Our family share this home, though. My mom put it out of my room despite the room being crowded already (I also share it with my sister). I then put it in our storage room since there are some spaces there. But because of her OCD and stubbornness, she threw them all out. I then told about it to my father & questioned why she did it, only to be scolded back where he said "you don't need them all in my career!!!". I at least want them to be considerate about it because I still value them. We're Asian and some parents like mine find it insulting for their children wanting to move out or if they want their children to move out, unless one is the eldest/middle and has a family of his own. There is this tradition where the youngest (me) had to inherit the house for good luck and other sh*t. However, while the parents are still living, they still have the right to rule and decide on what to do in the house. correction: "you don't need them in your career"

My brother is threatening to harm me because he inboxed me on Facebook after not being on Facebook in almost 7 years and not talking to him for almost 7 years due to him running me down and speaking bad about me. He inboxed me like everything was all good, and I just told him to not contact me and that he was toxic and then I blocked him. He called the entire family as if I did something wrong by telling him not to contact me and that he's going to kill me. I've live in Washington DC now and haven't talked to family in almost 7 years. I just decided to cut the whole family off for my own sanity. Tried to let up a little bit and reactivate my Facebook. Now I'm getting threats. Was I wrong for just telling not to contact me and about his narcissistic ***?

Every decision in my life that I have made has turned out to be successful, despite my fathers expectations, yet he still insists and has certain demands of me and tries to control my life. He wanted me to go to Harvard and I didn't go to Harvard and he got furious at me and threatened to disown me. I instead went to Duke and I graduated and got a job offer as an aerospace engineer with a world renowned company. I started dating a nurse and my father was furious and said if I wasn't dating a doctor or a woman in medical school that I was a loser and he guaranteed we would divorce. He won't even acknowledge my now wife and pretends she doesn't exist because she's not a doctor and is a nurse instead. Yet we've been married for 6 years and he still tells me every month how I'm going to regret marrying a nurse and not a doctor. He only sees people through their careers and education and not how good of a person they are or how much we love each other. He told me that I'd never have children because I'm incapable of being a father and am lazy, yet we've been raising a 3 year old boy no problems. My father still thinks I don't know how to raise my own child. I don't understand him

I'm a younger sister to my brother. I want to apologize to my brother because I think I hurt his feelings really bad. U made fun of his autism

My mom offered me a job this summer and she live 1000 miles away from me every year I've gone by her but notes long as 3 months. I told my Dad I wouldn't go by her this year but my job here isn't going so well. My dad doesn't care for my mom at all and when I told him about the offer he got really upset and started to call her names. I've been a little unhappy by my dads and we fight a lot. He just got remarried not to long ago and I've some adjusting problems and had to see a therapist. I would like to go by her but I have friends here and don't want everyone to be disappointed in me for going by mom. What should I do?

I'm 31 and have two children . My mother and I are VERY VERY close and use to talk at least twice a day , or every other day . She has a new boyfriend and they live together now . My mother doesn't really keep in touch with me now . It's concerning...I know she has her own life and stuff . I guess I'm asking because in the past ...there's a history of her always putting a man before us as children . To the point a man manipulated my mom since he saw her weakness ....causing him to go behind her back and "mess with me". I'm guessing my mom is still weak for men ?

I was using my boyfriend s computer when I accidentally closed the tab I was working on. I went into the history to pull it back up and I saw something I regret. Down below their was searches for beasiality porn,girl ***** horse ect. I was very disgusted. I kept going down to see what else there was and there was son ***** sister and mom and more. Should I be worried???? Who would watch porn between animals and humans. Not only that but why would he watch porn between a son and his mother? His mom died when he was a younge boy. Could this be a link to why he would watch it? I m not sure if I should speak to him about it or not. Everytime I look at him I think about it. It makes my stomach turn.

Is it normal for an eleven year old boy and an 8 year old boy who are friends to do sexual stuff at that age? Or does it happen a lot. Thanks

I am a 24 year old female. I lost my mom at 21 to cancer and now I live with my Dad (who I love but hes an alcoholic and never learned how to take care of himself. Total slob and laziest person I know). and my almost 17 year old nephew. My mom adopted him because my brother does nothing but make horrible choices. We live in a duplex next to my grandparents and my grandmother because guardian of my nephew, but he still lives on our side. My dad is VERY mean to him. My nephew has had a hard life so I try to stick up for him and I feel for him because he will not have good memories of his childhood. But then he is always asking me for rides to his baseball games and friends houses and I feel bad when I say no, but I want to live my own life, not wait around for him. He is not my kid. I don't mean to sound rude but I have been putting other people before myself for so long that I am now extremely depressed and I find myself in the house too much. I want to go out and enjoy myself, but I make little money so it makes traveling pretty much impossible and I can never think of fun things to do besides going to the movies. I don't know how to enjoy life anymore :( I would LOVE to move out....but I make 1800 a month so I cannot afford to the first person to answer on here, your comment disappeared for whatever reason so if you see this I am not ignoring you :( i could leave my dog with my dad as he loves her i guess :(

Any mail that comes to my mom or aunts house they open it.

My girlfriend works she does night shifts and I use to work where she works and it is not even close to hard and she comes home with the meanest attitude in the world and just because she doesn't get her way she will swear at me calling me so many names (all I can do is put something in the wrong place and she will act like I did something very wrong) then if the kids don't act right for her she will call them a ***** and little pieces of **** and just makes them cry mostly my daughter cause she is 2 years old and understands more than my 1 year old son. I confront her about it and all she says is that I'm wrong I'm stupid a ***** and just calls me every name you can be called in the book. Then what I don't get I do asphalt for work full time I come home take care of the kids and cook and clean everyday but she still has a bad attitude and if she has to take care of the kids she takes them to their grandma. My question here is.. what affect does my kids get if she keeps swearing at them like that? What can I do? I never been in this situation. Does she need mental help? And I ask because she hates me proving her wrong she flipped the biggest one because I told her to get hamburger buns and she said I'm a dumb **** that we had sandwich bread...what do I do?

I do chores without her telling me to do so, makes good grades, and I even have a job. But my mom still hold hands with me in public just in case I would wander off like when I was little and won't let me hang out with friends since I'm "safest at home." Since it's all about safety I told her I have my phone and I'll contact her often, but she ignored me. I can't say "but I'm 16" because it would be really rude and immature to say. Any other suggestions?

All my life my mom has done whatever she could to control my life and independence, from lying to me about taxes(saying I can't file or I will have to become emancipated and life on my own), to not allowing me to go to friends birthday parties, sleepovers, or even other events. I'm from New York but moved to the midwest when I was young, I wanted to travel around Manhattan on my own during our last trip there and she said she knew it but decided to invite herself, my cousin, and my younger sister(who ended up getting tired of walking). I'm basically going to shorthand my situation: I want to solo travel to Bali and experience everything for my OWN benefit. She comes in and says the money I have saved and earned will be going to a trip to India for HER benefit(she is wanting to start a jean line). She never asked if I was ok with it She said If I say no then she'll know I'm "not on her team"(wtf? emotional manipulation??) Then she suggests I can go on my own(the area she is expecting me to go to is non-touristy and I've told her I wanted my first trip to be in a touristy area). So now I can't even let her know I do not want to go to India without her screaming about how selfish and inconsiderate I am. Also: Please do not suggest I move out, I will be graduating this winter with my bachelor's degree and will be moving out either then or at the beginning of the semester. Do not excuse her behavior as her worrying for me UPDATE: Since people want to be judgemental, last week I told my mother I didnt want. to go to the mall with her and she went into my bank account and took two thousand dollars from my savings(THAT I EARNED) and said I could get it back when she felt like it. Now all of a sudden she has new weave, new sneakers, and a 500 dollar purse. So BEFORE you judge me understand where the **** Im coming from

My niece is 23 her boyfriend is 20 they're staying with our family for the summer (they live out of state). He was a really sweet guy. Tall, smart, handsome etc. I already saw him on social media but I finally got to meet him. We all went out he'd put his arm around her and give her small kisses which I thought was adorable but when we were getting out my car I noticed him slap her butt I heard her giggle and said not now. I don't know if he thought no one was looking and I know they're kids but still. Not in my car not in front of the family.

I have a cousin who lives next door to me and he lives out of his car so he is pretty much homeless and he is always doing drugs or drinking beer every day. For the past month he has been harassing me alot every time I go outside or come home from work he insults me or tells stupid things at me. At first I was hesitant to say anything to him because he has been to prison in the past. Today things hit the fan and me and him almost got into a fight but my mom broke it up. I dont know what to do anymore because fighting might just make things worse and we both can go to jail. If he keeps harassing me should I call the police?? Or would the police presence just make it worse?

For some background, my dad passed away 2 years ago (I was 19 at the time) and left a decent sum of money that I inherited. My family came down (we lived in separate states and I didn't have much contact with them since my mom passed 7 years prior) and my uncle had me close my dads bank account and place the money in an account we opened. He told the woman opening the account that he "doesn't want me to be able to access or see the savings account at all" and he wanted to be sure that I couldn't get to it, but on the same account he also opened up a checking account for me to use so he can "keep an eye on my financial decisions." In theory this sounded fine and I understood why, but now that there has been a standing tension between us due to a bad argument, I'm worried that he will never let me access my inheritance when I need it in the future. Since my name is on the checking part on this account, and I'm the sole person putting funds into it, will I be able to get the money out? I can't see the savings account , and I'm honestly kind of worried that the money isn't there anymore.

say the father didn't get his way in the argument and always raises his voice and cannot speak correctly with his child he think he is some sort of gangster and needs to put his hands on everyone out of argument

My sister is three years younger than me, and we have a pretty good relationship. However, I feel very inadequate compared to her for a number of reasons. She's much prettier than me, and as a result of it she gets much attention from guys than I do (she's been in multiple relationships whereas I'm 23 and have never even kissed anyone), she gets better grades than I do, she's had more jobs than me, and she has a much better social life than I do. I'm not bitter or jealous of her, I'm honestly happy for her and everything she has, but I can't help but compare myself to her, which makes me feel really bad about myself. I've always struggled with my self esteem and constantly compared myself to my friends and peers, but knowing that someone who's this close to me is so much better than me in so many ways is much harder to deal with. In addition, my mother is always talking about my sister's academic achievements, her boyfriend, her job, etc, which makes me feel even worse. I know that this is unhealthy and it needs to stop. So how can I stop comparing myself to my sister so much and letting the good things she has make me feel worse about myself?

What would the effects of smoking blood be? Is there even research on this? Do blood types yield did outcomes

I wasn't planning on telling them. They can't see my classes and I was planning on re-taking it this coming semester and acting like nothing happened. My dad asked me to print out my semester results so they could see them. They're going to kill me when they see it. How should I tell them? I want to just rip the bandaid off cause I'm 21 and I don't think they can ground me or anything, but I don't think I can handle that level of parenting.

I have a friend and he is in danger he was beaten up before over a year ago with bad ribs . He is in his 20s and he lives with his older brother he treats him like a kid . My friend goes to work he gambles his money In the betting shop and he doesn't pay rent to his brother . He's scared of his brother he isn't allowed to stay out late And his brother put a tracker on the phone so he knows where he is at all times he's religious he lied saying he was working last night and he didn't go he went to my other friends house and his brother said if he does anything he wrong like that again he would send him back to his country . I'm worried he is going to end up dead as his Brother is Over protective and could put him in hospital my friends told him to move out but he said won't we want him to safe for his own good what else can they do

I just moved back to PA where I grew up, and where most of my family has always lived. My cousin has Power of Attorney for my uncle "Skip" but doesn t live there so my uncle is alone at 80. I knew from phone calls that Skip has dementia, but thought he was being well cared for. My first day home I visited Skip and called my cousin to tell him the house needs an exterminator badly, and that the electric bill needed to be paid because they disconnected it while I was there. My cousin admitted that Skip s savings (almost a million dollars) are gone and made up some nonsense about how it was spent on Skip, but his monthly SSI covers the bills and he doesn t spend any money. I turned on his electric, got an exterminator, and I have things set up easier for him. I stop there every morning to prep his meals for the day, but I work and don t want him alone. He doesn t want to leave his house, and I believe the state will supply a home health aid since he no longer can afford one. His son won t look into that, I think he doesn t want to draw attention to the finances. I m a single female and I don t feel comfortable reporting anybody. Any advice on how to bypass his POA and request a nurse? Is there anybody helpful I can get involved that will let me remain anonymous? I don t know what avenue to take.

I'm turning 18 on June 14, and at that point I will be able to access a savings account that was set up for my when my father died (14 years ago.) My cousin and I are getting ready to move; our living conditions right now are just awful and we need to get out. I don't have a job right now, and won't be able to get one until I move out, and she earns about 1200 a month at her job. I am planning on getting a job right after we move, so that will turn out to be twice what we make right now. The question is, is it possible to begin renting an apartment if we don't make 3x the rent at the time we sign? Will we qualify for income-restricted housing? Will we be able to rent if I have all the saving actually in my savings account? I don't know the exact amount but I know it's pretty sizable. Both of us are young and have no credit. But soon our current situation will no longer be livable so we have no choice but to figure this out. Thanks so much for your advice in advance!

My dad does not let me sleep at my bfs house eventhough we used to live together for 2 years.

So I'm 15 almost 16 and my dad said he'd Book me an appointment but my mum is so against it. She's being dying her hair since she was 14/15, but apparently never got it done in a salon at this young of an age. I'd rather spend more money and have it look nice rather than try and do it myself. I get where she is coming from but it's a bit contradictory as she has been dying hers for decades. She also said I have sensitive skin , but id go in for a consultation and get a patch test before. She thinks it's 'growing up too quick' But I really don't see that point ? Is she being unreasonable because I really do think so and it's not just because I want to it getting done.

So I am a 16 year old girl that is a foster kid. I was taken from my parents when I was 10 years old due to their drug and alcohol addictions. I haven't seen my dad in 6 years, I wasn't supposed to talk to my dad but I called him one day and since we have talked on the phone maybe 6 times total, and that was really only to let him know that I was moving to another foster home. He sounded happy everytime I called him and he said he couldn't wait to see me and he missed me and he was sorry. But now I live closer to him and he has the choice to come and see me but he isn't anymore. Why? What did I do? How can I get him to act like a dad again?

My God daughter Savannah is 5 will be 6 in November. I adore and love her very much but I miss the days when she was 2 and 3 years old.

My husband is trying to teach my boys to act hypermasculine even though they are still five years old by enrolling them in martial arts lessons, for example, but the school that I went to won't accept them until they turn seven or eight years old. He also wants them to play with toy guns and anything that makes them masculine instead of unisex toys and gets paranoid about me buying them toys suited for girls. As for me, I'm teaching them to be kind and considerate of people's boundaries, including females, and be the best they can be as well as be practical, which he does not tolerate, knowing how ultra-conservative he is, even though I don't buy the boys girly toys and books. My parents and in-laws also bug me about this, knowing my parents wanted me to marry my husband so they wouldn't worry too much about me picking the wrong people, but I don't agree with them and I don't want my boys to be confused. I want them to know exactly what they want and what they are doing

How do I deal with that? What causes it?

For a lot of the twins I've known, whoever was born first seems to like to brag about being the "older" one. I guess technically they are older, but just barely, barely, barely. So I don't see what difference it makes.

My son joined soccer camp and met a kid who turned out to be in foster care. She admitted to my son that drugs and no parental supervision at all was the reason why she got removed last year. I've observed his new friend, and I'm seeing signs of behaviours that I wouldn't want my kids to pick up. I know it's not the kid's fault, it's the parents. The girl has a rebellious streak and doesn't know that some of the things she does are morally wrong. For example, skipping school or trying to hack into another child's social media account because they "talked bad about her". It was wrong for the other person to talk poorly of her, but it is technically illegal to get into somebody's account without permission (it was just an attempt that never worked because she's a 12 year old without those computer skills, but still). School is already out for summer break, but I've heard of numerous troubled incidents that occurred when they were in school session. They don't go to school together, but she brags about it to friends. Further more, they're at the age of puberty and hormones. Combine that with a mentally unstable child of the opposite gender, and it can lead to problems. There's been cases where foster teens falsely accuse somebody of assault or worse, because they got into a normal conflict with them and didn't know how else to handle it. I generally don't have a problem with my son having friends of both genders, but I'm just more cautious with this specific girl.

Many people have told me to go to the hospital because some sickness or condition or something like that keeps giving me headaches, dizzyness, extreme pain and makes me faint randomly but how do I tell her? She's already stressed enough and I don't want to make it worse. On top of whatever is happening to me, worrying about the stress this might cause my mom is stressing me out. If you know a good way to tell her without stressing her out, please tell me

I love Billy Joel - he's my idol. But I absolutely cannot stand how he's widely associated with Long Island, and considered LI's "favorite son", because he was BORN IN THE BRONX! I know he grew up on LI, but still...My dad says that if I told people he wasn't LI's favorite son, I could get a big beating to my rear end. Why does this opinion bother him it seems? There are plenty of celebrities from LI who were BORN AND RAISED there, and perfectly qualified to be LI's favorite son.

I'm an 18-year old boy, and I'm back home after my first year at university. Yesterday, I invited my girlfriend over to my house, and we were in my room. We were on my couch, and just as I began to kiss her, my mother walked in to ask some silly question about what I wanted for dinner. I was outraged she hadn't knocked, and just yelled "Get out, don't ever f*cking come in without knocking". I was in no mood to listen to her apology, but to my shock, instead she walked up and silenced me with such a tight slap across my face I literally lost my senses for a moment. It happened in front of my girlfriend; as a teenager, having your mother smack your face in front of your gf is insanely humiliating. I just looked down, not knowing what to do, when my mother grabbed my ear, pushing my face up. And in that position, she scolded me for a good minute while pausing to slap my face at least three or four times. By the end I had tears running down my cheeks and was apologizing, more from shame than the pain. When my mother was done, she just patted the cheek she had struck and said, "Never force me to do this to you again," and left. I couldn't even meet my girlfriend's eyes in humiliation, she had watched my mother slap me across the face and cry. She had never struck my face before, so why did she choose to do it in front of my girl? Is that even allowed?

So my friend, he's 17, is scared and needs help. His parents are taking his money and using it, saying what's his is theirs, and now expecting him to pay a medical bill, that wasn't addressed to him. He has no money and can't afford to pay it! He wants to call someone for help but he's too old to go into foster and he doesn't know what will happen to him. He's got no car or insurance, and he can't get a job due to mental issues. Can someone help??

I am 29 and female.

I'm 15, and I live with my mom, dad, and older brother. We've had several water related issues since we bought the house and nothing ever gets done about it. My dad is notorious for not doing things to make the house better or safer, and this is just one of many; when my brother and I were very little, he refused to baby lock cabinets or cupboards until our neighbor stepped in and did it himself out of HIS concern. My mom begged him to anchor my brothers big dresser to the wall because we kept climbing on it, and he didn't, and while trying to climb it, it fell on the both of us and we were nearly KILLED. My mother and I are both becoming allergic to our house (our eyes are swelling, sneezing, coughing, choking, migraines, constantly filled with tiredness and fatigue) and he is still refusing to do anything about it. My mom is unemployed and has no money of her own so she can't use his without permission, and has several physical issues preventing her from checking it out herself. Despite all of our reactions to the house, as well as him beginning to get ill, he WILL NOT do anything about it. What do we do?

So a cousin and I were drunk, his wife, sister and our grandmother were all in attendance. Yes we were all drunk. I get along with the cousin exceptionally, whenever I come into town he always makes a point to come see me at our grandmothers since I stay there during my stays. I won't lie and act like years ago I didn't get vibes from him liking me more than a cousin and it all came to blows the other night. We're stumbling drunk and it was hot so he and I walked outside. His wife, sister were already passed out and my grandmother stayed behind. He literally let out all his feelings of sexual attraction for me. How he thought I was beautiful and super intelligent. Mind you we're first damn cousins. Somehow he convinced himself that I was only related by marriage, which we have the same grandfather. I explained that which he said he didn't care and still wanted me. I told him how weird he was being and that us being drunk had him talking stupid. He admitted he was hammered but that what he spoke was honestly how he felt. I'm laughing because I still think he's playing which afterwards he basically tried to fondle me. I honestly couldn't even look at him the next morning and I'm just hoping to put it behind us and he never brings the **** up again. I honestly don't know my next steps because he's doing so well in everything but im just all over the place in thought. What do you guys think? I'm not telling other family members so that's off the table.

Okay so my dad and mom are separated and my mom provides for housing and food everything else. My dad provides for phones and electronics. Now Im 15 and responsible I never broken a phone and take care of my stuff. I was looking for a iphone. And wish the app showed me some cheap iphones I did my research and told my mom about it but she doesnt believe in apps like that. My dad has a iphone and the women he is with and her daughter all have one. He went to buy me one and I asked for a iphone but he said no and was looking for a cheap phone. I had a phone before never broke it just was a bad phone and started acting weird and the camera was terrible and I want to start a youtube channel but the quality is bad. So I need a good phone so how should I ask my dad for a iphone or maybe a samsung. I do well in school and help my family with a lot of things. I have a phone now but its even worse cause I cant make calls and I have trouble sending messages when I really need to send them. I have a long distance relationship and I need to stay connected. So how can I ask my dad for a proper phone when he has money?
