Family - October 2007

I am going against my father in court , because he tried to come after me with a knife 2-3 weeks ago , and physically tried to threaten me and intimidate me with it . so i ran outside crying calling the cops . They came and arrested him .
Now i have the proof with me that he was yelling and screaming at me in a high voice in my Voice Recorder ( i got it because that's how much of a scary situation i am in in my house rt now ).

i started rebelling against my father since i was 17 due to his immoral and violent ways that he treated me . I went through depression , panic attack , social anxiety and everything by the time i was 24. . Due to his nature of lying , and deceit , my mom and bro are also with him . They are all going to go against me in the court . They don't know that i have this recording
and right now my mom and dad went to see a lawyer because i told them i am going to pursue the charge against him .

but I am really worried if i will lose this case in court. Will I ?

Situation: Dad and daughter. Starting at age 11and on or so. Always being too open in talking about sex with her. Tickling her sides almost like the sides of her breasts. Goofing off in front of family and/or friends and taking her shirt off and making a joke of it. Making her feel guilty by giving her the silent treatment when she voices it makes her feel uncomfortable.Smacking her on the butt when she walks by. popping bra straps. Untying bathing suit while walking by. Girl asks what a hickie is and dad (in a goofing away in front of friends and family) leans down and says I'll show you and gives her one. Giving her titty twisters while wrestling as a "cry uncle" thing.

the reason i ask and am confused is this was like a normal way of life growing up. We always just called him a pervert and laughed about it. My mom was always there. She had been molested when she was little and I figured she would say something if it was that. He never pulled out himself or had me touch him...

Awhile back(About two years ago)my sister got taken away from my mother. I don't really know the complete story, and it's long and saddening but all I want to know is how I would be going about contacting or even just telephoning her.

I am her oldest brother, I have no criminal record, and I live with my mom. If there is a way I can get her back, please post that too(I know it might be hard because you don't know what happened, but post anything helpful). If you have any questions just ask and I'll update the question promptly.

My daughters father and i arent together and recently i have been having trouble with his family, mainly his mother, she has called me non stop and made comments to people that i neglect my child just despite me. she knows this is not true and i know that she knows it she is just angry and being childish. they have not given me any financial support nor have they been there for me emotianally through this. they have bashed me constantly and now they wonder why i wont let emma stay w them on the weekends. i am wanting to write them a letter, being very nice and just basically telling them until they help support her financially they will be able to see her and in order for them to get respect u must give respect.

Me and my ex partner (my son's father) are going through the court about contact.. he is trying to stop me from moving away.. he see's his son regularly.. he used to be very controlling in the relationship which was my reason for leaving him.. he is still doing it, using our son.

My son says things such as "Mummy you're nasty" and "I don't love you" and when asked who says these things, he says "Daddy said it."

My son is 3.

My son has also said "I'm gonna get one of my friends to smack you!" and then stated again that "Daddy said it, Daddy's gonna get one of his friends to smack you!"

My son head-butts me alot, and hits me.

I have spoken to my solicitor, she told me to seek professional advice.. but I have no idea where to turn!! I feel very intimidated by my ex. I'm in the UK.. are there any organisations that can help me?

Thanks.

I don't think i got my point across in my last question, my dad we left when i was 7 now 8 yrs later he is back, all he ever talks about is women he wants to sh*g and he keeps tryin to get with my mom, he hasn't grown up at all, he tells me what i can and can't do what to wear ect, he has a court order to stay away frm me, he was controllin when we lived with him and he is doin it again, he lets me down all the time, says he is comin and never turns up and doesn't get in touch to tell me. he basiclly calls me a slag, he ignores me when he is here he just talks to my mom and bro, he doesn't stick up for me ever, he asks to see my mom on her own without me, goes mad as i apparently follow them everywhere, seems to me that my so called father wants more to do with my mom than he does me? he wants us to move back in with him but said if we do he will make my life a living hell. i didn't give u all the details in last question. so here they are. now do you think i should chuck him???

I know a kid who's parents went through a divorce and his step dad (the only dad he ever knew from 8 months old) took away his last name (when the boy was 15) claiming it wasn't "a legal adoption" and the boy wasn't acting like a (last name) -he wasn't handling the divorce so well. I believe this man with drew this boys identity the only name he ever knew. Interesting however, this step dad was adopted and his last name isn't even his by blood. I don't get how someone can do this to a child.

This kid doesn't want the last name unless it is given to him.

Over the years, it got significantly worse. He is a veteran and the condemnation of men in society, and fathers and everything else has gotten him very angry. He talks in circles, it used to be when bad things happened in society, he could point them out and say how things should be. Now, even when good things happen, like a wedding, or a new birth, he finds recents or past news to contradict the good event. He wraps his logic around all of the injustices done to people even if he does not know them. The scary part is, he is making total sense, and me and his family can't even be around him without being brought down. He used to work, but quit work after 6 months since people are "so lazy and talk all day about stupid stuff" or "women sit there all day and talk about men and when he talks about them, he is the bad guy" Now, he is on disability, and is deteriorating fast. He is battling skin cancer, and his prognosis is 50/50. He has really slipped into his own world. What to do?

I'm 19 and I'm married and my husband got arrested last weekend for DUI and I asked my mom to get a bond so he can get out of jail and I'll pay for it but she said no! I don't get it. It's not like I don't have the money, which I had to beg and borrow from a LOT of people but she won't do it. And it's been four days since I've really talked to him and it's driving me crazy and she knows this. Why would she put me through this?

It is now crystal why my grandson abruptly left his father and step mother.They were doing all they could to bring peace, love & stability into this child's life for past 2 years.
"Mom" allegedly promised him no rules!Told him that she wasn't in it for the child support.She & her husband's love was the ONLY reason for his return to their home.
Child support papers came today. Dad called son & told him as he apparently wasn't told by his "mom."
I'm truly frightened for this young man, as he is seriously angry for being "played" & has made terrible choices under stress in the past.
His father let him use expensive shotguns when he lived with them.They are still here! His father told him tonight that they will be sold,help pay the child support.
Should I notify the police in the boys town or his school? He has access to his grandfathers shotgun, & using it to practice trap shooting. His grandfather is clueless or possibly involved in his return home.

The past few years things have gotten really weird between my sister & I. I just got fed up w/ the disrespect & dismissive attitude of hers every time I would ask what's going on with her. She's been playing some mind games & I finally got fed up and called her on it, & put my foot down, telling her she has to come clean as I was done with the games. Her answer was to as usual clam up & then emotionally blackmail me by refusing her kids to see me. She refuses to talk about how things could be hammered out between us and does not want to talk, as usual. She feels she's innocent & is trying to showcase me like some nut that suddenly snapped to anyone who will listen. We mutually know a lot of people & her husband has no choice but to stand by her no matter what. She's involved him too despite my telling her this is between me and her. She knows she's in the wrong and her actions prove it even more. She doesn't hesitate to yell at me when she feels I messed up but I work it out w/her.

I'm pretty young so I'm really close with my nephew who's only 14. We talk a bunch and he's fine with telling me everything. He's been really stressed lately, so I asked him what's wrong. At first he wouldn't talk about it, but I got it out of him. He said he thinks his penis is not big enough, saying that he showed it to one of his best girl friends (at first he wouldn't tell me this, for good reason too because that was pretty surprising for a 14 year old) and he said she kind of scoffed at him when she saw it. He finally told me he's 4.25". I repeatedly tell him that size doesn't matter and that 4" is long enough at 14, but he disregards everything I say and just gets upset when I bring it up. How can I tell him that he's fine?

I'm 15 years old, and my parents divorced when i was 7. Ever since then, my dad has not exactly been the 'best dad' shall i say. He went to jail for DUI when i was 11-12. Ever since then, he has either had a suspended driver's liscence, been on house arrest or some other form of being in trouble with the law.

I just called him to talk to him and he told me that he got in trouble AGAIN. He was in a fight, after he had a few beers, and then decided to drive home with a suspended liscence from a few years ago. The sheriff pulled him over and now my dad says he thinks he will be on house arrest again and figures that he will end up going to jail.

when he got done telling me this, im practically in tears. i have no idea what i have done to deserve this. i am a straight A student in school, am always kind to everyone (at least i try =] lol) and im an all around good kid.

he always says that he loves me, and will always be there for me...but obviously he cant (continued..)

It's time for me to apply to college, and I was probably thinking Cornell, or Brown or another university somewhere along those lines. But all the great universities are very far from where I live, and my mom insists that I go to a community college because it's pretty much right near where I live. Or, she wants me to go to a university that's very close to where I live, but is not prestigious at all. And she's pretty much forcing me too. Which makes me VERY mad because I worked very hard these four years of high school to attain a perfect GPA and SAT score and great extracurriculars. My counselor said I have a great chance at getting into an Ivy league and she wants me to attend a community college or un-prestigious university just because she doesn't want to let me go. How lame? Is there anything I can do to convince her? So far, I've been arguing. It sucks.
