Family - September 2007

My favorite cousin lives in Washington State, and I live in Connecticut. We only get to go to Washington to visit him, my other cousin, and my grandma like every other year, but this year we didn't get to go. Lately, I've been really upset about it. I cried myself to sleep last night.

The one way I've been able to talk to my cousin is through myspace. I don't have one because my dad doesnt like myspace so i use my friends to talk to him. (yes she gave me permission) and my dad goes crazy with the parental controls on the computer and he BLOCKED MYSPACE. its the only I'm able to talk to him and now I'm even more upset.

It's taking over my life. I already said how I cried myself to sleep, and then right when I woke up this morning, I was thinking of him.

Help please? I don't know what to do.

Yesterday I gave the boy two chores. Clean our 3 exterior man doors with 409 and wash sponge off the sliding window tracks where they collect dirt. My wife thought this was inappropriate and that I should do it. I did and it took about 15 minutes total. She also stated that I was unfair to have him sponge off the white baseboards in the house twice a year, about a 20 minute job. I don't get it. I think she is babying him.

Mine would have to be:
One minute of patience in a moment of anger can save you many days or sorrow, regret & unhappiness.
I know anger hurts alot of people, even the "angry" one.

ok, i know they are our parents and we are supposed to listen to them and follow their rules [which i do so this isnt one of those why do we listen to parents questions] why do we, the kids have to do our parents laundry, dishes, and cleaning? i have to do my moms laundry and i do the best i can but if i wrinkle her clothes she goes psycho every time and i try not to wrinkle them. her clothes require so much attention, u have to put certain stuff on the stains and remember what cna and cant go in the dryer. and if i mess up shell get mad at me. personally, i dotn care if my clothes are a little wrinkled or folded or w/e. so if she doesnt like the way i do laundry why does she continue to harass me about it instead of doing her clothes herself?? are kids really supposed to be personally servants to parents? like drop everything so we can get them a drink or food. do their cleaning, laundry, and dishes??

I despise going to church. My mom is a devout Catholic, and she has all of a sudden started demanding that I go to church. I am not Catholic, neither is my sister or father. My mom lets my dad do whatever he wants (they won't fight about it--married 29 years). For the past year or so, she has also allowed my sister and I to stay home from church. However, since my sister moved out (off to college on Wednesday), my mom suddenly began to insist that I go to church. I hate it. I am not Catholic. I see that the church is riddled with corruption and believe that many of the core doctrines are contradictory. I have repeatedly voiced my anger with her over this, and I refuse to attend mass. She will not listen to me in this matter, and just continues to insist that I go to church. She is DEMANDING that I go, and I am not going to be forced to do something against my will that I hate so dearly. WHAT can I possibly do to help her understand this WITHOUT me attending?

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY.

We're always arguing at each other. She's always arguing at me because she doesn't know how to change the channel on the TV, when I try to show her she doesn't want to listen, so we fight about that. She always gives me Ultimatums and I get upset about that, she's always arguing about my controlling behaviour, she always gives me this big presidential speech about how "She does all this work and all I do is sit at home all day", despite the fact that I do a lot of stuff out in the community, when I bring it to her attention she's always unimpressed, expecting more... I play World of Warcraft and when I'm in the middle of a Raid she's always yelling at me to change the channel on the TV for her or she won't cook me supper.. I tell her "In a few minutes, I need to focus here. I've tried showing you how to use the remote, you didn't want to listen, so now you have to wait." She yells at me because she wants me to do it right then and there, then I get yelled at by my Guild......... GRRRRR

I am 27, have been living in my parents' home since I graduated from college 1 yr ago. I've been working a good full-time job but I'm getting restless. I feel like I'm not really doing anything. So I'm looking for a new job and I may move across the country to be with my boyfriend (we are in a long-distance relationship). Problem is, my parents hate my boyfriend. My mom supported my decision to find a new job until she realized it would be near my bf. She ranted about how we're going to live together, which is not my intent until we are married, how he is going to be a deadbeat, which he has never been. My parents want me to marry someone rich, same ethnicity, religion. He's none of these, but I love him. Parents don't like him b/c he's working a lower level job not in his field. My mom told me she would not attend our wedding if we got married. I feel trapped. I want a life of my own but I feel like I should honor my parents. Can I resolve this without angering them?

My brother (18) got a 16 ( soon 2 be 17) year old girl pregnant. She found out in January. She is due in 11 days. Her father was preacher and was shameful so he moved from KY to Oregon which is 2500 miles away from the father and his family. My brother wants custody of this child, or to atleast see it. She has threatened adoption and other stuff if he does not move to Oregon. He had a plane ticket to move out there today.. but canceled it. He should not have to sacrifice his life down here to go and abide by her family's rules, he would be staying 50 miles away from her and the baby with her grandmother. Can anyone give me any advice as to how to go about getting custody.. and his rights as a father?

My niece invited herself to come stay with me and after two days I'm going bonkers. I live in a small apartment and she's taken over my living room - I feel like a prisoner in my own home. I have dropped hints that she should go stay with another friend of hers in town who has a big house and she could sleep in a bed instead of on my couch - but she seems clueless when I tell her she should go stay there. I feel like turning off the a/c and telling her it's broke to get her to leave! I didn't invite her - she invited herself. I didn't fix dinner tonight and have not offered to entertain her. She doesn't seem to be getting the hints! She just sits on my couch staring at the tv. She's not easy to talk to and doesn't seem to want to budge. Any advice?

My dad's an alcoholic and when he drinks he is a completely different person...he is really mean. He's been like this my whole life..so my mom divorced him because he gets out of control and now sometimes I'm home alone with him and when he's drunk he always finds something to fight about..he targets who ever he's around. I also think he is depressed...well actually i know he's depressed and I feel bad for him sometimes..but most of the time I get really mad. I love him so much and I know he loves me too..he just acts completely different when he drinks. He knows he has a problem but he doesn't really do anything about it. I don't know how to talk to him about it..I never have..I'm afraid.. I don't know ..what do you think? I just don't want to grow up and be one of those people who never really had a father figure..I feel like I'll regret never doign anything about it..btw I'm 15.

tell me what you think...ok thank you

My father has never spent quality time with me throughout the past 20 years of my life. He is a workaholic. He never taught me any technical skills, sports or whatever. Even when he is at home he never communicates, he justs sits behind a newspaper or watches TV. He never encourages me, takes pride in my academic achievements, and he doesn't care about me emotionally. He is as good as growing up w/o a father. He's also a very strict disciplinarian, always caning me whenever I offended him even a little or whenever I try to stand up to him. I'm afraid of him and I don't love him at all. He also annoys me by always trying to say I'm in the wrong and not a good son, etc even when things are ok. I really hated him for this. He always uses physical force on me and even threatened to send me to a boys' home or cut off my fingers when I hit my brother.
He is worse than a terrorist. I think he has some issues at work and he tries to displace it on me as some object.
