First, my father is an ahcoholic. Tonight, my 8 year old son had his end of the year program at school. My mother and father came together. I sat next to me father and he reeked of alcohol. I was upset with him and somewhat embarrassed. I am on PTO, a classroom volunteer and am respected at the school. I feel like he should not have come like that. I knew I could not say anything to him because I have learned you cannot reason with an intoxicated person. I should point out that he did not "act" drunk. I knew he was beacuse I know him...he just smelled awful. Anyway, as we were leaving I said to me mom "why did you let him come in that condition?" She said " I did'nt LET him...talk to him." She called me 2 hours later crying and asked me if I knew what it was like to live with an alcoholic and was upset that I "crawled all over her" for asking why she did not say something to him. She hung up on me. I dont understand what I did wrong. Help.

I would like to know how to get rid of my car which is worth 17,000. I paid off 4,000 already and have 13,000 more to go. I am looking to get a cheaper car but the dealerships are saying that I need to put a 5,000 down since my car isn't worth 17,000 anymore in order to get the car I want, no matter what the price of it is. I would like to know if there is a way I can privately sell my car in order to pay it off and get the cheaper car instead. Thank for anyone who advises.

do you think our overseas filipino workers are our modern day heroes? yes, they got the dollars but they dont serve their Countrymen... some of the fresh grads already applied for a visa to work abroad...do you think they really love our country because they sacrifice a lot to go abroad and work there or they just do it for their families?

So, this is a little random, but I'm looking for fiction targeted for teenagers ("young adult") with characters that are described as atheists (don't believe in God) or even agnostist (won't say yes or no in relation towards religion). I suppose any sugesstions are helpful, as long as they are inthe fiction category. Thanks so much!

the city lights try to reassure us, tomorrow

the sun will be back... the streets show no

remorse for the lives that they swallow

everyday.
sitting next to him in his car, tears falling

from those dark eyes full of mascara and

liner, streaking her face with pain bleeding

midnights screams. the broken life of a

tattered soul, who at some point forgot what

she was supposed to be when she grew up...now

frozen waters harbor her heart, one wrong move

it could be shattered and her life would be

over.

She clutches her purse as if it is a lifeline,

as if it is her breath, her addiction, and

also her worst fear... inside a hidden pocket

is a razorblade, inside another, scizzors

bandages... She has only tried burning once or

twice, drugs... more than that, and there is

such a rush when she knows that she can save

herself heartache with blood.

Isnt it so insane to actually be able to carve

into your skin and not feel anything,

perfection could never be attained and so by

making imperfections at least you arent on the

fence between worlds of perfect and imperfect,

now you are truly a flaw, an imperfection, a

word written in the wrong place, completely

incomplete of what they all expected of you.

I am in a room, Walking back and forth, the

lullaby of an empty echoe, the sound of my

shoes creating a sincere silence, a broken

smile, tears...Nothing, I cant even cry

because I have forgotten how to produce

emotion.

In the essence of our past, I could almost

bring myself to a place of substance, where I

used to know how to laugh, or be who I truly

am, but Close isnt close enough.
We were once eachothers air, lifeline, we were

what kept the other one inside and alive in

this life of "half empty-ness"

The city lights cant reassure that I will see

the sun tomorrow, the black streets will

swallow every ounce of anything I had believed

in,
because I know that when I step out of this

car, it will be the end of everything we lived

for, for so long, our entire selves,
The Fragranced air has now turned stale and I

know that It is time to walk away...

I clutch my purse with every bit of strength I

have left, knowing that I can let you go when

I get upstairs to my apartment...in an

enclosed room, alone.

I can carve you out of my soul and my life,

and I can walk away, completely dissatisfied

with myself, and broken because of you.
We must have written this break up a thousand

times in a play, I have seen it in my mind so

many times, and yet, im almost not here, not

aware that it is over.

How bittersweet and tragic that We had to end

on a stage in front of thousands of people

reading our life story in the whisper of a

crowd. How ridiculous and predictable that I

could paint you and everyone else would know

what I couldnt seem to see, I am the artist,

you were the muse, I was the writer, you were

the blues, the colors of emptiness painted

your face, and I was to blind to see that all

this time, I walked in an empty apartment, to

the silenced lullabies of sadness, You made me

the ghost of myself...

The end to every story, the memory that haunts

you, the conclusion to a long year of

emptiness, and hurt, the remnant of whatever I

had left, The empty echoe of footsteps where

there were none, Take your bow, I have written

you like we never existed...

My brother has a bad stuttering problem, has ever since he began to talk and know hes 20. My friends mom found about this thing called the fluency master and was planning on buying it for him.

But I have a few questions a red flags.

#1 They want my mom to pay 3900 through Paypal, which is a ***** about fraudulent charges, and only covers up to 2000 if you do get scammed, and if you pay and the seller empties their bank account, well you're screwed.

#2 You're supposed to go to a specch patheologists to try it out, but they requested CASH ONLY, which leaves no paper trail whatsoever.

# 3 I googled the Doctors name and nothing came up on him.

# 4 The 2 doctors that my mom got a recommendation from and the audiologists who did the ear mold have never heard of the fluency master. We saw a video on VHS that was made in the 1980's and their website looks like it was made in the 1980's, yet 2 docters and an audiologists have never heard of it?

So, I mean, I would for my brother to have this, it would really improve his life, but I dont want my mom to get scammed for $4500.

So whats your opinion?
