One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said. "Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.

Now what do I do?

My parents have been awful ever since they found out i'm pregnant. I've never had the best relationship with them but they're going out of their way to be nasty now. They show no support and constantly tell my fiance and I that we'll fail at being parents, when they have nothing to support this claim! It's a shame bacause as much as my fiance tells me to forget seeking their approval, I can't help jumping to their defence as they are my parents and I feel loyal. It's kinda sad :( x

My mom is always on me about something. Either my homework isn't done, my room isn't clean, my hair is tangled. How can I tell her to just back off. I can't take it anymore! I have tried to tell her that if she wasn't always on me, then I would actually do it. But, she doesn't listen. What should I do?

I'm married to a wonderful man in the US military. I'm in the UK. I'm planning on joining him soon with my children (who are 15 and 12) from a previous marriage. I've already got the hurdle of fighting him in court over this. My lawyer said there shouldn't be too much of a problem as they say they want to move with me and start a new life over there and the courts listen to children nowadays. They see him every now and then for 2 hrs on a Sunday.

Now I have another problem, MY MUM. I know she's going to be heartbroken when we move. When we go out to see my hubby we speak to my parents on webcam so she can see my children. The problem is she's questioning them all of the time about are we moving? would they move? Every day this week she's been on at them. I find it hard to speak to my mum to be honest as she makes me feel like I'm a kid, stupid I know. What's the best way of going about it without me blowing my top.

I have heard the arguments - especially the religious ones - that we are responsible for our fathers transgressions/sins/misdeeds.
I understand that these actions can have repercussions on you.
But do you feel responsible?

I met this guy back in Nov. and within days I met his kid. Not long after that he introduced me to the baby's mother (they had never been married)and for the most part she was really nice to me. But then she started started callin at odd hours tryin to cry on his shoulder because her boyfriend left her or because her friend moved far away. I told my b/f that if our relationship was to grow that that crap had to stop, and it did. By Jan. we got our own place, the ex was still being nice to my face. But then she started saying (behind my back) that she didn't trust me with her baby (because I don't have a baby, therefore I don't know how to take care of one) and if my b/f left his kid alone with me that she would take him away. And all this from the girl who takes an infant to a bar! My b/f doesn't want to tell her to **** off because she has relatives working for the state. She is making me feel like I'm in a dead end situation. Anyones opinion would be welcome.

he is adopted from russia and has been with her since he was 4 months but he is on a pedastal. He never gets in trouble, hits my 8 month old and when i yell at him for it I get yelled at. He has never been spanked on the bum or on the hand. She does not scold him. her oldest son(my fiance) has recently told me that she will not because she does not want to be one of those moms who scold him for everything and that she doesn't like scolding him because he is not her own. I am going nuts she needs to understand that he cannot hit a 8 month old, her excuse is he doesn't know yet.... She is crazy, How can i let her know that I will not stand for the way he treats my daughter wothout hurting her feelings!

My son was born out of wedlock we moved out of Fl when he was 3mos old I kept him until he was a year old His father never visited or paid anything towards him and I was struggling so I allowed him to stay with his dad in Fl through a written agreement he stayed there for 8 months.When my son was in Fl he was living with his Father in his Fathers mothers house she mostly took care of my son. I went down to Fl to pick my son up from his father which he voluntarily gave him back to me about a month ago.Then my sons fathers mother was upset about it and is using her son to try to take him back by making false allegations against me to prove I`m unfit and to take him back to Florida.I`ve already answered one of there motions which was for an exparte emergency pick up order and the judge down there dismissed their motion,but he is still filing other motions and I cant afford to keep a lawyer and continue fighting.How does Florida even have Jurisdiction if he is up here in Tennessee with me

i have an older sister who lacks common sence and my mom always forces me to hang out with her, but i don't want to. I always have to act like the older one. And i always have to do everything for her. Don't get me wrong she is not special ed or anything like that, just real slow. i hate it, i just wish i had a sister i can talk to and look up to, but instead it is the other way around. and i am embarrasse of the way she acts and dresses. So, i question myself is it bad not to want to hang out with her? and be uncomfortable to hang out with her?

We are a very religious family. My dad is a minister and we know that being gay is not acceptable to God. Our parents love us 4 children so much and we have always been very close to each other. But last year, my sister (23) told my parents that she is lesbian. I came and visited my parents for the holiday (I am the oldest child) and I saw what this situation did to our family. My dad does not say anything, but I can see his heart is broken. My mom talks to me every night and I have never seen her like this before. Her eyes are swollen, because of all the crying. They love their child, but they LOVE GOD and being gay is wrong! What can I do? What should we do? It feels like our family is falling apart. Please help!

My mom allows me to have my boyfriend over when no one is home, but it really seems to bother my sister. I don't have sex with my boyfriends, and I am not planning on it. How do I let her know that she has nothing to be worried about?

dad and step-mom. My daughter had to tell me and she had to tell her coaches at school because she had to quit participating in sports. It seems to me she is the only one with any consequences. I gave them an ultimatum, if they don't tell his parents by this weekend, I will. Am I wrong?????

Is a hospital required to alert a child protective service if a parent, who by the way was also recently arrested for child abuse and avoided trial by pre-trial diversion/intervention in December, attempted suicide? Clearly this person is very unstable.

My brother is dating a gal who has 2 kids. I've seen situations like this before where the couple breaks up and the kids are the real losers because they lose the "family" that they thought they had. So for that reason, I told my brother that I didn't want the kids to call me "aunt" until / unless my brother and his girlfriend got married. He's ok with that.

Recently, a friend's 3 year old daughter has started calling me "auntie." I don't mind this, since there isn't any confusion about whether or not I'm family - it's more of a "this is what I call mommy's friend" thing.

So far so good, except for one thing - all these people know each other, including all the kids.

Now I'm wondering if I've set a double standard. *I* see a difference, but I know it's not clear from a kid's point of view. Should I nix "auntie" all together? I'm just not comfortable with my brother's girlfriend's kids calling me "aunt," but I don't want to be unfair, either.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I am a 24 year old woman who still lives at home. I have no college education or job and only $300 in savings. My mother uses me as an on-call babysitter for younger siblings. My whole family is verbally and mentally abusive to me. I am currently trying to get into college but am having no luck because I did not take 2 years of a foreign langue in high school. I can not help but felling hopeless.
