My parents were not too big on empathy, and I was verbally and emotionally abused as a child.When I was sick, my mother would either accuse me of faking or yell at me for "getting sick again" I was called stupid, dumbo, etc. for various reasons. My mom said I was "as big as a house" when I was maybe 20 lbs overweight.I was dragged into their arguments.There was never any physical abuse of or by anyone.Once when I fell roller skating and hit my head HARD, I got nauseous, terrible headache, irritability etc. My dad picked me up at the rink, I told him what happened. I dont remember what he said right then, but on the way home in the car he suddenly yelled, "STOP BEING SO FRESH!!" Hello...I was nauseous, terrible headache, irritability which are common following a bump on the head. I cried all the way home, he just ignored me.My mom called the doc, he said to bring me to ER if I vomited,I didint. I think this is really gettingto me because a few weekends a month my boyfriends son is here.

Whenever I am speaking to my sister and she refers to one of our parents she says "my mom" or "my dad." Why can't she just refer to them as mom or dad? I just find it really strange and I want insight as to why she might do this? I don't want to ask her because she is very argumentative and I don't want to start a war.

Somebody posted a question "What would you change if you had to do it all over again" I started to answer & i got depressed soI canceled. They say you shouldn't regret anything in life, but I often feelas if I had the opportunity to turn out just as "perfect"as my brother & I didn't, I chose all the wrong things & made all the wrong decisions I was the "rebel" of the family, no I don't like my self & my life perticularly too much & I often feel that I wish I wouldnt have done what I did seen the things I saw been exposed to the peopel I have met...how do I get over that? How do I make peace?

I have grown to have so much hatered toward my mother.When she is around my husband all she dose is follow him around and drive him crazy. She barely even asks me how I am. This is because she is not married anymore so she obesses over my husband becuase she dosne't have a man of her own around anymore. She comes to the city I live in all the time and it never even accurs to her to come vist me. When I was pregnant the frist time she was more worried about buying the cute little baby stuff for the baby then she was actucally worried about my pregnantcy and how I felt. Infact she didn't call me the whole time when I was pregnant to see how my frist pregnantcy was going. Now I'm pregnant again. I don't even want to tell her. She NEVER calls me just to see how I am. I don't want her trying to suck up to me just becasue of the baby. I love my mother ofcourse, but sometimes I just want to completely give up on her because of her behavior.

My mother also betrayed my trust differently, she was manipulative. Ive had anxiety problems since my early teen years and around age 18 became severly depressed (I got a thyroid imbalance at this age and my mom acted very cold). I have a strained relationship with my mother and resent her lots, yet I dont feel any resentment towards my father (he died just a year after the abuse) I wonder how did my father's trust betrayal could affected me, he abused me when I was 7 or 8 years old so I am not sure what my life would turn out to me if the sexual abuse didnt happen.

My daughters father lives in another state and I have her call him on the weekends. He doesn't answer or he returns her calls a few weeks later. She has a step dad now who loves her like his own. Should I say something to her dad about this or not? I am afraid that if I do I will go off on him because it hurts me seeing how hurt she is by him not calling her. He doesn't have visitation, so when he wants her to come up during the summer, should I let her go? I just think that if he loves her he would call her every weekend and be in her life more and not when it is convenient for him.

A couple years ago, me, my boyfriend, and his 4 yr.old daughter had went to visit his brother. During the visit, the daughter was lying in the floor on her stomach and her pants had wiggled down to where her crack was exposed slightly. When this happened my boyfriend's 40 year old brother gotten down in the floor and started rubbing his finger up and down her buttcrack and talking about how cute it was. NOT only was it uncomfortable for the rest of us, including her father, but she was mortified. At the time we had not been dating but a couple of weeks, so I didn't really know what to do, and I confronted my boyfriend about the behavior of his brother. He said it shocked him too. I was appalled at his refusal to confront his brother. So I threatened him that if he did not confront his brother and tell him not to ever touch his daughter again, that I would talk to child protective services. Upon this threat he talked to his brother about my stance.

In all of her past rehab attempts she would check herself in therefore she could check herself out, and I don't think I have to explain the rest. She is currently in a court mandated halfway house type facility. Its a nine month program, the only catch is that it is supposed to be for ppl that want to change, and she lied to them saying she was ready, but her probation officer told her it was rehab or Jail. So anyway after being there for 3 months she get to come home for a weekend. One of my cousins went and got her, she told me I had to take her back, & on the way stop by and pick up her friend & take her back too. But she did not tell us it was 3 hrs out of our way!! While she was home she stole $200.00 from my mom and tore up my dads ATV being reckless driving it with her friends after midnight one night. So I realize that she hasnt changed & tell her not to call me until she does. Now she is telling everyone we know that we have disowned her, and ppl are looking down on us. Help

My son is 9 mos. old & I am visitng with relatives for Christmas. My husband is deployed & our son's the only grandbaby and my hubby is an only child. His grandmother, my son's great grandmother, is not respecting my wishes to allow him to just whine when he's bored or cry for a short time before he goes to sleep. I don't just let him scream, but he must learn that I can't drop everything to get him if he's just bored. I've told her several times an it goes in one ear & out the other. His dad and I also don't do baby talk, we encourage real words. Mimi (the greatgrandmom) does not. She teaches him sensless noise and won't respect me or his dad there either. My hubby's parents are fine with what we want, but it's Mim who is not and she is living with my hubby's parents. I am staying with them for my visit because my parent's house is full and hotels are pricey. What can I do to get Mimi to understand that I'm glad she loves my son but I need her to respect my wishes about him?

My brother has just started seeing this girl, who we have never met but she comes round every other day but she is so loud you can hear everthing she is saying from the bottom off the stairs. I dont mind when we are not trying to get to sleep but when we go to bed, you have got her shouting whilst she is talking, his tv and radio on at the same time on full blast and her shouting over it as well. When you tell them that where going to bed you will expect her to whisper or talk quietly but all they do is turn down the volume and then carry on shout talking. Then when they think where all asleep which we are not, this is 3:00pm in the morning i add, the turn they Volume on again and she even sings her head off to at this time. Last night the music was abba and snow patrol also hey jude. I dont know what to do, as i dont want to confront him as last time he was making loads of noise with a girl, we didnt see her again and he seems happy with this girl.

And I'm fed up, my sister has been a complete cow.

I have 3 children and my exes were violent
I get no help whatsoever from anyone and I'm also trying to come to terms with my daughter dying.

I haven't had a night out in over a year


I've been so positive recently and I didn't even kick off when I ended up paying her £400 council tax bill

I've got my driving test tomorrow and I feel so useless.

All this as she was supposed to babysit while I took the baby to the contact center to see her Dad.Then she said she didn't want to.

Her response was that I always expect people to feel sorry for me.

I haven't lived in my house for long and she had been telling me that I need to have it decorated ready for them to visit at Xmas.

Why are people so nasty
I'm always the 1st to help anyone if they need it.

My son has. This upsets me greatly. I can understand if I were dead, or a criminal or drug addict or something, but I'm not. I want to be with my son every day, but my ex-girlfriend just made up a bunch of lies and took him. Has anyone grown up with an experience like that? Has anyone had a father that they loved but was withheld from him because of their mothers bitterness and manipulative nature?
