Since meeting my husband approximately 4 yerars ago and marrying him 7 months ago I've been dealing with his mother. I have bent over backward for this woman, we have catered to her when she has called, carried her with us everywhere we've gone etc. Then she lost her house and began living with my husband in a 2 bedroom apt. While dating my husband I worked a 50 hour week and then drove 3 hours to see him when I would finish my week. I would arrive at his house usually around 2:30 in the morning. Hiis mother had no qualms about getting up at 6 banging around in the kitchen, marching through our bedroom etc. O.K. I put up with this. Then mother's day after I become engaged to my husband she shows me 2 diamond necklaces she has bought, one for her daught4er and one for her daughter-in-law. She also showed me cards that had lovely sentiments about these 2 women. She said to me Your not a mother and your not my daughter-in-law yet so I didn't get you anythng. I'm so angry and hurt.

My Grandma passed away 18 months ago. Ever since then my Grandad has been (understandably) depressed. He's 82.
Well, he has made a friend and has asked if he can bring her to Christmas lunch.
I think this is wonderful. His 'friend' has given him a reason to get up in the morning and put a smile on his face.
However, my sister, whose house Christmas lunch is at, is unhappy about it. She says Christmas is 'just for family'.
She has told my mother her feelings, and now our mother doesnt know whether she should 'uninvite' Grandads friend.
What do you think? Is it too soon? Or does my sister need a kick up the bum?

I just turned 14, and my brother is going on 10. My mom always works so hard for us, and we have never given her anything mroe than a simple card with a drawing. Please do not suggest flowers. Besides flowers, earrings, and clothes, what else can we get her?

Every sunday me and my teacher play piano at church. On x-mas morning he wants me to play by myself which is no big deal while he sits with his family. But it will mess up x-mas morning with my family. Should I tell him no?

She got mad because my son didn't invite her to his wedding (small private 3 people) in January but did invite her to the reception. She blamed me and I told her it was his decision.

I have a 14 year old son and a 7,4 and last son 2mth's old. I was just wondering if my 14 year old is mature enough to watch the 2 mth old.

I was told that I could get into alot of trouble if I let my 14 yr. old babysit the 2mth old. If not 14, then at what age is it considered mature enough to watch a 2 mth old.

Thank you for responding....

I have this younger sister who is 15 and she still acts like a 6 year old! Except in school where she is doing very well. She follows me around asking me what I’m doing or where I'm going, she has no respect for me or my privacy, She goes through my stuff and doesn’t put it back, when she gets into trouble she blames me! But there’s more: She yells at me, sasses me, makes rude faces at me, flips me off, and on top of all that she listens in on my phone calls when I’m taking to my boyfriend!!! My parents tell me to be more patient with her and to calm down, but they don’t under stand! I feel like s***!! What should I do?!!!!

The lady is very rude to my niece and her brother about there birth mother. She hates their real Mom, so she is very rude about things and hates them because she hates their mother. She is very nice around the kids while her husband (my husband's brother) is around. He has no idea so when the kids try to tell them what happens when he's gone, he never listens and then the kids get torcherd more! They are good kids and they don't deserve to be treated that way. She also has a child who is 5 and handicapped and he has one bone in each arm so he can't bend his arms. ( No Joints) He is VERY spoiled. How to I get her to be nice and any suggestions on how to handle this situation???

if you smoke, when did you tell them that you smoke and what did they say or do? And how old were you? I'm wondering because my sister has started and had to go through the telling parents thing. I started 8 years ago when i was 16 and both parents went mad. Now my mum things its funny when i have to go outside when we're shopping to have a cig. It took them 2 years to let me smoke in front of them, even though they let anyone else smoke which really made me mad!

Ok this goes for both me and my sister. We have small waists but a bigger bottom. And NO its NOT Huge, just bigger for a white girl. Anyway, both of our Mother in Laws rub in our face how they wear a size "6" or "8". One is short with a big O stomach and skinny legs and NO ***. And the other is tall and the same. My MIL always tells me how after giving birth shes always been able to get right back in her pre pregnancy pants and the lost the weight fast. For me I still have have some to lose and am bigger by one pant size. Even though i wear a 12 Im by far smaller then she. For my sis her MIL told her sraight out That she was way skinner and would sit in the back with the kids. The thing is I dont understand why they have to make it a point every single time about how they "Think" there skinner and that we are fat. Is this a jealousy issue? My MIL brings it up all the time. Im tired of it. I cant even go shopping with her cuz she makes remarks that shes never worn a size so big.

my uncle has been teasing me and bugging me a lot( asking for money, calling me a crybaby). Last year he tried to hurt some people in my family (i think he was 'high' on something) are there any ways to help him, or do we all just have to wait, because i think he's got an addiction
P.S: I saw on the google that someone in my family typed in 'rehab'

it's been 2 years since my grandfather died, and at random times I tend to either break down in sadness or frustration in the fact that he didn't tell us how long he had to live (only a few months, went by too quickly). Christmas was his birthday and it's been hard these last two years. He was a good man - family man (6 kids), businessman, community leader, well liked by the community, hard working man all around. still haven't found the right way to deal with his death, 2 years after the fact..I talked with legenday 49ers defensive end (?) Bubba Smith yesterday at my local Wal-Mart, and he being an ordaned minister, I asked his advice - he said to first of all talk about it online (which is what I'm doing now), do the best I can every day to honor him, and know that I have to find my OWN drive in life, not my grandfather's. It felt great at the time (got a nice photo with him) & the advice helped, but it's still a heavy time mentally for me now. how do I deal with all this emotion?
