Problems With Mom ='(
Posted Saturday January 9 2010, 12:48 am
hii i'm 18 and a girl. okay so me and my mom dont get along. recently we got in a huge argument. it all started because she says im addicted to texting and bcuz of it im out of it. its true but i mean whats the problem? i dont go out or bring friends over or party im always home so why not text with friends. its stupid and when i ask her to give me a ride to chill with people she never is happy to do it so why does she bitch if i text with friends. so yeah she disconnected my phone and today in the morning she woke me up bitching at me and my lil sis pissed me off so i was a jerk to her then my mom came in the bathroom yelling at me and said that i could leave the house. so then i slamed the door in her face. she opened with the key and sta...

my dad and mom have been together as long as ive been alive. two years ago i caught him in chat rooms, n video sessions with other women. i had a suspicion of him cheating, and walked down on him doing a session with another women. we lost our relaitonshp. its ok now. but im finding more stuff. ive found enough stuff now to make the prediction that he is getting a hooker. like, if i had to guess, i would say 99%.

I think my dad might lose his job
Posted Friday January 8 2010, 2:59 pm
I don't know but...
My dad was accused a few weeks ago of harassing someone. He didn't, just to be clear. The woman who accused him is a lazy person who made up this rumor because she was tired of being told what to do by my dad.
My dad is her boss.
See? She's not too bright. I really hate her.
Her story is false too, and doesn't make sense because she claims that he grabbed her arm and forcibly pushed her into her office to get back to work, when what actually happened was he was nowhere near her, he said "Please leave the room, I have work to do. You get back to work." He didn't walk up to her or anything. But she wanted to lash out at him because I don't even know so she claim...

Crappy father..
Posted Thursday January 7 2010, 5:35 pm
i'm 15 years old, and my father has never really been a BIG part of my life. he actually didn't even start talking to me and my older sister until I was 12 and she was 15 she's now 18 soo, we've really only had a father figure in our lives for 3 years. well my mom and dad NEVER got along when they were together. he never talked to her, he was gone all the time, and he took no responsibility for his family. they ended up getting a divorce when I was 12, my dad started talking and hanging out with me and my sister more often so I got pretty close to him because I was excited to finally be able to hangout with my dad.
so me and my sister ended up moving in with him, long story short he met this girl, she moved in (after two weeks of kno...

Changing godparents
Posted Tuesday January 5 2010, 11:49 pm
How would my parents go about changing my godparents? The people they chose as me and my sisters godparents from the start have two bratty kids, are druggies, are divorced, are of a diffrent religion, and we have not seen them in over 4 years. The people they want as me and my sisters godparents now have three kids, the father has sadly died (we miss you!), DON'T do drugs, ARE of the same religion, we don't get together often because we live in diffrent states but my mom and the mom of that family are best friends! So is there anything legal or religious we have to do or whatever so that they are my godparents and the druggies arent?

"spooning" not appropriate?
Posted Tuesday January 5 2010, 2:15 am
15/f
hi, i was just wondering: is it weird to be still "spooning" with my 25 year old brother every once in a while?
not that it's sexual in anyway but ever since he left college when i was younger, i've tried sleeping with him and being as close as i possibly could because i missed him so much.
i'm not a little girl anymore and he's DEFINITELY not a kid either...but it's ok...right?
i'm just wondering what most peoples opinions are on this since most of my friends think it's weird. :P

My mom thinks I'm a lesbian.

Female-16
First of all, I have a pretty good relatonship with my mom. We can joke about stuff and get along well. Except when it comes to my clothing. She hates how I dress...skinny jeans, band tshirts, eyeliner, converse. It's the typical attire of a teenager today, right? She wants to dress me in leggings and dresses. I hate dresses and stuff like that. She sometimes makes me wear a dress and leggings when we go on an errand to walmart! She said to me twice already "I'm starting to question your sexuality." She obviously doesn't notice my crushes on rockstars and hockey players. I even have a boyfriend. I'm NOT gay.
What do I do/say to my mom to make her accept the way I want to dress?

Disturbed Daughter
Posted Monday December 28 2009, 12:22 am
I'm a teacher in my twenties who recently went home for the holidays to spend some quality time with my parents. Upfront, you should know that my parents are VERY strict and conservative (always have been)--which is why I was shocked beyond belief when I discovered on my parents' computer that there were recent searches for porn videos. I'm assuming it was my father, because my mother rarely uses the Internet and many of the search phrases involved "underage girls" (which is the most nauseating part). Now, everytime I look at my father or speak to him, I can't get the image of those words out of my head. My relationship with my father has never been strong, and this hasn't helped our situation at all (mainly because I feel lik...

After 3 years, dad want's back into my life?
Posted Sunday December 27 2009, 11:13 pm
Yeah, after 3 years of not seeing him, my dad got arrested and I went to see him in prison. When he saw me & my sisters, he was so suprised. He said that he wanted to get back into our lives, and i'm cool with that. But, I'm worried that he will break my sisters' hearts by leaving again. I don't want that. I guess the question is, is it a good idea to give him a second chance, after he left once?

How do I tell my sister her house is always dirty?
Posted Saturday December 26 2009, 1:09 pm
Ok, I know it sounds like a terrible thing to tell someone, but I am very concerned for her, and my neices' and nephew's health and wellbeing. My sister has never been a clean person. She keeps herself and her children clean, but actually cleaning a room or her house is impossible for her. I remember as a child she used to close her eyes and wish for the "cleaning fairy" (me) to come and clean up her room. I would do it because I thought I was surprising her and making her happy. When she was a teenager our mother would beg, plead, and punish her to clean her room, until one day she went through with huge black garbage bags and threw EVERYTHING away. She ended up with three or four of them filled with mostly garbage and items that...

I want to decorate cakes
Posted Friday December 25 2009, 7:45 pm
But my dad doesn't take me seriously at all. He wants me to go to community college and get a business associates degree so I can take over his business. I don't think he understands at all that cooking makes me so happy and it's all I would ever want to do. How can I get him to take me more seriously? How can I make him see this is something I'm willing to be serious about?

making the right decision
Posted Thursday December 24 2009, 12:53 am
(sorry so long but i do rate! :) Hello im 18/f so heres the situation im in. My mom and step-dad recently got divorced. My mom and sisters moved in with my grandparents and i decided to stay at my stepdads until my mother got her own apartment. My stepdad is really cool and he told me he loves having me around and i can stay there as long as i want. Well my mother can move into her apartment on tuesday.

But this divorce situation has sort of seperated us if you will. shes moving to the "bad side of town" and i have nothing against that. My mom had me when she was 16 and shes became more immature i've no...

Girlfriend v Sister
Posted Tuesday December 22 2009, 11:52 pm
Here's my situation:
My girlfriend wants me to give her a ride to school, because it gets cold up in our parts, and her car sits outside, so its always frosted over and unless she catches a ride with her mom, or leaves early on the bus, its impossible for her to get there. She hates the bus because the little kids on it are annoying and some mornings, her mom leaves early for work, so she can't catch a ride.
Giving her rides really isn't a problem for me, but it is for my Sister. She's 4 years younger than me, and it just seems impossible for her to get ready on time for me to pick up my girlfriend when she wants to be picked up. I tell her every night before she needs to get ready on time, and I still end up b...

this is not just your typical "my in laws drive me crazy" situation. my father-in-law (who by the way is a pastor) was always controlling in his marraige, family, then when i came around, with me. control isnt the only problem. he always said i wasnt good enough for nathan so he talked about me to everyone else and tried (actually succeeded) in making a bad name for me so i would be hated. he forced sex with his wife when she was extremely sick with cancer, abused her, cheated on her, molested his daughter,said i was a whore for wearing jeans & swimming in a 2 piece bathing suit, wouldnt allow us to go on a date to the movies together because it appears to be evil, steals from his children, and actually came out and said they ...
