Family - November 2007

my parents are being buggers
for christmas i was going to ask for components for my pc(around £70 pounds worth) but then i thought to myself why bother it'll be obsolete in 6 months anyway
i i decide ill ask for a psp sorted...

my parents were quite happy geting the pc components

then i ask instead for the psp and i get told youve gota choise get a psp or put £200 in a savings account fair u might say
then they put me on the guilt trip about how 200 ponds saved is better and in a couple of years ill need a car

First off let me state that I do like my in-laws. They're okay. Through my entire pregnancy my parents were totally supportive of me and helped us out financially and gave us support. If I ever need my parents to watch my daughter they'll drive 170 miles just to get her. They buy all of her food, diapers, clothes and mostly her toys for us. So, yes they spoil her and help us out a lot.

My In-laws don't do squat and they live across the street. They never ask to see the baby and when we take her over to see them, they are too busy (going out to eat, party, etc.) but they get upset if they want to see her and she's at my parent's. My parents see her two weekends a month.

My husband has become angry with his family ignoring the baby since her birth and they think it's because of me. I don't even say anything to him about it. We're both just tired of them being grandparents at their own conveniance. (Continued)

Holiday's are coming up, and I honestly have no idea what to get my Father. He has everything he wants. I don't have a ton of $$ to spend. UGH, Maybe I should just get gift cards again :(

My husband and her do not get along. He says it is because I am to leniant and she says it is because he is to strict. We fight about it constantly, it has become extremly dysfunctional. I found her things packed in her bedroom today to go to her dads after school. What should I do? I feel like I am caught in the middle. Do I leave my husband in hopes to make my daughter happy, or do I let my daughter stay with her dad in hopes to make the family happy? Her sister is 13 and wants to stay with me. My 13 yr old has got to the point where she doesnt care if the 15 yr old stays here with us or goes to live with their dad. I understand we all have ALOT of issues. Should I leave my husband or let my daughter go to her dads?

She is always upset over anything. Find faults with my husband & chews him off when she is in a bad mood. Accusing & blaming, gets into fizzy fits etc ... demanding, unreasonable.

Her suggestions are plentiful & incessant. She either flat-out commands me to do things her way, or she pretends to be nonchalant about whether or not she is trying to pressure me, but I still feel her push. She tries to dominate my household. She is oblivious to the fact that her backbiting is unwelcome & hazardous.

I can never comprehend her bad-mouthing us to her friends when we hv always tried to meet her deeds, of couse we dont acceed to her all her demands. I can never be good enough, she expects me to be like her, uneducated, only cries when H gets angry & my job is to serve my H fr head to to toe.

I keep attempting to bond with her & her rejection is demoralizing. We hv done whatever we cld to please her (in vain), but i am giving up so as not to get frustrated.

Need advice

My mil once told me that her daughter hair was longer than mines. I am Black mixed with Indian. I have really long hair. My sil hair is not even the same as mines. Which is the truth. Me and my sil look nothing alike at all. Everything about us is different. Why would a mother compare her daughter- in-law's hair to her own daughter. This is insane.I could never do this. This is very mean and childish. Do you think she wishes that her daughter was as prettier as me. And that she could have beautiful skin and hair. On my sil side of the family, she told me that her dad's side there was white and Indian put together. The thing is my sil does not look nothing like an Indian. I am tired of being the black sheep in the family. I believe that I am hated on because of my good looks. Why is my mil trying to destroy me with her nasty put downs?

My boyfriend of ten years has an 11 year-old son. The mother didn't put him on the birth certificate and refuses to let him see him, unless it's on her terms. We do live in different states, but we paid for the travel the two times we have gotten him. What can be done to get visitation? Does my boyfriend have any rights to his son? Also, before he can come see us this time, there has to be a document drawn up and notarized saying that she has full custody of their son. Can she legally do this considering custody was never awarded? We got a blood test last time we had him to prove that they are father and son. Any help, please?

Im just wondering if anyone else is in a similiar situation.. my now husband and i were talking about getting married, clearing debt, buying a house and having a baby! We were very excited about getting our lives on track and cleaning up our act! Well we got an unexpected surprise! We were pregnant, we were very happy but when we realized just how much debt my hubby had we were very very scared. I have no credit and he has horrible credit! He still owes from school (which he never even used his degree!) We are renting now and we struggle from time to time but we are doing ok. I want to buy a house and have another baby in the next 5 years but im terrified we will never be able to. He is a carpet installer which means every other season he has very little work=very little money. And i am a stay at home mom and i work 2 nights a week as a waitress. because of his schedule thats all i can do.Have any of you ever been in this type of situation? And did you ever buy a house?

Lately my sister acting like a right old b*tch and i just cant stand her at times,
shes so moody,she graduated from university on july and ever since shes been stuck at home looking for a job,i think shes depressed or something,
but that doesn't mean she needs to make me feel so low ,we always have fights and end up pulling each others hair out or scratching each other,

and the worst thing is i have to share a room with that cow,and she acts like a kid when she older then me (i am the youngest)

and i don't want to talk to her about it because we'd end up having an argument,my parents don't help either,they say that i should just ignore her behavior because shes got nothing better to do,

i know i can be annoying at times when i don't realise it but since shes the older one shouldn't she just ignore it or something, rather then jumping down my throat?!!

what should i do?

I am a single mom of a 6 year old boy. We moved out to the east coast 2 years ago and its just us- no other family. Since I am working some longer hours and he shuffles from school to daycare to home with a babysitter. Is it ok for me to get him a cell phone? I am thinking its a good way for me to be in touch with him as well as having our family back home being able to reach him without having to go through me or wait until I get home. I also figure this might give him incentive to talk to the family more on "his" phone more since he hates doing it from mine.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

When a male hits his girlfriend people say she has every right to hit him back but when a woman hits her boyfriend in the face first people only think of the female even if she's in the wrong. I feel he has every right just like her to slap his girlfriend right back.

A friendly, but not supportive father. He is 'concerned' alot for my choices... which are not abnormal at all. He will comment until I am feeling second guessing myself. He seems content with our relationship, but it drags me down. In the past I have brought it up and I feel that I am causes problems in the relationship whenver I bring it up. I have not said anything for a year or so.Than I decided that I would not tolerate him dragging me down anymore.I told him that I will tell him off any time that he makes a comment that is not supportive. I told him in an email as emotional topics are 'just not talked about'. He was abusive when I was a child. He is not anymore, but I am sensitive to him now. So he has to stop questioning my decisions. I told him I was angry with him. He was confused as he thought he was just being 'open' with me. And I felt like a heel for saying anything. Should I have just not said anything?

He does not listen but he is very smart. He knows what he does is bad and that he will get in trouble. So things he does is gets in the fridge and breaks all the eggs, pours drinks in the sink and he might ask me for chocolate milk and I say no so he gets the syrup out and pours it on the floor. He puts rolls of TP in the toilet, puts toothpast in the toilet or where ever, breaks stuff on purpose, ect. What can I do?
