Thats crazy, I had a friend basically say the same thing. Except she prefaced it with: "I know its just a clump of cells at this point..." she was miscarrying at 10 weeks. It made me sad that she felt she needed to apologize for having sadness over miscarrying what, by societies standards...

If this child is THIS abusive, I cannot imagine that this is just a 'lack of discipline' issue. He needs to be assessed by a doctor and therapist immediately. This is not normal - even the most spoiled, undisciplined child wouldn't find pleasure in physically assulting their own mother. This...

It's not going to work. No matter what advice, help, suggestions, conviction or confession you go to - nothing will stop what you've started. Why? Because of your own admission, time and time again that you are "weak" - yes, you're obviously weak or you would not have cheated in the first...

I think I'm not nearly as patient as many of you. When we were trying, it took a while...I just didn't tell anyone. I think just my one sister - not even my mother knew we were trying and when she'd all out ask, I'd straight up lie and say "no". I didn't want people asking, or nosing or...

That being said, do I avoid interests or activities that are more "male" oriented? My interests are what they are - I can equally love baking, and giant monster movies, needlepoint and auto-body painting and detailing. If my own interests are so varied, how could I oppose my child feeling the same?

Good! Just about to have our second little munchkin (due Oct 11). Remi is working IT for governmental, I'm still at home and just started our first homeschool year with Ella who just turned 4. :) How have you been?

IJWTS - hey ya'll. It's been awhile. CF sure looks different.. o.O

6-7, I wouldn't be too worried. If he wanted to dance, I'd put him in tap (Fred Astaire, anyone?) what other "female activities" are there? Playing dress up? Cooking/Baking? The only slightly more effeminate "activity" a child at that age could do is ballet. That's literally the only...

As have I. :)

The only thing I find that I struggle with is having the one car. We live in a bit of a suburb and getting out during the day can be difficult. I can find I get cabin-fevery, but a 2nd car just is not in the cards right now.. :( Ah well!

I'm also a SAHM and a homeschooling mum. :) We also live on a small one-income, but our idea was always: "I'll SAHM as long as it's financially possible." I mean, we have one car, old technology, after almost 7 years of marriage, JUST bought our first home, it IS a sacrifice. But I LOVE it...

IJWTS, hello again everyone! I hope you all are having a good Christmas season so far. My little one is sick, so I'm dealing with a runny nosed, coughing little misery, but on the plus side, I get lots of cuddles. Which means I should start to feel sick RIGHT in time for Christmas. ;) Lol

I'm going to raise my daughter the best way my husband and I can. She's also 3. :) She's going to be her own person. And seeing how her personality is almost exactly like mine, she's not going to have ANY issues speaking her mind or standing up for herself. Because she's going to be raised...

I like Beth Moore. Lol, plus her early Bible Studies, when she had the huge bouffant hair, the big 80s jewelry and the crazy southern accent is HILarious! But I find her studies biblically sound and have always been blessed from them. :)

Wow, just finished scanning through this... I remember when Dobie came in all excited, and if I recall correctly I remember when his wife had her first miscarriage too. I don't know if all the other username/groups thing is true, but even the fact that an emotional affair has split up his...

She was probably waiting for the: "WHAAAA??? How is that POSSIBLE? You're so gorgeous..I wish you were MY wife.." comments. ;) If you were a chick and she was telling you this, I'd be more inclined to think that maybe she is legitimately reaching out, and possibly needed help or support. (or a...

Ha! So basically you just shut it down. ;) I think thats for the best!

I've had that happen a few times, sometimes it can be an drama-seeking person, but when its a member of the opposite sex, red flags go WAY up! Have you even responded to that message? Or are you just going to ignore it?

Lol! Plastic ornaments ONLY! No tinsel. Minimal lighting. And lots of "Touche PAS!" ;) :D It worked out pretty well...though she'll be three this Christmas so we're still in that boat..

I don't have any real advice that wasn't already said, but I am praying for you, and really hoping that you can get through this together, and be stronger for it. Peace, ~ Niffer
