I grew up as the golden child of seven children, the favorite among all. My parents were dealing with an alcoholic adult son and a diliquent teenage son. Then, the alcoholic son got a girl pregnant and the other son had to be bailed out of jail. And guess what I did to twist the knife on my parents’ wounds? I accidentally got pregnant and didn’t marry. My father got cancer a few months later and then he died. Till this day, I feel like I had a lot to do with his death. I know I didn’t cause the cancer, but maybe he was so torn, disappointed, and worried about me and all of the other events that the whole thing blew up in his face. He was and still is one of my best friends, and I fear that I will be forever haunted that I broke his heart.
I am still with the father of the child (we went on to have another). It’s been almost six years and I’ve realized why my father was worried: the father of my children is not the one for me. Nobody in my huge family likes him and/or thinks he’s okay, but not the one for me. I really care about him, but he is very high strung and has emotional outbursts (he yells about things like temporarily using the dining table as a sewing table). I am on the verge of leaving, but I don’t have a job to support myself. I’ve applied to several jobs, but no luck so far. Any advice?

I just wondered because I just asked if Americans approved of foreigners taking drugs in the US and I got “oh yes that’s fine” answers

Okay so they are separated, they have been since Oct. 2007, so like 1 1/2 yrs…my dad was always a jerk to begin with,I think he is Narcissistic(sp?) like he always makes fun of me & my lil sis, like calling us stupid, dumb retarded….he is so juvenile too, like he has the mentality of a teenager really. He has no “normal” friends, unless you consider an alcoholic who drives drunk w/his son in the car & an oxy cotton/cocaine addict “normal”. He hates women, I think cuz he says,”all women are crazy.” And I’m a GIRL!!! He isn’t supportive either. But we dealt w/him in family therapy….it’s a lil better….

My mom- she can be ok at times but she is kinda crazy too. Her mental friends call at all hours….she loves to bash my dad but I don’t feel comfortable doing that w/her….if I’m talking to her while shes on the computer about idk school she won’t listen but if its about my dad, oh boy she’ll stop w/e she’s doing and listen and bash him. She’s one to pull guilt trips too, making me feel guilty about stuff. I HATE that…she never wants to hear anything she doesn’t want to hear. Even if I’m tactful, she’ll get mad & freak out. We were friends with this crazy family who I came to like & come close with the lady & the lady suddenly ditched us(she’s like bipolar & an alcoholic, except she won’t admit it) & now all of a sudden my mm is like talking to this lady’s husband like they’re old friends again when we haven’t been friends for a year! I told her about it nicely & she freaked out, saying it’s none of my business, blah blah blah….

My point is w/my mom we can’t calmly discuss anything. If I tell her nicely not to do something, she’ll do it anyway. She thinks she’s normal & everyone else has to change. She never apologizes, I always end up apologizing just so she’ll give me back stuff even though I didn’t do anything. I’m so sick of it, I have to hold all my feelings inside or else she’ll throw me out of the house(she does it all the time) I don’t think we have a normal relationship…HELP!?

BTW, I’m 14.

I spent two weeks with my son earlier this Summer. Of course, I pay my child support each month and all that stuff. Still, I live about five hours North of him, and I don’t see him every day or even every week. I was homeless for four years, and now I’m not homeless any longer. I can’t seem to get my driver’s license, because I don’t have the money to pay the $800 fine. I’m sort of in a tight right now, and I don’t know what to do. My son is ten years old, and I’m afraid we’ll end up copying what happened between my Dad and I. I never spent a lot of time with my Dad either. I love him and all, but he’s past 70 now, and I feel we lost a lot of time. I know it wasn’t my fault, but I’m afraid I’ve become my Dad. My son lives with his mother, and I don’t have the financial means to move back down south of the State. I just don’t want him to think I don’t love him. I mean, I feel like we don’t even know each other much. I bought him a big computer for his birthday in June, but I know money doesn’t buy love. I use to be an alcoholic and drug addict. Then I got saved–Born Again–and I never drank again or did drugs. I just feel like I’ve lost a lot of time. What should I do? It doesn’t seem like I can be the Dad I want to be. It’s like we have separate lives. I just feel like I’ve failed with my son. I just hope he knows I love him. I hugged him when he was here, and he hugged me back. His Mom is a Liberal, and she runs an entirely different type of household. She’s a California girl, and I was a Georgia boy. I just hope things work out where maybe my son and I can one day have some sort of constant communication. Life is tough, you know? Right now, I’m just trying to get situated financially, you know? Maybe get a real life–right? Just wondering if anyone is going through the same thing, and how they cope with being so far away from their child. Makes you feel guilty, ya know?

My 2 year old son’s dad and I have never have been married. We’ve lived together for 4 years, even after breaking up, thinking that parenting & money would be easier living together. As of this past weekend, I made a decision to move out in September. This is something dad agrees with, & supports. We both know the fighting has gone on too long.The problem is that dad is a drunk. He lives for alcohol & doesn’t care who his lifestyle affects. He comes home drunk from work (or anywhere, really) on a regular basis, even when he promises each night not to. He can get physical & violent (not in front of our son, this always happens after midnight, so he’s in bed). I want out of this sooner, but I can’t move before my new roommate is free of her lease in Sept. Is there something I can do legally? I’m tired of his alcoholic lifestyle & he doesn’t recognize his problem. And I know he’ll lie if accused of anything. He’s even threatened to lie if in court. I need help. I need to protect my son
We have no shared bank accounts, and I have a house full of my belongings and a situation that doesn’t allow for a “transition home” or anything like that. I have parents that will help, if needed. But I have to maintain my life while making this change. I have an awesome job and I can’t neglect that either.
I can’t just “leave”. Til September, I have nowhere to go, and a “shelter” won’t be happening. His mother is visiting this weekend and I don’t think she has a clue that his drinking is this out of hand, but I’m sure as heck going to tell her.
I appreciate all the advice so far, but I can’t see anything that would work yet. Isn’t there sometime I can do to force HIM out? If I leave, I’m leaving him with all my stuff and I can’t do that. My family is in another state, so this could get complicated, I don’t have local family to help me out. I just thought maybe I could get some sort of order for him to move out or something, and then I could maybe get some assistance to help pay the $900 rent for the next 2 months, or ask my parents.
The lease is in both nof our names. And as of June 1, we’re not on a lease, come to think of it. So I’m not sure what that means.

I’m not “tattling” to his mom, I just need for her to stop seeing me as the whiney, annoying party and him as a drunk. He never does it in front of her, she lives 400 miles away, we barely ever see her.

And I can’t just move. I know it’s hard to understand, it’s even harder to explain. But this is 2 levels of a home ful of my stuff, and everything is unorganized. All my picture proof of anything is on a broken laptop, etc etc. It’s a sticky situation.

My ex just came back into the picture after being gone for 6 months. Now he wants to see our son regularly again. He agreed to an hour long visit in a park today with me present. I just stayed in the car and read while he and my 4 year old son played. He admitted to me that he got mixed up with some really bad people and it involved drugs and he feared for his life because things went bad with them and that he was doing meth. He said that he stopped doing it about a week ago and that it’s not something he was addicted to just something he did to not feel depressed.

He hasn’t given me much hassle, any hassle at all, actually about seeing our son with me around. We do not have custody or visitation set up through the courts. Before this we dealt with one another to.

I felt very bad for him today. He seems to be in a very bad place. But he was very happy to see our son and my son was happy to see him. But I do worry about my son’s safety… so I’m thinking if he does want to start seeing him more or without me around that we might have to go through the courts.

What I’m wondering is… Is it believable that someone could be doing meth fairly consistently probably for the past 6 months or longer and then suddenly quit on his own a week ago and stay clean? Or is he probably still using? I hear it’s VERY addictive and hard to kick.

We have no shared bank accounts, and I have a house full of my belongings and a situation that doesn’t allow for a “transition home” or anything like that. I have parents that will help, if needed. But I have to maintain my life while making this change. I have an awesome job and I can’t neglect that either.
I can’t just “leave”. Til September, I have nowhere to go, and a “shelter” won’t be happening. His mother is visiting this weekend and I don’t think she has a clue that his drinking is this out of hand, but I’m sure as heck going to tell her.
I appreciate all the advice so far, but I can’t see anything that would work yet. Isn’t there sometime I can do to force HIM out? If I leave, I’m leaving him with all my stuff and I can’t do that. My family is in another state, so this could get complicated, I don’t have local family to help me out. I just thought maybe I could get some sort of order for him to move out or something, and then I could maybe get some assistance to help pay the $900 rent for the next 2 months, or ask my parents.
The lease is in both nof our names. And as of June 1, we’re not on a lease, come to think of it. So I’m not sure what that means.

I’m not “tattling” to his mom, I just need for her to stop seeing me as the whiney, annoying party and him as a drunk. He never does it in front of her, she lives 400 miles away, we barely ever see her.

And I can’t just move. I know it’s hard to understand, it’s even harder to explain. But this is 2 levels of a home ful of my stuff, and everything is unorganized. All my picture proof of anything is on a broken laptop, etc etc. It’s a sticky situation.

My 2 year old son’s dad and I have never have been married. We’ve lived together for 4 years, even after breaking up, thinking that parenting & money would be easier living together. As of this past weekend, I made a decision to move out in September. This is something dad agrees with, & supports. We both know the fighting has gone on too long.The problem is that dad is a drunk. He lives for alcohol & doesn’t care who his lifestyle affects. He comes home drunk from work (or anywhere, really) on a regular basis, even when he promises each night not to. He can get physical & violent (not in front of our son, this always happens after midnight, so he’s in bed). I want out of this sooner, but I can’t move before my new roommate is free of her lease in Sept. Is there something I can do legally?

Have you used Paxil? Has it helped you? Has it harmed you or someone you know? Is there a general consensus on the benefits/risks of this drug?

Would you allow your son to ‘have a drink’ now and then? I don’t see it as a big deal- considering you have told them the effects and drink responsibly. What do you think?
