Family - August 2007

I was raised by my sister and her husband after our mother died. And their 36 yrs old i am 20. For the past 10 years i have been living with people that made me feel uncomfterable and unwelcome. My brother in law is such a gerk that yelled at me, threatened me, a couple times threw glass cups at me. And my sister is a real b**** that complains about anything and everything. When i was a young teenager they would make me watch there kids, do the dishes, feed the dog, clean the bathroom, vaccum, And never said thank you never appretiated anything i did. And when i did somthing wrong they would yell and scream at me call me useless and made me go to my room. They lowered my self esteem and now im finally moving out. Im not sure i can speak to my sister after i move out unless i tell her how i feel about her husband. Would it be appropriate to tell her threw an email? How i never liked the guy and i truly hate him?

My 15 year old niece has a My Space account, she was on it the other day when she was over, she wrote down her email and password and asked me to check her My Space emails and let her know if the guy she emailed emails her back, her parents don't have the internet so she has to use other peoples computers, anyways I looked through her profile and stuff and I did'nt like what I saw, she said a lot of stuff to make herself seem older, like that she was 17 and that she smokes and drinks, I know that is not true, she also makes herself out to be a slut, which is also not true, is it beyond my role of aunt to delete her account? I have told my sister about it but like I said they don't have internet so she can't delete it, I worry my niece will attract the wrong kind of attention.

My parents worked full time. I grew up mainly at my grandparents house. My grandparents lived at the beach. They had a whole room as a library. I read any book I could get my hands on, adult books, everything. I spent many time outside in the country beach playing alone. I spent time thinking up fairy tales and pretending I was characters out of books I read. I used to ride my bike everywhere and be back before dark. I spent much time alone and with the horses that lived near my place, and my horse. When my parents finished work, they drank a lot. My mother had an affair and the man was always over making her drunk and trying to take her pants off. My dad got abusive at times and wrecked the house and hit my mother. My brothers started drinking and smoking at 13 and got into big trouble all the time. Am I normal?

My boyfriend &I have been dating for 3years. I just finally admitted to my family that I have a boyfriend. &they made it clear enough to let me know that they "hate" me. See, My family isn't the perfect family. Actually,no ones family is perfect,but believe me my family is beyond normal. It's easy to tell that my family has problems.. financially too.. My parents never talk to me.. &it took me this long to realize they arent going to change. They just tell me what to do, and not in a "nice" way..but by yelling. My eldest brother even told me they werent going to change.They plan on making me brake up with my boyfriend..But you know that feeling when you just "know"..I know he's the one...I love him so much. He's been there whenever I needed to vent from this little thing called "life",progress on my religion,and took me out from my misery..I would never want to lose him, three years and I wouldnt trade it for the world. I just dont know what to do or how to make my family understand..

She doesn't like the fact that I have a boyfriend. She thinks I'm too young. I'm 15 by the way and I'm in highschool now. She's always nosey about my bussiness, like I'm going to do something insane and crazy, especially when my boyfriend is around. How can I let her know that, without physically telling her? Thanks everyone!

Oh and also how can I get my family to unban him from our family hill.(we all live up on a hill and he is no longer allowed to come up) Any suggestions?

My sister and I cannot punish him, & my parents are too lenient and easy, so my brother never learn his lesson. Once, he wanted a wii game and my parents got it for him the very next day because he promise he would be good, but that's always a lie, but my parents always yield to him. He never eats food at home but always asked for McDonald, oh and he refused to sleep alone, he'll rather bother my parents in the middle of the night than to sleep in his own room. He also have a bad temper and would get in fights with me and my sis, and even if he gets yelled at, he never learned his lesson. Because of the way my parents treated him, he became a spoiled and selfish brat, and my sister is suffering from it because she's the only one he can bully, so what can we do to make my parents discipline him better? We already tried to explain to them the concept of grounded but they would never stick to it...

My father was recently arrested for a 3rd time for possesion of Methamphetamine. ( we aren't close as a result of his using) His 1st cousin posted his bail in the amount of 11,000 and they are now living "happily ever after" as lovers... to me and my 3 sisters this is utterly disgusting, so why is his family so supportive of this?

Is it normal to start crying for a VERY long time because I see my grandma is basically paralyzed. She takes meds because she has cancer. She cant even talk or show any emotions currently because of the meds. I get very sad and cry for a LONG time because I see her like that but she used to be full of life and could talk. Is it normal to do this?

My husband works and i stay at home to look after our 5 month old son, and hubby is very tight with his money. I understand that we have to save our money, as we are hopefully going to build a house soon, but i still find it difficult. He controls all the money (well, it is his), but won't splash out just once, and let me buy something for me. Am i wrong? And how do i stop feeling jipped?

Just think about how misreable it must be for a helpless infant to cook together in a vehicle. What is wrong with people? How on earth could anyone forget and leave their child in a car? I never ever forgot about my children not for a minute and I never, ever left them in a car and it makes me sick to think anyone would "accidentally" leave their child to roast in their car. What are these people thinking?

I made myself look bad in front of my own children so they woud not hate their Father. Not realizeing the damage it did to my childeren as far as their impression of me!! I finally told the truth to my 17 yr. old. She fully undertands now why I did the things that I did! But it dosen`t make it right! I have been a stay at home Mother for 17 yrs. I feel so trapped!! I don`t want to hurt my husband but like I said befor I can no longer cover up for him for by doing so I will destroy myself!

Okay, my husband and I recently had a baby, she is now 2weeks. This is our fourth child. None of our families came to visit us in the hospital during the four day stay, except for my husband's sister. My parents are passed, but his are not. His parents came the night I had the baby but they only saw her through the window, never touching her or holding her, they did not return for the 4 day stay. I have sisters though, the one closest to me did not even call me, until a week later, I did not answer the phone. We are not bad people. My husband and I have degrees. I stay at home and take care of the children. We are clean. We have an ideal home. The people I attend church with came and saw us. They even brought us food when we returned home, not once but for five days. To top it off last Sunday his parents were coming to see us (remember they haven't really met the baby) they decided to hang out at the mall until 5:30 then came over for 45min. I can't get over this. What should we do?

For the past 5 months ever since my uncle and his family came from China, my mom has changed. There's never one good day or week we haven't fought are argued and I;m getting so sick of it. She beats me and screams at me because she's like giving away everything to them and I really missed those things. She's gotten psycho and she beat me with a stick and now my leg is all bruised up. I really can't take it anymore. She said that I've changed but the real deal is she's the whole who's changed into a psycho b****. There's not one week that I haven't cried at all. She wasn't like this before I'm so sick of fighting with her and all the things that made me really depressed, I just wanna move in with my aunts. What should I do? Please help
