Family - July 2007

My 19yr old son lives w/ my ex, but has been staying w/ me because of escalated arguments w/ his dad. He's getting his own apt on Monday & his dad will not let him come get anything from his room!! Including his own clothes!! My son said he would bring a police escort or go when the dad is not home. His dad has taken his key & said he will not be able to get in the house when he is gone & the police can't do anything because they are not his things. We have called the police & they didn't really give a straight answer! Just like "surely he'll let you take your clothes?" is all they really said? His dad has threatened if he comes there will be a "fight!!!" So wondering, wouldn't the clothes & everything else be considered my sons, since they were "given" to him? Just trying to help my son get his stuff & get the heck outta there the calmest, best way possible!!?

Ok so i broke my cell phone cuz i fell off a dock helping a boat get off the dock. so i fell and ruined my phone while tring to be a nice person. well my mom went and bought me a new phone costing 269 dollars. I get the fact it was nice of her to do and that she wants me to pay her back by doing chores. well tonight i cooked dinner then cleaned everything up she didnt have to do any thing and she said thats 5 dollars off. she will barely give me chores to pay off and when she does its maybe a few dollars. to me it's not fair if she barely gives me chores and pays very little for a big chore and wants me to pay her back. the only reason i have the phone is cuz of her and my dad they want to be able to call me when im not home cuz my phone works where i go camping so i can call her. add this too she wont pay me for grades or take them out of my money i owe her. i got a 3.95 gpa and accepted into chemistry and pre calculus as a SOPHOMORE! ugh it makes me sooo mad. any advice out there?

Since the birth of my grand-daughter, my daughter has probably held her maybe 10 times. My grand-daughter is now 4 years old. My grand-daughter at one point in her short little life managed to get her hands on a handgun left lying on a table in my daughters house, discharge the gun and nearly hit a women. Social services told my daughter not to let it happen again. Recently, my daughter called to ask if I would take my grand daughter in and raise her. The baby has never bonded and acts out, using words like the "c" word, the "f" word and verious other colorful words. She punches and kicks anyone close to her and I just don't know what to do. Please help me. I worry so much for her

Six months ago, I bought an apartment. In my country (I don't live in USA) it's quite a step, so I had to take a loan and a mortgage at the bank, but my mother and grandmother offered to lend me the money for the down payment and they didn't want the money back, they said it was the gift. The problem is, my mother and grandmother had always been making comments on how should I spend my money - I spend a lot of money on CDs, DVDs and books, I always did and I always will. I'm 37 years old, had steady, full-time job and I feel that there is no need for me to justify how I spend my own money. I've been listening about my CDs and DVDs for more than 20 years now, yet I I never once ask my mother why did she spend $60 on perfume. If it makes her happy, why not.
It all happened again this time. In a week, I'm traveling to France (of course, with my own, saved money) and there were comments again. Why do parents do that? Was it wrong that I took their money? Can't they just be happy for me?

My daughter is 2 yrs old and her father has only spent a total of 4 visits with her. He's got 2 other children with his ex-wife but, left her for her best friend and now the girl hangs up on the children and he just doesn't even bother with my child. He knows for a fact that she's his but still he doesn't do anything for her except the allotment which is 300 per month. He's in the military and I'm sure they don't know about his affairs what can I do?

Last night my gf was telling me her problem's with her parents. I listen to what she has to say and usually let her vent. Sometimes i start to worry about her problems and they bother me for a while. This is one thing that bothers me.
She told me last night that her parents always tell her to do things instead of asking. When she tries to bring this problem up with them they say shes being ungratefull ect.. She also said that they walk into her room and invade her privacy. When she locks her door *to change clothes ect.* they get upset and say shes trying to hide something. Right now my gf is 19 and in the next year she will go away to college. I dont think theres anything she can do except to get along with her parents. But what do you think and am i correct to be upset here?

My parents were on a trip I did some wrong stuf, bad friends made up my mind. When they came back, they got upset but weren't so harsh. I was grounded for 2 months but was lowed some fun and mom talked a lot w/ me, treated me w/ love. But for these 2 months she controlled me. I had to do chores and attend a culinary course. That sucked but she was strict. And since during the time I messed up I was dressing in a way she didn't approve, especially because I didn't wear a bra, she made me dress with more modesty and got me some bras that cover a lot of my breasts and give much support, to compensate for the time I was braless. I don't like them but didn't complain. Well, today she said she liked the way I behaved during my grounding, said I was forgiven, everything was over, trusts I wont mess up again. But she decided to keep me wearing the bras she gave me and I'll have to finish my culinary course. I dont like those bras and hate that course. And I even have to wear a sweet apron.

Some 20 years ago I was a very "actual" person. I was also a man that was very controling and very stern or harsh to my children. In fact I was an abusive parent, mostly vocally but also physically and mentally cruel. It took me a long time to understand my behavior was wrong, because I believed that I was not doing anything worse than was done to me as a kid. (I was completly wrong). My relationship with my kids is better after both individual and family counseling at the time. I wish I could take it all back.

Do any of you struggle with this issue? Are you seeking help?
any thoughts?

there and does not try, but then we we are at home she says yes she will do it. her twin sister is trying and doing the moves and enjoys it. the one in question is only interested in getting the uniform but not trying to learn the moves. how to handle the disappoint when she doesnt get her uniform and her sister does. she seems to throw fits when she doesnt get her way. her sister is not that way very easy going to be twins. the one in question is wanting to be the opposite of where anyone is like if i am outside she wants to be in vice versa im upstairs she wants to be downstairs. she has gotten scissors and cut her hair then her sisters hair. poured clorox on her moms new bedspread, just stays into things. this is why i thought it would be good for her to be in something stay busy with other girls her age. but she seems to refuse to try. but befor we go to practice one minute she says she will do it then when we get there she just stands and watches. any suggestions.

He had dated the mother for a very short period of time (it was a one night stand) and has raised his "son" from the beginning. My fiance wants to continue being a father and will keep paying child support. He is torn as to if and when he should tell his son this information. He would, however, like to tell the mother he knows he is not the biological father so she will back off. (She is always calling for more money even though she gets child support. She also expects my fiance to take his son whenever it is convenient for her and it is always outside of the visitation agreement.) The problem is that this woman is very selfish and my fiance believes she will tell his son in a cruel and hurtful way in order to redeem herself and justify what she has done. (We believe she knew that my fiance was not the biological father and "trapped" him.) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?

Hey, I am Alexandria...Winter's Sister. I just called the church that my Brother-in-law, Rabbit Man goes to. To make a long story short, Rabbit Man's father ( The Prick) goes to the same church & has known that they are having a child since his birthday- April 22.
Well, I called to let the church know that my sister (Winter) is having complications, her back & her heart. Do you know that The PRICK, has never said a word to anyone in the congregation about HIS SON & DIL having a child! It mean these people just do not care about my sister, their SON or my nephew! And now to have another baby on the way and not say anything! My sister & I both think that they are ashamed of the fact that they are low income. They NEVER call them unless THEY want something..Like the family is getting together & the rest of the time..don't bother.
What would you do in this situation? Also, you have to remember, these are the folks that neglected their little boy, by not changing his diaper.
Chao!

I am currently in this situation and it was my husband that told my private feelings to his mother.I was uncomfortable about the sleeping arrangements for the cabin holiday we were going on as an extended family. I have 3 children and we all have to sleep in the one room with the grand parents(they sleep in separate beds) my kids, myself(my husband can't come up the whole week until the weekend ) and my brother in-law and his new girlfriend are going to share a bed)Everyone is in plain view of each other (We are all on bunk beds)and I was uncomfortable about my children being there seeing their uncle sleeping with his girlfriend.I told him I wasn't sure if I wanted to go I asked my husband to not repeat it.He picked up the phone and I begged him not to call, that we could solve this between us and .......well he repeated to his mother. Now his mother & father aren't speaking to me and my husband said that I am not going and the kids are. I told him not if I am not there. I need advise

Hello. I have an old pc, its from 2001 and has 1.1 GhZ processor, Nvidia 2 series and 256 mb RAM, it keeps crashing, and the sound card is broken..not good? i know..

I am trying to convince my dad that it is really bad, and maybe he can support me with some money to a new pc, I am 12 years old so i cant buy one myself.
But he keeps giving me **** like "its very good still, stop complaining!" or "buy one yourself", i have calculated that with those small jobs i can get, it would take 5 years to buy a pc which is BAD, and still, in 5 years, it's even worse !

Please, has someone got any ideas of how i shall convince my rude dad to understand that it is bad and that maybe he could help me with some money?

i Really need one, i have much school works and i have to write!
I would really be glad if anyone could help me..

I recently (on Tuesday) found out that my daughters biological father passed away in May (2007) from a drug overdose. First of all I'm devastated that I found out 49 days after it happened and I think going to the funeral would have helped me with the acceptance and closure I'm struggling to have. I still cannot accept that he is gone..that he's dead..and it was by overdose.

He always had drink and drug problems, he was an addict when I met him..well at that time recovering. I was very young 17, he was older, 36. He was more like a friend to me then a lover, and he helped me get my life steered into a positive direction.. I stayed on that course of a "better life", he didn't and I feel terribly guilty now that hes gone. I feel like its my fault. I feel like if he would have had a reason to straighten out he would have and he wouldn't be dead. I think his reason was supposed to be our daughter, and I kept her away.
