Two months ago my thirteen-year-old daughter revealed to my sister-in-law that my husband (her stepfather) had been sexually abusing her. This is affecting me because my daughter’s father wants to report my husband to the police, but I chose to forgive my husband instead. My husband is very sorry, and he has given his heart [...]
Five months ago I started living with my new boyfriend, and we can’t seem to agree on how to rear his daughter and my son who are four and five years old. Sometimes, when my boyfriend plays with my son, he treats him very roughly... to the point of making him cry. He’s not like [...]
My stepson doesn’t get along with our son, though they both have the same father. My stepson constantly tells his brother that he doesn’t want to play with him, to get away from him.... He even went to the extreme of telling him that he wished him dead so that he could be an only [...]
I am thirty and have three daughters. Five years ago, I got together with my current boyfriend, and we had my youngest daughter. My first two daughters are not his biologically, and I have noticed that he doesn’t love them. He fights with them all the time. They stay in their room because he treats [...]
I have a lot of guilt pent up inside me, and I need God’s forgiveness. I married a beautiful woman who already had a daughter.

I just got married, and my husband and I are having problems. I know that it is normal to have problems in marriage, but what hurts me the most is that one of the problems is my twelve-year-old son. My husband is not my son’s father, because when we first met I was a single [...]
After finding out that my mom had hidden from me that the man who raised me was not my biological father, my parents forbade me from looking for him. I feel that I need to know him, for I have never felt that I had a father. My sister doesn’t love me because I have [...]
I met my wife twelve years ago. She had a seven-month-old daughter. The biological father of her daughter had abandoned them.... He had even told my wife, when she was pregnant, that she would have to abort the baby if she wanted to stay with him. I came into her life and offered my help. [...]
I am a twenty-nine-year-old man. Two years ago, I met a single mother (with one daughter) who was twenty-five. We were in a romantic relationship for nine months, but since my family was against it, I broke it up after nine months. She was devastated, and I had no contact with her for the next [...]
