Is it true? Posted Saturday November 10 2007, 9:35 am
One day my cousin came to visit us and was telling us about how much her dad hates her because he never stops yelling at her for anything she does and she doesn't do anything worng.
Then my dad interjected "You idiot! He yells at you a lot because he loves you the most!"
And then she looked at my little brother because evryone knows that he yells at him the most.
Is it true? I thought I was his favourite, I'm the only one out of the three siblings who even like him at all.
And if it is true, how? I don't get it, it doesn't make sense

Thanksgiving dinner Posted Friday November 9 2007, 5:55 pm
I am going with my girlfriend's family for Thanksgiving this year to her family friend's house, and I was wondering:
1) What should I bring? (gifts, food, etc)
2) What should I talk about?
3) General advice about girlfriend's parents.
This is not the first time meeting her parents, but the first time really having a conversation with them.

Your Opinion Posted Thursday November 8 2007, 2:10 pm
I would like to hear some opinions on 14, 15 and 16 year olds having sex. I personally find it heartbreaking when I read these questions from these young people asking about sex and if they are doing it right. They don't even know about the other consquences BESIDES pregnancy and HPV, STDs such as STIs and emoional consequences.
I am only 20, so it wasn't long ago I was this age, and I find this to be ridiculous! What happened to true love? Or waiting until marrige? It seems to me these girls just want to be popular with the boys and the guys want to be popular among boys. Is it just me? Am I crazy?

How do I tell my parents? Posted Wednesday November 7 2007, 1:22 pm
17/f I have a new boyfriend who is really lovely and nice and sweet and is a really decent guy. The thing is, he's not exactly "parent-approval" material, and I just know for a fact my parents would hate him. I don't normally keep the fact I have boyfriends secret from parents, but this time it feels different. For a start, I broke up with my ex pretty soon before I started dating this guy, and my parents LOVED my ex and were quite sad to see us split up! This was still only about 2 months ago.
Also, I've been going to his and seeing him a lot recently. I collapsed about two weeks ago at his house (nothing to do with him!) and lied at my parents about where it happened and said it was at a friend's, and if I told them now t...

should i write my mom a letter Posted Saturday November 3 2007, 11:46 pm
My mom gives me mixed messages on things I buy. She will tell me she doesn’t care how much or what I buy but sometimes when we go to a store and I am going to buy she says you don’t need it or it is ugly so I wont buy it: (But the jewelry I do buy which is a lot my mom admires and tells me it is beautiful.) Here are examples:
(1) This past summer We were at a crafts fair and I was looking at rings and I had a few in my hand and she said "how many are u going to buy" later on she said she did not care what or how much I brought. She told me that the only reason she did not want me to buy the rings was because they were ugly. (They were ugly and that was why I put them back and did not buy the rings) ((THIS IN...

My mom thinks I'm a bad kid! Posted Saturday November 3 2007, 10:47 pm
My mom constantly thinks I'm doing something wrong, but she used to buy me and my friends beer and stuff and even tried to get me more drunk than I already was once. I will admit I'm not perfect, but the worst thing I've done is smoke (cigarettes) and then drink with her permission. But now she asked me if I was sniffing WD-40! I dont think thats even possible! And she always thinks im lying. What do I do?

Parents just don't understand! Posted Wednesday October 31 2007, 5:13 pm
I don't know what to say or do. I graduated college a few months ago, and now my parents are on my back about doing something with my life, as they like to put it. I got in a huge fight with them over this, and I have ZERO support from them.
-what I want: job/internship in magazines to gain experience, and then eventually go to grad school.
-what they want: get a job, and apply to grad school at the same time.
I want to get job experience BEFORE I apply to grad school (journalism), but that is something they absolutely fail to understand. I don't know what to tell them...it's as though every chance they get, they're on my back about this.
I had a terrible day thinking about it, and it always makes me feel like complete crap.
What should I do?

Shouldn't Parents Live together? Posted Sunday October 28 2007, 5:28 pm
I visited my grandparents a few weeks ago and totaly loved it there, I saw all my old friends (I used to live there when I was 9), and the youth groupe rocked! I told my mom how much I loved it there and she asked if I wanted to move there. I told her yes but I ment my entire family. My mom really misses it back in her home town and wants to move there and has made arangements to move back there but without my dad. They aren't getting a divorce but they still aren't going to live together for like 3 years. Mom says that there marriage will last, but I can't help but think that she is sacrificing here marriage for me... should I tell her that i don't want to move (I really do) because she says that we won't if I don't want to.

Staying Chill Through All The Drama Posted Saturday October 27 2007, 5:10 pm
First off, I've finally found that it's time to ignore the people in my life who only want to cause trouble, or start nonsense drama. And I've managed to stay really happy now, in fact, happier than I've ever been in my life so far. But now, I'm having family drama with my parents. I feel like I'm in the middle between the two of them when they're arguing. So my question is faily simple, how do I manage to stay happy or at least sane, through all of the drama?
