who don't help with the childcare issues, don't do housework etc... where you make ALL of the decisions, etc BUT if the kids (ages 5 & 6) start to squabble over something silly like a toy or book, he will all of a sudden start acting like a parent. I don't always butt into the kids' fights as long as they aren't physically getting into it because they need to learn how to talk things out because I am not always going to be around to break up any disagreement for them when they are on their own .... ANYWAY, my husband basically doesn't say anything to the kids but he will try to make his presence known when it's time to discipline; even if I have the situation taken care of, he tries to stand tall and 'take over'... I'm thinking to myself "who do you think YOU are....?" It drives me crazy. I want to tell him to be a real dad, take responsibility, and interact with the kids and not act like 'mr macho man' like that.

My Grandma asked me this question here while back. If my wife and mom was drowning, who to save first. Grandma said to save mom first. She said "You could always get another wife you only get one mom."

So we were born and raised w/ the same religion. I was raised in a secular environment and he in a practicing slightly strict environment. We do plan on having children in the future but i worry because the older i get the less religious i've become...the older he gets the more religious he has become. I'm afraid of what may happen in the future...although everything is great in all other aspects of the relationship. Because i've grown distant from my religion and all organized religions for that matter...is it logical to allow him raise his child w/ his beliefs?

Arn't they people? Just because they're different, doesn't mean you can just presicute them and call them evil. And besides, government shouldn't be albe to pass laws about it, because in the Constitution it states that there can be no law that interferes with the life of the people. But I want to know what other people think on this issue, so let me know what you think.

its been since June that she hasn't seen her dad, he doesn't call her, doesn't send her anything nor pays child-support, he called her on her cell phone to wish her a happy thanksgiving but she had the phone off so she didn't get the message, he never calls our daughter and he feels its ok to call her on a hoilday but the next phone call won't be till xmas day...what do I do people???
Should I change my daugter's number? she's 8...he should be calling her 3 or 4 times a week not only on hoildays...and I don't want to to feel he can get away with it!
As if say..(look I don't pay child-support I don't do anything for her and I still get to speak to her on the hoildays..He does nothing for her..I mean nothing! But if my daugter tells me that she's calling her dad I say sure NP cause in that part I don't want her to feel I want her away from her dad..But I want him to be a better dad everyday not on hoildays our daughter wasn't born on a hoilday.
When I ask where's the child-support? his response id FU put the baby..and I hang up!
why should it be her job to call him he's the parent he's suppose to show her not her show him!
She has a phone cause he claimed the reason he doesn't call her at home is cause of me so I solved the problem and got her a phone and he doesn't call her at all! He help me make her but since I found out I was pregnant he's done nothing for her, never even bought her diapers or clothes just grief that's all he's given all three of his kids! and is oldest is 13
To me that is abuse always leaving her, he's left her 7 times and doesn't even explain he just takes off and when he comes back he acts like nothing and thinks she's this little girl when she's hurt cause she cries to me and he even heard her cry and he ignores her.

and i'm not saying she's cheating - a date which i set up for her to go on.

crazy?. the idea actaully orriginated by her. we went out for a year, broke up for a year, and got back. while mending we were very open about all of these wild fantasies we had. one of hers was that she's go out and explore her sexuality with somebody with alot of experience and then blow me away (to this day, i have a signifigant edge over her in the belt notch department).

once we stablized we stopped talking about most of it, and pretend like we never told each other. but we've often talked about this one, and it drives us both wild.

so a freind of mine from college is going to be in town until sunday, and it seems perfect. he's 'cute' and a ladies man. he won't be in town for long and live far enough away not to be a long term threat. and he's agreed to my conditions (protection and no rough housing)

tonight the big night, and i have no plans. sitting at home will drive me crazy. any ideas?

I have been separated from my ex for almost 4 years due to abuse. our first year together we went and filed taxes and he filed them as married. I don't know what i was thinking but i didn't pay attention and just signed it so we could get it done ( i hate taxes) and now we are considered married in the state of tx. unfortunately i did it again the next tax year and did not find out that we were married until i had to file financial aid for school. when we were together he said once he married me he would never let me get divorced from him and then the abuse started. i finally managed to get me and my daughter away from him and have waitied this long to find out because i was scared of what he might do even though i have moved to another state. but i want to be rid of him once and for all!!!! and now i am ready and have enough guts and self esteem to go for it. oh yeah, there is only one police report on him of abuse.

a married man to look at pornography? Is it OK if his wife is not satisfying him at home? Is it OK if he's into a fantasy that his wife doesn't like, so he looks at porn rather than make her do something she doesn't like? Or should a married man NEVER look at porno, ever?

He said she was not meeting his needs (mostly sexual) and that is why he had an affair. When she found out she threw him out and divorced him. He is moving in with the other woman. This all happened so fast (six months) and I believe he has not dealt with his failed relationship. He has gone from one relationship into another. They have a child together but he still calls her for reasons other than their son. He seems to still want to stay in contact with his ex even though she has told him that she only wants to deal with and talk to him about issues with their son. Could he be missing her? He has said she was his best friend. If a man is getting his sexual needs met with this other woman and tells people he is "head over hills in love" with her - why does he insist on staying in contact with his ex?

Specifcally my daughter needs special attention in regards to excercise and diet.
My daughter told the specialist that I am the only parent that takes her to excercise and feed her the right foods.She wakes up before her mom for school and cooks the wrong food for breakfast. The doctor's office is willing to write a letter on my behalf. The court appointed psychologist is willing to do so as well. My attorney called and said this is a big step towards full custody. I know the kids need both parents and I have tried to tell her nicely to follow the doctor's orders(she is a nurse).I got divorced because she became a different person much different than whom I married. But their health is of the utmost importance and if she continues like this what choice do I have?

I got married about 9 months ago and today is my b-day and my husband had to work wich I understand, but he didn't even give me a card or anything,he only said happy b-day this morning. so I started feeling very sad and I was crying, he said Oh I didnt have time this week to buy you anything so I thought that we could both go out tomorrow and you can pick out your present. But doesnt he understand that it's not the present but the thought! I mean even a card and flowers would have been the best gift ever for me. Now since he saw that Im sad he wants us to go tomorrow for me to pick something out. but I honestly dont want anything anymore Its very stupid to get something you picked out yourself, to me it makes no sense! Im just here crying by myself since he left to work. I been working so much overtime this week and today was finaly my day off all for nothing.

This is a follow on to my previous question - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AnXbBYLPvVeE1QQzNlzt6q3zy6IX?qid=20061124134404AAtRhQQ

Understanding that you both deserve satisfaction and that if one person isn't satisfied it might (or might not) be their problem. Still, if you spouse isn't sexually satisfied then it seems to me that you might have a marital problem on your hands.

So on a scale of 1-10 how important is this to you and why?
