I had no clue she wanted me to mop her floors, dust her do-dads. HOWEVER i always was nice, whenever we ate over i helped with the dishes. I use her washer and drier. ONe night she comes home (just about thirty minutes after I had). I was outside with my husband working on my mother in law's sister's truck, and so we go inside. Suddenly she's standing in front of my husband and yelling at him, "BROOKE GOT OFF AT THREE! WHY WASN"T SHE HERE COOKING!" I walk calmly in and ask what was I supposed to cook? She flings out her arms, "ANYTHING!" I had been in town all day, sure i got off at three, but i wasn't home. My father in law tried to run away, my husband left to go over to their house . He was gone for hours. She threw a temper, said all sorts of nasty things to my husband about me, called everyone awful names, and hurt everyone's feelings. All because she wanted the floors moped and things dusted. Happens once a yr. Mental problem? or just a jerk...?

What does anyone think about the fact that society seems to encourage us to focus on our careers in our early 20s and nothing about family? What about people whose greatest desire is to get married and have kids? Nobody around the age of 20 seems to talk about this. It's always 'focus on yourself and your career and family can come later'. It seems as if being a family oriented person is becoming a relic of the past.

I was a single mom therefore, I allowed my son to sleep in the same bed with me. No perversion in any way. I am completely covered. he has just always slept with me. For a while we had no choice had a small one bedroom apartment. he is a young teenager now. My mother has told me from day 1 this was just wrong that it was going to warp him. He is perfectally normal. I have raised a great child, but mother stays on my case constantly about it. What do you think?

This December I went over my friends house, who had a Wii, n convinced me it was awesome. Like an idiot i believed him(he is almost always wrong) n begged my parents for a Wii for christmas. When I saw I got one I flipped out! But when I played it, I found out it was NOTHING like my friend said. Now I have to ask my parents to return it because I dont want them to waste money, but I dont want to hurt their feelings that I didnt like their present. I dont want to hurt them but I dont want them to waste money. WHAT SHOULD I DO!

My mom, dad, brother and sister's on drugs, they don't know that I know, so what should I do, they don't really listen to me much... My mom and dad would go out on the weekends at night to a friend's house or the club and i KNOW they're using drugs, my brother and sister does too! My brother's really great, he's very smart and talented, but he's a high school drop out. He smokes weed ALOT!!! When i come in his room, i would always smell it... His friends are here every week, coming to our house, trashing the bathroom, eats all the food, and just do whatever they want! I can't say anything about it because i'm young... I would always try to not let my younger brother and sister not to smell anything. What should I do??? I REALLY need an answer.

I seemed to notice this over a long period of time. My dad tells me to do more chores than he does to him. If a problem occurs, he would often blame me for it. He puts the food closer to my brother at dinner time, and always asks him if he wants this, or that. He would always when he got back home from work go into my brother's room and ask how was his day and stuff, but rarely to me. If we did something wrong, he would forgive him but not me...I really am starting to see he prefers him over me.

Well, my half brother is 18 years old, not doing too well in school, and got accepted to a below-average college. He's also short tempered.
I'm 14 and I'm doing well in school. (straight A) I know how to control my temper, and i'm also getting taller than my brother.

It might be possible that my dad is trying to help him by treating him better, but I don't know. What do you people think?

My 7 year old is perfectly potty trained, but lately has started doing the nastiest thing EVER. Whenever I discipline him (no dessert for lying to me, for example), he says "FINE! Whatever!" and then, later, I'll find tied up Safeway bags all over the living room with something in them. I pick them up, and I kid you not, he TOOK A SHlT and PlSSED in those bags and tied them up, & tossed them in the living room for me to find. He's been doing this for a while! I consulted a psychologist AND his doctor about this, and they just said he was testing me. He still has his normal bathroom habits. He only does this when I discipline him. What would you do if your seven year old was DELIBERATELY doing this? When I asked him why he does this, he says "Because you're an asshoIe when you take away my video games or my dessert." ( <-- Lovely language courtesy of his K-8th grade school.)

This Will Make You Cry...maybe..
Jenny was so happy about the house they had found.
For once in her life 'twas on the right side of town.
She unpacked her things with such great ease.
As she watched her new curtains blow in the breeze.
How wonderful it was to have her own room.
School would be starting; she'd have friends over soon.
There'd be sleep-overs, and parties; she was so happy
It's just the way she wanted her life to be.
She made new friends and even got a date!
She thought, "I want to be popular and I'm going to be,
Because I just got a date with the star of the team!"
To be known in this school you had to have a clout,
And dating this guy would sure help her out.
There was only one problem stopping her fate.
Her parents had said she was too young to date.
"Well, I just won't tell them the entire truth.
They won't know the difference; what's there to lose?"
Jenny asked to stay with her friends that night.
Her parents frowned but said, "All right."
Excited, she got ready for the big event
But as she rushed around like ! she had no ense,
She began to feel guilty about all the lies,
But what's a pizza, a party, and a moonlight ride?
Well the pizza was good, and the party was great, But
the moonlight ride would have to wait.
For Jeff was half drunk by this time.
But he kissed her and said that he was just fine.
Then the room filled with smoked and Jeff took a puff.
Jenny couldn't believe he was smoking that stuff.
Now Jeff was ready to ride to the point
But only after he'd smoked another joint.
They jumped in the car for the moonlight ride,
Not thinking that he was too drunk to drive.
They finally made it to! the point at last,
And Jeff started trying to make a pass.
(And by a pass, I don't mean playing football.)
"Perhaps my parents were right....maybe I am too young.
Boy, how could I ever, ever be so dumb."
With all of her might, she pushed Jeff say away:
"Please take me home, I don't want to stay."
Jeff cranked up the engine and floored the gas.
In a matter of seconds they were going too fast.
As Jeff drove on in a fit of wild anger,
Jenny knew that her life was in danger.
She begged and pleaded for him to slow down,
But he just got faster as they neared the town.
"Just let me get home! I'll confess that I lied.
I really went out for a moonlight ride."
Then all of a sudden, she saw a big flash.
"Oh God, Please he! lp us! We're going to crash!"
She doesn't remember the force of impact.
Just that everything all of a sudden went black.
She felt someone remove her from the twisted rubble,
And heard, "call an ambulance! These kids are in
trouble!>> Voices she heard...a few words at best.
But she knew there were two cars involved in the wreck.
Then wondered to herself if Jeff was all right,
And if the people in the other car was alive.
She awoke in the hospital to faces so sad.
"You've been in a wreck and it looks pretty bad."
These voices echoed inside her head,
As they gently told her that Jeff was dead.
They said "Jenny, we've done all we can do.
But it looks as if we'll lose you too."
"But the people in the other car!? "Jenny cried.
"We're sorry, Jenny, they also died."
Jenny prayed, "God, forgive me for what I've done
I only wanted to have just one night of fun."
"Tell those people's family, I've made their lives dim,
And wish I could return their families to them."
"Tell Mom and Dad I'm sorry I lied,
And that it's my fault so many have died.
Oh, nurse, won't you please tell them that for me?"
The nurse just stood there-she never agreed.
But took Jenny's hand with tears in her eyes.
And a few moments later Jenny died.
A man asked the nurse, "Why didn't you do your best
To bid that girl her one last request?"
She looked at the man with eyes so sad.
"Because the people in the other car were her mom and dad."

"Abortion from a baby's point of view"

Dear Mommy,
I am in Heaven now, sitting on Jesus' lap. He loves me and cries with me; for my heart has been broken. I so wanted to be your little girl. I don't quite understand what has happened. I was so excited when I began realizing my existence. I was in a dark, yet comfortable place. I saw I had fingers and toes. I was pretty far along in my developing, yet not near ready to leave my surroundings. I spent most of my time thinking or sleeping. Even from my earliest days, I felt a special bonding between you and me. Sometimes I heard you crying and I cried with you. Sometimes you would yell or scream, then cry. I heard Daddy yelling back. I was sad, and hoped you would be better soon. I wondered why you cried so much. One day you cried almost all of the day. I hurt for you. I couldn't imagine why you were so unhappy. That same day, the most horrible thing happened. A very mean monster came into that warm, comfortable place I was in. I was so scared, I began screaming, but you never once tried to help me. Maybe you never heard me. The monster got closer and closer as I was screaming and screaming, "Mommy, Mommy, help me please; Mommy, help me." Complete terror is all I felt. I screamed and screamed until thought I couldn't anymore. Then the monster started ripping my arm off. It hurt so bad; the pain I can never explain. It didn't stop. Oh, how I begged it to stop. I screamed in horror as it ripped my leg off. Though I was in such complete pain, I was dying. I knew I would never see your face or hear you say how much you love me. I wanted to make all your tears go away had so many plans to make you happy. Now I couldn't; all my dreams were shattered. Though I was in utter pain and horror, I felt the pain of my heart breaking, above all. I wanted more than anything to be your daughter. No use now, for I was dying a painful death. I could only imagine the terrible things that they had done to you. I wanted to tell you that I love you before I was gone, but I didn't know the words you could understand. And soon, I no longer had the breath to say them; I was dead. I felt myself rising. I was being carried by a huge angel into a big beautiful place. I was still crying, but the physical pain was gone. The angel took me to Jesus and set me on His lap. He said He loved me, and He was my Father. Then I was happy. I asked Him what the thing was that killed me. He answered, "Abortion. I am sorry, my child; for I know how it feels." I don't know what abortion is; I guess that's the name of the monster. I'm writing to say that I love you and to tell you how much I wanted to be your little girl. I tried very hard to live. I wanted to live. I had the will, but I couldn't; the monster was too powerful. It sucked my arms and legs off and finally got all of me. It was impossible to live. I just wanted you to know I tried to stay with you. I didn't want to die. Also, Mommy, please watch out for that abortion monster. Mommy, I love you and I would hate for you to go through the kind of pain I did. Please be careful.

Love, Your Baby Girl

And they would figjht 24/7! and In the fifth grade, my dad decided to move to spain... and now.... several years later, he is in Argentina. And I mean, I have tried telling him that I miss him and It hurts me that he just LEFT me one day... but he just gets mad and yells at me. I love him omre than anything. but I can't help but cry every night. He already has a new wife and I think they will have other kids. I haven't even met her before, and I rarely get to talk to him. He doesn't even do anything to help my mom, and he is always really mean to her. I am just thankful that I have my mom, and that we are so close, but I still really wish my dad would come back, and we could all be happy again. I wish my parents never divorced. My dad's move has made my life hell.

As a teenager i see that when i do something like consider skipping school i think about how much my mom will kill me (not really). I was wondering if now as an adult or teen, do you think or consider your parents ideas or beliefs when you do something?

I am a 27 year old married woman with a 4 year old daughter. Have been married for the past 8 years. My husband led a double life with another woman and child (born to him days before he married me) for many years. I caught him red-handed, he then beg me for forgiveness and I took him back. But he has since then cheated on me several times, hasn't worked for months and we have lots of financial trouble because of him. He is however a good dad and does help me with the house chores.
My dilemma is that recently his sister's husband has starting to ring me and text me and I have started a relationship with him. We have till now only talked and have had no physical relationship. I tell him all my worries and that gives me peace of mind. But I am extremely nervous and feel guilty of doing such a thing. What should I do? Nip this in the bud or carry on have some excitement in my life?
