I'm having the afternoon off.
Had a busy morning writing letters, filling in forms, phoning people and cleaning cupboards (interspersed with visits to MSE of course :o ). I'm going to sit and watch Harry Potter 3 this afternoon. I know how to enjoy myself, me. :rotfl: It was either that or go out to the retail park for shopping but I'll spend too much…

help / advice / or just read!
Posting under a different name for obvious reasons. Not money saving and I know no one can help me but I don’t have anywhere else to ‘spout off’. Long story short, my husband has been having an inappropriate relationship with another woman for a long time. He’s promised to break it off many times and has each time, but…

Now this month is the last month of everything so have a drop of about £800 - £900 depending on OT. This money has been lovely and yes…

Placing a child in to foster care. + the history
My eldest child suffers from what is basically rage. She is angry at everything, everyone and anything that moves but more than anything else she hates me with a passion, ever since we left her dad (he was abusive to live with and attacked our children which was the final straw) the trouble is she cant remember this, he…

DD Self Harming
Whilst my 14 year old DD was reaching up for a packet of crisps today I noticed some marks on her side. I asked her to lift up her shirt and she declined the offer. I eventually got her to lift it and found some really awful looking self harm scars. I then said I wanted to check her legs, again after some refusal she…

Bupa health insurance
I've been part of Bupa now for 4 years. I joined when i was 27, and was quoted £55 for the fully comprehensive cover. Didn't have any existing conditions then, so i felt it was pretty reasonable. I went to see a consultant once, and had a few tests done, because i thought well i'm with BUPA, might as well! Isn't that what…

Me and My Girls
Don't really know where to start but here goes. I split with my daughters father back in 2003, not a nice ending but it had to happen due to the sort of person he is. Since then the childcare has been split 50/50, my girls are now almost 10. Worst mistake I have ever made not having them full time, but I was brow beaten…
