I posted what I have because I think it's something that you needed to hear. Not because I don't like you or do like you thats irrevelent. TBH i've never met you IRL and only know you as LMS and as LMS I see post after post with the same themes and time after time people saying the same thing. Whether it was you or anyone else I would have said the same thing.
TBH I don't really care if you like what I said or not. You wanted suggestions and thats what I did. I don't feel there is any point in dancing around the situation, who is that going to help? At the end of the day, it's your choice. You need to be the one to decide what type of life you want to live - a happy one with some stress or one that is full of stress and tears.
If you just wanted to vent, maybe you should have posted this in a boo hoo thread instead of a parenting one where people are likely to give you suggestions. JMHO though....
And no, you don't need to justify yourself. However, you do need to take some responsability as a parent of 1 soon to be 2 children. Theres a saying that I have heard oh so many times "if nothing changes nothing changes". You can apply it in so many situations.
I get that parenting is hard, hell I have had my fair share of days where all I do is cry because i'm so stressed and completely over it. In fact as I type this I'm on my 4th day off work with shingles on my face that are sore, exhausted and my body aches, my kids are at home and are loud, noisy and making a mess. But at the end of the day, it's my decision how i parent them. People will give thier opinions and advice and I take what I want from it and leave what I don't. But I also know that sometime I do just need someone to tell me how it is.
I'm not going to come back in here as I feel that maybe your not ready to take any of the advice i have suggested and clearly you feel uncomfrtable with it. I think sometimes everyone get offended at things said to us and it's not until later that we think back and go, yeah, you know what, they weren't trying to be offensive, just trying to help. And i think thats what many people in here are trying to
