Family - October 2006

My dad has a Master's degree and is very bright. He is a devout Christian. He actually had the nerve to ask me the other day why, if I love him as much as I claim to, and have so much respect for him, why I don't want to be JUST LIKE HIM?! I told him I am not his clone and he told me not to state the obvious. I told him that I pick and choose the good parts and ignore the other parts and he seems to have a problem with that...lol! I am my own person and have no desire to be just like him. He has many faults in my personal opinion. (He tells people they're going to Hell for example and that they're not really Christians for another example, he fought for and got custody of my nephew in a nasty custody dispute and I don't think he fought fair for another example) My point is I think he is being unreasonable and arrogant to think I should want to be JUST LIKE HIM if I claim to love and respect him so much.

Its not like im innocen but im kinda worried cause i lied to the cops about a close friend who left and stole everything in the house. He had a reason i wouldv left to. his dad is a total control freak and one of those strict cathliocs if you know were im going with this. someone who preaches about the good in life and the kid with the bad reputation shouldnt be living together. it doesnt mix. im unlucky enough to know were he is and if the cops find out that i covered for him i might get in trouble. i worked alot to get were i am now and im not up to risking it. some of my friends say that i should turn him in and let his dad do whatever he wants but maybe he deserves it because he's not a boyscout ethier. i got a lot of suggestions. i no i owe him cause hes covered for me before but i no i sure as hell would not want to live with that guy hes a party killer anyway what am i spose to do now am i going to get completely screwed over?!?!

I am a 14 year-old boy. I am what some would call a "Goth" but I really do not think of myself as that. I dress in all black with band t-shirts, black nail polish, and sometimes eyeliner. I love the way I dress cause it sorta fits in with the rave/industrial/techno/metal/punk/emo music I listen to. Anyways to get to the point. Everyone sorta likes me just I really have nothing to say. I never can think of anything to talk about with anybody except about 2 people. And when I do talk it is never anything funny or interesting. I guess I am sorta posting this because I realized today I really only have 2 close friends and one I only get to talk to every 2 weeks and I have only seen her once in the year I've known her. All my other friends have seemed to abandoned me after I went to the hospital (because of my big depression). I just want to be able to think of more interesting things to say. Can anybody help me? I really would appriciate it!

I'm not talking about things they want to do (like with boys and stuff) but children today, especially girls, seem to have such a serious demeanor, and they speak a lot more articulately than I remember. When I was a child (let's say 8-years-old), my peers were running around screaming and cracking bathroom jokes. They all watched nothing but cartoons, and were...well...childish. Like they should be. But now, I'm seeing young children answering questions seriously and articulately and opting to watch non-cartoon shows. They don't care for "gross humor" anymore. How come children seem to be more intelligent and growing up faster (mentally) these days?

I live with my mother, and we watch my nephew 3 days a week. What's a good way to make it easier on both him and my brother when he leaves. My mom is all about spoiling him, or sending him home with a toy, but my brother and I agree that's not the best approach. He's almost three years old, and has about a 15-20 minute ride home that he usually cries all the way.

I'm not saying this because I'm planning to have kids anytime soon, I'm just thinking about it. I mean there are so many things about being a parent that scare me so much. I like teen depression/pregnancy, self mutilation, rebellion, them catching AIDs, being a bad parent and the list goes on an on...Were you scared when you first came a parent, are you still scared?

I always thought something like having cancer can never happen to me. I was told they caught it early, so I'm lucky. My dad who is a surgeon and my mom who is a nurse said they will do everything they can through their connections in the medical field to find me the best doctor to treat me. Yesterday, I couldnt stop crying, I felt like i got hit by a truck. I have been sick but I just ignored it and never thought it would be this serious. My dad called my advisor and told her the details of what is happening. However, I was supposed to tell my friends today but i didnt have the courage to...I dont know how to even start to tell my friends....please help!!!

Last night I went to my sister's house and smelt marjauana and saw a bong sitting in the living room. She has lied to our family repeatadly about not doing drugs and not allowing drugs in her home. She is twenty one years old is living with her boyfriend who is also the father of her seven month old. What I saw was him, his brother, another guy I didn't know and their son (was sitting on her boyfriends lap) in the living room and when his brother opened to door he shut it again (not all the way) when he realized it was me and they moved the paraphnalia so that I couldn't see it, but I still smelt it. I didn't say anything and didn't let on that I saw anything, but after I left I filed a report. My sister is very angry with me, they searched her home and may be taking away her child. I thought that I was doing the right thing but now I feel tarrible and she and her boyfriend are saying that they no longer want anything to do with our family (especially me) but also our mom.

Now I am Very Angry with this situation, i live in a 3 bedroom house with my granny and 9 of my other relatives and we all were getting along perfectly until one of my relaitives decided they wanted to preach and get their life right so they have been holding up ruckus with everyone else in the house. They have called me all types of names like "satans child, eve's sister, and many more" but today topped it off when they got into a conflict with another house memebre and i was caught in the middle due to where i was standing when it began, and when i tried to calm the other house member down they spit in my face, and it really ticked me off. I am always trying to move out but when i do they come up with every excuse as to why i shouldnt move out, but i need to get away some one please help tell me what you think i should do. Now Keep in mind i am grown, a college student, and i work 32 hours a week.

My MIL is nuts ...

She is 100% Italian and wants to try to tell me how to do everything. Correction -- she DOES tell me how to do everything.

She wants to buy my daugther her "first" everything and wants to be there for every "first" moment, and when she isn't? She goes nuts.

I have tried telling my Husband that his Mom already had her shot at doing the whole "first" thing with her 2 kids. I have tried to explain that it is my turn and that these are some of the things that I have looked forward to as a Mother and that I feel as though I deserve them.

My Husband tells me that he can see where I am coming from but that he has never told his Mother "NO" and that he doesn't know where to begin.

I have been told that my MIL acts this way because HER MIL acted this way to her.

Is that my problem to deal with? I had nothing to do with that but for some reason, I am being expected to deal with those repercussions. Sometimes I want to tell her to butt the hell out. Help!
