the farmer's wife


share your own story

Dear FRONTLINE

This story of "The Farmer Wife", had a big impact on my life because it had some similiarity. My boyfriend and I have 5 kids between us and we live on some land but we dont farm. Although, if we had the chance we would.

What I got out of show was the hardship of an relationship regardless what occupation you have. My situation is having two families together and trying to make it. We love each other so much that everyone is trying to split us up. We have five children between us. The oldest started lot of problems between Scott and I, so that cause friction between he parents. We are doing everything just to survive. Emotionally we are drained. His parents gave him option either them or me. But I know our love will survive as long we believe in it. I wish you knew the whole story so you can understand why the "The Farmer's Wife" is us.
