We have known each other for a couple of years, but recently acknowledged that we like each other romantically. All our other family and friends do not see what the issue is and are very supportive. However, our children say the situation is “weird and unusual”, they will not “ever accept it” etc. They are doing everything possible to end our relationship. They are getting married this year and I think a lot of it is based on what other people will think.

We have reassured them that we will not embarrass them in any way.

The West Bloomfield mom of nine (seven of her own plus two stepsons) cringes about how many men her husband’s ex has traipsed through.

He is a classic know-it-all, and regularly changes the subject mid-conversation to tell random stories about himself. The best driver, best at talking to people, best handyman, etc. However, I have an month-old and my sister has an 8-month-old. My sister hates it, but she handles it better. My husband cannot stand it either. Is it wrong to want him no longer referred to as Grandpa?
