i hate my stepmom. i kno hate is a strong word and well, my feelings are strong. she is sooo mean to me!! she doesnt like abuse me but the things she says really hurt. she always calls me fat (im 14 5'2 and 97 lbs.) and maybe thats fat but i dont think she needs to remind me of it every single day. i cant have friends over because she is sooo rude to everyone. i cant talk to my dad about it because he doesnt want to deal with it and i cant talk to her because she doesnt care. how can i ignore it? and pleaseeee dont say to talk to my dad. i really dont know what to do anymore.

thanks

You're SO not fat. 97 pounds? I'd kill to be that weight, lol. You're beautiful no matter what size or shape you are.

i have a situation similar to this... make as little contact as possible. Be civil and polite, so she can't complain, but attempt to keep the well-deserved snide remarks and rude comments to yourself. Stay over people's houses as often as possible, and do stuff with your friends. When you can't, lock yourself in your room and find things to do, like going on the computer, watching TV, listening to your iPod, or (when school starts) doing homework. It sounds like a lonely life (and it can be sometimes) but it will keep you sane and away from your stepmom.

Good luck and God bless.
