk that if you don't like your family god will barbecue me after death. nope, these are stories. if god existed why would he enjoy seeing us getting tortured and not do anything then barbecue us for eternity. then he would be a sadist.

Question: Why does my sister lie?

Posted: 12 May 2019 11:32 PM PDT

Everyday she says she hates me, and hates being near me. We live together with my mom. And she blames me for everything. Or she blames my mom. If she's late for work, she'll Blame me, if she couldn't do her homework on time, she'll Blame me somehow. Saying, "I kept her up." But my biggest issue is, why lie? She tells her friends and bf that me and mom tell her she's weak and she will become a nobody. NO ONE has EVER said that to her. And every time she cries she tells all her friends that we hate her and treat her like trash. But, I barley even see her because how my schedule works. Like why lie? Btw she is the youngest and gets everything she wants. But, claims no one ever gets her anything and no one cares about her. Like I swear, I could walk in the room and she'll be like "Omfg I can't stand being near you." Like wtf is her issue?

Question: Do you think this family will reconcile?

Posted: 12 May 2019 10:36 PM PDT

I was put in the center of a family drama that resulted in a lot of family members not talking to each other anymore. I have lost a lot of relationships due to this. Let's just say I was like the final nail in the coffin. And by the time I realized this it was too late to salvage things. Now things are broken and it's like a war of siblings. Who is doing better than who, who is chipping in for grandma, who is doing this or that. People hurt me a lot in order to get at my mother. she was the main target. She accomplished a lot in her life and they envied her for what she had. But they would not do the work they always begged for her money instead of fighting for their own. When she finally realized what was going on they tarnished her reputation and destroyed me in the process.I fell into depression for months but eventually got back up. I know the truth will come out one day. But good things happening in their lives is making me question if I was a good person to these people at all. making me question my sanity. Making me wonder if I was not a negative influence on their life. because I am miserable now that I'm no longer in contact with them. I grew up with them so it's hard to detach from toxic if you are raised in it. But I am also hurt by the things they did. It makes me so bitter. but somehow I wish deep down that one day we will all get along again. That they truth will come. Is it realistic at all? Do you think it will happen?

Question: Why is my older brother so salty?

Posted: 12 May 2019 09:22 PM PDT

So his family bought him a PS3 years ago. He used to play it all of the time and was in love with it, but then he moved out. He's been gone for a while, so I ended up selling his game station on Amazon since he left it here, but then when he came back to visit and realized it was gone, he got mad and asked me why I wouldn't just send it to him. Now he quit speaking to me and ignored me for months, even when he went back home. Whenever we do talk, he's very monotone and ends the conversation immediately. He's acting immature, what the hell is his problem?

Question: Did you say happy mother's day, and are you on good terms with your mom?

Posted: 12 May 2019 08:09 PM PDT

Question: Fiance doesn’t “do” mother’s day?

Posted: 12 May 2019 07:11 PM PDT

Growing up my siblings and I have always celebrates mother's day by either doing something special for my mom, e.g. getting her a card, flowers, taking her out to lunch or dinner or making breakfast for her, etc. Just something to show her that we appreciate her. I've always assumed that this is just what most people do, who are able to/on good terms with their moms. But as it turns out, mother's day isn't really a thing in my fiance's immediate family. I've noticed that he never gets her a gift or even a card. He does go over to her house to visit for a few hours but that's it. He told me this is how it has always been, that she has always been fine with not making a big deal of it & has said that he doesn't have to do anything special (especially bcause her bday is during the same month as mother's day). But I just worry that she feels left out/disappointed but doesn't want to say anything or be a burden. I did get her a card & wrote something nice as she's my future mother-in-law. My fiance says it's just not something they do in his family. I respect that & I'm not saying he needs to change that, it's between him & his mom but I guess I'm just...confused? Like why wouldn't you want to do something nice? Even if she supposedly doesn't expect anything why not get her something nice anyways to surprise her? Why not? I also love picking out & giving gifts to people, so maybe that's why...anyways, does anyone else just not celebrate mother's day? Is that really a thing?

Posted: 12 May 2019 06:44 PM PDT

Yesterday I called my older bro and asked him what he was doing for my mom today on mothers day. He told me to just get her a card and put all of our names on it like we did last year. So I agreed to that. When I came home today with the card, I found my brother had bought my mom an expensive 65 inch smart TV for her bedroom wall. She was so happy and kept talking about how she loved the TV. I asked my brother what is deal with him buying her that when I thought we were just doing the card. He told me to relax and that he didn't think to tell me about this. I feel like he did that to make me look bad. Because I didn't buy her anything and he got her a TV?or is he right and I'm just making a big deal of this?

Question: Why is my estranged son sending me a text invitation to his son's graduation when I haven't talked to him in six years?

Posted: 12 May 2019 04:03 PM PDT

I don't talk to my son and his daughter (my granddaughter) for various reasons. I wanted to keep contact with his son (,my grandson), but my son told me not to contact him or give him gifts, birthday greetings, etc, since I don't talk to my granddaughter. Since my grandson is graduating this year, my son sent me a text invitation to his graduation party but I'm not attending since I haven't sent him any gifts or birthday greetings in six years, to abide by my son's wishes. I did see my grandson a few times over the six years and I asked him why he doesn't come to see me and he said, "I don't know.". Should I ignore the invitation or write back saying I won't be attending, or say I won't be attending because you have instructed not to give him any gifts for six years, so why should I start now, and besides, he never came to visit me when I asked him to?

Question: Just need some guidance and encouragement right now please?

Posted: 12 May 2019 03:53 PM PDT

I'm 53. I'm a wife and mother of 2 boys 20 and 24. I grew up with an abusive mother. I can remember an instance when I was 3. I had just gotten a puppy and it was my job to let it out to potty. I didn't do so good and one day the dog pooped in the floor. My mother picked the poop up and told me that I would be the one that would get my nose rubbed in it since I didn't let it out. She chased me with poop in hand. I got under my bed, against the wall, frightened, cried myself to sleep. I woke the next morning and went about my business. Just an example of my childhood. My mother, as an adult has always verbally abused me when things didn't go her way. She also does the same thing to an aunt of mine and I'd often tell her it wasn't right and I'd scold her a little bit. I finally got tired of it and told her that I refuse to be treated that way... after that, she sent me a text saying- if you ever contact me again I'll call the police. I've left her alone for 2 yrs now. I send her birthday, Mother's Day and Christmas gifts and cards telling her I love her. My husband called her the other day (I was unaware). He told her that he wishes we could be a family again. My son's happened to be there with her. In front of my sons she tells him that sometimes you have to love people from a distance and that's how she'd like to keep it with me. My husband didn't tell me, my youngest son did. I was devastated. I'm still devastated. How do I move past. I've cried for two days.

Question: Desperate for advice about my mother's spending addiction.?

Posted: 12 May 2019 03:46 PM PDT

I'm a 16 year old living with two younger sisters and my two parents. My mother, in the last few years, finished her collage and got a job as a nurse. This was her first time with her own income. Ever since, she has bought many things regardless of if she could afford it or not. Today, she owns two expensive vehicles, an SUV and a car, she doesn't drive the SUV since she bought the car and I have to reinflate the tires on it from time to time because they are worn out and I have to make sure they don't get perminantly damaged, even though she doesn't seem to care. She also bought a trailer that she lived in over a summer and then never again because she didn't do what was necessary to prepare it for winter, it got repo'd. A few days ago, my dad bought our family a dog, he's a lot of work but a great addition to our family; however, my mom seems to have been triggered into buying a dog for herself now, even though she doesn't have the room, time, or money to take care of it. She has the support of my sisters because she repeatedly buys them stuff and when I mentioned something about it, my sisters were quick to defend her and attack me. She doesn't listen to my father at all and hates his guts. There are many past due bills now coming in every day that she has no intent to pay and it's only a matter of time that my family gets sued. I think she has some kind of mental disorder. I know I need to do something but I'm only 16 and there's a lot that I don't yet understand.

Question: Did I make the right decision?

Posted: 12 May 2019 02:28 PM PDT

My step-mom and I don't really have a good relation. I love my dad, but her new wife is horrible. I didn't get her anything for mothersday besides saying happy mothersday. I offered her to make her some dinner, but she only replied with a simple "no, I'm not hungry". She didn't get me anything for my birthday either, so I didn't really felt like getting her something. I kinda feel bad, because I would like to have a better relationship with her, but I feel like she does not like me. I spent the whole day with her mom, who loves me, we went to church, got breakfast, went for a hike and played cards. My stepmom was just sitting in her room. My stepbrothet (it's her son from her old husband) didn't get het anything either, we just went up to her said happy mothersday in the morning, hugged her and that's it. He went to take a nap, and went to work from 4-8. Her and my stepbrother relationship is much better tho. Did I do wrong? Ps. We are both moving out in 1 month for college.

Question: Why do people hate me?

Question: Did I handle this situation correctly?

Posted: 12 May 2019 02:06 PM PDT

I'm sure I could have handled it better, but anyway. My mom has a drinking problem. It's not like shes drunk 24/7 but when she is drunk, she is one of the most obnoxious people I know. Me, my sister, and my mom decided to all go get breakfast at a cafe. My mom decided to get a bloody Marie. I dont usually mind if she drinks as long as she doesnt get drunk. She finished her first bloody marie, and was slurring her words. She says to the waiter "uh...hello, I'm empty" she was joking around, but I didnt find it funny, just annoying. She was also being really loud, so almost everyone in the room could hear her. I thought she was just gonna leave it at one, but she ordered another. I was fuming at this point, so I just stayed silent the rest of the time, give one word answers when my mom or sister asked me something. My mom was hanging on my arm on the way out of the restaurant, because she had trouble walking. When we all got in my car, the radio was playing quietly, so she turned it way up, and started singing. I think she noticed I was mad, so she was trying to cheer me up, but I almost snapped, and just punched the dile with my fist. I dropped my sister off, and the drive home was just silent. When we got home, I just got out of the car, and walked straight to my room. I realise shes a grown women. And can make her own decisions, and that it's also her house, but she knows I dont like her drinking like that. Not only because shes annoying, but it makes her depression worse.
