I have a 9 yr old sd whose father thinks she can do no wrong. I have a 3 month old baby girl with him and as a first time mom I would like to think she'll do no wrong too but I know that's not true. Anyway, one night she told him to shut up and I was in the hall doing laundry, heard it and peeked around the corner and said "Young lady, we don't talk like that in this house." Her eyes bugged out like she couldn't believe I heard that and started to cry crocodile tears because she knows daddy hates to see her cry.
This has been a question on my mind since my discussion with FDH earlier today. We do not live together (been together for 5 years) and he wanted me to come over to "fix" the issue with his daughter. I told him that no, HE needed to fix it, not me. FDH of course got hurt and upset by that and started in with the so this is how you are going to deal with this crap? Yes, this is how I'm going to deal with it. I told him that I was sorry but that I was done being put in the middle and getting all of the blame.
However, most of the time, he's really awesome.
I just didn't want anyone to assume he's an asshole and I'm a moron who stays with an asshole if I happen to bitch about anything he does at any point.

My husband ex wife it very crazy she never leaves him alone and he doesn’t want to be bother my her earthier she calls him all the time for stupid crap to tell happy birthday or farther day.
** As a short preface, because this thing is so long, I will explain that my SD11 is an only child living with a custodial father who feels she's 'gifted' (even though she didn't have the scores to put her in the 'gifted' program; he blamed the school, of course). She refuses to follow simple requests without wanting to know 'why'; she has a 'meltdown' every time she is given a consequence for bad behavior on her part; and she lets her 'daddy' know how mean 'mommy' is to her when her mother tries to set boundaries and give her structure.**
Well here it goes.
Do you remember all the times I was insulted by your daughter and you said nothing? When I wanted to set simple rules for her and you said she is just a child?
I'm so glad to have found this place. I've been struggling lately, so it is nice to find others that are going through similar situations. This is probably going to be long, sorry in advance.
Two days after DH and I were married SS got REALLY sick. He was hospitalized for 3 days and at one point his heart stopped and they had to resuscitate him. He has had kidney problems since he was born and has had several operations, but this was definitely the worst!!
Just wondering if anyone had regrets when they've left a relationship. I've only left a few, and no regrets, well, except for some nostalgia from my divorce d/t growing up with my ex and having my kids. Still, I know we're not a great match.
It's hard to reconcile loving someone and not being able to have a life with them...
DH and I went out and did some Christmas shopping today. While we were out he brings up ss22. I don't remember how, but I remember thinking, "What does this have to do with anything? Why are we ALWAYS talking about YOUR kids?" He proceeds to tell me that ss22's car is parked at sd20's apartment. I asked him what's wrong with it... the kid has no gas. I said, "Well, I guess he will figure it out." DH says, "He has no job." I said, "Well, yeah, what's new? If he wanted gas, he'd figure out how to get it.
