- This has nothing to do with my ES or all that recently happened, but I feel the need to share this anyway to hopefully prevent a tragedy to anyone. This weekend my husband and I decided to spend mothers day at our cabin in the woods. It is an off...
- I just want to thank everyone who offered advice over my most recent saga, and even if you didn't post, for your prayers and thoughts anyway. I won't be rushing to Arkansas to see the grands anytime soon. Too many demands, ridiculous ultimatums,...
- Instead of just updating my previous post I decided to start a new thread entirely. Well, after I met their demands to defriend those two poor innocent women, which I did, and they issued new demands, my husband told him that it was a lot to...
- Most of you know my sad story and how my ES and DIL sent those terrible emails in January. The first one was from my son to my husband saying he and only he could be allowed to come to Arkansas to see the children. Mind you, none of us has ever...
- When before the throne we stand in Him complete, all the riddles that puzzle us here will fall into place and we shall know in fulfillment what we now believe in faith---that all things work together for good in His eternal purpose. No longer will...
- Warning...this has nothing to do with my estranged son. I hope that is ok. I am telling you because I am hurting and I need prayer and support. Please bear with me. On Thursday morning my daughter came over and told me the worst thing....her...
- Pretty sure this has been addressed before, but indulge me. Do any of your estranged children profess to be Christians? And if so, what are your feelings on this. My son, who is now 30, made a profession of faith when he was 9 years old, and was...
- Last night my husband asked me if I wanted to see a recent picture of our ES. He said that someone he knows was able to get into Facebook to see it, so she somehow forwarded the picture to him. So I said sure, and he showed me the picture. In the...
- Now I got an email...this one from the DIL. She told me I should have never sent that Christmas card, that my son's email in September was very plain that he/they wanted no contact EVER and I have "blown it big time" of ever seeing the...
- Well...I had been doing so well. Most of you know my sad story....total estrangement from son #2, then in May an impromptu visit which went so well, then silence, then the hateful email in September saying he wanted no more contact, and to quit...
- Last night I had my monthly Bunco club, and right smack in the middle of it one of the women (who goes to my church and knows my story) asked, "Did your son get to come on Christmas?" Notice she used the word "get". My daughter who is also in the...
- No, I didn't come up with that on my own. Theodore Roosevelt actually did, but I find it as applicable today as when he coined that phrase. And I think it really particularly applies to us. Maybe even moreso, now that we have the age of social...
- A few weeks ago I asked everyone's opinions concerning Christmas gifts for my two grandsons from my ES. He had told me back in September he absolutely wanted no more contact and to stop sending gifts because they "cause pain". Many of you chimed...
- I am not sure anyone has brought this up before, and I almost hate to, but you know me....if I am burdened about something I feel better getting it out there. Have any of you ever had the thought that maybe, just maybe, your own child could do harm...
- My one year anniversary of joining this site is rapidly approaching and I can't help but contrast how I feel now with how I felt then. It was early December, and for the first time in his life, I did not hang ES's stocking up with the others. I...
