Ah yes! I'm so glad to finally meet with people who parent like we do. Refreshing, I will admit that I've never heard of "Grace based Dicipline before but it sounds exactly like the reason we chose to parent this way. God is love and I believe I should extend that to my child(ren). Has anyone...

I'm finding it very difficult to find some parents I can talk with who are in the same boat as me. We are Christians,and parents to a beautiful 13 month old daughter, but unlike a lot of our Christian friends, we parent along the AP style much more closely than the "typical" Christian families...

Hi Girls! How are we all doing? Just wondering if any of you have any tips for dealing with discomfort at night, I am 18+3 today and finding it hard to sleep at night...

Since being pregnant he has been Ah-MAY-Zing!!! :cool: He- Cleans the bathrooms for me :thumbsup: -Brings home chocolate to me as a wee surprise -Tells me I look SEXXAAAAAAYY (even though I feel like a beached whale) -Dances with me in the kitchen when I'm trying to wash up the dishes.^_^...

Nope,We were due to Marry on the 11.11.11 but brought our wedding forward to 7.4.11 (April 7th 2011)

What would I do? Well I'm in a similar situation where my Mother tries to lean on me for support, to occupy her time, for reassurance, for everything really. My Mum has other issues. But yes, it did cause a strain on my marriage for a while. What I would say though, is that is her MOTHER at...

My uncle was horribly rude my aunt for a very long time o the point we cried when mum said we were visiting, until one day, I never laughed so much in my life! My uncle started the usual raising his voice cursing and yelling at her, so she pulled from her pocket, an a4sized red page folded...

The man makes 6figures? Forgive me for adding some Humour but that's my theory out the window! I thought all rich people bought happiness, heck I'd love the opportunity try! Want my bank details for a Quick transfer? On a more serious note, I have never Been in a Situation like you are in...

I was just about to say that! Part of the whole male thing is building a healthy confidence/ego (not swelling it), maybe being slightly more needy? It may make him feel useful and fulfilled that he can do things for you. Hubby still thinks I can't hang a picture, when the truth is I'd probably...

No, but I'm not judging the man.

I don't think it's fair to say the man hasn't got a heart. Is possible to have anger issues and still love. That's like saying someone With depression can't love, if it's a mental health or emotional problem that can be helped then why can't he have a heart? I doubt he sets out daily to hurt...

Have you ever talked with him About it? What does he say causes it? Does he tell you why he thinks it's ok for him to treat you this way? How do we deal with the hard stuff? Write it all out. It may seem like its useless at the time, but you don't stop reading a letter or email half way...

Guys thanks a million, I was beginning to doubt my sanity. I don't think I'm "predicting" him having an affair and trust me, if he ever had one it would t be with her anyway! I was just thinking maybe there was some Subconscious insecurity there that I wasn't aware of. Hubby has arranged...

Just when hes staying over at ours.

100%! Words , actions, touch, expressions affection is so important to us. Even just telling hubby that shirt looks good on him boosts his confidence, or if he compliments me at all I feel a million. Nothing compares to kind words from your spouse. :blush:
