My ex wife has a court date on 6/4 for probation violation for a o v i .She has been drinking worse than when she was caught and has stayed with six different people since it happend she does not see the kids or call them .When she found out that she had a court date she went into rehab to dry up for court. This is her fourth time in rehab in twelve months ,every time she gets in trouble she goes in to look like she is trying to sober up but it is all a show . She recieved her o v i in Morrow county and lives in Cuyahoga. She has never been tested for alcohol the year that she has been on on probation and has a year left . Does anyone know what i can do to get the court to start testing her ? She has no fear of getting caught . When she was caught she had my daughter and niece in her van and blew a 3.1but got off on the child endangering charge. I would like to see her get help so my children can have a relationship with her again even if it means her going to jail to dry up.
Am I obligated to let my daughters father see her.?
My daughters father called me the other day after 7 months and asked to see her. We used to have an agreement that he only pay 200 dollars a month to help out with costs instead of filing child support. When he continuously missed payments and I would have to call him to arange for her to see him. I quite calling and filed support. He didn’t call for 7 months. We were never married and our daughter is autistic. Oh, and I’m pretty sure he was intoxicated when he called. He is an alcoholic. At least I think he is because he drinks every day. What do I do and what is legal.
…drunk mom…..age 33…..driving…..?
….has her 10 year old daughter riding up front and 13 year old son riding in bed of truck. Driving 60 in a 30…loses control and wraps the truck around a pole. Her daughter is in intensive care and her son died that night from massive brain trauma. How can a human live with themselves doing this?
Is my boyfriend smoking heroin?
Since before I was with the father of my child, I’ve known he was a drug abuser. But before we had gotten together, he convinced me he was clean and was only smoking pot. It’s 7 months later, and I’m pregnant with our daughter and he just go out of detox. He was a heroin/pain killer abuser. So far, he’s been doing really well, but things have been a little off lately. He’s sweaty, he’s tired all the time, and I’ve found rectangle aluminum foil pieces missing from the box….he’s been going to the bathroom a lot more complaining of his ‘stomach’ and he’s been vomiting. He’s been taking a candle that’s lit in there also because his lighter broke. I found a tube of toilet paper under the sink, and he’s in there for about 15-20 minutes. He’s been snapping at me and he doesn’t really have an appetite until he smokes pot. I’m afraid he’s smoking heroin and would really like to know what you think.
Are you glad Proposition 1 passed in Michigan?
I voted yes for many reasons to legalize medical marijuana, these are just a few. Do you think it is a good idea or a bad idea? Weigh in with the pros and cons to accentuate your points please.
The U.S.A demonizes an organic plant (marijuana), yet advocates the use of alcohol, synthetic drugs such as vicoden, oxycontin, paxil, and many other mind altering drugs. I just don’t understand the logic in that. It makes no sense. PROHIBITION NEVER WORKS AS WELL AS DE-CRIMINALIZATION. 50% of Americas prisons house NON VIOLENT DRUG USERS!!! Want to help fix the economy? Stop demonizing a stupid plant.
One Mothers account
My darling daughter, Caprice, lost her battle against cancer this July. She graduated from college in December, was diagnosed with T cell lymphoma in March, and four months later her suffering was over.
Three years ago, my 72-year-old mother, Phyllis O’Grady, lost her battle against endometrial cancer.
It is heart-wrenching to watch our loved ones suffer. As caretakers, we yearn to do everything in our power to stop their pain and increase their odds of recovery.
Cancer patients develop an aversion to food. Chemotherapy decreases their appetites, causes nausea, and weakens their immune systems. It is a catch-22. Cancer sufferers need nourishment, yet eating becomes an ordeal.
Marijuana, unlike narcotics and other medications, has minimal side effects and major benefits. It increases appetites, reduces nausea, eases muscle pain, reduces stress, and allows patients to get much-needed rest and relief from their symptoms. It also is non-addictive.
I wish my daughter and my mother would have had legal access to this option. Our loved ones deserve all the comfort and compassion we can provide throughout their very difficult — and very painful — journeys.

C-section Scar Hurting 14 months after?
I had an emergency C-section with my daughter in july 2008. I train horses and started ridding 8 weeks after and recently started having sex again (it had been a year and a half since i had had sex). and my c-section scar still hurts when I ride allot and now its hurting when im having sex. Is this normal for it still to hurt? And sometimes it hurts so bad I have to take pain killers for it (vikaden or percocet, sorry its miss spelled)
no there is no bluging infact my scar is starting to fade really well
how do you like this one??(plz..star if u do)?
A mother passing by her daughter’s bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then she saw an envelope propped up prominently on the center of the bed. It was addressed, “Mom.” With the worst premonition, she opened the envelope and read the letter with trembling hands:
Dear Mom: It is with great regret and sorrow that I’m writing you. I had to elope with my new boyfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with Dad and you. I’ve been finding real passion with Ahmed and he is so nice-even with all his piercings, tattoos, beard, and his motorcycle clothes. But it’s not only the passion Mom, I’m pregnant and Ahmed said that we will be very happy. He already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. He wants to have many more children with me and that’s now one of my dreams too. Ahmed taught me that marijuana doesn’t really hurt anyone and we’ll be growing it for us and trading it with his friends for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we’ll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Ahmed can get better; he sure deserves it!! Don’t worry Mom, I’m 15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I’m sure we’ll be back to visit so you can get to know your grand children.
Your daughter, Judith
PS: Mom, none of the above is true. I’m over at the neighbor’s house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than my report card that’s in my desk center drawer. I love you! Call when it is safe for me to come home.
People please answer this question also.. it istn showing up..

I caught my husband eating Chittlens, apparently he is addicted to eating them and says he can not stop?
Should I fear for the life of my daughter, what if late at night he wakes up in a Chittlen craze cant find any and goes after our little Chittlen? Do you think he will be able to control himself, or should I leave him just to be safe?
i am bitter bout a breakup, how do i deal with that with my daughter?
i was in a serious relationship for 5 years and we have one child together, he is a crackhead that is currently in jail but set to get out soon, i dont want anythign to do with him, but he is her dad, how do i portray my feelings to her, how do i deal with him and all his faults that i dealt with, without making my daughter bitter or unknowing of her father, do i just keep up with my i hate him, and i want him to be as miserable additude, do i just not talk about him and hope for the best, how do i deal with the future, with him maybe or maybe not in her life, i want him to have nothing to do with her, part of that is because of my feelings for him, but mostly because i dont want her to see his addictions, or have the very poor relationship that he has with his other 2 children that he abandoned to come here,
he left them to come to me, to leave his problems in N.Y and then left us to go to TN to live with anouther woman, again running away, how do i hate him and her not hate me?
I need to leave my daughter’s father, where should I turn for support?
My daughter is 4 months old. Her father and I are living together. He is an alcoholic. I have asked him to stop bringing alcohol in the house. He can’t. He is a miserable person.
I know he needs help, but I cannot help him. I know I need to leave, but I am not strong enough.
Will any single mom’s who have left their babies father please share your stories. Also, what was the best support that you had?
