the way your children act after going down to there drug dealing mothers house every other weekend. They come back acting just like her a liar and munipulator. My 7 year old acts just like her. I know for sure she’s a drug dealer I just don’t have any substantial evidence.The normal signs are there.

I have a ten year old step daughter who I love very much. She has been in my life for six years now. I also have two sons, who I love in the same way. I have a very good relationship with my step daughter. However, her mother has always made things very difficult for my partner and me, and although has never actually stopped my partner from seeing his daughter, has made it very difficult. How do I work with this angry, bitter lady. I would like us to get on for my step daughters sake. We have never said anything like this to my step daughter as this would not be fair. She thinks that everything is fine with us, but is becoming aware that her mother is being difficult and is now remembering the negative things that her mother and her mother’s family are saying to her. Help?

Why should a child have to pay over the Mistakes of their parents?

The Child had no say on whether he wanted to be born or not It is like having to pay a mortgage on a house you did not take out.
I have been watching allot of Talk Shows where the mother would blame all of her problems on her children.

I read that book and I think is a really good book, its funny, is sad, is good. If you aready read that book how can you discuss or just give your point of view for the following:

1- Duscuss the use of discipline in the story that expands into thematic ideas. How the father deal with Byron? How the mother deal with Byron?

2- Many young people live in home with older brothers and/or sisters where one is juvenile delinquent. Discuss how realistic the lives of Byron, Kenny, and Joetta (Joy) are portrayed and how characters can become a voice of young readers.

Thankyou!
Hope find some interesting good advices.

My mother’s 49th birthday is tomorrow and my grandmother (mom’s mom) suggested we throw her a surprise party Saturday to celebrate since she’s never had a real birthday party before. We’ve taken her out to eat and things like that for her birthday, but she’s never had the cake and the streamers and the whole nine.
Here’s the deal: my mother and my cousin (her neice) will be going to Texas tonight to see one of my cousins (again, her neice) graduate tomorrow. They’ll be getting back in to Georgia Saturday night. My grandmother suggested we throw the party at my cousin’s house (the one going with my mother to Texas, of course) Saturday night, surprising my unsuspecting mother when they get back.
I think it’s a great plan, but I’ve never thrown a simple party before, much less a surprise party!
Her favorite colors are yellow and purple so I was thinking about getting the streamers and the cake in those colors and serving margaritas as that’s her favorite drink.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I had my daughter March 9th 2009. I raised her alone for almost a year battling her father for child support. On top of that Child Protective services stepped in not once but on three different occasions. I was a single mom trying to the best I could. My mom isn’t really a mother towards me, so I couldn’t run to her for help. what actually happened is CPS took my daughter from me and placed her with my mom. My mom made the first initial call. I was poor and broke, I had nothing. There is a lot more to the story, A LOT more. But what I’m initially saying is, I gave my daughter up. I felt like I was a huge disgrace to her. The only way I thought she’d have a normal life, a good one at that, was if I gave her up. My daughter’s father Jeremy finally stepped in and is doing a good job with her, she also spends a lot of time with my mother, my dad, step dad, and four younger sisters. I decided to take a break and leave to Georgia, I didn’t intend to stay but I did. I felt I couldn’t go back. I felt I wasn’t strong enough to go through it again. I still feel like I’m not strong enough for my daughter. I do want to be apart of her life. I feel so terrible. I feel worthless.

I’m talking to the moms that gave their child up for adoption. Everyone in my family hates me. They are all still mad, I accept that. I can’t find any strength back home. I feel like I’m so alone there with everyone telling me what to do, parenting classes, counseling, be put on phsyc meds, go under a phsyc evaluation. Theres a lot. I didn’t give up on her, I still don’t. I give up on myself.

Has anyone felt this way? I don’t want to battle with taking a pill every morning to make me happy, I’ve been there done that. How did you feel when you gave your child away so that you knew she’d be in a better place? I’m having the hardest time accepting what I did. I want to go back but I can’t. I really cant. There is no life in me anymore. CPS took it out of me, my mother, dealing with baby daddy, my own father, and all the other little problems. I was so over whelmed. I felt like screaming and no one could hear me scream. Or that they did and completely ignored me. Someone please say something….. I dont want to hear how bad of a mom I am, I know that. I just dont have anyone to lift me up anymore.

ok so here is the deal my mother wants a chihuahua so all i have is 240 dollars. i want to surprise her with that as a gift plus balloons card chocolate and flowers. but the problems is that i don’t know where to buy this chihuahua for this price guys please help do any of you know any websites i can go to. and please no rude comments!!
ok thanks for helping but i understand that i should let my mom pick it out but the thing is that she explain to me by details on how she wants it she wanted a black chihuahua with white spots and she want the puppy to be lay back and mellow. so do you guys still think i should buy it for her

There is not enough incentive to help poor single mothers in the US to put their children up for adoption. Adoption agencies and lawyers make thousands off the deal, yet mothers are paid for "reasonable" medical expenses? What about reasonable "time and materials"? There has to be some way to help them, without creating a slavery situation. There is such a glut of children having children here, and yet we american’s need to go to russia and asia?

I want to buy my mom flowers for mothers day. I wanted to have it delivered to our house Sunday morning. But every where I went it was to expensive. iS there any place that is having mothers day deals? I can’t order online.
