My husband won’t leave our 1 ½ year daughter so we can go away, even if my mom babysits. I say we need our time together, but he says she’s more important. I adore our daughter, her needs are priority, but this is extreme. My husband’s mother repeatedly told him to hide his finances when […]
Last weekend a family came over for dinner. They brought their kid to play with our son. We had dinner and socialized while the boys entertained themselves. After they left, my son realized that the boy had stolen his birthday money. My son is certain that the money was there because he counted it just […]
After my ex and I separated, he was inconsistent in our 3 y/o daughter’s life. He was severely depressed and unstable—not the person I married. To my horror, last month he committed suicide. I feel lost, in disbelief, and grief stricken. More importantly, I am heartbroken for our daughter. I’ve basically raised her alone, so […]

My wife and I recently divorced. She’s angry and criticizes me to our kids and anyone that will listen. She won’t speak to me directly, only by messages through the children. When it’s my day to have them, she’s late, makes appointments, or gets the kids to make other plans, and ask me if it’s […]
