I have not lived with my ah for four years. My children do not know any other way. Yes they are happy. They love their daddy and they talk to him often. My kids have everything they need and want. They laugh and are kind and very smart. So I do not think that they are in a bad situation at all.
As far as counseling......been there, done that. I've had so much counseling....I counsel others. Counseling doesn't change one's morals. No one can ever give the correct answers to another one's life because they do not live in the situation. So with any counseling you take what you need and leave the rest. I wanted advice or opinions to help sort through what I am thinking of.
My list would be this:
1) Do you drink?
2) Are you on medication?
3) What are your religious beliefs?
4) What is your relationship with your mother?
5) How many female friends do you have?
6) Are you handy around a house?
7) How do you disapline a child?
8) How many relationships have they have and how did they end, or who's fault was it...if it was always the female then he's LYING!
9) Would they be willing to take a test for all STD's?
10) Can they dance....(there is a reason for that question)
Chores is a must!!! But I would know that before we were married or dating.
9)
