Just when you think you are a hard ass? Moving my dad here to live with me. DH doesn't try to have anything to do with any of his sons but SS3. He wants to move in with us. I can't be all that bad when the best out of all of them wants to spend more time with me then any one. Dad will be ajustment but will get though. This may be my last enty??????????????? Thanks everyone......

Have you ever noticed when they are quiet too long that the anxiety starts up again. It's been to long since we've had an email or communication of any kind- and my anxiety creeps back in.
Ss16 wants to move in with us due to stepdad being a pain in the ass. He's telling both skids that he is their dad and not my DH because they are with him more than DH. I haven't ever had a conversation with BM or stepdad because DH and BM do not get along at all. I don't want anything to do with this woman anyway! There's been so many things that I do not agree with the most recent being the threatening of DH with continuing to pay her money for ss18 even though the decree has DH no longer obliged to pay her.
THis weekend has been especially trying. I am pretty good at disengaging for the most part. Many weekend with kids leave me feeling keyed up and in need of serious unwinding but this is way more. I'm not sure I can even put my feeling into words. DH has asked me what's on my mind because he can tell I'm bothered but I can yet discuss it, maybe I won't ever be ready since it usually comes to no good.
Ss13 picks on dd6. Teases her and picks on her to rile her up. Of course it works. But what do you do about it? I try to have a home that creates a good self esteem for my kids but it's hard when ss visits and teases and puts down the kids, esp dd. It has always been important to me for my girls to grow up with a positive body image, good self-esteem and confidence because a lot of girls lack that. Also because I struggled with that too. I haven't heard a lot of comments but dd has told us that ss calls her 'fat' (she's tall & skinny) & 4eyes (when she wears glasses).
So as some of you know, last week my husband scheduled me an emergency counseling session because I wanted SS10 to be placed in a summer program or summer camp.
so we get SS6 for 2 more weeks this summer...DH and I discussed it on what weeks are good for BOTH of us and that is the weeks we are getting him. BM (being the bitch she is) told DH that he was still getting the monster on the last weekend of August (which is HER SCHEDULED WEEKEND)and I have a HUGE problem with that and so does DH. Reason we have a problem with it is the 1.
I'm so glad I found this site! I've been feeling quite depressed that I am "stuck" with this child. She is cheeky, lazy,ungrateful and in need of some serious discipline. I decided previously not to have a child but now I'm wondering if I should, just so I can have a child that will be disciplined and that I actually like! She is nothing like me;a tomboy whereas I am feminine;ill-mannered whereas I was taught and value good manners. Her father tries to discipline her but he is a bit of a softie so after a while she just wears him down.
I thought I was alone. The first time I ever met my husbands ex she was standing on her friends porch in a very tiny two piece bikini. Wow! Why would you do that if you knew yor ex and his girlfriend were coming to pick up your kids. She hated me before she met me. Grant it I'm not an open book when I met people but when I heard some things she said I thought about heading for the hills and I still think maybe I should have four years ago.
