My name is Krissy. I am 37.I have made my share of mistakes in life but I am in a very happy place now. My story in long. I had a rough childhood with the divorce of my parents at age 8, sexual abuse by a family friend, and growing up witnessing alcoholism. It is a very selfish disease. I struggle with depression, ADD, and a mood disorder. I've been through failed relationships and went through a terrible second marriage of complete betrayal. I am currently going through a terrible custody battle. My kids are Kylie & Logan, & stepson Bill. I am now married to the love of my life. God sent him to me. We have a great life! I love my children beyond reckoning.
My interests:
Cooking, photography, reading, my family, volunteering, little league baseball, travel, and working with special needs children.
How I de-stress:
Soaking in a bath with a good book. Taking a short weekend trip with my husband.
Best advice I've gotten:
Listen to your children. They want to be heard. Sometimes as parents we worry more about telling them what to do and not do. Listen! And try to pick your battles. Most things aren't that big of a deal. Be happy & love alot!

That is unacceptable. You and your husband need to see a family therapist before it puts a completely wedge between the two of you. It also isn't fair...
