  • Mother-daughter issues, some advice needed?

    I'm having some trouble with my mom. If you see the question I have asked earlier, you'll know she usually hits me and my sisters, which is part of why I can never open up to her. I'm 14 years old and I get so frustrated when she expects me to tell her about my day. She's been gone for a long time and I was okay, but now she came back and she has already threatened to "give a big dirty slap" because I couldn't tell her the best stores to buy a prom dress (my sister is a senior).

    I feel so silenced sometimes because when I defend myself or say something she doesn't want to hear, she begins yelling and starts to threaten to hit me. If I continue, she'd actually hit me (sometimes I don't even get a warning). I notice that when she's around I cry a lot and I feel just so angry. I can't approach a topic with her because she usually begins to state her fact like it's an opinion or shoots me down. I don't have enough words to describe how I feel, but crummy is a start. I just wish she was as easy going as my friends' parents. Honestly, I feel happier and much more free when she's not around. I could never tell her how I truly feel because trust me, she'd never listen. I've already been to counseling about the hitting but it didn't help much. I'm counting the days until I'm 18 and out of the house, but until then, how can I cope with this horrible feeling towards her and myself?

  • Does anyone know a Hungarian epic hero?

    I need a Hungarian epic hero, someone who follows the all 8 characteristics. I've tried looking it up and I got some pretty short answers. Preferably just Hungarian (I saw some "south slavic" ones). Please provide a link so I can get some more information about them!

  • I'm stuck in Captive's Curse (Nancy Drew)?

    So I've been following this walkthrough: http://www.gameboomers.com/wtcheats/pcNn/ND24/ND24...

    I have done everything they've said. But I didn't get a call from Karl saying that Lukas is missing, and everytime I checked, Lukas is still there. I've spoken to everyone (including the people on the phone) until there was nothing left to say. I circled the castle many times and went into every room. I also walked all around the forest and passage ways. Is there a certain something that triggers Lukas's disappearance? Please help, I'm really close to the finish!

  • Does this count as abuse?

    I'm not asking for the least bit of sympathy. I'm just asking because I'm curious if corporal punishment really is abuse, and if I'm truly experiencing it.

    When I was young my mother would spank me and my sisters. Sometimes with her bare hands, and sometimes with a wooden mixing spoon. She did this when we misbehaved or when she got mad. She is short-tempered, and can switch moods pretty easily. I can clearly remember one time she was yelling and screaming at us when we came home soaked from the rain. She continuously hit us (and pulled on our ears). I thought that night would never end.

    Now I'm older (14) and she doesn't spank us anymore, she hits us. Recently I accidentally let the chicken burn while she was out fetching some food and when she came back she was screaming so much, she grabbed my arm towards her and slapped at my face and head. Then she did the same to my sister for just being there! It really gets scary.

    Besides the physical stuff, she usually says my sisters and I are "just as stupid as each other." She makes sarcastic remarks on our accents (our father is a different nationality) and creates strong opinions on our friends. She can't stop making fun of our hair. She also called me an idiot and an anorexic (which is 100% not true).

    I recently just got a new sister and my mother is already spanking her. It tears me apart when I hear the thud of when my mother's hand and my sister's tush connect, and the following wails. I think I can bare with the hitting but I don't want my baby sister to feel as rotten as I feel when my mother hits me.

    Sorry for writing a lot. I still love my mom dearly and my father doesn't support the spanking at all. I can't really tell my mom to stop otherwise she'll hit me. So do you think this is physical abuse or is this just disciplinary action? All answers are welcome. :D
