Family - March 2007

My dad, who I never knew, died a few days ago and I barely found out today that he did.

I'm a foster kid and my mom died when I was 5. It was hard, but I was 5 and really didn't understand.

I never knew my dad, I met him like 2 times when I was 3 (fyi that was 12 years ago!). I didn't know him, all I knew was that his named was Jason P. Scott and he was black and I look like him.

What I wanna ask is, should I be sad? I mean, he was my dad ( I have a father figure in my life whom I call dad). I feel that I should be sad, but should I really? Should I cry (did a little) feel sad? happy?

Thing that sucks is that I was told by Department of Child Support Services of Santa Clara (they were trying to find him so he could pay child support) and the letter said:

THE NON CUSTODIAL PARENT HAS DIED.....blah blah blah...and when I read it...my heart skipped a beat. He's dead....

I am 17, my baby's daddy is 21 and the baby is 6 months. I know I can move out, but I don't know what to do so I am not considered a runaway. How do I get consent? Also, would making the dad my legal guardian an option?

if the questions are so stupid, then why do people feel the need to put any type of answer to it?

or a broom. At first I was the one at home. Now I'm working 8 in a half hours a day. I try to give little hints, but he's either ignoring them or just doesn't want to do it. Don't get me wrong he works ten hour days and goes to school at night. I don't want to feel like I'm nagging but its getting om my nerves. When he cooks he leaves a big mess. It feels like I'm raising 4 kids instead of three. Oh I forgot to add he does wash clothes maybe twice a month.

I know I complain a lot. Sorry about that. But my teacher found out I cut myself so he told the consuler who told my mom and dad. Now my parents think I want attention from them which I don't. I told the consuler that my mom is too busy with art and my dad doesn't get home until 9 most nights so she thinks I don't get enough attention at home. Now my mom is taking me to the movies tomorrow and my dad is coming into my room saying "I never get to spend time with you. I'm not home long enough."


How could I fix everything?
How can I make it so my parents will leave me alone and not feel bad for ignoring me?

Sorry to keep repeating this question, but no one answering.

I have never had a roomie of the opposite sex and we are close friends. When we first discussed moving in together he laughed and said something like "You'll probably end up seeing me naked alot" and I think i replied with "It's ok, i'm sure you'll see me also.". Anyway, after about 2 weeks I would see him every once in awhile nude going from his room to the shower or I would come home and see him nude in the kitchen getting a drink or something and he would act like it's no big deal. He started watching tv and stuff nude. I have gathered that he is a home nudist and I am ok with that. Lately I have come in and seen him masturbating either while watching tv or on his bed.
My question is this. I'm not sure what to think of this since i've never been in this situation. It doesn't seem to bug him at all. And it doesnt bother me.
Is this normal for a guy to not be shy about this stuff?
Should I stay in my room until he is done

answer me, why do u rebel against ur parents when they are the ones who give u money, the ones to give you YOUR LIFE to even make a rebellious stand.... why do u rebel against them when they are the ones who pray for you, worry for u, cry for u secretly and love u the most?

i was once a rebel by the way.hope u all will rethink about this. don't matter ur emotions.

I'm not a bad person, but I feel he thinks I am...the father of my child. I just want to talk but I've only spoken to his gf. She says he doesn't want anything to do with us, my son and I. Need advice. Should I go after him for child support or wait for him to come around? So complicated. My son is 2 years old and well I fear he may decide to come after him. How does sole custody work?

They are very good people and a great family and are also able and willing to prove all of this. Is me moving out there even possible? I want to be apart of their family and they want to help me. I am 16, do i have any sayso in where i go?

This is a move made in like 1995. Its about a hispanic family living in east LA i think. any way there is a mom dad older daughter around 16 and a son about 10. the parents appear to be in gangs. In one scence the father is beating the mother and the son runs to the sisters bed room for comfort. Then later during one party the girl come down for a drink of water and the father gets mad and tells her to go. Before she leaves she kissed one of her fathers friend on the cheack. later that night the man comes in and rapes her. Cause of this the girl hangs herself on a tree in the back yard. because of this the mother gets her son and her daughters friend(who might have turned out to be her boy friend) any ways they drive off and the father is yelling and chasing them down the drive way.
Does anyone know the name of this movie.

I was snooping around my little sister's facebook and found pictures of her drunk and drinking out vodka bottles, I am really concerned about this b/c she is only 16 yrs old! It's not just that she's drinking that bothers me, but our father is a recovering alcoholic and I just don't want to see her go down that road. Should I rat her out to my mom or would that make me a terrible sister?

The other day a woman showed at my bf's parents house with two kids ages 12 and 14 and said he was the father even though 12 and 14 years ago when they were born she said they weren't and one of the kids looks just like my bf. He is so mad at her for lying and keeping this from him. What would you do in this situation.

Let me share to you a bad news. My father-in-law just died today of heart attack. This morning , I received a sms saying asking for money since he was rushed to the hospital. I had no extra money and I declined . There were instances where they had asked me to lend money to them but I always declined since I felt that it was not my obligation and I had to save too. I earn more than my husband and I end up paying the bills in the family. When he was jobless, I had to support my husband as well. But when my husband's father died, I felt guilty and feel ashamed to attend the wake or the funeral. Do I really need to feel guilty? I also feel bad that I am working right now instead of being with my husband at his time of grieve?Am I Bad?

My mother was so dependent on me growing up and into my 20s and I so close with her, that if she got sick, I got sick. All of the women in my family have been sexually abused, married jerks, and all have some sort of depression and eating disorder. I am the only one who got out of the cycle (therapy, healthy eating, spirituality, etc.). How do I still be honorable to my mother but not make myself sick again in the process. Btw, she is big into guilt trips, button-pressing, and using any manipulation she can. She's only in her 50s and she now has way more money than I do. Still, she wants me back in her clutches.I don't feel it's right to totally stay away from her. She is my mother.

I am 19 weeks pregnant and I am 18 years old. I still live at home with my parents and they rarely ever get along. They drink too much and they end up arguing. When I say "arguing", I mean hardcore at-the-top-of-their-lungs screaming, yelling, bringing up the past, and all kinds of crap. I am completely stressed out right now to the point that it's all turning into complete anger. I keep invisioning myself going out there and throwing something at them to get them to shut up. I've told them and asked them repeatedly to go somewhere else or keep it down. They say ok and then it starts over again. I am going to be living here when my child is born and I cannot and will not put up with this any longer. My child will not be in this environment. They have refused marriage counseling, seperation, divorce, and even alcoholics anonymous despite numerous offers. What do I do? I have no job and I am not stable enough to live on my own. Please help. I am desperate.
