Ohh, I don't think so. She'll be milking this situation for every penny. These news make me sad. I hope Jamie-Lynn learned from her sister's example. On how not to parent, of course.

I'd dump my husband for Jonathan Rhys Meyers. Don't worry, he knows. :D

You have 2 beautiful daughters, and another on the way...so why keep remembering someone who was never even a part of the family? Evidently, for TAR and her family, Cherish was and is very much part of the family. People have different ways of dealing with loss and grief. I personally believe...

I don't think someone <I>must</I> reciprocate, but this woman evidently believes she must and I can understand why. I've been dirt poor in my life, and I remember how badly I felt when people helped us and we had no way of returning the gesture. That's not to say you shouldn't have got her...

Welcome! I'm Rhiannon. :)

Hi, everybody! I was forced by some circumstances to take a little break off the boards. It was just a couple of weeks, but it has felt like forever! Everything is going smoothly now and I'm back in full force. :D I've missed the forums so much! (Boy, am I addicted :o ).

I completely agree. This child doesn't sound just bratty, she sounds plain disrespectful. And since it's not your child, you must talk to her mother about it. She's the only one who can do something about it, especially since she and you disagree so much on discipline.

Is there any possibility you can talk to her about what bothers her about public restrooms? I don't really have any advice on this, sorry. I hope it's something she grows out of!

There are some very aggressive women out there. Also, this particular woman could have an undiagnosed mental disorder that made her aggressive. I don't find it hard to believe at all. Society in general tends to give women a free pass while men are always being suspected, and I think that's wrong.

I did laugh when Jamie yelled at his toys when he was little. I made sure he couldn't see me, though.

Yes, I think it's ludicrous that the system won't pay attention to a man who is being abused. It can happen. I don't personally know of any cases, but I'm sure they are out there.

Eh, if the police hadn't taken him and he hadn't chosen to move out of town I'd probably still be stuck with him. It's not easy to leave when you've got nowhere to go, nobody who cares and you're afraid he's going to come after you and everything will be even worse. I think it's different when...

That's so adorable!

Fooser, your cat is gorgeous! I'm a closet crazy cat lady. :D I'm trying to convince Matt we NEED a kitty RIGHT NOW. One of my SIL's cats is expecting, and I hope Matt will agree to adopt a kitten once they're born.

During my late teens/early 20s I lived with an abusive boyfriend, M. It was a dark period of my life. My parents didn't care about me, I wasn't talking to my sisters, my brother (the only person in my family I've got a good relationship with) was far away, I had no friends, I felt worthless...

He's a beautiful kitty.
