POS BM!!!!
so SS17 has decided against going to college because his mom said he should go somewhere closer (he was only going an hour away) because she'll miss him!!!!!!! he won't hear going to community colleges or anything online to get a start, he will just continue to buss tables at the pizza place he's currently working.
he told me this and i wanted to drive to that bitches house and punch her in the face!!
WHY WHY WHY would you do this to your child?!?!?!? back the fuck off and let him further himself so that he's not a scum sucker like you!!!!!!!!!
i'm hoping he'll hear me out on still going somewhere or doing something college related.
thanks for the vent - sorry about the language!!!

no shit right?!?!? i'm still
no shit right?!?!? i'm still pissed. why would you do that to your child - shouldn't you want them to do the best they possibly can?!?!?!?!?
I would tell my ss that of
I would tell my ss that of course his mother would miss him. Every mother misses their children when they go to college. But this is all part of growing up and learning to live on your own and I am sure his mother will not want to hold him back from meeting some pretty college co-ed.
Appeal to his testosterone.
DH told me later after they'd
DH told me later after they'd left that if it comes down to it he will threaten him that it's his life he can do what he chooses, but he WILL NOT live with us. we WILL NOT support him in not furthing his education - DH wants more for his kids than he had, Dh didn't go to school and has a labor job, ss17 is NOT a laborer.
while i dont think threats are the way to go - i support not supporting him if this is his decision because of his mother.
Dh and i talked to him during
Dh and i talked to him during an hour and a half supper, DH let his dad talk to ss because they have a really good connection - those two talked probably an hour and a half, i asked him before they left if he'd keep his mind open to a college in our town (30 min from bm) no diff than him staying with us, and he said he'd think about it but not to get my hopes up.
"this is all part of growing up and learning to live on your own" this child does NOT want to grow up. this is the first job he's ever had and he currently has his first girlfriend ever. he is easily influenced so i'm sure these two females are not helping. he is sheltered - i mean dangerously sheltered. when he first got his license at 17 Dh was scared shitless of what would happen to him. he couldnt' tell you how to get home if we dropped him a block from home - this is how nose in his Ipod computer thing he is. there is no outside life to him other than school, work, adn now gf otherwise all i've ever known him to do is computer games and legos.....
as to "If she misses him, why don't she just get in her car and drive the hour to see him" - because that's not the type of parent she is. that's what pisses me off the most - this woman hasn't given two shits about these children. she favors her new child and stepdaughter. her children get to shop at goodwill when they ask for clothes. if they want new clothes they will always tell dh. i mean come on - you can get online at aeropostale and get $15 jeans new - cheap enough!
Dh doens't want to confront her for the unknown retaliation she could pull.
the cost of tuition from the
the cost of tuition from the state school 1 hr away went from $7000 a year to same city private universities/colleges $20-26,000 so BM's an idiot. and the kid would have gotten financial aid and loans so it's not like she's footing the bill.
