I never thought


I truly feel like sometimes I ain’t good enough for certain family members like I was never at the level that they wanted me to be

No matter how much I helped

No matter how much I listen

No matter how much I encourage

And still I’m expected to show respect to someone who views me as an enemy instead of family

It causes damage mentally

Causes frustration

Why be around me if you don’t like me

It’s been feeling like I’m being used

But it’s your opinion that matters most

Yet I get mistreated and only help from you

If it benefits you

I don’t get help from you unless you want something in return

If I complain then I’m wrong

But why can’t I tell you how you wronged me

It’s sad, upsetting, and frustrating

Pondering


How do you instill things in your children that will help them grow and learn?

How do you get your children to understand how to be obedient and listen without overwhelming yourself?

I don’t want to keep using the same methods that didn’t get me anywhere with my older son with my younger children, so I tried to talk more and be more patient versus how I was with my older son and just discipline him every chance I got..

As I get older and my children grow older, it seems like talking to them at times feels like a lot like nobody is comprehending or understanding what it is that I’m trying to instill in them or teach them.

I grew up with several different ways of being disciplined and the ways that I chose to utilize what I was taught was not always good with my oldest child so I’m trying to be different with my other children…

What are some ways that you feel you can teach your children how to listen and understand what you’re teaching them without huge confusion or confrontation??

I genuinely would like an answer as to how you parent your children and what were the results of your parenting techniques that you use on your children?

Undesired


there was a point and time where i was afraid to be alone, I was afraid to deal with me and so to avoid it, I would surround myself with what I called friends, I would try to drink my problems away or even deal with a no good man to feel satisfied… but it never helped because anytime God would have me sit with myself and my thoughts i dealt with fear, anger, sadness, and bitterness. I often found myself lying to me telling me I was good and that the mask i had on was good enough. it wasnt. the veil had become lifted and those emotions and feelings had come to surface. I couldnt hide it anymore, so I made a fool of myself I thought I could keep pretending and it gotten to the point where everyone saw me for who i was sad,bitter, angry, and an emotional rollercoaster. I couldnt hide behind anyone, I couldnt fake it, so I began to play the victim knowing i was the cause of my own disater and fate.
