Just got off the phone with MIL. During our conversation she mentioned that SD20 "might be" coming home but she hadn't heard whether she truly was or not. Which is hilarious, because according to SD20 FB, she is DEFINITLEY coming home and going to be here on the 16th. I told MIL that I was pretty sure she was coming home and planning to work at the job she was at over the summer, because she asked DH if she could drive one of our cars while she was here. I also told MIL that she was NOT staying with us and NOT driving one of our cars after the nasty gram SD20 sent me in August and also because we just don't want her or her drama in our home. MIL said that she doesn't blame me and that SD20 owes me a big fat apology. I told her I don't care, it won't mean anything, just like all the rest of the apologies. I am done.

MIL said that FIL already told her that if SD comes home that he doesn't want her staying with them again (she stayed with them most of the summer) so looks like SD's only option is to find some friend to crash with, or stay with BM. No clue what BM1s living situation is at the moment, last I knew there were 4 kids and 4 or 5 adults living in a 2 bedroom apartment. I know that they got evicted from there in September, and I know what house they are in now, just don't know how many bedrooms etc. The house looks small from outside, so I'm guessing no more than 3 and I'm sure it's the usual hog hollow by now. Oh and the only car BM1 has is the car that belongs to her brother that lives there and he works and won't be OK with just letting SD commandeer his car for a month, soooooo this ought to be fun!

Also no clue HOW SD is even going to get here, MIL said Aunt J said she is NOT bringing her and SD doesn't have a car, NO freaking way will DH get her (it's a 20 hour drive round trip) and of course BM1 won't because she won't have gas money or enough brain cells left after all her drug use to read a map. So As usual, SD making all kinds of plans without really even having a "plan" and everyone will be expected to scramble around at the last minute to accommodate her, and it's looking like that's NOT going to happen.

MIL said she does not want SD20 and SS19 at her house for annual Christmas gathering because she doesn't want me to feel uncomfortable. I told her not to change anything on my account. That I will be just fine, no need for her to stress about nonsense, I'm a big girl and can handle it. Soooo this should all be very interesting to say the least!

I like and support your response to MIL re: SD and SS coming for Christmas. I just had the same conversation with DH's sister, with whom I am very close. I told her the same...invite who you want, that is fine. I can deal. Also, I know that SS won't be there even with an invitation. He and his wife say I make them "uncomfortable" yet I have no idea at all why. I do know it is an excuse since they have nothing whatsoever to do with DH's family, only BM's family. Whatevs LOL!!

Can't wait to hear your updates on the situation as it progresses Smile

Here's hoping DH stays strong and doesn't pull the whole "well she's my daughter and it's the holidays." bit.

Really don't think he will. He's not all about the "holidays" anyway... he thinks it's just another stupid reason for people to run out and spend money on pointless garbage (can't say that I disagree with him) He also said he thinks it's dumb for her to come home and "work" because we all know, she's going to spend whatever money she makes.. and probably more on her 4 sisters (not DH's) because BM is a loser. That's what SD did this summer... spent over $1,000 dollars on her sisters on top of what she blew on herself. Worked all summer and went back to college with NOTHING to show for it. But whatever, she can spend her money on whatever she wants and if BM has no conscience allowing SD to act like a mother to HER kids, then whatever. Not my monkeys

Perfect response to your MIL, IMHO. I recently had a similar conversation with my DH about his daughter and stepdaughter. He doesn't want any 'unpleasantness'. To which I replied, "You don't have to worry about that from ME. *I* KNOW how to be polite and civil." The unspoken, and what he definitely knows, is that his daughter and stepdaughter are rude little twatwaffles, on their way to turning into their rude mother, BioHo.

Not MY fault he stopped parenting after he divorced their mother.

oh this is getting good lol....

SD is going to ask some one to either pay her plane ticket or collect her, in the last minute... Imagine every one telling her, No sorry not enough notice we are busy.....

Aunt J is going to pay for her to get her out of her state.... SD will arrive at your door step and DH will fold and let her in and hand her your car..

Somehow BM is going to get SD down to your town, but has no place for her to stay and BM will tell DH - it's your daughter you take her in you are a bad father, DH folds and takes her in..

None of the scenarios sounds good, my money is on 1
