I moved to California and drove my car from Massachusetts in August.
I am graduating with an AA degree this semester and am either going to move to Oregon or stay in California.
Is it illegal for my car to be in the state with Massachusetts plates and me with a Massachusetts license? When do I need to start worrying about this stuff?
My car is registered in my dad’s name because I got it as a 16th birthday present but it is my car. He recently renewed the registration under his old Massachusetts address but he moved to Washington.
If he renewed it again with the Massachusetts address would it go unnoticed like it is now? Do I need to establish residency in California to have my car legally in California? How do I establish residency? Can I just stay a Massachusetts citizen with a Massachusetts license plate if I am only out west during college semesters?
Thanks guys I always best answer. I don’t expect anyone to actually know these things, but anything relevant would be great!
he left 3 hours ago saying that he was ONLY going to the “grocery store”. he does this every night! he always goes out to the bar. HE KEEPS LYING TO ME! im so sad right now. i keep telling my dad to stop lying to me because itll only make things worse. my mom left 4 years ago because of his drinking problem and i never saw her again. = [ i dont know what to say to him anymore. i dont know what to do! he comes home and passes out on the couch EVERY NIGHT!! whenever i try to talk to him about it, he yells at me and starts slamming things. he gets REALLY scary when hes drunk. a month ago, he came home and started throwing forks and knives against the walls and stuff. i was scared that they could have hit me! i dont have any family member to call for help when he gets like that. or a close neighbor to run to. my dads really nice when he hasnt been drinking. thats why i dont want to call a “children of alcoholics” hotline.

I have to say that if I were an alcoholic (like my father) there is no way I could NOT realize something was wrong. He is an absolute drunk and has been since I was born (25 years ago) but he REFUSES to believe there is anything wrong with him. How can he not realize he’s a raging drunk? He falls asleep in bars, falls asleep in his car, falls off of chairs, forgets everything from the night before, has ruined his relationship with my sister and I and cheated on my mom due to drinking. WTF?
I had a dream the other night and I can hardly remember it, but… in general, here’s a basic break-down of it all:
I find myself being pulled by the wrist down a flight of stairs by a character from a novel I’m working on (fairly normal for me), Frankie. She tells me I have to be quiet or else he’ll find me so I’m already sent into a stage of confusion. I then wake up within the dream to find myself being tied to a bed with a blindfold over me and a gag in my mouth stripped of all but my undergarments. I hear my dad’s voice and his breathing against my neck as he begins the dreadful foreplay. He makes me smell this stuff so that fall back asleep in the dream. I then dream within the dream of Frankie and I trying desperately again to escape. I wake up again after he rapes me and I am now in the bathroom with only a towel. That kind of stuff went off and on including Sherlock Holmes trying to get me out in my hallucinations… o.O
It was the scariest thing EVER. My dad was a sex-addict who had raped my mom in the past and after some physical abuse from him when I would visit after their divorce and some possible sexual assault including rape while I was under. I don’t see him any more, but still…
In the past two years I have lost my father, underwent an enormous home renovation while living there, had a breast cancer scare, lost my year old granddaugther when her mother abruptly moved away with her, put my son through drug rehab for cocaine addiction, lost my job of 9 years and am now looking for a new one, my second son decided to live with his father, I will be turning 50 next week and my husband and I are separated because he feels I haven’t been there for him. My extended family all lives 1200 miles away and my few friends I have locally are married with busy lives of their own. I feel so alone and depressed. I don’t know how to handle all of this. I cry all the time despite the fact that I exercise regularly and eat healthfully. I go to church but dont know how to fit in. It seems no one really needs friends but me. I’m certain there are others out there who do, but I don’t know how to find them. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
hi im 14 and my dad is an Anonymous Alcoholic and he hasn’t drank in 7 years nore done any drug since. My mother never has tried a drug, But i have and i like smoking marijuana and the fact is that i want to tell them the truth that i smoke it and drink alcohol but its just i don’t know how to do it.
Hi, I was just wondering how adults thought of childhood. Because my dad always tells me that he misses it and wished he could have done more. Was it really the greatest time of your life?
positive answers, no like “do meth, and my dad beat me”
I am in love with this man with the deepest of my soul? overkill
Excerpts from a powerful documentary produced by WCOT in Tallahassee, FL detailing the dangers of drinking and driving. The program follows the story of Eric Smallridge, a young Tallahassee man who is currently serving a 22-year sentence for the death of two young women in a car accident when he was driving under the influence. The piece looks at the story from all angles, talking to Eric, his parents and the families of the victims showing how many lives were shattered in an instant, with the decision to drink and drive.
My dad had a jury trial this morning. He was facing a DUI, driving with no insurance, driving without a valid license, failure to stay in a lane, and some more I can’t remember. He hasn’t told anyone about this so the only way I get info is online. On the website it says he has to “return for PSI” in September. Does any one know what this means. If you don’t please don’t answer. Thank you

The story “Because My Father Always Said He Was the Only Indian Who saw Jimi Hendrix Play ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ at Woodstock” by Sherman Alexie displays several issues Native Americans face everyday. In this story Alexie touches on how alcoholism and other social issues prevent Native American families from having positive relationships. Victor’s dad becomes a victim of American society, therefore he becomes an alcoholic and leaves his family even if this was a rare occurrence in the Native American culture.
The biggest issue Victor’s parents had was Alcoholism. It seems like alcohol is the main reason nothing in the family is working out. It is one of the reasons Victor’s dad is not there for him a lot, and at the same time it’s one of the reasons why Victor’s parents relationship did not work out. One can not help but think of how alcohol can disrupt a family and cause nothing but turmoil. When his dad’s favorite musician Jimi Hendrix came over to drink with him, Victor’s dad would drink so much that he would pass out on the kitchen floor and Victor would sleep right next to him. “My father would weep, attempt to hum along with Jimi, and then pass out with his head on the kitchen table”. Victor’s dad just showed no responsibility what so ever. Doing all of this in front of his child obviously meant that he cared more about his pleasure than his son’s future. The chances of being an alcoholic like Victor’s dad and having a functional family are slim. Alcohol addictions is families often causes both psychological and physical abuse and the effect it has on everyone in the family is huge. “An alcoholic can totally disrupt family life and cause harmful effects that can last a lifetime.” (Parsons) In this story, Victor represents the thousands of children in America that are victims of family abuse to Alcohol. “According to U. S. Department of Health and Human Services and SAMHSA’s (Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration) National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and Drug Information, seventy six million American adults have been exposed to alcoholism in the family.” (Parsons). These staggering statistics show that this is a serious issue, one which has to be solved one way or another.
Victor’s father makes some poor decisions as a father, but at the same time is a victim of the American society. Native Americans tend to get trapped in American culture because drinking alcohol is looked at as no big deal, but because Native Americans are not used to it, it affects them much worse. According to Cheryl Hissong alcohol is a big dilemma in the Native American everyday lives. “But the price of alcohol continues to be felt in today’s Native American culture and everyday life. As more and more of the Native culture and heritage became lost in the modernizing effects of European colonization, many Native Americans found themselves caught in limbo between two worlds.” This story shows pieces of this idea Hissong has. Victor’s family is an Indian family which has its own culture slowly adapting to the American lifestyle.
In the story, Victor’s dad starts getting used to American society and starts to forget about his own culture and heritage. A couple of different parts of the story show that Victor’s father is losing his Native American cultural identity. At one point in the story, Victor’s father is talking to his son about music and how Native American children are so used to hearing drums that they think that is all they need. “You think that’s all you need, Hell, son, even an Indian needs a piano or guitar or saxophone now and again.” Victor’s father is accepting these American musical instruments, and is not trying to maintain his identity as a Native American anymore. His father does not follow tradition when the marriage with Victor’s mother does not work out. Victor compares break ups in a Native American marriage a hundred years ago to a more modern break up which his parents go through. “A hundred years ago, an Indian marriage was broken easily. The woman or man just packed up all their possessions and left the tipi. There were no arguments, no discussions. Now, Indians fight their way to the end, holding onto the last good thing, because our whole lives have to do with survival.” His parents have obviously adapted to a new lifestyle, a more “modren” one in which the couples fight and get into arguments before they separate. They are not following tradition of separating peacefully, because they are forgetting about their culture and adapting to the American way of doing things.
Victor’s parents relationship was not a positive one at all. One of the biggest family problems with alcoholics is violence and there was a lot of it in their relationship. They fought constantly. Victor mentions that them making love at night makes up for all of the fighting. “I know exactly what it sounds like when my parents are touching each other. It makes up for knowing exactly what they sound like wh
I have to say that if I were an alcoholic (like my father) there is no way I could NOT realize something was wrong. He is an absolute drunk and has been since I was born (25 years ago) but he REFUSES to believe there is anything wrong with him. How can he not realize he’s a raging drunk?

PSYCHOLOGY COLLABORATIVE LEARNING APPLICATION?
CAN SOME ONE TELL ME WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG WITH AMY?
Amy is an 11 month old girl. her mother is a recovering cocaine addict and her father is currently working in the fields. the couple fought a lot while Amy’s mother pregnancy. the arguments consisted of loud yelling, but occasionally involved some pushing and shoving. Amy was a very fussy baby but her physical development seems normal. she doesn’t babble the way other babies her age usually do and shows little interest in socializing.
I’m 20 years old and I’m in school to become a teacher. I am looking for some opinions on some situations I’m going through.
a) I spend the night at my boyfriend’s house often and when he doesn’t want me to I get very very angry. I tend to throw things and say things I really don’t mean but I say them before I even have time to think about it. I admitt that I stress out easily and I’m a very angry preson. How can I stop being so angry all the time? And does anyone know of ways to not be so clingy? I know it sounds simple to just do other things besides be with him all the time but when it’s time for me to leave at night I just can’t. I don’t want to leave. Any ideas or opinions?
b) My mother is an alcoholic. She has been for about 4 or 5 years since she cheated on my dad and left. I understand that they never got along because up until a year or so before she left, my dad was an alcoholic. But she’s been in and out of jail, she drinks everyday, and everytime she tries to stop she just starts drinking again. Now she has nowhere to sleep sometimes so she stays in my car and I do her laundry. How can I help her? I feel guilty and angry at her at the same time. I’ve searched online for clinics or rehabs but they all cost money and I partly feel that I shouldn’t have to help her because I can barely pay my own bills. I pay for everything myself and I also pay for some of my boyfriend’s bills because he can’t find a job. I feel really stressed out and have been crying a lot lately. What are my options or does anyone have any experience in this situation?
i have had dreams about my mom my sisters and my sisters in laws i am i wrong or could it be normal? Also when i was 14 i met my dads side of the family because he got out of prision for making meth and i would masterbate to the thought of my sister often but i dont do that anymore do i need help?
I always best answer. I don’t expect anyone to actually know these things, but anything relevant would be great!
