Growing sense of irritation

Last-Wife's picture

Lazy Boye spent the weekend with Loca Grande. He stayed and missed school Monday so she could take him to the eye doctor. He came home at like 9 pm with new clothes, and lots of shopping bags. He bragged about the new gun Gullible, her husband, got him. (A slightly bi-polar 15 year old hormonal kid does not need a gun, but this is the mid-West...) Thye took him to see Jack Ass, great movie, I'm sure. Oh, and they bought a new car that afternoon since Loca Grande's car didn't pass inspection!

BM wants to diagnose everyone!

Want to be a better SM's picture

The BM of my 3 mostly lovely stepchildren always wants to diagnose them...

The oldest has Asperger's.

The youngest (14) is really acting out...not handing in homework, cutting class, not obeying my DH when he gives punishment, etc. She was also caught smoking pot...

BM says she needs to be on Lithium...BM is an alcoholic who has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and thinks she (diagnosed by herself and her Mother) may also be Schizophrenic...

How do I disengage?

FH forwarded another text from BM to me. It was a picture of her arm that had red and pink blotches on it. The text read:
"c my red arm! Thats from our son hitn me after i hit him 4 sayn f*ck u 2 his sister bout askn 2 empty the dishwasher".

He sends me this to seek emotional support and guidance and he asks for my opinion but in the end he isn't going to take any suggestions - even the ones he thinks are right on. He will handle things like he always does.

Babymama trying to render us homeless...

The situation with babymama has been a thorn in my ass for the past three years. But she's been a bane to SO for far longer.

Last night we got a notice of garnishment for an apartment she took out IN HIS NAME ONLY, because she still had the power of attorney he was forced to get when he was in the military about to deploy. All that chick has done has used it to take out stuff in his name and then not pay for it.

Newbie here!

I am so glad to have found this site! I am BM to 3, and SM to my BF's two kids. We have all been living together for over 2 years. BF and his ex-wife split up about 4 yrs prior to us meeting, due to her being unfaithful, and other things. She never really parented their kids. Their daughter got most of her mothering from her grandmothers. The ex-wife also had a some mental issues and was hospitalized a few times for them. So these kids haven't had it easy.

feeling left out!

Well me and Mariyna (my step daughter) have always been very close and still some what are. Her and her mother on the other hand have not always seen eye to eye so in some ways she was always closer to me then to her mom. Now I have always encouraged her to have a better relationship with her mom and I still do but I didnt realize how much it would hurt me.

First entry

I finally found the support and encoragement that I needed through this site. I have been creeping for quite some time, but finally chose to make an account, and be active.

My story. 20's, military, married, 2x step kids SS3 and SD4. Currently they live with me and my husband, but sometime next year the mother will get the back (She lives across the country) and my husband and I will only have them during the summers (unless something changes).
