Super Nanny is going to try to show Phil Davis the damage he is doing to his family by using his youngest children. How the emotional abuse and the verbal abuse is truly damaging. Reminds me of this story: NAILS IN THE FENCE There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His Father gave him a bag...

The rain is cold and very wet. It is also much needed. And, perhaps the cold and wet day has also dampened other things.

Greta doesn't own it. A person can have a million reasons for wanting to be alone, but one of the more inte...

My AH is coming home from detox/rehab after three weeks either tomorrow or Friday. He is going straight into IOP. Judy (SerenityQueen) has given me some EXCELLENT advice about the transition such as: 1. Do NOT ask him if he's going to go to a meeting (except maybe once then drop it). 2. Do NOT expec...

I am the parent of a teen who has lost a boyfriend just over one week ago. My daughter is 18, her boyfriend would be 19 April 9th. Let me tell you about this young man.
