I ask for no super negative comments please. These are just a few of my thoughts the last couple of days. I was molested as a child by my father. By middle school/junior high I got a restraining order against him. I haven't really associated with him since. The few times I did were for weddings, funerals, or to please my older brother. While I had forgiven him for everything I couldn't let the anger go. No matter what I tried it never went away. One of my sisters lived a harder life than I did (I was adopted). She asked if she should contact our mother (who had more problems than I can name and really screwed hey over) and get father (did the same as mine) and telling them she forgave them. I told her no because she's not in a place where she can handle any consequences from it. But it left me thinking maybe that might help me. So I went for it. I contacted my father on Facebook and told him what I went through because of his actions, that I could never trust him again and he wouldn't be in my family's life. But that I forgave him. It helped me so much! It reminded me of the times when he was a great dad. I had forgotten or forced the memories away. While I don't want him to have a father/daughter relationship with him I want to talk every now and then, like a pen-pal . A decent sized part of me still wants to be accepted by my father. How crazy I must be to feel this way.
You do what you feel is right no judgement
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
