We're still planning on spending Easter Sunday together cause he doesn't wish to be alone right now.If he wishes to talk about her I'm planning on just being a good listener.
I'm trying to figure out ways that I can comfort my neighbor guy who's also become my best friend.He was there for me when I lost my late husband and today he found out that his ex wife passed away today.They were only married a short time and had their normal ups and downs just like anyone else does and but I could tell by how upset he was when he was told the sad news about her.It just breaks my heart to my best friend hurting.
Next comes the Ankle-biting or what is considered brainwashing of the child/children.
Where either parent is alittle late for their childrens sports events ect.Either of the parents make comments that if they really cared that they would've shown up 5 minutes early.
Or if either parent had promised the children that they would take them to a movie ect.Or when either parent complains about the other enforces the rules when the child/children on visiting days.
When my older sister and her husband were divorced she would constantly run down her two childrens father to them.They're now adults and they both refuse to have anything to do with their mother.She's not even welcome in their homes.
I've been hearing so much about parents being/getting divorced and how it can sometimes affect the children.
I also heard that children can/will often learn to blame themselves for their parents divorce and think it must've been something they did to cause their parenst to split up.
While volunteering in a school classroom prior to spring break the other day I overheard a little boy who's parents were divorced tell his teacher that maybe if he'd been good and hadn't got into so much trouble then maybe his parents would still be together.That little childs comments pulled at my heart strings and I was close to tears.It saddened me to learn just how parents seem to hurt their children and sometimes use them as pons in order to get back at their exes.No wonder there are so many messed up children.
I say Never make your kids choose sides.Keep your anger and bitterness away from the kids no matter what the reasons why the divorce.This is NOT the fault of the kids and certainly NOT their fight.Never place the total blame on either parent no matter who's fault for the marriage breakup.Never put a ex-spouse down to the children.
After the children return or go for a visit with either parent never ever "pump" the children for info about the other parent.Like asking if mommy or daddy have a boyfriend or girlfriend.Don't make them pay for something to which they had no control over.
It's about a Minister and his wife and kids.There's been episodes about the troops in Iraq, teenage pregancy, and teenage drinking.Some of the show soes relate to real life.
1.I'd force the super rich to pay their fair share of taxes.
2.Improve the education system.
3.Get rid of proverty in the U.S.As far as I'm concerned there shouldn't be proverty here.
4.Make sure that anyone is already employed or seeking work that they are able to earn enough to live on.So they wouldn't have to struggle to support themselves or their families.
5.Make it so the ones who earn more money pay more taxes then the ones who don't earn quite as much.
6.Make laws tougher on drunk drivers.
Right now I can only come up with 6 but will post more ideas when I think of them.
Yup there's something going on betweem me and my neighbor alright,It's called/considered friendship.We've become real good friends and were there for each other when we were both going through hard times.I'd much rather have one real good friend then several of them who aren't real friends.
Had a beautiful day.My neighbor guy took me out to breakfast in the morning.This evening we had supper together.Easter when I'm through volunteering at a nursing home him and me will be having Easter dinner together since we're both be alone.
I don't become depressed if my mailbox doesn't turn red cause it's not the end of my world.
If and when I do recieve me I will answer back just as long as those mails don't contain someones email addy.If they don't regularlly post within the forums I will delete them.
Here's what I posted on March 9th and I still stand by what I stated.
Been homeless twice when I was married to my late husband and at the time our sons were real young.MY late husband lost his job because the feds closed his bosses steel company because she neglected to pay her taxes.
Well when his umeployment benefits ran out we ended up selling most of what we owned,we were in debt for back rent and acouple car payments.
Later on we ended up in a shelter home.We didn't sell ourselves so to speak but we did what we needed to do provide for our kids.
I think it's because it makes them appear to feel like a bigger person to put others down.When to me they appear to look just that must of a smaller person.

RE: why look too old ?
I don't know what all the fuss is about.I've seen people who look older then their age and younger.
