Mom calls us????

kay's picture

After years of talking with bio mom, we get a call, SS stole $1500 from Mom and SD. She asks us what we think she should do. For years now we have tried to work with her to tighten the reigns on the boy and has brushed us off with "the court gave me custudy for a reason!" Now she wants are help. Honestly, I think she is just toying with us. I have some ideas but I know she will not follow through on any of them. This kid is so messed up and each situation gets worse. Just needed to vent. Any suggestions. How do we get BIO mom to wake up ..

SD lies - Do we tell her we know???

Skids were supposed to come up this weekend. Last Monday DH received a call from SD saying she joined the gulf team and to make up practices that she missed she has to go in this weekend, our visitation weekend. To encourage extracurricular activies DH told Bm that if she has practice and if we can add the days somewhere else we can reschedule. Needless to say the whole story was a lie ... she went to St. Louis with her friends. Her mother is still even not being straight with her as she is driving her down as I type. So now I have a SD in her mothers car lying to her father.

Just wanted to say thanks to all of those out there that have made my life easier this last year that I have belonged to this site. I appreciate all of the comments some of which were hard to hear but necessary! Thank you!

A stranger in my own home

The Skids are up here this weekend and yes again, they are walking around here ignoring me in my own house. Get this, the SD (15) said she didn't want to come up for 6 weeks as planned. So I begged the BF to just let the kids come up every other weekend. This gives the skids the opportunity to be with their friends in the summer. I am still the bad guy!!!! Skids get sent up last tuesday to spend the week with their grandma before comming here yesterday. Oh yes, they were told not to let us know! What we teach our kids to lie now. I know I am rambling, yet again, but damn.

MySpace mess

My SD has a myspace. Needless to say she left it on one night and I got wind of it. I probably should have just logged off for her but read it instead. Apparently, I am the devil. Many other words were used to describe me and the "terrible" rules I have at my house when she visits. I am so put out with all the time and effort I put into this child to find out that under that fake hug and what I thought to be a genuine relationship is a bunch of crap. I keep telling myself that it is teen age crap and not to take it personnally, and that it was never really intended for me to see.

Dad finally reaches out and gets slapped down

My husband just called me. At the request of his son, he went to see his football game. Flew out, rented a car, got a hotel room all for 1 night stay. He arrives and the ex, who knew he was comming in town, tells him that he can take the kids to lunch and then to the game, oh by the way the all have friends over and then after the game SS wants to spend the night at his friends house who by the way spent the night at his house last night and SD wants to spend the night at her friends. The other SD went out of town for the weekend. I feel so bad for him.

Someone tell me when this hell will end!

Tomorrow the SD and SS are to come up for Turkey day. Another attempt of the ex as she sends two police officers to my door stating that we are abusing her son. This abuse consisted of one spanking 3 years ago and a slap to the face for slapping his 3 year old sister in the face for what he said, "she wasn't moving fast enough." That happened in June. Now in Novemeber one day before the kids are to be here, she files a police report. Am I the only one that finds this a little crazy? THere is a definite difference between abuse and discipline.

SD is someone I do not recognize

My Sd (14) has turn into someone I do not know. I have found blogs that she has written that prove she is manipulating both families. She has begged us to move back here and then after we see the attorney she said, "I changed my mind." We are being played for a foul. At her last visit she asked to stay at her grandma's house. She kissed us goodbye and went. Then a 180 happened. She called her dad and said she never wants to come back. No reason just! The grandmother encouraged this.

Wow I am glad this is here!!

The kids just went back to their mother's house today. Of course, she planned their vacation starting today so for the entire visit all the kids talked about was their upcomming vacation. The reality of it all is that we don't have the money they have and we can not take vacations every year nor but the kids every little thing they want. Part of the buying everything is that we do not want to "spoil" any of the kids or be disney parnets. I can't take it any longer. The X, how my husband walks around after the kids leave.
