March 2010 - Ask me anything?
"MY MOTHER-IN-LAW IS DRIVING ME MAD" My mother-in-law always undermines my authority and questions my judgement. My husband's attitude is, "Don't let her get to you." Recently she upset my son, who failed the eleven-plus, by saying he could have gone to university if he had gone to a grammar school. We know he will have job satisfaction in his chosen trade but my mo... Read more

February 2010 - Ask me anything?
"What happened to the man I married?" My husband and I dated for a couple of years and then two years ago we decided to get married. Before we were so happy together - he was always affectionate and showered me with compliments - but as soon as we got married that all seemed to change. I suppose my ideas that how we felt about each other would last until we grew old together were a bit... Read more

January 2010 - Ask me anything?
"We're so ashamed of our son" Please help me as we don't know where to turn. Our son, who has always been a credit to us, is facing a charge of assault. It all happened during a night out for a friend's 18th birthday and he says he was defending himself against a gang who attacked his friends for no reason. However, they had all had too much to drink and that has shocked ... Read more

December 2009 - Ask me anything?
"My son's grief is destroying him" My husband died a few months ago and, since then, my son seems to have retreated into a shell. They had always had quite a difficult relationship but in recent years, as my husband's health deteriorated, I thought things had improved. My son found it hard seeing his dad like that and, after he died, he said he was glad that his suffering was... Read more

November 2009 - Ask me anything?
"I can't hold down a job" I am 32 years of age and have lost practically every job that I have worked in and my relationship is at breaking point as a result of my being unable to find suitable employment. I left school with barely any qualifications and hate to admit I'm still living with my parents. My girlfriend and I would love to move in together but right now it doesn'... Read more

October 2009 - Ask me anything?
" I want to fall in love" I have just come out of a five-year relationship, and before that I was in a relationship for 19 years. When the last woman left me she said, "You're only upset because your comfort zone has gone." Both times it was the women ending it but, if I'm honest, I really wasn't that bothered so why am I upset now? Someone once told me that I hav... Read more

September 2009 - Ask me anything
"I can't help my daughter through her distress" My 17-year-old daughter told me that, when she was 13, my friend's husband abused her. I reported it to the police and they found two other victims. Nearly two years later my daughter was told by the CPS that they would have to drop her charges as they had plea bargained for the man to plead guilty to the other charges. We were de... Read more

"Will dyspraxia hold my son back?" My seven-year-old son has always struggled at school. He's not naughty, but has trouble paying attention and writing. Now he has been diagnosed with dyspraxia. I've never heard of it and we are devastated. We have an appointment to see someone arranged by the school but I'm finding it hard to stay cheerful. My husband says it will be f... Read more

"I don't want my sister to date a con" My sister and her two children are living with me after she left an abusive relationship. We've all been encouraging her to enjoy life again but she has become a bit of a hermit. Now she's struck up a pen-pal friendship with a man in prison for aggravated burglary. They write regularly and she's started talking about going to mee... Read more

June 2009 - Ask me anything
"My friend won't repay the money she owes me" We're not rich but we manage our money well and save up for things. Last year one of my oldest friends asked for a short-term loan to see her out of a difficulty, which I gave her without hesitation. For weeks I didn't mention it but eventually I asked when I might be repaid. She said she'd come back to me but then started... Read more
