This diatribe will go just as well towards vindictive, angry mothers as it will fathers but, as I’ve just gotten done with a tour of the Blogosphere and read some of the nasty, crappy things some fathers have done to their children to get back at their ex’es… this post will address revenge-seeking fathers.
You suck.

It seems we’ve fallen into another golden time we’ll look back on when we’re older–with fondness and nostalgia, I hope. I’m a lucky single mother.
When I was a little girl, my father would take me to Doc Dalinsky’s over on Wisconsin and O Streets. It was a pharmacy, an old fashioned drugstore, where Nettie who […]
Listen up, single moms. I’ve got a story to tell. It’s got a big lesson right up front: careful what you say. It might come round and bite you on the ass.
Someone in my family isn’t speaking to me, for good reason. I opened up my big mouth and said a whole bunch of stuff […]
I wished, not for the first time, that the King of Everything’s father lived closer. They have their own relationship, and the KoE is getting better about expressing what he does and does not like, and how he expects to be treated. I hope he can continue to do so, as he grows up, in […]
You know, in between the death of my aunt and the new job and the grueling schedule we have now, you’d think I’d be moaning and groaning, dooming and glooming. Nope. Let’s add to the mix the phone call I got this morning for the KoE’s dad, who had found a fabulous, last minute deal […]
Karen Alonge over at Minti has posted some great advice on how to get along with your ex and make two homes, two families, and one heart work for the kids: 10 Stragegies for Co-Parenting with an Un-Cooperative Ex.
I love #9: Free your children to love both of you without reservation or fear. “Show your […]
Maybe I can say this because I’m not a rabid Beatles fan — I was caught between Kiss and the Who when I was coming of age, thank you very much. (What that says about me, I’m not quite sure…) But the vitriol being spouted about celebrities as they gear up to split up is […]
One of the things I felt I had to agree to in order to leave the UAE with our son was that the ex would get him for Christmas. I hated it, wasn’t comfortable with it, and knew in my heart that it would all be too much for my three year old: leave the […]
Kate over at Babylune has interviewed Gloria Gamat, who writes Cancer Commentary, about what it’s like to be a single mother from the beginning.
Thank you, Kate and Gloria, for such a thoughtful conversation about the real life choices mothers make every day when we’re left to raise our children more or less by ourselves. I […]
It’s difficult to talk on the phone with the Ex right now. I don’t have anything to say that doesn’t start off with, “Why?” I’m angry. While I’m excited about the life and possibilities that are opening in front of me and my our child, I’m hurt, angry and bewildered that there was apparently something […]
