Mom troubles...again.

Posted by Amber Rose at 10:35 AM

So I just found out some horrible news...I told you about when I moved in with my best friend to find a job and my mother took Tucker and all this drama started....well I guess when I moved back in with Nathan and started fixing everything, she had called my best friend and asked her to testify against me...

I'll admit, when I was living with her, I did some pretty dumb stuff. I went out partying and drinking...mainly cuz I was hurt that my mother would do this sorta thing to me...and that the love of my life had walked out....But also becuase I was just young and dumb and needed to be numb...

Well my best friend just told me that my mother had done this....she is trying every loophole to screw me over and keep my son...It's so sad... I feel even more abused by her than I did last week...she's taking everything she can and tryin to use it against me.

I hate the fact that I've never had a mother. I mean, I have...but she wasn't right in the head....we are going on 7 years now that she's continuously screwed me...if you don't count not letting me see my father while I was growing up.

Ugh, I just want to lay down in bed and cry right now...

    That sounds like a good starting place... a good cry can do wonders for stress. Be right back...

    I'm back. Went to older posts to review the time line. If you were only gone for a few weeks, that is not an abandonment issue. You and your mother had an agreement on it. She was entitled to support according to law, and that takes paperwork.

    OK, so you're young, alone, broke, etc. You partied a year ago. Did your 'friend' testify? Or is she going to? Do you have legal representation?

    Now you're stable in a committed relationship, living with his parents, which shows a more family-oriented lifestyle. Also, your son has a sibling coming... I think big points!

    I hope you are keeping everything you do and say above reproach. Parenting classes would be a huge plus to do before being asked by a court. Check with local churches and health district / human services to see what free counseling or support services they may offer. Check into it. I know it may seem like you don't need them, but you are being scrutinized! You need every thing on your side that you can get.

    As a last resort, fight fire with fire. It sounds like your mom may have issues still relating to your father. Your chances improve the less stable her environment appears. Document everything you can remember. Don't embellish; it WILL backfire. Don't be spiteful or hurtful, just truthful.

    I don't know if you attend church, but it's certainly a great place to go when things look bad. And it's a great way to strengthen your family. God can do miracles! But you have to ask Him. He doesn't force Himself on anyone.

    One of my favorite scriptures: I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 That verse gave me more strenght than you will ever know. Take a few moments and ponder it. I will pray for you!

    Wow. Just wow. Lily, you are more than a friend, you are a lifesaver. Amber, please pay attention to what she says here, because I worry that at 19, and pregnant, it will seem too large to handle. But it isn't. One day at a time. I am also praying for you, with all my heart, to find a way to sanity. Please let me know what's happening, so I can know if you are all right.

    Love, DJan

    Amber, Wow is right and I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. I don't understand your mother doing this to her own daughter. Why wouldn't she be trying to help you and your son be together, rather than making your life difficult? As a mother, I can not understand this. But it sure sounds like you are doing everything you are being told or asked to do. If every parent had to go through what you are with the court system, there would be very few parents that would qualify to keep their children. Lily's advice sounds very good, I hope it helps you. And good for you that you quilt and craft. I really believe that hobbies and creativity calms the mind and reduces stress. Good luck - your son should be with his mother.
    BTW - I really like your new site design!
