mistie

What is it with this board and kids just whining about how unfair their parents are because they aren't allowed to do whatever they want? It's so ridiculous. They think that they have the most horrible life on earth when so many of them haven't had to deal with reality or having any responsibilities.

My mother in law is constantly trying to run my husbands life. She has told him that he needed to change his best man, made him feel guilty about spending my birthday with me. She wouldn't even let us go to get my hair done without being in the car. Now he is coming home from Iraq and we are about to live together for the first time. She wants to drive through three states to be there while we move in. I don't want to be rude I appreciate the offered help however I would like to see my husband. She has four days where he'll be with them and not have to work. Plus four more days where she'll see him after work. I get nine days of after work time before he goes to see them. Then they all show back up to help me move. How do I inform my in laws and husband that I just want to spend time with him and not his whole family?

My husband has been in the marine corps for a year and a half and he is only making a hundred dollars a pay check more than he was at home. This doesn't seem right.

My husband and I married just two weeks before he left for deployment. He has spent a whole three hours in our home helping me move in before he left. How can I make everything more comfortable for him and make him feel special?
