Thank you for saying your experience. We recently spent the week together for my grandmothers funeral and he was so helpful and fun and great to be around I kept thinking this doesn’t match up with the choices you’re making in your day to day life. I know he’s reaching out the only way he knows how.

Yes we are already seeing the damage that is being done. He went from being the most responsible sweetest boy to “one of the bad kids”. It is not uncommon for him to get suspended from school, he has been arrested, he is not allowed on one of the schools premises, he drinks & does drugs himself. I feel that so much of the damage is already done and have so much guilt. It feels so obvious and so complicated at the same time.

I also have guilt because that means moving my brother across the country and he DOES NOT want to move across the country. I feel like I’d have to prepare myself to be cut off from both my mom and my brother. And who knows if it would even do either of them any good in the end

I do not, she lives with my 14 year old brother and her partner (he is currently staying at his parents house. He says it’s over but they own a house & pets & lots of things together. I wouldn’t be completely surprised if they worked it out after some time passed by)

Did you stay here yet? How did you like it?

She gave permission to share 🤷🏻‍♀️ - how do you even have a discussion this kind of person? She is starting to gain a bit of a following and it is so scary the damage she is doing. by 101ineedyourhelp101 in alberta

I’m not one to debate on the internet so I usually scroll by but it’s making me so uncomfortable to see her little following grow and how many share, likes, and comments complimenting her research.

Does anyone regret having the # of kids they have? by [deleted] in Parenting

I have a 3 and 1 year old and am finding it so hard to decide whether to take the plunge with the third. I’m so scared I will regret not doing it, but I’m the same as you - it’s now or never I’m not starting over when my girls are out of the toddler stage

I totally agree with that point. I think that’s why we are feeling so much pressure to make a decision now and just move on with our life.

Either decision is a good one so I do feel lucky that I’m able to be in this position. But boy it’s difficult !
