my dad smokes in the house whenever i ask him to go outside he gets mad whenever i bring up the subject. we are always fighting. he doesn't seem to care about any thing but himself. I left my dads house for a while when he got his 2nd owi. i said i would only come back if he didn't drink so much and if he smoked outside. he smoked outside for 1 day. I have been thinking about moving in with my mom because she doesn't drink or smoke at all, and we get along better. what should i do??

i have been getting into fights with my parents, with my dad. he hits me sometimes, i cant get along with my little brother, and just last week i almost ran away. just today i got into another argument with them because i had to stay and watch my little brother instead of go by a friends house which i had been planning to do. in ther argument i told my dad i should just go kill myself so your lives would b better. he said if your so big then go do it, so i went into the kitchen and cut myself. nothing serious b/c i was scared, it looks more like a paper cut. but when my parents saw me they said that i need help. they would have me monitored and have me talk to someone, a counselor or something. but i dont want 2. i dont want them thinking that im crazy or anything. ive prayed about it, but i dont kno what else i to do. im being really serious about tihs question. does anyone have any advice on what i should do? plz b serious about this, im really hurt and fragile rite now...

No offense to any of you good ones out there but I have a step mom who has treated me like crap ever since I met her. She has hurt me and called my real mom names and I cant take it. Have you ever had this problem?

I really don't know if I'm wrong or my parents are in this situation. I think because I'm an only child and I had a lot of surgery maybe when I was a little kid so they had to take care of me a lot my parents have wanted to do everything for me. I mean everything, until sixth grade they would basically grab my homework, without me asking or suggesting anything and do it for me for the most part. They have always wanted to do every little thing. But the thing is I didn't become spoiled or anything, when I thought I might be starting to and I hated myself and I wanted to do more things on my own so I would feel better about myself. I have wanted a job for five years and they have been so negative about it. SO now I'm 18 and I almost feel like its condescending and they want to do everything still. Like today I have a school project to work on and my mom all day was really pushy, she wanted to be involved in every little step, and every time. (we had this conversation at least 5 times) I would tell her I really appreciate it but I don't want her to have to take all her time and don't worry about me. And she just started yelling at me like "you know what, i'm not trying to be an a**hole I'm just trying to help. screw it i'm going to bed" i thought she overreacted. I really appreciate and understand but its starting to affect my selfesteem, it always has but now that i'm older its more. Am i wrong or are they wrong?

I have friend who is going through some family issues. The father of her children and she were never married unfortunately and she has full custody and the father only has visitation rights. But now, she wants to move to another city but the father will not let them because he said that she needs his permission to move. Is this true? She said that he will still have his visitations. What's the problem?

I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years and last year I moved in with him at his parents house. I never liked his family but I do love him. I want us to move out but right now we don't have the money and I'm sick and tired of them. Any advice?

(By the way he's going to be 21 soon and I'm 18.)

A very hard question to think about maybe, I've never experienced this.

How did you feel? What did you do to overcome the loss?

we'd rather them NOT kiss him? They're coming to see him for the first time next week, and will be traveling on a plane. I don't want them kissing him on the mouth after traveling and being around hundreds on people in the middle of flu season. Is that rude??? Also we've asked them to stay in a hotel because we only have a one bedroom apt. and my husband and I and the newborn and 2 cats all live there, and I feel it would be too crowded and messy with them sleeping on the living room floor for 4-5 nights. Then the middle of the night wakings when I like to go into the kitchen and get a drink and pump sometimes. Is this asking too much??? My husband's kinda making me feel bad about asking them to do this because he thinks we only should've been able to ask them to do this when he was FIRST brought home from the hospital, but not now??? Any advice?

She really loves Math and, on her own, studies much more than required by her school. Sometimes she spends a whole Saturday afternoon stdudying math. This happened today, I told her Hun, please, today is Saturday, go have fun. She just said I'm having fun. Some people thinks she's weird, but fortunately she plays sports and hangs out with friends. But for now she's much more into her studies than into boys, she has never had a boyfriend. She's a member of some math groups and is frequently reading articles on Math and asking for the help of mathematicians.
She's a good girl, doesn't get in troubles, sometimes doesn't even seem to be a teen. It's strange, but she turned 15 this month and for gift asked us a Math book! Do you think there´s something wrong with her? I'm afraid she won't be a happy woman.

I'm 12, a month ago my mom got me some bras. I didn't enjoy that thing but mom said I needed one and I had no choice. She helped me choose my bras, was very patient, treated me with love but forced me to wear one. After I tried on a bunch I said I didnt want to wear one but mom just said Hun, this option you dont have. Not fair, but I got stuck to a bra. Yesterday I took it off and put it in my purse, didnt want to wear. But I had a so terrible lucky that I forgot to put it on before getting back home and mom found out
what I did. She didn't get so mad, but said what I did was wrong. So, I have to write 20 times a text she dictated to me about why I shouldn't do what I did. It's not that long, I've written 10 times and took a break. I told mom I had written enough, she didn't agree but at least said OK kun, 15 times is enough and you're free, but promise me you won't do that again. I promised, must
agree it wasn't a harsh punishment, but wasnt it unfair anyway? I dont like bras.

My mother is convinced she can't get a life insurance policy (just for burial purposes) because she has degenerative disc disease and that it would be too expensive.

I know people who have heart conditions (including relatives) who died and their family had life insurance for them. She has no life ins on her but my father has it on him. All my siblings including myself have gotten into arguments with her because we don't want to have to foot all the bills after she has passed away and we equally don't think my father should take out a loan to pay for her burial.

I've seen these commercials with AARP through New York Life stating that regardless of age or health condition you can get a $10,000 policy. Are there such policies out there and can I get a policy on her without her knowing about it? I want to do this to have a peace of mind and don't want to see my father go through all these stressful things when she passes away. Do I need her SS# to do this?

My father married a woman 17yrs his junior 6 yrs ago. I come from an upper middle class family - We believe in hard work= good living - this woman -although very pretty- was a single mother with two kids on welfare. She literally went from her parents home- to her ex husbands- to my dads home, never having ever worked in her life.(she still does not have a job)

I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt- Even took her and her mother on a long weekend to Charleston- a girls bonding type of thing- It was not fun.
Okay so that is the history- here is my problem-
She is very judgemental and does not like my fiance b/c she thinks his line of work (construction and design) is beneath "our family". My fiance and I recently bought a house 10 min from them and they have yet to come by, despite my invites, we have not been invited there either. I have spoken with my dad about this, but he claims he likes my fiance and there is no problem. What the hell do I do?

I was given up for adoption when I was born but have always had some info on my parents (mainly just there names). I have looked randomly online for any info to find them with little or no luck since I was about 14. Well recently I confirmed my father had died but out of the blue the past week I have found out where my mother lives and I don't know if I should contact her or not. My adopted mother died recently and I have no other family so I want to but I have bad feelings about pursuing her so soon after my adopted mother has died. Or if she would even want me contacting her. What should I do?
