BM doesn't get it... who's the "real" mother?

Last-Wife's picture

DH told her not to contact me again. She came to town for SS15 ballgame tonight. She brought SD17 back home after only watching like half a game... (She made this big deal about watching him play, and then didn't even stay...) She came in with SD to try on some clothes they bought before the game. (Yes- we let BM in the house. I'll post about that another time...)

Too Funny! (Supernanny)

Ok, I had to post this. About 3 months ago after a fight about the kids and watching an episode of Supernanny, I went on their website and it had an area where you sign up if you wuold like to be considered for the show. I did and wrote alot of the things that bother me about the kids and told them that they didn't portray enough blended families. Anyway forgot about it.

Tell me how to deal with a BM that undermines the authority in your home

SS13 has been grounded for poor grades. We took away his cell phone. BM apparently buys him a cell(go phone) this past weekend and he sneaks it into our house. Mind you SS lives full time with DH and me. My Biodaughter brought it to my attention tonight that SS has a cell. I took it away. Bad grades, no phone. SD11 says SS13 has that phone from my BM so he can have his privacy. What I'm pissed about is the fact that SS13 knew that he was grounded and BM knew we took his(the one we pay for) cell away for poor grades.

Wow I am overwhelmed today. Me and my fiance are going on a cruise leaving tomorrow and am terrified of what is going to happen when Im gone. Im afraid the ex will send the sherrif or the cops after SC15 because we are gone. She is staying with my sister while we are gone but the ex is the mother.....does she have the right? They haven't seen eachother since christmas...cant force SC15 to see her mom. Every time she goes there the cops get called or the threat is made. Last time she took SC15 to the hospital and told them she tried to kill herself and made her get tested for drugs.

Guys feel free to chime in your romantical endeavors that stole your woman's heart.

New to the site and desperate for help

My husband and I have been together for 10 yrs. His youngest daughter is now eleven. Her and I have always gotten along. We have never had any trouble until the past 1 1/2. When I was 6 months pregnant with our first son I noticed that she began following her father around the house. She never left his side. I brought this to my husbands attention and he said I didn't give her enough attention. Every time I ask her to do something he claims I am too hard on her. Now that our son is 8 mths old and we are expecting another in 5 mtns things are worse. She is still following him around.

SS3 said "I don't love you...."

So today DBF gets a random text from the ex (DumbBunny) about how they need to "talk." She says that she dosen't like how they have been fighting so much and its not good for little guy. He agrees that its not good, however she is the one freaking out and cursing in front of him and just going bananas. So after about 1/2 day of her berading him with txts he finally was like "whatever, ok." This makes me nervous, not because I think she is going to make a move or anything, just because its never as simple as "just talking." She has something up her sleeve.

SS12 is such a brat!

First thing this morning he starts a fight because he has no clean clothes and we went over this 2 months ago, if he wants clean clothes he has to wash them, especially after the way he talks to me like I'm his maid. He just went on and on about how stupid we were and that we should know that he needs his laundry done and that we should do it for him like we do for the younger kids.

Mixed Feelings

g-force's picture

I have been married two years today and feel like my step-sons although their needs are reasonable are taking all my energy and attention. I want to be a family with my husband and natural son (21 months) and resent my older boys (3 step-sons) for all their needs. I want to get closer to them, they clearly want me to, but I feel like they are going to engulf me. I know I have issues and am seeking help on this and other issues.

Another step in the right direction...

DH stood up to BM today and told her not to call ME again. Yea, honey!

I debated last week if I should send BM a sympathy card cause I had finally disengaged from her, but felt bad her grandfather died. I had kids give her the card when she picked up SS14 on Friday. I guess she thought that opened the lines of communication again, because she called 4 times over the weekend; which I ignored each one.

She called last night about SS15 ballgame tonight. I sent text and told her to call DH- I was not involved in plans.
