- I've been hit by another huge wave of grief this week and after taking a good look at myself I've decided to get some professional help because I am sick and tired of crying, whining and crying some more. Every time I feel like I've made a bit of...
- On an earlier post today I mentioned how my 7 year old grandson has been physically, emotionally and verbally abused by my ES GF, and how each meal is chock full of threats of withheld fun if he doesn't eat his food. ES has taken his ex-wife, the...

- My ES has my GS1 by ex-wife, GS2 and GD1 by current GF who despises his son by the ex-wife. GF has been physically abusive, jealous and intolerant of GS1 whom she met at the age of 2. Not like they met while GS1 was a rebel teenager at the time. ...
- I do a lot of networking to generate clientele and sometimes I'm asked about my family, such as # of kids or how I spent the holidays etc. Each time I feel caught off guard and unsure of how to answer the question. So I'd like to know how you...
- Tonight I was thinking of how dysfunctional my family is, not just between myself and my kids, but also the past generations. Way back to my great-grandparents, each of the families faced some sort of loss or severe illness that made them different...

- I took my first step to increase awareness of Grandparent Alienation. I found several sayings/images online that I posted for the public to see on my FB page. I don't care who sees it or what people think anymore. I've suffered in silence for far...

- I don't know if I vacillate in and out of denial about ES, wanting to blame only the women in his life, but that does seem to be the case. He and I were quite close when he was growing up. We could talk, laugh, joke, and he was always good to me. ...
- After eleven years and three grandkids whom been used as pawns to hurt me, I've come through Mother's Day with a sense of purpose. I'm a member of a networking group and one of my fellow members is a journalist. I'm going to enlist his help in...
- A friend and I took my mother to dinner tonight for Mother's Day and at one point the conversation turned to ES and EGKs. My mother and I have been like oil and water most of my life, but it seems this is the time for us to bond. I often think if...
