my grandmother who just died who was the real "link" between us and we weren't super close before she died.

I know I need to give him sometime to himself but how long?

Before my grandmother died, I would call every two weeks and talk to her, and go see her about once a month. How often should I try to spend time with him? How often should I call him if he's not much of a talker?

I was semi-close to him, just closer to my grandmother.

Help!

I've been a stay at home mom and a full-time student trying to get my prereqs done for nursing school. My fiance told me recently that he doesn't want to work on things anymore... refused to try counseling and said he's tired of arguing all the time. So, I have to leave.

My name is on the house we bought together... so I would not be able to qualify for housing assistance (I think). He can't get my name off the house because of the market dropping and our house not really even being worth what we paid for it a yr ago.

I feel like I have no alternative but to move home with my parents which is killing me. My mom has made it known numerous times that she doesn't want her kids moving home after they've left.

I could get a job but it wouldn't be enough to support myself in this area. It will take me 3 yrs to finish nursing school. I don't know what to do. I feel like a loser. I'm 30, no money and heartbroken.

Advice?

My uncle(who is 5 years older than me) lives in another country than me. Everytime my family visits his family, we have to end up picking on each other at least by the end of the week long vacation. Last year, I promised myself I would get on better relations with him, but he made a joke about me and then I had to fight back. I'm pretty sure we're both joking when we "fight" ,it's like a hate-love relationship in a way, but I just want to be normal friends with him -maybe even little jokes now and then about each other. Something always triggers it though, and we end up being "enemies",pulling pranks on eachother. How do I fix this without confronting him about it? Please help. I really want to be nicer to him. : /

They've always made fun of me for being too sensitive. It's gotten to the point where whenever I hear them walking towards me or they just knock on the door and start talking my heart starts beating faster because their manner of speaking is so frazzling. They've always been loud, stomped when cats got in their way, bossed me around because I'm the baby of the family. I really don't know how to tell them about they make me feel though. I've already asked them to maybe talk quieter but that wasn't effective because everyone else in my family is the same so it doesn't faze them.

Any thoughts on what I can do please?

i'm a senior in high school, and i'm applying to colleges. i have a huge deadline in a week, where three apps are due.

today, my mother woke me up and told me she was cleaning the garage and needed my help. i helped her for like an hour, but after that, i started telling her that i needed to work on my apps because of the deadline.

she got so mad! she started yelling about how i didn't love her because i wouldn't help her, and that even if i got into a college, i would flunk out and end up working in some low-salary job.

she started talking about how poorly i did in school [i've always done well in school, except for my junior year in hs because i took really hard courses] and how i never do any work [but i always clean the house and whenever she had a deadline for her schoolwork, i took over her responsibilities so she wouldn't have to worry].

should i apologize, or just ignore her? i'm scared that what she said about me never being successful will come true.

I getting all of the picutes from under her dresser [[hard to explain what her dresser is like]] and In the cabinet I found my presents. I didn't know what it was! Really! I was looking at them, just thinking it was some of my moms things, and i didn't relize what they where until i had looked at like half of them. Its really bad because I was just critisising my sister at dinner last night, because i brought up to my parents how she had been snooping for presents. I feel REALLY guilty! Should I tell my parents? Im afraid i'll get in trouble for looking. help!

My mother in law showed up at our house yesterday unannounced which is fine, she doesnt do it often and right away she started trouble with me. I believe its because we were on our way out and in her mind thought she would spend time with our son, which obviously wasnt going to happen as we were literally getting in the car, this set her off. She called me a druggie..not true.. my husband called her on this and she said she didnt know what drugs, then said I was fooling around on my husband, again not true to which my husband got upset about and then she proceeding to call me a whore and rip a cross that I was wearing on a necklace off my neck.
My question is...would you let your son around this woman even tho its his grandmother, my son is not very old but if she says these things to start trouble, not only to me, but infront of her son, my neighbours and infront of our son, does it not make you wonder what she would say to my child about me when I'm not around...whats your thoughts

My mother in law makes me very angry. I stay away from her as much as possible not because I hate her but because when I am around her I feel very upset at the things she says and does to me. Both my husband and I have talked with her about her behavior and how it hurts us but she refuses to stop. She is terribly critical, on top of always trying to tell me what to do and making rude comments she is like a broken record. My husband and I want me to be a SAHM, we do not like daycare for very small children, but she insists that I am not smart enough to teach and stimulate her as a daycare would. I have a chemistry degree, anthropolgy and library degree and I did well in school. I am no genius but I think I am bright enough and read to daughter and do educational things with her in the home. She insults just about everything about me and sometimes I border on hating her but she does have a few redeeming qualities so I really just find her a pest. I wish I knew what to do or say?

I know that some aspects of my life are their business as well as mine, but my mom especially seems to be controlling everything and every detail of my life (or trying to). I get grounded for weeks at a time, all for "having an attitude" where my younger sister is five times as bad and never gets grounded; I have been a dancer for eleven years (since I was three) and my parents told me that if I "mess up" one more time that I will be forced to quit. It's hard because majority of the time I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong; if my mom or dad yells at me I ALWAYS say okay, I'll do better next time, and I'm sorry but they think that has an attitude and they ground me and often slap me. My boyfriend thinks I need to move out, but I don't know where to go and I don't know if I've done everything that I possibly can with my parents. Help me? :(

So if a relative dies and you remember how bad this relative was. You remember how much they abused you as a child and how they planned to make your family suffer. Would you attend their funeral? Would it be wrong not to attend a bad relatives' funeral? What do you think?

Thanks

DH and I have an 8yr old son- he is a stepson to DH. DH and I have a 2yr old daughter. We have only been married 4 years and DH parents (his dad is his stepdad) have never wanted our son to call them anything other than their first names.
Our families have feuded for the last three years and they have just now started to get to know DD in the last 6 months. Our DD calls MIL- "Abuella" not by our doing but she did it on her own, courtesy of Dora the Explorer. MIL hates being called Abuella (we are not spanish in decent, nor is MIL) She called yesterday and said she wants DD to call her "mama nay" I politely told her that I don't like "mama" as part of the grandparent name. That is what DD calls me and it is seems very confusing.
She told me that was too bad because she and her two daughters (my SILS) want her to be called that when they have children and she doesn't want the children to have different names for her.
What is the best way to tell her no and let DD "name" her?
