I was watching Anderson the other day and they were discussing divorce, alimony, child support etc etc etc....

Anyway, One Guy got up to complain about how much money he gives his ex wife and how he is trying to get it adjusted....she has the kids and over the years she has taken him to court often to try and squeeze even more money out of him....sometimes succeeding...

he stood up and said something that we all know...and I just thought I would repeat it here...."YOU CANNOT HIDE THE FIGHTING AND BITTERNESS OVER MONEY FROM YOUR KIDS....THEY PICK UP ON IT and they start taking sides. "AND IN MY EX WIVES SITUATION, SHE IS A VERY BITTER AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY A LITTLE OFF BALANCE, SHE WOULD EXAGGERATE THE SITUATION TO MY KIDS SAYING I REFUSE TO PAY HER ANY MONEY TO HELP BRING MY OWN CHILDREN UP.' "IN FACT, WHEN SHE WAS SAYING THIS, I WAS GIVING HER OVER TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS A MONTH.....AS A RESULT MY ELDEST SON DOESNT TALK TO ME ANYMORE AND HASNT FOR 7 YEARS, AND AS A RESULT MY DAUGHTER DOESNT TALK TO HER MOTHER'

As a Bio Mum and a SM - boy aint this the way it is.....
If we can fix this, Im sure our lives would be so much better and less stressed.....
