Aug 30

meeeeeee asked:


my fiance works and i am on food stamps and we are still struggling to get by. if i got a job would the state pay for a babysitter for my 2 year old son? i live in erie county, ny. i would have gotten a job awhile ago but i figured by the time i pay for a babysitter there wouldnt be a point in working. and would i be able to choose who i wanted to watch my son?
i am in a financial struggle and realized a long time ago i wasnt financially ready for a kid but there was no turning back after i found out i was pregnant. please no rude comments about me being poor or how everyone else is paying tax dollars for my son to eat. i realize this and want to get a job. i have a ton of bills and i am trying my hardest to raise my son and i have my family to help out but i dont want their help i want to be an adult get a job and raise my son.

Men only?

Kennedy Kevin’s mommy asked:


I’m a single mom. I have a 12 month old and I will have a little boy at the end of February. Their dad has moved on with another relationship and I want to try to do the same eventually. My question is, would a man want to date a woman with 2 children? I’m very normal. I have a full time job that’s at a reputable company. I’m not on government assistance. They have the same dad. He’s not insane. I spend lots of time with her but I do have a regular babysitter if I choose too. I’m also a student. I’m not looking for a step father or anything extreme just some friends. Is that okay and when can I start looking?

Ex husband hasn’t contacted our son?

Author: admin

Aug 27

ngfhorn asked:


My now ex-husband has not contacted his son for over 2 weeks- including not calling on Christmas or New Years. I know as long as I keep my son happy (he’s 3 now) that it won’t affect him too much- just the occasional Where’s Dada? which I say he’s at his house (thousands of miles from us). I don’t talk bad about his dad to him or in front of him. I am so angry at him though! I left messages asking for him to just call his son- I have no desire to talk to him. He hasn’t returned any of my messages asking why he is doing this and his family has done the same- just totally written us off. The disgusting part is I had him and his family stay in my house the weekend before Christmas for my son’s birthday. They drove 12 hours to seeour son. They were respectful as was I. I even took them to dinner before they left. I do know that the girlfriend (our former babysitter who he chose over his family) went to meet his family over Christmas which is why I assume he is being the way he is. I am just so angry which bugs me because I never hold grudges- part of the reason why I let them stay in my house rather than a hotel! When I left him when he had his affair 6 months ago- before I left I still asked if he would be willing to try to fix things if we went to marriage counseling- again me trying to do what was right for our son. He said he wanted to be with the girlfriend. And now here we are with no communication. What am I supposed to do when he crawls out of his cave to finally call his son? Who knows how long it might be until he wakes up. Am I supposed to act like none of his actions bother me?? Why would anyone choose love over their children?

How can I tell my babysitter to attend to stains on my daughter’s clothes so they don’t become permanent?

Author: admin

Lilac_43 asked:


My daughter is 16 months. She has a private babysitter who has a daughter of her own that is 2 1/2. My problem is that even though she has a large, plastic smock-like bib at the sitter’s house, my daughter often comes home with her shirt covered with stains, as if she never wore a bib at all! I work 10 hour days, so I don’t always get to pre-treat or do laundry right away. When I have tried to bring up the subject, ‘my her shirt is messy today’, Karen, the sitter, always has an excuse, like ‘Oh, she took her bib off and I didn’t notice’. Now, have my daughter myself all day, every day for three days in a row, plus one other evening, and ever morning for breakfast, and she NEVER gets that messy, although I do let her feed herself. I just don’t know how to approach Karen without coming across as bitchy or offensive. I do not dress my daughter in designer stuff, but she does look nice and I already choose not to dress her in certain outfits, because she may come home all stained! I am just tired of spending late nights scrubbing out stains and washing and rewashing, over and over to try to get out stains that could have been prevented if they were treated at the time! Does anyone have any suggestions?
I am a practical mom, so even though my daughter will outgrow her clothes quickly, I still do not want them to be stained, so that I can pass them on to other children I know or sell or donate them, rather than have them just be trash.

Unfortunately, I am a single mother, so I do not have the option of staying home to be with my daughter, unless I want to be on welfare and food stamps, which I do not believe to be a good option, since I am perfectly capable of working.

My daughter has plenty of fun when she is with me, I am not ridiculous about her not getting dirty. I think children should be allowed to get dirty when they are playing. She is not getting dirty while she is playing, she is getting ridiculously messy while she is eating. The point is, if you do not have a helpful response to my question, which is how can I tactfully ask my babysitter to pre-treat stains, then why are you answering?
Thank you, everyone, who has offered helpful suggestions. I do see several promising responses.

My brother is about to marry a b***h?

Blessed asked:


I was the the last one to see her for what she really is. I always try to see the best in people. She had hurt many of his friends and also our own mother, but she was really nice to me. well, she finally showed her true colors to me. The wedding will be in Dominican Republic so many of us can’t come. I have three babies in diapers and no babysitter, so I choose not to go. I would have gone, but not with three babies. Since I declined attending, she was very cruel and said some very hurtful things to me, which shocked me and caused me a lot of pain.

My brother doesn’t seem to notice that his fiance has started fights with so many people in his life, and nobody likes her. No one has said anything to him. is it my place? They’re getting married in 3 months. Should I say anything to him before he makes this huge mistake??
