Re: stopping a move

10/26/08 10:06 PM

I'm sad every day that my daughter isn't going to grow up with us all in the same home. It's not that we don't get along well and we don't argue about anything. He knows I'm a good mom and I know he's a good dad. I know all I will ever have to worry about when she's with him is her getting spoiled rotten. I can live with that. If it ever got to a point where I could move closer to him I would definitely consider it. Right now I have 3 other children and their dad lives here and my one yo's dad has another child also and lives near him. I wouldn't expect him to give up his son and other family to be closer to her, so for now we do what we have to. This man gave me one of the 4 greatest gifts in my life. Definitely unplanned but utter perfection nevertheless. There is so much of him in her that I couldn't imagine denying that half of her. I hope someday your daughters mother can see things that way. A child is not property. God loans them to us to raise and it's our obligation to do that the best we can.

My x husband and I also have a good relationship. We share 50/50 placement of our three kids together, he has an incredible wife who has become one of my most valued friends and our children are thriving. (not perfect by any means but well adjusted LOL) I can't imagine living a life with the stress of not getting along with my kids father. WE didn't always get along well. It probably took about 3 years before we did but we have always been civil and able to discuss our kids in a productive manner.

I don't think it will be as easy for your daughters mom to move away with her as she thingks it will. Just stick to your guns and offer to be the custodial parent if she feels it will better her life to move away. She could do the web cam visitation like she's offering you. What's good for the goose............

When we were together, you said you'd die for me. Now, I think it's time you kept your promise.
