With no word or reply to phone calls from sd17.5 on whether she was going to MIL's with us to open presents Christmas day, DH and I headed off to do Christmas morning with my family. At noon I called MIL to let her know we were stopping to pick up the dog (FIL loves our dog so we usually bring him over with us) and would be over in a few minutes. She said to have DH check his messages as sd17.5 had called and said she had food poisoning and couldn't come over. She wanted someone to drop off her gifts. I thanked MIL for message relay and said I would let DH handle it.
I moved in with my girlfriend about a year and a half ago. She shares custody of her 6 year old daughter with her ex husband. Her daughter spends half the week with us and half with her bio dad.
The issue I am facing is that of my role as a "parent". My GF and her ex have very different views on her upbringing which partly caused thier divorse. Part of the issue now is that my GF has no rules in our house compared to her bio-dad, and over compensates with gifts trying to win her daughters love so that when she gets older she will want to be with us instead of her dad.
She sent me a message today, whining about health insurance and paying $240 for the skids' school lunches this last month, and how since she's paying so much for them now, she and her husband hardly ever eat...
Yea, ya fat cow. i can tell from the looks of it you never eat. and you want me to be sorry for you, spending for 2 teenage boys' lunch bills? Who do you think paid for their lunches for the last 12 years, ya frickin' b%^&*$. And their school clothes, and school supplies, and daily personal needs, and, and, and...
She got on my last nerve...
So 15SD exploded (literally) at her mom last night, for god knows what reason (she doesn't really need a good one). This, while 10SD and her 9 yo friend were in the next room (explosion happened in the living room, 10SD's room is just off the living room). Of course, 15SD has no respect for others, as previously noted, so that wouldn't have stopped her.
I managed to keep the girls occupied and somewhat distracted - of course they knew what was going on, but I think it reassured them to see that I was there and keeping them entertained and that I wasn't freaking out.
So this just happend now SD was running around and purposely dropped my granmas urn because she was playing and didnt like it she then says ohhh sand and starts playing with it AHHHHH my granma shes everywhere i called my mom and shes not the happiest i called my husband and all he said was shes just a baby NO SHES NOT DAMN IT
My nephew that is 16 just got a tattoo behind his moms back. She is ion the Navy and just had to go on the ship. Her oldest is staying with her mom b/c his dad is not a dad. But since his dad lives in the same state that her mom does and the rest of her family (she lives in FL) she let nephew stay with his dad for a couple of days which happens once every few years. That is all he sees his kid and never pays anything.
Yes, you read that right. She ran away this morning. Left an extremely long note explaining how we have been holding her back blah blah blah how she is supposed to be making mistakes and such blah blah blah...and she took off. Her dad is at work. She must have left just after he left for work this morning. She told her sister she was just going upstairs, and never came back.
I called her dad at work when our youngest daughter brought the note to me. He is upset...he seems to be angry at me. At least that is the impression I got. Wonderful.
I am so pissed.
So the kids have been at their moms house since Christmas Day… the LONGEST stretch that she’s had them since DH and I were married. (Usually she only sees them every other Saturday to Sunday… two flippin days and one night total, not a “true” measure of their behavior by any stretch of the imagination) And they’ve finally gotten comfortable enough at her house to let their natural little personalities fly!
She calls up last night borderline hysterical…
Mother Russia: “Oh…*SS3* is horrible little monster!!!”
Because of the events that occurred at christmas and our wedding we have had enough. or so I thought. DH told BM that he was going to take her to court. Finally, he's standing up for himself as a father. Or so I thought. I have contacted a lawyer and he wants to meet with us. Now DH is giving the "we don't have the money" excuse. I told DH to take my tax return and use it. Told him we don't need to go on vacation. After being blown off regarding the lawyer issue I asked, "if you have the money, will you do it?" DH responds with "i'll think about it" Really?
has anyone tried just changing your number and stopping phone communication completely? She will have an email if she needs to get ahold of SO but otherwise she won't have any other way to communicate with him. Any body try this and had major backlash? Just wanting to be prepared.
