Fake-giving still not over
After hosting Thanksgiving for 30, his family & mine, we are now hosting a 2nd Thansgiving for some of my extended family. Just hors d'oeuvres, snacks & pizza. When DH was ordering pizza for the family he asked each of the skids what they wanted. SD16 got chicken tenders, SS10 got pasta & SS11 got his own small pizza. I thought we were doing pizza and home made hore d'oeures cuz to save a little cash over catering.
I can't take it that his kids are more special than anyone and then I blame the kids for being entitled assholes.
The whole Thanksgiving week has been fake. SD16 causes drama everywhere she goes. So excited to leave town for Christmas and get away from the entitlement of them getting their gifts they so righteously deserve.
We will never be a blended family. My parents and fam love DH but they know he needs to put his kids in check.

Oh, Chmmy. Kudos to you for making it through Fakes-giving.
Aholes be aholes. Never
Aholes be aholes. Never changes.
I am SO glad that I have now banned SS from my life 100% - forever. There is nothing that ahole could EVER do to make me even speak to him again.
The best advise I ever
The best advise I ever received was...you can only be bothered by what you allow.
Those words say A LOT!
Who cares what skids eat - not your problem. And if it is the money spent, separate your finances.
Who cares what attitude SD has - walk away and let her father handle her. If directed towards you make it known loudly that it is inappropriate and then walk away. But file that in your 'won't lift a finger for her in the future bank'.
Who cares what dishes are used - don't wash them, just walk away. If they are still there the next day toss them and put 'need dishes' on your fridge list.
Remember that piece of advise :)
Wow
You’re tougher than me! I dared say my SDS 27 and 30 were being inappropriate (not to their precious faces of course, just to DH) and have suffered for that for three years after 11years of marriage!
DH and I have had counselling now and he says he’s changed but I don’t yet believe it.
I didnt say anything
I didnt say anything yesterday with family over but I call out the skids inappropriate behavior constantly.
