  • Opinion on a "friend"?

    I was friends with this woman, but after a disagreement about me telling her getting a second opinion for her child condition she got mad at me. After her not calling me for about a month or so I called her because our children are friends and I was concerned about her and the kids. I asked herpoint blank was she still mad, she claims see never was. Haven't talked to her since. Mind you we talked 2-3 times a week.

    The argument was about a doctor operating on her child's and the doctor she took here child to happens to be the same doctor.my child goes to for a problem be had. She asked me what I thought and I told no one is cutting on my child without second opinion first. She got mad because I told there is no way she going to tell me that he's the only doctor who does this type of surgery. We have the same insurance and I knew he wasn't. Don't get me wrong he's a great doctor, but if its my child I'm checking all avenue unless time does not permit it.

  • What do you do when your Mom has issues with you?

    My mother and me do have the best relationship and anytime we argue she brings my dad, her ex into it. They have been divorced for over 25 years! She believe that my relationship with him should be the same as my relationship with her. The only differences my dad does not interfere in my life. Ex: My relationship with my dad's mother has never been good because this woman would make such bad comments about my mother I couldn't stand. The last straw was when I was she called me and evil lying child because I defended my mother and out of all of her grandchildren I was the redhead stepchild made to do everything. I would go to mother and tell her what my grandma did and her answer was the same each time "I wasn't there". I don't know about ya'll,but if my child comes to me crying about something their grandma did and you know this person has a bad history with you from jump it warrants you checking it out. My mother never did and she brings this up with me if we have any arguments about anything which is silly because she then say "why don't I act this way with your dad?" For one thing my dad apologize for his mother actions and I did not know this until recently that my dad talked to her about this. I explain to my mother before that she never defended me on this, but let me get hurt and tell me to get over it. Mind you all my friends think the world of my mom, which is fine I just don't have that type of mother and daughter relationship with her. I love her I just don't like being around her. I believe she jealousy because my relationship with my dad is stronger. I was raised by her and my relationship with my dad wasn't always perfect either because I resented him for a lot things when they divorced, but I moved on from them because it made me sick to hold the crap in.

    Before anyone ask yes I'm in therapy because this and other things and this is another things she throws in my face. She'll make the comments "I need to talk to your therapist" and "I'm like why" her answer, I don't believe your telling her the who story". I told her "half a story ain't no story". I wanted all of my boys know they can come to me not just 2 out of 3.

  • What do you do with an overbearing mother?

    My mother is overbearing when comes to her opinion on my life with my children.Yes, everyone has one, but when is enough a enough? Example I have three boys and my mother constantly trying to give me advice even when I don't ask on how to raise them. It starting to annoy me because my oldest is always "Grandma said this and that" and tries to play me against his grandma, his dad, and me. She tends to undermine my authority with my sons. I'm her youngest child and was the first one to move out at 19 because me and her butt heads and my children are her only grandchildren to give you a little insight. How do handle a overbearing mother? It's like she want to be their mother. I've already told her if any of my sons get out line and she had something to do with I would sign over custody to her because if he's only going to go by with what she say's then she needs to support him.

    Here's little more information: No, I've never been a teenage mom, I use to babysit kids and work in daycare from age 11-19 during my younger years and I'm not the only relative she does this to, she's just worse with me. I tried to talk to her, but it tends to be a big argument.

  • What do you do when you know your child school is lying on your child?

    Short story: My child got in trouble at middle school. I know my child played a part in how this mess started because he did not follow directions, but I know for fact that two of the allegations against my son are lies because the AP and Security lied at the hearing we went to and changed their story twice. My child distrust the school system as it is because of incident that him when he first began school, but did not tell me about until earlier year. I appealed the ruling against him and they made his punishment worst.How can tell my child to trust the authority at the school when they are capable of threatening, intimidating and lying on my child? As a parent what would you do? I tried to handle this on my own with his father, but I'm overwhelmed with angry and his dad just want our child to be the happy child we know him to be. Our child know what he could have did differently, but how do you stop the teachers and staff from continue this same process again?

    And before anyone ask; No, I'm not a overprotective mother. My child has been hurt by the school system and they are allowed to get away with damaging and blaming my child.

  • Do you think this a good thing?

    My eight year is real aggressive and I decided to let him express this through football. I figure if he get knocked down a few times maybe he'll learn to adjust his attitude. The only time I've seen will to act right was when my friend nephew chased him all round to play with him. The little boy plays rough just like my son and he didn't like it.

  • A/C problem: The line that leads to my unit has ice on it....?

    Last night my son decide to mess with the thermostat, but he turned it on heat and 80 degrees. I notice this because of the smell of heat and the house was getting warm. Then he did it again apparently when I went to sleep only he did the opposite he turned it down to 50 degrees on cool. Needless to say, the house started get warm, but I couldn't figure out why so I check the vent I didn't feel any cool air, but I could hear the A/C going. I went to check my lines to make sure they were not blocked because I had that problem before. This when I found the ice on the line that lead to A/C unit outside to the line inside. What damage can this cause?

  • Why do some Northerners come to the South and say that they hated it and say hateful things, but don't leave?

    Case in point: I was in a store and the customer was mad at the nail tech because she couldn't give her crisp money. Then had the nerve to say it was because the further she was down South the more problems she had. She was from Brooklyn and the nail tech was from Arizona by way of China? Let's do a little history to the civil war: the plantation owners that could leave and did leave the South went where? Hmmm..
