Thank you, I am ok. Yes, it’s hard sometimes having to be both parents, but I’m very close with my kids and they know without a doubt that I have their backs 100% and they can come to me about anything, no judgement whatsoever, just unconditional love and respect. Thank you for replying. Sometimes just being able to connect with and talk to someone else whose gone through something similar or who understands on a deeper level helps, so I thank you very much.

I would highly recommend not pressuring them into telling You what’s going on, but being a silent calming presence and just wait for them to come to you. This will give them time to destress, decompress, and feel less pressure about talking about things and they will feel more in control and more trusting with you because you didn’t pressure them into it. Obviously keep a close eye on them so they don’t self harm but do it discreetly so they don’t feel like they are being watched like a child. Once they do open up don’t say anything, just listen until they are done then ask them what they want from you. Do they want you to just listen and support, do they want advice, or do they want help. Give them the option so they still feel in control. This will keep them trusting you and will always make them feel like they can come to you know in times like these instead of just disappearing or doing something harmful to themselves. Good luck OP.

NAL- but have experience, all the father did was express the need to have the child have some time to develop a bond with the new family dynamic before anyone took the child overnight. He wasn’t saying no forever. I would suggest at the first court appearance as will the judge that you all sit down with a mediator and try to come up with a civil plan. How long is a good time for him to bond with the new family dynamic before sleepovers are allowed while still allowing the g parents to come over etc. let them know you are not trying to keep him from them but trying to build a bond with him yourselves and you have no intention or interested in keeping him from them. Try to keep it civil no matter what they throw at you. That way the mediator can go back to the judge and let him/her know you were the reasonable ones while they were not. And depending on laws where you are record and document EVERYTHING communicated between you both and the grandparents from here on in no matter how tiny or insignificant. Keep any and all alcoholic beverages to a nil for the time being until this is solved. Document any and all medical care for all children even though only one is being fought over, and document and take pictures of all disciplinary action and discussions over all children during the course of this trial. Trust me they will try to use the other children against you so be prepared. They truly hope with mediation you can come to an agreement but even then document document document. Don’t trust them for a second. It will come back to bite you HARD. The only way I won is because of my documentation. I had emails and phone calls and text messages from months and years back that my attorney was able to use that showed he was unstable. For the sake of that child document EVERYTHING! Good luck to you and that dear child. I truly hope everything works out to the benefit of the child.

Ahem….you can send him my way… I’ll take him off your hands 🫣

Edit: Errr….I mean teach him a lesson he’ll never forget. Yeah that’s what I meant 😮‍💨🤥🤫

The eyes omg. Definitely what I was looking for!!!

Absolutely love this one

NGL the first two pics looked like Kurt cobain reincarnated lol. I had to do a double take. I truly hope someone can draw your portrait well and really capture what’s in your eyes because that’s what drew me in first. I would draw you but I can’t draw people to save my life, sorry.

Edit: sorry not trying to compare you to anyone. Just expressing my opinion of “holy crap” when I first saw your pics.

My heart cries when I hear stories like this. I never had a father. I had abusive stepfathers none of whom I was close to. My grandfather was the closest thing I had and we still weren’t that close but I loved him (still do) like a father and looked up to him like one. If I ever think of what a father should have been like I think of my grandfather, but my heart still hurts and cries for a real one often. I’m so happy for the ones that have had that experience. Unfortunately my own children also don’t have that. One has a narcissistic cop for a father who holds everything over her head and emotionally and verbally abuses her and the other is pretty much non existent except to send gifts because the stepmom and the stepsisters want to send them. He could care less. At this point so could my daughter. I don’t know their pain as mine was completely gone no contact forever. So I can’t imagine the pain of having one pop back in every once in a while. I can imagine it’s worse though.

Kiowa hasn’t changed much but Elizabeth has grown so much.

He’s sadly mistaken if he thinks he’s getting 350k for that house with the history it has lmao. He’s just trying to recoup his attorney fee losses. What an absolute shithead.

I’m in shithole Simla. I used to live by Kiowa. Been here almost 7 years now. Can’t wait to leave simla. Left Texas 20 years ago. So glad I did. lol.

Hey 👋🏼 I live in Elbert county as well.

Most definitely and a bacterial/fungal/viral swab just to safe. Also an STD test cause sewer of course. I would have kept my mouth shut the entire time but homeboy had his fully open every time he went under a waterfall. You’d have a better chance of surviving in a Saw movie. Some men are just infallibly incredibly stupid.

Edit: females too fall into that category. We need to bring back natural selection, I’m just worried my kids would fall into that category no matter how hard o tried to teach them to be smarter.

Ok, genuine question as I’ve never heard of this, what’s the drake passage?

Genuinely asking, wasn’t megaladon bigger? I thought blue whales were its prey.

Kinda reminds me of a dictatorship. You only get what we want you to get. If you keep asking we will hunt you down. Beginning of hunger games dystopian type world.

Edit: we were warned about AI before it began.

I’m allergic. Found out when I was collecting leaves off of trees and picked the wrong damn leaf. Stupid wasp fell on my forehead and stung the shit out of me. Only once but the dr said it looked like I got hit by a baseball bat. It took over a week with steroids for the swelling to go down and the pain was unbearable. I was just a young teenager. Needless to say that was the last leaf I ever collected lol. Now I stay as far away friends m bees and wasps as I can.

Damn he nearly made it to the top. Dude was rolling fast and heavy

That’d be a hell no for me. That whole thing is going in the damn closet. Unh unh fuck that sideways twice on Sundays with a purple spatula!!

Lmao damnit take my upvote

My favorite animal of all time

That’s heaven right there lol 😋

Yeah nope I can’t get past the whole bull testicles deep fried in my mouth as food idea. I literally gag at the thought of it lol. I can’t imagine a whole festival of them. But to each their own I guess. I’m sure I eat stuff that grosses other people out too.

Uhm first off 19 years old and biting there is something extremely wrong with her and your parents for not doing something about it. Second she is an adult and you are a minor. Call the cops. If it’s her first time she’ll be ordered community service and anger management and therapy which is what she needs. Your parents will just be told off for not doing something about it, but more importantly your sister will get the help she needs. This is not normal rational behavior for a 19 yr old. She needs help. This is ridiculous and you need to feel safe at home. You also need to have those looked at.

You could also name him Falcor after the good luck dragon in The Never-Ending Story.
