I have an adult daughter who is in an abusive relationship. He was arrested for physically abusing her in April 2006 and there was a order of protection issued. He hit her at a party and then left the party and called 911 three times and reported her kidnapped. He called her from jail and she picked him up. He has been living with her ever since. According to his probation, he is to attend anger management classes and to keep the court apprised of his address. My daughter is a traveling nurse and he does not work. He gambles with her money. They recently moved and the court has no way to track him because everything is in her name. Should I inform the District Attorney of his location or should I mind my own business??? Comments from viewers appreciated.

I just watched the show about out of control teens. The first guest sounds so much like what is going on in our home right now.Our 15 year old daughter is so angry all the time. I can't say anything without her yelling and being very rude to me. My husband mostly ignores it so he doesn't have to deal with her. She is also in a gay relationship, but just like your guest, Candace, claims to be just friends.I hope this is all a phase, as some people have suggested, and we get back to normal soon.

I am a mother of 5. And I have been divorced twice. I was molested as a child by my grandfather. I have had counseling for that and been through a lot in life. I met my third husband online and truely love him. But there has been some major changes for all of us. I dont even know where to start. I have felt depressed lately. A lot has happened in just a year that I want to forget and just move on. How can I share my story and get some advise? I want to share the whole story, so you can understand a little more. But it would take a lot of writing, which I dont mind, but does anyone want to do a lot of reading?

My mother is a single mother of three.I am the first child and my little brothers are giving my mother problems.My brothers are 11 & 12 years old.My brothers are pigs because you have to tell to do things or they won't do it.they find ways to make my mother mad and soon their going hurt by me if they don't start to follow.I guess their mad at my mom for taking my dad away and are trying to find revenge.I want to make mom solve this problem so we con live in a more happier home.

I am a single mom. I get financial help just barely and I do not get any other kind of help from my ex husband. If I tell him there is a problem, he tells the boys to behave so he doesn't have to hear from me anymore. He doesn't help me get them anywhere I cannot count on him for help with his own children. It is always he doesn't have enough money for gas to pick them up for anything. I feel stressed. I am eating over it and I am feeling depressed. My best friend passed away and my ex sister-in-law passed away in the same year. They were the people I talked to.

My son told my mother, "My mom's out of control".

Dear Dr.Keith, I just happen to watch your show on step-parents and their children and boy did that really hit home. I have come a long way with my husband and my step children we still have so many past and present issues to deal with, sometimes when I truely think things are getting better it turns around and kick's me back in the butt. I had to grow up and realize that i needed to except responsiability for my actions in the whole sitiuation, but it seems as though no one is willing to meet me even 1% of the way and it really hurt's, me and my husband had really consider therapy for the family, but our finance's would not allow it to happen, and on that note I found myself depressed quit often, and I alway's seem to get the advise from everyone that i'am doing it to myself, hey when your constantly hearing it from everyone all the time how could they possibly be wrong? I just wanted to let you no that I really connected with your show and look forward to watching it in the future. Thank you, you never know just who your connecting with!

Hello if you can help me figure out teenagers I would appreciate it. I would like to ask you on how to help my teenager to succeed in life when she had a not the advantage to do so. My husband and I are both disabled and she got rooked how do I give her the chance in life when I don't have the money to help her get the start she needs, I feel like I rooked her as a mom
Thanks for you're time

Smile, how the heck do you put up with that?!!! I just couldn't! Maybe that's why I attracted a guy that never would. We all have limits that we subconsciously have. My Mom was once married to someone that sounds like your husband. Rather than spending time on the computer, he would spend it at the bar though. I guess I saw enough sadness to never ever allow this to happen to me and programmed my subconscious accordingly. She's now married to a man that's quite the opposite.

Good luck with working things out and making your husband come to his senses before it's too late.

My husband doesn't involve himself in our family of two boys, he works, sleeps irregular hours and goes on the computer. Then, after all day doing this, he wants to have sex. Please help!
