I am jumping on here fast. It seems I never have time to get on here anymore.
SO works out of state 4 days a week. Home 3. His skids decided they wanted to come up here even with him gone. SO knows I have too much going on with baby and work.
so my first blog on here got allot of hatefull comments on it.
In my opinion instead of skipping ahead and ussuming the worst please remember what this site is for and remember that i also need advise.
i may only be 19 but dont be quick to judge me.
sorry this isant about stepkids.....
Sorry to go on today but it is so helpful to write this down. H is now getting angry with me. He said I bet she asks me to come back. Big pause. I said nothing. His response, "what am I going to say?". My response, she doesn't listen to a word you say and she's failing at school. Obviously she needs a change of parenting style while still young. And then he said but you can help me, what do I do I need advice. My response get lost, get a counsellor. Last time I 'helped' at your request I got undermined and two black eyes from a flying book. What a cheek! Am I wrong here?
Day four of my SD13 moving back to BM and ny H is not any happier. He looks like he hasn't slept and keeps mentioning her randomly like people do when someone dies. Feel really resentful now. This could have all been avoided if he had parented her properly two years ago. Instead he's been a bad parent and a weak husband. Obviously my and our sons presence in his life doesn't make up for her not being here. I can't tell him how to feel. She's only round the corner!!! Feel very second place now. Is his behaviour normal.
I guess i can't just ask a question without explaining myself anymore. really sad to see how people can twist what i say so badly. here is my story i guess for those that can't seem to get over the fact that life changes...
Need some advice. SD13 moved in with husband and I two years ago at my insistence after falling out with BM. Two weeks ago she had contact with her for the first time in those years. Her choice. Three days ago she picked a fight with her dad took most of her things and moved back to BM. My husband is devastated as she has been a mini wife to him. Pretty much wrecked my marriage and made my life a misery. Partly her fault mostly BMs vendetta against me through the whole of my relationship. Largely now I feel my husband is to blame for his ridiculous parenting.
That I didn't want to pick up ss8? My guy is working late and I was in the middle of cleaning the house when he called and asked if I could get his son for him. I don't like doing stuff like this, I don't even go in with them when he drops his son off. I told him I was in the middle of doing something and its up to him, he got frustrated ans said hell take care of it. I told him his son is here to see him, not me, so regardless of what time his son is here it will be late before he sees him. This isn't the first time that he has to pick up his son at 8 or 9 np but what ever.
I have been married less than two years, and am very much in love with DH. I have no bio children, and this is my first (and hopefully only!) marriage. We have SS8 and SS11 50 percent of the time. Dh and I have our conflicts with different parenting styles (reformed Disney dad), my expectations of behavior in our home, BM drama, and sometimes my being the "second wife" and not the "Golden Uterus" sucks. We are navigating things well and DH is receptive to my needs, parents the kids, and tries to be a good husband and dad. Sometimes I have to light a fire under his ass, but he tries.
BF(soon to be ex?) and his kids just left for their yearly vacation up north. The house is all mine for one whole week. I have not felt so relax in a long time. Before he left, he said "this is your house for the week". Guess what? I did just that, I made it my house for the week. I took down all the pictures of his kids including those on the refrigerator. No more stinky faces staring at me anymore, I found myself actually smiling when I walked into the kitchen. What a wonderful feeling!!!
Well we had a talk about meeting the kids as his "girlfriend." I have met them 5-10 times before. I am a bit younger than he is so he is worried about how the relationship between me and them will be. His exact words were "treat them like kids... not like childish... but like they are kids and you aren't." He has a son who is going to be 16 in two months and a daughter who is 13. I have never played this role in the lives of teenagers so I am really looking for help on this. I really want to get this relationship right with them. Anybody out there have any tips?
