I really feel badly for my sister and her husband, but we haven't spoken in years. I can't imagine losing a child and wish to express to her that my heart truly goes out to them both. But I don't want to upset her anymore by hearing from someone she doesn't want to hear from, but my heart tells me to send it anyway because I do care.

my daughter is 17 years old and spoiled and disobedient! i buy her things that she does not even have to ask for but i know she wants - and i pay for her dance classes and i feel that she makes the whole family revolve around her and her schedule. I'm even throwing her a huge 18th birthday party because i want to do it for both of my daughters so it will be memorable. she also dumped a very decent guy that i begged her to stay with...she makes bad things up about him saying "he's a jerk" or "he's a player" when i have actually met him and he seems like a complete gentleman. the latest thing she's done for me is get a job but now she complains about how she will be late getting to work because she wont have the car right after school. what do i do with her!

What do employers have to do before they call the person they interviewed and want to hire? As in do they have to figure out schedules and pay and everything like that and more?? Can you explain to me what they have to do and how long it usually takes??? Because this is the thing... it is at a gym for a front desk position and I had my first interview last wednesday and the guy is a personal trainer that hires and he told me that he would have the FINAL decision on who they would hire at the LATEST by last friday and they didnt and never called me. Then yesterday morning they called me in for a second interview and told me i needed to talk to the night manager cuz thats who i would be working with mostly and he said he wanted to hire me ( the 2nd guy ) and said he will get back at me by today but didnt. He said all he needed to do was tell the first guy that interviewed me to HIRE ME!!!! So why didnt they call me when they said they would? Thanks!

I was reading that the recall effected toys sold between May and August. My son's Birthday is March 10th, and received some of the recalled toys. We have checked the product numbers to confirm. I think this is bigger than Fisher Price realizes. What can we do?

I had a suicide attempt and then the state forced me into a mental hospital and I just got out and my they billed my dad who I am still in custody with and then when he got the billed he yelled at me and told me how much of a leech I how weak I was for trying to commit suicide and then he said that he wished I died because it would be cheaper for him....I feel so bad having my Dad say that to me but it makes me seem that I am at fault for his problems and that if I died life would be easyer for him...

My sibblings never really have to do anything, unless they are asked to several times by my mother. I on the other hand am expected to clean and cook and on the few off days that i don't she (my mother) give's me an attitude for not doing what she didn't have to ask me to do. If she is really so worried about the dishes being done or having a meal when she comes home-- why dosen't she just tell her other lovely children, who lie around here doing nothing. I am so sick of her serving my sibblings first, and only being happy with me when I work alll the time! So freaken unfair! what should I do?

at my school, they dont take cap and gown photos, just senior portraits. so my mom is telling me that i have to go to the mall and take cap and gown pictures cause she wants some of me. but i dont want to go to the mall and do that. i'm not going to want any of those pictures. (can anyone say "waste of money"?) she thinks that just because my sister took cap and gown pictures for h.s at the mall, that i should too. but it was my sister's choice. i dont even have a choice! how can i convince her to not make me go and take those pictures?

Ok, my mom was married to my dad for 27 years before my dad passed on. It's been 8 years since he's been gone and my mother has finally found someone to settle down with again. I haven't met him yet. He sounds like a really nice guy and I'm really nervous about meeting him. I want him to like me since he and my mother are seriously considering getting married. What are some things I can say to ease the tension and make him feel like part of the family? I haven't seen my mom this happy for 8 years and I just want to make a good impression and let him know how much of a difference he's made in my mom...

(I'm 24 and live 3 hours away from my mother)

This is really hard to try to make this short. I'll try. My parents are married, and I believe that we can all be a happy family. My mom is really unhappy because she doesn't feel any love in her relationship with my father. They just don't have a healthy relationship. I want everything to be okay.

I want my parents to be happy, and I'm afraid of divorce. I worry that if that ever happens, how my parents will be by theirself. My dad drinks a lot but he's wonderful when he's not drinking. I love my parents too much to see them apart, and they love us too much. I can never choose between them. If I had to live with my mom, I'd worry if my dad's okay. He'll have no one without my brother and I. My mom will be so mad if I choose to live with my dad.
I just don't know. I'm living everyday worrying, and I'm just hoping that they will stay together, and be happy. I want them to work things out. See, I'm writing this really jumbled up because I don't know how to explain. Complex. Try?

My sister, who is in her early 20s still lives at home with our parents. Over this past weekend, she and her boyfriend were in her bedroom doing things that no one would want their parents to ever see! LOL They WERE dressed, by the way, but obviously, thought they were alone when my parents returned home from dinner and walked by her room. My mother said the door was half opened and they didn't "sneak" into the house. Evidently, my sister and her boyfriend were oblivious and do not know what my parents saw. My parents have had some trust issues with him in the past, un-related to anything sexually, but have just overcome those issues, and now this. They are quite old-fashioned and conservative and my dad wanted to wring his neck upon seeing this! LOL They haven't said a word to either of them. Should they say anything and keep going on as if they didn't see this or how should they approach and handle this very awkward situation? My mother and I are very close as are my sister and I...

I am 14 years old. I have made honor roll since kindergarden, and have never had a C. I am polite, and respectful to adults, and I pull my weight around the house with chores and other responsibilities. I make good friends, stay out of trouble and I dont drink or do drugs. I am involved with extra activities such as track and cross-country running. However, my parents still constantly barge into my room just to see what I am doing. and im like Excuse me?! god its so annoying. dont i deserve some privacy?

It seems amazing that I'm even asking this. I graduated college, but I'm still working the crappy retail job that I had during those years. I'm starting grad school (an MA program), which restricts what kind of job I can go for... basically, I can't make that much more money than I'm making now, as long as I stay in school.

At the rate I'm going, I'll be broke in about a year and a half. Savings gone, and not making enough money to pay rent, food, and tuition. My job now pays for rent...barely, and I use my savings from my time in the military to cover the rest.

What should I do? I could give up on my dreams and drop grad school to get a full-time job, or give up my self-respect and live with my folks, who are now about a 45-min commute from my university.

Right now I'm going to go as long as the savings will hold me, but I'm starting to see the writing on the wall... Wouldn't I be a 25-yr old loser if I lived with my folks again?

I mean to the point of being sick with stomach ulcers etc. There are really taking a toll on my mental and physical health and talking to them won't do any good because they are stuck in their ways. I am honestly thinking about going to college and never coming back bc I can't tell with all the pain that I am going through. Has anyone else been in a similiar situation. If so.. how did you cope?

Me and my Chap are both nearly 21 and we have been together on and off for 3 years. We had quite a hostile relationship to begin, and we used to argue alot. This would mean that i would end up going home to my Mums house in tears! and he gets jelous if i am talking to any other male friend that is not a mate of mine AND his! but i have got used to that now! Now that me and him are sorted and we are engaged she has totally shunned him out saying that 'he is no good for me' and that i deserve better! but i love him and we are both happy! I could understand her feeling like this if he beat me! she kicked me out and i have now got my own place with my best friend, she will come round and see me but only if she knows that he is not there! she has also turned my whole family against him, even my younger brothers!!
But my boyfriend doesnt want anything to do with her after everything that has been said so i cant even get them together to try and talk it out!! HELP PLEASE!!!

I got a letter from the ex mom n law.. she wrote "I blame you because you have continued to allow him(her 38yr old son)to ignore the boys and not putting your foot down and asking that he be the father he is supposed to be. I know it's kind of a weird question to understand. But her son has very minimal connect with his 11 and 15 yr old. He appears once every 2-3 mths and just ends up upsetting the youngest. We live a mile away and he never returns the boys or my calls. So we quit calling him. Is it fair of her to blame me for anything another human chooses to do? Her son does not want to be involved in two fantastic kids lives? P.S. I'm debating how to approach replying...She has been a good part of our life. However now I'm having a hard time trusting her. Just looking for opinions. Thanks

My mom made this weekend for us in the Cape, like just a few days. i didn't particularly want to go, I don't like beaches and I don't like the heat, and all my mom's going to do is sunbath while I sit in the hotel and read and bore myself to death. But I go because I feel like it's my obligation because she complains that she has no money but she makes us go on these trips. It just makes me feel guilty if I say I don't want to go with her. So today she yells at me about packing and just bickering. It made me not want to go. Because it just means that we're going to fight the whole time. But we were in the car and she had a ***** fit complaining about my attitude or whatever because I ran inside because I forgot something, I told her I was going inside, and then when I come out she made me go get something for her and I was pissed because I already was in there. So she kicked me out of the car and now shes off to the cape and I'm at home. I feel completely guilty and I don't know why.

He's been here for my problems, and i've been here for his. We tried going out, but because of long-distance issues, it didn't work out. I want to be with him forever, but so far, my best friend "Amy" hates the idea and says that I'm going to lose half my soul if it doesn't work out. One of my guy friends is moving to Japan because I was proposed to, and I had to talk him out of suicide. What should I do? I'm so lost...
