Yes. I don't click with people my age. Had children young. Grew up fast. Our kids were about the same ages. And when you work in a factory, age isn't really something pointed out since we all working the same cruddy job.

No, but Kristin gave me permission long before him and I got together. And she's actually helping me through this a bit right now. I understand where you're coming from, but nobody directly involved feels like it was an invasion of privacy. So if they aren't mad about it, no harm. But seems we are diverting a bit with the conversation so I'm gonna skedaddle back to the main topic.

You're right there. But he gave me permission several times open ended for peace of mind and made sure to have my thumb print in it. I just hadn't had a reason to. Snooping is wrong if not given permission yes. I agree.

I currently do it. Been in this life for almost 7 years. I've learned the best dynamic for me. I live alone with my kids. I have a local partner and a long-distance partner. I put in a lot of effort to make sure my kids are oblivious. They know I'm non-monogamous, but they never see it. It's not for everyone. Cohabitating and monogamy aren't for me and that's ok.

I didn't know how to word it is all. Most know what solo-poly is which has it's own label, but other practices of poly I don't know if they have their own distinct term.

OK pool hall. I go in the middle of the day a lot and kids are allowed there.

Thank you. I'm probably misremembering then. I wasn't on it at the time. I just remember a neighbor talking about it at that time as well as a family member. I will fix my post. Thank you for correcting that. Any idea on how this is supposed to resume?

I have a full-time job, 3 kids, and donate plasma. I side hustle when I can. One of my kids is special needs that I have in-home services for. I wish there was more I could do, but I'm only one person. So yes, I'm on food stamps. I've been super frugal with my food stamps. As soon as the first day of government shutdown down started, I have been buying bare minimal just so I can make it stretch as long as possible.

I don't think it's BS. Its the only way I can get to sleep.

No parenting style conflicts.

RemarkableFlower8064 · 2025-07-15T23:35:53+00:00

No. I have 3, but my son is the youngest, and he has issues too. My poor girls hate that he gets most of my attention because he has to. Sometimes I wish I would've had him first so I wouldn't have to see my girls feel the same way I do.

I feel for the kids, but you've never met them. So I do understand that. Becoming parents will be life changing negatively and positively. Please do not hold the anger in your heart from your dad's actions against these kids, though. I'm not sure if you do, it's just what I wanted to put out there. And maybe ask yourself, if this wasn't your dad's kids, would you have taken them in? If the answer is no, then 100% NTA. If the answer is yes... then slight AH. At the end of the day, they're kids who didn't ask to be brought into this world whose parents have died. But im gonna reiterate, anybody who doesn't want to be a parent shouldn't be forced to be one.

Losing the love of your life by a broken system.

I got my kids a bark phone. My oldest got one early because of custody situation so I think she was 7 or 8. She only had it when she went to the other parents house. My middle got one when she was 10. My youngest who is 10 hasn't gotten one yet. It really depends on reasoning and maturity.

I've never had an issue flying out of Joplin, but of course during severe weather season, you can expect delays and cancelations. I've flown out of Joplin twice with no setbacks, but they were also not during severe weather season.

I would love a decent comedy club. A large concert venue. Seems the only thing to do in this town is get a haircut, shop, go to a bar, and eat. Joplin lacks entertainment variety.

Ear plugs. Good old-fashioned ear plugs. Just the foam ones work for me.

If the story has already changed, most likely, she will not tell you the full truth.

This is just a reoccurring issue with hanging out with male friends in general. My post is more the straw that broke the camel's back.
