All your comments have made me realise that I'm normal to have these feeling and moments where I just want to scream!! Yesterday was a bad day - me and BF ended up going sleep with the silent treatment which was my error so I've apologised this morning. I know it doesn't do anything to help but sometimes I just want to switch off and go back to my 'old life'where at least my time was my own and I had certain control over things.
WELL... WHERE DO I START, I LEFT MY X-HUSBAND FOR A MAN THAT I HAVE LOVED WITH EVERY INCH OF MY HEART. I HAVE NEVER EVER FELT THIS WAY FOR ANYONE SINCE IVE BEEN BORN. WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY HE HAS GROWN CHILDREN 3 SONS.(35,32,28) 2 OF THE 3 HAVE KIDS OF THEIR OWN. I HAVE FIVE CHILDREN MYSELF, 3 ADULTS (25.21,19) WITH KIDS OF THEIR OWN, AND 2 STILL AT HOME. (18 AND 11) THE PROBLEM IS SO DIFFERENT LIFE STYLES IN UP BRINGING. MY CHILDREN HAS BEEN TAUGHT TO BUDGET THEIR MONEY AND PROVIDE FOR THEMSELVES AND HIS KIDS DAILY HAVE THEIR HANDS OUT USING THEIR CHILDREN AS BEING HUNGRY.
As some of you know, my SD15 goes to therapy once a week because of SF molesting her. Well, SD has been having some issues with other things in her life as a result of the molestation. Well, last week SDs therapist gave her an assignment to do before she goes back this week. SDs assignment was to search what Healthy Relationships are. This was the first time that SD has mentioned that her therapist gave her an assignment to do before her next appointment. After she had told us about it and I saw that she wasn't completing it.
Due to my recent blog and some very helpful advice, I did paraphrase some of the following to SD to give her some insight into emotional blackmail, her part in emotional blackmail (accepting the behavior), as well as how to not take it anymore, or move past it.
Here is the situation....I get a text from SD15 today (while she is in school) asking me to talk to her dad about letting her go to a basketball game.
My partner is 44 and his SD 9 has come to stay with us for the next 2 and a half weeks. The plan was for SD 17 to come and visit later (for about a week) at the end of her holiday with her BF and then take SD 9 back home with them (about a 7 hour car trip). Partner and I had decided on some house rules before the kids started visiting us, one of these rules is that SD 17 and BF sleep in separate rooms.
Why? Why? Why? What did I ever do to deserve this?
Nice day- skids had school, BS8 and I did not. Ran errands, ate out lunch, came home and did the few cleaning chores I actually enjoy. BS and I played Wii and organized some surprises we'd picked up for his half-siblings.
3:50 arrives and only 1 skid gets off the bus. Call husband. He thinks SD had drill team practice, but doesn't know where SS14 is... A call my SIL to see if he might be there- he's not.
K so DH emailed BM regarding the boys playing Baseball and letting her know the amount. and also letting her know what since she committed Medi-cal Fraud the boys no longer were covered to see the therpist with medi-cal and that we are getting them new medical coverage and now it is an out of pocket expense that we will be sending her a bill for half of each or these Items.
I don't want him to live with us anymore, he is a spoiled little brat, and more than anything he is sooo lazy!!! I know 12 year olds are not pleasant, but this kid takes the cake, mouthy, disrespectful, lazy, dirty, hateful, annoying, jelous, and spiteful kid I have ever met!! I just need a break!!! It doesn't help that BM tells him he doesn't have to listen to me and she tells him lies about DH all the time.
