Let's discuss this response

Jesus, Mary and Joseph! You are seriously the most naive little girl I have ever come across. Let me tell you a story.
I got married at 18. He was 21. Things were GREAT for about a year. Then I got pregnant and had a baby. And he went out all the time and I was stuck at home with a colicky baby who never slept while he was cheating on me and never talking to me. And then he hit me. And I stayed with him because I had no back up plan.
And so here I am, en route to divorce (and guess what, I didn't believe in divorce either) and trying to keep my kid from growing up with his douchebag father. I'm also going to school, working full time, and *gasp* my house is clean!
Learn to be your own person. You never know what the future will bring or what you'll have to deal with.

Yea, I saw her respond.
I wonder if she got her son back.
And, wasn't that the other girl who used to post on here and the board blew up because people contacted her deployed H? I know that she had a different sn, of course, and her son's name is Wyatt.
I'll go first. LYING LIAR WHO LIES!!!
Of course your house is clean. You let your H take your kid out of the state and sat on your ass for a straight month not knowing where he was, when he was coming back, or making much of an effort to get him back.
You have no business giving advice to hookers on the point, my dear.
So did you get your child back? Or was step one in being your own person shrugging off the responsibilites of raising your child and letting his abusive father take care of him instead?

OMG!! ::Lightbulb::
Everything adds up, although I never saw her son's name. Wow.
Holy crap! I would be staying away from the nest forever since that crap though, I would be too scared to post.
How did I shrug off my responsibilities? I'm pretty sure that I have been trying to get him back since he left, you just didn't want to hear that.
I'm actually in the perfect place to give advice on the matter, because I'M GOING THROUGH IT! And that's it. I'm done with this post.
was that HM3?

Oh really? Three weeks went by before you figured out where your kid was and only after a MESSAGE BOARD suggested you call his damned job, yes or no?
So by all means, explain to me how exactly you were trying to get him back? By drinking and having fun between the occasional phone call to the cops' nonemergency line?
You aren't going through it because you were young, idealistic, and so much in luuuuuuurve. You're going through what you are because you're a lazy, useless twat who tells stories designed to place yourself in the best light. This chick might be a grade A moron but I doubt she'll have half the problems you do even if her H does turn out to be a douchetwat she ought to leave.

FAIL
Privacy? As in an easy way to try and hide from your well documented douchery?
WHERE IS YOUR BABY?

Just get off and stay off TN. Seriously. Talk to people off board, IRL. Whatever. Just stay off TN. People are always going to figure out who you are and f with you. Every single time.
Good luck though.
Girl, quit making new SNs thinking you are maintaining your "privacy". These are national, hell, international, OPEN message boards, no secret handshake required. And you can't afford an attorney? I thought you had some trust fund or pot of magic money. Hire a lawyer and get your son back. For real. Wow.
TN is full of crazy today. Me likey.
