I am a mom of two boys ages 15 & 20. My 20 year old moved out last year and is on his own. I am also stepmom to my hubbys 2 boys ages 9 & 10.

Anyway, my 15 year old has come to the age/stage in his life that he wants to live with his dad. His dad has been paying me child support off and on -still owes $10,000. (Anyway, I was not going to argue over the fact that he wants to live there and making necessary changes. ) I know kids must make their own decision and learn on their own.

Anyway, his dad is worried about getting child support. He called today stating he talked to (child support agency) and is requesting a copy of a letterfrom me stating I am closing the case. I told him I am not closing the case - IS HE NUTS? I replied "that I went many months without myself.

First of all, I have had him here for past 9 years myself since divorce - since this is new thing - I consider this a temporary arrangement for the school year to assure this is indeed what he wants.

My beautiful 24 year-old daughter had an emotional break-up with her boyfriend of 3 years in July. Since that time she has spent most nights with friends hanging out at bars. She is losing her job in two weeks when the business closes and has no other job lined up. She will not be able to pay her rent and other bills, but she seems to be almost frantic about going out every night to drink and party with these friends. I am worried about how she will get by. Can anyone help me understand what I need to do or say to get her to accept some responsibility for her choice of activities? By the age of 24 she should have grown out of the bar and party scene. She has no plans or goals for the future. She dropped out of college so she has no higher education. Please help me understand what to do.

i never had a dad who taught me stuff like change the oil or how to fix a clogged toilet etc.

i wish i had one, and also so he could shoot me a couple of bucks now and then while i'm in school.

shlt, some kids have it so easy but i always had it hard.

i'm not whining about it, but hell, this does cross my mind.

Okay Ill start with the basics...and try to follow cause it could be confusing... My babies dad doesnt see my daughter he hasnt seen her since a year and 4 months ago..he pays childsupport because they court ordered him too...and he has two other baby mommas'(Mine was the first...) He's only 20 years old..My husband wants to adopt my daughter. My daughter loves my husband to death...and im not saying that if he did adopt her i wouldnt tell her about her real dad one day...i just think it's good for her to have that father figure there for her whenever she does need it...I've seen my babies dad proably 3 times since the last time hes seen my daughter he's never once ...not even once asked about my daughter...hes asked tohang out with me and everything else but never asked about her...My question is should i call and ask him if hell sign the papers to let him adopt her or just send the papers??? thanks for the answers im really stumped on this one!!!

Please I don't want negative replies. I need startegies that other parents have used to help with a oppositional defiant child. She is 10 and is on Zoloft and Focalin and you can tell a difference when she doesn't take her meds.

case scenario: one of your daughters is Gay and you happen to have a controlling personality. As a political head honcho, you make sure she doesn't join any Gay organizations or clubs or is seen in public at any Gay establishments. You do your best to make sure she doesn't have any Gay friends and associates. What kind of effect would this have on her?

What kind of effect would this have on her mirror twin who is not Gay but supports Gay rights issues?

Any mom would get offended over this, even if it came from a complete stanger.

"As i can see from your childs photo u ar not very attractive and more on the larger side. Stop living your life through your child! your only going to set her up for a big fat fall when she goes to school and the other kids laugh at her for not being true pagent material and never really winning. Yes its the taking part what matters, but not when she's the only on her size and then she eats more to make herself feel better. i know you were never a real beauty and want to be one of us but nor is your kid so dont put her through it, keep her with the other mouses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

Maybe it is cause I am thin skinned, but I can't help being very upset that someone would be this mean.
My screen name doesn't mean that I am a fat person, it comes from the fact that I raise Siberian Huskys. And as far as my child being unattractive like me, she doesnt even know what I look like!

The other day, my son told me that he had "googled" himself.... Needless to say, I was quite bothered, so I told him what my father told me: it gives you hairy palms and makes your skin turn black from the AIDs. Am I a bad illegitimate father?

He says mom like a million times a day, and when it ask what?, he has to come up with something to say, usually he asks for something, I know he is just doing this for my attention. When I don't give him my attention he starts acting up and getting into stuff. I am a stay at home mom and always home with him because I rarely get to go and do anything without my kids, I have to take them with me. So I don't know what to do to get the point across that even though I am around him all the time, that it doesn't mean that I am at his beckon call. Any suggestions other than I have to get away from them more, because that just isn't possible right now.

I was denyed the bathroom as a child at school several times. I also knew a girl who's mom never let her or her brother use the bathroom in public, forcing then to hold it sometimes for hours on end. She told me they were made to hold it after getting home if they complaned about needing to go or misbehaved.

I have also seen parent do this to their children in public. I was wondering if anyone as seen this before and in what setting?

My best friend in the world (I love her dearly) has a 15 month old and a 3 month old. I know for a fact that she is busy considering I have three kids myself- however I don't believe she is treating her 15 month old properly. Supper will consist of hot dogs (most often this is the case) or an egg or a griled cheese or just mac and cheese. This is not nutritious and I understand she is busy but her daughter is going to pay for this in the long run- the poor kid goes weeks without pooping. The house is disgusting with bugs and flies and dirty dishes smelling and the dog drags the trash around. There are close to 10 loads of laundry on the laundry room floor spiling into the dining room. They have an old cat who can't control his bladder so he pees on everything and there's cat puke on the dining table. I really want to call child protective services but I thought I should talk to my friend first and tell her how unacceptable this is. How would you tell her/would you tell her at all?

Our subdivision is full of stay-at-home moms and many are friends with me, but I find it so crazy that they don't take the time to shower before we all take our kids to the bus stop (our kids go to a Charter school outside of our distict and the bus is required to pick them up..were not just being lazy) They catch the bus a 8:40...I have enought time to get my two kids dressed and fed and help my husband get out the door and shower myself (and I'm 6 months prego!) I'm not trying to say I'm so fresh and so clean but is that how other stay at home moms are? Why is that?
