should I call the cops on my dad?????
Posted Saturday May 3 2014, 6:34 pm
I've done some research on “verbal abuse" and I think me and my brother sister and mother might be suffering from it… you see, my dad calls us names like bitch, asshole, gerk, brat, and my mother hoe, hoar, and other names offensive to a woman, and he threatened all three of my siblings: threatened to “smash" me and my sister (and once lifted a knife and said to me,“it's time" it was supposed to be a joke, but still), and also did the same to my brother. A signifigant thing he did was he threatened to break my sister's leg or arm or some bone. I learned that this threatening is punished, but I'm not sure if I should call the cops, and even if I do I can't get any proof, so what should I do?

Are my parents overprotective?
Posted Saturday April 26 2014, 4:49 pm
So, I'm a 14 year old girl and I honestly can't cope with the way my parents tell me to live, I feel like I am trapped in my home and I can't do anything!
They have these rules that I cannot go on my iPad/phone until 8pm every night, even at weekends I'm not aloud to use them. They say I'm to antisocial and I need to get out more, I go almost everywhere with them! I do go to town with friends aswell. They won't let me out of my town, I live in Barnstaple, devon and I'm not even aloud to Exeter or Bristol to go on a shopping trip with friends which is only about 2 hours away. Also I'm not aloud to be friends with a few people I know, one of them because there is a rumour going around that her mum is a prostitute and the other one who ...

How do I talk to my mother?
Posted Wednesday April 23 2014, 10:54 pm
Well, you see, my mom is mad at me for having low grades. She blames me for being too lazy. She keeps telling me stories that their mom and dad teached them to do their homework and din't have to help, so why should she. They keep saying my brother and I are a failure in school. But when I ask them if they think were a failure she denies it she keeps explaining that it's not what she means. But I'll get to the point here, my mom taught me idek but about just 48% in life. And she expects me to be perfect? What the fck? Sorry for the words but yeah.
How do I talk to her about this cause she's been in a really bad mood lately. And I have been cutting myself because my mom thinks I'm not good enough. I mean she can't expect me to act lik...

mean dad
Posted Wednesday April 23 2014, 5:09 pm
He always yells at me and bosses me,and any time I get upset he mocks me, and some things he calls me like a gerk or bitch or asshole really hurts my feelings. But he doesn't care, he yells at me so loudly, and charges at me, and sometimes he slaps me, then claims he just taps me, but just now he made my thumb sting numbly, it's hard to explain. But a few times he left red marks. I kind of got used to it, and it's not just me, he screams at the top of his lungs at my 3 year old autistic brother, wich is harsh, don't you think? I've also heard him call my mom a hoar and a hoe and a stupid bitch, and other horrible names, and I'm not even going to share what he does to my sister. Once he took one of our cars (we've got 2) and didn't come back...

Wedding Party
Posted Monday April 21 2014, 2:07 pm
I am getting married next year. I have a big family and all my cousins are like siblings to me. Two of my cousins are bridesmaids and I have three younger cousins who I have asked to be my junior bridesmaids. My fiance has a smaller family and some of his family is not close with him. There are 6 nieces on his side that I have chosen to not be in the wedding. They are all girls and I am not close to them whatsoever. Although I feel bad..I feel like this is my day and I should choose what I want. My fiance understood but is still a little unsure of how this might play out. I am worried about how his family may react. We have already had some drama come from his side because of an engagement party and they have yet to apologize which i...

Twin Brother R.I.P
Posted Sunday April 20 2014, 12:53 am
I'm from Berlin, Germany. I can read and write English almost as well as anyone else. Recently I have lost my dear identical twin brother, tragically. My father doesn't seem to care much, he didn't even blink when he died but I can't stop feeling this hole. I feel lost now, and confused. I can't cry for some reason. I'm depressed and alone. My mother is with my brother and my father is always at the bar. So what can I do to ease this pain inside of me?

I think I'm pregnant
Posted Monday April 14 2014, 9:10 pm
I have been talking to a friend of my brothers for a few months now. We have been hanging out for the past couple weeks. The first time we had sex was almost four weeks ago. I haven't gotten my period since, and I have been feeling a little nauseous. I told him over the weekend that I might be pregnant and he told me he's not ready for a baby and it's bad timing because we are not really dating, but he would be there for me if it's definitely his kid. My brother found out about us hanging out and he told me to be careful because he said he's really shady and he doesn't want him to hurt me. I don't know whether to believe my brother or not because he really seems like a great guy. I don't know what to do. If I am pregnant, I'm horrified that...

I feel God Hates me

*I apologize in advance for the long explanation and thank you for reading it.* Of course I'm a born again Christian, but I feel Like God hates me. Anybody may ask.
I was born into a loving family which only lasted for two years. It quickly turned into a disaster where one parent (a) abused the other (b). B refused to beat a. I always had to take my brother and hide.
At nine my grandparent died and the day before Christmas my uncle died. At ten my parents got a divorce and my sibling (c) went crazy, but I'd learned at this age to keep my feelings bottled in. At twelve, c got taken away and do I got another one (d) at thirteen.
I turned to friends online at fourteen but parent b didn't like it. ...

My ex and Is families dont like us and we have a baby on the way
Posted Tuesday April 8 2014, 3:41 pm
I met my boyfriend in June of last year. We were together 6 months before we found out Im pregnant. Anyway, to make a long story short, my ex had a drinking and pill problem. He was prescribed to klonipins and pain killers but quit the pain killers. He is on klonipins for his PTSD due to his 2 deployments. Hes a veteran and I guess the miliitary thought hed lost his mind so they kicked him out sevral years ago. He seemed normal to me and looked happy so I wasnt going to judge him by his past. I gave him benefit of the doubt. Anyway, he moved in with me and my parents cause it was easier for us to spend time together. After breaking the rule of "no drinking in the house" and getting pulled over due to his wreckless driving cause of...

I'm Done With My Dad's Family
Posted Thursday April 3 2014, 6:48 pm
My grandmother has four grandchildren and seven great grandchildren and has a list of her favorites to least favorites. I'm at the bottom of the list, behind the great grandchildren and everyone. I don't know what's more irritating, the way she treats me or the reason why she treats me that way.
I am the second born and second girl in my family. My dad was the first of her children to have more than one child himself. Up until I was born, my grandmother could have special one on one time with each of her grandkids when she went to visit one of them. I ruined that when I was born and I think it got under her skin.
Also, I think she'd have rather me been a boy. There's only one boy in the family, my cousin, Wesl...

My Dad is a Terrible Driver
Posted Saturday March 29 2014, 7:27 pm
My dad sucks at driving, but you can't tell him that because he'll argue that he's the greatest driver you'll ever meet. To him, a good driver is someone who can maneuver the car well an do cool tricks. To me, and I hope to anyone else, a good driver is someone who is careful, follows the rules of the road, and cares more about safety than being cool.
My dad speeds, takes annoyingly hard turns, slams on the gas and on the brakes, has bad road rage, and texts while driving. He'll also take his eyes off the road to look at the passengers in the car while he talks to them. Once, he fell asleep while driving and when my sister woke him up, he yelled at her, "What? I was sleeping!"
He says that the only...

spring hairdo
Posted Thursday March 27 2014, 10:24 am
I just hate wearing the seatbelt in the car. It wrinkles my clothes and is uncomfortable. I have recieved 3 traffic tickets over the last few years for not wearing it. The last one was a couple months ago and the fine was $114. My husband is not happy. Well I had to use my hair salon money to pay the fine.So my 17 year old grandaughter told hubby that she could cut my hair for me.She thinks that a short "home" haircut would be a good reminder for me to wear the seatbelt and also a good consequence for me.My husband agrees with her and wants me to let her cut my hair short. Are they being fair about this? Sue J.

Frustrated with Dad

Okay so bare with me. And pardon my language too. But anyway, my dad and I have always been good friends, but recently my parents got divorced and my dads been kind of a jerk lately. I am a gamer, and I always have been. A few years ago, i bought myself and xbox 360 (with my own money) and I play it a lot. My parents somehow got the bright idea that they could take it away even though i bought it with my own money, i buy my own games, pay for my own live etc. But they take it away because i get bad grades and all, and i can kind of see why..? But I dont think its right. But my dad (ever since the divorce) has been a real jerk about the xbox, and he complains i spend too much time on it, and that i dont focus enough on school. He blames the ...

Abusive environment
Posted Saturday March 22 2014, 10:48 pm
My mother's last boyfriend was a bit unstable. He drank excessively, smoked marijuana, and couldn't manage his money, instead spending it on everything and anything. He recently lost his job, and out of pity my mother let him move back in with us. It's all ready been 4 months and though he's found a job he isn't leaving. He makes everyone uncomfortable. He plays really loud music so that the neighbours complain and drinks and smokes in the house. He hit my brother when he told him to stop. My mother's tried confronting him but he just twists her words around and says 'are you going to throw me on the streets?' and yesterday, I was alone in the house with him, and he was worse than usual and started screaming at me to undress because im suc...
