Anyone raising your husbands child from a one-night-stand?

  • Posted on May 16, 2011 at 5:20 pm

My husband & I have custody of his child that resulted from an on-night-stand that happened just before we met. We didn’t know about her until about a year ago. I know she needs me (her biomom is a meth-head) and I will take care of her. The problem is, I’m having problems with treating her totally different than my daughter. My husband tries to understand but ultimately thinks it’s not fair. My take on this is…I don’t mind to take care of her but I’m going to make 100% sure my daughter does not suffer because of it in any way.

P.S. We also have my step-son every other weekend, holidays & summer. He’s awesome and we couldn’t have a better relationship.

My daughter is 12, Step-son is 11, new step-daughter is 10.

Looking for comments/advise. Thanks

Did Tom Cruise Make mother’s that suffered from PPd upset?

  • Posted on May 14, 2011 at 1:22 am

When Tom Cruise made the announcement about Brooke Shields.Saying”HOLLYWOOD – Tom Cruise has criticized Hollywood pal Brooke Shields’ “misguided” use of the
anti-depressant Paxil, while declaring the actress’ career as over.

In an interview with Billy Bush on the TV show Access Hollywood, to be

screened on May 26, Cruise speaks of his disappointment to learn

Shields used Paxil to fight post-natal depression following the birth of her

daughter Rowan.

Shields is currently weaning herself off her medication so she and husband

Chris Henchy can have another child.

Cruise, who claims to have helped people fight drug addictions through his

controversial Scientology religion, says the Suddenly Susan actress should have

used vitamins to help her feelings of despair.

Cruise says, “Here is a woman, and I care about Brooke Shields because I

think she is an incredibly talented woman. You look at, where has her career

gone?”

Despite the Minority Report actor’s declaration her career is over, Shields

is currently receiving rave reviews playing murderess Roxie Hart in the London

theatre production of Chicago.

Cruise maintains, “These drugs are dangerous. I have actually helped people

come off.

“When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today, women, and what

you do is you use vitamins. There is a hormonal thing that is going on,

scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about emotional, chemical

imbalances in people, there is no science behind that.

“You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things.”

On what grounds can a father take shared custody or full custody of his children from their mother?

  • Posted on April 27, 2011 at 11:21 am

I have a 14 year old son and a 12 year old daughter from a previous relationship. We ended our relationship shortly after the birth of our second child and soon then after I met and married my current husband and have been married to him for the past 11 years. My ex was not actively involved in the childrens life for the first few years. And I had to constantly pursue him so that he spend sometime with them. In 2000 I found out that he had a heroin problem and limited the time he saw them of which was very little because he never came around. as of recently past six years maybe he has been slowly stablelizing himself and married someone himself although she did enforce his visitation of them from time to time during past couple of years he has dissappeared on both me and his wife. But all in all he has been a stable dad for the past 3 years. We have had a freindly relationship between all involved parties as well and I have made it a point to involve him as much as possible in his childrens lifes. As of recently he has been demanding without consideration of how it will disruppt my household and home, (I do have a child with my current marriage, which these two children are a very important part of.) additional time with his children. When I informed him that I could not just say yes take them without seeing what I can do as far as who is going to watch over my younger child during the time that their older brother watches them, he proceeded to call DYFYS (Division of youth and family services) on me making tons of absurd not founded allegations on me. May I add he did these anonymusly however admitted it to my son when he questioned him on it. The only reason he gave to my son for calling Dyfis was that he was tired of me being the only one who has a say in their lifes. The children are angry with him for what he did and are not ready to talk to him although I everyday tell them they should, it has now been three weeks since the allegations where made by him and he has not even as called his kids. He is requesting joint custody in court and is demanding unreasonable times he is requesting he gets them tuesdays and thursday over night during the school year with e/o weekend starting from Friday to Monday. And during school vacation he wants them every other week. I am not against my children spending time with their father in fact I have always encouraged it, but I feel what he is requesting is not reasonable and he doesnt see how for the past 12 years I have build a life and family with them and my younger child and this will cause a huge detremental impact to all my children not just his. I am afraid of what a judge would say because for the latter years he has been a responsible father except for the fact that he never paid me child support. I dont want to keep kids from him I just want to have a stable home where I do not have to be afraid that he will take me to court at a whim just simply because he wants more time with them. Any suggestions can anyone help me.

How does the Father get his child from DHS if mother was arrested?

  • Posted on April 17, 2011 at 12:20 am

A little over a year ago my ex(common law married in Alabama: papers signed and everything) took my daughter to Oklahoma to visit her parents and had a round trip plane ticket but did not come back. 2 months later she came back to get her things and did not bring my daughter. I tried calling to police dept, but all they could tell me was to get a lawyer and I could not afford one. I had a phone number but she refused to give me an address and would never answer the phone but would call me for money. So about a month ago my ex was arrested in Oklahoma for manufacturing and distributing meth and had our daughter in the house. When she was taken to jail social services took my child and never notified me of anything. Apparently she told them she didn’t know how to get in touch with me at all which was a lie. I found out what happened from my ex’s sister and contacted DHS immediately. Now I have to go through a process which may take 6 months or more to get my daughter back but they told me had she given them my info they would have contacted me to come pick her up and bring her back home with me immediately. I have all the paperwork birth cert/social sec/hospital records/common law marriage papers and EVERYTHING but I am being treated as if I was never in the picture at all. I have a court date next week and I am driving to Oklahoma from Alabama for this which is a long drive and expensive and I will also have to take off work to do so. I have been in touch with the social worker and the foster parents and they have even let me video chat with my daughter. But why is this such a process? I have been trying to get my daughter back with me for over a year now and SHOULD have been contacted immediately when my ex was arrested. I am at a loss and have no idea what to do now. I should have been informed to just come pick my daughter up but now that she has gone into foster care they wont let me take her. What should I do and why are they doing this to me? I have absolutely no criminal background and have a very nice house with my daughters stuff still here and everything. Shouldn’t they just release her to me? Please if anyone could help me I would be very grateful!

Last one from me but i think i saved the best till last..???

  • Posted on April 16, 2011 at 1:21 pm

One day, in line at the works cafeteria, Jack says to Mike behind him,

“My elbow hurts like hell. I suppose I’d better see a doctor.”

“Listen, don’t waste your time down at the surgery,” Mike replies.

“There’s a diagnostic computer at Tesco. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what’s wrong, and what to do about it.

It takes ten seconds and only costs five pounds…..a lot quicker and better than a doctor”.

So Jack collects a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Tesco.

He deposits five pounds and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: “You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks”.

That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Jack began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and masturbated into the mixture for good measure.

Jack hurried back to Tesco, eager to check what would happen. He deposits five pound, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.

The computer prints the following:

1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener.
2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.
3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren’t yours. Get a lawyer.
5. And if you don’t stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better…

……..Thank you for shopping at Tesco.

Why is my daughter still hurting from this situation?

  • Posted on March 18, 2011 at 3:22 am

Last semester my daughter moved in with her “best friend” from college. She lived in a suite style dorm room. (2 bedrooms) 1 bathroom. It was her & her “best friend” & 2 other girls. Every single night the 2 other girls would drink non-stop and make tons of noise. The 2 other girls had been written up for not signing guests into the building as well as drinking violations.

My daughter and her “best friend” went to speak with the RA of the building and he made all 4 of them have a meeting regarding the situation. That night my daughters boyfriend got very ill and she had to drive him to the hospital. Her “best friend” was supposed to come with her but she refused.

While away at the hospital I suspect that this “best friend” had a conversation with these 2 girls and blamed my daughter for making a mess of the bathroom I.E. urinating on the floors, peeing on toilet seats, pubic hair on the toilet seats etc.

My daughter came back and all 3 of them had “supposed” pictures of the bathroom after my daughter used it and accused her of making the mess. She was the only one who cleaned the bathrooms.

My daughter got so upset she went back into her room and began to cry. She said all she wanted to do was sleep because she was stressed about her boyfriend and this situation. BUT her “best friend” insisted they continue to talk to these girls.

Finally things escalated and my daughter said to her friend “sometimes I wish I had a gun.” The “best friend” ran next door to the other girls & they went to the cops and had my daughter arrested.

They told the police that my daughter had a gun in her room. She had to sign a waiver giving them permission to search her room. They searched her room and found NOTHING. They then forced my daughter to go in an ambulance to a hospital to get blood work done at a psych ward. They found no drugs, no stds, no pregnancy, no alcohol no nothing. The people at the hospital were furious at the university for sending my daughter there.

(continued below)
The next day housing told my daughter she would be forced to move out and placed in her own room by herself. She was devastated. She moved out and was very depressed for the rest of the semester.

She became friends with this “best friend” again and forgave her for what happened. The best friend admitted that what she told the police was a lie and a mistake. She said the other 2 girls were mean to her and the bathrooms were still a mess with hair and the toilets still had urine on them.

Soon after, this “best friend” yet again changed her mind and decided not to be friends with my daughter and called her a s*ut and w*ore and talked trashed about and in writing wrote wanted to fight her etc.

My daughter brought this to the head of the building and the building director with witnesses and the building director assumed my daughter was doing “something wrong” and they decided to move my daughter again.
My daughter finally go the brains to stop talking to this lunatic who I later found out from my daughter was a lesbian, popped pills every night, went out to bars and drank obsessively etc.

My daughter has a “lazy eye” that she is unable to fix. We’ve went to numerous doctors about it. When she went to the housing office to get her room switched housing asked her if she was autistic because it seemed she had problems getting along with people and she was unable to look at them directly.

Now my daughter is in a new dorm with a very nice girl but….she can’t seem to get over this situation. She doesn’t want to live on campus anymore and is unsure if she even wants to stay at that university.

Is this normal?
Why can’t she get over this situation?
It was months ago

Should Obama speak of his ‘family values” from his own ‘experience”?

  • Posted on March 16, 2011 at 7:23 am

Obama’s mama was only 17 when Obama was conceived, and was NOT married, then married a polygamist (for those who don’t know what it means look it up) , who only stayed around for 2 years,an alcoholic then cut and ran and died while driving drunk. So when you try to bash Gov Palins daughter, better look back in history, Obama’s own mother did the exact same thing, so Obama’s “typically white” grandmother must have failed then. His parents’ marriage took place six months before his birth on February 2nd, 1961. Nine months before Obama’s birth would be early November 1960, about three to four weeks before Ann Dunham’s 18th birthday on November 29, 1960.

Could the moral difference in character possibly be more clear?

Sarah & Todd Palin: “We’re proud of (our 17 year-old daughter) Bristol’s decision to have her baby and even prouder to become grandparents. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support.”

Barack Obama: “If my daughter makes a mistake, I don’t want her punished with a baby.”
