So I haven't seen DH since Friday AM. He's been camped at MIL's trying to figure out how to cover his backside. I did speak to him last night and was amazed.......Now check this out. DH's mother, both brothers, their wives and a couple of people I don't even know were all assembled to as DH says 'Figure this thing out".

21 and a step mother

I am 21 will be 22 soon. I am dating a man who is 31 and has three kids. I just found out there might be two more but their mom just told him they may not be his and will not let him see them any more. I do not have any kids and I'm not sure whether I should stay with him. I love him I do not have problems out of either baby mama and the kids are still warming up to me and the youngest one I love dearly he has really come around and gotten use to me. They have not disrespected me as of yet.

Losing my MIND

My SD is driving me insane, between BM gouging my fiancé for 70% of all school expenses and SD's attitude I feel like I'm gonna lose it! SD decided last night while she was "bored" that she was going to tear all the decoration on my 5 year old daughters bike and think its not a big deal. I told her that we don't ruin her belongings so what gives her the right to ruin others?! This child is a MAJOR pain in my ass, we have her 50% of the time and a lot of that time her father is at work and I have to deal with her stupid ass.

I really don't know where to start on this one. We kept hearing his ex complain about money so we told her to go to csr we got the papers sent them back verdict; she makes 40,000/ year he makes 23,000 and still has to pay 400 a month for cs plus he pays for another kid which is 300 a month so that leaves me with supporting him while he supports them. Did I mention we have a two yr old at home who is the one losing out. Neither his ex or their daughter go without anything! She asked for a iPad for bday a kid that asks for stuff like that is not a kid that goes without its a spoiled brat!

Appropriate Bed Times

Just putting it out there!

I'm a a young Step Mum, and we have the kids Wednesday nights and EOW... my skids are lovely kids but they are 7SD and 10SS so of course there is a few hick ups but they are normally pretty good.

i don't have any kids of my own so the only experience i have to reflect on is my own up bringing.
but, on school nights the kids still seem to be up at 10.30pm and a fight to get them to bed at 11pm!!.. and they are 7 and 10?

to me when i was younger it was 8.30pm -9pm AT THE LATEST!

A confession...

I ended things with my bf back in June because he had basically been telling me that nothing could change: his daughter was his first priority and he couldn't put our relationship first, BM would always have veto power, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the relationship with his mother, he had no plan to improve his financial situation/move out of his mother's house (long story but where I live BMs rule and this lazy BM who doesn't feel she has to work full time has drained this man via CS.

MY "PSUEDO" STEP CHILD DOES NOT LIKE ME BECAUSE SHE OVERHEARD HER MOTHER SAY THAT SHE DID NOT LIKE ME

I say pseudo because I am not married to her father I am living with him. Here is the story.... He has 2 kids 5 and 6. They always loved me and I adore them. They are so sweet and good. I started dating him while he was in the process of divorce. I was not the cause of their divorce and I've only met her once. I don't blame her for not liking me as she didn't want the divorce but he has not been in the house for 5 years now. Just recently the youngest overheard her mother say she didn't like me. This would explain why she has been crying and acting up.

My StepDaughter who isn't really my step daughter!!!!!

So allow me to explain. I will (possibly) be marrying a man in 13days who is wonderful, I love him with everything I have and he is a great man. However he has a huge heart that doesn't allow him to want to see the wrongs of his life... My FH has two biological children and plays father to several of his ex's children.
