I have been with my husband for three and a half years. His divorced with three children 9, 10 and 14 years old.
His youngest children are so sweet loving and caring the eldest one (daughter) is a nasty piece of work.
Hi everyone. I have been lurking around here for a little while. It is nice to know that there are some people in the same place as me in dealing with a spitefull BM. By the way I love that she is called BM because that in my eyes is a bowel movement and very fitting.
Well thankfully the holidays are over..I'm even excited about being back at work actually. Christmas was great as it always is... I love Christmas...but every single year SS 8 creates some sort of Drama. I thought we'd get off free this year as Christmas day came and went without a hitch... he went to his mothers on Boxing Day and then he came to our house for the next week... ah... it was the next week... and I'm officially disengaging. My DH is actually on my side. All this kid does is eat and watch tv.
Why does my SD9 hide in her closet?? Her dad and I have a very nice, quiet home. I know her BM and BF fight all the time...but there is no need for her to hide in her closet at our house.
I've spoken with her about this and she says that she likes to play her DS or listen to music in her closet... I told her NO she cannot sit in her closet, she can sit on her bed or go downstairs is she needs some time to herself....again I found her in the closet just sitting there listening to music...by the way this girl is super smart and very well spoken...
Update we picked up SD on December 27th at 6:00PM...she was a total handful until we dropped her off on January 2, 2011. It was not a great time..she was disrespectful, rude, mean, bossy and just a total brat. What bothers me the most is that SD told us she had a lousy Christmas with her BM & family. She couldnt wait to see us and bam..she is a total brat...what the heck happened?? I'm a a loss for words, she was rolling her eyes at us, smirking and laughing when we were giving her hell about her behaviour..
Seriously what the heck is going on???
Z :?
Our night to have the skids this week was last night (Monday), then not until the weekend. The other day BM asked if we could take them on Wednesday night this week as well. She offered to switch days but we told her that we'd just take them the extra day.
Then yesterday at work, DF found out he had to stay late, and that he would be needing to go into work at 5:30 this morning. So he thought he'd just see if BM had plans and would indeed want to switch with him. She told him that she's not feeling good and would be going to bed right after she got home from work.
I have been lurking on your boards reading your posts and advice to each other and I am very interested in what your opinions for my situation would be.
and all i can think of is how bm might fuck it up.
Im excited and everything and stressed trying to get the last few things sorted but we havent told bm the date we just going to tell her that ss cant be with us on that date.But FDH wants to tell her why but I dont want him to she doesnt have to know right?
Is it so wrong of me to want this part private?
Christmas was chaotic and not really enjoyable. We had all four kids and DH and I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas night at each other's throats, we almost called it quits the morning after Christmas and didn't really get 'back on track' until December 27th. There were several things that contributed to this crappy week.
1) Being broke - DH is still out of work yet we both feel the need to buy the kids more than we can honestly afford to so that they don't feel the pinch.
Crazy biomom has finally been noticed to be crazy by her own biomom. Apparently she has refused visitation of the skids to her just like DH and so she is going to get involved. It's about time someone else noticed the insane amount of mental abuse going on with my little skids at their biomom house. Court is tomorrow. Hopefully we will have a lawyer good enough this time to get everything out on the table. Unfortunately, our attorney even mentioned that this chancery judge doesn't follow rules, or the law.
