breaking us apart
Ever since my grandpa died, my family started spliting apart. It's full of hate. One of my uncles is very mean and grumpy towards everyone else now because of his job. He especially takes it out on me. When he critisizes me, I have to keep quiet and agree because if I don't he will yell louder and call me disrespectful. I really do not like him telling me how to live my life and yelling at me for the littlest reasons. I can't talk to him because he is very stubborn. I can't avoid him because he lives next door to me. Someone please help..he's making me feel bad and breaking our whole family apart because of his opinions.

That's a tough situation to be in. If you talk to back to him then it is disrespectful even if he is completely wrong just for the simple fact that he's older than you. I'm sorry to say that you really can't do anything in this situation but try to ignore him. I know that sucks but I don't see any other way to deal with this. Avoid him as much as possible. You said that you really can't avoid him so that will be hard but maybe you could try to be out with your friends more or just out of the house. Even if you do that you will still probably have confrontations wih him and you really have no choice but to just take it. Depending on how old you are you will probably be able to get away from him in a few years. Until then just avoid him as much as humanly possible and try to ignore him when he critizes you. I'm sorry that I can't be much help but you are in a touch situation.
Good luck and I hope that things get better for you

tell your family that it makes you uncomfortable when he does that, they'll straighten him out if they're not insane.

It depends if you are already at a right age. If you're 16 and above, you might help in talking to him just in little ways like why are you always angry? or if he's really wrong in things he's telling you then tell it to him. It helps to let your emotions out. But if you're still like 13 or 14. Just try to avoid him by going inside you room or go out to the mall and other places. Ignore his criticism and find ways to live your life happily.

First of all- don't feel bad by what your uncle says about you. Just brush it off, roll your eyes in your head. No one likes to be told how to live their lives, expecially by someone in really has no right to. Just tell yourself that his opinion dosn't matter- because honestly, it dosn't.
As for him always coming over and tearing apart your family, do you have a secure relationship with your parent(s) where you can discuss this with one of them? Or any member of your family who might be able to help. I'm sorry I can't help you more than that, but as he's quite irrational by the sound of it- just try to stay away as much as possible, and not let what he says affect you- maybe the rest of the family will catch on.
