Quote: Little boys love their mommy's in very special, very unique ways.
This is very true. I am so in love with my S4, and he can be incredibly sweet to me. I don't think you can do too much damage because their "boyness" will come out no matter what you do. However, if you get him calling his underwear "panties" he'll surely be ridiculed by other kids!
My S4 (almost 5) is pretty boyish and loves cars, sticks, mud and riding things, but he also loves cooking (real and pretend), reading, and apparently dressing up in heels and a purse at daycare! (he had us all rolling at thanksgiving, seriously discussing his problems with some of the purses that have latches "with the little balls", and how he could only wear the heels when he wore his velcro sneakers to daycare)
Has your L discussed your chances at alimony, and for how long you might get it? My L said that here in MD, it was usually only granted short term, until you can get to be self supporting, and also that it wasn't generally given when you've only been married a few years. She said I could have a chance since my salary is about 75% of H's, but my salary alone is pretty good. I didn't think it was worth it to pursue because I knew H would fight it, and it was pretty low on my list of things worth fighting about.
PS: in answer to your earlier question, nothing really new in my sitch, but I think I'm finally almost ready to give up on H. Sadly, and reluctantly, I must accept that my belief that he's a better person than this was wrong. In happier news, we're picking up our new adopted puppy tomorrow! (a 6 mo. golden retriever mix of some kind). I had to euthanize my oldest dog in October, and now need a new emergency backup dog since the last one got promoted when the old guy died.
