$60 down the toilet
My SD13's mother barrows money from me. I have let her a few times. She has always paid me back so although I find it weird I havent had a huge problem with it. Well two weeks ago she asked to barrow 60. I told her fine but I need it back on Friday when I pick up SD13. When I picked up SD13 I asked her where her mom was...she said sleeping. Whatever. Sunday I dropped off SD13..BM not home. Surprise. I called left BM a vm on Monday. No return call. I left a msg with SD13 yesterday to have her BM call either myself or H. She wont. 60 gone. Oh well. Now I wont have to loan her money next time she asks. Bridge burned. Annoying.

I'd gladly pay $60 to BM if it meant she made herself as scarce as your BM has.
Even if it was only a month of not having to see or talk to BM, it'd be worth it.
They even have a saying about that, "If you lend someone $20 and you never see them again, consider it money well-spent."
Me too! For a while after
Me too! For a while after the kids moved in with us, we continued to send BM a lot of money each month. It was the only way she would agree not to fight the kids' decision to live with us. She said "her financial needs did not significantly decrease with the childrens departure". Her actual words! We gladly paid it and called it "hush money".
If it means you see less of
If it means you see less of her I say its $60 well spent.
It's been 4 months and I
It's been 4 months and I still haven't heard from BM. LOL I got one text once letting me know when to pick up SD13th from a bday party. Thats it. Wow. Best $60.00 I ever spent!
wow, we gave bm 900 in cash
wow, we gave bm 900 in cash for her emergency and she wouldn't report it, so it had to go to court. now nothing is in cash. we say, sorry, it has to go through court. she says, but they take out part of it...ya, the hoe doesn't understand its like this because she got greedy.
60 well spent! forgive it and smile. a small victory for step moms
