Family - December 2006

It's a bit embarressing for me, especially my father bc he looks so old but family is important and they aren't always gonna be around to spend time with. I don't want to waste precious time with my family bc I'm afraid of humiliation or seeing someone I know. How many of you would go see a movie with your parents? To what age would you go see a movie with your parents?

I'm 13. My dad likes Cedric The Entertiner. I got him a ticket to go see him do a comedy act in Chicago (30 minutes away from us), but he will have to go alone becuase I only had that much money. Do you think he will like it?

Tonight I am going to the movies to see The Pursuit of Happiness and I am really excited but there is a problem. I am going with my mother, my aunt, my 17 year old cousin and his girlfriend. My cousin and his girlfriend are little punks and are completely immature. They often say that they think it's funny to laugh at innappropriate times, and are constantly joking about the STUPIDEST things amongst themselves. The girlfriend is usually disrespectful towards adults. How do I handle it when, during the movie, they start acting out? I want to enjoy my movie. Also, they were not invited, my aunt is just bringing them along. To top it all off, my aunt thinks they are perfect angels that can do NO wrong, so saying anything to her is useless and actually I would be the bi%ch if I dared to say anything about their behavior. Any suggestions? PLEASE

I have stopped covering for my children's legal father. I used to be the person who would make excuses for him not calling or doing what real daddy's do. Now, he's upset with me because they know he's not paying child support or taking care of their emotional or financial needs. He hasn't visited them since August of '06 and phone calls are rare.

How is this not their business when it affects them? Some of it they found out on their own...but I did tell them about the child support when they wanted something from the store and I couldn't get it for them because of not having the cash because I spent what I had on their needs.

I think they need to know the real person he is.

I think I should have stopped covering for him a long time ago. Do you think he has a right to be mad at me for it?

She caught her dad watching really sick uncensored stuff eversince her brother got a new high defenition television with the 900 or so channels. Her mom works the night shift so she has no clue about it but shes been thinking about telling her ,so her dad would stop it ,but she can see that her parents are already on the brink of getting a divorce. She says shes been having nightmares about her father and the things he does behind his familys back. She dispises her own father and never reponds when he tells her he loves her...I belive she truly does hate him. Its a heart breaking sight and now shes asking me for advice,but unfortunately i have nothing...so what do i say?

I have a very selfish to be sister in law and his mom and dad are not as bad but they are still adjusting to all the changes. My family on the other hand is supportive of our decisions and also respects them, so at least we have that. Its just so stressful!! Feel free to comment about the subject!

What I mean is that my sister has a Juicy Couture perfume and bag and I don't. She has a i-pod and I don't. She has a chanel purse and I don't.(Not that I want a 1,000 dollar purse)She also has a Burberry London purfume and i don't. I know she works for it but I think shes getting a little too much. I'm not jealous. Is there something you can tell me to help me feel better?

Ok, something is wrong with my mom, mentally. So now she's gone to our grandparents house to talk crazy and my aunt wants to get her to go and get electro shocks to her brain to disable part of it, and if my mom is gone I would be taken away, god im so scared. my dad is calling all of our family and saying shes insane, so they might try to send her somewhere right now, i dont even know. I want her to live a happy life somewhere, maybe in a mental hospital, but not like a zombie. i cant find a reason to live anymore, if she doesnt come back tomorrow i dont know what ill do, my dad is getting sick of her and shes done this 8 years. this is just so complicated, theres other stuff going on to, and i just dont know what to do anymore.

im only 15, what can i do? this is so tense right now i mean what if she doesnt come back tonight like she said? what if i never see her again? our family even put an investigator down here because they believed in what she said, so now theyre mad.

My mother yells all the time. I talked with her about it last year, and she said that if I did the right thing, then she wouldn't yell. Therefore, this year, I worked really hard to be a better kid and do all my chores. But she stills just as much at the most miniscule things.

For instance, today, she yelled at me because I left some chicken outside the freezer for five minutes.

Today, her yelling got so excessive that I almost told her to shut the f up. (but I didn't)

What do you think I should do about this? I've tried talking with her calmly, ignoring her, or standing up to her. But she refuses to see the wrongs in her actions and keeps doing it, and it's driving me crazy.
