Let me sum it up, which is quite hilarious. First off, my parents argue a lot and for the first time me, my little sister & mother had to move to my grandmothers for a full month until my step-dad 'cried' to my mom that he wanted her back and he loved her. Well, that happens and were all happily ever after. But only for what? A couple of months it would seem.

Yesterday I was at an Anime convention when it was my step-dad's birthday party up at some pool which isn't too far from my house. When I return home from the convention I decide to stay and discuss the convention with my friends via YIM & MSN. I had a blast, got to get some things, got Anime-tized and stuff. So in a nutshell, it WAS a blast.

However, my mother told me when they went up to the pool they would be there for awhile. And I mean she WAS, around eight o'clock at night I fall asleep and suddenly my little sister wakes me up at 1 o'clock in the morning. I question her and she starts panicking (losing her words) saying my mom 'does not' love step-dad anymore and she almost broke her nose for a second time at this party. So I went up to confront her, step-dad passed me to sleep in my sister's room. (Lawl, she sleeps on the couch) Then, I walk over to my mother's room and greet her the usual stuff. Ask how she is doing and then BAM! ''I think we're going to be moving again..'' that was where I was TICKED off.

So much, I didn't care much but at the same time I had worried. See, I have many things planned this summer such as getting my last name changed, having senior pictures and such things that have to do with the WHOLE family. Now here is a hint where this could have made them... become this. I have a step-brother who is 20 with no job, has everyone do everything for him because everyone is frightened to say no to him. My mother always asks my step-dad to 'talk' to him about getting a job. But he just argues with her instead. Seriously, why can't he just talk it out? I understand my step-brother hasn't seen his real mother forever (which is the case why my step-dad goes easy on him and let's him go party and stuff) but cut some slack. Here I am when I am the one looking for a job.

I lost sight of my real dad, determined to get a job AND go to college. What's up with that? Oh lawl, where did this family go wrong? :<

Anyways, any suggestions to what I should tell my mother? Or just have feedback in general?

You already have a step-father and that relationship is already winding down the drain? Sounds like your mom has relationship problems ._.

And the step brother thing who's 20 with no job... Yeah, something needs to be done about that. I've seen it happen far too often where the parents just let the kid step all over them and then next thing you know the kid's 35 and STILL living with his parents and pretty much doing nothing with his life.

As for everything else... I dunno man. Life gets better when you move out though. Sometimes you get dealt a bad hand, but life is what you make of it.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, he ought to get up on his feet. Most of the time he just loves to become a show-off or just impress ladies. Other then that, it seems my parent's are doing okay. I discussed things with my mother and she said it was just a crisis last night in which was triggered by drinking. Hopefully, problems with the two of them will not stir up seriously though.

And yes, my mother is quite the person that would have trouble in relationships. Considering this is the third guy she's with in her whole life.

If you need to, listen to Dawston McAlistar around 10 o'clock. The station it is on for me is 104.7, central/SD. If that doesn't work go to www.dmlive.com and it has the information there.

He has many people calling in about problems like this and some worse. But he will give you advice about what to do and all of that. So give it a try

Mike Brunestud - July 12, 2008 05:13 PM (GMT)
Whoa, really? This is what I needed it seems. Thanks.

No problem.



So have you talked to him yet

I would say that you guys plan a dinner for your mom and dad...Make it private :3

True, they NEVER go out anywhere for a date anymore. >>'' Which my step-dad mentioned he would do so when we got back together as a family. Now he isn't.

My family may not have problems such as yours, but I do feel sorry for you. I know what it's like to listen to your parents fight, it's terrible.

I think Wolf's suggestion is a good one, BTW.
