Hey! I'm back, kinda... Not sure when I was around last, but I know it was a while ago... I just haven't been in the mood for people in general, so I've been in hiding. Everything seems to be the same, as usual... I took a trip out to Vancouver over New Years... Left the offspring with...

Bloody Santa, bloody Christians, bloody Darwinism. I was awoken at 5:30 am this morning, my child was demanding to know why Santa had'nt been......apparently "Little Bear" off Nick jr had mentioned that today was the day and she was less than impressed by his apparent no show. Anyway how come she...

I saw a Dr. Phil the other night. It was a mother they revisited who has been in therapy. Her own daughter called her a monster, due to her horrible parenting style. But there was hope and she found it. It was amazing to see mom taking time out for herself. I think doing too much makes mothers...

"Every Wednesday evening and every other weekend" Is this typical for non custodials? If I had to see my child on those terms I think I'd end up in a mental hospital. I really feel for Fathers (lets face it the majority of non custodials) who WANT their kids, but faced with a dicriminatory system...

Hey, addressed to anyone who has any thoughts (and knows my story) but I was thinking about Kate in particular as she had some advice on handling meeting with wife/ex wife. Should I introduce the idea of arranging the next visit now? I am of a mind to as I feel its safe, it gives daughter chance to...

I am working with current SAR members from both military and combat training professions in the creation of a Self Defence CD, for the integration of a Self Defence Day that will help teach children how to effectively defend themselves in a physical situation with potential abductors. My goal is...

Hi guys, Just an idea and nowt may come of it but any single parents up for doing Eurodisney or some other kid friendly holiday place over Easter or a long weekend? The advantage is we could split costs and time, any adult that wanted to wander off when it was not their shift could happily do...

USA...Guns and burglars. This made me laugh for reasons I do not understand... If I burglar is discovered in an American home and the house holder diggs out his prized gun the result is as follows. 2% of the time the burglar gets shot. 98% of the time a member of the family is accidentally shot...

Well, she's back!!! (My daughter I mean, from her trip to Sweden). She walked in the door and as soon as she saw me burst out laughing and babbling and just could not stop talking. Told me about half a dozen things mixed up in one sentence. Hugged me, kissed me and said 'Daddy I missed you so...

Just a bitter rant. Tonight I went on a binge (solo) as tomorrow my daughter is due back with her mother and I am just hoping and praying she comes back from Sweden. I think she will but I don't know. The bitter rant part is that people left because it was too hard the life we had and to try to let...

Its a relief.....the silly season is over.........childs safely back at her school........managed to ignore New Years Eve (which I hate).........Catching up with the posts, Xmas seems a pretty stressfull time for just about anybody who posted here, financial, ex partners, visitation......maybe we...

Hi are there any places that the single parents on here get together and have a chat about anything and everything? -- Col x

Had telephone call today informing me that my attempt to buy my ex-partners half of the house is going well and to plan so hopefully within a couple of weeks things will be sorted and myself and my kids will have security. Now all it will be will be affording the darn monthly payments. Anyone got...

Hi, anyone got any ideas for inexpensive hols for this year? Want to try and still give the kids a holiday this year if I can afford it. Would appreciate all help, ta. -- Col xx There's luck in sharing!!

Just a quickie (I should be so lucky! LOL). Thanks for explanation about the sig line from Kat, I was not really stressed it was just a light hearted remark. Did not realise it was her signature now but its a good one, would have been even better if it had not been me who caused it to appear....

Did you hear about the Texas teacher who was helping one of her kindergarten students put on his cowboy boots? He asked for help and she could see why. Even with her pulling and him pushing,the little boots still didn't want to go on. Finally, when the second boot was on, she had worked up a...
