Over 2 years ago, I rented a house with my bf. Not long after moving in I had a breakdown and went into serious depression, I have had problems with depression for years and it finally got on top of me.
I couldn't get out of bed each day, let alone earn a wage so we were really tight on cash. My Mum found out about it when she popped down one day and saw the state of me and the house.
She asked us if we wanted to live back with her and my Dad. After thinking about it, we moved back in but now it turns out that she only invited us back because she wants money from us paying her rent every month.
For years she has taken money off us, if I say no - she plays the guilt trip untill she gets more and we never get it back. On top of rent (which I don't mind paying), she has had thousands off us.
Now; we hate living here. They are always noisy & inconsiderate. What can we do? How can I stop myself from feeling guilty to move knowing she can't afford living without our rent??

I have a younger relative who USED to have a nice figure, & she always wore sexy clothes. (tight pants & dresses, short skirts, tube tops, etc..)

Now, after two children, she does not have that figure anymore. She is huge & out of proportion, however, she still wears the same kind of clothes, & it looks a mess.

Family members have told her that she shouldn't wear those types of clothes until she loses some weight, but she just ignores them, gets mad, and she might feel the same way if I say something to her. On the other hand, she has always looked up to me, so she MAY listen to me.

Every time I see her, I am embarrassed for her and myself. When she comes around my friends, or to bars that she knows I hang out at, people look at her in disgust, & they know she is my family. My friends think I should "school" her, but even though she is younger than me, she is still grown.

She needs to understand that she can look and feel sexy if she wear clothes that flatter her body

hey, im in highschool, things use to be great. striaght A's. hangout with bestfriends all the time. always smiling and laughing. now things seem to change. my grades are getting lower. my best friend doesnt hang out with me as much. im always sad. parents are always putting me down. telling me im a failure. things took a turn when the started putting me down. they started punishing me(hitting) and everytime they yell at me i cry easly. the only thing that makes me happy is my boyfriend, who they do not approve. but how can they not approve him without getting to know him. some times i feel like giving in to their words and give up on myself but my boyfriend said not to. some times i think without him life isnt worth it. i know i shouldnt give up, but it hurts when my parents stop believing in me. what should i do? they wont even listen to me. i just dont get it anymore..

A year ago she, who used to be a good girl, got jealous of her lil bro, disrespectful and did bad stuff like drinking and joining bad crowds. She apologized and showed regret but was grounded for a month and didn't rebel. When the grounding ended she told us she was very sad cause she felt we didn't trust her. We, especially me, were still upset and were extremely harsh, probaly a mistake. I ended up telling the girl maybe I would never trust her again, I was really harsh though she was in despair. She got depressed, her grades dropped, lost weight, quit sports. My mom tried to help, told me without accusing we 'd been cruel and suggested the girl spend some time with her. She accepted and mom gave her what she neded most, trust, and she's been with her for a year. She like started living again, resumed swimming, great greats, a brand new and wonderful girl. Incredible how she got mature in 1 year. But she doesnt want to come back home, now it's her who doesnt trust us, shes scared

He's old enough to be on his own, but we took time to teach him the values of getting an education, having security in life, planning for the future. He says he needs to "go for his dreams". He has no license or car, no money, is in a tiny town. I worry about his choice. How can I get myself over this worry and fear and disappointment?

I have this 17 yr old step-daughter and as a gift my husband wants to buy her a class ring, so we had her choose the style and what she wants on it, but we are on a budget and have 6 other children and have purchased the 10kt white gold instead of 14kt white gold a $130.00 difference, she is complaining and whining and says that it's our obligation to buy her what she wants and needs, because her father promised her. She been living with us for almost a 1 1/2 years because her mother moved to Texas and she wanted to stay and finish school, she has made us feel that we have to do it because her dad owes it to her.

I live in a rural community, in a decent house and a stay at home Mom.We are barely getting by ourselves.We have chainsmoking neighbors, dad on disability, mom cares for my grandma during the day,& 3school age children, one of which is my own son's friend.They live in a very run down mobile home, with junk all around it.They do not have gas service, so no hot water and twice this winter had no water, due to frozen pipes.The parents used to send the kids over here for toilet paper, a tea bag, sugar, etc.and now it's snowballing.They recently asked to use my camera to take pics of their daughter in a bridal show.They send at least one kid, almost every Sunday night to take a bath and last Sunday when it was my own toddlers bedtime I was cleaning mud off my floor from their kid taking a bath, plus they don't even send fresh clothes for him to put on after.I feel bad for them, but how do I cut it off w/o them hating us?PS I also needed to have the daughter babysit an afternoon in May, eek!

She is 40 and I'm 35. I only see her say every 5 years, but each time I do see her she'll say to me, "I remember when you were a little girl and all it used to be with you is you're either tired, hungry or cold". It really gets on my nerves. For goodness sake, it's years ago. I've never heard her say anything nice to me, it's always been negative. She's not nasty, but when she does say something, it's never a praise. She was even jealous of my playing with (when we were children) another male cousin and her face of disgust said it all then.

hello

i cannot afford solicitors fees but was wondering if you could point me in the right direction.

i am a tenant of thames valley housing (we are a family of 6) the housing association had been trying to evict our anti social and violent neighbours for some time , we were asked to write a nuisance diary also to film their daily activities . when the eviction hearing finally got to court thames valley asked if they could use our evidence as a family we were given no more than 48 hrs to decide after talking we decided to let thames valley use the evidence. this is when our problems started. we were moved out of our lovely home on feb 1 07 into a safe house which is not very nice i am disabled my 2 daughters have now missed 6 weeks from school!! (as it is not safe to go back to the area) my 2 sons are unable to get employment as we do not know when we will be moving to a permenant property. we are all very depressed.

anyway to cut a long story short our evidence secured the neighbours eviction thames valley have made us all these promises and all we have had from them so far is a pot plant to say thankyou.

could you please advice what our rights are etc.

thankyou very much

My sister her boyfriend and I live together. They ordered water costing $100.00 so they filled their tank and my tank. Their thank fell and burst and she is telling me to give her $50.00 to use the water in my tank which they paid for. The problem is she her boyfriend uses the water also they do construction with it and want me to pay half. I felt it unfair and asked her to re-negotiate. she got upset saying i was selfish and thinking low and they got the water at a discount and i should be glad to pay only $50.00. I am upset that she is trying to use me. It is the principle. I am being a b**** as she saids or is she the wrong one.
