Ok so I'm 18 and have a 6 year old sister. For some reason this kid constantly tells our mom lies about me and things I do, AND I ACTUALLY GET IN TROUBLE. For example, today she told my mom I called her "the b word" when I didn't even talk to her at all!? And I was the one in the wrong as always? How do I deal with this? My mom is always on her side and never disciplines her for lying. I don't know what to do.

We are in New Jersey and so inside for a month or two. We have to eat food but she gets furious when I go on my skateboard to the grocery store. We have little food left and she says we can't go outside. My older sister drove to the grocery store and now my mother is screaming at her for trying to kill the whole neighborhood with this Coronavirus thing (my sister doesn't even have it). I would go with my sister but she won't let me in her car cause she says her friends don't like me (I am 14 and she is 17 but I am more mature and nicer). So here I am hiding from my drunk mother for the next few months. No school till September. My Dad and step-mother get me in June but not before then. How do I deter her from drinking so she won't be so bizarre and angry? She literally thinks we can go without food until this Coronavirus Pandemic ends. I actually miss school.

My grandpa fought in Guadalcanal. He passed away last month and he made me promise to him that once dead I'd have his ashes scattered in Guadalcanal where hundreds of his fellow Marines lost theirlives for our freedom. Now,obviously there's the Covid 19 right now so I would necessarily go once this is over,but the thing is: once it is over,should I go to Guadalcanal? I have his ashes in my living room right now but everytime I look at that I tear up about the fact that he wanted to be with his fellow Marines again...It seemed it was really important for him when he told me. I will spend thousands of dollars to go there and he will never know and he won't be here to check but I feel that if I don't I'll regret this. Would you do go?

They won't friend me on Facebook cause their Dad doesn't speak to my Mom and step-father so I don't see how redneck they are otherwise. I do know their mother and her brother had relations so redneck like in that way.  

I feel alone very alone. I love my Dad but I don't think he loves me. He mocks me for everything I do. I do well in school but with the straight A's I get the more upset he gets at me saying I am trying to make my brothers look bad. I never go out of my way to make my brothers or anyone look bad. I just want to get good grades so I can go to a good college. When I am home I stay in my room a lot to avoid confrontation with my Dad he has never been physically abusive but verbally he has. I don't get it I am not a bad kid I don't smoke or drink my best friend is a good kid too. I have never gotten in trouble at school. This is really tearing my self-esteem apart. Is there something I can do to change this? Also my Mom isn't in the picture she passed away from cancer. My parents divorced when I was eight.

She said she's been trying to help me for years. She says I never want to do what's right and she just doesn't know what she's going to do with me. She says owning a business is not a job.  I have to work 9 to 5. I like making money on my own but she says it doesn't count. She tells me I'm not normal. It's been going on for years and years she's never happy I just don't understand. She goes to these meetings on Wednesday nights and sits around the table with other parents and they talk about how their kids are crazy and mentally ill. I went to the meeting and my mom never went back she looked really upset. A lady sitting next to me said that I exposed her what does that mean.

I am 27, my cousin is a 13-year-old girl. A few months back her mom found out she secretly made an Instagram account. Because she can never tell her daughter no, which is probably part of the problem, she asked me to add her on and follow her and make sure she follows me back so I can keep an eye on her. I did it, even though this really isn't my responsibility. Because someone has to do it.  She has almost a thousand followers, her photos are borderline inappropriate and it seems she just adds anyone.  When I saw that a man a bit younger than me commented "beautiful :)" on a video of her and her friends dancing in short shorts and tank tops, I told her mom. She finally did something and stopped her daughter from using the app. A few weeks later she made another account and that was suggest to me to follow. This time I got one of my friends to follow her, she accepted and once again she posted the same content.  I messaged her with my own account and told her what she's doing is dangerous and she's too young for this. I also told her she can't keep going against her mom's wishes like this. No one is trying to stop her from living, but these things she's doing are too much for a person her age. There's too much at risk.  She said her life is none of my damn bussiness and she thinks she's much more mature than other girls her age. And that proves how immature she really is.  If I were her parent, I'd scare reality into her. But I'm not, so I can't.  Ran out of space. Is there ANYTHING I can do? What if she gets hurt? Letting the world eat up a young adult is one thing, but she is a child. She has no idea what she's doing, she has no idea what's out there.  Her mom would give her infinite chances and probabaly will. 

I have a lot of mental health issues that make me an unfit parent at this point in time, my therapist has deemed so as well. My mom raising my child was my choice, since she owns her own home. Now she's behind on home taxes and is in jepoardy of losing her home. I currently live with my mom's mom and offered to move out so she and my child can move here should she lose her home and she declined. I don't have thousands laying around for home taxes to help her, but taking back my child isn't a viable option for either of us so I'm unsure what to do? Yes, I pay child support, voluntarily, so, I have no issue supporting my child. I've told my mom for years if she needs to work we'll figure out financing daycare and that I won't stand in her way if she needs to take me to court to get an order in writing. I can't force her to work, unfortunately. Also, my grandmother is very old, I highly doubt who lives here makes a difference to her so long as they are helping her with what she needs to.  I am getting a second job, but the fact is I'm going to need to finance my own place at some point in the near future so no, her taxes are not my responsibility, my child, however is, hence why I'm involved in the situation.

I have told her multiple times she should write a book. She also is literally the best at everything. Her cleaning skills, and house and gardening skills are the absolute best. Nothing measures to her cooking, she it Italian and Greek. I could go on and on. However, this new step-father situation is very new, since she is now married for a 3rd time, and I have tried my best to adjust, however it is very difficult. I won't deny how hard of a worker he is, ALMOST as much as my mom, and dare I say, me. Only because he flunked out of high school, and he is lucky to be so rich, do to inheriting his father's pellet company. He is very generous, and I am trying to be the bigger person, so I WILL give him credit for investing his money well, and letting us move into his beautiful home. There are perks, but their are flaws as well. He his kind of like a big baby, and he is just a grumpy old man to everyone except my mom. I think it is because he is dieting and is experiencing mood swings because he is deprived of carbohydrates. He is always barging into conversations I have with my mom and putting his nose where it doesn't belong. Possibly to defend my mom, which makes no sense because she is also the strongest women I know. I just wanna be like "I wasn't talking to you!! She's my mom, and who has known her for 16 years rather than two? Me..." Please come back for final part:)

should contact my sons paternal grandparents if his father has no interest in him? I've been debating on whether I should contact them to let them know they have a 2 month old grandson because I'm not sure if their son ever told them about his existence. What should I say to them? I have no idea what I would say 

They never teached me anything about having a life, Being social, feeling positive emotion, having fun with other people. It was bad enough that i have Aspergers and adhd and was separated from my friends in school. All they ever cared about was drudgery.

Why should I move to Chinatown to compete for jobs and resources and money that I won't win, with the prize of course if I did win, is that I take away from them what they have. I have nothing in common with them. I have no desire or care to compete with them. I have no qualifications or background to say anything more to them, than hello, how are you.. And frankly it would be a humiliation to expect them to really do a damn thing for me.. I solve my own issues or turn to MY people for my issues as they arise. :P

My dad still has his job and makes $181,000.00 a year but due to coronavirus at my local school my mom lost her job.  My mom who was msking $16,000  a year (it's a part time job she works half a day). Will losing this $16,000  a year greatly impact my family.

Six year daughter asked her dad why is daddy cooking dinner his reply you can go without .  Then mom and dad want to verbally go at it for 30 minutes.  Mom cooks 99% of the time. Oh she is my child she needs to stay in a child's place and not disrespect me according to the dad.  It's like really what is really going on.  I could see his point if she rolled her eyes, sighed or said his food was bad.  All this over some hotdogs and cheese.

My Mom and Dad are divorced I am 18 and have lived in one of the most rural counties in mid-western Ohio hometown has 4600 people. My Dad lives in a farmhouse on a farm with a basement and storm cellar but my Mom lives 45 minutes in another farm town in the next county over (Rural county also) in a town of 2500 people she lives in the middle of nowhere living in a modular home with a barn where she puts her car in but her house has no basement or storm cellar and her neighbors live over a mile down the road. I am scared for her because she lives alone and more and more tornadoes are hitting all over Ohio in recent years she would have nowhere to go not to mention I had 3 relatives on her side of my family die in a tornado in the 50's its scary. I am just looking out for my parents. I helped her buy a Noaa radio and find a generator but where she lives their is no shelter, she lives on a farm on a backroad. Im just worried We actually had a tornado pass by about 4 years ago that I watched pass through the field across the street from her house I watched it from the window. and every year their is a tornado warning for where she lives several times a year. I just don't want to see anything happen to her

is this true? i read the us and world leaders found out from NASA a massive asteroid is going to hit us and end life on earth and they created the covid 19 disease in a lab to distract us and help us stay home and spend time with loved ones before the earth is destroyed in order to avoid mass panic

When I was a child, my father married this woman called E. E spent the duration of her marriage with my father emotionally abusing me. (I.E. making me only watch the christian channel, making me wear old baggy clothes because my clothes made me look slutty even though my mom approved of the clothes, threaten suicide multiple time because I was a bad child. To name a few) while she was doing that, my father turned a blind eye. He never took my side in any of the arguments and he sometimes yell at me because of something E said that wasn't true.  I never told him about E's abuse out of fear that it would get even worse. Now as an adult, I've been diagnosed with Dermatilomania (skin picking disorder), ocd, and anxiety. I am trying to build an relationship with my biological father but in order for me to officially move on  and and try to rebuild what was lost, I need to get it off of my chest. I am still holding a lot of resentment and anger towards him because of how he didn't protect me as his daughter. I want him to know how his immaturity and neglecting me has cause me to lose trust in him and with people in general.  I'm aware that it's my fault that I never told him back then and I regret not doing so. I didn't know what to do- I was a child.  How should I try to tell him? Should i even try to rebuild something that might have never been built in the first place?
