Just wondering. You see my boyfriend left me for a chick that seems to keep him under the influence of something… so everytime I try to call him about our son he is just too beligerant to care. So I was wondering if I could pop them and put an end to all that? Maybe he’d have to take drug/alcohol classes?

My ex and I have a child together but have split up. I have been the primary caretaker since our son was born, but now we are going to family court to discuss custody. We have never been married but his name is on the birth certificate.

My ex is an alcoholic but is currently seeking therapy for this. However, he is an emotionally abusive and angry man and I am afraid this will negatively affect our son. But how do I prove this to a judge? Would they even care about this since he is not PHYSICALLY abusive?
job edwards you are very bitter towards women. i’m sorry your ex was like that but there is no need to make such a huge assumption about me.

from looking at your answers to other people i can see that you enjoy being a pill.

I admit I spent more time on the couch drinking than I did playing with my boy whom now is 12. I did still go out and play catch with him lots and watched all his sport games cheering from the sidelines. I went to all his school events, volunteered as a room mom etc.My husband divorced me because of my alcohol abuse. I am in treatment now. I call my son and his step mon says he does not want to talk to me then continues to hurl insults in such a cruel way. She even had my 83 year old dad that I live with because of his alzheimers crying!I have tried to reason with her through my tears that we need to talk and she just yells louder. I pray my boy is not able to hear her. Legally I have my boy on wednesdays plus my share of the holidays.Since to Christmases ago I have not seen my son. People tell me to get a lawyer but I have always been to emotional to stop my crying. I don’t want my son seeing this mess.I write my son every week or so with no response. My x says he does receive them

My mom had me right after she turned 20. My dad turned out to be a deadbeat loser, and she kicked him out when i was two before my little brother was born. He is now living a life without any of his children (he also has another son) as a meth addict. I feel like my mom has always resented me. Like my life ruined her life, because she couldn’t live to be a normal young adult. She use to tell me how I have been nothing bit a burden since the day I was born (I ten weeks premature). I’m 21 now, married and have two beautiful daughters. I had my first daughter right after my 19th birthday and not once have I ever felt like my daughters are a burden. She has never been happy. She has been married three times now, and even in her happiest marriage, she still treats me and even my brother horribly. She isn’t happy that I’m happy and somehow got it in her head that I have a controling husband, which is conpletely outrageous. He is the most wonderful, patient, loving, caring husband and father a woman could ask for. She is literally the only person I know who thinks this way of him, and everybody else has been around him much more than she has. Because of her accusations about my husband she and i haven’t been on good terms in over a year. I haven’t seen or nor have I spoken to her. She texted me over a christmas saying she wanted to take me to lunch and see the girls. She said this as if she hasnt said the horrible things she has said about me or my husband. She never apologizes for anything. The last time I allowed myself to forgive and forget without an appology (over this same situation) she was horrible to hubby and me again in a matter of weeks! That was the final straw, so I told her no she will not be seeing me or my babies until I get an appology. Her response was completely off topic she “lol”ed and mocked me and said I hope nothing ever happens to Joel or you’rescrewed. I didn’t even respond. She gets so mean if you just keep fueling the fire. Why is she like this
This is a really sensitive subject for me. Don’t be a jerk.
I doubt it’s menopause…she’s been this way my entire life. She won’t have ANY of her kids if she doesn’t soften.

My son was previously on different stimulant medications (Ritalin, Adderall and Metadate). Never really had good response with any. Adderall was okay but he lost so much weight. Now his doctor wants to try Intuniv with him. She says it’s not a stimulant and I was wondering were non stimulants bad. With the others we were able to stop the medication at any time but with this it has to be gradually stopped. So will his body be dependent on this medication like drugs(cocaine or heroin)?

Her husband is truly a hard worker who is drug free and is a doting father. The problem and question is; my daughter steals and sells everything from the house that isn’t nailed down. This past weekend while talking with her son (our eight year old Grandson) he complained that mom sold his Shrek video (and others) that we had given him for his birthday and christmas. My question is: Since my daughter has been to jail twice (30 days or longer) over the past two years, with her husband recently out of prison (over a year free), and they both live with my daughters Mother, what can I possibly say or do to help this situation? Before you ask, the Mother is an enabler (she will stand by her kids no matter what). I know my daughter blames her husband for going to jail the first time, but this situation is so bad that the last time I visited I didn’t even go in the house, my interest is just providing some old fashion good guy for the kids. Any advice?

Will my rewards in Heaven be much greater than the rewards I would be getting if I was constantly selling kilos of cocaine, also will I get to have more rewards than I would be getting if I was constantly selling kilos of cocaine?

I know my idea of a perfect Heaven is getting to have all of the rewards I want

I am a Christian and I do believe Jesus Christ is the son of God and that He has died on the cross for our sins and has rose back from the dead

Otherwise he is a caring husband, good father and excellent son. We have been married for 12 years now and all my efforts for making him quit drinking have gone waste. He just doesn’t want to quit drinking and would never admit that he is drunk. It is now affecting his health also and he is losing interest in sex. Since past few years i have observed that he is not able to perform well in bed. He doesn’t want to listen to anything related with his drinking. But it is affecting our married life badly.

My friend has an alcoholic mother who has had three D.U.I’s in the past 4 years. Not only is she an alcoholic but she treats my best friend, her 17 year old son, absolutely horribly. Today she was screaming at him, got in his face, tried to hit him and he held her back. She slammed her self on the wall to make bruises and say that HE was the one who hit her. My friend took his cell phone and hit record as she was screaming at him and while it was recording she said “I’m going to kill you, hide your body in the woods, and turn you in as a missing person.” Later tonight my friend went to church and let his youth pastor listen to this and he called the cops on her. She got arrested. Considering this situation, how long should she be in jail?

I am 27 (almost 28) and married with one son. I’m heavy, and I want to have a baby. I’ve been trying for a while with my husband… but it isn’t working. I have quit smoking and I have been exercising and working on my weight. I don’t eat meat, cheese, or milk, get a lot of veggies, work out for about 35 minutes a day cardio and 20 min with weights and 3 times a week do yoga at home. . .

I don’t want to do fertility treatments yet and my doctor said I shouldn’t be trying because I am too fat. I don’t know. I’ve always been heavy. I was 311 when I had my son when I was 19. When I was much younger I did meth (from ages 12 to 17) and during that time I was still 200-260. Who has ever seen a fat tweeker? Well that was me.

Of course, I don’t do drugs or drink or anything now! I haven’t touched them in over 10 years – just in case you were wondering.

I had irregular periods for a long time, but started taking Vitex and that evened them out.

It’s been about 9 – 10 months total since we have been trying and nothing. We went through a rough patch May to July, I don’t know – but we weren’t trying then. But all in all it’s been 9-10 months and I am getting so frustrated.

Of course I have “considered” losing weight – heck if you read the first part of the question – I am even working really hard on it! lol

My son is five months old. My mother is an alcoholic. She said she would take care of him. I said “You can’t drink on nights where you watch him the next morning.” She’s is very angry with me now. Am I right? Am I not his parent? Should I not worry about such things? Someone please give me some insight. I am now paying for a babysitter because my mother refuses to listen to reason. Which is fine. I’ll do it. But I don’t want to listen to her whine for the next 10 years.

My son was drunk this weekend and I wasn’t impressed. I’m guessing he’s around 5’9 and 200 pounds. He told me he had capt. Morgans spiced rum with Pepsi but never how many he consumed. So I was wondering how many he had to get that drunk (Mumbling, he was stumbling around etc.)
I’m not challenging him to drink, I already said I wasn’t impressed. I was just wondering how many he had comsumed

My son is 13 and says the reason he wants to move in with his dad is he never gets to see his dad when he visits with him on the weekends because he works and most of the times during the week he works later than normal. When I talk to him about this the only reason he wants to live there from what he has told me is because he can’t see him all the time because he is working. His father moved in with another woman and her son about a year ago. A few months after that my sons dad let his girlfriends son call him dad since his dad wasn’t involved in his life. I think about 3-4 mths later my sons dad was saying that our son wanted to move in with him. Several months have gone by and now the same issue has come up again. My sons dad is an alcoholic and drinks all the time and when he is in the car with my son. I have already told him how I felt about this and he still does it. My son has alot of freedom when he is at his dads and when he comes home is very tired and doesn’t want to wake up for school the next day. And then he tells me they either stayed late playing video games or didn’t go to sleep at all. My son needs structure in his life and I don’t want to keep him from his dad but I also don’t think it is a good idea to live with him. I said he can see him anytime he wants and spend his summers with him. I feel alot has to do to the fact that the girlfriends son lives there all the time and calling him dad and that is a big issue for my son even though he says he doesn’t have a problem with him. Please help I am not sure how to approach this or how to talk to my son about it.

So this guy ran over my epileptic child and I’m trying to prove he was drunk.
He is between 150-190lbs. He says he had ONE drink. (Whiskey on the rocks)
He refused to take the breathalyzer. So an hour and a half later his BAC was .07.
Can you help me find out how much alcohol he originally drank?
Very important.
Think of my son…
