    Okay, let the judgment begin...

    Well, I've been married before, and I'm married now. First marriage was a trainwreck, to put it in nice terms. We'll call the ex, "James". Second marriage was...lacking. We'll call the ex "Benjamin." Onto the third! Third time is a charm right? :thumbsup: This is my husband, who we can...

    Divorce, Drama and pain.

    My husband, Mark, and myself are in the middle of a bitter divorce. He's spreading lies about me and drudging up past relationships in hope of getting custody (which I have) of our son.

    Overwhelming me.

    My aunt, who I was so incredibly close to, died 10 years ago on the 16th. It's a day I will never forget, and one that never forgets to torture me. She was my world away, everything, and on this anniversary I find myself longing for just one more time with her. I promised her I'd finish...

    Husband's back

    My husband has a really bad back. He's only 22, but his back is chronically hurting. The doctors just told him to get physical therapy which isn't covered by our insurance and we cannot afford (even $100 would make all the difference) but we just cannot find the money for it. They think he has a...

    Taking in my brothers, now having a bio son.

    So last year my husband and I took in my two half-brothers, aged 13 and 15. My brothers, especially the 15 year old, have been so stunted by the way they have grown up with their mom and my father that they seemed as though they were 8 at times. Well, they were with us for a few months and we...

    My son is barely 6 1/2 months and yesterday when I was changing his diaper he started pulling...until he cried. Is it normal for him to do this at this time?:confused: Now every time his diaper is off, he starts going down for a yank and usually makes himself whimper if not cry when he realizes...
