My brother's friend stays in our home and he's like a brother to me. Thios is the first year of us being so close and I'd like to get him a gift, but he's hard to buy for. he's a 15 yr old goth.
I fugured music would be a good gift, but he burns all his own music. and he used to love hot topic clothes but they don't stock what he likes anymore.
so what should I get for him?

I come from a poor family. Out of the 4 of us kids that are working, I'm the only one that helps the family out financially. I didn't mind at first but although I work 50+ hours a week at an ok job, which is about an hour and a half drive away. I never have money nor time for myself. I'm starting to have debts that I can't pay and my family keeps asking for more. Is it wrong to just want to walk away from all of this even though I know it would end up destroying the lives of my younger brothers and sister if I did?

Visits, phone calls, things of that nature. Is going to visit on weekends and sometimes twice daily phone calls unusual? Visits can last for up to 8 hours and phone calls are to just check in and chat. It used to be twice weekly visits and up to 7 phone calls a day. What is the norm? Parents live 30 miles away.

Every year my family draws names to see who has to get a gift for whom. This year I am purchasing for my 23 year old cousin, who is a guy. I don't hang out with him much anymore, so I don't know what he's into, but I do know that he likes poker and he's a DJ. He already has a poker set and I know nothing about DJ stuff. Any suggestions related to those things or something generic that almost all 23 year old guys would like?

I am 13 and my cousin is 14. I was sleeping over her house when she kissed me, my chest and touched my private. She told me not to tell or she would say I did it to her. My mom and dad make me hang out with her all the time. I feel horrible and violated by my own family member. What should I do?

If you were adopted by someone and recently found out you had a half-sister, would you try to contact her? I have known I was given up by my birth father (but I don't remember him) , but recently found about my half-sister. My mother is my birth mother and my adopted Dad will ALWAYS be my Dad. I have mixed emotions...I'm curious to learn of my birth father and half-sister, but yet I'm also afraid. My birth father has not been in my life since I was 4 months old(more than 40 years ago) Maybe I should leave well enough alone, but then again maybe my half-sister would like to know she has a sister. I have no other siblings.

My family won't let my come back home to their Christmas party. They say that if I really am their family member I was to be a christian just like they were and the belive I was born into. And one time they even say that they will write a will that says all the inheritance will go to the relatives just because they have the same believe. And everytime when I go home when school close they always try to convert me. I have respect for all religions out there because all of them helps people understands life each in their own ways and allows people to live on with peace. But why can't they do that just like other people in this country where there is freedom of religion?

My husband recently just had a stroke. His left side was effected by it. a lot of things he couldn't do by himself. I mainly did everything for him. Now that he is getting his movement back he is still depending on me to do these things for him (knowing he can do it himself) . He gets mad at me sometimes but lately i been feeling like it pure LAZINESS. I feel like he knows that i will do anything for him so he takes advantage of me. Don't get me wrong i love my husband very much & i cant find myself telling him no. Maybe i feel sorry for him also feel very bad about what happen to him (being the fact that he is only 27)

For years I have had Thanksgiving and Christmas now my brother is with someone I can't really stand. Now she wants Christmas at her house with my family and her family and her family is like loosers really bad. They all drink and smoke where we don't. So am I being a bit_ _. by wanting holidays at home like I have always had and being with my family that I love? I have 2 girls and don't want them near things they do. I was brought up to be around the ones you love and no alcohol on those special days. And I feel and this woman my brother is with is stepping on my toes and I really don't like that.She already knows I really don't like her. Only deal with her cuz of my brother. I wouldn't want her as a friend other wise.

I'm starting my finals week in college, i'm having lots of problems with my parents (I can never seem to please them no matter how hard I try, we fight over EVERYTHING!), my goals seem to be changing now that I'm in a relationship. I thought my career would be the most important thing---but now I'm beginning to want to start a family at a younger age. I love the fact that my mom is still young (she had me and my brother before she was 21) and I would love to be a young mother. Yes, I'm aware its not as easy as it sounds but how do I get my motivation back? My boyfriend is very encouraging telling me to finish school and all that. I just don't know where I'm at in my life right now. How do I deal with all the stress...ugh too many questions lol.

I'm the youngest of 4 and I live with my mother who is divorced and recently my eldest sibling has left to college. This made me start thinking about when my other siblings leave I'll be alone with her and I don't know how I'll be able to deal with her! She wroks all day and she's done so many things for me when she could've been something else she's always dreamed of but I can't respect her!

I've always been on my dad's side even though he is doing horrible things to our family [the main one is he moved to CHINA!!! If he moved any farther he'd only get closer!] And now I have no sides really but I'm still constantly avoding her. Making jokes, talking back, screaming or yelling, leaving her out of my life and I've never really been on a "mother/daughter" with her since I was 5! I really don't know what to do since I'm the worst child she could ever have.

P.S. She says "I love you" to me every night and I can never say "I love you" back without felling guilty for weird reasons....

Do you have a big family? Do you like it? Do you wish you have one if you don't? I have a big family and I love it. I have 11 siblings. They are so much fun to be around a lot of them time. The only thing about having a big family though is that we have to have hand me downs and stuff... its a treat when we get new things from the store instead of from an older brother or sister but still I'd rather have a bunch of siblings and old clothes then no siblings and new clothes.
