Can a person that owns 50% of a property keep a 35% owner from attempting to live at the house as well?

Saturday, October 22nd, 2011

The 50% owner has lived at the house with his mother (recently deceased) for over 25 years; now the 35% owner wants to have access to the house as well. Can he keep her out? She’s a drug addict and prostitute and puts the property at risk of being confiscated by the police. Thank you.

How do I keep from eating!?!?

Sunday, July 10th, 2011

I’ve struggled with my weight for my whole life – not overweight, but borderline, which makes it hard because my doctors don’t say “you need to lose weight”, they say “oh you’re fine” so my mom still buys unhealthy snacks (we eat healthy meals but my brother loves junk food snacks so they’re always in our house) and I just can’t stop eating. I was bulimic for a while, then I had binge-eating disorder (not binge-purge, just binge) and now I still just eat all the time. Sometimes I’m not even hungry, I just eat because I’m bored.

How do I not eat!? I know pro-ana tips say to snap your wrist with a rubber band when you’re hungry, but I don’t know. I’ll take anything, ana tips or whatever, to stop from mindlessly eating all the time. Please give me any tips you have to curb appetite, keep from eating, anything! Thank you in advance

What can i do to keep them off drugs.
I already gave the mother an indisputable knowledge so that she knows their is a God( One God that created all that is in the heavens and the earth) and still she does not get it she said i will go to church(i told them they must be righteous do good and live by the Quran(complete truth), the Book(Bible)Or the Torah if they wanted to inherit paradise) then called her son to tell him she is going to get meth.

Why do I keep bingeing like this?

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Throughout the day, I eat very healthy. I eat things like a bowl of organic cereal for breakfast, a salad for lunch, and vegetable soup for dinner. Then, usually at night, I binge. It is often with foods I don’t even like! I will just have these compulsions. Like I hate artichokes. A few nights ago, my mom ordered a pizza with artichokes and I ate a ton of it. I also don’t like frosting, and last night, I got out a tin of frosting and just started squirting it into my mouth. I know, that’s so gross! When I am bingeing I don’t think, I just stuff whatever into my mouth. Then when I’m done, I’m like “what the heck!” because when I binge I’m not even HUNGRY. I don’t like people to see me binge, usually when other people come around I hide the food or throw it away. Like I said, I most often binge at night, but also at breakfastime occasionally. Help! I’m 5′ 7″ and 128 pounds but I’m starting to gain weight! Aah!!!

I was asked to keep a secret of someone on serious drugs. What should i do?

Saturday, May 14th, 2011

My brother got mixed up with this girl a few years back and they had a baby. He is now 2. They are no longer together but share custody equally. My brother told me on Friday that she told him she had snorted heroine a few times recently. I freaked out. I do not have any experience with drug addicts, no one i have ever known has had a problem. He says they are working out getting her help but do not believe he can do it on his own. He is not on drugs, he is a nice boy, just got mixed up with a girl from the wrong side of the tracks. Her mother was a druggie her entire life, in and out of rehab.
She is in the army reserves, should i call them. Would they be able to get her help. I do not trust that baby going back to her without her going to rehab. I do not believe that heroine is the type of drug you do only once or twice. Also, if the army tests her, how long does it stay in the body? What if she tests clean? So confused but need to do something to help my nephew. I am 26 and my brother is 23. Thanks
My brother was at my house next to me when talking to her about it. It is not 2nd hand information. This is a real situation.
Aime: cross my t’s and dot my i’s. Trying to ruin her life? ? Are you serious? I am trying to help her. I do not want to see her go down the same road her mother did. And i DO NOT want any harm to come to the baby; a defenseless little boy who lives with me every other week. I don’t know where you are from but in my book, people just to do heroine to ‘try it out’. She needs help. People die because people like you sit back and watch. Ruin her life, i think not.

How can I keep a mother from getting her kids she abused back?

Friday, April 29th, 2011

My cousin called my Mom last May (the 19th) and asked her to take her 2 small children. She just showed up today, almost a year later with cops and her “lawyer” to get her kids. She had called my Mom because she was arrested in a meth lab with her 2 month old and she thought OCS was going to take them from her. My Mom had her sign a paper granting temperary custody, not to exceed 6 months, just long enough to go through her court appointed rehab. Well, she went once, but never completed it. She is now 7 months pregnant with another baby and still on crystal meth. When we got her 4 year old son, he was malnurished and had 4 abcessed teeth that my Mom had removed by a dentist. Her 8 month old daughter could not sit up and weighed more than her brother. Their “egg donor” had been feeding her bottles just to keep her quiet while she got high and then slept it off. Our family is devastated. Is there anything legal that can be done besides calling OCS to watch her like a hawk? Please Pray!

How do you keep a mother w/ mental problems away from her children?

Sunday, April 24th, 2011

A suicidal woman who is in and out of mental hospitals has a warrant for 3 years in Fl. addicted to pills hides for 3 years then gets an attorney and pays her fines and then gets a licence back and a judge orders a withdrawl of Capias w/ a previous history. The next day goes back to the mental hospital. This woman can move back to FL and a parent with full custody scared for his children can not ask for an emergency injunction because she did not threaten lives. She calls from the hospital says shes coming back to see the kids now that the warrant that her mother paid off is taken care of, she could come and take the children and we could never see them again. Where is the justice?
The court wont help because of no threat, what can we do to protect the children?

My mother-in-law is a mess; should I keep her from my kids?

Saturday, April 9th, 2011

My mother-in-law is an alcoholic who goes through at least 10-20 beers a day. She thinks it’s impressive if she hasn’t had a drink before 11am, and frequently drives inebriated. On top of this, her behavior gets so erratic that sometimes it’s a bit scary. (For example, she’s thrown literal temper tantrums at my husband if he doesn’t do what she wants – she kicks the door, screams, pounds the wall, etc.)

All in all, she’s a horrible role model for children, and being I’m pregnant with my first, I’m afraid for the future. She’s incredibly demanding and pushy; if I ask her not to do something, she does it anyway and generally think she knows everything about everything, which worries me in terms of her ignoring my requests about behavior around my child.

What can I do? I want her to have a part in my child’s life, but not when she’s drinking or not taking her medication. Is there any safe way to approach this, considering she generally doesn’t listen to anyone around her?
As an additional note – she does see a doctor who gives her medication, but the problem is that she doesn’t take it (or takes it while drinking, which kind of defeats the purpose). My husband and I (and most of the other in-laws) try our best to avoid her completely when she’s drunk and have confronted her about her issues, but the woman doesn’t listen. She’s perhaps one of the most stubborn people I’ve ever met.

My husband has never supported her behavior and responds to her coldly when she acts these ways – considering how she loves him so much, I thought that this in itself would be an eye-opener for her, but it seems she doesn’t want to admit that she needs to change her life around. This is why I’m concerned that she won’t change her life even if it means not being around her grandchildren. (She’ll blame us and turn it into a sob story about her, saying we deny her visits, we’re horrible parents, etc.)

Is there anyway to keep an out of district family in the school system?

Friday, April 8th, 2011

There are three girls in this family, an alcoholic mother, and a father who is out of the picture. The three girls got taken out of the possesion of their mother so she could go through rehab in December. Two girls moved into a neighboring town with a relative, the other one with an intown relative. The girls remained in their school system for the remainder of the year, but are now told they have to go to their intown school. This leaves the family separated. Is there anyway to keep the girls in the school system they have always been in? I know out of district tuition is an option, but i dont see how it can be afforded by the family, the district is fairly wealthy, it’d be a fortune. The schools are in new jersey if it helps. Could the two girls stay with their intown relatives with the other sister for even a day a week and be considered residence of their original town, even though not in possesion of their mother? The intown family cant take all three in permanently

I hate her! I hate her! What do I do to keep from committing mass sororicide!?

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011

I despise my mother with an unbelievable hatred. An undeniable fury that could send a Viking running in terror. I can’t take this anymore. She is the most hateful, deceitful, self-loving, self-pitying person I have ever met. Let me explain.

She, in the past four years, has developed a taste for alcohol. Ah, I remember mixing her Martinis and listening intently as she described why she is such an amazing mother, the parenting prowess of those who shunned her unparalleled to her own. Why men are dogs, and should be treated as lesser beings far less intelligent than her. It was alright for a while. But, alas, my father hated it. He would insult me when I came in the room, insult me every day, he’d scream and grab me, call me a “stinking drunk”….But it was okay. Because “mother” was “truthful”. “Mother” was “honest”. Nope. One night she got really, really tanked. She told me stories about how her father kicked her to pieces, her mother beat her with a broom, and her uncle molested her. I was so frantic and upset that I cracked a ceramic pot over my head until it cracked. Then I swallowed a handful of sleeping pills. Being ten…I wasn’t the smartest when it came to suicide. It didn’t work. And a few days later…When I asked her about the stories…She said I was “lying”. That she exaggerated. That her father once hit her brother over the head with a broom, and kicked her once when she was being a brat.

I never trusted her again. She became belligerent, drank more, started hitting me a few times…Nothing hard, just really bad swings. A couple times she clonked me in the nose. Then we moved. Constant insults, constant misery, nightly drinking, daily arguments. Needless to say I lost my mind. My dad has become a lot better…But her….She’s disgusting. A sweaty, burnt leather sack wrapped around 280 pounds of charred lungs, a filthy liver, and fat. She never takes care of herself, wearing the same sickening sweat pants and near-transparent shirt every day…..She always smells like sweat and tobacco…Gah. She talks about my dad and I behind our backs to her parents, says that he causes her alcoholism, that we’re the scum of the earth. Yeah…he’s causing it alright…Going out of his way to buy her a 40$ bottle of Scotch. Oh no, my grandparents do it too. “Most miserable people I’ve ever met.”, “I think you should just get a divorce.” I CAN’T STAND IT!

And now…This surgery brings nothing but joy. She likes to withhold my pills, you see. And when I fall from the pain she likes to make bitchy comments and go out for a smoke, leaving me on the floor. And at night…Well…If I have to pee? Or if I’m dizzy from dehydration? Just have to wait till’ the sun comes up so Daddy can help me, because God knows drunky has to stumble to bed. Or the Den floor. Whichever hits her first. And hah…If it wasn’t for my daddy…Well, I’d probably die of starvation/dehydration in a puddle of my own urine on the bedroom floor. God bless the man. He loves her though…Which I could never understand. Why would he love her? She says she hates him! Gah!

And she is so humiliating, I was a late bed wetter, so now that every time I sit on a couch or chair she always….ALWAYS…Makes some comment. “Oh-…Sweeeetie pie, get off the couchy-poo before you make pee-pees.”, “Oh do you want me to put the pad-dy down in case you poo-poo? Daddy would be very angry if you made wetties on his chair.” It’s humiliating. I feel like a toddler. She…She…I just wish she would go live somewhere else. In a convent, maybe. Yeah.

I’m sorry about this everyone…I just needed to vent. If you have any suggestions about how to help the situation please chime in. If you have any criticisms do so too.
No. She wouldn’t punch me. She’s bad, but not that bad. I am sure she would get physical, but only to the point of grabbing me by the hair or shoving me to the ground. She only drinks after 6:00 PM, remember? I don’t want to get involved with that kind of a situation, man, because I know my dad would take her side…And that is some shit I don’t want to mess with. The only friend, and water-provider I have in this whole fucking planet? No. Thank you for the suggestion, but no way. I hid her beer once and she EXPLODED though. It was actually kind of funny because I kept my distance.
She’s not really abusive, even. Just extremely impossible to live with. Dad never deals with her when she’s drunk. He has no reason to hate her other than her hating him.

Please give some info and helpful answers…and keep an open mind.?

Friday, March 11th, 2011

My mother has been trying to take my daughter age 12 from me since she was born. I have had countless restraining orders, a 2 year order of protection for both me and my daughter and I have moved to several different states only for her to find me and cause more trouble. I have recreationaly used marijuana in the past (which I know is a “no, no”) However I have never used in the presence of my children. The last time I smoked I did not know at the time that I was pregnant and as soon as I discovered that I was I never touched it again. Unfortunately mother discovered where I lived a month later and began secretly meeting with my daughter at a community theater play that she was rehearsing for. Knowing my past history with marijuana she convinced my daughter that if she went to school and complained that I was a drug abuser that CPS would come and take her away and then she would be able to come and live with her. CPS came and removed my children from my home and requested a hair follicle test that we all know can go back up to three years. I began to cooperate with CPS for the return of my children who were placed with my Mother In law instead of my mother. When my mother discovered that she would not be getting or considered for custody of my kids she pressed the issue with the police to arrest me for harming/neglecting my unborn fetus. And I was. CPS did not push for this arrest, my mother did. My question is this. I never harmed or neglected my children. They were well taken care of. I never did any other drugs like crack, heroin, meth, ect. Nor did I ever knowingly smoke marijuana while pregnant. What the hell can I do to fight this??? What can I do to fight her. I know that this is not the end of her tyrant and vendetta against me. Please give me some advise.
Thanks RJ and JC’s Mommy…. I have been doing exactly what you advise. I also have a lawyer, a beautiful home, I don’t drink, smoke cigarettes, ect. I also have the finances to take care of them all. The only the CPS and the law have found me “guilty” of is a positive drug test for THC. I appreciate your understanding…it gives me strength.

Ladies….dry your tearz…never give up and keep ya head up?

Monday, February 28th, 2011

Hey i’m tellin u right now that thiz ain’t a question..i dedicate this song 2 all the ladies who really needed respect…hit it..
Artist: 2Pac
Album: Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.
Song: Keep Ya Head Up
Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash

Little somethin for my godson Elijah and a little girl named Corinne

[Verse One]
Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots
I give a holler to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, if don’t nobody else care
And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot
When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don’t cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don’t forget, girl keep your head up
And when he tells you you ain’t nuttin don’t believe him
And if he can’t learn to love you you should leave him
Cause sista you don’t need him
And I ain’t tryin to gas ya up, I just call em how I see em
You know it makes me unhappy (what’s that)
When brothas make babies, and leave a young mother to be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it’s time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don’t we’ll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can’t make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one
So will the real men get up
I know you’re fed up ladies, but keep your head up

[Chorus - repeat 2X]
Keep ya head up, oooo child things are gonna get easier
ooooo child things are gonna get brighter

[Verse Two]
Aiyyo, I remember Marvin Gaye, used to sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing to be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn’t seem so tough
And though we had it rough, we always had enough
I huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke the rules
Ran with the local crew, and had a smoke or two
And I realize momma really paid the price
She nearly gave her life, to raise me right
And all I had ta give her was my pipe dream
Of how I’d rock the mic, and make it to tha bright screen
I’m tryin to make a dollar out of fifteen cents
It’s hard to be legit and still pay tha rent
And in the end it seems I’m headin for tha pen
I try and find my friends, but they’re blowin in the wind
Last night my buddy lost his whole family
It’s gonna take the man in me to conquer this insanity
It seems tha rain’ll never let up
I try to keep my head up, and still keep from gettin wet up
You know it’s funny when it rains it pours
They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor
Say there ain’t no hope for the youth and the truth is
it ain’t no hope for tha future
And then they wonder why we crazy
I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby
We ain’t meant to survive, cause it’s a setup
And even though you’re fed up
Huh, ya got to keep your head up

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]
And uhh
To all the ladies havin babies on they own
I know it’s kinda rough and you’re feelin all alone
Daddy’s long gone and he left you by ya lonesome
Thank the Lord for my kids, even if nobody else want em
Cause I think we can make it, in fact, I’m sure
And if you fall, stand tall and comeback for more
Cause ain’t nuttin worse than when your son
wants to kno why his daddy don’t love him no mo’
You can’t complain you was dealt this
hell of a hand without a man, feelin helpless
Because there’s too many things for you to deal with
Dying inside, but outside you’re looking fearless
While tears, is rollin down your cheeks
Ya steady hopin things don’t all down this week
Cause if it did, you couldn’t take it, and don’t blame me
I was given this world I didn’t make it
And now my son’s getten older and older and cold
From havin the world on his shoulders
While the rich kids is drivin Benz
I’m still tryin to hold on to my survivin friends
And it’s crazy, it seems it’ll never let up, but
please… you got to keep your head up

Keep my little sister in your prayers?

Saturday, January 15th, 2011

My mother, a drug addict, recently relapsed. She had custody of my 19 month old sister, today at court, they took her out of my mothers custody. They were going to put her with me, since I’m emancipated, until my mother could get into a rehab that allows children to stay with them, but I needed to have a home study, that they can’t complete until tomorrow. For the night, my sister will be in foster care. This is a really really scary time for me, my grandmother, and my poor little sister. I just ask that you say a prayer tonight, so that she somehow, by the grace of God, knows that she’s going to be alright, and that we all love her.

Parenting question- Whats the scariest thing you’ve had happen with your child?

Keep having traumatic flashbacks?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

I keep thinking about being sectioned(forced in an inpatient program or mental hospital).

4 years ago I was sectioned for Anorexia Nervosa and had a feeding tube inserted through my nose into my stomach. I was released a month later after reaching my target weight. I’m still suffering from Anorexia now.(I’m 18)

Last year in April, I had a panic attack and freaked out. My mother called the cops on me, which led to them calling an ambulance and I was put on suicide watch in the ER. I was then sent to a pyschiatric unit for 9 days.
Not to mention the drug rehab I’ve been to twice and the 3 almost fatal suicide attempts.

But I keep thinking about the mental hospitals and being sectioned. It makes me very upset and paranoid. Could this be some sort of post-traumatic stress disorder?
I’m at a “normal” weight right now. I’m 5’8 and I weigh 123lbs at this exact moment. I’m still focused on losing about 10 more before spring break.

I’m taking Welbutrin XL, Lamictal, Adderall and Ambien at the moment. I haven’t discussed these feelings with anyone yet just because I have so many more issues. I don’t want anyone to say “great, something else to deal with.”
Yea. Me and my parents have a horrible relationship. I was diagnosed BPD, ADHD and I have an anxiety disorder, but due to past abuse of Xanax, I can’t take any anxiety meds. Thank you for the advice and support. I just can’t stop thinking about it. It is effecting my life way too much.

Just a little taste of what is in the link…..”we” all could tell that they were bleeping out the words mom and dad….except for SOME people!!
ll that and I forget to put it in…..
“Chi Chi, I did notice the “Mom” bleeps. Very strange indeed, because we could all figure out what she was saying. I also agree that the show is playing a dangerous game because of the actual problems the celebrities are dealing with.”

Am I a bad daughter for letting my step father keep me from visiting my mom’s home?

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

My step father is an alcoholic and he has never been a nice guy to me and my siblings. I am 28, my sibs are 26 and 20. My mother stays at home, and babysits my kids (2 and 10) when they’re not in school. During one day, my step father took my 2 year old daughter to their farm and proceeded to drink beer and whiskey until he was drunk. My mother came to the farm to check on them and found him drunk and cursing with my daughter. He has had many violent episodes during his drinking binges in the past so this scared me. I have kept my kids from him and their farm ever since. I allow my mom to visit my kids at my house, but my step father is not allowed around me or my kids. I have forgiven my step father, but have chosen to keep him out of our lives. Is that fair to my mom?

how to keep future mother in law from taking gf’s car?

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010

My girlfriend has a drug addict mom who always takes her car whenever she isn’t looking. Is there any simple way to prevent her from doing this? Her mom has created a copy to my girlfriend’s car so all i’m wondering is there a simple way to make it harder for her to take the car so she just gives up and forgets about it. I know a steering club would do but can i take out a fuse or something from the ignition?
