Mr Mooch

   I have a younger sister who married two moochers.It nearly cost her everthing in her life including her childeren. She now lives on welfare.She told me she will never marry agian cause she is abad chose of men.I say dump them you don't need people like that in your like.I have ssen it from a bystander.The guy almost destroyed my sister.She now has to live on welfare because of him.She worked two jobs suprting him and her kids and ended up engured for good.Two back surgerys.When she couldn't support him anymore he left her in a bed and moved in onther woman to her home got a resraning order agianst her so she had to move out.He took everthing she owned including the kids things.She had to start over with nothing.Her first was a moocher as well.He has never paid child support for his kids ever.He lived off her also her never worked a day in his life.He still doesn't work.The second husband of hers went to prison and is now dead.So moochers only can bring down your life and ruin it.So get ride of the that man befor you are on welfare too.

crazy in laws

   I think he needs to to his family and run.I think his mom needs very serious mental help.I  had a mother inlaw who was minipulative.When she said job my husband jumped.She would do things to me that was in my opinion very mean.He would always say she  was just joking.She put her dog in my lap when she knew it had a bladder problem then offered nothing to clean up.She hung my panties from her resurant wemans door and left them thier to mark to wemans bathroom.I was upset she said it was a joke and he defended her.We invited her to go out to dinner with us.When we got thier she had cooked a whole dinner.That was not the problem.She cooked everything I couldn't eat.Then appoligisted to her son and said I could just watch them eat and eat later.I had nothing to eat that night at all.he defended his mom say she didn't mea to leave me out.and told me to starve.I was not unhappy to go to her funeral.I was indeferant to it.I was sad for my h.I didn't let him rearange my house to look like his mothers either.I told him when we remodle has it is still going on.If your mother liked it,It well not be put in our house. 

  I say that your husband needs to deal with his mom not you and never put mom above you and your needs.I say he needs to take you and his kids and run change states and names .I do not feel as if you can have a normal relationship with her couse she is not normal in the head.Maybe your chideren have inherited his moms illness.I know from personal experince that mom inlaws can do really trible things and smile as if they think it is a joke.and sons will defend mom even if it hurts the family they love.

Hi,  I have know idea where to start except maybe from the beginning...will try to make this short...my son is 11yrs old and began his education at a catholic school where he went for 6 years.  At this school he was teased and tormented all the time by different kids in his class..they found trigger points that would get his goat up and they would persist until he would retaliate and then they would dob him . ultimately he would get into trouble and they would win...this went on for years until oneday a teacher told me that it wasnt his fault...he was being teased..I got in touch with the school councillor but she didnt have any answers..eventually i got a private psych involved and he told me that the children in my sons class had a learned behaviour that would not change until the school recognised that it was a class issue not my sons issue....I battled with the school for a couple of more years until the private psych told me that my son would in all likely hood become a statistic by the time he was 16 if I didnt move him...my son in all this time thought the treatment of him was normal and didnt want to move..i had to make the decision to get him out of that enviroment and so last year I moved him 3 weeks into the new school year..... 

Things went okay last year...there where a couple of altercations where an older girl teased him and it hurt his feelings ..he told her to go away and tried his best to ignore her....I also sent him to a camp and a workshop that was to help kids deal with bullying and they taught them about emotions and how and why we have them.... 

This year hasnt started off well.... one of the boys at his new school has met up with some of the boys from his old school and well they have said things over the computer about him saying he is a gaylord, loser, faggot and that no one likes him.....the boy at his new school couldnt wait to tell him this stuff and when my son told him to shut up the boy kept at him ...my son doing art at the time had a skewer in his hand and he stabbed the boy in the arm with it......I got a call from the headmaster who said both boys had said stuff and that they would be moved and I thought that was the end of it.....the other boys mother approached me in the car park and went right off..but she bought up some stuff that I had never heard of..and apparently my son had said some pretty awful things...I found that unusual as my son reacts physically as he doesnt have the tools to verbally attack..its like he shuts down ..part of the damage that occured at the other school .... 

I guess what I am trying to figure out is ...how can I get my son to ignore these kids....He tries soooo hard but they persist.....I tell him to go to a teacher....when I ask him why he does it ..he says that they make him angry...I tell him I understand this ...but he needs to walk away...if he doesnt he will end up in real strife as he gets older.....I worry terribly about him....these kids are fast learners...and they are learning that if  they can tease him enough they will get a reaction....that reaction is what gets him in trouble.... 

If any one has any advice...I would be real interested in hearing it...I want this issue gone before high school ...

You need to get the school invoved.Report evey incedent.make sure he has a safe way home efter school.Make sure the school knows you know your rights and your child rights about the law on bulling.Then get him into couceling with someone who knows how to deal with childeren who have been bullied.The squeky wheel gets the grease.You have to be a squeeky wheel at the school level.I had to be They don't like me much but my son has had very little trouble this year.don't yell but make sure you take notes know what you are talking about and follow through with what you say you are going to do if they do nothing to stop it.Talk to the school councelor and get her to help out to.They can be a great advicate on your childs side to stop the bulling.You have to know the laws and the school policy on bulling.you can't go in yelling it only hurts your case calm and very informed about things.If your are yelling they turn it aginst you and make you out to be a over reactive parent who knows nothing.Make them do what the law requires and the school policy requres them to do.you are his advicate.It is very hard but the only thing you can do.Make sure he can get to school and home safly.You must call the cops if they are doing it off school grounds and press charges on them. Make sure you get him someone to talk to about how he is feeling.

I Married one

I married one he spent money on himself and not on me or our kids.It got to the piont I was dumpster diving to find clothes for me and the kids while he had new clothers to ware and shoes.If we ran out of food he would go out to eat and leave us to sttarve at home.I finaly had it with him and one day when we were going out to see some of his family I dressed in his clothes no shoes and put the kids in the most outrages clothes in thies closets no shoes cause they had none that fit them and the clothes didn't fit.We went to visist his family.He was so embaressed.I told them all when asked why he had new clothes and the kids and I were dressed so bad.I said he spends the mony on himself and bills not on the family.I was saked what happened to the mon I earned I told them he told me I was not good enough to have any and was ordered to hand it over to him.Needless to say he was so embaressed by this that he lets me get what I and the kids need.As for himself.He is the one to have only one pare of pants and just a few shirts.I could care less either I and our kids walked around warin nothing for sveral years.He is still a cheapsake in many wys but I have leaned to put the screws to him if I do not get what is needed for our family.I have never spent but what is needed.He on the other hand got us into 40 thousand dollare of debt. and he is the one working on getting us out of it not me.I never was allowed to have or spend money.Until know I am the one who has never gotten us into debt.

Quote From: lew11a

I actually found myself cheering for the "cheapskate" husband--I couldn't believe he was being berated for trying to save money and resources!  Using tape to repair a perfectly good diaper (which, by the way, will be peed and pooped in and thrown away) was a logical thing to do, not cheap.  Too many people are so quick to throw things away that could be saved with a little time or ingenuity.  It was refreshing to see someone with a thrifty mindset.   

  

This husband should, however, make sure to make his wife feel special--paying compliments, doing things without being asked, leaving "love" notes--all contribute to a healthy marriage.  People who love and care for each other should not need to prove it by buying each other gifts.  Does she make him feel special--or is she constantly criticizing him for his "thrifty" tendencies?   

  

  

   I think you can be to cheap.He is a cheap skate in my books.You do need to spend some money on your spouse dand do the things you say to.It is very reduculas to glue pants back to gether when you can go to walmart and but a new pair for $10.00.only a vey brake person would do that.As they say you Can't take it with you when you die.I am not saying to get into dept but.have fun while you are on this planet.enjoy life I have seen.First hand pepole who are very cheap and all look like very unhappy people.Why not enjoy yourself without getting into debt.and prvide for you family .The pepole around the cheap skates our unhappy and others are always making fun of them at thier expence.So cheaskates cannot be have to much fun in life if they are always worried about how to save a penny.I know that thier are not much fun to be aound or to live with.very boring people.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but you need to go to school or do some reading to get yourself more educated. I am not sure what kind of job you have, but if you need to get out of debt, you should get your spelling and writing a bit better so you can make more money! Sorry if that sounds mean!
 I can spell.I just more often then not hit the wrong keys.Then I forget to use the spell check. As soon as I went through the bills and did a debt analysis.We went on a debt diet.We have no more credt cards.We got most of our rates down. We live on a budget.We our almost out of debt.As for my h he has come to the realization that his needs come last.The kids come first I come second.That is needs not the fun suff.We do fun stuff when we can aford it.Right now I am tring to figure out how to fit braces,college,a working car in to our budget.I am not a uneducated person although I did not go to collage.I did graduate from high school.I would sometime in the future like to go to a technical school.I have my hands full at this time getting my three kids through the maze of this school system. All fo them are on I.E.P.'s.I cannot at this time aford to go back to school.I am not stupid person I just made a mistake at a young age out of high school and married young and stupid. My friend likes to say at that time we all married stupid and young it was back in the late 1970's when evryone I knew was getting married right out of school.So I did to.Not to say I didn't love him.We both needed to grow up.I did I learned to stand up for myself and my kids.I found my voice.I use It alot now.We both have to agree on the big items or he gets into trouble with me.So he spends nothing that will cost alot or we have a chat and take it back.He know consults me on the spending of our money we set down and go over our bills.I am not uneducated just a bad speller on this thing.I was a very young bride to a very young stupid man.He now sees the light..I have advised my kids that they must be out of college traveled all over gotten what the want out of life.And have a good career and money.Before they get involved with a life partner.The older you are the more education you have .The better you will be at coping with what life has to offer.I am not saying toget married and have kids well into your 50's.But I think it is better to wait to get married in your mid to late 20's or even in your early 30's.I will go back to school at sometime.I am a good speller just a bad typer and spell checker.Not all of us can type with perfection

Thank you all so very much for your responses.  Because of all of this stuff that has happen this year my daughter is now struggling to make it through this year in school and we are just working to make it through.  She is and always has been an A, B and C student but this year since all of this stuff with these kids her grades went way down.  So we are trying to help her make it through the year she can do it but the problem is her self esteem.  I am doing my best to keep her self esteem up and I hope between now and the end of school we dont have any more problems with these kids.  About our situation I want to go to the school board soooo bad but I dont want it to come back to my daughter since its not only the kids that are making these things up its also the vice principal and teachers just automatically blaming my daughter so I dont want the teachers and the vice principal doing anything if I go to the school board I feel like Im stuck cause I know it needs to be done.

    

     I know from my own expreince With bullies and schools how hard it is.You have to do what is right for your child and sometimes as parents we struggle to find that answer.Mine has not been a easy road either.Though this year has been easy then the last few.My son has only had just a few problems.If it were me I would go to the school board but that is my opinion.I went to the police to to see if I could press charges.I did press charges agianst them.They didn't get much time  just comunnity service and had to write a letter to my son.The school was and still is not to happy with me I am know as the bitch.I really don't care what they think of me just as long as my son does not get picked on.They use to and still do blame him if he has problems with kids.But he has A iep so I wrote it so if anything happens they get into trouble.I understand your problem.Tell her this is not her fault that  there are alot of people who are on her side.tell her I am sorry as a onther parent of a child who went and still is some what going throught this Iam praing for her.Good luck!!!!!Sorry about my spelling.

web chats

My two sons were on a sight that I had checked out and found to be a okay sight I thought.I would check up on them to make sure they were not doing anything inapropriate.I found nothing wrong with what they were doing.It was a place where they could go and role play with other kids.It was on this silly game called megaman.it was fun for them I always check up on them i could see nothing wrong with it.no cussing no porn I thought it was all right.What I didn't realize is that the guy running it would ban kids for any reason even if they spelled words wrong.Well needles to say my oldest got banned for bad spelling,getting of subject,and asking the webmaster a question.When as a parent I was confused about why I emailed him.Well I recived a e-mail back so upsetting so.It called me names and made fun of my spelling errors and my parenting skills.I didnt reply.All I asked As a parent of a child with disabilites out of concern I would like to know what he did to get banned.I was one who monitored his computer time and saw nothing he did to concern me.He letter back was rude to say the least. So today my younger son went to his area on the sight while I was with him and he was banned to.I do not  alow my kids to go to chat areas but thought this was a safe and a fun place for them.Does anyone out thie know of onther place safe place were my sons can go to role play and chat with kids thier own age.I can talk to the webmaster and not get rude relys.Please let me know.I only want safe and fun place for my kids to be.Or am I dreaming of a place that is not real.Please no not make fun of my typing errors I have had enough of that.I do hit the wrong keys sometimes.
