My freshman year in high school, my school was offering free driver's ed. classes after school, so I signed up for it, figuring it would be a good idea to save on insurance later. Well, my parents were mad at me about something at the time (they always seemed to be mad at me, they were physically and verbally abusive), and decided after I went to the first day of driver's ed. that they would no longer allow me to go. I think this was because my mom didn't want to pick me up every day, which is a really stupid reason. Then, they told me that they weren't gonna allow me to start driving until I was 18, which basically meant that I would not be able to have a life or get a job before that point (my mom was too lazy to drive me anywhere). Why do you think they used such terrible judgement? They were horrible parents, but why would they intentionally try to ruin my life? Thankfully, I ran away when I was 15 and went to live with my grandparents, and got my license on my 17th birthday.

this is a BIG misconception about money and i do not think that money is the route of all evil , it is the LACK of $ that is the route off all evil. for instance, countries that have a high crime rate is the cause of lack of employment means no job, then idle time then hopelessness then people feel frustrated over the system and do bad stuff. wealthy people do not really have time for those stuff, even if they do it is minority. as a matter of fact money has no value until u place value on it, therefore it is what u do with $.
i know i kinda answer my own question for those of you who agree with me, but i would love to here your views!
it is ok to disagree!, thanks

What is/was your reaction, when your son/daughter/family member tells you that he/she is gay/lesbian? Calm, shock or you know it is coming? I would like to know in your point of view, thanks.

It seems like ever since we had kids, we have watched TV less and less. I'm not complaining b/c there's nothing on anyway worth watching. We don't have cable or satelite either. There is so much more I could be doing (cleanup, read to the kids, play family games, etc.). I think all I watch these days is cartoon DVD sets I buy for the kids. Our kids love the Flintstones, Jetsons, Lost in Space, etc.
What does everybody think? What is something good on TV? Anything?

Ok it is pity party time. I am the youngest of four the only girl in my family. I am always discounted. I am married and have a child. My husband does not discount me but the rest of the family does. Is there anything that I should do to let them know I should not be discounted?

I am constantly left out of important family discussions. For example, when I was 18 my grandmother in the hospital for 3 months I was unaware then 3 days before she died my aunt told me she was dying. I was living with my mother at the time I was still in high school. That is just the least of the times I have been left out of family things. Please keep in mind that was many years ago and nothing really has changed. Any suggestions? Please help.

BTW we have had to move in with my mother to help her she has a spinal dieses and moving out at this point is not an option.

Training for one specific sport. She gets up at 6AM to practise before shcool and is in bed by 8PM every single night. No deviations. She is not allowed to attend birthday parties, sleepovers, or other activities. Every single spare moment she has, aside from 1-2 hours per night for homework (which he surpervises) are spent in training. He also closely monitors her diet and body fat percentage. The saddest thing is, she's not that good. She almost always comes in last. He often talks about how disappointing her performance is.

Personally, I think it's child abuse. Unfortunately, the authorities disagreed with me. And I'm glad it's not my kid.

I had an argument with a family member and I guess my point to him was to let him know he could not say what ever mean or ignoant thing he wants to to me. He pretty much gets away with it with everyone else but I had enough and I made sure he knew it in no uncertain terms. He didn't like it one bit, but to bad.

I found a way to get her to talk to me. When we were growing up we always ate tomato soup and maccaroni noodles. So I surprised her when she got home the other day, she couldn't resist. We sat, ate and talked. I explained how shrewd it was for me to have those few drinks and not call for a ride. She understood but was still upset. We pinky swore that it wouldn't happen again. Then she let it all come out. She started rambling about when her and her friend were out shopping in the city and while walking in between stores she saw this man with horrifying deformities, it seemed as if though it pained him to walk. She said she broke down right there. She said that she felt so guilty for having the luxury of walking store to store while this man suffers just to go wherever this man had to go. She wanted to help him somehow but knew that she couldn't, and it reminded her of mom and dad, and how she couldn't help them either. She ran to her room after that, and hasn't talked to me since.

First of all, I know theres probably worser off people out there than me but just hear me out and let me know what you think. All my life theres been nasty people around trying to make things tough for me and my dad. My mom went to blackpool and got engaged to another bloke while still married to my dad. She then burns all our stuff and runs of with her fancy man to get married. She disappears for 10 years, comes back to say hello for 10 minutes and now shes living miles away and has currently married another 3 blokes since she walked out on us. But theres always been my brothers and their girlfriends to make things tough too. My brother would rob off me to feed his alchoholic cigarette munching girlfriends needs and just hurl abuse at me. They still do but I just ignore it all. And my half brother came in drunk and set about my dad. Broke the bones in his hand, kicked all his head and kicked some teeth out. Now theyve all joined together into one big hate club constantly plotting.

The pros - i have freinds (not a total loser or geek on the computer)
Cons-
When your best freind took your ex girlfreind.
When you same best freind owes you 50$ and he doesnt have the money to give back even after 3 months.
When you find out your mom favors your youngest daughter and your dad favors the older daughter and you are left in a shallow hole?
When this girl you dont like threatens to kill herself if i dont love her back? (she carved my name into her arm...)
When your grades have been at a standoff and will only decrease?
When its 9 o clock at night and i need to study 3 vocab lists and do 3 hours make up work?

I am not suicidal...i just want some comfort...

Here's my problem..... I am no longer with my daughters father, and he hasn't really been helping me to support our child. Especially knowing that I didn't have a job. As of last week Monday I just started working. Anyways, his way of helping me out is buying a case of diapers and giving me $20-$30 every 16th and 31st. Well, it makes it even worse because I live on my own (through section 8) and I have no way of paying my bills. He tells me that he can't give me much because he's gotta pay for his car or he's gotta pay his family and his girlfriend back cause they paid for his car. He's a bus driver for a tour company and he makes $7.50 an hour. We haven't been together since last year in November. Everyone's advicing me to take him to child support but I'm tryin' not to stress him out or
put him through so much. But it's hurting me as well. being broke and not being able to buy my daughter the things she needs. PLEASE HELP ME............ I need advice.........

My mom has been really mad because her dad is on his death bed. She gets mad sometimes and I think its because she knows her dad is going to leave and she has no control. So she gets these moods and yells, calls me my dad and sister names. She is also starting to hit which is totally not like her. What can I do to calm her down?

Ok well my son's father and I broke up about about 3yrs ago,and he ended up getting my son.Now we are just trying to stay friends for the sake of our son.I love my son to death and would do anything for him,the problem is that his father I think is trying to get me back.I'm not sure I want him back but I feel Iike I should so I can be with my son everyday.The other thing is that he and I just wasn't a good mix,we always said we hated each other,and that we are only still talking because of our son,but now I think he had a change of heart,but I didn't and i just don't want him to find out that I'm only with him to be closer to my son.Am I wrong for doing that?I know what I feel but I just feel I need a second opinion.thanks

When my birth mother was pregnant with me,my birth father had died.They were both very young and I do understand her reason for giving me up.
When I was adopted at birth I was adopted by my birth mom's cousins.My whole life I pretty much thought she was my cousin but here to come and find out she was my real mother.
Do you think she should have raised me or given me up for adoption?
I'm just so confused with my life sometimes.

My dad is a very nice person, BUT he is always stressed, So this means that he is in a bad mood, ALWAYS!! When he is in a bad mood (or even whenever!!!) he starts insulting whatever tiny mistake you make or like when you didn't hear him when he called you he gets mad at you, really mad!! he is a verbal abuser, very, and he's always insulting my brother and I. He's not one of those people who you can just sit down with and talk about this problem. I love him, but when these things happen, not only do they make me cry, but it makes me feel like I hate him... I am just 13 years old, and feel like those were the most depressing years with my dad. We always have to be watching out for his mood and our mistakes. What can I do?

I am 15 years old. This is a long story, but I'll give you the condensed version. Last week, I was in my mom's room saying goodnight to her. My dad came in. I don't remember what happened exactly, but he said something to me and I ignored him (I don't speak to him because of previous incidents like this). He got angry, and I said something back. Then he yelled at me to get out of the room. I said it was my moms room too, and I would stay there if I wanted to. Then he got up and tried to literally push me out of the room. I resisted, because I am NOT the kind of person who lets others push me around. This is the second time he's tried to push me. I haven't spoken to him since. I hate him so much, I can't really express it in words. I know that sounds dramatic, but it's totally true. My mom doesn't defend me when he gets out of control, so I feel like I can't trust her either! What do I do?
