Family - February 2007

I have been with my husband alomost 11yrs. we have childern from previous relationships. my 12 yr. likes to think she is the boss. She has a pair of clog shoes in which her step-dad feels is not right for winter even though her feet are covered 100% from socks even though he said not to wear them because it was winter I gave them to her behind his back, I was dropping her off at the highschool to watch volleyball games and not walking, there was no snow on the ground he went into a rage!! But yet his son goes out with torn jeans and a t-shirt and has been sick 2 times already missed school as my daugher is no saint but not sick, why is it ok for the boy to goe out half dressed and wet hair but the girl cant wear clogs?? He thinks its all me and throws things and tells me I am a bad mother for allowing this and no brainer but again his son goes out walking in torn jeans and a wet head?? Is it me or is he right?? What is good for one is good for the other?? Please help?

It seems like every word that comes out of thier mouth is just putting people down, they never seem happy and they just argue non stop about everything even if they have nothing to argue about they try to put words in your mouth or bring up something that happen 10 years ago to argue about, Ugh what makes this tough is its a family member so when I try to talk to them about it they tell me to just shut up. whats the best way to deal with this person?

I like to wear black clothes because in them I feel beautifull safe and protected, I know it sounds weird, but that's just the way I feel, the problem is people won't accept me this way, not even my mom, she's always telling me I look goth and saying goth is demonic.Now she has forbidden me to wear black anymore,I feel so unconfortable like this, I don't even feel like myself anymore...

What should I do??

Ok I was at this party. And my dad decides he doesnt want to see me any more. We were so close he was like my best friend and I love him. I was so upset that he didnt want to see any more. I had a little brother down at his house. And now I never get to see him again. I miss him so much. I had a step mom and i dont get to see them any more. I miss them so much. I dont really have a dad now. But my step dad adopted me and I just dont have any feelings toward him. I dislike him so very much. I miss them all so much. A big part of me is missing like half of my heart there is a big whole there. They were giving me my own bed room, cause i had to share one with my sister and they were giving me the only room in the base ment. I just dont know what to do. Thanks for your time.

my mom was an abusive person all her life and continue to do so, i've cut all ties with her for 1 year and my life was so much happier! i really love my aunty (mom's younger sister) and she was a wonderful lady, i want to keep in contact with her, sharing my life but i really don't want my mom to find out (the less she knows the better), but my aunty and my mom talks on the phone every week because my mom is looking after her daughter (my cousin lives in the same country as me), i've told my aunty to not repeat anything i said to my mom but somehow my instinct tell me she will, my aunty said she will not say anything (with a seak voice) should i continue confide in her?

My friends are always telling me I look gloomy and saying I should wear more colors,and even the mother of one of my friends told him he couldn't go anywhere with me because of the way I was dressed.

What should I do??

Should I pretend to be someone I'm not just for people to accept me??

How do I tell my mom goth is what I am and it won't stop me from being a good christian??

I am an adult living at home with my mom while finishing my law degree. I have a bother who is 20 at home. About 2 years ago my dad had an affair and left my mom. HIs lying, deceit, and betrayal was certainly was the opposite of my honest and loving mother.

Since then my mom has tried dating with not a lot of success. She has made a lot of friends though and looks great. However, she tells us she wants to date and she wants to try different methods (eharmony, a matchmaker, singles club). Both my brother and I are supportive. This weekend we found out (we had our suspicions) that she is dating a married (possibly separated man) for months. The way we found out was not great and required some snooping. Our question is how do we confront our mother who has been lying for months? How can she lie to our face that she was away with her friends when we know she was with him? Can we do this without destroying what is left of our family? I am a Christian who values honesty and family.

What do you do when an in-law hates you and you have never even been around them to speak of and when you do run in to them the dirty looks scare you.

My father died suddenly yesterday. He is a vet and he recieved disability checks. He had no life insurance I have no family that is going to help me with the funeral expenses. I think that he is elegable for va burial assistance, but I am just wondering who do I contact first and how do I go about starting the planning? Do I start calling to va and ss first? Or do I first start trying to locate a funeral home and explain to them my financial limits? Any sincere help would be deeply appreciated.

I am hosting my family's 46th reunion in Chicago this year. I need a rhyming slogan for the theme. Someone suggested "Gettin Down in Chi-town" but I am not too hot on it.

Any ideas? Help!

I have been crying my eyes out for the last hour. I'm at the end of my rope, I feel like crap, I'm falling apart. I'm 18 years old and I have a 16 years old sister. We have never really got along, and therefore never really developed a relationship all these years. She always tells me that I'm never there for her and I don't do my part. She says that I'm controlling and I've damaged her.
Come on i'm the oldest, older siblings tend to be more that way, but we're talking about the past here and i've apologized for anything that I did that was not right. I've even changed. I've never really been able to relate with her though because she is the real disrespectful type, doesn't want to grow up, acts like a 12 year old instead of a 16 year old. I've always found it hard to relate with her. I've done my best though. The bad thing is that she has replaced me with someone else who she thinks is more like a sister and she doesn't want to go to her parents or me anymore. What do I do?

ok so i in summer 2005, i got caught making out with my boyfriend by my dad (who didnt know that we were going out) so he told me that i could never talk to him or see him again, but i did anyway because i love him, so then he gave me permission to talk to him again after a year, but then he took it back when he found out that i had spent 350 dollars talking to him on my cell phone, but yet again, i still kept talking to him. So now me and my boyfriend are secretly calling eachother and txting eachother when ever we can and the only people that know about it are my sister and my mom (who is ok with me and my boyfriend). So i wrote a letter to my dad like two weeks ago explaining myself and apoligizing for everything i had done and asking him for permission to let me talk to my boyfriend again. Its been two weeks and i know that he has read it, but he is choosing not to say a word about it and pretend it didnt happen. That makes me mad! What do I do????
