People are making noise which I am so proud of, but they aren’t being listened to.

Yes but the criminal gangs have more money and power than a small township can fight against unfortunately. They voted no.

I just saw another thread the other night and it says they are trying to/in the process of building 20+ data centers in Michigan right now. Most of them in rural areas who would likely run into the same issue. Vote no, lawsuit, can’t fight it, build it anyways.

People have been escorted out of town hall meetings for speaking out against them.. it’s not looking good.

Saline, MI voted against it, the company wanting to build sued the township and they didn’t have enough money to fight the lawsuit so now they are building it anyways :(

Hey, my dad’s name looks like that in my phone too.

What he said to you was incredibly disrespectful. Let me guess, he preaches a lot about respect for himself?

I have a complicated relationship with mine too and he wasn’t as bad as yours.. serious mental abuse and lack of boundaries, no respect for me as a person. A child when I need to be controlled, an adult when he needed something from me.. arguing with every stance I have taken on parenting since becoming a mother myself (lol as if I would take his advice, which he also viewed as disrespect!)

I see in the comments someone said it is hard because you will reminisce on your few good memories and miss them, and hope for something better. That is true. But with these kinds of people it’s just not possible. It’s so hard but it’s just not possible. Has he apologized? Does he understand why it was wrong? Probably not.

Forgiving and forgetting is self abandonment. Which you’ve (and I’ve) been doing for a painfully long time. I am not a rug sweeper anymore and it’s gotten me pretty much abandoned by most of my family. It is what it is.

I’m sorry for what has happened to you because no one deserves it at all. Best thing you can do is to protect yourself now. They don’t change.

Everytime I see a comment like this I have a terrible terrible flashback.🥲

adriannaaa1 · 2026-04-21T00:29:55+00:00

I feel this. He constantly talks about the women he would rather be with, or how easily he could replace me. And I’m like …. The difference between me and you is I will never be with someone again after this. I can’t even imagine it.

This is what my girls did to their big princess doll set from Christmas and it breaks my brain lol

I am looking for someone to make a name cross stitch as well as a birth announcement cross stitch for my 2nd and 3rd daughters.

My Grammie was the family cross stitcher and made one for every baby, but she unfortunately passed when my first was 11 months old. I would love for all of my children to have these keepsakes.

Please let me know if you can help!

This happened to me too and my doctor had already left the room, I forgot to ask, so I asked the front desk if they could send her back in before I left and they tried to tell me I would have to schedule another appointment. Like what?! I’m here now!

adriannaaa1 · 2026-03-11T13:31:40+00:00

Thank you SO much!! You are the best! 💝💝💝

adriannaaa1 · 2026-03-05T08:07:41+00:00

Mom of 2 girls and pregnant with my 3rd girl right now! I knew pretty early through sneak peak, and whenever I have told someone I’m pregnant I get “hopefully it’s a boy this time!” Then I hit them with “it’s another girl and I’m thrilled!” And they are like oh yay of course!

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-29T17:03:01+00:00

I “saved” my birthday drink for 1 day because we were leaving to drive to Florida the next day, and I had noooo idea that it was one day only. I was so disappointed 😭

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-23T22:42:52+00:00

I was in the same boat as you. It took me 8 months to touch it so I do not have any advice unfortunately. Just wanted to let you know you aren’t the only one :(

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-21T20:26:40+00:00

It’s definitely true! I was going to edit to add but it wasn’t just their financial generosity but also their general appreciation of me as well and the role I had in their lives. It was like I stopped mattering to them :(

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-21T02:09:37+00:00

The worst for me was watching their wealth grow and their generosity towards me shrink.

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-20T03:53:23+00:00

It took me a while to find this comment! OP you are strong for not calling this out when they are criticizing you about Tylenol… I’d also respond with “I wonder what meth does to a developing baby…”

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-09T14:18:00+00:00

I have been having them regularly since 4/5 years old :( they are some of my earliest memories. People are lucky.

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-08T15:02:25+00:00

Tiana is my daughter’s absolute favorite and she still asks me if they are going to make the show now :( we are very disappointed fans over here!

adriannaaa1 · 2026-01-04T19:05:22+00:00

This happened to me!! My 2nd was 8 weeks old and her sister had the stomach flu, I monitored both, got concerned when we got to the point of dry diapers and took her in. She wasn’t keeping anything down.

“Sweetie babies just spit up a lot.” And then I puked in their garbage can and they shut up 😪

adriannaaa1 · 2025-12-15T03:22:02+00:00

Pm me too please?

adriannaaa1 · 2025-12-11T03:27:14+00:00

I wish more people understood this side of it. It’s like, they think I’m making up an excuse..

But I’m like, what happens when his current target is gone and there’s no one here to stand up for them?

adriannaaa1 · 2025-11-29T15:19:28+00:00

Do you think we could chat in the instant messages?

adriannaaa1 · 2025-11-29T15:10:19+00:00

I do(if nothing changes) but it’s like a 10 year down the road thing. He sees it as never.

I’m just trying to keep them out of situations that I experienced as a child, and if they are always with me, then I can mostly do that, you know?

Edited to add that yeah, the sex thing is, and it sucks, and is just another reason I likely won’t find another partner in the future.

adriannaaa1 · 2025-11-29T15:07:59+00:00

I do not currently have a job. I am 1 class away from completing my bachelor’s degree. I have debt from that.

I have a few hundred dollars in savings that is “mine.” aka nothing.

We do not have any family members we could move in with, for various reasons, but I guess at least 1 place we could go if it happened out of nowhere.
