Gifts for X-Mas
Posted Thursday November 29 2007, 4:32 pm
I finally am old enough to have a job, and that means more money to pay for Christmas gifts. Now, I am still tight, with nine members of just my immediate family to pay for. I am looking for gifts $25 and under, and are available IN STORES, not just online. I want specifics please (example: for a guy: scarf from LL Bean that's $20). Links are appreciated, but not necessary. I have gifts in mind, so I need the following:
1 gifts- men
3 gifts- women
Thanks in advance!

Okay my family isnt your average family... I have parents, and two brothers both like decades older then my. Scotts 19 turing 20 like 2 days after christmas and Jasons 17.

How do you tell someone to quit drinking?
Posted Sunday November 25 2007, 4:28 pm
My aunt lost two of the men she was engaged to. Then, recently her husband cheated on her with two different people & drove a truck through the wall of her house. So, yeah, she`s had a hard life. She didn`t know who to turn to I guess, so she started drinking & smoking. When you destroy 100,000 dollars worth of things because you`re mad at someone, you know you need help, right? Well, I guess she didn`t pick up on that. She has two kids, the girl is 15 & the boy is 13. My grandparents & parents talked to my earlier & they said that I`m the one that she "adores" more than anyone, more than her own kids. They think I should try talking to her now. The problem is I don`t know what to say to her. I know she (the yo...

12 year old sister in trouble? What do I do?
Posted Sunday November 25 2007, 1:02 am
I had NO idea. Over the last few years, since my family moved to where we are now (it's been 5 years), my sister hasn't been making the greatest friends and gets in fights with them a lot, but I didn't know she was turning into such a bad kid. I'm 15 years old, I've never touched alcohol and neither have most of my friends, never even thought about smoking or drugs or anything.
My sister is 12. I know it's wrong to snoop but I looked at her journal thing cause she left it out and every single line is something bad she did. She drinks beer when no one is home or when she is with friends. She steals cigarettes from my mom, gives them to her friends, and she has tried one. Apparently she cut herself once.
What the hell do I...

UGH god my sister...
Posted Monday November 19 2007, 5:00 pm
So i have this sister. We never used to fight but lately everything she does pisses me off and visa versa. I talked to my mom about it but all she said was stand up to her whenever she says something mean. She always says, "Im so much faster than you" (we both run) and "Since im better than you i thought you wouldnt care" and i always stand up to her and she always makes me feel like i am ten years younger, when shes only 3 years older than me. What should i do?

is it wrong for me to feel like im being used
Posted Saturday November 17 2007, 4:44 pm
I’ve been married now going on 3 years to a beautiful Mexican woman but things have been bad from the very beginning.....
she has a son 17 years old he does not do well in school since he has come to live with us the first year he got A's and the after that F's he never leaves his room is all ways on the pc and all ways makes excuses not to do his chores around the house.
Just about every argument me and his mother get in are about the fact that he does not take care of his responsibilities’ try being very nice about how I bring the subject up but no matter what she acts like I’m trying to hurt her son.
The last argument was because he was making excuses why he could not mow the lawn.
