Nonsense. You thrive on it here.

Got to be some interesting stories behind this.

Maybe.
I'm decent at stiring things up.
Before I do that though, you & yours are hanging in OK?

Temujin you seem like a no non-sense poster.

Meh, enough of that going around this place.

Raising kids is always an adventure. You?

I haven't had that adventure.
My neighbor/best friend has recently lost his wife. There is now a 5 year old girl who considers me her bestest friend; but I assume, you know how how difficult situations like this are. I bought her a Wi for Christmas.
What do you think is the next best move?

Wow, I really don't know anything about a situation like that. Has to be terribly tough on your neighbor and the little girl.

To surpass the Wii? Um...an iPod Touch?
Posted on 2/12/11 at 12:13 am to CollegeFBRules
I'm not trying to surpass the Wii.
I'm trying to help my friend, and most importantly, Bailey.
How do I do that?
I've seen you here before; you're struggling too. What's the best way for me to do the right way in a weird situation?

Make sure her Kindergarten teachers watch out for any bullies teasing her about her mom?
Maybe part-time coach the sports team she's on?
Just help out in the partnership that your friend is missing.

talk to your friend and tell them you are there to help them both. if you need additional advice, consult a licensed family/child psychologist and not td.com.

Thank you both.
I'm giggling a little at how you both jumped in to help. You two are absolutely opposites, yet y'all both got involved. Who'd have imagined?
OK, here's the deal, Bailey's mom died recently. She was 41. Bailey's mom was fine with me. Dad & my younger brother are best friends, high school buddies. We're tied together because of their friendship and my brother is a career marine. I did my time in the Corps also.
Now, Bailey's mom is gone.
Bailey sees me as one of her best friends.
I want to do the right thing. I am dying to do the right thing.
What's the right thing?

you have the ability to place value judgments on posters you have never met based on what they post on a message board and lack any insight on one person you've known most of your life and a child you have known her entire life?
i'm not qualified to help you. i could say your struggles seem to be your own. but like i said, i am not qualified.
go to talk a clergy, your VA shrink, anybody that knows about grief counseling.
if you don't have access to any of those, I'd ask either Redneck or Cody. but that's just me.

we are human and someone wanting to help a child is of universal goodwill.
From the standpoint of what's missing in her life is someone to take care of her in a two parent setting. Not sure of the Dad's work schedule, but making dinner and bringing it over, so that he doesn't get overwhelmed with all the added responsibilities he has to take care of. Does she need rides to after school Piano, ballet lessons or something? Basically try assisting with what the mother use to do.(sans bedroom, sorry had to say it in case someone jumped in with a snide remark)
cool idea, is to grab the laundry and take it to a wash&fold service, cost like $8/load, but it will be appreciated as the little girl might want to wear something that the Dad hasn't cleaned yet, and it starts the whole "I wish mommy were here" episode.

unless CollegeFBRules is a short black/italian guy that lives on Gov't assistance, I don't see how we can be total opposites.

Make a thread on OT.. this would get attention.

Now that this thread has been hijacked, I wish Otto would post and at least respond to get it back on track.
