Family - November 2006

I just went back to work after 15 years. I now have a child (she is 10) and I can no longer do the room mom thing, field trips, bake cookies for class, etc. She misses me but I love my job. I don't need to work for money, but I love my job. Help???

My brothers and I are going to spill my mom's ashes soon (those were her wishes) and we need to do something with the urn once we're done. This is an elaborate marble and brass urn she bought for herself before she died and her ashes have been in it for five years now...

We're spilling her ashes in the Smoky Mountains (again, her wishes) and have no idea what to do with the urn when we're done. I've looked online and found no articles on the topic and am pulling a blank when I try to come up with a solution on my own.

Please help me out if you have any ideas... and please don't be mean or disrespectful to my mom... She was an amazing lady and was nice to just about everyone she met. I'd like to treat her ashes (and urn) with the same level of love that she gave so freely in her life.

Thanks in advance for your ideas and opinions :)

My father died of blood cancer and the pain of losing him just tears me apart inside. I can't find a way to deal with the fact that he is gone...vanished out of my life. He meant everything to me but when I saw him suffering I just couldn't handle it, so I tried not to be home much and now I feel ashamed and guilty for not being there for him more during this hard time.
Have you ever lost someone you loved?
How did you deal with that?
What can I do to overcome this unbearable pain?

Please only serious anwers.

About 2 years ago our daughter, then 16, was messing up. One night she got home drunk, my husband said she'd be grounded for a month, she was disrespetful, he lost his temper and spanked her really bad. Actually he exaggerated. She went to his mother, who loves her and almost reported him. She has $, some power over my hubby and got custody of the girl, who srted hating us, especially my hubby. She's been with mother-in law for almost 2 years and I must admit she is now a very wise and good girl. Since that day, we haven't talked to her, she refuses. Next years she'll be in college. My m- in- law doesn't turn the girl against us but supports her decisions. She'll even buy her an apartment next year. That thing tore our family apart, my heart is broken and my hubby, though he's a tough man, suffers a lot too. We have a great 15 yo boy, and fortunately he gets along w/ my daughter. But though he loves her, he's getting resentful, feeling left out, and my afriad we'll end up losing him

I put him in a nursing home but he still thinks he is living WWII. He uses water balloons a grenades and thinks the staff are Nazi SS soldiers. The other day he rounded up the other guests and locked them in the bathroom as prisoners of war. He insists in sitting in tub like a foxhole.

I rented a military uniform as Patton and told him the war was over and that seemed to stop his delusion. However now the nursing home called me and said he is fighting the Korean war now. He has the nursing home divided in two sections north and south and wont come to the north side to eat in the dining area.

What should I do now?

My son was raised by his father from 14 on.He has been living out of the county with a girlfriend & her parents for the last six months.They have kicked him out.He has stayed with one friend & then another. His father will not let him combe back home(he lives in a camper in his parents driveway, anyway)His grandparents will not let him live with them either.My son has anger issues and does not get along with my boyfriend. I have been with my boyfriend for 5 years and we own our own home together.He says, that he would have married me a long time ago, if he wasn't afraid of what I was going to do with my children. I still have one daughter living with me, she is 18.She is a senior in high school. He doesn't approve that my daughter doesn't have a job yet.My son doesn't have a driver's license, a car, a job or a place to sleep at night. I am torn between my son and my boyfriend.He is upset with me right now, because I have let my son put his clothing in our garage. I am sick over this.

Hey, looking for quick help here. My step-mother's father passed away last night. I live in Texas, they live in Indiana - should I attempt to attend the funeral? Would it be a major faux pas for me not to attend, and simply send a sympathy card?

I just returned to Texas from Indiana after Thanksgiving. I knew her father, but not really well - he's been in a home for years. My kids look at my step-Mom as a Grandma, and her Mother as a Grandmother figure - she loves my kids, and my kids love her.

What should I do? Should I go up there? Or, should I just send sympathy?

Any help is appreciated. I'm torn here!

And not because the father is an abuser or anything, but because they're broken up or the guy cheated or whatever.

Is this not the most entirely selfish thing a woman could do to her child?

Ok well, i live in Indiana. And my good guy friend from highschool is graduating from the marines in san diego next weekend. his girlfriend is my roomate and we both purchased tickets to go for a weekend about 2 months ago, without telling our parents. Well since the day was approaching we decided to tell them...her parents were ok with it, but mine were pissed! They said i cant go even though i already bought my ticket and its non refundable! i dont get it, i'll be staying with my cousin in san diego for free (so money isnt an issue) and i live on my own, an hour away from them in an apartment (but my parents pay my college) and im 18...why can't i go???? how can i convince them???

I have been dating my boyfriend for a little over a year now, and we have discussed marriage numerous times, and I love HIM and have no doubt that I want to spend the rest of my life with him. The problem is that he has a sister that is very attached to him. Eg: If she calls, he drops everything to go to her....he will break plans with me, if she wants to go out, and that is very frustrating. I have attempted to invite her to dinner, and to do things, and she always negates my offers so I hav estopped including her in my life. The worst part about it, is that she influences his parents, and he doesn't make it better by not inviting my to do things with his family. I have discussed these things with him, and explained to him how uncomfortable they make me feel, and it has gotten me no where. I do not want to make him choose between me and his family, but I have no idea what else to do. I have even suggested moving to another state....Please help.

This year I was unable to go to Thanksgiving at my mom's house because I had to work. My mom said we'd have a separate little dinner on saturday when I got there. We all sit down to dinner and my parents, sisters and brothers start talking about this cruise they're planning to take together, that no one has even told me about! I should explain that we're all grown adults but I am the only one that is a single parent, and they know I can't afford a trip like that. But to talk about it during the only Thanksgiving dinner I had? Isn't that a little insensitive? It hurt my feelings and when I told my mother & sister they blew it off and said that there was no reason to be hurt and I just need to get over it. I ended up hanging up on my sister yesterday because she made some very rude and personal comments - with it so close to the holiday I really don't want to speak to any of them. What would you do? Would that situation hurt your feelings?
