Mom's going through divorce/separation/ breakups

Divorce

So me and my husband after being together. Since sixth grade, our divorcing, we have one son. He's 3 months old and I just stopped being a stay at home, mom. I just got a job a few weeks ago. And I'm only going to be making 500 A month. He can't afford child support or alimony, or anything like that. And like, I get to stay in the home for a few years. Bite only for a few years. And then he wants me out. The baby is breastfed. Thank you in advance.

Feeling all sorts of ways- racial tensions

Anyone else feeling scared of the increasing intensity and frequency of race riots in the UK?

Also, before shit hits the fan like it does on other platforms (i can't believe) i have to say i think all perpetrators of violence are scum, whatever they may look like 👍

Personal advice

I had a hunch so I checked my partners messages and he joined a porn sever and messaged one of the girls on there asking if her dms were open. Nothing happened but I'm still quite hurt that he even thought about messaging another girl. He said its because he lost control because I haven't done anything sexual in months (we have a 2 month old) idk if I can forgive and just need opinions

Would you describe yourself as..

Racist?
Obviously this is an anonymous poll so I wonder if anyone thinks of themselves as this? I’ve heard a lot of “I’m not racist but” then an obviously racist remark being said and wonder if people genuinely believe the first line they’ve just said. This is not to start an argument in the comments section…it’s I guess a fairly straight forward question.

Maternity leave

When is normal time to go off on maternity leave?
I was trying to work as long as possible before baby comes but I’m currently 31 weeks and struggling !!

Boys watching girl shows

For some background information we live in Utah and here it’s very common to tell boys you can’t like pink that’s a girl thing, etc. if you believe oppositely it’s unusual and you’ll get looked at weird also it’s a very Republican state. Especially where we live more on the countryside of Utah.

I’m democratic and my husband is in the middle, but he believes that we shouldn’t let our son watch “girl shows” even though we both have no problem if he decides in the future he finds out he’s gay/trans etc.

I hate this, but it’s the only thing he’s really cared about how would you convince someone in a nice way that teaching your sons it’s bad to be feminine is harmful? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Do you struggle with empathy ?

I feel like I really struggle having empathy for people, all I hear is aaa im a victim aaa im like this cos of this. I can really sympathise for people but I guess where I had it so tough growing up and into adulthood that I just get on with things yes it’s hard but I don’t ever use it as a excuse I use it as a reason to be better . I can’t stand weak people I guess that’s my problem! Does anyone relate or have any insight into this behaviour as I feel awful that I can’t give better advice other than suck it up be strong you can get through any thing !! 🙈
