Family - July 2007

I dont understand why men get jealous if the girlfriend make more money than them or if the girlfriend has a beter job or at better financial position? Why cant they be just happy if their partner is happy rather than feeling insecure.

I agree I did some wrong stuff, broke some rules, was a bit disrespectful. Lasr week mom got a bit mad at me and decided to punish. I apologized sincerely. This was good, she accepted, was even nice but said I had to learn to follow rules. So for 2 weeks I spend the day doing some chores and learning things I don't enjoy, like cooking, embroidering and sewing. My grandma comes everyday to teach me to cook and one of her friend comes to teach me embroidering. Mom got me some cute frilly aprons and I gotta wear them all day long, a kind of uniform. I hate this, but mom said this will teach me to follow rules. A t night I spend quality time w/ mim, we talk a lot. She's been nice, we sit on the couch she hugs me sometimes even coddles me, but said she'll keep my punishment to the end. Saturday and Monday afternoon I can go out and have fun. These days have been kinda boring, but at least our relationship wasn't damaged and mom said she's kinda happy abut how I'm taking my punishment.

keeping this out of court is not an option, unfortunately. My 18-yr old daughter hasn't seen her younger half-brothers and sister in a year and wants to keep in touch, but her father and stepmother will not cooperate. Does she have a legal, arguable case to establish visitation rights?

My life is so boring and my husband is about to go back to Iraq and I want to do some things as a family that dont cost alot that we can get into before he leaves. We both go to the lake alot but I cant fish because I am mommy and I have to take care of the baby. I try to suggest things for us to do and he shoots me down on all of them saying it costs too much or something. We have been married 2 years and we are super in love but we are boring as can be! Please give me some suggestions. I only have a limited amount of time before he is gone for 15 months and I want to make this time memorable!!

I started wondering this when a fellow co-worker of mine bought a house 2 years ago because EVERYONE around her was buying houses. She bought knowing she couldn't afford ownership on her salary but she didn't want to be left out(oh brother,what a lemming!) and now she is in pre-foreclosure.

Could alot of the debt in this country be linked to the need to "fit-in"?

My brother-in-law is engaged to a girl that I just can't stand. She is 25 but acts like she is 16. Very immature, and thinks she knows everything. Always has to butt into any conversation like she knows what she is talking about. I'm pretty close to my brother-in-law and he knows I don't like her. But he is marrying her to just settle. Nobody in the family likes her and if I mention anything to my husband he defends her. She almost broke up my wedding by saying stuff. I don't know whether to just accept her and move on or what to do. I really!!!! don't want them to get married. She can't keep a job, has had 7 in 3 years and one was her own business. She has never had to struggle for anything and takes for granted what she does have. She would be the type that after they are married that won't want to work. I think if the marriage doesn't last she will take him for everything. I've tried telling him all this but doesn't get me anywhere. Please help!

Should I tell my ex to come and get my son on Sunday instead of tomorrow because of the severe weather warnings? I live near North Yorkshire and it's gonna be bad tomorrow!

My ex isn't the kind of person to take kindly to this, but I don't want to put my son at risk!

When I was 15, I made mistakes. Bad crowds, once I drank and was disrespectful. They were harsh, even cruel. Every teen makes mistakes and I was really sorry. They said they didn't trust me. Of course this cruelty broke my spirit. I got into a deep depression, but they were cruel. I found people who trusted and helped me, like some teachers, so I got over. I made my parents proud, but could never see them as loving parents again. I became espectful but distant, like a stranger, never forgot that day. Today I'm 23, graduated, have a good job, and nothing changed, that day is still a painful memory. I moved out and for 3 years have hardly talked with them. they've been trying to restablish our relationship, but I avoid them, can't forget. A relationship would be hurtful, all thos sad and hurtful memories would come back. I agreed to talk with them this night, but I'll say I don't want them in my life. They didn't love and trust me when I needed them most. Now it's too late.

Well , u know , she left . I thought it's because i didn't trust her enough and hurt her . But i was thinking and it became clear that . she was chosing her family over me . She has done this before . But this time it was more unconcious and didn't even let me see it even for a bit . She has told me from the beginning that she will chose what her parents say , and if they say "No " she will go with them . I begged for 2 weeks when i first saw her and make her decision after that . She stayed with me for a year . and last week she said " Never call me " , "I hate your voice". and i could't say anything because it seems like she has been planning all the little fights and everything , for this . ( So i wouldn't get hurt in the future when she knows her parents will say "NO ") .
On top of that eventhough this is the real reason why we were fighting , it was Coated with " Trust issue" problems , because after a year , talking about "is there love" is pretty hurting to both.what to do ?:

I met this guy 5 yrs ago, we dated but I was working toward graduating college, taking care of a 4 year old and working. I felt that it was better that we didn't date seriously because I couldn't fully give him my attention. We were friends instead, still spending time together. He eventually found a girlfriend, I had no problem with this. We remained friends. Fast foward 3 yrs and he broke up with the girl and we began seeing each other. I had a surgery last August the Dr. said that I should have a baby if I had planned on having any kids. I talked it over with him and he readily agreed. I am now pregnant. He moved out of his house and into his supposed ex-girlfriends house leaving me pregnant and alone. The baby is due next week his girlfriend states that he won't be allowed to have anything to do with the baby. The girlfriend has called 2 harass me several times. I don't want drama, a child's birth should be peaceful. Should he be allowed in the delivery room?

I was adopted at birth and recently obtained my adoption records. So I have the maiden name of my birth mother and her last name when she was married but I know she got divorced. I'm not sure if she's gotten married again in the last 25 years, so I'm not sure how to even start looking for her. I'm pretty sure that she still lives here in Alberta Canada, but I'm trying to do free internet seaches and don't know where to even start. Does anyone have any ideas??

He's found me thru Friendster and emailed - asking for forgiveness and a second chance. All these years he's managed to stay away, and my son and I have moved on perfectly well without him. I'm now in a relationship and my bf and I love each other and are happy together. My son has a good friendly relationship with my bf. First off, I thought, why now? what for? Honestly, I don't know what to make of it. Your inputs would be much appreciated.

That's right. Because, the previous year, when I was on probation, sitting in the back seat of a car as a captive audience, she in the front sniped at me twice, "You are not my brother", and I couldn't get my mother to pull over and just let me out..
And, if I had punched her out for saying that , while on probation, I would have had my passport revoked, she knew that, that's why she was so aggressive about it), so I played it cool, and then the following year just totally gave her wedding a miss.
Now, she has two kids, and I don't even acknowlewdge them, or any other development on her part. I just got completely off the bus, especially for her saying I was "not her brother" while I was in such a vulneranble situation. I'll get back, forever, no joke, especially if she told me she wants it that way, I admit it even here.
I don't even herknow kids, but I will have such a good time one day telling them about this, and that I don't want to know them, either, for it

Here is one for you. My daughter comes to me & wants me to pick up her friend from work & take the two of them back to the friends house so my daughter can spend the night with the friend. We pull into the parking lot & I pull in right up front to pick up the friend from her work. I wait..wait some more...I tell my daughter to get out and go get her friend..my daughter refuses. I give her two chances to get out of the car & go get her friend. I see no reason why I should have to wait. I start to leave, my daughter is shocked that I am actually doing this. I ask her again as I continue to drive home...my daughter says..let me call her..so she gets out her cell phone & calls...her friend doesn't answer. I ask my daughter again..are you going to get out of the car? She says that I have no patience. I told her it was rediculous that she wouldnt get out of the car & get her friend.There is NO reason I should have to wait My daughter has done this many times. I drove home. Your thoughts?
