How many skids called your DH today?

herewegoagain's picture

Funny, little prego witch 2 is really good at texting DH when she wants money, but can't even text him for father's day? I never called her witch 2 until today...she is now old enough, she knows her dad supports her, dad tried to have a relationship w/her...but if dad doesn't give her moré money outside of the outrageous cs, while she is a truant and prego 15yr old he doesn't deserve a call? All I can say is "f}^}$ her! I am disgusted and it's obvious she is witch part 2!".

At it again

I am so upset; i know its fathers day and all, but seriously. This 12 year old sucks her thumb and is afraid of the dark, thunderstorms, her own shadow, etc. and her father plays into it and allows her to act like a baby. There might be a thunderstorm tonight so he is going to sleep with her WITH HER. Did I mention she is 12?! I find it to be poor parenting to let such antics to go on.

Anxiety attacks every time I have to interact with MIL

I actually had to take an ativan last nite. I couldn't stop crying and was hypervenilating when I got home. I then crawled into bed. 10 hours at sd's recital - ugh painful. And no appreciation for it. No one's friendly to me despite the fact that I go out of my way to cheerfully say hello to the bm, bm's new husband, mil and fil, and other sd. The mil is the worst. Despite being married for two years to dh after dating for three years prior, she has never asked once about me, my family, my job, etc...

I really DISLIKE my stepson!

I cannot stand to be around my 11 year old stepson. His very presence is annoying. He is sooo disrepectful, rude, ungrateful, and just a BRAT. His parents beleive in rewarding bad behavior so he has no discipline at all. He is 11 and he is aloud to do whatever he wants. He cusses, fights, demands that we take him places and he ALWAYS eats fast food. He will come into the room and TELL his dad he better get up and go to subway and get him a sandwich. I have NEVER in my life been around such a child. I HATE HIM! I feel horrible for this feeling but I can't help it.

Adult stepdaughters

Marbear's picture

While I am not new to being a stepmother to both young and adult children I am experiencing a whole different set of circumstances from my previous marriage with stepchildren. In my marriage to my late husband, I had no problems with my two stepdaughters and was close to both of them, as well as their biological mother.

Help me gain sanity!

Sad I am to the end of my rope. I honestly don't know what else to do. I am soooo sick of my bratty stepdaughter getting by with EVERYTHING while my son is constantly in trouble. My stepbrat doesn't live with us, but we have her almost every wknd, and weeks at a time in the simmer. I try really hard to "stand" her, but I'm not a fake person, and it's really getting harder and harder to tolerate her. She's 6 and my son is 7.

What do you call your stepchildren??

I have been in my stepdaughter's life for 5 years. I have always treated her and loved her as my own. Although I will never be her mother nor want to replace her mother I call her my daughter. I feel as if calling her my "stepdaughter" is an insult to her and to my husband. I feel that I would be saying that I don't think that she is a part of my life and that just because I didn't give birth to her that she is not mine. I think that it is insulting to treat her as differently than our other 2 sons.

I'm giving SD the dress in a few minutes....

I feel a bit nervous, LOL. Everyone I've shown it to says it's absolutely perfect. I took twice as long to make it as I usually do as I suspect BM will really inspect it, lol. SD just needs to try it on and I'll need to adjust the straps and that's it, she's taking it home with her tonight. (She's just coming for supper, I invited her to make sure the dress fits and because it's fathers day). I can't wait to see the reaction. BM won't like it but I didn't make it for her.
