I have an IVO against my ex, and he is currently on a good behaviour bond with several criminal charges pending. He has court ordered dinners with our 13 year old son once per week, and much to my dismay the court agreed to one night per fortnight for our son to stay over. Our 17 year old daughter...

OMG, my husband and I are so over our middle daughter (13). The other two are 15 and almost 11. Her bedroom and "shared" (with her younger sister) bathroom are putrid. The younger sister can't even use the bathroom at all. There are used pads left everywhere. After having a shower will just sit on...

It is so hard to have narcissistic traits and be a mother. I am constantly reminding myself that it’s not all about myself. I worked a super long, draining week at work, came home, and on my first day off my daughter had a high fever. I looked forward to relaxing and de-stressing but My days off...

Why do men get to decide when they’re a parent or not? Women are expected to bend over backwards to make shit work but men think it’s okay to excuse themselves from doing something if it’s “too difficult”. Example. Both my husband and I just got a new job, he doesn’t know his schedule yet, but it’s...

my 4 year old used to be the sweetest little guy, everyone would comment how empathetic and kind he was. he was cheeky, funny, loving etc etc. but lately it's like a switch has flipped and he just winges and whines over EVERYTHING. I'm lucky that there's no tantrums or anything like that, just...

I feel mislead- when my husband and I were dating he was so much fun, romantic, spicy, exciting, intriguing, thoughtful, etc. he went above and beyond for everything and made me feel like a million bucks. I never in my life felt so adored. Flash forward to now, and he is nowhere near what he was...

Hi sisterhood. I desperately need some objective ideas and ways to navigate a narcissist. He is an ex of 4 years. Very toxic, controlling and manipulative. Our children are early teens now.

He says it’s easier not to have friends or play because of this. He...
