I let her get to me.
Thursday SD18 had a pinning ceremony at her school because she will be graduating with her CNA. She is going to college for nursing so she has this little step up already.
SD told us BM will be attending… whatever we don’t care. I assumed her mom would be attended with her for back up.
We really haven’t seen her since SS20s high school graduation in 2022. We saw her last year, but she sat far away in a corner as she only attended one of SDs lacrosse games last year.
I said to SO I wouldn’t be surprised if her or her lunatic mother say something to him....
So there are only 13 students in the class so not a lot people. The ceremony was 20 minutes and then they basically dismiss us for refreshments. Some parents stay on to take pictures. The staff took pictures with the students etc.
SO and I leave the auditorium and where hanging out outside of there waiting for SD to come out because we knew BM and the mom would be being their fake selves… specifically BM acting like she is/was an involved parent… hovering over SD. We weren’t the only parents hanging outside and I was talking to one of SDs friends mom (who BM has no clue who she is that this woman drove her kid to school for an entire year) while we were waiting.
Anyways..
Here come BM and the mom walking out of the auditorium..
BM “she thinks you guys left.”
SO and I Ignore her.
BM **louder** “She thinks you guys left you MIGHT want to go back in there!.” She says this in the most condescending tone.
SO and I ignore her.
They walk out.
My blood is instantly boiling. Who the f does she think she is telling US what to do???! I was enraged. If we weren’t on school grounds I’m not sure how that would have went down.
SD comes walking about shaking her head. BM was in there saying how SO and I probably left because “we didn’t want to be there because she was” and that “we probably had something better to do.”
Unbelievable. Coming from someone who hasn’t done anything for her kids in well over a decade. Has created no memories, no financial help, hasn’t done a f’n thing.
And just for a reference I’m very much a a type “A” personality person so you can imagine my rage.
These women just don’t know when to quit!!
SD graduates this coming Thursday so hopefully after this we won’t see her for 4 years until SDs college graduation.
I really try not letting her get to me , but man! She got me!!
And like always... I was right! I knew it was coming because this is the 1st opportunity she's had to say something and she can't control herself.. she thrives for attention. We cant give it to her.

Hopefully SD knew full well
Hopefully SD knew full well you would not leave and picked up on BM's bullshit instantly.
Great job ignoring BM and her idiot mother.
You and your DH make this whole thing special for SD-18. Make sure BM knows clearly that she is irrelevant and had zero to do with SD's accomplishment.
Greyrock and smirk.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Congratulations to SD-18 and to you and her father as well.
We leave on Wed for our nephews HS graduation next weekend. This should be interesting as the departure of my recently out of the closet SIL, the graduates mom, is immenant as she divorces the father of her children for her GF. Our nephew is entirely unaccepting of this whole thing and has let his mom know in no uncertain terms that she disgusts him.
A tough place for an 18yo to be in. Though he is launching into a great opportunity. He has a full scholarship and full time job to get his AS in diesel technology with a large equipment sales and service company. His grandfatherrecentlhy retired from that company after 40yrs of service. Full time pay, all school and expenses covered by the company.
Not a bad gig for a teen.
For me... I just can't
For me... I just can't comprehend the audacity to say "she thinks you guys left."
SD knew we didn't leave...like come on BM... I did say to SD later that I'm sorry she makes everything about her.. hence the statement of us leaving because she was there... I said we there to support you and your accomplishments big or small like we always have been and we don't cage about her.
All stuff SD already knows. Hopefully next week goes smooth. I'm sure I'll have to blog about it though haha.
Your nephew is on a great career path!! SS20 is in HVAC. Trades are (IMHO) the best way to go today. So much demand.
Your SKids are fortunate to have won the dad and SM lottery.
Sadly, too many Skids lose at least half of parent lottery.
Congratulations to SD and to you and her father as well.
Great job.
What a snarky thing to say
A more appropriate statement would have been, "SD is on her way out. I wanted to thank you for all you've done for her". As if......
LOLLLL. Hell would freeze
LOLLLL. Hell would freeze over first!
But you did not show her that
But you did not show her that she got to you. Sometimes people get annoyed with me because I often do not respond to ahole behavior. To me, the power in most cases is in not reacting. BM is probably much more upset than you are. *smirk*
Oh, for sure. She wants
Oh, for sure. She wants reactions. She always has..
Our BM pulled similar donkey
Our BM pulled similar donkey doo stunts except that SD's drank up her lies like salty lemonaide. She told SD's that DH has "other priorities" (because he has friends) and that they have been replaced by "the other family." (my kids and I) Such toxic, transparent, manipulation!
When I was a kid my parents sometimes said mean things about each other but i was smart enough to think for myself and make up my own mind. Not my StepDiablas28&26, they follow their cult leader without question.
It's comical because the
It's comical because the skids live with us. They have lived with us 24/7 since early 2018 when she stopped exercising her visitation rights. Before then she was taking them every other weekend
They haven't even been over her house for dinner in years, but somehow SO and I left because we had better things to do. She's had better things to do for 14 years since her separation from SO LOL.
DH and I had SDiablas over 50
DH and I had SDiablas over 50% of the time, 3-4 days per week plus all holidays. BM said she needed "me time" or "alone time." It was infuriating because on paper BM had primary custody, and child support was set as such, but in reality they were with us more. She also refused to spend money on clothes and other essentials even though she had more than enough child support money to do so.
These lazy, manipulative, disordered personality types have to work overtime to create a false narrative, deflect, and lie because deep down they know they are losers. They use manipulation, and brainwashing to try to keep themselves on top.
"hese lazy, manipulative,

100% accurate. What's even more fascinating is the nature vs nurture with my SS21. He is 100% is mom. The only thing he got from SO is work ethic. DNA took over completely there. Him and I don't even speak and honestly... I don't want too. BMs tricks worked on him via text message/phone calls. Didn't work on the other two. SO recently went off on him about how he is with me and blamed BM......... didn't go anywhere because it never does... but whatever.
Excuse me
If you left for home. How did BM expect her DD to get home? DD was sleeping in the school ?
She is 18 and has a car.
She is 18 and has a car.
Congrats to SD
A friends daughter also had her nursing pinning ceremony. It was beautiful. This girl worked very hard to maintain a 4.o and she has it together. She used to be BFF with Feral Forger...and has surpassed her in every way possible.
It is so nice when they do well.
No doubt FF and TT are either purposely ignoring the former BFFs success or badmouthing it as having it easy.
For some reason, those who don't do the work, think that those that do somehow did not earn it or that it was given to them or they are so lucky, etc, etc, etc...
