Family - August 2007

My fiancee's mother is the most meddlesome and annoying person on the face of this planet. She calls him 6 to 7 times a day(they live together, he helps her pay bills) and when I was staying there on vacation, she called me just as much. Have you ever heard of a son who yells and screams at his mother and tells her to mind her own business, stay of his affairs, to let him go, leave him alone, yet she still does what she wants? LOL, it is absolutely amazing to me. I've seen him yell and scream at her, demanding his privacy and respect, since being nice never works, and yet the very next hour..she is back to meddling again? She is always in his and my business. He and I are getting married next year and I am moving to be near him. She refuses to let him go and is constantly trying to control him and me. We don't rely on her or need her at all, she can barely do for herself. I'm not going to be able to deal with this as a married couple.

My son is with my sister and she won't give him back. I have tried calling her and emailing her for almost three weeks. I went to her house today and the lawn is overgrown and nobody was there. I have custody (never has been a question about that). I know she knows that I want him because she has talked to our father. Now she's mad at him. I'm ready to press charges. Please help me someone. I'm worried about my baby. He's only eight. I know he's okay physically, but I don't want this to hurt him psychologically.

My mom and dad have been married for 27 years. My mom has been wanting a divorce for awhile now but cant make it on her own. There is no love between them at all and there never has been. My dad has slept on the couch for as long as I can remember. They fight constantly. They are both home alot of the time so they are always seeing each other and they just fight all the time. I am married and pregnant and I live about 15 mins from them. I finally had enough last night after another phone call from them with them yelling at each other. I am the one who has to listen to all their bullsh*t. I finally talked to each of them seperately and said I am sick of this fighting. It is all I have known my whole life and yall are no foundation for me my brother or my sister. I said yall have no love for one another and my mom sais yes you are right-I resent your dad for all the hell he has put me through for 30 years(controlling, alcoholism, treats her like she is stupid, does nothing with the fami

Long story short, my sis moved out a month ago and she keeps coming round not to chat just to watch TV and she had her friend round one night from 5pm, our house is open plan and I was cooking for me and my bro but since my sis and her friend were having a private conversation I had to stop and go upstairs, by 11.30pm they were still there and me and my bro were starving so I went downstairs and spoke to my sister and basically said they both have their own homes which are empty so why cant they go there so I can sit in the living room of my own home, they soon left and I found out a few days later that her friend said I was rude and she would never come in our house again because she doesnt feel welcome.

My point was it was 11.30 at night and I think their being there was rude.

Was I wrong?

Aside from his mother refusing to let go of her 29 year old son who is ready to get married and start a family with me, he and I have major issues with his mother. I am more than respectful to her and nice and haven't spoken my mind and for his sake, I doubt that I ever will. However, he is Puerto Rican and Sicilian. I am biracial mixed with Black, Asian, and Indian. When we start living together as a married couple though, I would love to prepare the meals that he loves so much by her. I have called and even when I was with her, I asked her 4 times for several recipes of Puerto Rican food(recipes her mother in law gave to her) and Italian recipes from her family. I have yet to get them. I am determined to prepare authentic meals for my fiancee, but I dont understand 1) Why she is refusing to give them to me?

My mother in law has really poor health. She recnetly under went triple by-pass surgery, vascular surgery on one leg and now needs it on the other. I really think she is in jeopordy of losing that foot. Her and her husband (not my husbands father) are not going to make it. They were seperated for about one year and she went back in Feb. after her bypass surgery, but it is not going to work. She has mentioned going out of state to live near her sister, but we know that it is not what she wants. She has even said it. We have been talking to her about living with us. She is toying with the idea, but we want to her to come now. Her and her husband have sold the house they were living in and have a very short time to get out of it. What really concerns us is there is not any air conditioning in the house. It is triple digits here. Her fear is that if she comes to us now then by the time my husband get a day off to move her belongings and put them in storage that her sister in law will come

Ok...my bro and his gf kinda broke up like a few days ago. She did it over a text message and that pissed me off. And before he goes back to college they got back together and he told me and I went off! I was like she lost my respect. She did earn it and then she did that to him and she lost it. And its not easy for me to respect his girlfriends. And she gained it and now I don't want anything to do with her. And he is telling me I better be nice and stuff and my mom is making excuses for her saying she was afraid. And so I was saying nobody messes with my bro and expects that I won't forget about what they did. I don't really hold grudges but I mean she thinks that everything will be ok IT WON'T! I was saying I was gonna go at her and stuff...and so my mom is like getting mad and so is my bro and I don't want him to be mad at me before he goes back to college...What do I do?

today i am going to a bbq at my boyfriends parents house. i will be meeting his parents for the first time. normally, this would be no problem for me, but here's the catch: i am 26, he is 34. we are both in the middle of divorcing our previous partners. he has been going through his divorce for a year, mine for a couple months. i have already met his 2 young daughters who adore me, and that is great. but his family are from italy, and they are very strong personalitied people and i am very nervous. i know they have reservations about him dating again, and bringing a new woman into their grandkids lives, especially someone so much younger than he. although he and i have intentions of marrying in the future, and i will never hurt those kids, this is not something we can talk about yet to the family. how do i be myself around his parents so that they will accept me and understand that i am not just a dumb kid, but someone who is truly ready to take on their son and all he comes with?

I was in long-term foster care, but I'm grown now. On MySpace, my former foster nephew turned down my friend request. When my former foster mom (his biological grandmother). My former foster sister asked me why he's not on my friend's list. I said, "I don't know." & my former foster mom got mad @ me & they both said at the same time, "WTF does he wanna add you for & you're his AUNTIE!?" & my former foster sister just set me up to get yelled at so she can laugh at me.

My response was, "Well, other foster family members have added me." But, they think that you have to LITERALLY be people's friend to add them. (On MySpace, adding someone as a friend is the same as adding someone here on Y!A as a "contact"). Shoot! I have plenty of foster & biological relatives on my friend's list.

I know this might sound biased but i don't really care cos i still don't think it's fair, What do you think?

I am the oldest child of 2, there is an age gap of four years. We are having the attic converted and my brother is getting the room, it sucks. I've wanted the attic room since I was 6 yrs old (that's 8 years) and my brother's never been bothered. I even had to have my room made smaller so my brother had a bigger room. I hate being the older child =[ Why can't I be the only child I'm so upset.

my mother in law keeps bitching about me to my mother, my husband...saying i dont keep things tidy, i dont socialize enough with the family, i dont help out round the house...etc

I have my own house, and i barely visit her house....and therefore i dont see the need to do the cleaning/washing up- esp since she has a bloody cleaner! as for socializing with the family...i am very very private and what little i do, is never enough

I work full time and i am supporting my husband, her son. My parents help us out a lot as well and we have done a lot for her. She doesnt listen to reason, she whines, she bitches and she moans about every single thing i do...and we both ignore each other.

My husband is caught up in all of this...yet his siblings side with their mother, which is understandable......but she wouldnt like it if someone said bad things about her daughter....so why do it to anther woman?

please dont say talk to her coz she wont listen..she shouts and walks out.

...with a 7 year old girl. The girl's mother was watching them and sent them to the room to watch a movie before bed. The girl came out a short while later and said, "You don't have to come check on us, we're fine." A RED FLAG went up in the mom's head and a minute later she caught her daughter draped in a blanket straddling my 10 year old and "humping" him. (they were both bare) WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH THEM????

When I was 12 (Im 14 now)Ok my little sister(she was 8 at that time) does some stuff wrong like at school (behavior problems) My Mother hit her and left she was told to take a shower and my mother left to go to work my two older brothers pushed her and grabbed her towel away from her One is 18 the other is 17. They laughed in front of her and said "we already saw you no need to cover it up"

I cant get this out of my head it is haunting me they are both 20 and 21 now they both stopped it. How can i get rid of these thoughts.

He lives in another country. My mother left when I was young and he raised my two other siblings and myself. He made alot of mistakes and was abusive, although he did the best he could. Up until last year I was engaged. He said he would not come to the wedding, that it was too long of a flight. Am I obligated now to go see him simply because he is my dad and getting older etc. He makes very little effort now, 1 phone call a month, maybe a 3 line email every second week.

My brother is 14 and im 16 and he is a total pain in the @zz. Last night he got on my last nerve and I totaly went off on him. He's been annoying me since last week, it like he's the younger brother front hell!
I was on Myspace when he was just doing random little things just to piss me off and I had it!
I told him " F*** you you little s***, just f*** off and leave me the hell alone, You have just been a total pain in the @zz and I'm sick of it!" He looked pretty scared and he ran away from me. It felt so good to let out all that anger bus so bad to yell at my younger brother. I tried say I was sorry but he just wouldn't anwser me. Do you think I was TOO harsh for yelling at my brother like that? My friends think he'll get over it and my parents took a 2 week trip to Ohio and their cell phones don't get a signal there so I can't get in touch with them

Our 23yr old niece is staying with us this summer and we have her for another 4 nights. I feel that she is very disrespectful of us because she stays out all night with different men. She is actually my husband's niece. This is behavior that I don't think she would attempt if she were staying at her parents house. My hubby seems scared to lay out any rules. He complains about it to me but won't tell her to her face. I want to make a reasonable 1am curfew and tell her about it. Would you? I feel every house needs to have some order and discipline and I'm not scared to lay it out.
