I am a 14 year old boy, who at the age of 8 found out that my father was dating some one named Kathryn. My parents broke up when I was 6 months old, and my dad had always found someone new… for a year at a time. I eventually met this woman and she did seem nice. I recall my mother being upset that I would talk about how Kathryn and I would have so much fun. We would go to restaurants for lunch during the summer, she would play XBOX original with me, we would go to carnivals, we went and did a lot of fun things. My father was always either working late, or sleeping all week, so Kathryn and I would always spend more time together on the weeks that I was at my father’s house than I did with my father. Time went by and my father told me after taking me to race go carts that Kathryn was pregnant. At first, I thought I was on the show "Hi-jinks" where the parents prank their children on hidden camera, but then I grew to accept it. I had always wanted a sibling, but not one that was 9 years younger than me. This I kept to myself. After Kathryn had the baby, I started to notice my mother and my dad’s mother talking about how they heard that Kathryn was doing combinations of prescription drugs to get high and that how she had a history of this with her last husband who had O.D.ed years before this. I didn’t think it was true, but I didn’t think that my mother and grandmother would say such things without being sure about it. A year later, after my mother dropped me off at my father’s house, I noticed something strange about Kathryn as she was preparing food for my little brother, She was having trouble mixing the cheese into the easy mac, and she was talking funny. She looked like an old woman with the shivers, knocking everything over with almost no motor skills. She was on the pills again… She later on got caught buying the more illegal drugs and went to jail for a year or two. My father married her while she was in jail because they wouldn’t let him see her. She was released early because of my little brother and good behavior. Then everything started up again. There was constant screaming, fighting, and violence, so I decided to stay at Mom’s house until they straightened it out. Kathryn stole three years of me and my father’s time that we could have spent together. In fifth grade my father finally got divorced and i found out that I had another sibling. However, due to the economy, he couldn’t afford a babysitter and stayed in the same house with her. This brings us to about a year or two before now. In seventh grade Dad moved away from her, sold the house, bought her a new one, and promised me a life away from her. The kids went to daycare every day until CPS decided that she could see her children again. Dad was paying for the day care and had a job as CEO at an insurance claims adjustment company, so they were always at school on time even if he didn’t go to work. (By the way, I have been waking my father up every day for six years to take me to school.) However, Kathryn decided that she wanted to play teacher and home school the kids instead of taking them to the already payed for school, so their perfect attendance was ruined. It was problem after problem with this lady. Now she says that her house is infested with tiny bugs and that she feels needles pierce her skin constantly. We think she’s on drugs… again, and it doesn’t help that she’s a stripper. Everyone in the family agrees, except for Dad, who is in denial over her whole drug abuse issue. So now, despite what he told me before, and despite the fact that he knows that I am uncomfortable with being near her, she has practically moved in. Every time I come over and ask him to get her to leave he usually gets her out of the house for the week a few days late, but not this week. This week the story is "I don’t know where to tell her to go," and "I don’t know when she’s leaving," She has ruined the floors, let the children run wild, run the maid out of the house, twice, and she falls passes on the floor at 6 AM and sleeps until noon. She is convinced that she has Lyme’s disease, Fibromyalgia, and nasal cancer, but all of her results come back negative and the doctors tell Dad that she is doing drugs. I believe that she is doing drugs, and I don’t think that I can ever forgive her for bringing this into my life.

Okay so my dad got our family a Wii for christmas but he didn’t know what games to get with it, so he asked us which ones would be good. Honestly i have no clue about videos games and dont really play them to often.the only game i play is The Sims lol Im 15 and pretty girly- girl and i dont really like shooting games or anything like that. So what are some cool games? Oh and we already decieded were going to get Wii fit and Mario Carts.

Okay. So, I checked out The Host from my library at school. I won’t be able to read anything for read for awhile since my Dad will be sending Eclipse in a week or so to me. But, it might take a little long since he’s sending it Internationally here to the U.S. So, today, this morning, I went to my library and I saw The Host on the new books cart. I thought it was interesting since it was different from what Stephenie Meyer is known for, Twilight. So, I checked it out. Also because a lot of critics and other authors think The Host is good. But, some people thought the book wasn’t good. One girl thought it was stupid. I’m also hesitant on reading it because I’m not really into Science Fiction and because the book is meant for adults not young adults.

So, what I am asking is…should I read The Host?

Please give thought about this. I really want to know. But, please, NO SPOILERS.

Today I was at the store, and I saw a dad with his two step children. The younger one was in a cart, the older son, was messing around, doing what boys usually do. The dad accidentally hit his step son’s leg with the cart and the kid went "Oww… that hurts!". The dad said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t see you… I told you not to mess around (and nag some more). So suck it up and deal with it!" I just thought he was being mean to the kid, and felt like I should say something, but I know it wasn’t my place. After a while, I guess something else happened and he said, "Jeremy, you better cut it out or I’m gonna kick your ass all the way til we get out the store". I was like, wow, that’s no way to talk to a kid. My husband was there and he didn’t like that either, so it’s not just me being overly sensitive. The kid was probably about 6-7 only.

I think if I’m an older lady, like in my 60s, I’d have the guts to give him a piece of my mind at his parenting skills, but I’m only in my 20s so he’ll probably go, Yeah whatever. Would you have said or done something if you see this, or do you have an experience in this matter?
Daniel, there’s no need for that kind of talk on my question. I’d appreciate it if you can be a bit more courteous to users in YA, and I certainly hope you are teach your kids better than the way you act, because honestly, you are very RUDE.

Anyway, this guy is white, and the kids are AA, so… that’s obvious they’re his step kids.
And rest assured Daniel, I won’t be a bad parent, because I CAN’T have babies. So you don’t have to worry I will be a bad parent who let their kids do whatever they want. And even if I can, the first thing I’d teach them, is good manners.
Warrior, I KNOW when a kid is of mixed parentage. In this case, it was very clear to me that they weren’t. And you’re not answering my question at all, so thumbs down for you.

Ugh I am desperate to Talk Right now, I’m living at my parents I’m 20 years old. I just moved home recently to help my dad sell the house, he’s 60 and needs an extra hand. well I really am not a bad kid OR adult and I know that within my heart. That’s why i feel overwhelmed living here and I feel like I cart get anything accomplished for the goals I set for myself.this year. I mean I really can’t even get up in the morning cause I dread hearing the awful comparisons my dad will make on the morning and like. just all the nagging. he’s always been like this. but after graduating high school I felt a lot of guilt for the things I felt about him and felt like it was unjust,,, I wanted to you know.. have relationship w him. that’s why I moved bac. but now I’m the one who is getting affected… my confidence in myself has declined significantly and I can’t even get out of the bed. I really like hate existing right now lol to be dramatic. not suicidal or anything like that. I feelvlike I let myself down putting myself down by putting myself in this situation to be ridiculed by him. he’s an awful communicator. but anyway please help.. I really feel like I have no body to go to b besides G.od who is great to pray to but let’s be serious he’s not a breathing human being. I have serious potential to be who I want to be but I right now but in this house I feel like a piece of trash in a trash can and even the people at Church are extremely helpful I feel like I have No body to console in and I just feel ugh

This will be serious
but also our tomorrow fun
as moms sometimes act delirious

We took her for a Tea room brunch
dressed as if going to a ball
We drank Mimosa’s long past lunch

"What else can we do mom to pay you back?"
You are my girls, I have no greater wishes,
But why not finish up here and head to the Go-Cart track?

"But mom yer pregnant you shouldn’t do that
No worries girls, I will just watch
"Good, at the same time yer small, yer belly is fat.

Laughter ensued.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sad but loving
My dad came home with flowers and a card
Find your joy on this, your special day.
"Dear woman I know some of your life has been hard

raising two wild ones, who taxed your energy
who pushed every ones limits to the edge
pressing boundaries with their synergy

You were always the better father than I."

Just s shot in the dark…about a yr ago I had this scary sensation. I went to Walmart and after getting my cart, for about 3 seconds I had NO idea how I got there and why I was there. Like I fell asleep and woke up in Walmart. I am 46, 5 foot 7 inches tall, 50 lbs overweight. Both parents have had heart attacks in their 60s. (Dad died 4 yrs ago after lung cancer.) I do not have high BP, no diabetes for me (dad did, but controlled with meds), cholesterol is about 180. I asked my Dr about it. He didn’t seem concerned. Didn’t request any testing for it. Now, a few times since, i feel "off balance", like the room is slanted and I can’t, for the life of me, right myself for a good several seconds! It’s annoying. Could this be a TIA/ Mini stroke? Anyone ever have this? This is a serious question, but cannot get any real answers from my Dr that probably thinks I am just being weird. Thanks…

today i went with my dad and bouhght my mom this ring it cost 98 dollars and had 1/8 cart diamonds (im 13 years old)i came home and gave it to her and she told me it was sterling silver and she didnt want me to waste my money she said i should return it and get my money baq i told her 2 take the money she said no do you think it was the right thing for her to do???

In my house, my parents demand respect. It doesn’t matter how rude they are, they can still make me do whatever they want, just because I’m not a legal adult. Today, my mom pulled a sheet Ot of the closet that wasn’t folded, started yelling at me for it, and I told her I didn’t do it. She yelled at me, made me fold it, and told me she has to cart my (term for butt) around and that I’m always ungrateful. I am grateful and I do thank my parents when they do things for me. Somehow, I never get thanked or any respect. They dont expect too much, it’s just the way they ask that makes me unwilling to do what they want. My mom seems to think just because she gave birth to me, she deserves respect. Last time I checked, respect was earned not given. It also goes two ways. why can they be rude and cuss, just because they’re older. When I say shut up, I’m being a horrible example to my little sister and that’s where she learned how to say shut your nasty (term for butt) mouth (which is a phrase my dad uses daily) or where she learned a term fo feces which every last person in my house uses. Sorry about the rant guys, I just hate double standards and lack of respect. It irritated me when people yell at me and then ask me to do things. Ask nicely, it might just get you somewhere.
I love when people feel the need to point out one little typo just for their two points. What if I had a learning disability? I bet you’d wish you knew the whole story before you spoke.
Well you didn’t have I be a dick head about spelling on a question that was clearly not about spelling. I could understand if there were a lot of mistakes but there isn’t. Please go troll somewhere else

Okay, my sister went off and married this guy (after becoming pregnant) that she met at Dillons like, 5 years ago. She was 17ish. Her whole life, she messed up. She chose to. Her parents (my mom) were divorced. Everytime she didn’t get her way, she’d be like "Okay, I’m gonna go to Dad’s then!" so she’d get her way. Through her childhood AND teenage years. Now as an "adult" she has left him with me and my mom. HE IS TERRIBLE. He is rediculously smart. He knows how to do something and get away with it, just like his mom. Like, he can fake trip. Or fake laugh. Or barge into conversations. Or lie. Or act like he knows everything. He is adorable, I’ll admit, but his personality, my GOD. And hes like, 5. He will scream just so people think I hurt him. he makes me want to HURT HIM. I can’t even describe the way he acts. Normally, I love kids. I think they are soo sweet and angelic. But he isn’t. If hate wasn’t so frowned upon, I would hate him.

My mom? She is BLIND to this. My family that has seen this side of him, think he is awful. My mom is really close with her sister, and I talked to her, and she thinks my nephew is going to be a really good criminal. She wasn’t joking. They would agree to every word of this. My mom sees him as a perfect child. I don’t even know what to do anymore. Today, I went grocery shopping with him, my Mom and my friend. He would take random things, plop them in the cart, and my mom wouldn’t care. Sometimes she’d be like " no, put it back." but he’d be like "NOOOOO I WANT IT!!" and she’d be like *sigh* okay…
I hate it sooooo much.. even my friend thought it was rediculous. He gets everything he wants. Anything. I try telling my mom about my feelings, and she thinks I’m talking back. I can’t even talk to her without getting in trouble. My dad screams at me about everything.. so I can’t talk to him. One time when I did, he told me "I know, but we just have to ignore it."

I.Am.Done.Ignoring.This.
I need some serious advice..

p.s. My mom wants family counceling. THATS FUNNY, maybe if she wouldn’t be doing this, we wouldn’t have a problem. I feel like she loves him more than me. I’m told that isn’t possible, but my Lord, she acts like it….

i am about 6 week pregnant.
when i first told my guy about it, he was scared like crazy of course, and so was i.
two days later, he said he was over the initial shock and was now getting even a little excited to have a child, and that was honestly the best feeling i can ever remember having: to know that he wouldn’t back out on me, because i am against abortions, and he said he would help me take responsibility for what happened to us.
then, a couple more days later, he called me to tell me that he’d been really thinking about everything, and how we needed to think rationally about our situation.
i am 19 years old and he is 22. he has a full-time job for an hour, but i do not have a job right now because i am in college. i come from a more "wealthy" family, though, and he doesn’t. i’m not saying that my family is uber rich, because we’re not, but both of my parents are doctors. and it also doesn’t mean that his family is dirt poor, but his dad was a marine and his mom is a cop.
he lives on his own and pays for everything himself on his own income, and everything right now for me is pretty much still paid for by my parents.
anyways, i thought things were going amazingly that night he told me he was excited, but then everything changed that next time when he said we needed to speak rationally.
bottom line is we agreed to get me an abortion because of financial problems. i’m sure that his parents and my parents would help, i know they would, but we agreed that we don’t want to have to depends on them forever. we don’t want our baby to ever go without warm clothes, without toys it will want, without anything that it will need.. so we decided that the abortion would be the best thing, since i couldn’t carry a baby for nine months and then just give it away for adoption.
i was fine with the abortion thing for a few weeks, and it still logically makes sense to me, but now.. it’s just like i see babies everywhere. baby carriers, little 2 year olds, kids in shopping carts at the store, baby sections in stores, baby commercials on tv, and i hear about baby stories all the time. it’s not that i never did before, but now it’s just all standing out to me, like it’s saying that i need to have this baby and take the responsibility that i was fine with taking in the beginning.
my guy still thinks it would be the best to get an abortion, and even though he says this, i know he would still be there for me if i decided not to get an abortion. he would be there, he wouldn’t leave me hanging. but he says that an abortion would be the best thing for all three of us: me, him, and our unborn child.

the thing is, my feelings have started to change again. i was absolutely fine with the idea of getting an abortion at first, even though i was against it, because it made the most sense.. but now, it’s just i think EVERYday, hundreds of times a day about how i am going to feel afterwards. if i got an abortion, i know i would never be the same anymore. i’d pretend to have fun, and maybe i could have fun with friends and my guy like old times, but there would still be that one thing in the back of my mind haunting me forever. i wouldn’t become "unpregnant", he and i would just be the parents of a dead baby. and i don’t know how i could live with myself knowing that i took away a life that hadn’t even been given the chance to be lived. what if my baby has real potential? i don’t want to go through the rest of my life having to explain to possible future husbands about how our babies wouldn’t be my first. i don’t want to see babies in shopping carts at the store and think that could have been me, happy with a little boy or girl. i don’t want to hide something so powerful and hanging over me for the rest of my life, because i know that i would regret it and i’ve looked up so many websites on how other women have gotten over abortions, and they all say that there is major depression, regret, hurt, and that their futures are just not as happy as they could have been.

i was fine with the abortion thing at first, but now i’m not. i just don’t know how to break it to my guy, because he still thinks i’m fine with an abortion. i know he wouldn’t back out on me if i told him i was going to have the child, but i know he’d be disappointed in me for not trying to be strong and think about what might be best for the three of us.

someone please help me because i have no idea what to do.

i live on a 14 acre plot and would like to know how to drive a kubota tractor that my dad has i have 2 zero turn mowers and it takes forever to mow on them i also have a mini bike and a go cart i just need instructions on how to start, drive, and all that stuff on a deisel kubota tractor

My little girl turns 3 next month. My husband and I are having it at Sonny’s Fast Track. They have go cart rides, mini golf, batting cages, and tons of video games. You can pick a Saturday or Sunday and the times to book are 1, 3, & 6. We have choose 6-8 on a Sunday…

My sister and her husband live an hour away. And her husband works very early the next morning. She is mad at me because I won’t switch the time back to earlier in the day…

A Saturday is no good because my dad and grandmother both have to work. They’re pretty important and I want them to not have to worry about missing it. So Sunday it has to be. And if you have it any earlier, my 3 yr old will be cranky from no nap. She takes a nap around 2 or 3. And plus it will be a lot warmer and it’s best to ride go carts when it’s cooler weather.

So what am I suppose to do? I love my sister and want to make this easier on her but I don’t see how it could be any earlier…

You cannot just sit everyone down and ask when it will be more convenient for them to come. I cannot make everyone happy!!

I just bought a new gold and white feathered cockateil and she grew up in a cage by a go-cart track so she is frightened of noise and people and every time i try to hold out my finger for her to climb up she either runs into her birdhouse or she bites it…and shes more used to my dad but she still gets scared when either of us holds out a finger for her to climb onto.How do we get her to ease up with out biting off my fingers?

Also We Did Have a Male Cockateil But i figured before we get a new one i should warm the female up to the idea of a new "Friend"

Ok I recently saw a 0,000 episode of america’s funniest home videos and one of the nominees was this clip of a little black kid going "you spent all the money on that, you spent all the money, all the money?". Now the whole clip went like this a little girl got a go-cart for her birth day and her dad called out her little brother to come see it and he kept asking you spent all the money on that, now I can’t remember the name of the video and I can’t seem to find it from my discription and my sister wants to see it so if anyone knows what I’m talking about and has a link to it or nows what the video was called please answer thank you in advance.

My brother, my dad, and I have had a bicycle/go-cart thing. My dad always said we would turn it into a go-cart. Every summer my dad would say this summer we are finally going to start building it well this summer we started we had all the parts to build it we just finished it. Now all i need to know is do i need a licence to drive it? If so where do I go to get one?

My dream was very random, for some reason it started in a cafeteria and everyone started running out. I felt like i was with my mom but when I turned to ask her what had happened I was looking at my dad who was talking to the principal about kids being tardy to school. We decided to go find out what made the kids run out and got in a car. When we turned right on a street, I saw a house with really bright lights (this was at night) but suddenly the car we were in was like one of those kid roller coaster carts. Then i noticed there was a curve ahead of us because I was the one in the front, and I saw a train coming, first it looked like a metra and then it looked like one of those little kid train ride. Everyone freaked out but I was calm and i turned to my side just in case I had to jump out and it hit me, but i was compltely fine and it seemed like we dodged it. Then another train came (same type) and we started going in reverse, I was still calm and I decided to check if the door opened so I could jump out if it hit me this time, then I heard my mom behind me say "are you going to jump?" in a crying voice and I replied "yes" very calmly. Then I woke up and about a minute later I got a text from her asking what I was doing.

I have a 9 month old Blue Heeler that I adore. She chews up everything: blankets, chair cushions, plants, shoes, golf cart seats. etc. My dad says if she destroys one more thing, he is going to kill her. I don’t know how I can make her stop. I know it’s just a phase all young dogs go through, but she needs to stop now. If not… I won’t have my dog anymore.

Please help me save my dog?
Also, she is an outside dog. She runs around the yard constantly, and we play everyday when I get home. I have bought her rawhides, pig ears, cow hooves, and chew toys. And I have NEVER seen her chew on anything. My parents just assume she is the culprit, and nothing I say can convince them otherwise. I can not punish my dog when I never see her doing anything wrong.

… Pablita and her litter of 6 kids can walk into the grocery store every morning after their Dad has gone to work for /hr cash under the table..and buy carts full of groceries with their WIC/EBT.

I’m half hispanic and surely wouldn’t go out of my way to degrade my mother’s background. So why am I considered "racist" for pointing out the obvious. …because if I saw SusieJane doing the same thing..I’d call her on it too….
I guess I don’t feel too much compassion because I was parentless and homeless as a teenager and I found my way all on my own. Now, I know that it may be different for a younger child..but does anyone make the connection that some people continue to pop out children that they can’t afford because we have a legal system that encourages it?
To the person who said I should "mind my own business" and "stop being nosy". IT IS MY BUSINESS. Pablita is spending my HARD EARNED tax dollars and I’m wondering why I don’t get more of a say in where they go.
To be quite frank, I’m worried about the wellbeing of our American children…the ones who are being neglected left and right because we have others coming in here to openly abuse the system.
Until every American child is being assisted with their education, placed in proper foster homes, and/or completely healthy…WHY WOULD ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND GIVE FREE HANDOUTS TO THOSE WHO ARE NOT FROM OUR COUNTRY?

It’s like me having a broken down house….shouldn’t I fix it first before I attempt to help the rest of the neighborhood fix theirs?
FYI:::: I NEVER SAID THE WALL STREET ABUSERS WERE NOT A PROBLEM..but that is not the issue at hand right now.

I’m a young adult, and just found out that you can get diabetes type 1 at my age, 16, well to start it all off, I AM a hypochodriac and worry about many diseases but I’m pretty sure of this one. First of all I was a the store yesterday and I got very confused and was kind of waltzing around trying to get my stuff and return to my mom’s cart and half the time I couldn’t even remember what I had just said, I’m pretty sure this is all hypoglycemia then I came home and told my parents I was feeling REALLY funny and told them what had happened and they just told me to relax so I had a glass of juice and tryed to calm down. Today it’s easter and I had a big breakfast and dinner a few hours after and ended up being really really thirsty after I ate a lot, I had beans, a roll and falafel which are chickpea patties, and more water. I didn’t have increased urination which I know is one of the symptoms… but I did have increased thrist after I ate all of that and after I had desert I felt funny as well. And right now my vision is kind of blurred not to the point that I can’t see but to the point where long distant things are a bit blurry. How blurry is the diabetic symtoms supposed to be? I’m so scared I have type one diabetes! I am going to have a doctors appointment either tomorrow, or tonight if I get to scared and it gets worse I may go to urgent care. My dad says that your ankles would be swollen if you seriously had diabetes, and mine aren’t at all but that isn’t on any of the symptom sites. Anyway, please tell me if these sound like serious symtoms of type 1. I’m so scared that I might have it, I just need some reassurence that everythings going to b e okay. Please!! :[[
Also my arm has been tingly on and off for the past few days, this worries me even more because I know its a symtomp as well!

I am a 16 year old girl looking for my first car. I’m going absolutely insane as time and time again I find a car, but my dad doesn’t approve, or I find a car and the reviews are terrible. I just want a cute, used car, for under ,000 (closer to ,000 would be preferred), with great safety ratings and good gas mileage. I’m buying used, so the car needs to hold it’s value. I’m basically looking for the perfect car I guess.. but I’m beginning to doubt that I’ll be able to find the car for what I want. I just need to be pointed in the right direction; I’m hoping there’s a car that fits all my criteria that I just haven’t seen yet. I will probably be carting kids around, I love bright exterior colors, and it has to be ’07 or older. I just need some ideas, any advice would be great. Thanks!
P.S. I love VW bugs, the cutesy style and cars like that. (My dad said no to the bug). I’m also looking into Honda Civics, because I like them a lot, but Hondas seem to be more expensive.

(She’s 13 now)

I’m wondering because she sorta used to hate me. When I was little, I’d tie her to my mini shopping cart (Not too tight, just tight enough that she couldn’t get out) and push her in it, and stick her in cloth bags and carry her around. I mean, she got revenge on me by hiding beneath the slotted stairs and swiping at my feet (Claws out >.<), and my feet only, when I’d go up or down!

Now she sleeps cuddled next to me, follows me around alot, lets me pet her tummy, and pick her up and carry her around.

Is this normal for a senior?
She’s been this way for two years but my parents wouldn’t let her sleep in my room because I had a loft bed. But my mum just tells my dad to let my cat sleep in here because she’s old. ^.^
It’s old for an indoor/outdoor cat (Well, she was for most of her life) who was poisoned seven years ago. xD

i got a go cart and there are kids asking me if they can ride on it with me.my dad told me the only way the can is if their parents sign a release form saying that if any thing happens to their kid while they are on it,they wont hold us accountable for it
