Well, I am not going to say you are not crazy. One must at least be a little crazy to survive this tough world. If one were total sane, one would look around and say, "Yeah Right; bye!" You cannot make another miserable. You do not have that power. They make themselves miserable. It is their and theirs alone. How David acts or reacts to you and your child is his business not yours. It sounds like ‘Danster’ is making some of his own choices now, quite like an adult, a dysfunctional adult maybe. Maybe you could choose to call him by his real name kinda like an adult and start treating him as if he can be responsible for some of his choices; experience the consequences of his choices and actions… maybe. Err… Danster is not his real name is it. I took a parenting class a long time ago. The acronym S.T.E.P. comes to mind. It was held at public schools. It was not so much how to raise a child as it was on how to do a relationship with a child (or anyone for that matter). Maybe you could check into that… a web search maybe. I will try to find it too, if you want me to do so. You most certainly deserve someone you will stand by you nearly 100% of time, not just sometimes. And of course you deserve to stand up for yourself all the time: assertive. David sounds clueless to who or what he is. If I ever get to where I have a very comfortable relationship with myself... when I do, I am surely not going to get seriously involved with someone that thinks so little of the oneself as to call a child fat… no, no, no. The one would not be actively addicted to junk food but if by some impossible way a person mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy were to be eating junk food the one would keep it away from children as they would any drug. Well, I guess I am a little angry with where you got yourself (not forgeting what life can do to ya too)… I so like you… I want better for you, ya know?
