Family - November 2006

I have severe depression, I have to take medication. I'm not proud of it, but I want to get well. I hate having my mind in the dark lonely clouds, uncertain of my future. My younger sister has always been a person who loves attention, what is it called, "center of attention". She does whatever she can to be praised and loved. I'm just trying to get by day by day and my sister isn't helping. She tries to make my life hard, she does. She perposely mocks my condition, claiming I only pretend to suffer from depression for attention! It really hurts when she does that. I've talked to her about my condition, I tell her it's not funny, she shouldn't use it as a way of attention, but she just laughs it off. I think she might be jealous of me, I don't know, but she gets angry whenever dad or mom have discussions with me about my depression. And then now she is cutting herself and tells mom and dad that she is sick, and she isn't! She justs wants to be better than me; but cutting herself, why?

I've already tried talking canceling and etc but he will not change he does not even spend enough quality time with the kids . If your were 25 and married with three kids would you divorce now if you were not happy?

Even though my mom and dad are divorced, we all still spend holidays togeather and it always goes great. This year my mom went to see my Aunt in Texas for thanksgiving and so my BF's parents said that my dad and I could come to thier house. My dad is retierd, but had worked at a good factory for over 30 years after he got out of Vietnam. Things where going well until i overheard something. His mom and dad went into the kitchen to get some pie. After a few min i was going into there to help them out. when i was about to open the kitchen door i heard this " Her dad is nice, but frankly i think his family is not good enough" I ran back to the table, told my dad i was not feeling so well and we left. I did not tell my dad what they said because i did not want to hurt him. However i did tell my BF and he got mad at ME for spying on his parents. I tried to explain that i simply overheard what was said. I want to talk to his parents and give them a piece of my mind. should i?

My Aunt died and she will not have that many flowers at her funeral. I feel bad because I cannot afford the $50 - 150 that flowers cost from FTD florists. I was wondering if I could carry them in a bag and place them in the office when you first walk in. That way the funeral home would place them in the room where my aunt is. I am embarassed at the thought, however I cannot afford to send flowers. Am I better off going empty handed? Also to add, My aunt lives in a very low populated area and I dont think she will have many flowers. I would love to see a few sent flowers around her, especially for my cousin's sake.

what would you like to recieve as a christmas present?
Keep in mind, I am a teenager on a very limited budget ( I want to spend about $20) but I want to get my mom something special. I get her jewelry or clothes every year so please dont suggest that. Gift cards are too impersonal and there arent any CDs or books she wants right now.

Im out of ideas so that is why I need your help! what would make you happy to get from daughter?

ps-please dont suggest "spend time with her" or "say thank you for what she does for you" because i do that already

THANKS!

what do you think and why....i think that law thing is total crap if you have to. not everyones family is the fairy tale one where its all sunshine and rainbows....thats why i reeally reeally dont want that law.some people say that if you tell your parents they can help you go through it and its easier with parents to give you support and love....a lot are abusive and will beat you just like that. a long time ago my uncle was a prinipal at a school in china where a kid got a b on an test and his parents were sooo pissed they beat him till he died..it would probably be more dangerous for the girl telling her parents than not. i think most people who say you should tell are from the families where they will sit down and talk it out instead of yell,shout and hit. because anyone from an abusive family will know that telling your parents is not an option.whats your thought??

Usually, I would've said it right away. I have this big mouth, and I can be rude to my parents if I'm annoyed with them, or they're lecturing me.

But lately, my dad seems ready to die, or just faint- he's really unhealthy, but he's controlling my life practically. He says I can't play soccer because it's not "girly" enough, he controls the websites I go to, etc.

But if I say anything, he might faint or something. But if I don't, I won't live up my life to the part I want to. I think that he thinks I'm reckless- which I can be sometimes- and that's why he can't trust me.

But I really want to go out there and do what my friends do- have fun.

Hi thanks for any help in advance.
I am 19 and my brother is 15 my parents are on holiday at the moment so I'm looking after him.

Story is on Friday afternoon I got a phone call at home from our local supermarket near his school where he goes for lunch.
I was asked to go and collect him as he had been found shoplifting. This is totally unlike him we're well brought up etc and he's never been in trouble before.
He lost half his lunch money so put a pie in his pocket that he couldn't pay for.
The school told them to phone the police, luckily they didn't because the goods weren't worth much.

My problem is now he's begging me not to tell my mum and dad about this, they can be quite rash sometimes and he will be grounded for a long long time they will probably overreact. I have already stopped him going out all this weekend.

What do you think I should do, if you were in my parents situation or in mine?

The one year anniversary since my mothers death is coming up 11/29/06. With the fact that I haven't fully dealt with that and that I can't bare to go to cemetaries ..... my brother is pissed at me because I can't go up and 'visit' her on that day. Am I wrong for not going ..... is he right for being pissed off at me? He acts like I don't care but infact with everything going on in my life I have been doing my best not to break down. I just want some objective opinions on this subject.

ok so im not a parent but I have a little sister who is 14 and still in 7th grade, she failed last year and is in danger of failing again. she just wont get up and go to school in the morning, my mom yells at her, I yell at her, I’ve even tipped her bed to get her up and nothing has worked. she wont tell us why she wont go to school. we have taken things away that she likes and we tell he that when she goes to school she will get them back but so far this hasn’t worked. now she’s on PINS (persons in need of supervision) and could be taken out of our home. we don’t know what else to do, any suggestions? PLEASE BE SERIOUS AND DON’T JUST NOPE OR I DON’T KNOW

My mother of 89 has just died and they refused to come to the funeral. His wife said she wouldn't attend any funerals or even visit ME if I was dying of cancer. I had a big row with her but he goes along with anything she says. This breaks our hearts. How can I make him see that his family love him and just want to see him.
