I would really like to move but I don't want to leave everything behind.
Posted Monday November 30 2009, 1:40 am
I live with my mother. I'll only be in high school one more year, but I'm wondering if I should spend it and this remaining year living with my father nine hours away by car. If I moved, I would be able to live in a nice house, where I would be taken care of well, and I could attend an art-focused school. These are my reasons for wanting to leave. But if I do move, I would have to leave all of my friends, abandon all the relationships I've made with them and teachers, and leave all the clubs I've joined. I know I'm going to have to leave them all soon anyways but it doesn't make it any easier, especially if I have to leave my boyfriend. I wonder if it's too late for me to leave or too soon. I should also mention the art college I hope to at...

Mom's long time boyfriend...call him dad?
Posted Friday November 27 2009, 11:03 pm
So basically, my mom's boyfriend who have been together since I was a little baby (I'm 15) has basically been my dad to me. I just started calling him my stepdad to people just because its just easier to say. a thought popped into my head one day and I thought about just calling him dad. But I feel like it would be completely awkward. I feel awkward just thinking about it. Like he was kind of on my bad side before last year for awhile because of his temper and him raising his voice and getting mad over the stupidest things. For instants, he yelled at me because I opened a drink, took a sip, didn't like it, put it back in the fridge saying I would get it back later, and he flipped because I just wasted something. I really hated him then. but...

my father needs to move out!
Posted Tuesday November 24 2009, 5:21 am
my father moved in 5 months ago, it was only supposed to be for 2 months...and I convinced my husband to let him stay here for the 2 months. Now he is watching my husbands tv eating our food and being way to comfortable in our house! and I feel bad because my husband wants to watch tv but wont change the channel if my dad is already watching it because he doesn't want to be rude. It is really starting to bug him...I can tell. my brother asked by dad to move in with him to help him out but by dad ignored the whole conversation, it seems like he doesn't want to leave!!! I want my normal life back but don't know how to tell him!!!

Going to live with my Dad?
Posted Saturday November 21 2009, 9:15 pm
Okay, so my Dad currently has a new home where he'd be staying there alone. In his apartment, he lived with his room mates. And 1 or 2 years ago, he had a stroke. Now, he's no longer going to be living with them, but alone. I think I should go live with him starting next semester of school, but my Mom is being you know.. motherly about it. She says to go live with him next year, but I'm pretty sure she'll change her mind about it.
I feel it's important for me to stay with me, even if I'm anxious and nervous since I'd have to totally move, and not live with my Mom anymore. I feel that it's really important for me to do so. If anything does happen to my Dad again and if he's alone -- then there will be no one to help him.
What can I do?

Cousin "following" boyfriend.
Posted Sunday November 15 2009, 2:43 pm
I have no idea what is the best way to approach the situation.
My cousin, I don't really know her well and we're like distant cousins.
My boyfriend, best friend, I know him very well.
So my cousin and boyfriend go to the same college, stay in the same dorm building. They've met before, but do not talk to one another.
One night my boyfriend goes to a party and texts me and tells me cousin is there. I'm like oh cool. Then he says she kept staring at him and was following him. He isn't the type to confront a female about weird things. I was thinking that was SO weird. She texted me and said she saw him there. Ok, cool. So another night my boyfriend goes out and she's there. Again she's follo...

So I was in my room last night and my mom just walked in to bring some towels in and there I was on my bed. :(
She didn't mean anything bad to happen she didn't even think I was there cause I snuck in to do it before I told her I was home. Stupid me!
Anyway, now she is looking at me differently.
What do I do about this?
Has this even happened to anyone else?

I am sorry to say that I have just found out that my brother is smoking weed! What do I do?
I am afraid that he will end up like his loser dopehead friends. :(
What can I do to help him? Anything? If I go to our parents they will probably kick him out if he won't stop it. I don't want him to hate me, but I want him to have a future and you know if he keeps doing this his future is gone.
Help? Anyone?

about to turn 17 in 14 days.
I'm aware of what being "emancipated" is and I understands the circumstances of it, but I'm in a stressfull situation where I really am dying to move out of my house. My parents and I do not get along & what I mean by this is we disagree on everything & are always arguying about the littlest things. Now I know what your thinking..why not try talking to them ? Or get counceling? Well trust me I've tried . I know me being my age is going to make it difficult for me to be able to find rent anywhere else but I refuse to be here any longer & I really am looking for some positive outside advice..I'm not looking to fix things between me and my parents I simply just want ...
