So I need advice. My mom's birthday is today and I haven't talked to her in months. She one of the most difficult people to deal with. I'm wondering of I should go see her or just opt out? And if I do go I don't want to go by myself, I'm trying to get my SO to go but he doesn't want to go either. What should I or can I do?
@masseymomma16 yeah but I just hate going by myself. Like I feel like my SO should definitely go with me to support me. Like I know she makes him uncomfortable but I like I feel the same. Is it so wrong that I want him to go with me?
Just go. My thinking is one day she won’t be here for you to contemplate on going to see her or not. And you may one day regret not going when you could have. When you get there just say “I can’t stay long but I wanted to come wish you a happy birthday” if things get bad say it’s time to go!
@queenmeeks @momof3cuties yes she just doesn't care. I wish she did cause I'd like to be close with her but she makes it so hard
I wouldn’t go if the energy is that bad between y’all. I would maybe call her and tell her happy birthday if it isn’t too much of a hassle to get through that and if it is, I would send her a text.
Does she know and understand why y’all aren’t speaking?
@qwiona does she know why your upset at her? If not maybe tell her. I wouldn't just not talk to her. If something happens to her you will have to live with forever
Go visit her. If things go south just say you have to go and leave.
Maybe just shoot her a text or call her and wish her happy birthday. If you don’t want to go, don’t. Don’t force yourself to do something you don’t want to do or that you’re uncomfortable with. If she makes it an issue or talks crap, ignore it.
@momof3cuties it's not my sister that's the problem. It's my mom
If your not comfortable don't go. Maybe go tomorrow when it's just her. I won't go see my mom of I k ow my sister is there and if I see she is at a store I go later..lol
@penelope127 it is. In all honesty, I'd rather just avoid the whole thing, but my conscience makes me feel bad.
@qwiona, sounds like it’s uncomfortable if you go too. 🤷🏼♀️
@penelope127 I wish it were that easy. My sister is going and I'm gonna get the 3rd degree as to why I didn't go AND she's gonna talk crap
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...
@qwiona, no not wrong at all. He could help you get out of a bad situation, if it occurs. My husband and I have code words and signals! I would tell him how much more comfortable you’d feel and set a plan. Sounds kinda silly but it helps!
