ye its frightening to think you have to think twice about standing up for yourself now, or just asking someone to please not swear! its not just a lot of running off at the mouth or a slap you are risking,, its your life:(

Well I think when this happens they tend to feel as if they're not obligated to make any extra effort in reference to what they feel are others' needs when really it should be just as much their obligation to make an equal effort in allowing their child to see other members of their family...Seeing as how the parents of the children are the ones responsible for their childs every action and the fact that they're not responsible enough to be expected to travel places...

Mainly probably because they feel burdened and feel it's a sufficient sacrifice to not make that extra effort in traveling for the sake of reunion compared to their short sighted needs...

RAINBOWS

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you.

And share with you it's beauty

On the days you're feeling blue.

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own.

A place to find serenity

A place to be alone.

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them in the sea.

But all these things I'm finding

are impossible for me,

I cannot build a mountain

Or catch a rainbow fair

But let me be...what I know best,

a friend that's always there.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a

day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

Last year Chris had a run in with his son....the fact that his son thought it was upto Chris to do ALL the vsiting if he wanted to see his Grandchild.....unbelieveable or what....anyway I have a cousin who basically expects the same and Chris and I are both abit peed off with it......we think the world of her and her little family but cant keep going over there fgs....its not round the corner and at the end of the day both of us have the same distance to travel when visiting......anyway she text me today again saying about going over there.....I told her we couldn't as Chris is building something...which he is....and im still not 100% due to my fall....I then text Chris as he is at work with my comments on the situation but sent it to her instead..................need I say anymore.....all hell broke loose but I guess it brought it to a head.You cant keep putting yourself out for people regardless who they are and how it may hurt to break the strings......a one way traffic relationship no matter who it is is not a true one and I would rather be hurt not seeing that person again then to live a life where you are expected to do all the visiting.......... and at the price of petrol today Im sorry but this has to be thought about these days....hard facts but ones I stand by....I would NEVER dream of expecting people to do all the visiting fgs without putting myself out to do likewise.....and if Im wrong.....well thats me and Im to old to change now.


just taken dog out before it chucks it down again, now as you can see, doing a bit of reading back.

i have this problem with my youngest,

they have a car, i dont, so to visit them means over an hours journey on a bus cos the damn thing goes the long way round, which i cant do anyway cos it means leaving the dog for a long period of time due to bus time tables.

to visit me, takes them about 25 mins in their car, the last time they came was march 2nd, my birthday and mothers day rolled into one..............

on the rare occasions i go to stay with them, i always pay for petrol for them to pick me up and bring me home, treat the kids and end up buying food and cooking for them so they certainly dont do it for nothing.

when they leave me, theres great shouts of any time you want to come over all you have to do is phone.................... when i do, they always have something else to do !!!!!!!

right im getting off here now, i may get on tomorrow but im going to the van so it will depend on what time we go:-3 anyway if not i'll see you all on Wednesday and in the meantime ,,, bloody behave!!!!!!!!:D:wah::-4
