Just wanted to say hi :)

Hi I have 4 children i am 41yrs old I have 1 boy and 3 girls. I am a lone parent i do have a boyfriend but he doesn't live with me i was with the childrens father for 17yrs he was abusive and controlling although he wasn't as bad as some. My son no longer lives with me as from the age of 14 he hung around witht he wrong crowd and he went down hill from there it is hard with teenagers i put up with his behaviour until he was 20 though but thought i can no longer accept it with the girls around he isnt a bad lad it is just with drink and drugs he has a problem he is a loving and caring lad to be honest but turns horrible when on drugs or drink. He is quite destructive in the way he acts he takes very serious risks with his health and life, he  doesn't wear an helmet when riding his bike he already had 2 serious accidents one worse he was in hospital for 7 days and 2 ops both to his head knocked himself unconcious for 3days he just stuff without thinking. He doesn't know when to stop drinking either same with drugs he as to do excess he also goes on bouts where he is good but exchanges drugs drinks for serious exercise ie 50mile hikes or bike rides with no money food or water not a good idea. Anyway he is struggling on his own he makes the wrong friends all the time. 

My 3 daughters are 17, 10 and 5 my 17 yr old doesn't drink smoke do drugs she is more of a home bird doesn't really do much she is very artistic she does have a lot of depression though and thinks she is thick i have told her a million times she isn't she is a dreamer like me. My 10yr old she is very oppositional i am dreading her as a teenager she doesn't listen to me she does have learning difficulties at school she is borderline for getting help she is showing a lot of signs of dyslexia she as irlens she didn't read until she was in yr3 she was age 7 she didn't sit her sats as it would make the school look bad she is now due to take her yr6 sats this will show how behind she is that is if they let her sit them again :( she also struggles with maths, she has reflux still had an operation, she is very ocd as to colour match everything and is such a fussy eater things can't touch and tends to eat very dry foods. She did have speech therapy until she was 9yrs old she struggles with a lot of nonverbal even now i can see it oh and she is extrememly anxious. Then i get to my 5yr old she also has reflux she is a screamer everyone knows her name in school and out, she loves attention the more the better couldn't be more different than her 10yr old sister she as to be first she also under speech therapy she didn't speak until she was 3 then it was very unclear until she was 4 then she said a lot of things wrong still does sometimes we have to ask her to repeat a few times she gets so frustrated she is quite intelligent the school have noticed she is likea sponge but they also say her attention span isn't that good, she is always in trouble she lashes out without thinking, she bites kicks hits out i have had to see the teacher quite a few times, she now as a sticker chart along with one other lad in the class she tends to hang out with boys mainly as they are the only ones who can cope with her lol she is very rough and tumble bull in a china shop type of girl even lads can't cope with her at times, she has got a wild imagination she doesn't need kids to play with she can play happily for hours and hours on her own in her imagination, her teacher as already noted this, she is obviously good at acting already had lead part well for one of the days as she had to be took off as she was being naughty on the stage and hitting kids in front of people i have it on  film and irritating kids she was mary such an angel lol. She is the class clown she likes to make people laugh always having people on all the time she is funny. She didn't sleep until she was 4 and half years old i am so glad she does now when she was younger i was like a zombie it was horrible.
