SD called yesterday

DH hasn't really heard much from her.   She is graduating.  She has her cap and gown.  She will graduate on May 31. NO MORE CHILD SUPPORT....YES.

She called dh and she wanted him to give her $100.00.  The last 3 times she has called it is because she wants money.  Twice $20 and now $100.

She had this pleasant attitude when she asked for the $100.00 and then she starts explaining why she needs the money.  She started becoming defensive.  DH had not said one thing if he was going to give her money or not.  She wants to buy a new phone and new phone plan.She no longer has a job.  She started telling him how she really wants to talk to him while she is staying at the dorm. Of course, the way she is talking to him right now using wifi just will not work. She needs to talk to her college without the college having BM's phone number.  She is planning on getting a job to pay for the phone but she needs a phone FIRST so she can get an interview.  She had such a sob story.  BM told her that she wasn't going to pay for her a phone. Bm told her she would and now she want. SD must have stayed awake at night practicing her speech. DH agrees to give her the $100 but told her that  the money would be her graduation gift.  He was going to get her something else too but he didn't tell her.  SD's attitude changed.  She went from being defensive trying to explain her reasons to being  really disappointed. She then tells DH that at least someone loves her and cares more about her than her M'Fing mother who has custody of her.  I hope that comment didn't make DH feel all warm and cozy inside.  I wanted so much to just tell SD what I thought about that comment.  She only said it to blackmail DH into doing what she wanted.  She used it as icing on her cake.

She called at 3:30 and wanted DH to pick her up and take her to the phone store before 5.00.  DH rushes to pick her up.

While DH is waiting for SD to come out to the car,  BM walks out.  She tells DH that SD has stolen her credit card AGAIN. BM has paid over $600.00 in fees for College. BM wasn't going to pay for the phone now because of SD's behavior.  BM told SD to wait and use the money she gets from graduation for a new phone. I told DH the same thing about the graduation money before he rushed off to save the day.   In my opinion, this is when DH should have told SD we are not going to get a phone today due to YOUR behavior and you lied to me about your mom.  See you later.  

They get to the phone store and realize that the plan she wants isn't $100 it is going to be more.  DH told her he wasn't going to pay more.  Told her that he could get her a prepaid phone plan with a cheap phone instead.  She wanted the new IPHONE. She told DH she would think about it.  I am almost certain that she isn't going to get a prepaid phone plan with a cheap phone.  In my opinion, if you needed a phone for job interviews or college, you would take the cheap phone.  Once you had the job, you could buy the more expensive plan.  Cheap is better than nothing but not to her.  I doubt she will get it.

SD still says she is going to college (less than 5 miles from her house) and staying in the dorm.  We shall see how that plays out.

I'm waiting for the college chronicles:
SD steals her roommates credit cards and doesn't understand why the roommate is pressing charges.
SD rages out in a class or at her professor and doesn't understand why they called the cops on her
SD claims she is date raped by every guy she comes in contact with and can't understand why no guys will date her.
SD claims shes pregnant every few weeks or so and can't understand why everybody thinks shes a liar.
DH sitting over here wondering why SD is having such a hard time in college...must be this college, they are the problem.

I am laughing so hard but the sad truth is all of this could or probably will happen.

Most colleges still have enable landlines in dorm rooms and offer it as a "free" service. She doesn't NEED a cellphone if that is already included.

It's a shame that BM was trying to impose consequences on SD for bad behavior and your DH totally undercut her.  If my DH heard BM's side of the story and still took a skid to get a phone, I would not be happy.

Wow, isn't SD the master con artist criminal, eh? Your DH was conned, again. Your BM was robbed, again. I would have a hard time watching my DH chase after her. She sounds horrible.
