Countdown to graduation Is SD going to make it?

Sd, age17,  should graduate at the end of May.  If she graduates child support will end.  

I was looking at the CO a few months back and reminded DH about it.  I wished I would have kept my mouth shut.  DH tells SD.  Of course, SD has started DRAMA.  

1.  She claimed she was pregnant.  She had DH worried for a bit but as usual, it was a BIG lie that had zero consequences.

2.  She claimed she was expelled for the remainder of the year from school because another kid threatened her and she told the other kid she was going to call the police.  YEAH...RIGHT.  There is a lot more to this story than I care to know.

3. She is in constant trouble at school.  She doesn't go to the public high school.  She can't handle it or let's be honest the school doesn't want her there do to her behavior.  She goes to a private smaller school for problem kids.

4. The school has now decided because of her behavior that she just needs to go half day to school until HOPEFULLY, she graduates in May.  If she doesn't behave, she doesn't graduate and gets kicked out for the remainder of the year.

5. She has already been suspended from school SO many times.  Every single year since she has been in 2nd or 3rd grade there are constant suspensions from school.

 

I know the constant drama for her will NEVER end.  I have learned to live with it.  She lies so much. I just can't wait until she becomes the "legal" adult.  

Hopefully, she can behave herself for a little over 3 months.  I doubt that she can.  It is wishful thinking I am hoping the school doesn't want her back next year and will pass her anyways to get her out.

Maybe the school will just push her through to be done with her! Here's hoping anyway!!

I think in this instance the school is going to do what they can to either graduate her or pass her onto a continuation school or something.

Why would your DH mention anything to SD? What a doofus.

My SD was 2 years behind in school but got pregnant at 17 and quit school and got married at 18 so that emancipated her.

skids, the dad thinks he is forcing his kid to mature and launch by saying cs will end a d you’re on your own in the real world or daddy bought a home with stepmummy (inheritance gone) and since you’ve graduated uni and been in full time employment for nearly a year i will only continue the monthly allowance for another year and you are on your own (as in the case of my husband), what happens is the usually absent skid suddenly has time for daddy to manipulate him and make him think she cares but that act can’t be kept up for long.

remember its hard work and alot of these skids are lazy manipulative self centred that they want the world without putting much effort into doing anything (basically everything handed on a silver platter)
