My Dad Is Getting Hard To Be Around. What Should I Do?
Posted Wednesday November 28 2012, 10:55 am
My mom and I have a great relationship. We go to lunch, movies, and other fun things together all the time. My dad and I used to be close and occasionally, we still do fun stuff together, but he gripes a lot and sometimes, he can take the fun out of stuff because he gripes all through it. In the past, I spent all of the time I was home in my room and my dad and I don't even have dinner together anymore because he has to eat way early. On Halloween, I had a bad health scare and that night and November 1st, I spent time in the living room watching tv with my parents (I don't like to be in my room alone when I'm scared about something). My dad said he really liked me spending that time with him, so I've kept it up since then and it's been nice...

I'm really shy around my boyfriend and I want to impress his family
Posted Tuesday November 20 2012, 12:01 am
I'm 13 and my boyfriend is 14. We have been dating for 8 months and I really like him(obviously). When I'm with him I forget what to say and he gets mad at for not talking to him. So how could I fix that? I have another question, my boyfriend invited me to him and his family thanksgiving dinner. How can I get his family to like me?

Is it okay for my dad to make me kiss his lips (13yr old female)
Posted Monday November 19 2012, 7:45 pm
I am a 13yr old female and never liked to kiss my dads lips. It's isn't a full out make out session but just a really long pucker up and get your face smushed thing. I turn my head so he gets the memo to kiss my check but then he gets really mad at me. I turn to leave and I'm yelled at until I come back. He then says "what the hell is wrong with you?!?" And is ticked off for the rest of the day. My mom and sister are then mad at me too because I can't suck it up. My dad doesn't kiss my sister on the mouth though! He will grab me by my arms and kiss me really hard and won't let me leave! Then sometimes he will kiss my neck and my shoulder and collarbone which makes me really uncomfy. Is this ok?

Concert Tickets: I had my friends buy them for me already (mom doesn't know) but my mom won't let me go!
Posted Monday November 19 2012, 4:16 am
Well, I already have tickets to a concert this week with my friends back in October, and I really want to go. However, when I proposed this to my mom in November, she said NO after I told her that it cost $218. I, however, did not tell her that my friends had already bought the tickets for me in advance, fearing she would just be disappointed and "hurt" cuz i didn't ask her in advance. The day is drawing nearer and I have yet to persuade my mom to let me go to the concert. I've tried pleading her, but she just got mad and said "your studies aren't great, why should I let you go? All you ever know is just to spend and spend and spend money." She also said that she wanted to talk to my friends and tell them not to hang ar...

Had a child with a woman I barely know..
Posted Sunday November 18 2012, 10:11 pm
I just got out of a serious breakup with a woman I was engaged too...
Afterwards being heartbroken and having a knack for picking up women, I had many sexual partners during the course of a year.
Only to find out, while I am finishing a very intense Masters program, that 1 of the bar hook ups whom I barely know, just gave birth to my child. She wants me around, but I am not sure if the kid would benefit to see dysfunctional parents that have only had a sexual relationship.
I told my parents, my Dad said, "Don't even answer her calls," my Mom said, "I am excited to be a grandma, but are you gonna be around??," I just don't know whats best for us all here.. The Mom already as...

I need to know whether my attitude is correct re my mother in a nursing hom
Posted Thursday November 15 2012, 1:28 pm
My mother has had strokes and is in skilled nursing. She has early dementia and has very little memory left. Most times, she doesn't know where she's at or who you are. I haven't been to visit her lately and really don't want to because she doesn't know who I am, doesn't carry on any kind of intelligible conversation and ends up agitated and I am agitated in the process. I have deep seated resentments towards her from some childhood abuse she allowed to happen by my adopted father and further from the way she has favored one of my other brothers all his life, pandering and catering to himm, supporting his alcoholism and lazy work habits and lying for him to keep him out of trouble. He is a loser and she enabled him to destroy everythin...

Help: How do I get my mom to trust me alone with my boyfriend?
Posted Monday November 12 2012, 2:03 pm
13/f
Okaay, so me(13/f) and my boyfriend(13/m) had plans to go downtown today. my mom was on board with it yesterday. And today when i went to ask her she said no. she says its because she doesnt know my boyfriend...but i think its because she doesnt trust me. i've been downtown with friends before. and i want her to be able to trust me. I've never done anything for her not to trust me. so why now? its not because she doesnt know my boyfriend because she could just meet him, when she dropped me off. this is ridiculous. she's never going to learn to trust me if she doesnt let me try something new. how do i get her to trust me and do more with my boyfriend?

I want to hit my mother so bad.....
Posted Sunday November 11 2012, 7:05 pm
My mom creates arguments and fights about EVERYTHING. Ever since she got a new promotion its only gotten worse during the week. When my oldest sister "K" was 15, she went through a stage where she was the worst teen ever, fights, mental stuff,probation etc etc etc. They always verbally and physically fought. Well now she is 20 and doing great with her life. She's in the military, she's got her life together and that's great. But, that left an effect on my mother, she treats me and my other big sister like crap. She cusses us out, gets mad over the house not being clean, says we disrespect her and we don't. She's been through a lot in her life and has kept it together but she makes us antisocial and she acts as if we really are ba...

If my boyfriend's father continues to live with us, I am packing and leaving with the baby. What do I do?
Posted Saturday November 10 2012, 4:47 am
My boyfriends father just got out of jail 5 months ago he had been in there for 4 years and this was my first time meeting him. He seemed generaly nice and when he asked if he could stay with us I told him I had to think about it. A day later he said he would pay rent and help with food if he could stay because he got Assistance. Having a new born I decided we needed all the help we could get. Well he didn't help with rent or food at first but he did a car payment for us so I let him stay. Every month he said he did a payment but still didn't help with rent. I got real frustrated when our lease was up and we had to move and he said he would pay half and turned up not paying a dime. I eneded up getting money off my parents to pay for a new p...

I am one heck of a bad teenager
Posted Saturday November 10 2012, 3:36 am
Hi. So I'm 13 and I'm a normal girl from Singapore. I have no idea how I'm going to go about expressing my problem, but here it is: I have tutoring classes in the weekends that I have been skipping for three weeks, without my mum's knowledge. Moreover, I have tickets to a concert I'm going to with my friends. It costs $218 and I don't have enough money to pay for it. I have told my mom about this before and she flared up and said that I cannot go for the concert. Thus, now, I'm not going for the concert, and I haven't told my friends yet. Does anyone have advice on this matter? My mom found out yesterday that I have been skipping classes and she's obviously angry, saying that (and I quote) "Four lessons can pay for your tickets to the ...

Are Babies Worth Having?
Posted Thursday November 8 2012, 3:27 pm
So, I have been with my boyfriend for a while now. I'm not planning on having a family anytime soon, since I decided 24+ would be the best time (done with my degree's and such). But my problem is I have 2 minds about it
on one hand I do want a family with him, I always get told I'd make a good mother and I don't doubt that I would be one (with enough reading and knowledge, etc.) but then I think of all the nasty parts! the labour is one thing, but then there's years of dirty diapers, sleepless nights, etc. etc.
I suppose I just want to know (from parents, women preferably) if it's worth it? Is it really as painful as it looks??(that seems like a dumb question haha)
and also, on a slightly more ...

Can my sister go to jail for this?
Posted Thursday November 1 2012, 11:57 pm
my sister has been charged with hit and run, she injured two people but they weren't killed. Will she go to jail for this or will it just be fines/probation? This is the first time she ever did something like this, she has no record at all.
if she does go to jail any idea how long it will be? Will it be more than a year?
If she pleads guilty will it be a lesser punishment?

Talking to My Family About Our Christmas Plans (Please Read)
Posted Sunday October 21 2012, 11:54 pm
Sorry this is long. I used to have the most awesome Christmases at home with my parents, sister, and grandparents. We had all kinds of traditions that really were a lot of fun and Christmas eve and day were always very relaxed. From 2005 to 2007, I had an aunt, uncle, and cousins come too, but ever since 2008, they've been asking us to come to their house. We have every year since they started asking, but it's been a lot of trouble. There are more of us than there are of them, so it's more expensive, our first flight is always late and makes us miss our layover, we've spent Christmas night in hotel rooms because of trouble getting there, and my uncle always wants us to stay for longer than is convenient. The biggest reason I don't like it i...
