My step daughter no longer lives with us. We haven't seen her in months. She isn't spending time with us over the holidays. And yet, she still manages to get under my skin.

She forgot my youngest daughters birthday...her little sisters. She never phones to talk to them, or her dad. She has removed all of her father's famly from her FB account.

I swear BM tries to sabatage every effort we make in raising her children!!!!!!

Ok, so tell me if I am out of line here. People involved are my husband, sd10, ss9 and bd5. My to step kids are constantly hitting eachother and my daughter has picked up this habbit as well. Last week we decided to come down on the kids for hitting with time outs. I have corrected my bd twice on this and punished her. This morning his kids are bashing the hell out of eachother. My husband walks right by and says nothing. I yell at the kids to both go in the dining room.

How will they survive?

DH and I were talking about the kids this morning. We were talking about how we would handle after-highschool age kids. How long they would be allowed to live in our house, they absolutely must have a job - you know, stuff like that. The oldest is 14 and the youngest are 9, so we have a ways to go still. We are doing our best to teach them how to live on their own. They are required to do chores, and I'll be teaching Spongebob (BS14) and Sheldon (SS13) how to cook after the first of the year. Also, I think they'll be doing their own laundry after the first of the year also.

Round three....ding ding ding....

So last time that we went for custody we settled and got more time. We had to quit because we ran out of money for the attorney. Now we have money to go back and really want to. But I was wondering what if we just went for 50/50 (equal days) no one pays support. That way we have the time that we want with him and so does she. I really don't think that she deserves it but we have a better chance of that. What do you think?

BM taking DH back to court again........ Now child support

Well just a little background..... BM has taking DH to court for child support 7 times over the last 3 years for more child support....

AND a couple times over custody and visitation.... She has basically lost each case she has filed or they have been dismissed. DH has been awarded more time (each time they went to court - he filed 2 times in the past 6 years) and agreed to pay the higher amount of child support when the judge noted a decrease

Wooo Hoooo SKIDS FREE weekend!!!!!

Oh how I love these weekends!!The stress goes out the door when they do!! I have 4 more kids at home but I love these weekends when I don't have to deal with the hate and disrespect they give me and DH. I just kind of wish every day was like this and I only had to deal with them every other weekend, or not at all. I just love my kids soo much they are sooo wonderful(not perfect though) they made mommy and daddy breakfast in bed this morning and they helped with chores today and gave us lots of hugs and kisses and love, skids aren't like that at all, not even to DH.
