Updddddaaaateeeeee ...This morning my kids father contacted me on facebook and said he wants to see the kids and talk to me today . I told him im not available today and im not comfortable seeing him . I dont know why all of a sudden he wants to visit his kids. I guess I laid a big enough guilt trip on him but I realize that I dont want to guilt him into seeing his kids .
Ok and lets not forget ppl....Im the victim in all of this. NOT HIM . He's the one who ran out on me and our kids. I didn't do anything to him . I was not like this before I met him ! I pull my weight with parenting . Im not the perfect parent and who is?! How many surburban housewives drown thier sorrows in alcohol or other sordid activities ? I dont drink or do drugs. I just have a habit of venting online because it's my sound box so to speak ..Should I be using the internet as therapy ? Probaly not but I did so because I felt I was pretty anynomous.
Also I wish you all would stop talking about my kids. My kids are FINE. They are healthy and happy kids. I dont expose them to my drama with thier dad . If you guys called CPS on me I honestly would not care because my kids are not being abused or neglected . They are clean ,fed,dress VERY well , go to school everyday and have a TON of toys . I recently put my dd in dance classes when she expressed an interest in wanting to be a ballerina . I may be just "going through the motions" because Im depressed but Im not a mental case. I know right from wrong . I know not to ever take my frustration with my life out on my kids. If they were being neglected thier schools would not hesitate to call the authorities. Im actually pretty close to my son's teacher and she knows Im depressed. It's not my fault that Im depressed . I cant control that.
No you are not even remotely a victim in this situation. Your kids are the victims of all this. You were an abuser and the man you abused left you, which was the right thing for him to do. He did not victimize you. He apparently also left your children, which was not the right thing to do - he should have fought for them. There's no telling why he did that to them but sadly parents do that every day. It's nothing new and what's done is done. You need to stop sitting around feeling sorry for yourself. Plenty of people get left by their significant others and they get past it - they don't spend the rest of their disfunctional lives playing the victim and sleeping their days away. Sometimes they get through it on their own and sometimes they need professional help to do it, but people get through breakups every day and there's no reason you couldn't also if you wanted to. From your posts you seem to be far more concerned about finding another man - or getting the old one back - than about being a healthy, functional parent for your children and those children deserve better than that. Pull yourself together, follow your doctors' advice and be the parent your kids need. If you can't do that then you need to turn them over to someone who is willing to put the kids' needs above their own.
