  • Do I have ANY rights to do this at all?

    I'm 18 and living with my family still but I'm also struggling looking for a job. I start college in September but until then i have no money to even look for work, I suggested to my parents to go on Job Seekers Allowance since i am entitled to it but they said no because they don't want anyone on benefits, to be honest i don't want to either but my options are limited since i can't find a job and I'm trying as hard as i can. Do I have any right to go against my parents and claim? They also said that if i did claim i would have to move out but i have no where to go. Somebody help please?

  • Why does my dad treat me like this?

    I'm 18 and i go to college almost everyday. I've never smoked, never touched drugs. Not pregnant, i don't drink and i don't get into trouble. All i do is study, read and watch anime in my spare time.

    However my dad treats me like dirt, he calls me an emo (which I'm not) says I'm weird because I'm not getting drunk or pregnant 'like most 18 year old girls' he calls me fat and because i have short hair he calls me a man.

    Why do i get this all the time? I don't do anything wrong and i get crap for it.

    He's also started playing mind games with me (saying something then denying it, making out that i live in a fantasy world) but he's slipped up a little and my mum has noticed but yet she sits there and chooses to ignore it.

    I don't know why he treats me like this or what to do.

  • Help from Japanese speakers (preferably native but anyone who can read Kanji is fine)?

    I'm getting a Tattoo and it will say this :

    ああ ひと筆で

    見える素晴らしい世界

    (Which I'm sure that it roughly translates into 'Ah, What a wonderful world, that can only be seen with a paintbrush)

    But I was wondering (because of the Japanese writing styles) would it stay as it is? Or would it go down or left to right or right to left?

    Thanks ^J^

  • My family treat me like dirt.?

    Hi, i know i asked a few questions similar but now things are getting out of control.

    My parents treat me like crap, they are manipulative, deceptive, cruel and just generally are horrible people.

    They both verbally abuse me, call me names and destroy any shed of confidence or self esteem i have, my mum tells me how much of an 'evil vindictive little ****' i am who is a waste of tax payers money and thinks she is so superior to me because she's going to university, she tries to start arguments all the time over nothing and hates that i will give an explanation for my actions. Now she has gone so far as to stop me from eating and drinking because 'i pay for everything, you are a waste of resources'

    My dad is similar apart from he spends all his time on the computer on COD or looking up and chatting to young girls around my age (I'm 18) and flirting, he'll get angry over nothing and start screaming and shouting at me, telling me how I'm a waste of space and both tell me they're finished with me and want nothing to do with me.

    I have mo idea what I've done.

    I cant move out because i have no family and my friends cant take me in, i have no money, i cant get a job because i have little to no qualifications, i cant call childline because I'm not a child anymore, the council cant give me a house because I'm already on a waiting list and i have 3 years until they can find a place and there are no hostels or homeless shelters around me.

    I don't know what to do, i feel like in trapped and things are getting worse because my brothers and sisters are joining in, plus i start college in 4 days but i have no way of getting there or anything.

    I suffer from depression, social anxiety, misanthropy and they know this but insist on 'tapped in the head'

  • I don't know what to do about my parents?

    I'm 18 and live with my parents along with my younglings (younger siblings) and my parents are just horrible to me

    my dad is just a perv and keeps porn put in the open from deviantart, he's always aggressive and will lose his mind over simple things say, i use the computer, he spends more time on COD building maps and stuff than he will spend with his own kids and will scream and shout and swear at us if he loses a match.

    My mum is just as bad, she's manipulative and thinks she's better than everyone else because she's going to university and rubs it in mu face by saying 'you don't try nearly enough, not like i did' when i struggle on my GCSES and only got D's and C's but i really did try my hardest and studied for hours every night .

    I was diagnosed as having severe depression, social anxiety and misanthropy which is caused by low self esteem and confidence, and yet my parents know about this but all they do is tell me it's my fault and that i need to change my personality and the way i dress and how i look.

    it really gets me down and i don't know what to do, i cant move out because i have no extended family and I'm kind of poor.

  • Why am i always failing?

    I just got my GCSE results and it was all D's i try really hard and spend hours studying every night and i even went into college early so i could fit in more time to study, I'm 18 and i really want to do my A levels but i fear i will never be able to get the grades i need.

    I have been diagnosed with severe depression, social anxiety, misanthropy and low self esteem and confidence but i feel that i use them as excuses, i know I'm not stupid, my knowledge when being asked questions left my teacher amazed by my answers, i don't know how i can pass, plus, is it normal that a 19 year old would be still trying to pass their GCSES?

  • Ami the person that's done wrong or him?

    I was with my boyfriend for 6 months but he left me for this other girl, while he was with this girl (who he's with now and they have a kid together) he was seeing me but i didn't know it at the time but then he was single for a while then came back to me but was also seeing this girl plus another girl, he promised me he's stay with me but went with her, i fee ile I'm the one that's done something wrong. I know he cheated on me because several people told me

    I'd like to hear from an outside source whether i have done something wrong or whether it was him.

  • Would there ever be a situation where doctors would leave you to die?

    Hi, I'm writing a summer assignment and would like to know,

    If someone was in a serious accident, for example a motorcycle accident and said victim was mangled and dying and their body was damaged beyond repair, would Doctors simply leave you to die if they knew you were going to die within the hour anyway? And if so or not, what would they tell family members?

  • I need help, I don't know what to do.?

    I'm 18 and i can't get a job because i have no money towards transport and i cant walk to the town because its a dangerous route along a busy road with no path so i applied for income support.

    The problem is that my mum hates it because that means she has no control over me anymore because i relied on her for transport costs but she's refusing to lend me money. But i also need this money to go to college and pay for the expenses there.

    But she's kicking me out because of it and i have no family and my friends live with their parents so i don't have anywhere to go

    I don't know what to do because if i give up the income support mt mum regains full control over every aspect of my life and i cant go to college or to find a job but if i keep the income support im homeless (and she means it, she kicked me out of the house when i was 16 for a year and a half, i lived with leap but i cant live there again)

  • do you think this is normal behavior for a father?

    Hi, I'm 18 and have been wondering this for a while.

    My dad spends all of his time playing video games like COD with people my age but doesn't show interest in me or my siblings and never have, he always puts his **** in his daughters (including myself) faces. He's cheated on my mum and tried to do it again but was caught, me and him both have accounts on DeviantArt, i checked his page and he freely uploads and downloads porn.

    He's always shouting, especially towards me, but he's also sexist for example he told me that my place is in the kitchen and will take any chance to ridicule me like if i get a haircut he'll call me a lesbian.

    I just want to know if other peoples fathers are like this and if this is normal, im not too sure that it is.

  • What do you think of this Manga Plotline?

    After i ahve finished my other Manga that I'm working on, I am thinking of creating a Manga that is based sort of like Eurovision song contest.

    Accept from apart from Europe, it will be a world event and instead of groups the countries will be represented by one person. But the 'Countries' sort of have difficulties getting along.

    It then goes into a plot where the 'Countires' try to sabotage each other which, if they are caught, they are disqualified + a 1 million dollar/ pound/ yen/ euro etc fine

    The prize will be; hosting the next 'Nations Harmony' and the Countrys debt will be wiped.

    What do you think?

  • Cosplay Help - Hetalia (Yao Wang) China in UK?

    Hi, I have tickets to AlCon and I'm planning to Cosplay as China (Yao Wang) from Hetalia.

    But I've noticed that in the UK there aren't alot of places that sell them - I've tried TokyoToy and CosplayFu but they're either too expensive, don't sell them, or don't sell the right colour.

    Does anyone have any tips on either how to make it (E.g What does he wear like where can you buy the type of jacket he wears?) or an outlet that doesn't require tailor made fitting that will take longer and effectively cost more?

    Thank You - Aru!

    Just out of curiosity - Do you prefer to read Manga if it has been shaded or if it is just the outline of the characters and setting? And why?

    If you think it looks better shaded, what type? Block shaded, detailed shaded etc.

  • What (If any) is this plotline known as?

    I'm writing a Manga and writing a synopsis for said Manga but i need to know-

    What is the name of a plotline where one character makes a deal etc to see what life would be like if they had taken a different route.

    For example - In Shrek 4

    In my plot the characters go through a long storyline then through to their lives from childhood to death but the main character (who is supposed to be dead) wakes up to reveal that everything that happened was a premonition or some form of fortune telling and so changes everything that she knows ig going to happen which affects the lives of everyone.

    Do you have any ideas what plotline this maybe? Or it may not even have a name i was just curious ^.^

    Thank you for your time.

  • Is it normal to have a hatred towards people?

    I'm 17 and i know it seems like a highly ironic thing because I'm a person myself but i just have a strong hatred towards people, their attitudes etc.

    I don't know why i feel this way but i just feel that the planet as a population is over-crowded with people who give little to no contribution.

    I just think that people in general are backstabbing, vindictive, spiteful, biggotted and above all untrustworthy. It may just be me hating my genoration because i'm sure it's no secret that most of my genoration are complete idiots who lust to become viral and famous.

    The thing is that i like being iscolated (not litterally) i love being on my own and i get uncomfortable/angry in social situations and can't stand to be in a room full of people without imagining how i could hurt, mutilate or even kill them.

    Have i just got an evil mind or could it be that i maybe more mature than most?

    I was just wondering, Why is it people make the assumption that if you are good at maths then you are classed as being 'automatically smart'

    I know that maths make the foundation of our everyday lives but I'm dyscalculus (dyslexic with numbers) so it's hard to do maths and because of that people assume that I'm stupid.

    I know I'm not a genius but i know I'm not completely stupid either but i just want to know, Is it possible to be smart but not good at mathematics and such?

  • Should i take this as a compliment or a theft?

    I posted on Yahoo Answers a few weeks ago about a story line i have for a graphic novel, it was the synopsis of the plot i have sent off and i noticed that the very same day a guy copied and pasted the whole text onto a forum website titled 'What do you think of this story-line for a manga'?

    But it was all my work and i feel a little cheated, should i take it as a compliment that it was good so he decided to steal it? The reviews for it that were given were really good though and I'm abit worried that he might pass it off as his own.
