My dad has another family in a foreign country. What do you think can be done?
1. the family over there (my four half brothers) have always threatened to hurt my mom once they got here. My pop’s is now bringing them over after many years
2. My parents won’t divorce primarily because my mom doesn’t want to. She’s a career woman and has been very very successful. She doesn’t want to give half of their belongings because my dad would take a lot of what she’s earned away and give it to his sons. She’s all about money.
3. I want to move on with my own career, but if I were to leave, my dad would hand them the keys to operating one of our profitable family businesses. I want to improve the business, let it stand on its own.
Any attempt to communicate with my “half brothers” have been futile. They hate this side of the family because we are in the states and all my life, they’ve never written. It seems like they just want to take my dad and his money. They know of his relative success. I have been to this country and it is full of money mongrols. I can’t convince my dad of this and there are those in the family who support him on supporting his children. I partially agree, but don’t know how to go about this. My dad, cannot return because he got out in the first place due to political problems.
Suggestions? I’m tired of the family drama and just want to move on with my own life.
Oh, the only person they talk to is my dad. They tell them they are all miserable and just ask for money. He sends it, and the currency exchange goes far, so I know that they are fine. They don’t work, they just go out to cock fights. I work nearly everyday in the family biz and get nowhere near the respect he gives them.

Why do women who have career ambitions but also want children shy away from the obvious solution?
amiram how about putting money on the side to get through pregnancy and maybe the early months you genius ? Beside you want it all again so both work and after the children looks who ?
“Spoon” it isnt about ambition. Lets say you are a college educated girl making 3000/month on your way up your hubby is a “do you want fries with that ? ” making 1000 something a month for the rest of his life. I dont think there will be much of a discussion. There are plenty of low earning men for women to choose from so love shouldnt be the issue eithier.
KA my son gets what he wants to play with the way I get what I want to play with. Sadly women will just have to take the risk and find out afterwards if they married a trip to divorce or if they married a dedicated husband which properly takes care of the house and children, just like men do. You do not want to marry “less” because you do not want to risk loosing your children and money ? Then its only fair you eitheir kiss your career or having children goodbye.
No Rio it does not work like that. If both do both both have to compromise their career and the few spots higher up the carreer ladder will eithier be taken by people who are childless or by people who have a spouse who holds his/her back free. Who comrpomises cant give as much as somone who doesnt.
Family & Relationship?
(which I am ignoring, they’re not in my name and not my responsibilty) and just left me with no home.My bro is up for his easter break and is staying with mates, my dad wont help him either. Me and my partner spoke about meeting and catching up with him, to which he agreed. So last night I arranged with my bro for him, me and my partner to go out for tea tonight. And then to meet and for him to walk the dog with us on sunday. Now my partner has thrown a fit saying why should he bother? I said if he didnt want to go then fine, but that I’d still meet up with my bro. Too which I got ‘why should you bother after what they done?’ it caused a huge row! I feel that I cant change whats happened and that my family are still my family though theyre not perfect but I accept that. and that I wouldnt hold anything against his family should it have been the other way round. I dont want to have arguments every time I wish to see my bro or mum, but feel he wants me to choose between him or them,
why should I? I think relationships have to work along side each others families. What do you think?
Jacky – I would do it for his family. I accept them as much as I accept him. I am hurt that he doesn’t try to understand this. I understand familys arent simple and that sometimes things happen that you cant help with families, you have to learn with it. I feel life’s to short to hold grudges, and like I said I wouldnt be like this with him if it was the other way round. Why? Why do I feel so much compassion and care for others, but put my own feelings last, and more so now, why should I? I had this with my ex too, he hated my family and I hardly saw them in 8 years, I dont want a repeat. They mean more than just that. They’re my family.
Denise hun, He hasnt sacrifriced anything. I wouldnt want him to and certainly wouldnt ask. I would like to be able to put whats happened behind us all and move on. How can I do this if he wont let it happen? otherwise this would go on forever.
Wealthy single parent (man or woman) vs two poor parents: Which would be the better parents? Why?
It made me curious, since fianances and money are so important in our culture, which do you think would be the better parent, a single wealthy parent (male or female) or two poor parents? Why?
Would it make any difference to you if the single parent was a man or woman?
