An English professor wrote the following words on the board and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.
"A woman without her man is nothing"
All the males in the class wrote:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."
All the females in the class wrote:
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."
Punctuation is powerful
If your DH only gets 4 days a month visitation, how much parenting do you expect him to do? I am on the fence on this one.
I tried to look at it from DH’s point, and I do get it. I guess you have to pick and choose your battles. If the kid tells you to F off, then they do need a punishment. If the kid will not eat his spinach, then I don’t see the big deal.
Yesterday when FDH and I dropped off SS2, he said "i love you" as he was walking away, and BM said "i love you too...oh, you were talking to (SS2)"
ugh. she aggravates me, and she has been doing stuff like this lately...i Just don't get it..
FDH and I are SO perfectly happy, and for the short time that he and her were actually together, he tried to spend as little time with her as he could because she was nuts and absolutely rude to him....I don't see what about that would be appealing...
ugh
I am reading another board (not a step board) anyway someone posted about their niece is getting divorced and that they had their kids bday party together and their home. He moved out and she has a bf that was also there. Anyway she was saying how weird it was and all the tension.
My SS5 is not talking very well yet. We have him in speech therapy and all the right programs, but it is difficult to understand him, and he’ll often mumble or point. We’re doing what we can to encourage him to use words.
Hello, I am a 27 year old dating a man with an 11 year old son from his prior marriage. I have no children of my own and not sure he wants another one anytime soon. We have been living together for over a year and SS has been living with us full-time for almost a year now.
I have taken on the "mom" role and naively thought that just maybe if I showed my boyfriend how great of a mom I can be he would propose and we would have a baby. Hasn't happened. I think this is a major reason why this feeling of resentment has been creeping up on me these past few weeks.
Well - I am new to this site and hoping it will help. I have a hard time ignoring all the things I am asked to ignore or "get over" and maybe having a place to vent will help.
BM is getting ready to move out of state about 800 miles away. She won't agree to a schedule of keeping the kids for spring break and the summer because she refuses any schedule that involves her paying child support. My FH plans to file a motion as soon as she leaves, but he's pretty sure she won't even tell him when she's leaving and she'll most likely refuse to give him her address.
Well we had a very good weekend. The skids were really good I didn't have to get on to them once. And we got a surprise which was my dh's gma! She lives in FL. and we are in Ar.
My MIL had a treasure hunt with our gifts, you should have seen 18 people looking in a cabin for clues! LOL
This is from a totally different perspective but one I think a lot of us can relate to. I have been really sick lately and I have been thinking about what would happen if I died. I know my Ex's girlfriend does not like my child and thinks she is spoiled. She is also pregnant and she and my ex are going to counseling to try and work it out. I have told my ex to stop taking my daughters side all the time and let his GF have some say in the parenting. He gets upset if she tells my daughter to chew with her mouth closed, stop bugging the cat etc...
