Accused of abusing SS

life as we know it's picture

}:) First of all, I have never layed a finger on this kid even though he has needed it many times. My son has to hear it from a kid at school that SS is going around telling people that he ran away from home because I abuse him. Saying I punched him in the face. Truth be told I called him out on his lies so he ran away. REALLY?! I tell DH and all he says is that he will take care of it and don't know what to say. I don't know how much of this I can take. So far no authorities have contacted me so maybe he has just told this one child at school.

husband leaving me for disengaging

After trying to explain and understand the situation, H is leaving me basically for disengaging. The final straw was bc i have stopped telling everyone when supper is done. I told him that since he is home he can do it. Especially since he is closed minded about therapy I assume this is it for us after 3 years and a 2yr old later. Really, we are letting a brat come btw us. Unbelieveable!

anyone feel guilty for disengaging?

I hope i'm not alone in feeling this way. Maybe it's just the looks that my H gives me or the things he says to me that makes me feel this way. I was raised better than to ignore people or to treat people as if they dont exist. Then i think of everything that has lead up to make me feel this way and I feel somewhat better.

No communication

Yesterday Dh went to my dads house to work on a truck together. He asked SS to go with him. SS didnt want to. I was leaving to take my nephew home. When I returned I finished cleaning house so on and so forth. I assumed SS was asleep as usual. While cooking supper SS walks in with my inlaws. I had no idea he was even gone. Granted, DH and myself havent spoken much this weekend other than the important stuff. Thats important to know where everyone is. He failed to mention it. I jst acted like it was any other day. I honestly didnt care if he was home or not and rather him not be.

Dh calling me childish

Does anyone else get called childish for disengaging with their skids? DH has told me that i'm acting more like a child because I'm an adult and should know better. I disengaged before I found this site and was happy to discover I'm not alone. Nice and friendly didnt work. strict enforcer didnt work. Disengage!!!

At a huge turning point. Ready to run

Where to start? Married 3 years.I have a 13DS and DH has a 13 son as well. Then we have a 2DS together. Our love for one another is there. My fulltime 13ss makes me cringe everytime we are in same room. As horrible as that sounds I have finally admitted it out loud to DH. Over the past 3 years ss has consitantly lied, does poor in school, manipulates everyone into doing what he wants, disrespects me, screams at me, balls fists at me, and recently ran away from home. Acts totally fake whenever he is in front of family or friends and pretends to get along great.
