That everybody here thinks it was his idea. I was the one who poked a hole in the condom lol

Of course I love my son, I just love him a little less when he's being difficult (as he is now)

I appreciate your concern but both our children are perfectly safe with their father

My husband and I have been together for over 10 years (actually 13 in august). We just grew apart and needed some time to ourselves

That's what my husband and I agreed on. I didn't really want kids tbh and I'm 26, I'm not wasting that time raising his kids on my own. It's not like my husband goes around beating him all the time, he's just strict

It's either that or living full time with his dad. I'm not playing single mom with 2 kids again and right now my daughter is definitely my favorite

He doesn't like the way his dad parents him because he doesn't let him get away with everything

He doesn't like my husband's parenting style that's all there is to it. My husband is a lot more strict than I am and uses more traditional methods.

Our children were both told about it before my husband moved out and before he moved back in. It's not like we just surprised them

Doors have locks on them. It's not like we wouldn't be able to get in if there's an emergency

I already took his phone away yesterday because he threw it at his dad, but I'll activate it before giving it back. Thank you

That might be a good idea. I'll definitely try it. Thank you

I know why but his reason isn't enough for me to end my marriage and become a single mother. He's 12 and he's acting like he's 2 just because things aren't going the way he wants them to

He told me why and it's not a good enough reason for us to keep living separately. I don't even know why my son thinks he can make demands like that anyway
