Let me explain more- kind of long winded - sorry!

Posted By: anon on 2009-06-02
In Reply to: take a look around the - corner of time

Four different times since my daughter got married and left home, she has called crying and with no questions asked, I immediately told her come home and she did. Then, within days, my carpets were ruined with the sippy cups and the food, my furniture was ruined, there were dirty diapers laying around everywhere, the kids would come to me when they were hungry and thirsty, and she would be on the phone or watching TV or taking a nap. She never helped with the food or the bills during those times, and she would only decide to leave when she would get a boyfriend and need her privacy and I would not allow them to stay overnight at my home.

My son has been in and out of my house since he was 16 years old. The whole time he was telling me I was trash, to stay out of his business, that I could not tell him what to do, that he did not have to listen to me, that he did not have to get a job, nobody was going to make him get a job. There were times when I was physically afraid of him and would end up calling the police. One time the police took him to jail because they said they were tired of coming out to talk to him. After 4 days he did not call and say I am sorry mom, will you please come get me, he called and his only words to me were "Are you just going to leave me here" - again after telling me he hated me and not even letting me visit him during visitation when I tried to. One time he decided he was going to kill himself and at the hospital he had the police escort me out because he hated me and did not want to see me. He spent the day in bed at the hospital with the little girl that he was wanting to see (and was going to kill himself becuase I would not let her come to the houe that day). Five days later when they released him from the kids psych hospital and said he was just looking for attention, he told me not to come get him because he hated me and never wanted to see me again. Then, when nobody else would go pick him up, including his father, then he called me back and told me that I HAD to come get him and that I HAD no choice -- and guess what? I did.

The things I told you in my first post are just the tip of the iceberg as far as I am concerned. And yes, when I say I would be suicidal, I am not exaggerating. I have bent over backwards to help both my children and never received so much as a happy mother's day phone call in 19 years from my son - and not much more appreciation from my daughter.

Now tell me, how much do you think they are going to be there to help me when I am old anyway? And what at this point does it matter?

What would you do? Kind of long sm
My 16 year old daughter was diagnosed with ADD quite a while ago. We put her on medicine but it made her loose a tremendous amount of weight so we took her off and tried everything under the sun to help with her grades (tutoring, cyber school, wrap around, etc). Fast forward a few years, we asked for her to be put back on it before she went back to public school. She still struggles tremendously with her school work but refuses to take the medicine even though she says she thinks it helps her. Same with the medicine that the neurologist gave her for migraines. It makes her feel better but she won't take it. I get calls all the time from the school nurse that she is in her office but I have finally gotten to the point where when the nurse calls, I tell her to have her rest for about 5 minutes and then send her back to class unless she is throwing up or is definitely sick. I'm at my wits end! She is constantly trying to duck out of school or her school work. Any suggestions?
I need help with my dog - it's kind of long --

I do not know what to do.  I got my new puppy a couple of months ago and things have been wonderful.  She is so loving and outgoing and constantly wanting to be held and played with... lots of energy and playfulness.  Until...


A couple of days ago my grown son came to stay with us (first time he had been here since we had the puppy).  She immediately started barking at him and would not stop.  She ran and hid from him in another room.  Now, it has been 5 days and she is no better.  She barks and growls any time he enters the room.  She is withdrawing from all of us and hiding under the desk and behind furniture, will not come to even myself or my husband (and before she would not let us leave the room without following us and being with us).  She is not eating, she is not drinking.


Just now, I tried to put her in her crate for the night and she would jump from my arms and run.  I went after her and she cowered down in the corner like I was going to hurt her (which I have never done).  I tried a second time to put her in the crate and the same thing happened.  I moved the crate to another room (it had been in the living room, where my son is staying on the couch) and now I was able to put her in it.  The thing is, he is not home now so the living room was empty anyway.  At this point, she will not even walk into the living room if we are in there calling her.  She is jumpy at any little noise and runs and hides.


What could have happened?  She was at the vet for a week at first with parvo, but she seemed okay after that.  Then week before last, she went for her second set of shots, and she seemed okay for the first few days, but that is when my son came, and now I don't know what to do.  


The drinkin kind or the rubbin kind?? sm
So....is that for me to drink so I don't notice or care that my hands are all splotchy black or to get the ink off?    Seriously though, do I use the rubbing alcohol - or like Jack Daniels??  and do I soak in it or what?  I never heard of using alcohol but I'll try anything. 
Depends if it is long with pregnant pause um no. If it is long and juicy like an op YEP! Short ones

I had it during my pregnancy a long, long time ago. Husband

How long is too long to wait for Pap results?
This is a follow up Pap for an abnormal one a few months back.  I have waited for the results for over a month and have called the office once.  Any advised about being a patient patient - LOL.  Its hard when your in this business, I think anyway, not to be more aggressive about stuff like this.
I feel that is best too. I have been kind, very kind, to this ...sm
child since he moved here in March. I also am not one of those parent's that thinks my children are perfect. You never know what they might do out of your presence. I do know how I have raised them though and I am all for getting them all together when there is a problem and getting to the bottom of it but anymore that doesn't seem to work. The parents automatically get defensive and start making excuses, etc. I'm going to look for somewhere else to move. I've lived here for 2-1/2 years and we never had a problem until this boy moved in. His mother is a piece of work.
I know, and if you try to explain this to the MT,
you are met with nothing but hostility..........You're not alone!
No need to explain yourself...
anyone who has kids (of ANY age) understands completely.  God bless!
Sorry I don’t get it, explain.
NM
Explain, please.

This might help explain it
I've never had one, but this link takes you to a pretty good Q & A about it. It doesn't sound like a very bad/painful procedure. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Did you explain all of this to your son?
x
Perhaps did not explain sm
We have youth programs where a member of the department will come and talk to kids about the dangers of the internet. You know they never listen to parents, and you don't want the fact that you went in there yourself to come up. Some parents visit these porn sites regularly, not saying anyone here, but then they don't realize the kids can log on and get in there easily once they're in there if only by mistake or by surfing the web and being directed there. Perhaps some don't know the horrible crimes that come out of youths being lured by porn and the sooner it's dealt with, the better. I don't mean to have the police come in uniform with sirens and lights blaring. There are simple solutions to this problem and I am all for putting away these slime balls, some of them are judges, ministers, etc., so-called trustworthy people hurting our youths. Perhaps I misspoke but you may have read more into it. It's a common problem we all share and it could end up with a dead or kidnapped kid. I'd rather get tough early and save a life. Overreacted, maybe! I would never roll on the floor laughing about it but then again, we're all different.
You will have to explain
...how if I "get some of it" (what does that even mean?) -- If I have sex I will be more likely to abandon my principles?

If this is what you mean, it demeans you to suggest so; that in the absence of anything more intelligent, this is the best you can come up with. I think it speaks volumes about whom I am dealing with.

Like I said, I don't intend to start a revolution, all I need to do is be true to what the data show as well as to what I can see with my own eyes when watching a video of an infant getting circumcised.

It is already a movement, with numbers of infants being circumcised in the U.S. declining & more. This makes me happy. So no, I'm not starting a revolution. I'm simply doing my part to help this already existing movement along. It's all any of us can do, stay true to our convictions & have intelligent debate, & hopefully not stoop to suggest that someone "getting some" will make them see things your way.
Can anyone explain why
There are so many children being kidnapped. I understand about occults, drugged out parents selling kids for drugs and a whole myriad of other issues, but why is this happening now.

These cute sweet innocent kids are being slaughtered, yet garbage is allowed to roam the streets. I saw on Glenn Beck yesterday about some guys dog who was murdered and one guy is in jail while 3 others are still out roaming around. What is happening to our nation. Is there something in the air that is turning these people into animals.
Could somebody please explain?
I signed up for Twitter and signed up for some news feed things, thinking that I would then start getting text messages of news updates and/or links to news stories. So far (several weeks later) I have gotten NOTHING, NADA, ZIP except a couple Twitter friend requests from obvious spammers.

What exactly IS Twitter? How is it supposed to work?

Signed,
Clueless Facebook User who DID manage to get Facebook up and running but doesn't quite *get* the attraction of it all... LOL!
Well that may explain some things...
A friend of mine had a tummy tuck also and is now gaining weight in areas she never had problems with before. She was told that since along with the belly fat many fat cells were also removed the fat has to go somewhere and goes to those other areas. Honestly, I'd rather it be equally distributed if it were me. Now she has a flat *stomach* but above and below the tuck area are bulges as well as her butt and legs are getting extremely big. I hope this is not the case for you. It seems that once you have it done you basically cannot gain weight or this can happen. She is now sorry she had it done :(
How do you explain the difference between...
a republican and a democrat to a teenager?

Can you explain the sentence
I've be typing from home for a long time?
Explain my sentence...
I've typed from home since my 12-year-old was 2.  Most of the time, he was right next to me.  Then along came another.  My hubby and I split days.  He worked part-time and I worked part-time.  We felt it better to not have the income and keep the children at home with us.  My kids are 5 years apart.  My son started school 1/2 day, so my working at home was great.  Now, they are 12 and 7.  I work at home full-time now and my hubby works full-time at his job.  I am here for them, but they are in school all day.  I am strictly an IC, so I adjust for whatever I need.  I do not need the benefits, hubby has those.  I do watch my children, but I have typed at home for 10 years now, and nothing too dramatic has suffered.  Did I put my 7-year-old in preschool?  Yes, I did.  Did I have to jump up and down a lot?  Yes, I did.  Do I regret any minute of it?  No, I do not. 
Not that I feel I have to explain anything

but they are the same age, almost 18.


You are right. I'm just curious. It would explain a lot.
xx
and now you *will explain slowly*???? sm

Now this post you just made is incredibly condescending - *explaining slowly* - as if we are the village idiots.....please leave this thread - you already took this thread down to your level of denigration....and now it's time for you to GET_OVER_YOURSELF....


 


I don't feel I need to explain myself to you
I was simply voicing my opinion. Geesh, I'm glad you're not my neighbor.
Explain Bunco please sm
I do not know what a Bunco party is, no clue. From what I can figure out, someone asked you to pain other peoples' toenails. That would be very insulting to me. Perhaps I am misreading something here. My experience with other females has been negative socially. There are not that many "true friends" out there, just a bunch of back-biting b------s in my town. I had someone call me yesterday just to clearly gossip. When I didn't "bite" she kept asking me if I had heard from X, Y or Z and when I didn't have anything negative to say, she sounded disappointed. I refuse to gossip, it's a downgrading, vicious habit that I refuse to get into. I consider myself a professional and refuse to do anything less. Painting toenails would be a total turnoff to me, a kick in the teath really. Then again, I don't know what a Bunco party is, perhaps it's a grooming party. No idea, so can't comment, just can relate to the back-stabbing behavior. It's something in the water around here anyway and I refuse to partake of it.
I wish I could explain this campus to you...
It is an old town with the NIU campus at the heart. The main buildings are located near a lagoon, where the whole community can ice skate and feed the ducks in the warm weather. Classes can be held in large lecture halls, while others can be held in individual buildings located within walking distance. It is not like a big high school where you can monitor the doors and have a big xray machine when everyone walks in. It is spread out over a huge area, like a small town in itself with multiple buildings. I was there today, and there are old buildings and new multiclassroom buildings and just a mixture of traditional and new structures. I just dont see how the security could be much better than it is...

Hard to explain. So sad.
Hey moderator -- please help us out here, explain to


Okay, let me try to explain this one more time

The reason the moderator bans correcting someone's grammar/spelling, etc., is because it is RUDE!  You were rude to correct this woman's grammar.  I did not correct your grammar; however, I did point out that you are not perfect either.  Given the situation, you were rude.  You can complain about it all you want, and most would agree that incorrect speech is annoying, but I don't see anyone agreeing with you that it was correct to point out the woman's mistakes to her. 


I find it very difficult to believe that the moderator is going to ban anyone for doing exactly what you did to that woman.  Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me. 


Sometimes it is necessary to explain what you expect
Sometimes it is necessary to explain what you expect. Maybe he will or cannot fulfill all your expectations. But maybe he'll learn and also, maybe, you will learn that all your expectation might not be fulfilled.

Working at marriage, can you explain?
I read these posts and I told my DH yesterday we were going to have to work at marriage and he wanted to know what?? I am asking the same of the readers here. I am in my 60s, 10 years older than my hubby and we have been married for 6 years now (previous husband deceased). I am so in love with this fellow, probably for the first time in my life and he with me. I adore the ground he walks on and just think he is the best thing since popcorn. I work at my transcription job but I don't get this about marriage having to be worked at. I have grown children. This is his first marriage and he has no children. He is a hard worker as am I and we do not fight, ever. There have been absolutely no big spats at all, none. He takes the big debt and I have the smaller. We have separate checking accounts and that is fine with me but if need be we are both on each other accounts.  If I want to go to dinner, the show, to visit someone, no problem and the same with him. He was our (late DH and my) friend for over 30 years and I think possibly by being his friend first of all, he is now the best hubby I could ever hope for. I never in all those years even knew he noticed me, quiet, shy, reserved, barely holding conversation with me, mostly he and the other DH. There is nothing I would not do for this man. I want to hear from others about working at marriage because I am just not understanding. Probably some of you are saying this seems impossible but I am living my dream like I never imaged I could have.
I wish all physicians would explain to patients..
that although they are prescribing a medication which is primarily prescribed for XYZ, that is has also been found helpful in treating ABC.  A friend of mine who had recent rotator cuff surgery was given a new script by his pain clinic physician for a chief complaint of increased pain.  My friend looked up the medication on the internet, only to find that it was prescribed for depression.  He was under the impression he was given a pain medication prescription.  Needless to say, he expressed his displeasure to the physician regarding this and as a result, has lost trust in him and has left his practice.
OK, I'll try to explain the ick-factor...
He's creepy...always has nude women on his show, degrades females in general, and just plain perverted.  Makes my skin crawl, seriously.  He makes Howard K look like an angel, IMHO...that to me is icky...
I LOVE GG and will try to explain what happened...
I'll try to explain what happened last night. Lorelai got drunk and sang a karoake song - I will always love you - to Rory, but Luke walked in and she started singing the song to him. It was so adorable that I actually cried :) Every word of the song was a perfect fit to their relationship! Anyway, Lane's husband got a lead guitar gig with some band and is going on tour for 2 months with them. She was going to go with him and bring the twins, but realized it would be too hard. Luke and April had to cancel their boat trip because April got in to some fancy science summer camp. Rory had a breakdown after getting another rejection letter from another newspaper job and thinks she will never get a job. Then at the end, Logan asked Lorelai's permission to ask Rory to marry him. It ended with him asking that, she (Lorelei) was just staring at him with her mouth open. I think that about raps it up.
We all have opinions...you don't have to explain yourself to the world (sm)
I'm sorry you are getting bashed. I did disagree with the decision, and I kind of thought you would end up regretting it. But you did involve her in the decision. If one of my kids was asking me to just go ahead and let them take the paddling, I might agree to it. You're fine. When we are on here it is so easy just to spout of our opinions - me included. But if we were all sitting face to face in an office working together talking about it, it would not be nearly as offensive. When things are in writing they seem so much more harsh. Don't be too hard on yourself.
It was hard to explain to my 7 year old
He adores Zoey 101. She is like a dream to him. He knows about having babies, but he does not know why she would at her age. He is so disappointed this happened to her. He does not know why or how yet, but he knows that he might never see her on the show again. It was sad as I watched this and saw his sadness.
Too bad this young lady did not have enough self-esteem to tell the guy "no." Or to even know that this is not good for a young girl, etc. Where's the parents and the morals. Maybe I am a dinosaur, but I was taught kids play even at 16 or whatever you may have crushes, but in my day a kiss was a big deal. Now kids are having kids (though this has happened through the ages), but someone able to be on TV and the movies would have a better education about saying no, and or at the very least birth control. As it is my 7 year old is confused, what does this mean for 16 year old girls who say no to guys and then this happens, they must be confused.
Sorry if I sound antiquated. I guess I should have grown up in a different time period.
Explain the huge difference please. (sm)
Is it between alcohol and pot, crack and mushrooms, crank and LSD? Please, explain to me the huge difference. To me, all drugs are drugs, but maybe some are more preferential to you.
Please explain "too busy"?...nm

Please explain how the OP is abusing this child? Do...

you know something we don't know? How have you come to that conclusion? Perhaps you need a job to keep you busy and not try to control the lives of others. You sound like a control freak....


Yes, but I never explain myself. ALL my friends are MTs. Talk about not getting out much...nm

write him a letter and explain to him like you
explained it to us. Tell him how you really feel. Give him some days to 'digest' it, then give him a call.
If you have definitely made up your mind, you have to tell him before he gets out, otherwise I doubt that you will be able to tell him face to face and you will just give in.
I'm not a Bible scholar, but I can try to explain what Matthew was saying...
He wasn't saying that everyone who goes to synagogues are hypocrites. In his time, he was saying that there are some people who went to synagogues who were hypocrites.
Matthew's Gospel is written for a Jewish audience, or maybe I should say, from the perspective of a Jew speaking to other Jews. He is describing a situation that we still see today, people who proclaim themselves religious and call attention to themselves, but don't really live faith. In this particular verse, he describes something that his audience would be familiar with. They were Jews and they went to synagogues. They most certainly would have known people who called attention to themselves and proclaimed that they were righteous. Meanwhile, they really didn't live righteous lives.
Today we know that scenario can refer just as easily to someone who sits in the front pew at a church on Sunday, but then spends the rest of the week being evil to his fellow human beings. We also know of people who proclaim Islam, but carry out terrorist acts.
The Bible was written thousands of years ago, of course. So we have to try to think of it from that perspective, and then carry the lessons forward into the present time.
Does that make it as clear as mud? :) Like I said, I'm not a Bible scholar, but I did want to try to explain it so that you wouldn't think there was a hateful agenda hidden in the verse.
Somebody explain this Anna Nicole's mother doing what I have just seen
At the funeral her mother spread dirt/concrete whatever over her daughter's grave, looked like she was pulling it from the bed of a truck but then she walked on the grave?? What in the world was that all about? Anyone have any other information on that - I missed the whole story. Thanks.
I don’t explain anythng, just thought the book
"IF" I did it was just a ploy to make some money, nothing else. Cannot imagine anyone saying they were forced to watch the trial. People who say this probably never watched and if so, was of their own choice. So much others you could watch if you wanted to. I know for a fact the newspapers and television extremely biased in that case, the papers not even close to what I was watching every day.
Well I guess that would explain the rotten egg smell!
LOL, we always got a laugh about the fact it smelled like rotten eggs. A Jersey girl here too. Cute story though.
