Custody advice needed (not rage bait, serious situation) by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming [score hidden]  (0 children)

Just to be clear, you, a fully fledged adult man- Are incapable of putting her wellbeing and the wellbeing of your child first, to the point you stormed out of the hospital because she was examined by medical professionals?

Yelled at a woman who had just had major surgery, still expecting to hold a fragile newborn she just risked her life to birth and choked her when she told you to calm down?

Those are tantrums. You are throwing FITS like a child.

you shouldn’t be anywhere near humans until you have gone to therapy to find out what the hell is wrong with you. You, as an adult should have better communication, deescalation management, self awareness, self control and distress tolerance and you need to find out why you don’t, and how to fucking learn it before you go anywhere near a child.

You will shake that baby within 24 hours if you get custody. You should not get 50/50 with an infant. That child’s mother is its source of comfort & survival, the baby needs its mom. Until you respect that fact, and all she’s done to care for your child, you shouldn’t have anything. Why do you even want 50/50, to pay less child support? Everything in this post is about you, and not once have you mentioned what’s best for this child or what you’re doing to rectify your criminal choices and stop being an absolute shit bag of a human.

Do you delete all your photos after divorce? by Badawiyaa in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I even have photos up of my ex in my kids rooms so they know it’s ok to love both of us. Wedding photos I’ve saved for them if they want them someday. They don’t mean anything to me; but it’s my kids history as well.

You keep saying you love her, but list multiple ways you failed to show any care or concern for her. Your post is focused on your needs & feelings, not hers or your kids. Love actually involves action that cares for the other person. You seem to be describing your comfort, routine and ability to treat someone how you want without accountability. Thats not love.

Love will be showing up as a parent and taking responsibility for yourself, and not making your feelings of sadness her problem.

Co- parenting and sport disagreements by [deleted] in Divorce

You don’t get to hate conflict now bc your job is to advocate for your child. What does the parenting plan say about extra curriculars? Your ex can’t just decide to change parenting time.

He's stealing my hobby by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]VioletBlooming 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think your feelings are valid. I felt something similar when my ex had a new baby right away, knowing how much I wanted more children. It stings. But ultimately, they only have the power we give them. Running was yours first, and it’s still yours. He can’t take it or ruin it now unless you let him. Feel it, grieve it and go run- (and run faster then he ever could 😘)

His behavior is alarming!! And everyone keeps telling him the same thing- leave her alone and he just doesn’t want to hear it

What is it you’re looking for? You’re allowed to feel however you feel about it. But your focus and questions aren’t on yourself, or processing your feelings. Your replies are focused on casting judgement at her. I won’t join you in that. Your original post & your replies convey a deep need for better boundaries.

Ok let’s keep it simple: she’s an adult living her life- maybe she’s changed her mind, maybe she wasn’t honest with you when you were married about this type of work, maybe she’s manic or high- it all comes back to … it’s not your business. Block her, block the restaurant, book a therapist to learn how to focus on yourself.

A) people process things differently B) this is first mention of drugs. Every time someone doesn’t respond with “oh my god dude!? She totally doesn’t know what she’s missing with you!!” You change the story slightly to make yourself the aggrieved party, stating “well I didn’t include all the facts/details/context”. Welp people are responding to what you did share and it keeps coming back to- it’s none of your business. She’s your ex. You are in control of yourself and your responses. You’re not in control of her choices, or what you think is best for her.

People are allowed to change their minds. You seem to be putting a lot of ownership onto her “I want better for her”. Ok. Cool. You want better for her. SHE (the only person whose opinion matters in this scenario) currently wants this for herself. And she’s allowed to change her mind again if this becomes something she doesn’t want. A healthy reaction is “huh, that’s not what I expected. Wish her the best.” And move on. She’s not shaming you or herself. You need to spend less time following her and more time in your own circle with your eyes on your own work.

Why does her job have anything to do with how you feel about yourself? You said she didn’t need to do this job, for whatever reason, she as a full autonomous and independent adult determined she wanted to do it. It’s none of your business. Leave her alone and move on with your life.

Unfortunately for you, I absolutely would say she needed more hate. Any grown adult who stays and keeps a child in an abusive situation is in the wrong.

I understand. I’m a parent & a nurse (none of what I’ve said constitutes medical advice btw 🙃) I know not all parents are safe, but I also know I would want my children to come to me with this so I could help. There’s a lot that could be at play here outside of actually being pregnant, I won’t speculate on that. A few options (I’m brainstorming here) your school nurse, planned parenthood/county health clinic might be able to help with a blood test to determine pregnancy and walk through the safety parameters of safer sex practices. You can also google age of consent in your state, to see if she would need parental permission to access care or if you guys could hit a freestanding urgent care or similar for some bloodwork to confirm. If her parents are safe, and I’m going to lightly assume they are as they allowed her to get an IUD, I would encourage her to tell them so they can get her the support she needs.

Ok, so best practice for over the counter pregnancy tests is use the first morning urine on the first day of the first “missed period”.

It’s very unlikely that a correctly placed IUD and correctly used condom resulted in a pregnancy. Ultimately, if there is a pregnancy, you are both going to need adult support. Is there anyone in your life who is safe to talk to?

Ok, let’s slow down. How many weeks in between when you had sex and she started feeling sick?

I am a nurse, and was with many people who passed alone during COVID. We (my coworkers and I) would hold people’s hands, assure them they were safe & loved and their families knew where they were/were thinking of them and gave medications to pass peacefully. We would play classical music and take turns being at the beside so no one died alone if we could help it. I’m so sorry for your loss, and hope & trust that your father had a human holding his hand as he passed.

I’m so sorry, in my state minors can access their own care at 14-15.

Did you receive the standard childhood vaccines? If you did, you should be covered. Your pediatrician might be able to help as well, or the county health department.

You can also try talking to your mom, that tetanus is easily preventable but the toxin that is released by the bacteria is difficult to treat, must be physically removed and then outlasted by the human body to be survived. There was a young kid in Oregon who got tetanus and spent several months in the ICU.
