I am so done with everything and people. I just want to runaway an hide. Life is so hard, never enough money, no real friends, people are mean and lie. I wish I could just pick up my family and move to some deserted island and just live their with them
for the rest of my life and not have to deal with anyone else.

Why is it that other parents make it so difficult to raise your own children.
I have goals and high hopes for my kids, while wanting them to be kids and grow up happy and healthy. I enjoy being with my kids and I am interested in what they like and want to do. I enjoy seeing them learn and have fun. But, some parents just want their kids out of their hair and don’t give a crap what they do, drinking, partying and sex. Why do they want to grow up so fast, there is time for all this later. This all puts pressure on my kids, who don’t really care to do all those things, but lose friends because they don’t. This is so unfair to them!

I am 40 years old and have been a stay at home mom for most of my life. I have no college degree (expensive piece of paper), which in the job world means I am qualified for nothing. I have been taking classes at the local community college towards some kind of degree, but I am still undecided, so I am taking all the basic classes. Now that my kids are older and less dependent on me, I feel like I need to feel needed and useful.

My husband is wonderful and loves me with all his heart and I am thankful for that. I just wish we had enough money for him to fix the health problems he has. He has always made sure the kids and I have always had what we needed, but has not taken care of himself. I want to him to grow old with me!
