Well after a day of sleeping in split shifts so I could assist in carrying laundry to a relatives.... I went to my third shift job and had a not too physical, yet back aching type of night. Then on the forty five minute walk home in thirty degree weather I was comforted with all the thoughts any fortunate man would have in that prediciment. Clean home, food prepared, mother and child getting ready for there day. Well I am a man of no such fortune. I walk in, cold, of course, to the sounds of a screaming baby and balrring tv. The mother is stuck to pile of drool on the pillow, android charging and at the ready in case she has to post a ficticious journal at moments notice. I stepp in a half eaten grilled cheese, house is in shambles, and no food. Apparently her time was better spent being on this very site until three in the morning posting surveys insiuating a single mother hard at work, who owns a gun. I try to call her on this bullshit only to discover I am blocked. I became angry, threw my own phone across the room, only it was plugged in and tethered back to strike her where she still slept. For that I felt bad, but I digress, so I then bleached the house on my hands and knees after giving the lil one a bite to eat. Scrubbed every inch. Oh to be loved.
How do u help someone who's is addicted to the internet?
Seriously, no trah talking or being an asshole..but if u have a loved one who spends in excess of 14 hours a day online, and not for anything beneficial, like to pursue a career or any type of education, but to live a fantasy life on social networks, how do u help them? My first instinct is anger and agression, taking devices, cutting chargers, but recently I realized that what I'm dealing with isn't just somebody who is lazy, neglegant, but someone who has a severe problem and needs help. Only problem is this person cites boredem, says she's not alowed to do anything, but can't say anything she wants to do. Many excuses as to why. She lies constantly abolut the net. Leading me to believe she's cheating etc. she pays very little attention to our daughter while online. Its. A real problem. What do I do?
