- So......He comes home from work (I was off today) and I am in the kitchen cooking dinner. It is obvious he is in a mood when he walks in because he starts yelling at me about the fact that I put three bags of trash in the foyer to be taken to the...
- Okay, I'm not sure I even belong here, but I started reading this forum and it struck a chord. So here goes...a long story, which I will try to make shorter. My youngest daughter was a perfect baby; I know all parents say that, but she was an...
- So, I haven't been reacting to his tantrums. Last night he decided to turn the TV off while I was watching it because it was annoying him. (Mind you he falls asleep with it on every night and it was only 9:15). Anyway, I refused to argue with him,...
- Hi all. I have been off for awhile; staying busy and avoiding the inevitable. For the past month I have been working through the book "should I stay of should I go" and honestly working on myself for the first time. I have left my relationship...
- Is it possible for someone who has been abusive in every way imaginable for 17 years to suddenly have an epiphany and do a complete turnaround? Does it even matter?For those of you who have followed and supported me, you know the gist of our...
- I got stuck at work late tonight. We couldn't figure out why our credit cards were .20 off (yes, just 20 cents!) and we can't leave until everything balances. I was supposed to get off at 5, we closed at 6, but here it was 6:20 and I'm still there...
- Okay, couldn't figure out what has been wrong with him for the past two weeks. He called me at work today (the first time he has EVER called my job). When I get on the phone he casually asks me if I've forgotten something. Of course, I am racking my...
- Everyone who has read my personal stories and rants knows that I have issues of my own--after all I have stayed and kept my kids in a volatile hell for so many years. I don't kid myself that I know ANY of the answers. Why, then, is it so difficult...
- Sorry, this is going to be kind of long because I need to give some background just to get an opinion on whether I am being paranoid or whether this is really possible and what do I do?Ever since my h and I got together cars have been an issue. He...
- So, I am trying really hard to decide if I am being "that" mom; it my personal fears of relationship issues are biasing my opinion; or if there really is a problem here--and how to help him through it if there is. My son is 17, due to all the issues...
- I realized yesterday that I am just really tired--exhausted actually--from trying to be "superwoman" and hold it together. I don't know how many more days I can keep on working full time, taking classes for my Bachelors, shuttling kids to and from...
- I have a 12 year old daughter who I was just informed by her pediatrician that she is morbidly obese. I am ashamed that I let her get to this point; I knew she was overweight, but I didn't realize just how overweight she was. Her sister was a little...
- I have three children who have all been in public school their entire "careers". My youngest, who just started the 7th grade has been having some issues; she finally broke down in tears on Friday and told me she has been being picked on for the last...
- Sorry, I'm off work today and instead of doing the things I "should" be doing, I'm sitting here reading posts and getting inside my own head for a while. I'm just wondering if anyone else has reached this point, and how do you get out of this...
- I used to feel sorry for him, thinking he didn't realize that the way he was acting was wrong (or maybe that I was the one in the wrong because he was perfectly justified.) I remembered an incident from about a month ago this morning that pretty...
