Family - June 2006

My mother's family is from England. Most of our extended family still lives there. Is there anyone here from England, Australia, or anywhere else that has the last name Lindridge?

I have more patience than a saint. However, my mother-in-law talks ... I mean ALL the time. She can talk for 12 hours straight without coming up for air. She talks about nothing. The color of the grass and trees, the fabric on the chair she is sitting on, what someone is eating, how it is made, ... just idle stuff to hear herself talk. It seems no matter how much time you give her... she needs to talk about something else or someone else and gossip. My husband and I (we are middle age) are up to our eye balls with this non stop chatter/noise. When he is driving she talks and points her fingers in front of his face to look at something out the window... very distracting. There is no such thing as quiet time, reading time, TV time so long as she is awake.

Also, It is clear that she suffers largely from "COTU Syndrome"
Oh... that's Center of the Universe Syndrome and always needs a lot of attention.

How can we deal with this in a kind and loving yet effective way?

My sister has major integrity issues- she continually lies to ppl, back-stab, uses, cheats & is selfish. She likes to blame everyone for her problems, including me from time to time. Nothing is ever her fault. She likes to lie to her friends about me in order to make herself look better because she feels inferior about the fact that I’ve gotten everything I have & gotten where I am w/hard work, on my own.
I thought that her lying was over, but I’ve learned that she hasn’t changed. She’s lied to everyone & most of all, has lied to me, going to great lengths to hide it.
I can’t deal w/her anymore. I want to call her out on her sh*t & confront her. It would be easier if she didn’t live 500 miles away. I want her to know that I’m not just another morons that she thinks she can see right through & convince of anything. I want her to know how wrong she is, even though it’s probably pointless.
I guess my real question is, should I confront her & how? What would you do & say?

My married 17 year old step-daughter wants me to babysit her 1 year old but ever since my 6 year old entered school I'm enjoying my free time. I work part time and in my free time I'm very involved in my church and taking care of her will be a burden. I don't want to have more children cause I enjoy my free time but this feels like having kids all over again! She doesn't have to work but is working against her husbands will, she doesn't pay her current babysitter on time and is very irresponsible with her finances, i.e. bounced checks. Why should I have to babysit when she's the one who didn't take care of herself and got pregnant? I'm only 30, I love my step-granddaughter but don't think it's fair that I have to put my life on hold to take care of her! Also, I have a feeling my husband is going to be offended that I don't take care of the baby! I asked my friend if she would take care of her and she doesn't want to either, both because she wants free time and she doesn't pay on time!

Well 1st off I'm asian and my parents are stict. I hate them. I can never do anything right. I don't compare to my sister cuz they're smart and get like 4.00s. Like I try and they all just keep hurting me. I ******* hate them! They think I'm the one with the problem. It's not me it's them. Like I kept cutting school because I hate school and I just can't care. I just want them to leave me alone and let me do whatever I want. They never listen and they don't understand. I know I sound like a typical teenager but my parents are assholes. I never get to go out. And I'll do whatever I want anyways... we already went to see a therapist. They need it more than I do. Seriously!

My niece wasn't getting very good grades last year and to make matters worse she dyed her hair green without permission.So my sister made a deal with her.If my niece got all A's or B's she could keep her hair green.To further the bet if my niece got all A's my sister agreed to shave her head and make it very shiny.My sister agreed not to wear a wig to cover her bald head.Well it worked my niece got all A's on her report card at the end of the year.My sister kept her word and had her head shaved and buffed to a bright shine.Do you think that was kind of extreme?

I realize that parents, especially fathers tend to allow their sons to do things they would never allow their daughters. However what I have noticed in my friends who male siblings is that it doesn't really matter. Teenage girls end up doing just as much reckless sh*t as their male counterparts except we're wise enough to keep our father's in the dark about it. I know one of my friends told her mom she wasn't a virgin and her mom prescribed her to the pill, but the father has no idea. I just think it's funny. According to my father, I'll be a virgin untill my wedding day... yea...

You are 16 and your sister is 14. She wants to go to shopping with her friends & your parents don't let her because they fear of safety. The mall is 1/2 hour walk from your home. Your parents & her friends parents aren't going. Your sister blames you for not trying to convince your parents to let her go. She says that "as a older sister, it's your responsibility to get the parents to give me more freedom than they do now."

I think it is unreasonable because she shouldn't blame her older sister if her parents don't let her go shopping with her friends. It is not her fault that she can't go. Her sister wasn't the one that tell her that she can't go. So she should be the one to blame.

My daughters is 4 years old and has never meet her father. He is also not on her birth certificate. In the place where the fathers name should be it says "unknown". My fiance wants to adopt her when we get married. I was wondering if we had to contact the real father to sign away his rights or can we just change her birth certificate? Please any help/suggestions would help!

my mother will visit my sister and her husband in US and we had an argument because, i think my sister, is forcing me to buy a present for her husband even though they had a much more better job than than us (my wife).the way my mother tell me about this thing is, i think, that its like that i should follow what they are saying.i gave them a negative answer about this thing,giving them two reasons. first reason; they should wait if i want to give my brother-in-law a present or not. second,i told my mother that before, my wife gave them a present (WITHOUT ASKING ANY FROM THEM AND ON HER OWN WILL), so i think they should realize that its also their time and on their own will to give also a present for my wife, but i heard nothing from them. i know that my brother-in-law is innocent on this matter and also know that he's good.i think my sister is the one whos making this issue, am i right,can anybody give me a good opinion. ty

Okay, my sister is supose to have this sweet 16 dinner and the dance is supose to be both of ours together. I asked her to please not get caught up in the moment and take over everything. At other birthday parties we have together it turns out to be about her. I just want to let her know how I feel, but she might get mad with me and hate me like she did our last birthday. Please tell me what should I do? I just don't want to be at my own birthday party with everyone hanging with her and paying her attention and not both of us.
