Family & Relationships - 18 December 2007

My ex isn't doing too well financially. I on the hand have really done well for the past couple of years. I kind of feel bad for my daughter's younger half brother because each holiday I'd get my child a ton of presents and that poor fella gets nothing. I think if this goes on, their relationship will really be tainted as they grow older. I don't want that.

Naturally I'd give ex money to buy whatever she wants for him but she's kind of stupid with money and has a tendency to blow it off and because of that I'm in the process of trying to change custody status for my child. In the mean while, I also really don't want to get involved in her life in any way other than those matters relating to my daughter. I'm kind of in a dilemma here. I feel really bad for him. He's such an adorable kid and my daughter loves him, so naturally I have a soft spot for him. What do you suggest I do?

My daughter is 15 and has to spend a few days over the Christmas at my parent's house. She is not looking forward to it. My parents make funny comments and try to drag her into doing things that she does not like.

They are very excited because its the first Christmas in a long time that she is spending with them. She lived with her Dad in another state and he never sent for Christmas.

She is not at all excited and does not like my mother's rude, weird comments or the way my Dad keeps trying to give her advice regarding making friends, etc.

I am taking a few days off over the holiday, but have to work for a few days also.

I don't know if I should try and pacify her or just let it be. She has to learn to tolerate situations that are not to her liking. But, I had seeing the long face when I pick her up.

She is not able to get her homework done there in the evenings because my mother talks to her, etc... and then she gets upset because her time got wasted.

When I got married a few years ago, it was an at-home wedding.

It was in my aunt's house and at Christmas time. I have always admired how she decorated her home.

After the wedding, there were several comments made about how much my wedding cost her and my other aunt.

My husband and I paid for the cake, flowers and rings. The only clothing purchased was my outfit ($35) and my MOH ($50). She choose to purchase an outfit for her daughter to be a bride's maid (without my consent because the 6 year old was jealous).

The second aunt paid for the food. I went shopping with her and kept the cost down ($80).

All the other things (painting her kitchen, wallpaper, stenciling the walls, wall sconces and candles and more floral decorations) was their ideas and she, of course, kept them. There was also more decorations bought for her new 12 ft. Christmas tree.

The total comes to over $1,000. They say that was the cost of my wedding. I say that was the cost of her re-decorating

My husband's chief complaint about me is that no matter what he does it isn't good enough, and that I don't appreciate the things he does...I only notice the things he doesn't do.

Example: I got home after being gone for three days on a business trip. There were dishes in the sink from dinner the night before, every outfit our younger two children wore to school each day were on the bathroom floor, no laundry was done, and the cat box hadn't been cleaned for three days!!! GROSS!!! I didn't say anything about it when I first got home other than telling our oldest daughter to clean the litter box, as it is her chore. Later that night, my husband could tell I was irritated and asked what was wrong. I told him that it is hard to feel appreciated or look forward to coming home when this is what I have to look forward too. He said...just like always! You didn't notice or appreciate what I did while you were gone...you only noticed what wasn't done!
Seriously? Was I in the wrong??

He put $300.00 on one, which was the credit limit, and he opened another one without my knowledge although he has not used it. He maxed out one of my other credit cards that I already had. I was very mad about this and he even tried to turn the tables saying that it's my fault, because I am such a big spender, where I never buy myself anything. He even brought up that in three days I spent $100, which I spent at the Supermarket! Isn't this outrageous?

i block her number so i won't get any phine calls from her. i text her to tell her why i was upset. she text me back to tell me that ppl were not supposed to know what she was talking about unless i explained things to them. she thought it was funny to act that way. i was hoping for appology but nothing. she tried to blame me for something i did not do. i did not even know why she would do something like that. the funny things are i know stuff about her that are outrageous... do i do the same thing she did? she is not a little angel you know?

I already have a larger bridal party than I want, but I want to associate my youngest sister in there some how. She'll be 11 when the event happens. I was thinking maybe a junior bridesmaid, but I have 4 already.

Is there any other responsibility I can give her?

It bothers me. She's still not FAT, but she sure isn't what she used to look like, and that was only 3 years ago.

Why do women always say they wont do that when they're married...as if it degrading or something? What is so wrong or bad about it unless they are into other chicks, then I can understand. But other than that, I just don't get it.
