A quick intro... Neither my boyfriend nor I have any children. However, he is "dad" to his ex-girlfriend's daughter. Hence why I am here.

I'm pretty new to all this and to this site, but reading all your stories I have to say I am truly impressed by everyone's resilience and patience and willingness to fight for their families and to making it work (whatever "it" may be!)

You've all been through so much frustration and hurt and... FRUSTRATION! I'm just trying to find what works too.

If I could I would buy you all a well deserved drink! Or a sound proof room in which you can scream the f-word all day long!

Just wanted to say again how much I admire you all and greatly respect what it takes to be any kind of parent... Keep on truckin!
