  • Posted on May 10, 2011 at 7:23 am

once there was a teenage girl who wanted to go to a party..
her parents said “NO…we are going to the movies tonight”
the daughter was sooo mad..so she snuck out and went to the party..
she and her friends got drunk and then decided to drive to get some fast food…
when the daughter started driving..she said “i feel dizzy..i dont think i shoud be driving..”
so one of her friends took hold of the steering wheel..
they then got in an accident..
when the daughter later woke up in the hospital, the doctor told her that she only had a few minutes left to live because she was losing so much blood…
the daughter said…”how are my friends??”
the doctor responded “they are o.k…they just have some cuts and bruises”
the daughter then said..”how about the people that were in front of us..are they o.k.??”
the doctor said..”no..they died instantly”
“oh” said the daughter..feeling terrible about it..
“can i write something down real quick?”
the doctor handed her a piece of paper and a pen..
the letter said…
`dear mom and dad…i am sorry i disobeyed you..i love you and i hope you had a good time at the movies..where i should have been lastnight..love, your daughter`
as the daughter wrote down the last letter..she died..
the doctor took the note from her and crumpled it up and threw it away…

WHY?!??!
good job jasmin d.

the answer was that the people who were in the car infront of the daughter was her parents..they are now dead…the note was useless

probably..writing something used all her strength up..she could’ve lived longer..(most likely not much longer thought!!) =] thankss

what should i tell my daughter about my father?

  • Posted on May 10, 2011 at 6:17 am

i kept my pregnancy hidden form my father till i was 7months. i knew he would not be supportive, because my BF is black & we aren’t married. needless to say when i told him, he asked me if i even knew who the father was, he told me i was stupid & that i “better not give THAT baby HIS last name.” i haven’t spoken to him hardly since my daughter was born (she is almost 7months). he did give my daughter (along w/my nephews) $500 for christmas. however, he still doesn’t acknowledge her at all. it’s very uncomfortable because all of my family & i are extremely close & love my daughter so much. then there is my dad, he is so awesome with my nephews & i don’t want my daughter to see that & wonder what is wrong with her. another thing is that he is a “functioning alcoholic,” so he will go off at the drop of a hat & i don’t want him to make any racial comment toward her, cuz my BF will physically hurt him. should i try to let him get to know her or just avoid him all together?
ohh john that was good! i did put the money in her account.
zesty, he is very protective of his daughter, as most decent dads are. he does not have anger issues.

Very Extremely concerned about daughter and this guy?

  • Posted on May 9, 2011 at 9:22 am

Okay she has been leaving the house without telling me, and My partner has once seen her in town with this guy that we have forbidden her to date (shes open to other guys, but she just wants this jerk) I saw a discarded pregnancy test wrapper in her room once, and we are concerned she is sexually active with this guy. She once didn’t come home till one at night (she wasn’t drunk, and she drove herself home) We also hear noises downstairs during the night, like this boy is sneaking in, we come to investigate, and her door is locked and it is completely silent. I am extreamly worried. She also has been eating allot, and she has been complaining of vomiting, and being to sick to got to school (I don’t know if these are pregnancy symptoms or not.) But we are concerned. I dont know what to think. Help me straighten out this teen.( She is also 16 years old)

My 17 year old daughter was busted for “selling alcohol to minors”?

  • Posted on May 9, 2011 at 8:17 am

She worked as a part-time cashier for Foodlion as an after-school job. She was preoccupied checking out customers one afternoon (it was very busy and she had a long line) and some kid brought up a can of what seemed to be one of those energy drinks and she rang it through without thinking about it. It turned out that the “customer” behind the young man was an undercover agent and what the young man had purchased was an alcoholic drink. (I’m Mormon, I don’t drink alcohol, and I don’t even know what it was or how to identify it. My daughter didn’t know what it was, either.) She got fired from her job, of course, and came home in tears. I was so sad for her, because she loved her job and loved to work.

My daughter is pretty much a responsible girl, although a little naive. She has never been in trouble before. She gets pretty decent grades in school and was planning on going into the army–in fact, she had an appointment with the recruiter this Thursday.

Well, anyway, we had to go to court. This was an utter goat-rope of gigantic proportions. I was trained as a paralegal and yet I never imagined that court would be like this! There was about 300 people of all ages crammed into the courtroom and they had to form a line around the room to make their way up front and plead their case. When it was her turn, we got to this guy who pulled her file and said that she could plead guilty and pay a fine, or go to a juvenile rehab program for which I was to pay $300. Those were our only options. I asked about the option of pleading not-guilty and he just kind of fumbled around and stuttered for a while, and said we could come back to court on another day. He didn’t say when.

Well, sorry, I was a single parent, I spent 2 1/2 months out of work this summer because I was laid-off from my job and had hell trying to find another, and I didn’t have $300 to give to juvenile rehab programs, especially when my daughter doesn’t need rehab. She needs to concentrate on finishing her last year of highschool and go on to her career.

I spent the last couple of months trying to find work and now that I have a job, I can’t afford to take days off to fool around. My time being unemployed caused me to be late on my bills–now I have bill collectors ringing me up all day. I came awful close to being homeless this summer–my church paid my rent for me.

Well, this was back in August. It’s December now and I just got home from work and met my crying daughter at the door. It seems that the sherriff came by to let her know that she would be going to jail tomorrow. What the freak?!! She’s just a little 17-year-old kid and all. Where’s the justice in this?! I now have to take a precious day off work to figure out what I am going to do.

The undercover cop is sitting back all smug and snotty saying he was just doing his job. I can’t stand this.

What can I do?
It was a sting operation, the “customer” and the undercover cop were acting together

My step daughter’s behavior?

  • Posted on May 8, 2011 at 10:17 am

My husband and I have been happily married for almost 3 years now; we both have daughters from previous marriages and would like to start trying for another child. My daughter is a real sweet girl and cares about others as well as obeys her parents. However my step daughter’s behavior is totally unacceptable and she does not want to listen to me or her father, and yells at us whenever we confront her.

She recently came to live with us after she was in a rehab facility for anorexia and drug abuse. We have had uncountable episodes where she would come home at 4 in the morning totally drunk and high on drugs. After she was grounded. I recently found drugs in her room, and seen cuts on her arm. She also skips school, barely eats and I haven’t seen her sleep at all in a while, I have even caught her having sex. She knows the rules in our house, yet she disobeys them.

My husband and I have no idea what to do, I have tried talking to her, but I don’t know what to say.

She has had a really hard live, her little sister died when she was 4 and that totally shattered her father and mother’s relationship. Her mother, an alcoholic, then took off with her and no one could find them.

Her mother’s boyfriends severally abused her and raped her. After her mothers suicide she was sent from foster home to foster home, because she would cry, kick and scream all the time. Only after her suicide attempted did my husband and I track her down and admitted her to a rehab facility, however we felt so guilty leaving her there we wanted to give her a chance at a normal life, since she’s only 16. I have no idea what to do.

thank you for the advice.

Why am I not trusted with my god daughter?

  • Posted on May 7, 2011 at 12:18 pm

A little background on the situation. My best friend of twelve years had a little girl about two years ago & for a Christmas gift her and her husband made me the god mother. I’m very close with my god daughter, I babysit her quite often. I attend all her doctor’s appointments, she has Cystic Fibrosis. I do not drink, smoke, do drugs, i’ve never had a speeding ticket or been in a car accident. For a long time I was more educted in her medicine than her own father. Her father is an alcoholic who had a suspended license and left his family every weekend to party, drink and go to strip clubs. I routinely took care of my god daughter when my best friend (her mother) and her husband (her father) were separated. At which time my best friend would would go out with other men while I took care of her daughter. She did not directly ask me to do this but I did not want my god daughter around strange men so I offered to babysit. Many times this was late at night. My best friend’s mother in law threw various objects at her son while he was holding my god daughter. When my god daughter was ill and only 8 mos old they left her in the hospital for days at a time without any visitors “because they had to work” when her father works in the same city as the hospital is located

My question is why am I not allowed to take my god daughter to the park or anywhere for that matter? I feel bad that she has to sit in the house all day. My best friend’s husband acts as if i’m an irresponsible person who is not to be trusted. I have not brought this up with my best friend because I don’t want to start friction in our relationship.
I was told by her mother that she did not go there for days and because I was not a parent I was not allowed to visit. H1N1 was too much of a worry for the hospital last December.

Dealing with my daughter’s competing and interfering grandparents?

  • Posted on May 6, 2011 at 3:24 pm

My daughter is 6 months old and my parents are driving me crazy with their interfering and it seems like they are trying to make everything a competition. Everything that my husband and I bought our daughter for X-Mas they say “Oh we were going to get her that” or “We got her that too”. Her other grandma wanted to get her clothes and we got her some as well so I told them not to get her any but they did anyway. They don’t listen to my wishes or instructions when I leave her with them. They have a pillowtop mattress and I told them that it’s not safe for her to sleep with them and they put her in bed anyways. The other day my mom told me that our daughter needed to have a dog growing up and that if we didn’t get her one that they’d get one to have at their house for her. They try to take over everything and it is driving me crazy. I’m not comfortable with her being at their house very often, they aren’t good role models- they have very unhealthy habits and my mom drinks a lot and works at a bar. They also fight a lot and are “getting divorced” every other year. I love my parents but I really need them to respect mine and my husband’s wishes when it comes to our child. How do I make them respect me and my opinions without starting a big fight?

hop do i help my alcoholic mum in denial?

  • Posted on May 6, 2011 at 2:17 pm

my mum is an alcoholic – every night she sits alone downstairs and drinks 1-2 bottles of wine, passes out on the sofa and finally gets herself to bed at about 4 am. i don’t live at home anymore-i’m 23 and have a daughter, but i worry for my family. my sisters live there (aged 12 and 14) and my dad and older brother too. my bro doesn’t stay there much though. dad said she stinks of alcohol in the morning but if he ever tries to speak to her she tells him its all his fault. she’s so abusive when drunk i heard her try to glass my dad once. my sisters don’t see it as they are in bed thankfully but they know she drinks a lot. they don’t have the happy childhood i remember as no-one seems to have the time or energy for them now. they always hear mum and dad arguing at night, and my mum is negative about my dad all day that they pick up on it and treat him the same. i feel sorry for him as he gets abuse from everyone! he loves my mum so much he wont give up on her. She’s got quite fat from her drinking too, which concerns me as its so dangerous.dad had a heart attack this week (stress induced) and even in hospital she was having a go at him, just cos the doctors asked him how much he drinks. i am close to my mum but she seems to think this is all a big joke. i just don’t know how to get through to her. im worried for her health and that of my family too.
