CONTROLING WIFE Posted Friday May 23 2008, 11:12 am
oK, we have been married for 10 years, i have this problem with my wife. i do not say anything about when she goes places and does things with others, but everytime i find a male friend or anything she doesn't say anything to me but, actions are louder than words. she tends to distance herself from me and acts like she is pissed off and mad at me when we do something and i try not to do it on her time. Example. my wife had to go to work so my male friend and his girlfriend wanted to come over and eat pizza and have a beer after the kids when to bed. they were not even at my house 2 hours. everytime someone pulls in my driveway her sister and mother is texting her telling my wife that someone came over or whatever. Next thing you know, me an...

crazy sister Posted Thursday May 22 2008, 9:43 pm
Me= 16/f/usa
sister= 19/f/usa
German Boy= 16/m/germany
My sister turned 18 last summer and then spent 6 months in Europe. WHile she was away, we were joined by a foreign exchange student from germany who is living in her old bedroom. The He and I are both 16 so we have a similar mindset and we agree that eversince my sister has returned, she thinks that she is an adult. Legally she is an adult, but I dont think it is very mature to constantly tell your guest and little sister that they are "soooooo immature". Plus, we hate her stupid ditzy friends.
I have never had a very good relationship with my sister, and quite honestly i have always felt that she is an idiot. Now she goes to communi...

my first job Posted Wednesday May 21 2008, 5:33 pm
So I got a job at a local fast food restaurant. I've been working there for a month now. I just got my fourth paycheck today, and I brought it home and instead of giving it to my parents to put in my bank account like I usually do, I kept it and told them that i wanted to spend part of it on some new clothes and things. I'm 17 years old this Saturday and they told me that I couldn't spend any of my money. it really made me mad and I walked off and now they're mad at me. I haven't gone shopping in nearly four months, and even when I do I don't spend a lot. I don't understand why they won't let me use any of the money that I earned. I'm so sick of hearing them tell me to save for the future and college and crap like that. I'm seventeen years ...

ok this is my situation that i need solved:
so the other day i was coming home from kick boxing class and my mum calls and says they are near the area... so knowing that my dad is with them i didn't want to bump into them because i was dressed in a tight v cut tshirt and jeans (sometimes he freaks out when he sees my collar bones and arms and starts calling me names like slut and slapping me around but at others he is completely okay) a couple of blocks farther down the road is a place where me and my sister wanted to take drawing lessons so i went to the store to register but the lady says that they have no space so i ended up going back in the direction where i came from (towards the boxing studio and home) on my way back i...

loving your family Posted Monday May 19 2008, 9:25 pm
im 15/f and lately i've been feeling distant from my parents. we're never on the same page about anything. and i made a little mistake when school let out and now they dont trust me at all. and my sisters and i are always fighting. and they both wanna copy everything i do. one of them is a brat and future slut and the other is completely behind on EVERYTHING in life. shes almost 13 and she refuses to shave, wear deodorant, and wear bras. and they are always bugging me and never leave me alone. and i just wish they'd leave me alone.

Not missing my step-kids Posted Monday May 19 2008, 2:28 pm
I have been on vacation for 2 weeks with my 1yr old daughter. This is my first vacation away from my two step-kids, 8&9 and my husband. Its been 2 weeks and I dont seem to miss them at all. I know that sounds horrible but they are horrible kids. They talk back, never listen, mean to their half-sister, physically hurt each other and my 1yr old, the list goes on and on. I have been a part-time step mother to them for 4yrs. What is wrong with the way i feel? Should I tell my husband the way I feel?

Incest ? Posted Monday May 19 2008, 10:18 am
My 12 year old sister has been making moves on me for like 2 or 3 months now. She'll take any chance to rub her body against me, she has big breasts and they get in the way if we have any physical activities but she specifically likes to do weird stuff like smother my face with them if we wrestle or whatever.
I try to avoid her mostly but she comes to me like to play around or wrestle and if I don't play with her she will just get on top and ignore the fact that I'm ignoring her.
I'm 18 and I have a girlfriend so this feels wrong on so many different levels. I've told her to cut it out but she doesn't seem to be getting the message.

I need help on what to do Posted Sunday May 18 2008, 9:51 am
Here's the problem:
I am over $5000 in credit card debt. A lot of it is due to the fact that I've had to help my mom on a lot of stuff. I do love her a lot, but it's getting to the point to where I cannot keep doing this. I'm 22 years old and want to live my own life, but I don't make enough money to get my own place right now and even if I was making enough, all my money right now would be going towards the bills. I not only pay my credit card bill, I also pay all the utility bills and the rent for where I live. My mom dosen't work which makes it hard. The one thing I do hate about her is the fact that she smokes cigerattes and a lot of them. I hate buying her cigerattes because a carton is $43 And I have to buy like...

Ugh,annoying overly-christian parents! Posted Saturday May 17 2008, 9:31 am
We have a little family bible worship service each Saturday, against my will. We just read through Proverbs and lately the chapters we've been reading have this "child discipline" things in them . Like " Spare the rod; spoil the child." It's friggin driving me CRAZY! My parents always choose those verses when we come to the part where we are supposed to share what we felt was the important verse to us out of the things we read. (we read one verse ech.) Each time my dad cracks some joke like "yeah, take out the rod!" and my mom babbles on about how it's right and every parent should discipline and BLAH BLAH BLAH!In front of me! And lots of time directed to me!My parents they I should always obey an do what they ...

Sibling Visitation Rights Posted Friday May 16 2008, 6:42 pm
So, hopefully someone on here knows something about law. I have a half-sister that lives with my dad. I am out on my own and have been trying to see her as much as I can given my work and school schedule, but my father is making it very hard to see her, telling her she can't go out with me when I have time to see her etc. I was wondering if there is such a thing as a right to see your siblings. I cannot simply go over there and see her because of a conflict between my father and I, so what I can do?

abuse? Posted Wednesday May 14 2008, 8:05 pm
When I was little and did something bad, my parents used to beat me with a leather belt, however, they only did that when I did something bad (threw a tantrum, talked back rudely, wouldn't listen, etc). When I got these whippings, they hurt (a lot, like somebody slashing your butt numerous times with hot sharp knife).
In my parent's country, that was just the way you disciplined children who were bad. But they did it here, in the USA. (So I really believe they thought they were doing the right thing.)
Now, my last whipping was when I was 11 (I'm 17 now), but I was just wondering, was that abuse? And my parents are wonderful parents and I love them a lot, so don't tell me to report it or something.

My brother... Posted Wednesday May 14 2008, 3:57 am
From primary to high school, my older brother has ALWAYS been ..well..a nerd. he worse glasses, braces, tucked his shirt into his pants, worse his pants really high, got A's in everything.
Then he went off to university.
We didn't see him for a year because of this huge family problem going on (long story) and then when he came to visit us over the summer (so he'd been in uni for a year) he was covered in piercings, some tattoos, cool hair, cool clothes, but then excellent grades.
My mom burst into tears the second she saw him.
She said that he wouldn't be able to get a job (he's intending to be a lawyer) but he's already done work experience, and at that particular place, they don't give a crap about his two li...
