Family - January 2007

i have wagged school once in the past and my nan and grandad found out, they grounded me for 3 weeks.
i have recently done it since twice because of problems at school and my nan found out from my mother, who i thought wouldn't say anything being as i don't live with her and she said she wouldn't say anything. my nan has also found out i smoke and drink occasionally. why hasn't she said anything to me? she acts like i haven't done anything wrong. i can't look her in the eye, but she doesn't know i know she knows. should i just admit it before she has chance to ask me about it?

I have been contemplating moving from the east coast to CA to escape this cold weather and allergies which always seem to go away in CA.

There are a few things which concern me- the major one being my family. I feel very attached to my sister and 6 month old nephew. The other concern is the cost as I don't pay rent right now and I am going back to school, ....that would mean out of state tuition, although I have a family member who is going to help out with the tuition costs.

I want a fresh start and warm weather but I am not sure if moving across the country is the right decision or not. I love California and have always dreamed of picking up and leaving. I am just not sure if this is best left a dream or to just say scr%w it and give it a go. I feel like if I am ever going to make the move- now is the time as I am single still. Any thoughts or advice from someone who has been in this situation or maybe made that move from the east coast to west?

I was so mad, my pulse soared and I started shaking.. Now i can hear the veins throbbing in my temples.. its too long a storey to go into, so i'll just cut to the chase -
How can I de-stress? I can't remember the last time i was so mad.. i can't calm down

Stuck in the middle only have a 100 pound to spend. Its not enough to hire a hall, bouncy castle or disc jockey. So thinking a soft play centre, with family and a few chosen classmates - or - pizza hut with just the family and cinema later. The trouble with inviting classmates, last year nobody turned up, even thou they accepted the invitation. I dont want a repeat of last year. It ruined his birthday.

The reason why i worry so much about it is, because his cousins who we invite have the full works when its their birthday and i often get critized from the in-laws and adult realtives about my choice in parties.

Well, I moved from another state a couple months ago and me and my husband had no house so we agreed to move in with my brother and his girlfriend.We are moving monday to our own house,but my problem is, yesterday they went shopping and usually we write our names on all our food so we know who's is who's....but she wrote on their butter tub- Do Not Touch, I will KILL you, I will KILL you in your sleep!
Lately she has had an attitide towards me and my husband and I am very upset by her writing that.To me, that is a death threat.If I called the police, will they just laugh at me? or can they do something about this? what would they do? What should I do? I tried talking to her and she just has an attitude.....

Last night, I got into a huge fight with my mom, because she tried to say I called a sex line, which I did not. You see, she was charged 15$ extra this month for her phone bill, so she called Eastlink ( out phone service) and asked what was up. They told her there were 3 calls made to a 1-900 number, at 2.99$ per minute! They also told her it was either a party line or a sex line. There is no possibility that anyone in the house called those numbers, because it's just, my mom, me and my 9 year old brother and I swear to God I didn't do it. But now , I can't imagine what she thinks of me, she said I'm nothing but a liar and everything.. I even called the cable company to see if they made any mistake and they said no! We have out internet and cable from the same company and I'll admit I was on some sites I shouldn't have been. Could that have showed up with the phone bill in any way? If not, what could have caused this and how can I get my dignity back? HELP!

My 15 year old stepson seems to have now manipulated his mother into buying his cigarettes. I am flabbergasted about it. Her excuse is that he is going to smoke no matter what she does.

My name is John, I turned sixteen last week and I live with my Nan and Grandad. I lead a normal life with my family just like any other really. But I’m not here to talk about the present; I’m here to talk about the past, but let me tell you I am not here to talk about happy families.
It all happened a year ago. It was my mum and dad’s wedding anniversary and, as usual, my dad was late home from work; God knows where he had been that day he always worked a long way away from home. My dad was the best salesman in the business, we were always quiet well off so to speak. Well we weren’t low on money ever...

I am a single Grandmother. I love my daughter more than anything but at this time my 19 month old grandson, in which I keep atleast 3 to 4 times a week (all night), is not being taken care of as he should. I don't necessarily mean abused but I do feel like he's being neglected. The father to him doesn't work and so self-involved it is unreal. At this time I have recieved info that the father is using steroids and I have researched the side effects and so forth on this and my daughters only worry right now is him being happy and nothing else. My grandson has been crying and wont let go of me when they come to pick him up and there has got to be some reasong for this. I have no proof at this time but am considering fighting for temporary custody of him and need to know exactly what legal rights I have. My daughter says she would but she knows his father would have a fit. He knows this is the only control and hold he has over my daughter. I just want whats best for my grandson.

Dad has raised girl her whole life, but now she wishes to leave home to live in a house with no regular meals, safety or comfort. The only thing she doesn't get at home now is her own way. Can she legally go? This is tearing our family apart, and the two little ones aged 3 &1, who are 'ours', are in the middle, and I'm fed-up of being 'evil' stepmum all the time, while bm is praised for smoking weed, and even though teen didn't get any Xmas pressies from bm, that's O.K. because she doesn't have any money, but we don't want to pay for a holiday to prague, and we the meanest people on Earth!!! She wants to go, but can we stop her?

I can't say anything w/o my daughter in law making it about her. I've lost my son just because he loves her. Well guess that is all I can do w/o smacking her in the mouth. I have never done anything to this girl. EVER! But she actually hates me. It started when she wouldn't even invite myself or my Dad to their wedding because she thinks we are an embarrassment. Guess my son has been the one to let it happen and that really hurts. I'm so glad I can chat my issues on here and not be judged.

I will be moving down south in 4 years away from my family and friends, ( i dont get on with them all that well anyway), but its away from everything i know and it a bit scary. also theres the money issue, where its so expensive to get a house now and all the extra costs cause we are moveing 400 miles away. its just all so stressful and i just panic that we dont have enough money, or my boyfriend doesnt get a decent job. he is from down south so he'll be fine, where as me i wont have any friends, just his family. i really want to go i just panic a little. any ideas how i can make myself feel more positve on the matter? as i have wanted to move since i was young, its just so close now.

My girlfriend is 17 years old and we live in Kentucky. Everyone is telling me that she can move out of her house at the age of 17 years old on her free will and there is nothing that the law nor parents can do about it. And the legal age of consent here is 16 years old so they cant really place her as a run away child. I am 19 years old and she is pregnant. But however Ive read over the sex laws here and there is nothing her parents can do about it with her being over age of consent. But the main question here, is can she move in with me or a friend or with me and my mother at age 17 years old on her own free will... Like I stated, everyone else has told me that you can but your parents still have control over you as in medical terms, and could possibly even revoke her drivers license until she is of 18 years old. If anyone could find any helpful links that would also be greatly appriciated, thank you for your time...

I don't know what to do, me and my brother have worked together in the evening for about a year now and we both still live at home however i am hoping to move out soon cos i am just getting so fed up with him. He's 35 and i'm 27. The thing is a guy started at work about 7 months ago and since then me and him have got on really well. We've been out a few times as friends but i have developed strong feelings for him and i am getting the feeling he likes me too. But my brother just hates it! He is the most jealous person i have ever known, he can be spiteful and vindictive. Because he hasn't got any friends or girlfriend he won't let me either. I am worried that he is going to say something to my guy friend and turn him against me. If i talk to him he might go and have it out with my brother but then my brother's said if he ever did he'd have us all out of a job. What can i do, it's so difficult cos i get it at home and work and it really makes me upset. Sorry for this being long!

So think of people who have children out of wedlock... not that its going to send you to hell or anything, it happens. But think of the child that grows up in that situation. What happens with them? Does the mother usually allow the father to have a relationship with the child? What if the parents never marry and still keep in contact, what is the relation like between the three people? How do you think the child will grow up and have relationships later in life, will they follow in their parents' footsteps?

I've always wondered this. If you grew up like this, please give a little bit of your childhood relationships with your parents, thank you.
