Check this out

Here's an article that the person wanted me to read and then comment on:

http://www.ehow.com/how_5324437_improve-relationship-cheating-pt.html

Now what's funny about this article is that the writer honestly believes that this saved her relationship.  I beg to differ.  Two wrongs do not make a right.  Why should you lower yourself to get back at someone or how can you lower yourself?  This has to already be in this person and no matter who she is with, she will probably do this.

It's sad that grown women are handling themselves in this manner and these are the kind of women are young girls are looking at.  Women are supposed to be better than men.  We are supposed to have a level of repsect for ourselves that when we are not being treated the way we want, we don't lower our standards, we leave.

The writer of this article clearly has some growing to do.  She needs to take a break from men and find her true self and maybe she'll find her true worth.

How to become his wife

I just wrote another article and I am curious to see the comments. I am finding that some of my material may be conflicting to others opinions but it's okay. It's my opinion based upon my own experiences.

I decided to write this article because I know a few women that really want to be married to their significant other but for some reason or another, years have gone by, children have been born, they act like they are married but it's not official. I have looked at these relationships and wondered why do these women settle for this. In conversations they express their desire to be married and they have stated that they do not want to be with anyone else but this man. BUT, what are they sacrificing and giving up to just be with this person.

Sometimes we have to face reality and decide to move on. Women stop settling when you know what you want. On the flip side of this though, are you marriage material. Does this man see you as a wife? If he did, wouldn't you be his wife?

America's Family Prisons

There is a you tube video at the bottom of my blog I want you to check out. I cannot believe this is going on right here in America - what has happened to our country.

I agree with so many people that there should be something done about illegal immigration but I do not think this is the answer - after all - there are innocent children involved.

Give me feedback!!!

Raising responsible children

STOP being in a constant battle with your children. STOP yelling while saying the same thing over and over again. I have learned that when we do this, we are only wearing ourselves down and it's not beneficial to you or the child.You have to say what you mean and then follow with a consequence. You should only say something once, give the child a time limit for example "you have 30 minutes to clean your room." After the time limit, if the chore is still not completed then you give the consequence and don't bend. If the consequence is no TV the rest of the day then that means no TV the rest of the day. And by the way, you still expect the room to be cleaned.Children are very smart from a very early age and they know how to push your buttons and what they can get away with. I have 5 children. My husband and I do not make idle threats, we expect a certain behavior. We do allow our children to express their feelings to us and we listen, but at the end of the day, we make our decisions based on the best interest of our children.Do not let your children run over you. Say what you mean and then follow through with actions. Your children will grow up respecting you and others. All children need boundaries and they crave it, it shows you love them. Trust me, they may not say it now, but once they are grown, they will THANK YOU!!!
