"Don't walk like that!!" "YES! Walk like that!" 😂😂😂😂

Laura. When you say him being there is important to you is that because it makes you feel less guilty for breaking up the family? Because you didn’t do that. If you don’t want to blame Steven just understand these things happen. What your kids need is a happy healthy mommy. Not a stressed guilt ridden one and it sounds like from the things Steven is saying? He’s happy to keep you in that place. It would be really good if you could go on a retreat alone without UA-cam and spend alone time and then see your therapist to discuss your thoughts. Life is not a rehearsal ❤

Idk laura. I think you have your priorities wrong girl. But that’s mo. Happiness and health first xx that’s the example to set for your kids

Laura have you thought about family therapy? Just you and the kids?

Firstly thankyoy for being so open and honest. The inventory on fear and resentment and anger was very relatable and helpful. I can only imagine how more difficult a seperation or divorce is when it's public and everyone can weigh in. I think you're a brilliant Mum and your doing a fantastic job. I think that having Stephen in your life and the children's has helped him a great deal as well. I think you're children are really happy to be able to see both parents regularly. None of us can truly say what your relationship should be or look like as relationships are between the people in them and they grow and change and evolve always. I think that it isn't necessarily a bad thing that Stephen wanted Poppy to ask you to explain why you're seperated. He isn't saying anything negative to them and honestly you are better with words. He also may not want to contradict anything you have said already. I know it could be viewed negatively but as your daughter is three that sounds like he's trying to protect her rather than manipulate her. I know that daily things are said in every relationship that can be viewed through a positive or negative lens and only you know what intent was behind what was said. Please know that you're loved/admired and respected. You're a great comedian you're also a brilliant educator and sharing all that you do is greatly appreciated always. Keep being the beautiful person you are and keep walking and eating well😘

“Maybe it’s not that deep”

😂😂😂

ITS GOOOODOODDDDD

I have 4 kids, my oldest is on the spectrum (17) and will still sleep in my bed. My 14 yo grew out of it when she was 10. My younger two 9 and 8 (also on the spectrum) still sleep in bed with me or living room with dad( he sleeps in his recliner for his back and breathing) I love cuddling with them. When they were babies it made sleep so much better. It doesn’t work for everyone but did for us.

Ive always been a single mom. 3 kids, one is severely Autistic. I have no help at all. I work during school hours because i have no help. There are times where i had 2 jobs. 1st and then 3rd shift plus college. It was alot. Im chronically stressed, single and broke. I feel like my life is a circus and who would want to date a mom in my situation. I cry myself to sleep alot. My occassional iced coffee and fake nails are about all i do for myself.

Bottom line is Laura you are responsible for Stephen over stepping boundaries, you allow it and the kids are suffering and will continue to suffer. We all see it. Grow up and be the parent the kids need as a role model. Stephen is a complete train wreck.

Remember-it takes 2 to make a relationship work. It only takes 1 to burn it to the ground. Stephen is being abusive. He has been abusive from the start. You NEVER put that shit on your kids. You play the "go ask your mom" game when they ask if they can have a popsicle. Not why their parents don't live together. That trash is also what leads to parental alienation. I have a 23 year old I have almost no relationship with because of her other parent drilling comments like that into her head for YEARS!! I hate seeing this happening to others and not being able to help. Looks like there are many of us that are/have been in your situation. You may get along ok, but he's manipulating you and the children. Poppy is only 3 and he's started in already. Please get into therapy if you aren't already. Keep very detailed records of all of these things. You WILL need to have those records, unfortunately. Gawd, get to therapy, now. Love you.

They say choose your hard. When I asked my mom if she ever wanted out of marriage with my dad, My mom said she would rather be miserable with him than without him. 30+years together before she died. I've only been married 15 years and it's the most wonderful and super hard thing I've ever done.😂 If hubby dies, I never want to get married again.

The little git sent me 😂

Reading these comments oh my god 😅 I'm too scared to enter another relationship. I dont want to get hurt again.

So many, but the biggest was very early on I found out his best friend had beat his baby mama, almost unalived her, and my ex still sided with the abuser and mentioned how the bm was "mouthy" and a "bitch". How shocking that my ex turned out to be abusive 😂

He's right

Hubby’s drinking

So damn true! 😂😂😂 I love my 3 sons & I wish someone had told me to savor every single moment with them. I have learned to savor every single one now with my daughter, but I'd be lying if I said I savor her pissy whiney moments! 😂😂😂🙄 Some days there's a lock on the bathroom for a reason! lol

Hilarious & true.

Laura, I am going through a divorce right now. It will be finalized in August. I am going through what you are talking about, moving into a new place, my son has to switch schools. It’s very stressful and scary. You will get through this. You’re strong. I will get through it too. ❤ Hang in there. Praying for you.

Love you Laura ❤ all the things you said about co-sleeping being natural and sleep depriving. I call being squished between my two boys being a mom sandwich. No I don’t think it is natural for one parent to have to do all the things, it’s not possible to do everything well and I think our society is very broken. It’s lonely and shouldn’t be this way. I wish we could all have kids with our forever partners out of the gate, but it’s not possible for some of us. I see you and I see the pain in your eyes. Keep going, you are loved

❤

You could put little Braley under blue floral top!

He is right.

lol but it is so true. You’ll know soon enough, what everyone is talking about. ❤

I feel ya 🥴

I'm a stranger with a window into your life, so my thoughts and opinions are ultimately inconsequential, but....I've ridden the "co-parenting in close proximity post divorce rodeo" and it is definitely not for the feint of heart. I don't envy you right now. We lasted a few months. It was great for a little while, almost like we were better parents and people then when we were married. In some ways, we tried harder and that seemed good for the kids. But I can honestly say that I regret many parts of it. I couldn't heal from the pain of the divorce with him so close, and neither could he. It was my decision to leave, but looking back, I didn't really leave until I drew those permanent boundaries: this is your space, this is mine. The kids are allowed in both spaces but we are not going to be a whole family unit in either space. You create separate lives with your kids in each space and try to communicate as much as possible to be on the same page, but that means you get that breathing room to heal and start practicing distance. That is the reality of divorce that they are going to have to adapt to. Distance from what was. Prolonging it can complicate things for them. Just speaking from experience here. And yes, Stephen saying "ask your mother"...ooof. Call him on it. Divorce and marriage is a two person show. Blame is irrelevant unless you want to start dragging each other through the dirt in front of your kids. I have been 100% honest with my kids when they've asked BUT, only at a time when I knew they were ready to process the information. Right now, they have two loving parents who are caring for them as best they can post marriage. That's all they need to know. Difficult questions like that can simply be answered by saying, "...because we are not married anymore and this is how we are choosing to be your mommy and daddy right now..." But that question (and his answer), to me, signal it's not working anymore and could further complicate things for them and YOU. Adjust your situation as needed and don't worry about not being perfect at divorce! ❤

You do nothing but moan and complain it's just getting so unabreable

Manon is a beauty.

The cutest video bomber ever

There is such a thing as being way to skinny. Skeleton like.

Ok your a grown ass woman some things you just gotta figure out on your own people are NOTalways gonna be there for you Laura sits been that way for years sometimes they are but instead of taking others advice it’s best to simply figure out wat you gotta do all on your own WITHOUT ASKING EVERYONE your a big girl now you can do it 😘👍🏻

so unfair 2 say ask ur mum 😢 u shudnt feel ashamed or guilt for doing what is right for u & the kids

I can completely relate. I lmao when your eye twitches because my eye literally twitches when I hear my son start getting upset 😂. Streeeeess

😂😂😂😂 but it really does go by so fast

How about get off social media!!?! Clearly it’s not longer a good fit.

What do the real single Moms think? Like Laura do you have the large support system? A nanny?! lol give me a break. Laura’s not a single mom. Smh

Where are the real Single Moms? Laura’s not a single mom. Single due to divorce there’s a HUGE difference.

Single moms don’t have supportive conparents or nanny. You’re NOT a single mom.

Lol this is my first time hearing about ice baths too funny

You don't have to be funny all the time. Just be yourself and share your real feelings. You can't even imagine how many people you're helping and encouraging.

Social media is definitely feeding into mental health issues, but it has also became vogue that you have anxiety depression or ADHD

Give yourself some grace, this is still all new territory for you. Focus on you and the kids, which it sounds like you do a very fine job of that. However, keep in mind you cannot pour from an empty cup. My divorce was finalized just May 31st. We have an 8 year old son together. I should have left 4 years ago, but that's a whole other story. But, please take it from me. Get your rest! If you aren't sleeping you are opening yourself up to alot of horrible things that can happen. Please take it from me. I don't want to share personal experience, but send the kids to dad's or if you have someone else who watches them, take a nap. 20 mins counts..anything even once a week. It makes a difference and will protect your mind and body. Much love to you, momma. You are doing a great job, keep that shit up❤

You're not alone, so many of us mom's are going through the same experience. Sending big hugs

I have done this with all 3 of my kids, I think it depends on your child and you do what you need to get some rest. My oldest(daughter) has ADHD and my 2 boys have ADHD and autism so I was stuck.

I have some advice for you Laura. I have 3 kids and my life did not go the way that I thought it would so I had a lot of your feelings. First of all I think you’re angry because you assume things are not going the right way! And what is the right way? It’s just the way it is. Suffering comes from not accepting things the way they are and expecting them to be any different. You walks are wonderful, you actually should double down on them, it will take away a lot of the negative energies, it gives you energy, aso But please stop feeling the guilt. It could not have gone any different, you took the best decision you could take. The reason you are angry you not doing everything around the house is because you think you’re missing out on something by not being married and by having split your family and you’re not missing out on anything, you removed someone who was causing you harm. The second reason is that Stephen is manipulating you so much by pointing at those things that are broken etc insinuating that you 2 should be married, like look what you did, it’s all your fault, don’t fall in that trap!!! You feeling guilty is the worst thing you can give your children. Don’t! Be assured you took the best decision and focus on your emotional wellbeing and the emotional wellbeing of your children as a single mom (non wanting to be married or to be in another situation)

🤣😂😅😂🤣✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼 Yes Laura!!

It’s true though! lol

She posted this already this is the 2nd time
