I hate even writing this, but I really don’t want to leave my 5 month old alone with my husband. I’m a SAHM and love being with my little one.

I need some advice. My dog thought the neighbours kids wanted to play with him and he chased the kids. Later the father came up to me and asked me to put him on the lead next time (I asked before if it was ok to let him off) as my dog caught on of the kids ankle.

Her dad and i went through a nasty custody battle and him and his mother spoil the hell out of her. Tell her stupid things to make her hate me.
