Confused and Out of Whack in Life in the Lost Lane...

So as a family we are going through a divorce and child custody issues, it seriously sucks, i would have to say i was the first one to tell my brother he could have ran away on his actual wedding day (considering we found out two weeks prior that she cheated on him, but once we had to deal with all of this, shes probably been doing it all along.), but alas some of us have to learn our lessons the hard way. The only good thing to come out of this is that i became an aunt. Cutest lil booger ever. This woman has put our family through heck, drinking all different kinds of stuff, leaving her children unattended and just leaving and coming back god knows when, along with the fights and physical abuse she would do to us. She had even hit me once, that was the last time she did that, im a very passive person until im forced to be otherwise. At least we were here to take care of the children. And now that she left him while he was progressing in his work to do better for his family because for christs sake someone had to work and earn a living. Other men and partying, come on there has to be a time in your life that your like this isnt good for my children, i have no idea why the courts would give this person so many chances that she keeps squandering them. I personally believe that if your a screw up over and over and over then you should be fixed, how many more children is she going to bring into this world and possibly something really bad would happen to them. Shes already been on the state watch list for at least 2 years this will be the 3rd.

And if your allowed almost a visit every day of the week and all you have to do is call someone before 8 am and thats all you have to do to see your kids, you would bet your ass i would be up early enough to do that. Nope i think she gets to see them maybe 1 time a week but 2 times would be pushing it. When she would be in her fights she would get mad at me because she was like you think your perfect, im like im not perfect but i know whats right and wrong and i wouldnt be having these god awful fights in front of my children. You dont ever do stuff in front of your children! I just want to be like your teaching your kids that its ok to be shitty to people, to not have to work for what they need let alone want, to be polite to others and to help. And always do 100% in a relationship, they are two way parties and you both have to be making that effort. I dont think my brother knows what the future holds, neither do i but this is also his first kid, he has a lot of firsts to experience. I am trying to make him realize that as a parent all your needs and wants dont matter as much as your childs does. Will be an interesting roller coaster ride for sure. Not looking forward to it. Grrrwl until next time...
