This makes my stomach hurt!!! Please some advice

ok here I am sending in papers for an upward modification so that I can get more money from BD for my son. Now BD has only been paying 200$ for the past 5 years.So I think that its long overdue my son is 9 and becoming more expensive. But BF wants to buy his 9year old daughter a 200$ phone for her birthday.. But my phone doesnt even work properly and the screen goes blank when i try to press a number. Is there something wrong with this picture? I told bf why does he want to get her another phone when she doesnt even take care of the one that she has. Shes constantly leaving it in someones house or car and whenever he calls she never answers and her excuse is its charging.. But when shes with us for the weekend she makes sure she walks around with it in her pocket just in case her mom calls. I just dont feel that a 9 year old should be getting a 200$ upgrade on a phone... By the way its suppose to be a birthday gift and on top of that 200$ we are either taking her to dave and busters or bowling... BF's baby mama screwed him this year with taxes he got crap back but we need to get a new car because the one that we do have is about to die. I just dont feel that this is necessary can someone please give me some advice about this....,...........

hmmmm

Ask him how he would feel if there was an emergency and you [without a phone] were stranded somewhere..

A 9-yr-old with a $200 cell phone?

Yet YOUR phone is almost dying and so is YOUR CAR???

Yeah, I have some advice for you. Get away from this a$$. His priorities are WAY too screwed up for you to sustain a realtionship with him!

Seriously. Do you think this will get any better as his "Precious Princess" gets older? What's next? A Blackberry for her when she's 11? A luxury vehicle for her when she turns 16, yet your car is barely running?

Is THIS the life you want with this man?

The answer should be to BF, "SD9 doesn't NEED a phone. She may WANT a phone, but she doesn't NEED one. We NEED a CAR. SD can go to Dave & Busters for her birthday this year and that's it. If she wants a new phone, her mother can get it for her- she doesn't even answer it when WE try to call her anyway. It seems she only uses it to call her BM."

And if his response is anything but agreement, you know where YOU stand in this relationship...at the BOTTOM, behind his precious daughter. And I don't know about you, but that's not the place I would want to be in ANY relationship.
