Family - December 2007

We have a small vacation house that we talked about moving to this summer before my junior year. we decided not to because i as well as my two younger brothers were worried about dad not being around as much. (my dad will stay in our old town where he owns a business about 3 days every week then drive to the new house, eventually he will sell his business). i really really want to move now and ive told my mom. me and my brother dont really like our schools. my youngest brother is even homeschooled bc there r no good schools for him. this new town has lots more to do and will offer us more opportunity i think. i just REALLY want to move and i think our family would be happier =[
how do i influence my parents to do this at this school years half way point?
please help.
ive told my mom and she just jokes and says "just finish out high school here" but i dont want to i hate my school im just not happy any more.

This year we're literally living on pinto beans. We make $1000 too much to apply for any welfare. I have a two-year-old daughter and a loving husband, but we just can't afford presents this year. I know my mother-in-law is going to have a duck-dying fit that she doesn't get a present this year. What should I do?

Ok, so the other day my stupid retard friend came over and he had a condom that he said he found in his parents room, so he opened it and started acting stupid like putting it on his arm and stiff. Then I was yelling at him and telling him to put it somewhere before my parents came in and saw it and he put the condom and the wrapper in this little drawer thing i have. I kinda forgot about it. So then, the other day i opened my drawr and it fell out and my dad walked in and was talking to me but he stayed outside the door and then he kinda looked at the floor and made a weird face and walked out. Do you think he saw that? The wrapper was face down so the title wasnt showing. Grrr, if he brings it up what should I say? Maybe i Should get some clear plastic wrap and put it where the condom was and get a tootsie pop wrapper and put it upside down where the wrapper is and get him to come in my room and if he looks at it again he will just realize its plastic wrap and a tootsie pop wrapper.

The girl was so scared she locked all her doors and windows. She made sure her room was secured. She wasn't sure if it was a joke or for real. She didn't know when he was going to come. The girl was so frightened she decided to sleep with her little sister. The girl dozed off quickly.

Then she heard a knock on the window. The girl slowly walked to the window. It started knocking louder. The girl looked through the windows and saw nothing... just some of the tree branches. The girl went back to bed with her sister. The bed was wet and had a pretty horrid smell. Maybe her sister wet the bed... the girl checked and found blood everywhere. The girl panicked. She didn't know what to do. She ran and hid in the closet in case the killer was there for her. While looking through the cracks of the closet the girl saw a shadow. It was dark, so she couldn't figure out who it was. She started to get more frightened. The shadow crept closer to the closet. The girl closed her eyes as if it was a dream. Then suddenly he opened the closet door and pulled her out.

Her parents found her dead the next morning. She was completely skinned and hanging in her sister's closet. The younger sister was also found skinned and dead.

PART 2...

Two years after the Smith sisters deaths, the parents had a baby boy. The girl's room became a guest room and the little sister's room where the murder took place became the baby's room. The baby grew up to be a successful kid.

One night he was on the computer and received an instant message.


h0tNsPiCy91: Hey lil bro!!!


2seXay4u: Who the eff is this?


h0tNsPiCy91: It's your big sis.


2seXay4u: I never had a sister. I'm an only child.


2seXay4u: This is some kinda joke, huh?


h0tNsPiCy91: Mom and dad never told you?


h0tNsPiCy91: I died 15 years ago with your other older sister.


h0tNsPiCy91: We were murdered in your room which was once my little sister's room. She was killed in bed when I was sleeping. I was killed in the closet and skinned to death.


2seXay4u: Quit lying. I never had a sister. If I did my parents would have told me. Whatever. Your stupid.


h0tNsPiCy91: You don't believe me? Well if you wanna look in your closet floor.


h0tNsPiCy91: I carved my name and the time and date I was being murdered. Then I carved my little sister's name.


h0tNsPiCy91: If you don't believe me little brother check the internet. Google on ''Smith sisters murdered anonymously''.


h0tNsPiCy91: I gtg little brother. I love you and mom and dad soo much. I can't believe they kept us a secret from you.



The boy checked the closet. He saw the carvings. Was it true? He surfed the internet and information was there about the anonymous murder in the house. The next morning the boy went downstairs. It was so quiet. Maybe his parents were sleeping. Hours later the boy found
parents in their closet skinned and hanged. Then he found more carvings on the ground. They said ''I TOLD YOU I WASN'T LYING LITTLE BROTHER, I LOVED MOM AND DAD.... BUT THEY KEPT ME A SECRET. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. WELL I'M FREE FROM THIS COLD WORLD, I WON'T HURT YOU LIKE I HURT THEM. I LOVE YOU!"

I have a cousin who lives in L.A., we seldom see each other except when SHE comes to visit ME (last time was about 4-5 years ago), and we rarely talk on the phone(maybe once every 2yrs.) and never chat, email or generally stay in touch. But, when she has come here for the summer, etc. she has a good time and -tiresome as attending relatives can be- so do I, I guess that's why she considers my city and home as a primo vacation spot (and no, I don't live in Vegas).
Thing is, she called me last week, extremely out of the blue (as I said before, after 4-5 yrs) and ANNOUNCES that she's coming down to spend the holidays with me since she got vacation from college so it's very convenient FOR HER.
Usually it would just be a "Oh crap!" moment for me and generally an annoyance, but apart from that it would be no biggie. But this Xmas and New Year's is different...(please read on)

They've always had little petty arguments, but it seems like as my brother and I have gotten older, its gotten worse. There has never been any physical abuse, because both of my parents really are good people. I am a very sensitive person, so I usually end up crying when they fight. I am 17 years old now, so this is a little embarrasing to admit. Most of the arguments start out small, like today they started arguing over who sually vaccuums up the needles from the Christmas tree. Then it turned into this huge yelling match.
I know that when they were younger they loved each other a lot. I think they still do, or maybe thats just me being too hopeful. After each argument my mother usually comes into my room and apologizes for fighting in front of my brother and I. But I've only seen my dad apologize a few times.
Also, my dad has a problem with contradicting himself. H will say something hurtful during an argument and the later deny that he ever said it.
What should I do?

My dad is a drunk and a chauvinist, my mom was an orphan that has become obsessed with money. She is a narcissistic who believes that she deserves it all. I have 11 brothers and sisters. My brothers are like my father and my sisters are mean and evil spirited. I decided to move to a new area away from them but then it seems that everyone everywhere is the same nowadays.

I'm asking this here because I'm afraid I can't get a clear view on it because I'm in the middle of it all.

My family has always had very... twisted views of christianity in general. They were even questioned by the church they go to for their strange form of beliefs. If that church knew half of the things they tell their kids (for example: daddy is God's messenger, thus he can do whatever he wants to you), they'd ban them.

WELL. Thank goodness I got away from that and went about living my life, 2,000 miles away in Canada with my husband.


The issue at hand:
They treated me with respect and overwhelming sweetness since the wedding in May - despite my extremely different religious beliefs. I thought things were good.
Yesturday, one of them (a cousin) accused me of being a devil-worshipper due to my difference of beliefs - I could take that, however she told a heavy load of lies to the rest of the family, saying I used ouija boards, and took part in satanic rituals. Now, instead of

I'm an agnostic, my daughter's father (we are divorced) is an atheist. He is dead-set against our daughter ever believing in any sort of higher power. As an agnostic, I'm pretty open-minded and don't mind our daughter at least being aware of what others believe.

That being said, my parents are Christian - my father a devout Catholic, my mother a converted Catholic who started out as a staunch Methodist. I respect their beliefs, but what to do when they're trying to force them on my daughter? Two Christmas gifts they've already given my daughter are a book about the Nativity and a Noah's Ark toy. This isn't the first time they've done something like this. And I know her father is going to insist they don't see her anymore, as they're telling her things in direct conflict with what he's telling her (there is no God, Jesus never existed, the Bible is a fairy tale, etc.)

Any suggestions as to how to handle the entire situation? Thank you all in advance.

This is an very tricky dilemma & i hope someone can advise! My brother wants to visit me ( im overseas) with his family for a week in february. ME - live with boyfriend in a lovely house - its nice ONLY because it has to be representative for our work (we are not flashy ) - we run a business each from home. Visitors come 9am - 8pm most days & we work from 8am till 1am every day . My brother & wife allow kids to be 'free' ie run riot. On previous 3 visits kids nearly burnt the house down / were caught stealing & had a bad accident due to carlessness! They let our dogs into street who they were nearly killed & as a family they are oblivious to the chaos around them. I currently have a kitten who is a house cat - i know it will get out if they come - the kids mess with our computers - they all ignore our wishes / rules.

SO HOW DO I SAY VISIT ALONE AND DONT BRING THE WIFE OR KIDS DIPLOMATICALLY !
What can we do = we dont have TIME let alone energy for this crazyness :(

So, to my question... recently my niece (18 years old) has talke to me and mentioned very casually that she is going back to school (she had dropped out of highschool about 6 months ago and has not been going to school ever since as far as I know).....so she also mentioned that she only goes to school about 3 days a week and each day is about 2 and half hours........ What type of school is this? Being her uncle, I'm just concerned... What type of program is this? I never heard of a highschool that has their students come in for 3 days a week for 2 and half hours each day.... Please any knowledge is greatly appreciated... Thank you in advance.

This is why I come home from college as little as possible. My mom, of course, is never the bad one, always the victim. She yells and screams and cusses, etc. Constant bickering, usually at least one big fight a week. I'm tired of it, I can't deal with it. My brother seems to easily blow it off and not let it get to him when he's home but I dunno how he does it. I wish I could be like that. I'm 23 years old and it STILL upsets me. I've tried to talk to both my parents about it. My dad says he'll try to change but doesn't. He's even tried counseling but I guess it hasn't worked. My mom asserts that she's the victim and my dad's horrible and that her yelling and stuff is how she deals with his issues. I just can't deal with it anymore. Even if I go to grad school, I won't have to come home as much, so this is technically my last 3-week school break to have to spend at home, but I don't want ANOTHER miserable holiday season. How can I deal with it?
