and watch her make an ass of herself... Try very hard not to lower youself to her level... protect your SS to the best of your ability and realize that there is only so much you can do and then its out of your hands. I'm trying to learn that right now.... Theres not a whole lot you can do about their allegations, false police and cps reports... ETC. other than prove yourself through your actions.... When I am feeling how it sounds like you are.... I say this little prayer and it always helps me out!!

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference."

Hope it helps!

I know how you feel I am in the exact same boat you are in, make sure the husband is taking responsibility, and have him take care of your ss you should lay low and do as little as possible that way your name does not come up in anything. you are a step-parent you should assist not do.

I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO RAISING MY STEP CHILDREN MY HUSBAND WORKS EVENINGS AND BM DOSENT CALL OR HELP DO ANYTHING FOR THEM. SHE IS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT GETTING ME IN TROUBLE FOR THINGS I DIDENT DO. THE CHILDREN ONLY VISIT 4 DAYS A MONTH WITH BM. SHE IS VERY JELOUSE OF MY RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CHILDREN, SHE ALSO THINKS THAT EVERYONE CAN PUNISH THEM BUT ME.

Our BM pulled this same crap. When the kids came to live with us, the first thing I did was make them an appt. w/ the DR. for a check up and I keep them every 6 months. This saved our butts w/ DHS and the police as they actually gained weight (they were skinny when we got them and are healthy now.) to a healthy degree.

If it is only on weekends, buy a tape recorder, record the time and date and let it play through supper. This will prove that your SS is present during this time and that you don't starve him.

As for sending him to bed early, my SS9 has gone to bed a couple of different times w/o supper due to his inability to behave. According to anyone who matters, a missed meal every once in a while for a healthy child is not going to kill him.
IF IT WAS EASY, EVERYONE WOULD DO IT.
