My brother is really mean. My parents keep telling me to ignore him but I just can't. He makes fun of me with his friends and everybody laughs. I feel like they are ganging up on me. He keeps cussing at me. He makes me cry. He calls me a snitch. A bi***, a fat a**, and other remarks. When I talks to him he mocks me. Like my earlier ? I have family problems and I needed somebody to talk to. When I started crying in front of him and telling me how I felt he called me an motional brat an hit me. That is another reason my holidays got ruined. Then my brothers friend slept over and they are hitting me and making fun of me. Even though my brother is in college he still has breaks. He insults me online and when he comes home. He gets angry when I cry, talk, and come in front of him. I cant even talk to my friends because they went to other places. My dad isn't even here.My mom tries stopping him but it doesnt work. I dont know how to handle this.He makes me feel miserable in fron of everyone.

I lost my 18 month old daughter and my husband 5 years ago. They drowned. She fell in, he jumped in after her and I can't swim so I ran for help but I don't speak Spanish and the help arrived too late.

Anyway I haven't worked since that day and my sister is also on benefits but in her case it is because she has 5 children by 5 different men and is a drug addict and alcoholic.

She keeps telling me to 'get over it' but it isn't that easy. I'm never going to forget my beautiful daughter or wonderful husband and I resent that she is telling me how to live my life.

In truth, I do wish that I could get better but I resent the fact that she is telling me what to do when she doesn't even care about the fact that she is on benefits. I want to have a proper life. I want to get married and have another baby, I don't want to be on benefits.

I want to get an office job and to learn how to type and use email and stuff like that.

I just don't know where to start?

I am having a little bit of a sad-for-myself moment here... what I want to know is, is your life worse than mine? My mother is chronically depressed and attempted suicide last May. My father has anger manegment and his entire family was abused by his father (my grandpa, died before I was born) so now he yells all the time. About four years ago, my family started having problems; arguements, debt and loss of money, and abuse between my parents. I also heard that, while my brother, sister, and I were gone, they did drugs. My mom also smoked breifly and was an alcohalic. About last year, my mom moved into another house and they became officially divorced. Now my dad is dating some one and going on a cruise with her in January... anyway, I'm just feeling really sorry for myself right now and I was wondering if any of you out there had things worse than I do. Maybe it will put things in perspective for me or something. Thanks for answering!! I appreciate it and no, I'm not lying.

What's wrong with kindly telling a young 6 yr old boy to not drum on and rub a 11month old baby's head because you think the head's still soft? Why did I need to get my leg whacked by his stepfather?

Whenever I do a poor job at washing the dishes, my mother curses at me in front of my four year old little sister. Was there a certain point on why she wasn't even concerning about the child's language and future? She keeps a stack of Playboy magazines on the bottom book-shelf. Easy enough for a child to reach for. Is she MAD? What do you think? And also, I have no certain idea why those were there. My mother also divorced my beloved father. I loved him! What was she thinking?! There were no industrial problems, no relationship problems, and yet, she divorced him. I need advice, I'm too worried of the circumstances to talk to her about this.

my brother is out of control; he's tearing my family apart. he's 14...he only has one friend who he's known for about 5 or 6 years. the only time they hang out is when they go to his friend's dad's house every other weekend & i'm surprised his friend still puts up with him, my brother is really mean to him and tries to boss him around all the time & yells at him. he's never had a girlfriend, & all he does is sit around all day on xbox live talking to a bunch of random people he's never even met. he cannot go more than 30 seconds without screaming or cussing. already today, on christmas, he called me a G D f***ing b****. everything was fine until he got home today. as soon as he got here, he opened his presents & stared pitching a fit b/c it wasnt what he wanted. he never said thank you or anything. he claims to be atheist yet still expects to get presents for christmas & that alone bothers me... he didnt used to be like this, what can i do to turn things around?

When a family gathering happens, everyone talks about how they bought this, we went on this trip or how much $$$$ they spend. I don't make much $$ only enough to pay the bills with nothing left over to do any fun. They ask me what I have done and my reply is i work all the time just to pay the bills. They end up snubbing me off, I end up leaving and going home in tears. I feel i can't show up unless i have a million dollar check to throw on the table to join the conversation.

Those of you that grew up in a large family: did you have alot of one on one time with Mom and Dad? If so, do you think that this effected your interpersonal skills as you were growing up? Did you have to fight to be noticed? Did you feel like the lack of direct conversation with your parents made it harder to communicate with other people in life? Should parents in large families spend time individually with their kids, or would that create jealousy?

(Why am I asking this? To better understand the relationship my wife has with people due to her isolation as a child as part of a huge family.)

I feel like even if I wanted kids, I don't because I feel like they would never be treated fairly by my sister & brother in laws and that it would be especially previlant during X-mas because of presents, etc. Therefore, among other reasons, we have chosen not to have kids. I don't want to bring a child into this world to be treated like a blacksheep, but part of me feels like I shouldn't let other control me this much. What do you think? It just kills me that I KNOW my SIL/BIL and ILs would never treat my kids the way they treat theirs. I would never want my kids to feel that hurt.

My nephew (by marriage) is really annoying. He's 7, almost 8, and can do NO WRONG in my in-laws or SIL/BIL's eyes. They think they child is so "cute" and "funny" why he says things like "Why are you fat" and "I'm rich and your poor", when in fact their family is not doing well financially at all. This little boy will add up the amount of Xmas presents and ask why people didn't buy him more. I don't mind my nephew's parents, or my in-laws, just when it comes to him. I have very hard time handling him and refuse to babysit or do any favors because of the way this child acts. My husband doesn't think we should say anything to the parents because they HAVE to know how annoying he is. I would think so too, but you never know. What would you do? This kid is like nails on a chaulk board to me.

I would rather be alone and actually enjoy my day off then waste my whole day going to my family- esp. my brothers
who don't give a crap about anyone but themselves and then
they are stupid enough to ask what you're up to and all the dirt
and the reality is you don't even talk to them the rest of the year
and they really live in their own world- so what's the point???
Why act like you're all close when then reality is- its just
a chirade for the day? The truth is when problems come up
they're not there for me. Only I am. So I say screw em-
they're worthless - and I can do just fine on my own.
But if they ever need me- God help em- because i sure won't

My mother inlaw is staying with us for the holidays and i am so tired of the same questions. Example one I don't wear house shoes/ slippers. I never have they make my feet hot. She ask me and chasties me every time she is over here "Where are your shoes" Then i drink very rarely i have not drank anything since last Christmas. I bought a six pack of beer and can't even drink ir now because i have a cold and i am taking over the counter meds. Well whenever i drink i get the 1st degree how often do you drink what do you like to drink etc. Then finally i am lactose in toloerant and i drink Soy milk. Every time she sees me with a glass she ask why don't you drink milk.
I just want to scream FOR THE LAST AND FINAL TIME I CAN'T DRINK MILK
She is not that old and she can remeber lots of other small things. I think she ask these questions just to talk and fill up the quiet.

the comedian from tv? She doesn't even get his jokes, she just sees a guy with funny hair running around, and I think the only reason she laughs is because she sees by friends laughing and copies them (these are my guy friends laughing, not me- I mean, let's face it, the dude is NOT funny). When I tuck her in at night she cries if I tell her she cannot marry Carrot Top, and to be honest, with all the things she sees and does in the course of the day, I can't for the life of me figure out why this one person's silly antics stays in her little mind?!

How do every american & english person feels while he is enjoying his holiday with his family and having fun while milions of ppl r left homeless or lost their families in Iraq & Afganistan cause of u & ur countries .
Yes ,everyone of u is responsible by a way or onother,
its u ppl who elected those zionists to rule ur country & use ur army & ur taxmoney to do all those crimes,u allowed them to lie to u,u all live in countries where citizens should & can make a difference,but u did nothing at all.
Of course their is some exceptions who tried to do anything even by demonstrating & i realy respect those ppl,but the majority did nothing to stop that.
So r u enjoying ur Holiday??!!!

P.S.I was going to direct the same Q to the israelis,but i found it not worthy cause they r all terrorists & boutchers who have no feelings at all.

A week ago my dad had passed on & been muslim we did all things that were needed. I am the youngest of three sisters. My one sister has returned from Hajj today.

Thing is they been getting people to chat to & everything. I have been the one answering calls,opening & closing door & helping out in the kitchen because nobody else would do it & they did not know where things are in the kitchen. At this moment my dads brother is sitting with my older two sisters & chatting. I got told that they chatting & hinted to move away. Like I have no emotion. I may not be showing it due to been busy & doing everyones work.

THe uncle that I am closest too,I had asked him to chat & had waited for him. Just for him to tell me that he was leaving to go home & that. HE seen that I wanted to cry. Than he texted me in the car saying he will call when he gets home so told him to leave it it would not matter.

WHy is it that I am been left out to do this on my own right now? Or it seems that way

I am really close with his family, infact closer with them that my own so i spent some time with them this christmas eve when he wasnt around and now i feel like i have lost them, lost him, my own parents told me to stay at a freakin womens shelter tonight (my parents suck) and I feel so alone. we shared a car which he took, i have no money and no job because it is seasonal. this is the most upsetting thing ever. i am all alone in our apartment that we shared by myself on christmas eve, alone and sad and wondering what the heck happened and most importanly what is my next move because right now I don't seem to have any options. Is there anyone out there in this big world that has any advice???

They are just being too horrible. I'm glad to finally move out. But the problem is... how will I be able to fund for college? I'm down with the community colleges... but what should I be aware of as an independent? Taxes, insurance, sss, apt... and all that? How do I go about it?

Right now for housing, I'll stay with a friend of mine for a couple of mos until I can be more financially stable. Or I can just rent out a bed-spacer which is like 250$/mos [bed-spacer is a space,room, or bed you rent at someone's house].

For job, I'm a sales clerk at Forever 21 and Barnes&Noble. So far my average salary per week is 240-270$/wk. But if I'm going to attend night classes/college classes I'd be down at 140$/wk.

For transportation -- I have my bike? XD

I'm barely getting out of high school with a 3.8 GPA. Also, do you think it's a good idea for me to live with my bf?
