what would you tell a non disabled kid that says these things?

he’s 10. he tells his parents he hates them and to get the gun so he can kill himself. that he wants to kill himself when they tell him to do his homework or chores. or when he gets into trouble for misbehaving.

i want him to hear it from other people who are not as fortunate as him. he’s 10. has a loving family. lives in a nice home. smart and a good looking boy. has toys, bikes, getting a new video game system, a cell phone, has tons of friends, new clothes, nice new shoes, a hamster, gets an allowance lives in a nice home with a pool & spa. nice skateboard & bike and goes to skatepark with his dad every night. lives with a loving attentive dad and step mother. his mother lives 2 miles away and he sees her. he has no disabilities whatsoever. he has it made in a nice middle class family.

yahoo tell him like it is!
i know what you are saying about the spoiled thing. he gets tons attention his dad works from home and his stepmom is a stay at home mom and his real mom is 2 miles away and he sees her on the weekends and spare time. he is diciplined. he gets grounded, spanked if real bad, loses allowance, priviliges taken away. what im saying is that he is throwing out the im gonna kill myself card to throw a tantrum. we tell him hes acting like a spoiled brat and doesnt appreciate his stuff. i just want him to hear how lucky he is to be alive able bodied. coming from his parents it goes in one ear out the other.

Tired of my wife being slovenly and unromantic.?

I had worked with a lady at work who was very feminine and dress nice. She was always flirting with me and was interested in what I had to say. I know she did this to encourage me at work.

I told my wife that I should not be getting that kind of attration to other women. She is a stay at home mom and has alot of free time. Knowing her for 15 years, she only dress nice, fix her hair and wear makeup 5-10 times total. For her wedding she had makeup and never again for 9 years.

Going home, I see her hair messy, wearing baggy clothes and old clothes from high school/college (she’s 38) and never in a nice perm. No make up and constantly complain about how hard it is to stay at home, take care of the kids and constantly yell at kids on homework or me if I say something.

I told her some other women, work 9-5 and still finds the time to take care of the kids and themselves and still find romance. However she is very defiant and would complain about wearing make up or fixing up her hair.

I nicely recommended paying for a spa and a salon and she would complain her hair would come out or her face would crack from the chemicals from a facial. I volunteer to take care of the kids and let her go to the gym and she kept on making excuses that appearence is not important. She doesn’t like to take a date night to see a movie and complain about money despite we are doing pretty well.

Her sister would tell her that she should not have to be romantic or wear makeup and for her not to listen to me. However her sister would dress nice, wear makeup, workout and be romantic with her husband. Sometimes I feel her sister is sabotaging our marriage with bad advice.

I don’t know, just the thought of being married to a woman who doesn’t take care of herself, I am having second thoughts about my marriage. I don’t want to be married to a wife who acts like a man and doesn’t care about romance in the marriage. I don’t want the kids to have divorced parents, but I just can’t take it anymore.
It’s also very embarrasing for her to be so messy when we have company and for her mom and my dad to tell her to lose weight.
1) Gym. Won’t go because she wants to work 1 hour at the school to feel good about herself.

2) Spa. Won’t go because it’s too expensive and the chemicals from a facial can crack her skin.

3) Salon. Won’t go because a perm will make her lose all her hair. Full of germs.

4) Nice clothes. Won’t buy them because the "economy is bad" for the last 12 years. Still wears high/school/College clothes (she’s 39).

5) Date night. Won’t go because the economy is bad. Complains about money.

6) Makeup. Complains the "chemicals" are bad for her. So far that ain’t true.

7) Complains about money and mentions that my parents don’t help her with the kids as the reason about money.

Complains that we didn’t buy a million dollars home by her parents’ place.
