- What would you do if your son told you he was gay?

- What would you do if you came home and found your son making out with another boy (before he came out to you)?

- What would you do if you came home and found your son cuddling with another boy (before he came out to you)?

and last but not least...

- What would you do if you came home and found your son making love to another boy (before he came out to you)?

I recently found out my girlfriend is a crystal meth addict. So I called her father as I figured the family needed to know that she is destroying herself.

He didn't believe me, and accused me of making it up, being a druggie myself and told me if I called him again he would call the police on me for harrassment.

Is there anything left for me to do?

Parents should teach their children their ideas of right and wrong and give children some sort of moral foundation. Of course, as children become teenagers and adults we begin to learn that mother and father do not always know best. Our parents like everyone else are fallible.

Many claim that the behavior of a teenager or even an adult is a reflection of what kind of moral foundation the parents gave, but is this true? I'd be a different person if I took everything my parents said as truth.

I'm so sick of my parents thinking that they can control my life in every way they want to. All summer they were telling me to get a job because I was too old to sit around the house and enjoy my summer. Now they are telling me that I am working too much and they are calling my management trying to change my hours without even coming to me first. That is ridiculous. They control how much time I spend on the internet, what I can watch, and just every part of my life is controlled by them. They have ruined my life by trying to make it better in there own eyes. I just wish they would leave me alone and let me do my own thing. I think they forget that I can move out of the house in less then a year. I am seventeen, not some little five year old in preschool. Why can they not just treat me my age and let me live my life the way I want to.

Ok so I have lived with my older brother (legal guardian) for the last 2 years, he is turning 20 and we finally decided that he should go to college. (I am 16) My aunt offered me to move in with her the only problem is that she lives far away from my current school. I like my school and am a pseo student so I go to college during the day. My friend also offered me to move in with her and her mom. Would this be rude to move in with my friend? I think that her mom would become my legal guardian. I have known this family for a while, I wouldn't have to pay rent (they want me to save up for college like her daughter alex) Alex and I are real close, but we would have to share a room (I think we can handle it) And I think that it is a good idea... but would this be appropriate or should I give up my free college opportunity to live with a relative?

So christmas is upon us, and my family is of course having the typical gatherings! I have an aunt who hates my guts! She will be at two of these gatherings. I always try to be mature and not let her bother me, but she comes and starts hurling insults at me! She tells that i am useless and a piece of trash. (she is such a religious person! lol! or trys to act that way)
Well she cant stand me because I told on her son who molested me for years! She cannot accept the fact that he did this to me. He has moved out of state and no one hears from him! Well I want to see all of my family but I am now 4 months pregnant and tired of her crap! What should I do! I want to see my family but not her! What to do?

My dad lovveesss internet poker, and loves internet billiards.
It used to be that he would win, lose, win lose, and he wouldn't care *too much* about it. However, this past year it's been getting worse and worse with his temper.
For example, if someone wins a hand where he thought he was sure to, he'd burst out cussing and hit the table with his hand. This is getting more frequent, and once he even punched the laptop, causing the screen to crack in half and had to get a new one.
Sometimes I'm terrified that he's gonna accidentally hit one of us if we talk to him right after he loses a hand. I asked him once about a college i was considering and he starting swearing off a line of colorful words, telling me to leave him alone.

Idk. This isn't really a question. More like a rant. So just bear with me. Ha.

Hey. So, obviously its Christmas time. And last year, in my first year of middle school, I made a bunch of unforgettable friends. I wanted to get them all small presents, like earrings, hair bands, candy canes, and lip-gloss. Just to show I care (major sale on the earrings, they weren’t expensive) and my moms being so horrible about it!! I’ve saved up more than a couple thousand dollars in birthday, Christmas, Easter, etc. money. Its ALL MINE but she’s acting like such a, dare I say it, *****. I just wanted to get them small things. They're my friends! I wouldn’t be here without them; I would have run away by now. And my mom shook her head and I was like "What?" and she's like "Well, you're turning out like Sheila (my aunt, her sister) she used to spend a fortune (what I’m spending isn’t a fortune!) on other people." Normally, I would find that a compliment, seeing as it says I’m generous, but my aunt lived with her mom for like 45 years, got fired from a crappy job, and can’t quit smoking. And I was like “Thanks mom, you’re telling me I’m going to grow up like her ( I mentioned all the stuff about the job, smoking, etc.) and my mom was like “Well you are.” She’s so horrible. I just want to be nice to people, make them happy. Its MY money I want to spend, NOT HERS. That money is from all the years of birthdays I gave up my presents by saving money in the bank. I don’t understand. I just want to make this holiday special for the people I care about.

She came over to our apartment to visit him while I was out for the day and later the next day he mentioned that she had watered my ficus because it was dry. I told him that I had rescued it from my mother who was overwatering it and that it has been doing just fine on my watering schedule for over a year. It's leaves fall off and the soil gets a mold on it if it gets too much water. He said that she use to have ficuses and knows what she is doing, but that was when she lived in the desert and she has now moved to a much different climate and has killed a few of her own plants I might add.
I don't mean to sound like a psycho plant owner or someone who wants to create drama but she is (in my opinion) very overbearing and tries to take over in my house. When she first moved here she turned up the chill in my fridge and everything froze. Our food hadn't been spoiling, she just always thinks she knows better than me. I need feedback, good or bad. Advice, you can even insult me just say it

I have been housing a family of 4 for the last 4 years. I was okay at the beginning but now I want my space. Now, they have invited a lady with a child to move in as well. They have been like a family and I have been extremely patient. They began building a house which they have mentioned it is ready for them to move in. Their problem now is that they opened a business and they are again struggling financially. They were discussing renting their new home to help themselves financially. I am about to explode.

2) Steals Car payments from her daughter and forces her daughter to pay for the fees and back payments.

My husband and I are in the U.S.He's the elder of two sons. We got married few months back, love each other a lot but some of his actions annoy me.He calls his parents twice everyday and update them on what we do and where we go. Its very irritating.On top of it, he expects me to talk with them once in two days.Although we discuss about what we want to do, they seem to have a big influence on him. They really put emotional stress on him. For eg,we want to buy a house in U.S but they always create a scene that we won't come back and we'll settle there. They seem to be considered and consulted with all we do.I also have brother and feel nice when my brother calls home and spends time with us but my parents always gave the lead role to the individual while standing by us. But my in-laws demand to know everything from us and they sometimes draw the bottom line also which my husband has no other go but accept at the end or else they create a big drama. This is making my anger grow inside

My husbands parents have 3 children.

My husband and I have supported ourselves through study and working to buy a house, which we are very proud of as neither of us had help from our parents.
Now I am a nurse and he is a tradesman.

His younger sister, who we are very close with, her and her partner chose to have a baby when she was 20, he is now 2 and just beautiful.

Here is my problem. And before I start its not so much about the money, its that my husband notices that his parents do these things and he is upset, and he normally is very laid back.

his paernts buy his sister all things, an oven, a freezer, a microwave, they have helped them do their back yard landscaping, they are always giving them money to pay bills/ mortgage as they fall behind.

My husband and I get none of this support. We both work very hard to make sure our mortgage gets paid, but it means we don't have any spare money left, we just scrape by.

I think it is so wrong that his parents do this.

I may not spend 2 hours at the grocery store, but I will occasionally catch myself reading a can of beans for too long.
It takes me a very long time to pick out a birthday (or other occasion) card. I shake my head at someone who gets my carpet wet with snow on their shoes. Stupid things like that.

My daughter is going through a hard time recently - she found out her boyfriend of 2 years and Father to her baby was cheating on her with 3 different women!

At first she decided to get him out of her life and she seemed ok...then he did an emotional blackmail suicide attempt and it looks like she has taken him back

Thing is I recently met a really nice guy after being single for a while ( and picky! lol )

But instead of being happy for me my daughter has been ringing me every day and having a go at me - calling my new boyfriend names and saying that I have ruined Christmas!!!

I am due to go to hers for the Christmas period but she now says she doesn't want me too......and the way she has been having a go at me lately I'm not sure if it will be a good time either!!!

I want to show her that I am there for her but I have my own life too...and that not all men are b*stards!.....but it does not seem to be working

I don't want to be her emotional punchbag either.. it hurts
