DH dropped a bombshell last night!

DH and I were talking last night about his plans with SS10 and SD16 for next weekend, Then BAM! - DH told me that once SD turns 18 (1 year and 1 month from now) he would like to fight for custody of SS. He said that he is scared that SS will turn out like SD if he stays living with BM. He said that he doesn’t like the person SD is and is embarrassed of her. He admitted that he is partly to blame for how SD turned out and that’s why he gets so defensive when we talk about her, it makes him sad to know that he helped her become what she is today.

Upset about Child Support

I am so upset about child support today. DH pays about $1200 a month for his 2 kids. WAY too much!!! It was adjusted this past January and it makes me so mad. No one needs that amount of money for 2 kids. BM works full time and makes a good living and she gets CS. Its bad enough to pay that kind of money for his kids but then I also have to put up with them every other weekend? It should be one or the other. Every time I think about what we could do with that money it makes me mad.

Help with disengagement from skids

I have two skids, SS10 and SD16. I have nothing against SS, he irritates me, but he is nice kid and does what he's told. SD is another story. She and I have had it out a few times and the result is us totally ignoring each other. I do nothing for SD and in consequence nothing for SS. But I feel bad for SS, like he is getting the short end of the stick because of my relationship with SD. We have skids this weekend and it was suggested that we carve pumpkins as something fun to do. But the thought of doing anything nice for SD makes me so angry, that I’d rather do nothing.
