It matters to my kids that I'm there for most of their events, so yes, I think it would affect our relationship if I stopped going.

There is a HUGE difference between pushing our buttons and abuse. My kids have never pushed my buttons enough to even come close to being abused.

Maybe it is just a word you use loosely but IMO only, it is not even something to joke about.

5 bedroom house (minus the two-car garage), 2 1/2 bath plus a large family room. If we had to sell it in today's market, we would probably get about $260,000 or so for it


Wow.

In the area she lives in, and I believe I know the exact town, housing is still pretty affordable for CT. Which is nice because you get alot of bang for your buck in her town and it is quite lovely.

LOL, I hear you. It is lucky for me that dd never took up a team sport. Sitting through games would have made me extremely unhappy, I detest it that much.
