[QUOTE="hexemaus2, post: 397911, member: 4560"] OMG Hound Dog...3 days?!? Oh no. One of us would be in jail and the other in the morgue. I think 30 minutes is my limit before I'm ready to rip her a new one...no matter what she says or does...even mundane things. In my eyes, all she should be consumed with at this point in her life is getting her proverbial poop in a group so she can be a real mom to Rae. All it takes is hearing "so and so and I went to such and such place the other day..." and I'm ready to go off. I want to scream "And why were you going ANYWHERE but to look for a job, or take some parenting classes, or even CALL YOUR CHILD!?!" I think that's where a lot of my anger comes from...the situation with Rae. I just don't understand how she can be so cold and uncaring towards that sweet little girl. After the years upon years of days where I just wanted to walk away and never come back...I stuck it out because I love my kids...that's what us Moms do. Even though, given how violent difficult child 2 was at the time and the living in constant fear, I don't think anyone who knew our situation would have blamed me much for throwing in the towel. But still...I stuck it out. I endured it all. Yet here she is...too darn lazy to get a job, finish school, or do anything useful with herself, and she doesn't even call her child to say "Hi sweetie. Mommy loves you." Nothing. Nadda. Grrr...that kind of calousness just drives me to the very edge of my restraint. [/QUOTE]
