I'm 26 yrs old, and my sister is 38. I live with her, and her two kids, becuase she is going through a divorce and needs some help. I pay her rent every month, I pay my bills, I have a full time job, and I help take care of her children. I have had money problems in the past, but that is WAY behind me, so why does she insist on treating me like I'm 10? I am also gay, and I have a girlfriend. She doesn't want her kids to know, so my gf and I behave appropriately, no hand holding, no kissing.....and she STILL feels the need to remind me repeatedly that we have to behave around the kids...like I could forget....I feel like she won't let me be myself, and since I live in her house, I better do it, and listen to her....or else...does that sound fair to you? cuz to me....it sucks....and my gf isn't too happy about it either :'(

my parents are the complete opposite of that. they're constantly saying things like "When we grow old, you better take care of us", "I've given you everything that I had, so you have to repay us when you get a career", "You owe us so much, and we expect you to pay it all back when you get older". i don't understand HOW any parent could think like that. it's not like I chose to be born, right? they should've been willing to sacrifice everything and unconditionally love me. isn't that how parent-children relationships are supposed to be? or is there really a debt that i'm in?

I would clean our apartment for "8" hours the night before and have problems sleeping (leg cramps, hungry, thirsty, annoyed, or I have to pee about the 100 time).So, I go and take a bath (( we moved here about 2 months ago and I cleaned this tub out like crazy- So I took a bath and I filled it up and after 10 mins, there isn't like any water in the tub no more hot water so time to get out)) Sense I got up early I go down to the laundry mat to clean my work cloths and hoping that the soap machine doesn't rip me off again,(don't have enough change to buy more).I am Kind of in a great mood, a little tired still running off yesterdays energy. I get there put 50 cents in-so IT DON'T GIVE ME ANYTHING, I was wanting to rip it off the wall and throw it threw the office window out where we live. lol..Then I looked around to see what to do. At the sink there was a bottle of dawn dish soap so I used that. ha-ha, Then I went back to our townhouse, My door was stuck and I was pushing to get it open. I finally got it open it slammed against the wall, now I have a hole in my wall. so I ignored my anger/ then laughed and said to my son, that' what it gets for messing with mommy. After that I changed his diaper, told him to go and throw it away, I washed his hands. Then we went to out to have breakfast. I got back and didn't think of the stress of what happen earlier. I went down an d got my lemonade smelling uniform. lol. They have 6 or 7 driers and only 4 work! This guy was using all the good ones. So," I thought whatever" were going to my BF moms place, I can dry them there. after work I am so happy to get home. Walked in and I find 5 dirty diapers, a lot of soda pop bottles "did the football team come and visit", there was like crap everywhere. I wasn't sure what to think at first. I think they had a party. I just looked at him and gave him a dirty look and said "Glade you kept it clean" and try to be nice and not turn into the pregnant HULK as usual ( I was too tired ).I told him I am surprised you could even walk around without falling on your face, what If i would fall and hurt myself or my belly?!! .He is always glued to his X-box. And I am always cleaning and doing something. I feel so stressed out and twisted kind of out of focus. Then when I am cleaning and getting things done, I think I signed up for this (thinking to myself).Then I see him getting up and picking a lot of stuff up. Moving things back to where it belongs.” without telling him too", even though I see him do it I don't draw attention until I am done cleaning. Then I act surprised and tell him I love him and thank him!

My dad was cheating on my mom back in '93 and she kicked him out. So he married the whore he was cheating with. She tore our family in two. She's driven my poor dad to near-suicide multiple times. She turned my dad against his mother, his siblings and his two oldest sons (mainly, me and my twin brother.) She whores out on him regulary, because he's a commercial fisherman and is gone for periods of time. Because my twin brother moved up there, she treats him like ****, forces him to sleep in the basement, can't leave the house except for school,and, very rarely, Mom's house. Because I didn't move with him, I'm the family black sheep, and she conned my little half-brothers, who used to jump with joy upon hearing I was coming over, into believing I'm the Anti-Christ. Even Dad hates me,and considers me a "Nuisance" when I come over. I told her to her face once, and Dad threatened to kill me. Also, she'll abandon the kids to work over the local tavern. Please help me out here, I'm confused.

just wondering what was everyones worst spanking story. Im 18 but when I was 16 I crashed my parents car driving too fast at night. The next day my mom said she would take care of it. My dad agreed. After dinner that night I went to my room. My mom came up there with her 3 implements. I've been given a spanking with these for the last 10 years. As always the hairbrush, belt, and a thin tree branch. I've never taken a bare butt spanking before so I never minded spankings. I got over her knee for the hairbrushing and she said "no no no, pants and undies down today. I begged but she said they are coming down sometime, if I resist she will double my spanking. So I lowered my pants and my underwear. naked in front of my mom. sucke. The over her knee. 5 minutes hairbrush. Then I got up and was told to lay down with pillows under my butt. 5 minutes belt then 5 thin branch. I couldnt move my butt was so swollen. I had marks for weeks and it was really bruised. Whats yours? suck worse then mine

We have not spoken in 3 days. Everytime we're in the same room, he doesn't make eye contact. I feel grossed out at what he was doing. It wasn't just the typically thing he was doing. He had a pillow and balloons, etc. How can I get this out of my mind?

"I feel like we have buried our daughter in many different ways. ...I told your father back in March that we had lost you and that we need to mourn you."

My sister announced her babies birth in the local paper and her husband was mad because she didn't list his mothers parents who have been dead for over 20 years, should she have listed these? I thought you only listed the living and maybe the "late" spouse if the other spouse is still living, am I wrong in my thinking?

My family thinks that I stole money from them. So here is what happened.

My dad wasn't feeling well and went to sleep. I went into his room about an hour before I left to hang out with some friends to be sure he was alright. Before I left the room, I took a box out that my mom asked me to move. A couple of minutes before I left I checked on him one more time. I just wanted to be sure. He then call\s me about an hour after I leave and says to come back with what I took. He thinks I took money from a drawer of his. He said he wasn't asleep and was listening to everything I was doing. I swear I didn't, but no one believes me. How do I make everyone believe me that I really didn't do it?

She emails my husband often and says horrible things about me to him and encourages him to get rid of me. Now I have had only 5 contacts with this woman in my life and her behavior is so insulting and disruptive I had to ask her to leave my home...well now she calls several times a day to talk to my husband and emails him constantly. I am a very hard working and good person and to see this behavior is really unsettling...she is an in-law from hell. My husband has told her to stop and he has even broken contact with her because of it...what should I do?

Well we have never been close since there is a 13 year age gap between us, I find it very difficult to talk to her about ANYTHING! she doesn't live with me but comes to the family home often, the trouble is she doesn't come to chat to us she comes and just sits there staring at the walls or on the phone. I have pulled her on it many times and she just changes the subject so I told her she was ignorant if she wants to stare at walls do that in your own home.

She is always telling me things and then saying I cant tell anyone and makes me uncomfortable around the people I cant tell espicially when they ask about her, I told her if its a secret then don't tell me either because its not nice lying to my other siblings.

This isn't even the half of it but hopefully you get the jist

I have tried talking to her but it goes in one ear and out the other, and it has got to the point where looking at her boils my blood.

Any suggestions what I can try next?

Even my dad is like "No, you're not wearing that!" I mean, he lives in a totally different state and I hardly ever see hm. Why does he even try to control my life?

And then my mom tries to make me "socialize" with ancient Christians. Even though she knows that every time she forces me to go to church, she's making the chance that I'll ever be a Christian smaller and smaller.

What should I do?? I'm 14 right now..

Lol my question sounds stupid but plz read :( So about a month ago i asked my dad if i could cange service providers, since he did give me the option. Even after a week he still said no. This was just so i could get the iphone- this is the uk one im talking about! Then my brother recently started to ask for the iphone, for xmas. My dad doesnt like the idea, but my mom doesnt mind buying it for him. The thing that aggravates me the most is that I said i would pay for it, and they were like hmm. i dont know. but with my brother, my mom is just going to buy it for him like a zombie. I feel really frustrated since I am always helping around the house, getting gd grades being responsible ect. My brother is kinda the opposite. He gets okayish grades, barley ever home, and often gets in fights with either one of my parents. Lastly, I always felt that my dad favoured me more, and my mom favoured my brother more. But my mom told me flat out that she thinks I am the better child! wats going on?!
