Mom worried about crying children

March 29, 2010 12:00 - 2 minutes - 2.71 MB

I have a 4 1/2 yr old son and an 8 yr old daughter. Both are great kids except they cry at the drop of a hat and my husband & I are at the end of our rope! My daughter is getting better as she gets older but my son cries because his pants are too short or because he's not as good at Super Mario Wii as his friend.

Running out of potty training patience

Sara, I have no idea where to turn anymore when it comes to potty training. I think we have done it all and our patience with our 3-year-old son has run out. I am expecting my second child any day now and my plan was to have my oldest son trained before the arrival of this baby.

How should a father deal with being cut off from his kids?

February 08, 2010 16:13 - 2 minutes - 2.14 MB

Sara, I love my kids so much more than any regular father. My wife and I were the primary care givers and took good care of the kids since day one but my wife laid false criminal charges against me and has blocked all types of communication between me and my kids. I am going crazy here. We have been separated since September 3rd 2009 and I've only been able to see them twice since then. We have not been able to get a court date earlier than March 10th 2010 and the judge does not like to brin...
