Family - December 2006

I am a singe parent I am trying to purchase a home but I am also a victim of identity fraud. Is there any programs or charties out there that can help me or donate me a home? When I apply they tell me that if I was getting child support I would be able to afford a home but I don't. Here in Louisiana they aren't very strict on dead beat dads. When I find a home for $65,000 that is nice I alway miss out because I can't get preapproval.I've tried everything from disputing items on my credt to applying for sweepstakes to win a home. I haven't loss hope. My goal was to put my kids (2&5) in there own home with the big back yard before Christmas. My 5 year old told her teacher "that we are moving out the projects once my mother finds a house we can afford". That touched me because I thought I was shielding her from our situation. I've pushed the date back again. It's the only thing on my list to Santa. If anyone out there can help me please do!

Thank You
Merry Christmas

I am nearly 25 years old and my mother and I have been very close since I got into my 20s. We use to talk on the phone every day but now that I am engaged and busy with life in general I don't always have time to talk to her as much now. She always writes to me and asks if I am okay saying I was quite at dinner or something. How do I tell her everything is fine? And why is she thinking I am not okay when I am the best I have ever been.

My mom has cancer and needs people to help her do routine things. She does not need a nurse as of yet. She just needs for people to help her out around the clock. We have many people helping but it is just not enough. I am finding it hard to work and take care of her at the same time. Not to mention I have a 2 year old as well. I need to know if there is a way that I can stay home and take care of her and receive some sort of benefit. Thank you

I knew he was sick but they said he had a year to live. My sister was suposed to take me to see him but she decided to go tanning instead. All of sudden things started going down hill and he died a couple of days later. I never got to see him again or even say good bye. The last time I saw him was on Father's day and when he left he said: "I'll see you later sweetie." But I'll never see him again and it hurts so much. There was no funeral or anything so he was put to ashes and sent up to his cabin. I hate my sister for doing something useless instead of taking me. I don't want to ever forgive her but I act like nothing happened. If I confront her she will make up excuses and I wont be able to handle it. What should I do?? I also try to talk to my dad about how I feel but I get scared everytime I try also. Any advice on that too?
Please help!!

Disfunctional doesn't come close to describing my family. I'm getting married in a month and would like any advice on how to deal with my family's disfunctional behavior. There's no telling what kinda of drama they are going to create on that day and I'm already so stressed out about it I'm not talking to most of them. Help, I just want to have an average wedding day and avoid any embarassment from my side of the family.

My life is being twisted in so many directions I have no clue what to do anymore...my parents have pressured me into living at home so they will pay for my college and everything else. I have always wanted to go away and what I want to major in isnt available where I live. My parents are truly insufferable and drive me insane, especially my father who yells at me all the time for no reason. I have a wonderful boyfriend who happens to be away at college, the only reason he chose it was because I was supposed to go there as well. My family loves him and hopes we get married some day since our families are friends. But because of the distance I dont know if I can keep our relationship alive for four more years. Is it wrong for me to want to go away when my parents knew I had planned on leaving all along?

I was thinking rather than having a baby and risking messing up my figure and also dealing with dipers and stuff, I can adopt a kid who is past that age. A little girl and then we can have fun playing dress up and teaching her how to be pretty and be a lady.

I was just wondering. I saw my ex, it has been over 2 years since she dumped me. We just randomly bumped into each other at the gas station, I really didn't say much to her. It really hurt to see her after all this time. I have moved on and have a great woman in my life (we are getting married next year). However when I saw this ex, I just remembered all the pain she put me through. (She cheated on me and dumped me. I found out she cheated on me after, she is now married to him). It made me sad. I just want to know if this is natural. I have no desire to reconncect with this ex, and I love my fiance. Is it okay to feel the pain and remember when I crossed her path.

Would you take a chance and talk to one of your brothers if you want some guy advice on what this other guy's actions mean? even if you were wondering why a guy would stare at your chest and ogle you suggestively or not? We're not that close but one of them was the first one I went to after I was uh sexually assaulted(don't worry it was a long time ago and justice was served and I got counseling).

I'd want to tell my mom what this one guy is doing and how I'm feeling but I don't want to freak out.

So don't tell my brothers or what? I'm not sure if any one of them would tell our mom if I told them. they're 25 and 29 and I'm 22.

What'd you suggest?

My whole life just falls apart 2 or 3 days before I start my period. I crave sugar and can't control my intake. I feel terrible. I cry at the drop of a hat. Today, was my 6 year old's day to bring snacks to school. Well, I forgot. Now, I'm crying uncontrollably. I have eaten like 5 peanut butter balls. I am miserable, grumpy. Am I a terrible mother for forgetting the snacks? Is there any treatment out there, except for antidepressants(I'm a nurse, I know all about those. I don't want to have anything to do with them) I'm feeling sorry for myself, I know, but I don't want to face my daughter after school when she tells me that I forgot to send the snacks with her. I realize more horrible things can happen, but it seems like every month, I do more and more things to disappoint people during those 2 or 3 days.

I have a friend who is the oldest in a family of 11 children. Although she is grown now with a family of her own, she often laments that her childhood was lost because she always had to raise her younger siblings. I grew up with only an older brother, so I really don't know what having such a large family is like. This is why I'm asking.

This is a complicated story, so I will try my best in my limited characters. My Uncle and his wife raised his wife's little sister because their mother died. Growing up, this girl was always called my cousin. She was never told who her father was, because they said b/c her mother died without telling anyone. Well, she did tell someone, my mother. This girl's father is actually my father's father... so in essence, she's my aunt, not my cousin. My mom won't tell her b/c she was sworn to secrecy by my aunt/cousin's mother before she died. Why my mother trusted me with this secret is beyond me but I'm always telling her she's got to tell my aunt/cousin!!! I think it's wrong, but I know if I were to tell it would stir up so much confusion in the family. However my aunt/cousin has confided in me many times that she wants to nkow who her father is. BTW my grandfather, her father is in his 80's. What's the best way to resolve this?!

My boyfriend and I have been living together for about 6 months. I'm very frustrated because, as much as I love him, he has a much higher tolerance for filth and mess than I do. At times I feel like I have a teenage boy living with me! (I'm 32, he's 35.) I feel like so much of the house work falls to me - laundry, cooking, bathroom cleaning, meal planning...we both work full time, and I have a 5 year old son who lives with us. I have asked him to help me more, told him I'm tired of being "the laundry *****." I've gotten really mad and yelled at him a couple times. And it's better for a few days, and then back to where we started. I'm frustrated. Please help!

I am 25 years old my mother, father, and sister still treat me like im only 15. I have been married twice both ending in divorce. My parents are divorced and everytime I do something anything my family's always got a problem with it. I have a one year old son and live with my boyfriend. My boyfriend helped me get out of my moms house because she kept stealing my money and his money as well and lies about it. I have been called a bad mother, a drug addict, an alcoholic. That is just from my mom and sister. From my dad I get crushed for being poor, filing for bankruptcy, not being able to get my child support, and not being able to pay my dad for the car I got. only owe 250 dollars. I have not touched drugs since 2 years ago when I got kicked out of the army, I only go out on special occasion and drink and never drink at home or around my son. If I do drink, I won't lie I am a binge drinker. How can I tell my family what there saying about me is hard on me? Should I disown them?

My father has not spoken to me in about 5 years. Reason being I left home to go off to school. He was very upset with the fact that I went against his wishes, that were to stay at home and attend school. It's been 5 years since I have been able to spend a holiday with my family. My mother & I see each other once a week, b/c that's all we can work with. I made the attempt to go over to their home yesterday and try to repatch things up but before I could get there he was already cussing me out and saying that I wasnt welcomed. I dont want his aproval or his love I just want to be apart of my family again. The funny thing is he tells coworkers that he has a great relationship with me and that he has been putting me through school which is a total lie.

Should I give up?
