Mom's control issues... are out of control! How do I deal?
Posted Monday February 14 2011, 12:10 pm
20/f. With my mom, most of the time, it's either her way or the highway. She doesn't know how to compromise and when she doesn't get her way, she usually throws a tantrum. I mean, not anything serious. Just like doesn't speak to the person responsible for her not getting her way, locking herself in her room, telling people to leave her alone. I find it very difficult because I'm an adult now and I want to compromise with her like an adult. Let me give you an example. I'm in college, but I live at home. She likes to pick out clothes for me to wear to school. Not because she thinks I'm a baby but because she's really into fashion. She use to be a make-up artists and almost went to school for fashion merchandising/marketing. So, that's kind o...

My mom neVer spends time with me. What should I do?
Posted Saturday February 12 2011, 2:17 pm
My mom never wants to spend time with me. I asked her if we could go to the mall to buy me a better bra today, and she invited my 11 year old sister. I realized we've never gone to the mall, just the two of us. I'm going through a tough time ( puberty) and I can't talk to her about it. What should I do?

Posted Thursday February 10 2011, 12:15 am
Ok well i am 14 and a girl
My "father" moved in with us 3 years ago when we were living with a family member
From the 1st sec i hated him
When he got to the house he started telling us what to do and being mean
A year after that my "mom" and "dad" bought a house without telling me or my brother which we all decided they would tell us
They bought a crap house where the air conditioning was bad, a big oil pipe in the backyard, and old wooden floor. (THERE WE BETTER HOUSES BUT "HE" WANTED THE WORST ONE))

Wife wants kids. I don't, yet.
Posted Sunday February 6 2011, 10:44 pm
I really don't know how to handle my wife, how to talk to her or deal with her. We're a young married couple, I'm 26 and she's 21, been married for over a year now and been together on and off for seven.
We both want kids. She wants kids now, and I want them some day. I'm not ready to be a father, certainly not ready to be any kind of role model for anyone, and we've both got school to get through. Thing is, she'll be done with school in less than two years and I want to go to med school, which with the late start I got due to not having the money to go is going to be at least another six or seven years.
She wants to have her first kid at 25. We both know this isn't possible, but because she has the baby bug ...

Parents interrogations
Posted Sunday February 6 2011, 5:59 am
How do I stop this? I don't understand why they do it, I'm an honor roll student who has never gotten into trouble. My parents always look angry every time I come back home, asking me all sorts of questions and acting like I'm lying the entire time. They hardly let me go out as it is. What can I do to make them less protective?

Am I wrong to expect my son to respect me as his mother?
Posted Friday January 28 2011, 3:51 pm
I am the mother of 5 sons. We were always very close. Three years ago, my 2nd born was married to a girl he had been dating for several years. Both were in their mid to late twenties and already well established in their respective careers. It became evident after the engagement, that she did not care for our family very much. At the wedding reception, when the happy couple went around and visited each table after dinner, she decided that she would only visit those tables on her side and not ours. Our son did carry on and visited the rest of the tables despite her snub. After she had danced with her father, and he with her mother, my son came over and asked me to dance. It was so beautiful and I still cherish that time. He came over to his ...

Absentee Father
Posted Tuesday January 25 2011, 4:04 am
I have a father who's always mean to me. He finds reasons to yell at me -- for example, the trash isn't taken out or the dishes aren't washed. He isn't involved in my educational life at all. When my teachers request a conference with my parents, he almost never shows up. When I graduated from elementary school and middle school, he didn't come to either of the ceremonies.
I'll talk to my dad about these things sometimes, and he says he's sorry and the next day he'll buy me something to try and make it up to me. He can be really nice when he wants to be, but most of the time he's a mean person. He is always putting me down, calling me an idiot and saying I'm worthless and a good-for-nothing son. I really want to become friend...

Insensitive Gift: What do I do?
Posted Tuesday January 25 2011, 4:01 am
At a recent anniversary celebration for my parents, a well-meaning but thoughtless in-law sent them a gift from my deceased sister, with a card signed with her name. She died of cancer two years ago.
Her loss has been difficult and heartbreaking for all of us, especially my parents. I am furious at this guest for giving such a "gift." My parents were visibly shocked, but thanked the person anyway.
I knew the in-law was planning something like this, and I asked that it not be done at the party. I wish I had just said, "No! Don't do it!" I'm not sure whether I am madder at the gift giver or myself. I feel like the work we have done to recover from the loss has been set back. I could use some good advice.
