Every time my brother and sister and I get into an argument, my Dad goes on a rampage screaming: "GO TO YOUR ROOMS AND SEPERATE!" He NEVER tries to solve the problem he doesnt say: "hat is the problem?" he just tells us to separate and that is that. Also, he says his life is to important to help solve our problems. What do you think?

Ok, mi mom and dad love each other to death, but sometimes they don't show it by the lilttle things that they do. They sit and argue for hours and don't reture the phone calls and staying out late(that's a biggy). Sometimes, when mi mom is fed up with how mi dad act, she threatens to leave. Many of time they have but they always come back. They fight right in front of me and mi brother and sometimes I can't handle it. I have no really close friends in mi area that I can come to, so I would cry in mi room. I love mi parents and I don't know how life would be without one of them around. So what can I do to make them stop fighting? I try to come to mi mom, and everytime I bring up that subject, she cry and I don't like to see her that way. Mi dad sometimes say don't worry about it and that it will get better, and it never do. Help me out yall, please. Any advice will help

My friend has a painful secret which is not her fault. She was child abused very very badly, emotionally, physically and was neglected. She cut off communications from her abusive parents. It's been many years now. She has a fear of intimacy because of her past. She does not allow herself to get close to people because she is ashamed of her past, she feels that getting close to people means sharing her past, present and future(correct), but she just won't open up. How can I help or has anyone been in her situation.

My daughter has danced since age 3. And has been on a competition dance team for the past 4 years. I wish she would hang with the girls she dances with rather then the girls that do nothing but get in trouble. She talks about quiting dance because her friends that are in trouble and do nothing are pressureing her to quit. it's like "loosers hate winners" Her mother is in rehab for drugs. I have custody of her. Anyway I know that the crowd you hang with is a big influence in what you do. I want her to choose her dance friends over her "looser" friends. PLEASE HELP

Justina was her name and she was the most precious person on this earth. I don't know why God chose her and this time in her life. I miss her terribly. I have a son, Justin who needs me and he is also having a terrible time dealing with this. We were very close. I am going back to work on the 28th of this month and I am very scared. I don't know if I am ready. I am down to 94lbs and don't think I am strong enough physically or mentally. I know I need to but then I am very scared. Justina and Justin are my life and always have been. With losing Justina I feel sometimes like I am going to die very soon. I don't want to because Justin needs me and I love him so very much, but my heart is broken into so many pieces I don't know how to fix it. The thought of going back to work is also going on with my life and I am having a hard time dealing with that. Going on without my daughter is heartbreaking. She was with me all the time, and now I am very lonely without her.

A very cherished relative who passed several years ago was not buried, but instead was cremated. We scattered the ashes in the ocean.

Now we would like a place similar to a graveyard where we could pay respects to her or put flowers at every so often, like a memorial. We thought about planting a tree or buying a spot of land. Any other ideas? Please, only serious ideas.

I am absolutely nuts. Every two or so months I have this hysterical crying fit where I just breakdown and dwell on everything thats wrong in my life. Its the weirdest thing to see, trust me! I have nothing to be unhappy about; but I still am. I recently got into a fight with my brother over his shoes, and he ended up locking his door. But I picked the lock, ran in and attacked him. Then my father came in and got me out of the room, not without me pushing him first. It is all such a blur, and the whole time I was yelling and crying! also have these terrible mood imgs from happy go lucky to deep and dark. I will just lie down and loathe mysel and my life! What is going on? Please help me!

My mother-in-law has hope that her son will change his controlling and abusive ways. I do not.

Why as a mother does she have hope and I do not? How can I convince her other than my actions that I do not want to get back together with her son?

I met him for a few days and he already has asked me cancel the car insurance on my car when its my car and not his concern. I am driving his car while I am here and he has asked me to pay for the registration. He also wanted me to change my cell phone plan to a family plan and I said No.

His behaviors are the same and she does not understand. I don't think that I will ever be able to explain it to her.

I divorced my ex-husband about 5 years ago. I live in another state. My ex-husband has now moved to another state. I left my job and came to take my daughter back with me.

However, my mother-in-law keeps telling me that I can not raise my child alone and that I will never be able find someone else if I want to get resettled.

I have decided to go back to the other state at the end of the month. I can not tell my mother-in-law because of her pushy nature.

I try to avoid her as much as possible. I don't like talking to her because she keeps pushing me to get back together with her son and I am not interested.

How should I deal with her though when she makes the remarks that are mean and hurtful?

What is the consensus everyone? 50/50? 60/40? 20/80? I see so many people who think God will take care of it 'all' and are surprised when nothing happens so tell me how much do you believe is up to you and how much is up to your type of 'God' ? Just curious

Recently, my husband and I travelled to Paris. His sister and niece had used our apartment while we were away. We have a spacious apartment and I thought it would be fine. We have an extra guest room, which I prepared the guest room for them before we left. However, I found out that they slept in our bed. I specifically asked him twice if they would prior to our trip, and I said it was okay if his niece wanted to. She is 10 years old. I also asked his mother and said it was okay if his niece slept there. I made my point very clear that I would not like it if his sister slept there. However, when I found out, he said there is nothing he can do about it.

I feel slightly violated and as if I have no say in the decision making process regarding our bedroom. I feel that our bedroom is a very private. We have ample space and felt that they could have slept in the guest room.

Am I being unreasonable?
