Hi everyone. I want to share a story that has been unfolding in my life and continues to haunt me every day. I don’t know what to do, and my nerves are stretched to the breaking point. Every night, I find myself crying into my pillow before I can fall asleep. No one hears me anyway. But first, let me start from the beginning. My husband and I have been
I’m writing this in a state of utter frustration after yet another argument with my daughter. I can’t bear it anymore and need to share my story. My husband understands, but many of our friends say: what did you expect, your daughter is married now, she has her own family. It’s her husband who dictates her actions – our despised son-in-law! It’s as if he’s brainwashed her! Our daughter
I don’t understand my son-in-law. He forbids me from coming to their house and taking care of my granddaughter. My son-in-law is a very good husband. He loves my daughter very much, earns well, and is a great head of the family. He also loves his daughter dearly, but because he works a lot, he only sees her when she’s asleep and on weekends. The thing is, he believes that his
I divorced my husband 10 years ago after discovering his affair with a much younger woman. I kicked Tom out immediately. It was tough at first, but I realized it wasn’t the end of the world. Especially since I still had plenty of worries. A few years after the divorce, my daughter got married. Her husband moved in
“It looks like he won’t be coming after all. My husband and I have gotten used to it, so we don’t even get upset anymore,” sighs Linda, who was eagerly awaiting her son’s visit. “What happened? Maybe his wife didn’t let him come? If I remember correctly, you two never really got along.” “Maybe so, but my son never tells us anything…”
My daughter just dropped a bombshell, asking me to take in my grandson for good. I’m torn and need your advice!
Emily never boasted about her marriage, but secretly she was very proud of her family. She and John had been together for only a few years, but they had already gotten married, moved in together, and had an adorable daughter. With John, she felt as if she was behind a stone wall, although sometimes that wall shielded her too much from the outside world. Emily never
My husband and I have a young child and have been married for 6 years. During this time, we’ve faced numerous challenges: financial struggles, trust issues in our marriage, unemployment, and mental health crises. But we managed to get through it all together and were happy until recently. My husband is an only child and his father, who lives out of town, decided to move in with us for five months. We live in my husband’s apartment. However, from the very first day, we couldn’t find common ground with him.
He decided to go to his parents’ house after work to avoid infecting the children. With two small sick kids, it would be a disaster, so I supported his decision. But things didn’t go as planned.
When my first child was born, I wanted to provide the happiest childhood possible, always striving to meet my son’s every need. I’ve always been practical and resourceful, but sometimes family expectations can be overwhelming.
She has two grandkids — one from her son and one from her daughter. She dreams of taking them to the beach, but her unique approach to planning vacations leaves much to be desired. Not all family members are on board.
I need advice on how to reconnect with my son after a difficult past. Any tips or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
