My Parents
Posted Thursday July 27 2006, 11:59 am
For the last couple of years my parents have been figting more and more. I don't really get along with my dad but I get along with my mom like we are best friends! So... my mom has this friend and we tell my dad we are going to dance class , but we are really going to his house! He is a really nice guy! My mom says that my dad and her will be divorced soon, and that we will move in with this other guy, but they will not get married. I really like this guy and I know that he will be better for my mom! Buy the way my dad hates this guy. Should I be worried about what my dad might do when he finds out we are living with him?

i just found out tonight at work that my sister went to the hospital for drugs and cut wrists, she's 16. parents are having some problems, now she doesn't want to go with either of them and she is still being held at the hospital with the doctors and can't be seen or spoken with over the phone untill some social worker clears things or something, i guess my question is, is there a way to speed up this process and to maybe sign a temporary guardianship so that i can bring my sister home? i don't want her in some pshyc ward forever, my girlfriend was in one for almost for the same reasons when she was younger and said that that experience was worse than the reality that made her do the things she did to get herself there in the fi...

family...how are they related?!
Posted Sunday July 23 2006, 9:50 pm
So, I've always wondered--you know how on TV they're like "Your mom's cousin's twice removed aunt.." or something like that? Well what does 'twice removed' mean?! Haha, it's so confusing.
Also, what would your grandfather's brother--make him to you?
