More Adventures in Secular Parenting

[Erinome]

I met him when I was 18.

I saw a hard dick and someone who was nice to be because I let him stick it in me. That much I remember. I'm sure there were more things, but I have been awake too long to remember them.

[Zen Badger]

I can sympathise, I made a similar mistake when I was 19.
Which I didn't rectify until I met Kichi 22 years later.

Oh well.

[KichigaiNeko]

I feel terrible about the way I reacted. I'm totally ashamed of myself. Lesson learned, that's the important thing.

RUBBISH! Alei!!

You were a mother protecting her offspring..he is lucky you didn't have a fucking knife or he would be singing soprano now...when the wound heals.

Yeah you may have reacted a little too swiftly but then a mother who reacts late to the danger to her child looses said child

Don't beat yourself up about it...he's a dirt under your feet now...go find a mat.

[Jackalope]

Holy shit. I'm sorry you had to go through that Alei. Other than punching your ex in the face, I'd say you handled yourself well - and even that part is understandable, if regrettable.

Chalk it up to a lesson learned and move on.

P.S. Your kids are way smarter than their father.

[frankiej]

Hah, your kids are awesome.
If more were like that I might actually like kids.

violence belongs in the bedroom.

Hypotheically..... obviously...... do you spank naughty boys?

[Erinome]

No. I've established this crazy thing with my kids called respect. They are more terrified of just the act of disappointing mom. All I have to do is look at them sternly and say, "I'm really disappointed in you.", and their lip quivers, tears start falling, and they think there can be nothing worse.

I'd probably spank you, though 5th... hypothetically... obviously.
