Congratulations on having done such a Wonderful Job with Your Daughter.
Her Mum would be proud of you both.
You have started by belonging to this group.
You could return to school yourself - many do. When I was a Freshman @ CWRU, One of my felow freshmen was 65 yrs old. He graduated and went on to second career @ NASA.
You could take up a new hobby, Photography, Catch up on all the reading you never got to.
Also, as I said in another thread earlier one could and up in the situation of another CS'er a few months ago whom posted she gave her email to a guy and on the first call opened it up to his thang.
Unfortunately, there are many that would side with him. Not I, as I would never cheat. I would also hope that my Husband would have enough faith in our Marriage to know that.
However, if he wanted a DNA for every child we had, I would let him have one. . . BUT I would wonder what he was doing as well as his commitment to our Marriage.
The post also said the children were now Teenagers and have never known anyone else as their father. The Judge probably ruled in the best interests of the children's mental well-being, as is done here in cases as this,(USA).
What would be interesting to me, since the mother claims no other affairs, is if the DNA shows she is their mother.
There have been some cases where a couple divorced and the Father did not want to pay child support, so claimed he was not the Dad. DNA was done and at the Mother's insistence there was no other man, then the DNA repeated, to find that neither were the parents.
Well, I'd not have that problem. I actually used to never let my dogs kiss me on the lips just the neck or the cheek. Now, it doesn;t bother me. Don't know why the change. Maybe b/c they were the ones that stayed in the picture and licked my tears from all the heartbreak.
I have found that people tended to avoid me when I would only have two drinks the whole night. Even now, it is like you really don't drink do you? Geeze lighten up and have fun. They do not seem to realize fun CAN be had w/o being drunk. Thus, I really don't enjoy the bar scenarios, for this reason and the other is it is usually too dark to Lip-read, I am deaf and the noise level is too over-whelming for my hearing aids to sort.
If I ever have any children, I hope to preferably find them with none: Drugs or alcohol.
On holidays after we were over 16 our parents allowed us 1/2 a glass of Dad's homemade Pear wine.
I never tried hard liquor or drugs until I was 2o yrs old, in my Dorm then later my Sorority. For me, I did not enjoy much drinking and found out I am allergic to pot.
So ended my trial period real fast.
However, I would want my children to be comfortable with me enough to tell me they were using, and if they were in trouble.
In the meantime, until he returns to USA, I will stick to my furbabies. The dogs love to give kisses!!! The largest on especially for her it is as fast and sloppy as she can before you push her away. Only two of the cats do though and the rabbits and Guinea pig? Well if they get their carrots and other veggies . . .
Well stated, Paws. Hope this is the turnaround all of us need.
As for all the others, that feel USA needs to stay out of the rest of the world:
How about we personally list your countries as contacts for help, in our sincere apologies and regrets to refuse those that next ask us for help, and that they may thank YOU all for our refusal?
