I hate her sometime =[
Posted Saturday January 12 2008, 9:41 pm
My mom never gets off my case. She's always yelling at me for something or disappointed in me. But my sister gets treated like a frickin angel when she's just as bad as me. I hate her sometimes to the point that i want to run away but i'd have no where to go. What can I do to get her off my case?

Snooping mom
Posted Saturday January 12 2008, 7:09 pm
I found out my mom was snooping into my life about two weeks ago. She had an Xanga of mine bookmarked and in it I wrote as if it were a private diary .. which I thought was on a private setting in fact.
There was a lot of very bad stuff in there and when I realized she was snooping I deleted it and made a new one. Well, she managed to find the new one too! Once again, its bookmarked as well as my Facebook. My diary has since gone missing as well. She has not told me about reading any of this but I know its her because its on her personal laptop.
What should I do?
My privacy is gone and I feel violated by my
own mother. She gets very offended if I don't tell
her everything in my life anymo...

Divorce?
Posted Saturday January 12 2008, 12:40 pm
Picture This:
You live in a 8000 sq foot home. You have a 13 year old, a 10 year old and a 5 year old. You've been married for 15 years. However, you're married to a man who calls your daughter a stupid bitch, and your sons dumbasses and idiots on occasion. He's called you a lazy, ungrateful, fat, stupid pig. You've been fighting since you met, and it only gets worse. He's abandoned you without a car, locked you out of the house, and is distant and shows no emotion for your kids. Your kids are upset.
You're an english teacher, and there's no way you could afford the house on your own, but you're not sure what to do with it because it's on your parents land and you don't want to sell it to someone who isn't family. Your...

Should I Say Yes??

Only now my nerves are getting the best of me.
I talked to Samantha yesterday......
Well last night....and TJ got on the phon and she was screaming "GET OFF THE PHONE"
I thought she'd killed someone haha just kidding. But she told me he wouldn't hang up the phone.
Anyway that's not the point.
I asked her if he really liked me and wrote that poem and she said yes, TJ wrote the poem and he likes you.
I doubt she'd lie as he was around.
Wel I finally told her I liked him too and now my stomach is in knots.
I probably won't see him til...

My fathers never been there!!!
Posted Thursday January 10 2008, 2:02 pm
I have never know my father, and I don't even know who he is. I have grown up without a positive role model and I have began to doubt all the choices that I have made. Every time I ask my family who he is I get two different stories, and then they change the subject. What should I do? I have nobody to turn to and I wish that I did. What should I do??

I'm tired of it... =|
Posted Sunday January 6 2008, 5:32 pm
My 15-year-old sister is horrible. I'm only two years younger than she is but she treats me like I'm some kind of slave to her or something. And it's all the time. I'm usually a really passive person about things like this, but I'm just downright sick of being forced to live with this kind of treatment from her.
I had my two friends, Rachel and Beth, over a couple nights ago and we went straight downstairs, keeping to ourselves, minding our own the whole time. Then my sister barrels down the stairs and yells at me in front of my friends because I didn't let the dogs in after they'd been let out. My sister called my dad and told him, "Dad, she hasn't been helping me all day and I've done all the work and her friends are s...

All my new years resolutions are broken.
Posted Sunday January 6 2008, 4:31 pm
I've planned to totally have it together for 2008. As in: I meant to treat my family properly, yet I've been worse than ever.
ie. my brother is twenty and has always been a late developer, however I find it hard to show him consideration.
HE WAS PLAYING THE SONG "BANANA PHONE" WHILE MOUTHING THE WORDS LIKE HE WAS SO ADORABLE AND I WAS DISGUSTED AND TOLD HIM HE'S TOO OLD TO THINK ANYONE WOULD FIND THAT TO BE CUTE.
I know I'm being a total bitch, so how can I keep calm and handle the situation in a positive way?

my stepdad
Posted Wednesday January 2 2008, 9:17 pm
My stepdad has been such an asshole lately. All he does is yell at me and tell me how lazy I am. I'm on the computer most of the time because I'm BORED and there's nothing to do at home. When he comes home, he goes "I see that you're on the computer again. What did you do around the house?" It's like he expects me to make sure that the house is in tiptop shape and everything has to be absolutely perfect for him. If I slightly disagree, he gives me a dirty look and tells me that he's going to take away my laptop if I keep arguing. It's like I have no say in the house. I know I'm only 15, but I hate it when he treats me like I'm dirt and worthless. He never praises me. If my brother has a wet diaper, he won't even change it. It's SO...

My mom knows everything.
Posted Wednesday January 2 2008, 1:42 pm
(15/Female)
Recently my mom found my Xanga, I swear I had it on a private lock so I used it as a private journal to deal with my depression and everything going on.
Well, she found it and read everything. She read about my anorexia, fooling around with boys, cussing, smoking, drinking, the one-time pot smoking, the times when I hated her. To make things worse, she was admitted to the hospital the day she found it. She hasn't talked to me about it yet because she's still in the hospital but I overheard her telling my dad she found it. This will be the third time I'll be in trouble this Christmas break. (She already found out about the messing around with boys thing, also about the pot smoking) But still, I'm afraid she ...

The Reason Why I Hate Coming Out Of My Room.
Posted Wednesday January 2 2008, 12:54 pm
My brother.
He hits me. Alot. And i know what your going to say, just a brother/sister thing. No, it really hurts. Not just a little, alot.
My mum, she just stands there not doing anything. Then when i start screaming at my brother, she then shouts at ME telling me not to shout at him!
Then i storm off upstairs and I get in trouble for it!
I can't talk to my mum because i know EXACTLY what she will say.
''Stop annoying him then''
I don't DO anything to him. I would just come downstairs one day and he would just start hitting me for no reason.
And sometimes we get along really well. And i don't know why he does it..
Any advice?
If it helps, I'm 14 and he's 16.
