I am in desperate need of some advice or support!!! I have been married to my husband since 2007, I have 3 children, he has 4, and we have 6 (soon to be 7) grandchildren. My problem is his oldest daughter (21) and how he reacts, or should I say ignore all her problems. She is a full-blown alcoholic (so is her mother) and has been arrested numerous times for drinking related issues, including theft and DUI's. When she became pregnant we allowed her to move in (because baby daddy had to go to jail for a few years), with the one rule that there will be absolutely no drinking.
SO and I were filling out the contempt paperwork to file on HH for the last few weeks of shit that she's been pulling with visitation and denial and all that.
We could go to a lawyer, but I don't think it's necessary and I'd be the one that would end up paying for it as SO has no money to pay for one at this time.
Our is pretty much a blank motion paper and you fill in the blanks and write what you want.
Just wondering how other people who have done their own contempt filing have worded it?
So many of these kids got put on a pedestal and as a result, are really, really screwed up individuals. I don't think any of their parents did what they did with evil intentions but what did they expect? Not that they shouldn't be upset, but what did they expect when he was doing all this poor parenting? These kids are screaming for help. (Note: I just copied some of that from my response to Porcelain). The kids do need to be held accountable, and so do their parents.
I just went back to the previous blog (124 new comments) and it is such a timely topic for me - but for me, the topic really isn't such a big deal.
As stated in the blog, me and the ex will meet about twice yearly to talk about the kids schedules, activities, finances, our responsibilities/ commitments, possible changes in work schedules, etc. We have 3 kids together DD12, DS10 and DS9. We are both remarried as of this year. I don't think either of our spouses mind that we meet as they trust us, know us and know the ex and the new spouse. We are all very cordial.
What I gathered from DHs angry venting to me last night is that SD14 was caught at the public park around mid-night behind a wall giving filatio to a boy with her top down and her skirt up. When the officer told her he could arrest her but instead he would escort them home and talk to their mothers SD got mouthy. She gave the officer the finger and started to walk home herself cursing along the way and exposed herself. The officer then arrested her and she resisted and continued to be mouthy.
1. Has your BM/BD been ordered to find a job? I think it's a capacity to earn or ability to earn title of some sort.
2. Has your BM/BD been caught in lie after lie regarding income statement to CS?
a. If so, what was the consequence? Was your BM charged with contempt, perjury, or charged for falsifying documents? Whatever the penalty may be, please list it.
I don't even know where to begin with everything.
Ana's blog got me to thinking about this.
I don't need or want to know every single thing about SDs and what they say and do to/with dh. He doesn't tell me all that. I'm fine with that. I'm sure there's stuff they'd rather only he know. He's really the only parent they have although bm is alive.
He doesn't tell me every single minute detail about bm either. I know about the huge stuff and stuff that impacts me.
Blog in first comment since it was too long to post in the body.
Maybe this is just a new phase for teenagers brought on by instagram and all the selfies kids take of themselves. But it is driving me nuts.
Skid3 recently started a new habit. Exclaiming to the world how hot/pretty/good looking she is. She will post pictures of herself to her friends on instagram of a new hair style, funny faces, attempts to look sexy/sultry and literally spend the next several hours telling me how many likes she got.
