    I really need advice

    This is probably going to be long. DH's parents have been raising his sisters girls since they were infants (T is now 17 and A 13). DH's sister and her ex both gave up their rights to the kids. The dad comes to see them for a couple hours maybe once every 3 years. The mom goes over frequently...

    Has it really been over a year since I've been here?!

    I was lying in bed thinking about how quickly things are changing in my life, I suddenly thought of this forum. So much has happened since I've last been here. My daughters are now 16 and 14 1/2. This school year has been so busy that I spend 90% of my time one of their schools or in my car...

    [__ Prayer __] Surgery was a success! Here's to a new life!

    I had a pretty major surgery on September 12th. I've been suffering for several years and my dr at the time just kept wanting to pump me full of meds and injections. I went for a 2nd opinion and the dr suggested surgery (what I had been fighting for for YEARS). I had a total hysterectomy...

    How important do you feel extracurricular activities/sports are?

    My girls haven't been involved in any sort of activities for several years now. My oldest has tried out for many sports in middle school but she's never made the cut. She's never given up though and I give her SO much credit for continuing to go for what she wants. Last week she went to cheer...

    Where did I fail?! What is going on with my girls?!

    K (my 14 year old) came in my room while I was in bed late last night and shut my bedroom door. She started crying and told me that God has been telling her to tell me something that happened but that she's been too scared to but that God keeps telling her that I wouldn't get mad. So I'm sitting...

    Let me tell you what my 12 year old turd did...

    Just last week I replied in another thread saying teens couldn't be trusted. My 12 year old proved me to that this past weekend. Grrrr... We live in a small town and have a Spring festival each year. I took her, my 14 year old and their 13 year old friend and we met up with my best friend. As...

    Aborting puppies in a dog?

    Monday during rush hour traffic, there were 2 dogs wandering in and out of traffic and it's a miracle they didn't get run over. I told myself to ignore them, but I couldn't when I looked in the rear view mirror and saw cars slamming on brakes, yelling at the dogs and honking horns. Nobody was...

    [__ Prayer __] Job prayer answered

    I had been unhappy at my job for a long time and had been applying places for almost a year (I'm a Phlebotomist and was working in an extremely large dr office). I FINALLY got a new job and this was my first week. It is absolutely amazing! I'm going to be SO happy there! My old job had me so...

    Is she normal or a brat?

    My 14 year old daughter is driving me crazy. We are so much alike that we constantly butt heads. I've been TRYING my hardest to ignore her when she acts up, but we are both strong willed and opinionated which usually results in a yelling match between the two of us. I don't consider my kids...

    Out of state school field trips *vent*

    I'm sorry, but I have to vent a moment. My daughter just turned 14. She's in the 8th grade at a public school. In 6th grade, the students all went from North Carolina (where we live) to Alabama for 4 days to Space Camp. My DD didn't go because we just didn't feel comfortable sending her that...

    "Good Sex" series for youth. Should I be concerned? Is this normal with churches now?

    Our church has a lot of small groups that you can join. Well, the teens have their own groups and the parents have different groups they can join. Once a month, the teens and the parents all get together and have a joint service/group and it's great. LOVE it! This past Sunday we skipped the...

    What is WRONG with parents these days?!

    I have an almost 14 year old and a 12 year old...both girls. I'm absolutely SHOCKED at the way these parents let their daughters dress these days. What's real bad is that they encourage it!!!! WHY?! Because they want their girls to be popular?! Thankfully, my daughters middle school has a...

    Teens and boyfriends

    My 13 year old has her first boyfriend. I can't control what goes on while they are in school but I can control what goes on out of school. All her friends are constantly being dropped off places unattended and I refuse to let that happen. I read their facebook pages and see what they're up...

    [__ Prayer __] My aunt needs prayer

    I think that she is FINALLY going to get out of a 30 year abusive relationship. Please pray that God gives her the strength to do this. Her life is on the line, as my uncle has threatened to kill her and he's now threatened to kill his friend that refused to give him a gun. It's a HUGE mess. :(
