Re: Abuse at Home

On one level or another you are allowing what you're family is doing to you.  Families can get pretty vicious at times.

One thing you can do is - if it's your computer you can insert the original operating system and reboot the disk, and assign your account as the administrator account and set all other accounts to Parental Controls.  Make sure you back up all of your files before doing this because it will wipe everything out - including their information.  If that's too drastic then go buy yourself a new computer (they begin at Costco under $400 and you get a good warranty), make your account the administrator and lock out everyone else.  You're going to have family consequences if you do this so the choice is yours and it might cost you a wedding.  However, if you wish to stop taking the crap you're currently getting you're the one who is going to have to stand up for yourself.

Families can truly be vicious - that's why I divorced mine.
