Re:
You cannot believe how valuable this post is to me because believe it or not this has been DIFFICULT to be so honest about my past BUT I guess it's the anonymity that makes it possible.  I "think" I would like to get to the point where I can speak about it in front of people "especially children" and could "hopefully" save them from a lot of these bad bad choices.  IF we could have a class in grade school specifically for "self esteem" I think there would be a lot less of these horror stories.  In my opinion it all has to do with a LACK of self esteem.  I've even been "thinking" of writing childrens books "about self esteem" or something like that.  I'm still on my journey and I thank all of you for reading my story and adding your comments.  It will ALL be instrumental in my decision to do something with my life to make the world a better place!

Re:
It's all the truth taps and as they say, "truth is stranger than fiction".......I've never really let anyone know about "my life" I was too ashamed of the whole thing but interestingly enough this process is helping me in "my healing process" and I didn't have a clue when I started it that I was even in "need" of healing.  Thanks for reading my story. It started a long time ago..................

Re: Goodness my youngest never had things as difficult as your boy...
I'm very sorry to hear that your child "hates you" that's a horrible thing to have to live with but you know what?  His loss is OUR gain!!  WE obviously think you're the GREATEST!!  I'm just in total shock to find out how much this goes on in the world!  You and Wiley have a lot in common and obviously know how to comfort each other and it's GREAT that you two found each other!

Re:

Sam,

I just feel the need to accept some of the responsibility for some of the things that happened along the way and not place all the blame on my kids' Dad.  I honestly feel that in doing so I've freed myself of a LOT of the guilt.  Not all of it but I'm still working on it.  Thank you very much for defending me though! :)  I really appreciate it!!

Good for him;' it will make him a better person in the long run! You went through some very difficult times and I don't think it is right to find fault with your decisions when you were seeking some kind of peace for you life and the lives of your children! We can only do our best and then leave the rest up to others it has touched in hopes they can see the bigger picture! sam

Life is difficult for most people at one time or another, and
it sounds as if you have had your share of difficulties. 
Interesting writing.

Your candor is very much appreciated. I haven't been through the exact same circumstances, but, I find, what you've shared, very valuable.
