So anybody who has read my previuos blog about CPS will be familiar as to what has been happening recently.
Recap:
FSD(6) tells her mother that SO pushed her head into the bathtub wall. BM calls CPS. BM knows SO is not capable of doing anything like that, but has blammed her mistrust in SO on other influences in his life meaning me. CPS shows up and talks with SO. We get FSD back and explain to her that telling lies is bad.
So DH got a new phone for work, one of those smart phones. It's so smart and connected that it links everything, so somehow it automatically linked a picture of BM to her phone number (from email or FB or somewhere, even though she's blocked on email chat and FB).
It was annoying me. I'm one of those who will pick up his phone and look through it, and he knows it, doesn't like it, but accepts it. He's also welcome to go through my phone anytime. Anyway, so this picture, all jazzed up of course, wasn't really adding much to my life other than annoyance.
As I sit here this morning, I am remembering the pain was DH was experiencing last night. The tears were welled up in his eyes about his oldest daughter. He told me how he was trying to convince himself that it was no big deal, so he had not told me. On Monday, he had talked to his BD13. He asked how her weekend was and she said "great, I went golfing with Uncle Mike!" Well, it doesn't seem like this may be upsetting.
DH and BM went to court yesterday. The date was moved to an earlier one.
DH lost.
Didn't see this coming.
The boys will be going to see her for the summer and staying there instead of coming back to us.
This means when I get back from deployment, my family will be gone.
It was my biggest fear and now it has come true.
I hate to say this but what is the point in going on?
I'm not concerned because there hasn't been anything appropriate said or done by my SD. But she is four years old and now that she is realizing that we all have different body parts, I'm wondering if maybe it's time she gives her Dad privacy while he changes. I think he is okay helping her get dressed when she needs help eventhough that is usually my job, but I'd just like a little input because I'm new at this and just don't know. Thanks guys!
I have 4 children a son 22, a son 18 and 2 children that live with me and my fiance a daughter who is 16 and a son who is 13. My ex-husband and his "piece of work" new wife and I do not get along and they bad mouth me to my kids (mostly my daughter) any chance they get so it is stressful at our house. My fiance's ex-wife is just a worthless piece of trash.
Hi. Im new to this so here i go. My step son is coming to live with me and his dad in a few days time. Sadly he had adhd and his mum cant cope with him anymore. she has a 3 yr old daughter and is frightend for her safty. Now i am only 21 and my step son is 13 yrs old. When he has come to stay during the holidays he has always tested me and answered back to me and shouted at me but wont do it to his dad. Is this a natural thing to being a step mum or is it the adhd and how on earth do i cope with it.
FDH & I have only spoken once since we had a huge argument last Saturday about his son. And when we did talk, he again refused to put the blame on anyone but me. He asked if this is how it's going to be, me not calling him or trying to 'fix' the situation and I told him yes, until HE learned to be a parent and stand up to his son and start backing me. I went on to say that him and his son were more of a couple than him & I were and that at this point, I didn't know what WE were.
My fdh must be so proud of Sd13, she's is down stairs screaming at fdh because she hasn't any clothes feeding him 'i'm hard done by' 'you don't love me lines'. Just had enough of listening to him being the worlds biggest door mat. Feeling sorry for myself just want a stress free life
To be honest.......it feels like being sucker punched, and you are mad because you got suckered punched.
After being together four years, which have had it's share of good and bad. We are finally in a better place, after a year of some really trying times. Now, we find out last week that there may be an 8 year old kid who may be my fiance's.
