I consider you guys family.

Example:

Posh-doll - brother
Vampiric - cousin
Newb & Zero - uncles
Mona - Aunt

Only a few up there, but almost all of you have a place in the "family".
That's why I'd like to ask all of you for advice.
I'm sure you guys have either been in a similar situation, or know someone who has.

My other family (the one I didn't choose to be a part of) is having major problems.



Examples:


-My 15-year-old brother has decided that he's too good to listen to my mom, who has to deal with him alone while my dad is out-of-state working.
Not good.

- The fact that my dad has to go out-of-state for work is stressful.

- Also, I've given up my room to our 50-something year-old diabetic, frail roommate with a broken hip.
For the couch, mind you.
He can't get in and out of the fifth-wheel (like a camper) that he was renting.
I'm just nice like that.

- I'm going to school from 7am to 4:30pm and working from 5pm to 9pm.
And I'm 18, so I am going to have to move out when my dad gets back in a month or two.

- My mom, bless her soul, is going through so much more!

There is a lot more, but the point is, I am so stressed!!!
And so is everyone else!




So here is where I ask for advice:


- What can I do to help out my mom?

- Should I push myself to move out, or to stay for as long as possible?

- What do I do about sleeping on a couch?

- Should I get my GED so I can work more. The GED will give me enough credits for my deploma.

- Is there anything you can suggest to relieve some stress?

- And is there any new movies that you would recommend? :rolleyes: Just a-wonderin'!
Might help me unwind... Usually does anyhow!



Thank you sooo much! ^.^




And I have to add this on for effect:

I love you!!! :p <3


For someone who is so young..you have always had a level head
and for this you are to be highly commended.
To be honest your situation sounds kinda sucky for a somebody like yourself who should be enjoying herself.
Your brother needs a definate wake up call but then hes a teen ..experiencing puberty.
They blame everything on the shift of the moon or something like that.
As for you moving out ..hrmmm...
For now it would be added worries for your mum..
things like ..is she eating well ..?
how is she supporting herself..?? etc.

What i think should happen here actually is for you all to talk to your dad and tell him the stress your all under and he needs to spend more time with your mum..I dont know ..
even if he was to take her on one of his trips ..just to get her out of the house.

thats all i have . :o
