Ok question for everyone out there.. do your skids call you mom or dad even though their not your bio kids?? this is why i ask... my bio daughter calls dh dad, she doesnt remember her bio dad and he has chosen to not be a part of her life dh is the only father she has and remembers always being their for her, so when skids heard her calling dh dad they asked if they could call me mom,
i was shocked and kinda stuck so i just said that will have to be something you and your dad discuss and i'm fine with whatever you guys decide.
She has just left with my step son. I am so excited!
Which is like a 2ND stepson once removed to her.
He is from my ex wife. who had a son from a previous relationship before I was married to her. And he also lives with us.
Anyways...
This day embarks a huge reign of joy in my soul.
They are off to his high school to go get his cap and gown for graduation. And various other things for the day that he graduates.
This day has all kinds of tangential super parental meaning to me.
That's what I am. It's the place between roomate and spouse...and it sucks. I've begun disengaging from the Skids. It's hard, but not emotionally, which suprised me. It's more hard as in, 'I want to yell at you for what you're doing right now, but I won't!. I just don't care enough.' I think that it might actually be some kind of great....
She said the movie was current, yet so out of reality she couldn't believe it. The main message of the movie was to remember...
SCOOP
Supportive Response
Communication
A double dose of Optimism!! :sick:
Patience
Look, I know I'm mostly rainbows and butterflies... but this had me even wanting to rip my ears off. Luckily I didn't see it or I'd be typing blind after ripping my eyes out too.
I asked her if it was for Pooper Scooper... but she said no one brought that up!!
What do you do when SKs say bad things about DH that you KNOW they heard BM say...?
I'm lost. For the first time in a long time, completely lost. I did not plan to start over again, who does, really? I'm the strong woman, raised by a long line of even stronger women. I was taught to be self-sufficient. Now I'm raising three girls, my BD6, SD14 and SD18. Mine is about as self supporting as she can be. SD14 just tries to fly under the radar - fine. SD18 is the most manipulative, cry baby sally I've ever met. She can't do a damned thing for herself.
I'm new to this website but I'm loving it so far and all the support. Everywhere you get crapped on for being annoyed by your partners ex and kids.
I'm so desperate i think i'm about to make an impulsive decision to buy a dog. I've wanted a dog ever since I gave my dogs up for adoption when I was divorced 4 years ago. I just haven't been able to do to school work, and simply not having enough time.
My SS14 wants a dog and cat...he wants wants wants. I'm afraid that if I buy a pet it might get treated bad when I'm not around. My SS is so determined to push my buttons that he does what he can to try and get his bioDad to be against me. He doesn't care about what I say unless it's beneficial to him in some way.
I'm the BM of a 6 year old boy who I will call D. My boyfriend and I have been together 2 years, we live together and he plays a very active role in my sons life. I will get to the issue that him and I are having later in the text, but I want to give the back story first.
I feel SO bad for saying so, but I really dont know where or how to express. My husband has to sons, 8 & 4. They are bad. We have them every other wkd and some wk nights. Not as much as my DH would like. But its truly enough for me. I do love them, so please dont get that twisted and have their best interest at heart. But their mother's influence and issues are pushed onto the boys. Their mother has no respect for things and doesnt clean her apt and lets her cat piss everywhere. The boys reak when they come to our house.
