17-year-old refuses to cook meals for his estranged 28-year-old brother and his 3 kids after he ignored him his entire life: ‘He ignores my birthdays, he ignores me at Christmas, he never invites me to parties.’

Why should a teenager take care of somebody 11 years his senior? We all have those family members who need help. Whether that be with housing, mental health, or making a steady income, it’s clear that they can’t fully take care of themselves in the way they ought to. It’s difficult to know exactly how …

Mom forces 16-year-old daughter to take 700 mg of magnesium per day, gets angry when doctor agrees with daughter’s claim that she should only take 350 mg a day: ‘I turned to my mom and said «I told you so.»‘

Someone needed to tell her she was wrong, and she wasn’t going to listen to her daughter. No matter how much school you’ve attended and how many years you’ve practiced as a doctor, there will always be some mom with an internet connection who thinks she knows better about medicine than you. It’s not a …

16-year-old homeschooler refuses to speak to her parents until they enroll her in public school: ‘They didn’t teach me anything, I only know the very basics that you would give a kindergartener.’

She’s making pretty reasonable demands. Extreme circumstances require extreme measures to be taken. Being unable to do basic math at 16 is a pretty extreme circumstance, and a teenager in that situation will likely be desperate to obtain an education by any means necessary. That could include getting emancipated from their parents so they can …

Mom gifts 16-year-old daughter a waxing kit for her birthday, cries when she’s not excited about it: ‘I guess I’m just the worst mom ever.’

Not every gift is given with good intentions. Have you ever received a gift that was a thinly veiled insult?

She deserves to feel safe in her own home. Not everybody is a homebody by nature. Many people prefer to be in and out of the house as quickly as possible, only going home to sleep and perhaps eat breakfast. I’ve been like that for most of my adult life, and it’s not because I …
