My father is cheating.. I am the only one who knows Posted Monday October 20 2014, 8:05 pm
So, im 22 female. my parents have been together for 30 years. Back when i was 15, I always caught my dad on porn sites or using a webcam.. too young to realize. when i was 18, i realized how much he was always leaving the house at night (my mom works nights) and the nights my mom didnt work he would be home. He would come home those nights acting weird, i knew something was up. I found him in a chat site, and in his search history a lot of searches for escorts, prostitutes, sex sites, etc like craigslist. It bothered me, knowing he was doing something behind my moms back and I knew, and disgusted me he was spending money on it. I tried to let my mom see the evidence by calling her nights he was out late when she was at work saying why isnt ...

Parents fighting Posted Saturday October 11 2014, 1:20 pm
So I have asked this question before but I left out details so the answers I got couldn't really help me. First off my parents fight a lot. They don't love each other never did and never will. My mom helped me dad become a doctor and she got married bc she thought she was becoming old and was never going to find someone. My dad married her bc of similar reasons. Anyways, my mom always helped my dad study while she worked her ass off as a pharmacist. At this time, my brother was about 2. Sometimes my dad got violent . Then I was born and he became a doctor. My mom stopped working and stayed Home with me. A couple years later my little sister was born. My dad sometimes used to get violent with my teenage brother bc he was a trouble maker and ...

Am I selfish? Posted Thursday October 9 2014, 10:04 am
On Monday I have the only chance to be with my family and hang out with them. I had been planning this for like a month and a half now. However, my mom started talking about it with my grandmother and now she wants to come along and drag my little cousin along with her. Let me explain:
Im in college right now and have to be two hours away from home until the weekends, where I only work with my parents or study. This is the only free Monday I have and for many reasons its the perfect family day. My grandmother is not coming with us because she wants to be with me, its because my cousin (he is about 10-11 years old) loves being with us (which I also believe is because of my brother and the fact that mom buys him stuff, people ...

Hard 13 y.o life Posted Thursday October 9 2014, 2:51 am
Well I kinda hate my life right now. My step dad is much of a jerk who verbally abuses me time to time. He is a jerk and my mom doesn't know how to divorce even though he threatned to beat up my brother and choke my other. He also charged at me at this one resort and threw a coke bottle at my head and ran at me and tried to hurt me so they got separated and GOT BACK TOGETHER THE SAME DAY. also my parents don't buy me anything. It is not a financial problem I know this because they spend all this money on themselves. They buy pointless stuff for my sister and themselves.

Would You Have Your Brother Arrested? Posted Friday October 3 2014, 8:01 pm
If you knew your 27 year old brother was on cocaine and heroin and you felt that having him arrested was the only way to protect his life, would you do it?
If you, your parents, and your other siblings had tried everything, and I mean EVERYTHING short of getting him arrested and it all had failed to get him off of the drugs, what would you do? What if you had enough proof that he possesses drugs for the police to make the arrest? Would you actually call the police and have your own brother cuffed and thrown in jail?
He's already been arrested twice and sent to rehab twice and of he's arrested again he could be in big, BIG trouble. He might hate you if you do it and although your parents have talked about doing ...

I Do Not Like My Brother And His Wife Visiting!!!! Posted Thursday October 2 2014, 8:35 pm
I am seriously, seriously dreading October 15th as my older brother and his wife might be visiting. I seriously do not like this because each time they come down here, they end up using my room. I do not like this as they have a habit of going through my things and give me problems with what I own. Examples include my old action figures when I was a child which are stuffed in the closet and a Confederate Flag which I have hanging on my wall (I keep it mainly for my admiration for History). They also give me issues about something new each time they visit.
Sometimes it is something they just brought up or imagined. I say this because many years ago back when they visited in 2005, they had the nerve to accuse me of yelling at ...

My Mother Picks on Me Posted Sunday September 28 2014, 5:55 pm
Hi, I'm from Kenya and I have a painful question.
My mother and I having been having issues for months now and it's only getting worse by the day. She would look for the smallest thing I've done wrong and create a mountain out of that. She has shown me how much she prefers my sister to me and that really hurts me. Whenever she is stressed out, she will ALWAYS look for something to blame me for. She has said some very hurtful things to me, things a mother should never say to a daughter for example, calling me "cheap" infront of my friends. The worst part is no one can talk to my mother except my brother who now is not even talking to her. She scares me and I dread waking up to her everyday. If I had a choice, I would sleep and never wake up. Please help me!

Needing advice about failing Posted Thursday September 25 2014, 8:44 am
So, um, I'm not entirely sure if I'm on the right category because it's about my studies and my family, but I think I'm in the right category. Okay, so I'm supposed to graduate after this semester. But I'm failing on one subject, Internship, which means I won't be going to graduate yet even if I pass all my other subjects. Now, I don't know how or what to tell my parents about it. They'll be furious with me, of course. Especially because I had problems before. I'm actually graduating later than my batchmates, and if I fail this subject, then my graduating will be even more delayed. And that's why I think they'll be furious.
don't know, but I really can't find the motivation to do it, to start on my internship. I can't do it....

My life is a living hell always says always will be. When i was 4 or 5 my sister took me into a room and offered me candy to say that my dad had 'touched me' which he did not. Being the five year old i was i did it, and that was the start of it all. My dad went to jail and at the time i did not know what i did. The only thing i wanted was to give my daddy a hug. I waited in the same spot for a week waiting him to come back, then i realized he was not coming back.
I was about 13 when these one words triggered me 'everything that ever happened in your life was all your fault' my sister said to me. those little words made me feel terrible about myself. Because i thought it was all my fault. After that every time i would make a ...

My Biological Father Posted Thursday September 18 2014, 4:19 pm
I live with my mother and stepdad, but a few weeks ago while walking with my grandmother, I came across my biological father and we made small talk and exchanged cell phone numbers. I haven't seen him in almost a decade and I really want to get to know him again as he does me. The problem is that him and my mother did not have the best history as I was growing up and now that I'm 22 I'm nervous that she may find out that I am in touch with him. Should I tell her or shoyld I keep it a secret?

Controlling father Posted Monday September 15 2014, 4:26 am
I am 24 years old. My father has done everything he can to provide for my family and myself and he has definitely succeeded. We have not had a good relationship since I was in middle school maybe 12/13 years old. Nothing he did just never really bonded or gave him the time of day I suppose. I know this hurts him. Fast forward to present day, I have been dating a sweet boy for almost 2 years. He has tattoos and because of this my dad refused to meet him in the beginning. A few months into the relationship, he asked me if we were sleeping together and I replied honestly that we were. This pretty much ruined whatever little bit of relationship I had with my dad, he said he was ashamed and no longer had respect for me and not to mention even mo...

My self harm is upsetting my parents Posted Sunday September 14 2014, 6:22 pm
So I am 16 f and I have been self harming for about a year, yesterday my friend noticed some cuts on my arm and called my parents, they were so upset as they had no idea that it had been happening. I think that they are angry at me and at themselves and they keep asking me questions about it. the problem is that is why i didn't tell them in the first place, I didn't want to hurt them or make them disappointed in me. When they ask me things like why do you do it and are you happy I don't know what to tell them, I do feel happy and I don't know why I do it. I guess it's just hard to know what to say to them to let them know it's not their fault and that I am just weird.

It bothers me everytime my sister will visit me and ask for money because she dont have any allowances anymore. My mom never gave ...
