How do you answer these questions?

So I don't know who saw my Saturday blog about the most recent phone call with SD (4). A bit of background, SD has now been living with BM full time since September 1. After the DNA testing and we switched to only having SD, SD never brought up about her sister not coming with her or anything. So now it has been over a year (October 15, 2019) since we have had BM's oldest daughter at our home or any contact with her. Also, bf and BM separated when SD was 1.5 years old so she has no memories of BM and bf being together.

Phone Calls

Well another phone call that SD answers crying and takes several minutes for her to get to talk then finally she gets to talking and asks "do you remember when (BM's oldest) came over your house?" And also "why did you marry mommy?" ... very clearly BM is filling SD's head because she's never mentioned any of this ever and doesn't even remember them living together, she was under 2 at the time. That's the most coherent things she said the whole phone call.

Talked to Lawyer, Birth Certificate Continued

So yesterday bf was able to have a phone appointment with the lawyer he used for the divorce. It is a good news/bad news situation. So basically based on what his lawyer has, the judge only verbally told BM she needed to now change her birth certificate, etc. it was never a written up order. The hearing of this was his second lawyer's last day on bf's case so basically it slipped through the cracks that the old lawyer didn't ask for the judge to write an order for it and it was never put on the new lawyer's radar.

Birth Certificate Continued

So far we have learned that since the child's birth certificate is from Indiana they require a court order signed off by a judge to take off the incorrectly named father. So right now we are still waiting to hear back from the judge's clerk which all the custody, dna testing, and divorce went through. Prior to COVID to get an appointment with the marine corps legal, you had to go in at 7 am on Monday mornings in person to schedule an appointment. I mentioned to bf last week maybe he might want to call ahead to find out if that is still the case because of COVID.

Do they ever get "what comes around"

I have always thought to an extent that "what goes around, comes around," primarily because eventually people who do bad things, get caught or some kind of karma from it. However, from being a member on this site for almost 2 years and my experience in step life with a high conflict BM who is in general just a horrible human being, it seems like BM's get a pass on the whole karma thing.

Even if not health care fraud

which I don't see how it is not because the child is not bf's dependent, bf is divorced from child's mother, but yet she is still on bf's insurance right now, but either way, this birth certificate needs to be changed. It is frustrating because it seems to get this done we will have to yet again do most/all the legwork which was what happened the whole divorce process and custody battle, to get anything done.

HELP - advice please in relation to fraud

So for those of you who know the story of BM's older child not being bf's but was passed off as his for 3 years, please give advice. We are really not trying to have to get an attorney or spend any money since it shouldn't be on bf but apparently bf's health insurance cannot remove BM's older child from his insurance until they have a new birth certificate that does not list him as the father. Right now they have her birth certificate that lists him as her father so legally they cannot remove her. 
 

Phone Call with SD, response to yesterday's deleted blog, and update

futurestepmomnowstepgf's picture

So yesterday morning we arranged with BM to talk to SD at 5:30 pm. Well we call and when SD answers she is crying and it takes almost 10 minutes to get her to calm down. Couldn't understand what she was crying over because when you asked, she would get upset/worked up again and you can't understand a word she says, especially on the phone. It was extremely frustrating because then we talked to SD for another ten minutes, but the last 5 she was very distracted. Which is understandable because SD is 4 so a 20 minute phone conversation is long for her.
