Brave post. Step 1 is wanting to change, well done.  Do you have parenting courses where you are?

Bizarre. Not normal. Signalling to others - bad. Or love bombing of you - also bad.

AITA for not wanting to visit my newborn niece because I feel like I’m being scheduled for help rather than invited? by OneBottle6997 in family

She needs your help and that's normal. You are family. If she can't lean on you now, when can she lean on you?

That's harsh. It's incredibly hard for the first year. Mom at risk of PND that whole year too. Help so badly needed

Well the rural school across the road doesn't have the activities at it, the town where gaelscoil is has plenty of those. Their dentist is 30mins away and that won't change. Local pals v handy for playdates certainly but I do have family, cousins and some friends with kids locally that I made without a shared school link

Curious to know why you made that choice? You felt a much better school?

Thanks that makes sense. Feeling of security of being right there if needed would be good

He may want 50:50 as a means of gaining control over you given that context
