My father and stepmother have been married since 2001, been dating since 1997. We have had a tentative agreement of I don't push her buttons, she doesn't push mine. But lately her behavior is getting worse and worse, and she's been acting very passive-aggressively and putting my father in the middle.

My father is having hip and spine surgery in less than a month, and she wants to make sure I don't "take charge", whatever that means, of my father's health. As his daughter, of COURSE I'm going to step up and do something. But she's such a control freak, she doesn't want me involved.

I feel sorry for my father, as he's put in the middle of all of this, and my stepmother won't speak directly to me, only through him. How in the world do I handle this woman??

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks!

I am a 23 yrs old mother of a 2 yr old. My mom and I have had problems since I was 15yrs old. When she slept with my boyfriend. She was married with 3 kids she told me I stoled her BF from her. We have had problems ever since. We will go months without speaking. This last time she accused me of something I didn't do and saud alot of hurtful things about me to my husband and he cut the contact off with her. I had a child that was murdered and she told my husband if he left my other daughter would be dead in a month. Because she claims I sleep all the time. But yet she never came around to know that. It always starts withone thing and leads to others. She won't talk about things like what happened with my boyfriend she acts like these things never happened. What do I do? Just keep contact cut off? PLEASE HELP she makes it seem like its all me

calling me at work?

My parents relentlessly call me at work. I've told them nicely to stop, but they don't.

If I tell them my number has changed to a number that is long distance call for them, (we use work cell phones, and some people change area codes to make it more convienient for clients to call), do you think they will call less?

I'm talking excessive calling over nothing important. In dire emergency, they can call me on my personal cell.. but no, they keep calling me on work cell and I'm around co-workers all day .... sometimes my co-workers think I'm getting prank calls since it rings so much!

Why are so many girls under 18 getting pregnant nowaday and have a loser boyfriend who is 3 to 5 years older than them?

I'm 23 and I have few sources of income, I make a bit more than average people. Yet I still haven't even start to think about buy a house and I shudder at the thought of having a child. Also I remeber in high school I and my friends have sorta of a phobia of having children at a such young age.

I'm still scratching my head as I try to figure out how could having a baby and a boyfriend who have criminal record and low paying career being a such great thing. What's the explaination for this?

He was in the military and stationed at Fort Bragg, in 1977. I know his last name and his rank. I only have a possible first name, though it could be a nickname. He may not be alive, but I would like to find my half sisters all 4 of them. They may not know that I exist. Back in '77 they lived in the New York area. I am getting married in 8 months and hope they can be there.

it seem life everyday when I go into work the owner/ who is a recovering alcoholic if that makes any difference is changind what he wants me to do. There are several of us that work there and most of them have been there for a while but there is one woman who is part time and she is making it hard on everyone because she complains that she can't get her job done without my help. Which means I do my job and hers also that is why the owner keeps changing my job. I am to the point I am ready to say screw you and leave. I have never done that and have been in the work force for 20 years but I have never experienced such undecisive people in my life. I don't think they could make a decision if it was staring them in the face. Yesterday when I went to work and they told me of yet another change I let it be known that I was not happy so instead of being adults they avoided talking to me. How do you handle childish people in the work place

Now more then ever before, grown adults are finding it harder and harder to leave the nest. Is this a result of the higher cost of living or just mere laziness. or is it something else? 50 years ago this would be unheard of, but now we just shrug our shoulders and accept it, why?

My husband had a very abusive father almost killed him and his mom by pushing them both of a moving car, my husband rolled under the tires and almost died and also had a baby brother that died when he was just 5 months or so for an unknown cause i think it might of been the father but nobody knows, the father was a beater, alcoholic ect...My husband's mother left him finally when my husband was 4 years old or so and remarried a wonderful guy...My husband was raised by his mom and her husband..He thinks of him as his real dad and all..When we get in a fight we has a habit of grabbing my arms and squeezing me but would never hit me however he thinks he is going to end up just like his real dad and become a alcoholic and a beater, he is the sweetest most caring person i have ever met why would he feel this way??He did not grow up around his real father but by a wonderful man that is also sweet and caring, he couldn't end up like his father if he didnt grow up around it right???

You had a mother in law that seems to *never* pay attention to you when you try to explain something...
You had told her that you didn't want your 9 month old baby eating sugary things because you were told by your DOCTOR that this will make the baby "hyper"...
Your husband knew about this...
Your husband takes the baby to a Smoothie shop, you called your husband, overheard someboby talking about "ice cream", asked your hubby: "Is th baby eating ice cream?" and he said "No"...
When hubby and baby came back, baby would NOT go to sleep and you couldn't figure out WHY...
Days later you learn that, indeed, your mother in law fed the baby ice cream that night, causing baby to stay up til 11:30 pm...
What would you do?....
