SD is getting kicked out of camp

Diabetes camp at that. She has been there two whole days and is being an asshole so it looks like she needs to be picked up tomorrow.

And FDH doesn't understand this. Omg. BM is out of town until Friday morning. So I guess I'm stuck with her ass while I work here Thursday. I am so pissed!

When will they realize this kid needs serious help. This is almost as bad as being asked to leave cancer camp. WTF????

Good idea. You can send her to camp onefoot.

My SO's retired military, he was a TAC officer in Officer Candidate School. And from the way he talks, he was a real badass back then, didn't take shit from anyone. Not so much with wittle SS16, though. But with girls, man, he's tough! He was real tough on his older daughters.

Just wait until I leave town, SO can have her all to himself. Wink

Oh, boy. What doesn't your DH understand, is what I'm thinking. My ex-bf's son was getting complaints from his teachers several times a week, due to his ADHD and he smelled. But ex-bf never acted like he didn't understand, he even said he was embarrassed, he was just too lazy to do anything about it.

FDH: " I don't understand. She loved it last year".
Me: "well, this year she didn't even go to school for six months and last year age didn't flip you off in your camp photo you took of her and posted on Facebook without noticing"

Okay, I see. "I don't understand," in this case means "I'm in denial so I'm going to be surprised at her behavior problems. Gee I just didn't see this coming." I feel bad for your DH, but I feel worse for you, this is so unfair to you.

If it were me, I'd probably insist my SO take a couple of days off to deal with his child. If he refused, I'd leave town to force him to watch his own kid. But he probably would grudgingly take off work, because I put my foot down so hard on this issue. This is one area where I become a total B, I refuse be responsible for SS, even if it means SS' grandparents have to drive 1000 miles to stay with him while SO is out of town on business. And my SS isn't all that bad. I'm certain I pissed off grandparents, and at first pissed off SO, but he eventually understood.

If your SD is so difficult, people outside your family can't handle her, and DH is too busy at work to deal with her, then you certainly shouldn't be expected to stay with her while you're trying to work. And of course BM is out of town.

I know in the end you'll have to endure her, but I remember how much this affects your emotional well-being and that makes me angry. I think soon the stress is going to become overwhelming and might even start to make you physically ill. This is too extreme and beyond what any SM should put up with.

Thank you so much for your support. And yes, you nailed it. He's playing ostrich. It never ends.

I left last week for a night when she was here causing problems. He just went to work anyway and left her here. He came home very early from work (3 pm). She was still asleep. So if I leave, there is no impact to either one and gives him greater Disney Dad lisence. This should be a wake up call but nope.

BTW. I am writing quickly on my phone since he's here and hovering a bit. More discussion tomorrow when he's away driving to pick up the precious princess from camp.
