Despite my reservations, my fiancé insisted on having a church ceremony to ensure his grandmother’s presence.
My partner and I recently sent out wedding invitations for our September wedding. To provide some context, I initially preferred a non-traditional wedding, opting for a courthouse ceremony followed by a small dinner with close family and friends. However, my partner desired a wedding ceremony and reception, emphasizing its significance to his family as well. We compromised on a small wedding with 50 guests and began searching for a suitable venue. We stumbled upon a beautifully renovated old schoolhouse in my hometown, which seemed perfect.

The yearning to give their offspring a top-notch education is a shared desire among parents. Nevertheless, what occurs when a child's educational journey is marred by unceasing torment and intimidation?
To win cash, my MIL crossed boundaries, by entering our baby into an online contest without our permission.
To give some context, before the birth of our baby, my husband and I established ground rules with our family members. We clearly communicated that only my husband would be present at the hospital, and even if we were to have one additional person, it would be my own mother, though we ultimately decided to cherish the experience as just the two of us. We also emphasized that no one should visit unannounced and that anyone who wanted to hold the baby must wash their hands and avoid kissing, which, in my opinion, were fairly lax rules compared to what others might expect.
My son has no friends. He just lost his only friend after yelling at him.
Let me preface this by saying that my 11-year-old child is most likely on the spectrum, and it’s quite possible they have BPD (borderline personality disorder), though obtaining a diagnosis has been a challenging journey. Unfortunately, my son’s father, who had BPD, took his own life when my child was just a toddler. Since then, as a mom with high-functioning autism, I have been raising my son on my own. Emotional regulation has always been a struggle for him, and over the years, teachers, counselors, and I have worked tirelessly to address this issue. However, it seems to have worsened with time. Alongside emotional challenges, he also grapples with social awkwardness and anxiety.
I stood there, stunned, as my neighbor yelled at my son for playing with a stick in our own yard.
Last year, my spouse and I took the plunge and purchased a house. While we were generally pleased with our new home, there was one aspect that left us somewhat uncertain-the backyard. It was entirely enclosed by a six-foot high privacy fence, with the exception of a small section that had chain link fencing. This particular portion belonged to a couple who didn’t have any children of their own but owned dogs. I couldn’t fathom why the previous homeowners didn’t enclose that section with privacy fencing, but according to what I gathered, they wanted more natural light in their yard, so they opted for chain link instead.

"I'm in a Domestic Violence situation, but I stay for my kids"
As a mom of three under three, I'm in alot of social media groups centered around parenting and relationships. Occasionally, the topic of Domestic Violence will surface as it is a very unfortunate reality for millions of people around the world. Domestic Violence situations are made trickier when you have children with your abuser, because the abuser is often awarded custody or visitation after separating from their victim despite having abused the child's other parent. Having children with your abuser means you can never fully walk away, and if your children are minors it means that many are forced to face their abusers on a regular basis for custody exchanges. One of the most common questions I see in social media groups about Domestic Violence are from parents who have children with their abusers and feel the need to stay with the abuser for the children's benefit: either in order to maintain the lifestyle their children are accustomed to, or because they're afraid of leaving the children alone with the abuser when it's their "turn" to have the kids. So what do you do? Stay in an abusive situation to avoid losing time with your kids? Leave and face potential hardship as you start over, alone as a single parent? There's no easy answer, but one truth remains: your safety is the most important thing, and you cannot be a good parent to your children while an abusive partner wreaks havoc on your physical and mental health.
