Sister-in-law is moving Posted Wednesday January 11 2006, 3:39 pm
My sister-in-law is getting married and moving away at the end of the month. I've only known her for a year now, and we've just started to bond. I'm really upset and depressed that she's moving and I want to do something for her. The problem is, I don't have a lot of money, or any idea what I should do or what I should get her.
Does anyone have any ideas of something special we could do together before she leaves, or something I could give to her? I really want whatever I do to make an impression, and I'm going to miss her a lot.
I'll leave more information if anyone needs it.

Child support Posted Monday January 9 2006, 12:56 am
My mom keeps giving my dad crap about how he doesn't pay the child support, but she keeps going and spending the money on stupid crap.
The question i actually have is, when does a parent have to stop paying child support? Does he have to pay till the child is 18 and legally an adult, or does he have to keep paying until the child has graduated from high school? OR, is it determined differently for each divorce?
I'm 18 and in California. If anyone knows the actual details on this, i would GREATLY appreciate it. If your info is right, i'll give 5s

How to not care about things other people say Posted Sunday January 8 2006, 2:21 pm
I find myself caring way too much about what other people say, especially when it comes to my family. Last night I cried myself to sleep because two of them had said something nasty about my boyfriend -- which I should be used to, since they've loathed my boyfriend from the day I met him four years ago and they've made no secret of it. I really can't go on like this, getting upset every time they say something nasty to me (not just about my boyfriend, anything). What are little tricks you can play with yourself so you don't care quite so much about what other people say?

parents Posted Sunday January 8 2006, 2:16 am
My parents won’t let me go out at night or with my guy friends. And this is what all my friends are doing so night after night I’m finding myself at home playing chess with my little brother. This is not how 10th grade is supposed to be. How do I get my parents to loosen up? Also they won’t let teenagers drive me places. How do I convince them that this is ok? And how do I get them to trust me with more freedom?

sister gets jealous Posted Saturday January 7 2006, 9:53 pm
I'm 15/f and my older sister is 17/f. She refuses to believe that I wear a bigger bra size than her. I don't think it's a big deal or anything becuase why would it be? Now she always talks about how I wear really padded bras. I hate padded bras and I've never owned one. I tell her that and then she goes into how I probably stuff. I don't know what her problem is. What should I do other than just ignore her? I can't ignore her because she talks about it infront of everyone!

Frustrated Posted Saturday January 7 2006, 7:13 pm
I'm 13 and my mom is getting on my case about EVERYTHING!!! Now adays...i just wish she would leave me alone. I mean she's always watching over my back when I'm on the internet, asking who I'm talking to when I'm on IM or on the Phone...and to top it off. When the guy I like comes around she just stares and I feel uncomfortable. My question is, how do I keep my mom out of MY buisness?

Sister not loving me .... Sorry ffor it being long. Posted Thursday January 5 2006, 12:00 am
I am a 14 female so I don't know if that is going to help. I have a little sister who is 8. Me and her usually get along great, we don't fight unless we mess around with each other. I love messing with her and she likes it too because that is the only time we have to be together and act stupid. I don't have much time now that school started, so we don't talk too much. I don't play with her as much. I am not allowed to get on the computer when my parents are home so I get on when they go somewhere. My sister never really minded this but lately she has been telling on me on a lot of things that I do wrong. Sometimes she even makes up lies up about what I do. My parents are really getting annoyed. They think I am changing in a bad way. I don't...

Posted Wednesday January 4 2006, 11:01 pm
Right now things have been going pretty bad. My domestic family (grandmother, grandfather, mother, brother) have just been crazy. Yelling. screaming, you name it, it's happening. Well, it was upsetting me, and so I went to my aunt. After I confided in her, things seemed ok. Then the next day all she did was critisize me, and now she doesn't seem to like me anymore. I may be being paraniod, but it's just getting me mad and I need to do something about it. I feel incredibly stupid for trusting her now, but there isn't anything I can do. Any help?

My stepdad's a cheater Posted Tuesday January 3 2006, 7:43 pm
Okay so like 2 months ago my mom got married again to this man she knew from her home town. At first I did not like him because he was not my dad but he grew on me. One day after classes i went to meet my mom at work for lunch. I went straight home afterwards.When I got home I heard something like a man moaning.

To my great surprise it was not a woman in bed but a ma...

Little brother is 12 almost13.
we fight all the time. I try so hard to be nice. and most of the time I am nice. I am always sharing, and even if I getsomething new, I always share it, and I am tollerent of our different taste in music. He likes heavy rap and metal, and those are the two I despise. Although I enjoy love songs, they are not my favorite, he despises them tho.
I want to be a good big sister. I want him to come to me when he has a girlfriend, or when he has girl trouble, or something good to tell me. I want him to be able to come to me. Now when he needs to be driven to a friends house or somewhere with a friend, he despises when I drive, ( I have my permit) but, I kno...
