My brother yells at me, makes fun of me, ticks me off, does things because I told him not to, starts to do things I love and says he did it because he knew I would hate it, shows off, puts me down in front of people(like my friends), winks at me when mom tells him he can do something that she said I couldn't, hits me for no reason, says things about my acne in front of people because he knows I am self-concsious about it, says he wants to kill me, rips my artwork that I say I am proud of, steals my ideas and gets compliments, gets into things I like to make me mad (am I starting over?) and does little annoying things for no reason.

I don't like it. I'm eleven, and I know I'm sensetive. I cry about it sometimes. I don't like it. Not one bit. When I tell him to please stop, he won't. I tell mom and dad and they make him say sorry. I say its okay, but he still does it again and again. I don't like it at all. Please help because I'm running out of characters to work with? Please &thank

I think my mom is soooo weird.
My friends all love her cause shes always listening to our type of music. (like R & B, pop, hip-hop, etc) Shes always buying clothes in the teen sections. Always stealing your clothes and your CD's and your shoes. Always going to her jazzercise class. Jazzercising in the car when she hears "Sexy Back". Always wanting to hang out with my friends when my friends spend the night. It gets sooo annoying. I mean its cool at times but other times im like GAH!! 'could you leave me and my friends alone for like...5min!' Dont get me wrong..i have a wonderful relashionship with my mom....
She doesnt drink or smoke or party. Which i love about my mom. She sets a wonderful example....

But i was wondering how many moms are really like mine??!!??

My parents are always saying i spend way too much time in my room and not enough time downstairs. But the truth is everytime i try and go downstairs with them they are yelling at my little brothers about them not doing their homework, not eating what they made them for dinner, the list goes on! All i want is to go in my room and shut the door!
Do you think they should be mad at me because of that?

My mother in-law's birthday is next week and I don't know what to get her because she only likes designer stuff like Prada and Chanel, and she doesn't like second hand stuff.

I can't afford anything for her thats designer as were paying off our first house, and her own daughter even said she doesn't know what to get her anymore.

What should we do?

So, anyway it's been close to seven years.. I once was a promising engineering student at a top 15 college with a high GPA. At the end of my junior year my parent thought it in my best interest to return home and finish the degree from there. (I thought being a senior in college was a good thing?) As I was saying, the friction I was met with in my home enviornment caused me to drop out of school. I then spent my time working at my family's business. "If your not going to go to school, your going to work.." Uh.. what?! So, yeah, we're well off enough that I'm living comfortably. (comfortably enough to not qualify for grant to send me back to school anyway) Life is good at least. Then one day, my father informs me that he wants me to quit and get a job somewhere else. The next week he gives my brother a raise and promotion. Uhh... what?! I guess I'm not the favorite. When I ask to return to engineering school, he flatly says "I'm not paying for it". Is this some test or something? help

im 15 and have HUGE family problems. my parents are divorced and i have a step dad. my mom and step dad hate me and definitely dont mind me staying with my dad or whoever can take me, but my Dad lives an hour away and i cant switch schools this late into the semester, plus, i have no intention to ever switch schools. the teachers and friends i have made at the town ive lived in all my life are irreplacable.

i know it sounds like a stupid idea, but is moving in with my best friend an incredibly amount to ask...well, i know it. She lives in an enormous mansion and has 4 sisters, all gone off to college and no longer living there. i dunno why, but it seems as though im shy to ask...she is my best friend, but i kept all of these problems hidden from her...she would understand im sure, but i dunno...

its so much to ask...and her parents. would they be ok with that?! i have no idea!!!

PLEASE HELP!

I'v been thinking lately on how to cheat the U.S. post office and i think i figured out a way...........if you are trying to mail something but you dont have stamps, and you purposely write the address you want to send to as the return address......so when they see that you didnt put a stamp on it they will send it to the address you want to send to and you save a stamp............Has anyone tried this and will it work ?????????

I am taking care of a 14 year old girl that is in the hospital because of her parents abusing her. Right now I am like her mother(I'm in my 40's, I know her from family). For the past few days after she told CPS and a social worker about the abuse she has been REALLY clinging to me. I spend time with her 24/7, it's even hard for me to leave her for 5 seconds to go to the bathroom!!! Right now I'm sitting in her hospital bed with her, holding her hand while she sleeps and I get some work done from my computer. If I let go of her hand she will wake up immediatly and start crying and ask me if I'm leaving her. I would never do that to her and I lover her very much. I keep telling her that, I'm not sure of she belives me though. Is this noraml for her to be clinging to me so much? Also right now I sleep in her bed with her because she is scared because she gets bad dreams about her parents. But eventually I will end up adopting her and when she gets into a home I don't want this to be a...

My mom and dad have been split up since..well, as long as i can remember. Lately, I've been flying off the handle VERY easy (think about that when you respond) and the last time my dad and my step mom argued, I freaked. Now, again, I need to choose between my mom and my dad.

I've worked out the pros and cons of both families.
Dads-pros
-Get to stay at the school i'm at.
-I can continue working at Timmies
-stay with friends, and I'm in the city, so i wouldn't be bored.
CONS
-Arguing..and with the new baby on the way, stress is developing.
MOMS-pros
-No arguements
-I'd get to see my old friends
-my cat could come out as well :)
CONS
-In the country, and it's really boring out there.
-My relationship between me and my mom and step dad etc is not as it should be.
-I'd have to stop working.
-New school. Switching in the middle of grade 9 is a mess...

I've talked to my parents, my friends, even my English teacher.... I really dont know what i should do....Any help??

I'm currently a stay-at-home wife, while I wait for a greencard after a recent move from Canada to the USA. My husband is out working all day, and I like to keep busy at home, so that he does not feel that I don't appreciate what he does, and that I simply waste my time around the apartment.

What are some creative ways that you show your husband you've been thinking about him during the day? Things that show you love him when he gets home?

Our 2 sons married the most controlling women on earth. Why? I'm not controlling as their Mother. My Husband isn't. What is wrong with young women today? They are so rude, controlling and mean. They boss our sons around like you wouldn't believe. It's hard to sit there and watch as one wife looks at our son with this hateful look, he asks what he did wrong and she doesn't answer. She just waits a few minutes and acts like nothing is wrong. He, in the meantime, is running around trying to get her approval. What the heck?

My bf always gives his little boy his way and it's driving us crazy! The little boy has a half-brother, who lives with his mom in another state, so he was basically an only child. That is, until I moved in. I have 3 teenagers who chose to live with their dad through the week so they wouldn't have to change schools. My kids have noticed how spoiled my this child is, and they just stand and shake their heads. There haven't been any big blow ups, but I see one coming if something doesn't change. I know my kids have felt a little slighted at times because my bf's little boy (I feel like I'm his parent too, especially since his mom isn't around much at all) has a lot more material things than they do (most of which he had before we came into the picture), plus I spend a lot more time with him than I do with them because they don't live with me. I love my bf and his son, and they love me and my kids, so that isn't an issue... just want to un-spoil this child!!
