    In desperate need of a break but husband won’t let my mom help me

    @luther27 All the major decisions hinge on him, yes—mainly in the name of his career (what cities/states we move to and live in, etc). Since he’s always made more money than me I kind of just went with it because I 1) didn’t want to act entitled (I just don’t believe I deserve a say for some...

    In desperate need of a break but husband won’t let my mom help me

    @elrefale Ugh. I am so, so sorry that happened with your mom and your toddler. That’s absolutely egregious. I wish my husband understood that the issues with my mom are non-issues.

    In desperate need of a break but husband won’t let my mom help me

    @dawn16 She’s definitely not an addict! Again, I’ve had my issues with her but mother daughter relationships can be complex as I’m sure all of us here know intimately.

    In desperate need of a break but husband won’t let my mom help me

    In the past my husband has said he doesn’t want our daughter to receive any clothes as gifts after age 1 because of the fear that getting the wrong size could cause body image issues (this is something I told him happened to me as a kid). Our daughter is 13 months and for one of her Christmas...
