Family - April 2007

I'm really scared to admit it to my mother because she is so in love with my dad. My dad is always really annoyed of my mom, for the stupidest things. Then I found a few emails (when he was using my laptop) from a couple of women...and they were unrepeatable. My sister claims that the emails are probably spam, but I am not so sure. I never really trusted my dad because he is always away over the weekend while my mom is at work, and he makes me promise not to tell her. What should I do?

I don't know what to do. I'm 18 without a car, homeschooled and I'm the oldest. (I'm home alot and I don't want to be.) Most of my friends live about an hour and half away... It seems like every time I turn around Mom and I are fighting again. I plan on being home about 8 or so months more and I want to leave on good terms. I think that she is having a very hard time with me growing up (I'm also the only daughter) and the tension is coming to the surface as fights. I don't want it to be this way. I'm also not keen on confronting her about it. We are both very emotional and I don't know if it would be worth it to bring it up when I don't know what to say/do.. Please help!

My kids Grandma has just left me a voice message stating that she's going to see a solicitor for visitation rights. My children are 8 and 9 years and we don't want her in our lives for various reasons, she is a loose woman, selfish, greedy, lazy and manipulative. The children are better off without her as her morals and standards pretty much don't exist. We are in the UK, what rights could she have, I've looked around on-line and there are organizations but I want to know the legal stance. Any advice please?

My granddaughter used to refuse to walk instead of ride in a carriage while in Wal-Mart, and she would just lay flat, face-down in the middle of an aisle, with other customers staring and wondering what the hell happened to her!

I'm fat. I'm 5'10 and 260 pounds. I'm a big tall girl and also fat. I know i have to change things for my health... but my grandmother wants me to change because of my looks and how i look to people. She tells me my youth is wasted and im not going no where in life because im fat. My mother says the same things to me and she degrades me to them and tells my family all the negative things i do and never my accomplishments. she calls me out my name all the time.. says im never gonna progress in college.. and even when i wasnt that fat at all i use to be 180 pounds i still went through this. she put me through all hell. i really feel hate for them right now because it shouldnt be like this. but im tired and im ready to move out of my house and not see them again. i dont let them make me feel like a loser... but thats what they see me as. my grandmother told me i have no future because im FAT. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

I feel like to keep the peace in my household I have to tiptoe around and keep my mouth close so I won't offend anybody and their so delicate self-esteem. But when it comes to me they can say anything that comes to their minds. But let me say something like that or stand up for something I think is right or I feel comfortable doing and all of a sudden it’s wrong. I understand that I'm only 17 but, I don't ask anybody for anything because I have my own job And I don't need anybody to buy anything for me. Ever since I been up here I bought everything I have now except my cell phone and that was a birthday present from my aunt who is not even here

How old does a child have to be to stay home for about a half hour alone? I am going through some difficulties at my apartment complex with this one lady and she is stating that we don't take care of our child and that she is going to call defacts on us. The child is 8 years old she has her own cell phone and knows our numbers by heart. We are not that far away and she knows how to dial 911 in case of an emergency. She knows not to cook or to get into anything she gets out of school and takes the dog out and then goes in and does her homework.

Someone please help. I have looked online but I cannot find it. I know in New York the law states as long as the child can call 911 and its day time they can stay home for a couple hours, but being that i never had the problem here in GA until now, I have no ideal........

Help please the police couldnt help me, we called and pressed harrassment charges on this lady and the police told us not to worry but she is disrupting our lives.

My son has alot of anger issues, He throws things punches walls, kicks walls, screams at the top of his lungs, but only when he is at home. At school they can't say enough good things about him, but when he gets home if I put the wrong breakfast in front of him he starts screaming and slamming things. Timeouts don't work, he is to old and I really just want to beat him when he does this. I am losing my patience and my mind, any disipling ideas that might work to get him to stop? I have tried reasoning with him, taking things and priviladges away I just don't know anymore......

My father and step-mother would like my half-sisters to become good little Christian girls. They are 9 and 10 and they are required to go to church every Sunday and they have both been baptised.

I'm not a Christian although my parents tried to raise me that way and I believed it for a time. However, as I got older, I realized it didn't make any sense and I lost my belief in God.

As a person who doesn't believe in God, I worry about my sisters being influenced into Christianity by my parents who think its their duty to teach them their beliefs. I understand that parents have a right to train their children.

Is it wrong for me to offer an athiestic view to my sisters or should I go on allowing them to be told things that I believe are lies? I know it's ultimately their choice but I have an opportunity to influence them in another direction. Should I interfere with my parents teachings?

If I want something, They tell me to pay for it myself. I tell them I cant because I dont have a job and they tell me im not getting a job.
Im 13 turning 14 in about 6 months and where I live you can get a job as soon as you turn 13.
My parents have set up this thing where if I do something around the house I get money for it. But i find the prices are unfair. We have quite a large house and one of the rules are for $3 vacumn the whole house which takes me 2 hours. Things like that. Im not aloud to babysit or wash cars either. Im also a only child.
My parents expect me to earn at least $40 a month by the thing they made. I usually only make $15. I need to pay for my $30 a month cell phone bill, All my outtings, Anything fun I want to do..etc..
I know I could easily get a job. But they wont let me.
My friends parents told me it isnt up to my parents to decide whether I should get a job, Its up to the person who hires me.
Im not sure what to do.
Do you have any ideas?

for instance, this guy (a father and his son a police officer) he refuses to have anything to do with his father because he has a drinking problem. he tries to call up his son to talk about a hockey game and he just totally shuts him out.
what gives? isn't family suppose to be there for you no matter what? i think he is uncaring and should be more understanding..

My brother is eight years old, and the most annoying person I have met in my life. He is spoiled, has full-on tantrums when he doesn't get his way, spends at least three hours on his computer daily, playing runescape, and claps and whistles and screams some song (which he doesn't even get the tune right) randomly throughout the day continually. He refuses to SHUT THE HELL UP, no matter how much we ask him nicely, plead, beg and eventually yell at him to. I am getting sick and very tired, because every night he screams at my parents for at least half an hour, and I am in the room next to him, so I usually don't get as much sleep as I should. I am not exaggerating to make him sound worse, everything I just wrote is true. He starts a fight in with me in front of his friends (just to show off) and I refuse to do anything at first, and sit there as he starts tearing at my haor and scratching me, trying to get a reaction. And my father just doesn't punish him.

yesterday was horrible with my family, as usual. My mom and sister got in a fight and were hitting eachother, so bad my sister blew out my moms eardrum and now she can't hear out of one ear. then my mom called the police because my sister left the house and wouldnt come home.



now for today :
my mom has been crying nonstop and she says she can't take it anymore and that she hates living with us . I don't know what to do. So during school today, my sister( 17) apparently went to the social worker and stuff and now my mom has to meet with her tomorrow. I don't know what im supposed to do. I feel so helpless becuase i'm stuck in this situation and all i do is cry because i feel so bad for my mom. I don't know what to do. I just need some advice to help me get through all this disfunctional family stuff. =[
