outside of home i feel good and confident and pretty. in my group of friends & attention from boys and people i know i'm not ugly. However - at home i'm getting constantly compared to my sister who is more attractive than me but only slightly... she has bigger eyes and bigger lips and better face structure...she also gets more attention than me. which is fine - it's life. butmy mum will never compliment me - she always compliments my sister - she always says things like "i look like my dad n my sis looks like her" she always "prays" my sister doesn't get evil eye. and one time at a wedding some lady asked if my sister was single and my mum went on and on about this how "they didn't look at me and just wanted my sister" lol. i don't know what to do - my mum is lovely and i love her but i don't like how she makes me feel this way - i can tell she doesn't think i'm pretty. it's obvious lol - iit makes me not like her

I'm 13 and me and my mom got into a big altercation, and she got real mad and kicked out the house for 2 weeks, don't say oh call the police oh call Cps, No i'm not doing that because i don't wanna be with a family i don't know, but all i have is a bag of water and food i bought from the store earlier, Where can i go to lay and sleep? There's a hotel close to my house, and i only have like 154 dollars that my uncle gave me on my birthday back in february? will the people at the hotel let me buy a room for a couple days? I really need some where to stay, And No I'm Not Trolling, this really happened and i need to stay somewhere at a hotel,

He is also an illegal immigrant, drives a 1994 beat up car and I feel like he's a bum, because he was 3 other kids with another woman and doesn't seem to do much, I feel like he's taking advantage of my sister, because she was desperate to find a man, after divorcing her ex 2 years ago. I don't like this new guy, I can see that he's taking advantage of my sister and my parents don't seem to really see it, I'm sure they do.. but they're playing stupid!.. my sister is a professional and she has a nice job, nice car (which this guy always drives) and they live in my beautiful parents house for only a thousand bucks, a house that it's worth at least $3,500 a month .. anyway, is there anything I can do about it?

They are major rednecks but we have known them for so many years I feel like they are family. Yet my Mom and her family will swear the ex-aunt's family as enemies now and chastise me if I have any association with them. In my mom's family you are all good or all bad and nothing in the middle. I am more mature then that but don't want to be chastised by my mother or especially my grandmother.

My mother has been very difficult to deal with over the past few years. She seems to have given up all hope, and seems overwhelmed and depressed. Here are some things that have been going on: -Lost her job 2.5 years ago. -Squandered her mother's inheritance in three years by mismanagement and giving it away to online scammers (sold her house and gave away $75k to a scammer). -Had a stroke related to intense stress (losing job and a horrible tenant that didn't pay rent for over a year) -$400k student loan debt from medical school starting at the age of 50. -Has demanded $12k from me and my sister via email (to help pay for exams to be a doctor). -Creditors and debt collectors up her ***. She has been verbally abusive to me and my sister. She hasn't been trying to find a job. She was hospitalized last week because she passed out in the kitchen after not eating for more than 2 weeks (water diet cleanse). Her doctor said she will probably never be able to work again due to her deteriorating health. I have been trying to help her by getting her signed up for disability benefits, but she has been very hostile to me. She told me to tell people that my mom has passed away. She feels entitled to our money and thinks we should pay for all of her living expenses. Luckily, she has free housing right now and my sister's soon-to-be ex-husband has been buying her groceries. How do I talk her into signing up for benefits when she responds with, "I have no son"?

She will get my grandmother to pressure me as well and conceivably it could be my grandmother's final Christmas. Christmas is for family, my mother's beach friends are NOT family. Some are nice, most are strangers to me, many are very loud, and one is trashy with men, very trashy. It will be like the two years we had to do with my uncle's redneck in-laws that he had at the time (he is since divorced). The rednecks were all nice people but they were NOT family and it wrecked Easter and Thanksgiving those years. What do I do? I am an adult age 32 but single and terrified of conflict. I am probably worrying over nothing but am scared we will be pressured to go over there to the beach house in New Jersey. I don't want to feel the sorrow of no longer having my special Christmas at home and visiting with family back here on my Dad's side (my mother's side is just her and her mother and her brother who is single and divorced. His kids are with their mother).

Back when I was 10, my parents got a divorced (I'm 15 now). My two other siblings and I lived with our dad. Our mom would come during weekends to take us out and it was always a fun time. But last year in July, we stopped hanging out with her. It's because 3 years ago, my dad married someone new. So, my stepmom was a jealous person and she convinced us that we didn't need our biological mother and only her. We believed our stepmom, so we cut our biological mother off. Afterwards, we started having problems with our stepmom and she doesn't like us anymore. And to this day, my stepmom lives with us yet she never interacts with us. Recently, I talked to my dad to let us see our biological mom again and he quickly said no. I told him that his wife (stepmom) doesn't like us anyways and he put the blame on me. Telling me it's my fault that my stepmom doesn't like us. He went on and on about how our biological mom left us when we were little. And to stop trying to seek out others and that we only need him. He always says that we just want to see her to have fun because she usually take us to fun amusement places. Although my dad said no, I still want to reach out to my biological mom. And it's for good intentions. I miss her and I need a mother. But I know I'm going to get really yelled at by my dad for not listening to him. Should I anyways?

I work at an amazon fulfillment center and been so for 9 months. I really want to quit I cant take this job anymore and I got hurt here. My mom knows how hard it is for me here but shes also trying to convince me to stay until I get married so i can still have insurance. My fiancé tells me i should quit if I want and I shouldnt have to listen to my mom. However I know my mom will be upset if I dont listen to her and my fiancé gets upset if I dont listen to him. He knows where I can get insurance for the becr 2.5 months. Also if I quit I am not jobless I actually have another job. Still would cover my half of the rent. What should I do?

My daughter has been sneaking out since she was 12. She stole liquor from her 23 year old friends. The girl disobeys my rules and I can't kick her out because she's still a minor. She started becoming less and less involved with school since 7th grade, when she first met this group of much older friends. These older women haven't done anything illegal but I guess they've influenced her somehow.

He snapped at me when I was being manic Saturday. When I tried to kill myself he said he loved me and how much it would hurt him to lose me but that was two years ago, he does not love me anymore. I am 23 and have no father now, do I bother to go on or do I just end it and make today my last day? My father does not love me, I am an unloved Do I bother to go on fatherless or do I simply end it now?

Today, like many other days, I had an argument with my mom. It started when she claimed that I wasn't trying hard enough to find a job. (I'm 17, about to be a senior in high school, but I need a job necause my mom doesn't have a lot of money and can't afford anything besides my necessity's.) I asked her why she couldn't teach me how to find a job, especially since I spent 2 hours helping her edit her resume, and she got angry. Her issue was that she helps me with everything else, like giving me food, shelter, clothes, ect. so me helping her with her resume meant nothing. She used to complaing about how I didn't help her clean around the house. So, recently I made more of an effort. Today, she told me she didn't give a shi* if I helped or not, because she's been doing it for 17 years and I can never repay her. I know she cares if I help, that's why she get's so angry when I don't, but she denied it and said, "I don't care if you help me, but if you don't, don't ever ask me to do shi* for you, ect." It sucks because I'm trying to help out more, but it feels like it means nothing to her because I've only been doing it for a month. I tried to tell her what I've been doing to help, but she feels like I'm bragging, and she doesn't have to appreciate the things I do. Instead, she said that I should be thanking her for allowing me to help out and give back to her. I'm very sensitive and I cry when my mom yells, so one way to fix this is by staying calm. What are some other ways?

i'm probably a 6/10 - ouisideof home - i feel pretty and my sister is like 8/10 — around family when she's around i feel really ugly mum always randomly goes to my sister and says your so beautiful - may you not get the evil eye - i keep prayin on you - you look like me and chelsea (me) looks like your dad. i'm the older sibling. at a wedding a lady wanted to set her son up with my sister. her son is my age... my mum started telling people "they overlooked chelsea and want anna for their son! they just love how anna looked" she just kept going on and on about it. it's really affecting me now idk what to do - i just feel ugly and i love my mum but this is making me not like her advice?

My father is extremely controlling and has been ever since he's moved to the uk (so basically all my life) he never talks or listens to what I'm saying and tries to manipulate other people especially women weather if his sister or his wife to please him.He's never wanted to form a relationship with me and is even an euntripiner so he is always stressed out and has no family time.He doesn't see the point in family, friend cannot connect to people and is a workaholic.If you don't listen to his rules he rages and hold a grudge

I am a 25 y/o man whose visits to my mom's house are VERY unsettling because of her boyfriend who has no job and is openly sexual. For example... 1. While the 3 of us had dinner at my grandma's, he expressed his love for my mom by saying how he hates when she has to leave in the morning to go to work when they're cuddling in bed — "Nooo, stay with Daddy." 2. When he asked if I have a girlfriend and I said I don't, he did a stroking (masturbation) gesture at his crotch area (right in front of my mother) and said, "You can't just be doing THIS all the time." 3. After watching the news about a neighborhood groper, he referred to my mother's breast as her "titty" while expressing how overprotective he is of her — "I would kill any man who touched your mother's titty!" 4. While the 3 of us watched a movie in the living room, he pulled off my mom's sock and started kissing her foot. THIS is where I got fed up: Recently when he got home, he casually showed me the DVD cover of a porno he bought from a street corner, then played it in living room. When my mom got home from work, he just continued watching it, to which she saw him in there. My mom raised me all by herself with no male companionship, so he is her first real boyfriend since after I turned 18. I guess she settled instead of being picky, thus letting his jobless, creepy self move in with her. Am I in the wrong here? I NEVER said anything to her, but I'm sure she can read the disgust on my face. Please help.

My little sister is 19. Her ex boyfriend is almost 20. She really cared about him, would never shut up about him. They were in love. He'd visit us as work and she'd still go on her days off just to see him. And it got discovered that he was messing with an older woman, old enough to be his mother. My sister was seriously heart broken and angry with him. But she's been missing him cause she's seen him with other girls on social media and when I saw him at a store it was awkward. But she's planning on going to his house for Netflix and chill. He's been sweetening her up calling her sweetheart. I think she wants him back cause she's jealous. I think she still loves him. But I seriously doubt he intends on getting back together. He's got issues and she wants to help him. It's like the bad boy thing

Or is that something that should be watched in the privacy of the bedroom, since her son is in the house. NOT because he's too young, but because he would feel uncomfortable seeing his mother observing her boyfriend watching a porn in the living room.

Y'all okay so I'll make it short Me and my sister were arguing over text I sent a message on my iPhone and it sent blue then I went to check if she replied and it was now green and said "sent as a text message " under the text did she block me? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can they be called rules?Watch at the picture.I,m a house wife, I,m still friendly with my family, but I only want they know what I want out of them( I don,t fight them), so that we can live a more better life that can continue. My list looks logical, I think.

A violent, bitter, cold wind will be sent; no believer will be left on earth except that that wind will envelop him. Then the Hour will arrive upon the people. An angel with the horn will stand between the heaven and the earth, and he will blow into it. Every single creation in the heaven and in the earth will die. Then whatsoever Allah wills will occur between the two blows Then Allah will send water from underneath the Throne. Their bodies and flesh will grow from that water, just as (crops of) the earth grows from irrigation." "Then an angel will stand with the horn between the heaven and the earth, and he will blow. Each soul will head to its body and enter into it. And then they will rise, standing to the Lord of all that exists."They will decompose in the graves, and when they hear the shout, the souls will return to the bodies and joints, some of them to the others When they hear the second blowing, the people will rise, standing on their legs.They will shake off the dirt from their heads, and the believers will say, 'How perfect You are! We did not worship You as You truly deserve to be worshipped

My dad has been verbally and physically abusing me for years and still does. My grandmom lives with us and she encourages and enables him. Today again he abused me and it turned physical. While i was being beaten up i pushed my dad and punched my grandmother in the face breaking her nose as a form of retaliation and to release my anger from all these years of abuse. So do you think what i did was wrong?

I'm 21 and he's 22 so I know we are a little too old to be fist fighting but it was because I had his iPhone because mine was dead. I ended up dropping his phone. I did not mean to drop it. I even said sorry but he started cussing at me saying I need to buy him a new phone. I ended up cussing back because nothing was even wrong with phone, it's not cracked or anything. So one thing led to another and we were punching each other. Now even though I'm the younger brother. I'm taller and bigger do I tried not to hurt him but he was trying to hurt me. Punching me hard in the face. So I threw him to the ground and we then we walked out the store. I tried getting away but he kept trying to fight me in public. Long story short, my parents took (mostly my mom) took his side. Because he told them I attacked him at the store. So I look like the bad guy even though i apologizes. Was this my fault? Idk what to do? My brother isn't talking to me and I'm not talking to him.

My dad is abusive. He abuses me verbally and physically. I do retaliate as well with abusive language. But when i do it leads to fights at home and it ruins the atmosphere of the whole house. I am seeking therapy. My therapist and my mom decided that i will not retaliate anymore so the house is more peaceful. Now my dad abuses me even more.Keeping quiet is ruining my peace of mind. The abuse is unbearable. While retaliating at least i would get some of the stress out now i can't.The abuse is unbearable.

My fiance has anger issues stemming from being beaten by his father. We have a 6 month old daughter together. He doesn t have a driver s license or permit, but he drives perfectly fine. He works third shift at Walmart. He comes home always in pain. We ve been together almost 2 years. My mother and I are trying to get him to focus on priorities instead of playing video game on his xbox. And now he wants to move back in with his parents because he feels stressed. I m heartbroken and don t want him to leave, and he only wants to leave because of my mother. I refuse to move back to his parents because his stepmother feels the need to KEEP my baby. Someone please give me advice! Btw we are both 19

I am not even joking. Suddenly, just suddenly, my mom told me and my brother if we have to use the bathroom, we have to go outside. First of all, I am female. We pee differently. We pee sitting down. Pee will drip down our legs. We can't even use toilet paper! This is poor hygiene! I want this to stop, because it is unfair, and horrible parenting, and she could be taken away by the police. I don't want that. Talking doesn't help. She just yells at us because we are IMPERFECT BEINGS, which, by the way, if you don't know, EVERYONE IS. I want to seek revenge, but I don't want to get into trouble. Please help. This is NOT a good rule.

My child and I are going on a super long trip, it's over 20 hours to visit my mom. She lives abroad and recently bough a new condo (which I helped her to pay for, if it matters). When we bought tickets and packed our stuff my mom told me that she rented a place for us (which I am going to pay for) because she doesn't want to see us in her new place. She is afraid that we can mess up her new condo, she is a bit obsessed with cleaning... constantly. I am honestly hurt. We spent so much money to come and see her and now I have to pay a lot of money for some random condo she found for us, where we are going to stay. It is not about me or my child it is about pretty much anyone, she doesn't want anyone in her home. In the meantime, she always visits our house and even has her personal room in there. Please let me know your thoughts. I am just trying to understand my mom, we are all different and I have a bit different priorities than my mother. Well, now if I will cancel the trip I will loose airfare. She clearly doesn't want to see us in her place and told us about it at the last minute. Lesson learned, I doubt I will visit her again

I have a little cousin who is 12. His mom past away making it his dad s job. His dad (also my cousin) sells drugs, and has a gambling problem. Anyway he leaves his son at my grandpa s house (who s in jail) alone for days. There s not much food either. Also with no phone, no key, nothing. He s not beating him or anything so it s not much we can do. Really. It s just not right. Like his son doesn t go outside, have money for anything, and his dad doesn t take him places. Also sometimes brings his son to his ex girlfriend who is mentally abusive and his kids are bullies. His son is smart enough to make his own choices and says he hates it, and wants to come to my house. I m telling his dad he can stay with me, (we re only like 15 minutes away!) And I have an extra room and I can t actually take him places so he can enjoy summer, and get on track for school ect. But his dad just says "no" he doesn t want help, and he wants him to watch for mail.... Take care of the house pretty much. I feel helpless. His son is unhappy and still has trouble reading, obviously just needs better care. He has a lot of potential and I want to help. Is there anything I should do? Or is it just something I have to accept.

I'm 19. My father has never really been there for me emotionally. He works really hard for our family yes, does not have any bad habits or never abused of us physically, but emotionally he kills us. He is always serious, never comes to me or my brother to talk to us, always yelling about everything. He thinks that whenever people do something they're doing it to impress him, he loves to be on top of everything to be the only one that is doing things right, is a perfectionist. Only memories I have of him from my childhood are of him yelling at me. I gave him a present this Christmas, he left it under the tree for 3 days (i picked it up) he didn't even say thank you because the shirt I got him was an M and he likes it Large... however if you don't react happy to the gifts he gives you he goes and complains to my mom with tears in his eyes "I don't understand why she treats me like that" it is ridiculous ironic. One guy from work told my mom once "you are the only one that stands him" and honestly he was so right. He uses sarcasm for everything, yells for everything. BUT if you tell him anything about a mistake he's made he will tell you something like "sshh ssshhh shut up" or something rude like that. He always complains to my mom "with tears in his eyes" that I'm not nice to him, but I can't stand not even having him next to be I just can't I hate him. Any advice????

So my son is 2 years old and im a man(26 years old) for the first time he asked me to take him to the bathroom (we were on a shopping center) but fortunately he were leaving to go home soo he peed in our home. He clearly cant pee standing neither pee sitting down because hes not tall enough to reach a public toilet (because we have a 2 toilets home and one his a litle one for him to do his needs). So what can i do when he asks me to take him to the bathroom when we are in a public place? Do i need to grab my son and make him put his feet in the toilet seat so he can pee? Do i grab his penis and i point it to the toilet and then i clean it with toilet paper? Or its easier to sit him on the toilet? Do i need to watch him pee? I know this is a stupid question but i would love to see some helpfull answers, thanks.

I posted a question asking about how I should go about feeding my 1 year old son and you people were rude and commenting stuff like :Shouldn't you know how to feed him? And telling me I should give him up for adoption.

One example is Lushaflor, who is a teen mom on Youtube. She is a 20 year old who got pregnant at 15. She now raises her baby on a minimum wage job. She works as a cashier at Yogurtland and I believe she has been working there for about 2 years now. Also, she hasn't been making much money off Youtube because her newer videos don't have that many views, only about 100k per video. Youtube only pays 3 dollars per 1000 views. Not to mention that when her baby was born, she moved in with her 16 year old boyfriend (now ex bf) who worked at Chipotle. She also mentioned multiple times that she has no plans to go to college. I used to like her because I thought she would become a successful teen mom and make a better life for herself and her baby but now I don't anymore.

As a child, my parents were pretty much gone all the time. I never really talked to family members very much. So I recently graduated from college and got a job I like. An older person asked me "So what are your plans in the future? Do you want to get married and start a family?". What's so great about that? Why not just save money, live comfortably, and enjoy myself?

I've been in China on an exchange program for the past month and a half. While I was there, I met a boy who's a rising senior (I'm a rising junior). We ended up becoming super close and giving each other our virginities. I've never met someone with whom I've had this much in common, but we knew a relationship wasn't practical, so we decided to keep in close contact and just be friends. Anyway, I came home a few days ago, and this morning, my dad asked to see my phone. Not unusual, since he sometimes looks through my messages, but this time, after five minutes of looking, he suddenly threw the phone and told me to "get the **** out of [his] house" because I'm "terrible" and "disgusting". Think he must have read some of our messages. Basically, he kicked me out of the house this morning, so I spent the next eight hours wandering the nearby area on foot, with no way of contacting anybody. When my mom finally dragged me home, my dad had thrown out all my merch from the program, threw out all my shorts and tank tops, confiscated my phone and computer, and who knows what else he did that I haven't discovered yet. Me and my parents then sat down for a two-hour long talk, during which I was continuously slut-shamed and told that I've disgraced this family, that I've cheapened myself, that my reputation is ruined, and that no guy will want me anymore. !! Please help !! EDIT: I'm honestly so scared that my dad's going to make me cut off contact with this boy, or that he's going to pull me out of my prep school, or that he'll put my electronics on lockdown, or that he won't let me have a social life this year. I don't know what he's so upset about though -- if I actually wanted to hide this guy from my dad, I would have deleted all our messages and photos together! I would have not labelled him as one of my closest friends! What is he even punishing me for?

I am 27 years old and live with my girlfriend, I am happy, I got my Degree in marketing and now own a small business and pays the bills. My father constantly calls me maybe 5 times a day and asks how my business is going, he wants the business that I have(odd). He asked me to go live with him out of state(not including my partner). He tried to force me to go on vacation same dates as him rather than me and my partner go at our own pace. He asks for money, for me to start him a business, for me to purchase his house. What is his problem? I just kinda wanna laid back and live my life?

My sister is in financial troubles, she lost her job and now risks losing her home too. She was going to go to the bank for a loan but I said I would give her the money which I did, she asked me not to tell anyone. I told my partner, my (adult) children, our mother and our other siblings. Everyone is concerned for her and called her to see how she is. She is angry at me and gave me the money back I loaned her and she said she would rather sleep on the streets than ask for my help again. Why is she angry at me? When she said don't tell anyone I didn't think she included family.

Having multiple kids keeps you from getting richer. I'm studying to become a nurse practitioner and my husband is an engineering manager. We live in a luxurious apartment and in 15 years or so, we can probably afford to buy a mansion. If we ever have kids, which we won't do until many years to come, we won't have more than one.

I have 3 younger brothers and no sisters. I really want one, especially a girl my age with common interests. But if my parents could have a baby that'd be great too. They always say no! They tell me that we can't afford another kid and besides, if they adopt an teenage girl, she'll likely come with a baggage of trauma, abandonment and behavioural issues that we cannot handle. Well I can deal with it. All my life my brothers have been close. I'm treated differently from the boys and I can't relate to them, even if I try hard.
