I am 33 years old. I am a mother of 4 children. My first 3 children are from a previous marriage and my youngest is from my second marriage. I have 3 girls and a boy. Unfortunately my son was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD a couple of years ago.
I'm from the Philippines but living in Canada now for the past 21 years and my life hasn't been exactly a walk in the park. My parents separated when I was born. I was molested twice by my grandmothers maids husband when I was 8 and 10 years old and when I finally said something the second time around nothing was done about it. My previous marriage was mentally and physically abusive I left after 11 years and the only thing good came out of it is my 3 wonderful children. They've been through so much. My two girls were molested by my ex husbands father and my son was always pushed away by him. They were treated like robots and got hit by his belt.
Things are so much better now, I got really lucky to find a single man who committed to a woman with 3 children. I met him 5 years ago and we got married in 2004. He treats me so good that I didn't even know that that's how a wife, woman and a mother should be treated. He respects and accept me for who I am. The only problem is his having a tough time trying to deal with my son and it's upsetting me because I love them both. We have been dealing with this issue for the past 4 years and I'm getting tired. I am probably boring everyone to death but this is a short version of my life story.
