My "parents." =[
Posted Sunday March 4 2007, 3:59 pm
I keep crying cause of this and it's making feel so stupid. My father has always yelled/cussed at everyone about the stupidest things, which already upset me. But now, my mom is starting to start yelling at me about the dumbest things. I cried for about two hours cause of it the other day. Do I even have a reason to be crying? My mom used to be the only person I could talk to whenever my Dad upset me by yelling at me, but now I can't even talk to HER about it cause she just does the same thing. Is there something I can do to either take my mind off of it or get them to stop or SOMETHING?

crisis hot line
Posted Saturday March 3 2007, 2:45 pm
I called a hot line for crisis and abuse and I talked to the person there and I don't get why when I tell something they don't seem to help. They just ask questions like so what are you going to do about that? If I knew I wouldn't have called. Even one time this woman told me were a crisis line we talks about peoples problems. I came there to talk about problems and she acts like I am stupid or something. I can't stand my mom though.

my mom
Posted Saturday March 3 2007, 9:09 am
I called my mom an assh*** and an idiot because I was upset with her and she took away my computer for the whole Saturday, she stole all of my money I'd been saving up for years and won't give it back. (It was about $130.00) and she slapped my head three times. while I was doing my duty in the bathroom. Oh yeah, and she hasn't stopped yelling at me for an hour and I can't do anything this whole weekend. Did I deserve all of this being taken away? Did she overact?
And I told her sorry but she doesn't believe me. I need to hang out with my friends! But how can I?

Ridiculous dad?
Posted Saturday March 3 2007, 1:01 am
So, whenever I get home, the first thing I do is change in to my pajamas (I've been doing this for about three years now). I also change even if I know that my boyfriend is about to come over. He's been coming over for about six months now and we've been going out for a year and a half.
Today, my boyfriend came over. Of course, I was in my pajamas by the time he arrived. Whenever my mom and I brought him home, my mom said, "Your dad doesn't want you to wear pajamas when Andrew comes over anymore". My pajamas aren't skimpy. It's just a regular girls tee-shirt with capri type pants. I even wear a bra under my shirt as if it were daytime clothes.
What should I do? What is his logic behind this (I asked ...

Lost all trust.
Posted Thursday March 1 2007, 7:04 pm
I'm fourteen, female, and I've never done anything majorly bad in my life. My biggest mistake was probably insulting an idea a teacher had that got me yelled at by her, honestly. My parents used to trust me with anything, and it was great because I'm very responsible. But latley, I've grown up even more and they decided not to trust me at all. I've always had guy friends but they've never minded, and all of the sudden they're totally against my best friend as well. They keep me from seeing any of them, and when I ask why, they tell me to 'deal with it.'
I'm not sure what to do. I've tried countless times and ways to talk to them about what happened with the trust, but they simply don't answer with a reasonable statement. Please help, I want my life back. <3

MY family is breaking apart.
Posted Tuesday February 27 2007, 5:54 pm
My brother is 3 years and he's breaking my family apart. My family consists of only me, him and my mother. He's been acting really badly and it's been going on for the past 4-5 days. He's been pulling my hair, throwing down stuff, pulling my hair, banging into walls, breaking cups...and pulling my hair.
We try to enforce the naughty corner but he stays there for only 10-20 seconds. We've also been giving a little slap and pinch now and then..but he only laughs and pulls my hair more!
What can we do to get him to behave? I know this is wrong but I'm thinking of getttin a belt for him. I don't know...we're at the last resort right now and I'm terribly afraid that he'll grow to be a naughty bad child!
PLEASE HELP;
Distressed Sis!

question about girls in california.
Posted Tuesday February 27 2007, 3:13 pm
Are all the girls in california lets say in their 20's really crazy. I wouldn't think everyone is but mostly. in a way that they have bad intents on other girls, overly jealous of their boyfriend for example not trusting them enough. Because I know a woman who is from california and i think the reason she is wanting me to suffer is because she has some depression. If so how do I get them to not do bad things to me?

I feel like it's my fault, but is it?
Posted Sunday February 25 2007, 6:32 pm
My Dad was in an argument with my Mom like always today and he said, "YOU WONT LET ME TALK TO MY KIDS! YOU WONT LET ME HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM! WELL IN 2009, I'M MOVING! THE BASE (like a military base) IS BEING SHUT DOWN AND MOVING TO ILLINOIS AND I AM MOVING THERE WHEN THAT HAPPENS! WE ARE NOT HAVING TWO HOUSES AND I AM NOT STAYING MARRIED TO YOU! I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU THINK I LOVE YOU! I HATE YOU, YOU ASSHOLE!" Yes, and lucky me...I got to listen to it like always. To make this clear, my mom has never done anything to offend him and only tries to help him. I learned that all of my conversations with him turn into him yelling at me for something, so I try to stay clear of him and not bother him...my mother has nothing ...
