I have a friend who has a 16 yr old daughter in OH that lives with her dad. Dad has a wife that has 2 kids. One of the kids is away at juvenile and the other is a 17 year old boy. Dad works for GM and is losing job and having to downsize to a smaller living space. My friends daughter told her that her dad and them were moving into a 2 bedroom apartment. My friend of course says whoa whoa where are you sleeping and where is the 17 year old step brother sleeping if dad and wife have one room.
So does anybody know the law in OH about the sleeping arrangements of kids that old?
Well I am back and I have a question, my DH has placement and BM sees him wed and every other weekend, so now we disagree about how summer is suppose to go, the order reads she has him every other weekend on fridays at 4 until sun.
So I took a job at a company that I wasn't that keen on but being 26 weeks pregnant and not hearing anything back from any other company I thought why not.
Well I just got a call from the company I wanted to really work for and they offered me a job but the kicker is I'd have to start tomorrow!
I'm not sure what to do? Do I keep the job I took (I've only been here a week) or take the job I was just offered?
Ok..well I have promised FH that I will not start an argument EVERYTIME BM's name comes up..so I'm going to vent here.
Well now I'm told I'm the cause of all his depression, I'm the reason he drinks, he was fine before I came along and blah blah blah. I told him if that's the case than as soon as I get full time job he's free to leave. Well he didn't want that.
The whole thing is revolting to me!
I let him have it (verbally of course). I told him he needs to be a man, take responsibility for his own problems and quit blaming everything on everyone else in his life.
I need to re-cap to make this all make sense. I was told that even though I took the week off from work to go to Tybee island with my SO and two SSs and the MIL, that I wasn't going to be able to go because MIL wanted the week to be about her and the boys. At the time SO and I had been arguing and she didn't want to deal with that at all and just wanted boy time. I was miffed gloriously and made it known that if the situation was reversed I would tell MIL that she had to like it or lump it.
These people have never given a flying rats ass about anything but how to avoid responsibility for my SS and how to use the Visitation/CS CO to manipulate my Wife.
Now, all of a sudden, they are keenly interested in making sure that SS WANTS to go to JROTC Leadership Camp and that Mom and SDad are not forcing him to go?????????????
He doesn't remember ANYTHING from last night!!!!!
He's given me all the "sorry, it will never happen again" blah blah blah
I chewed him out for probably 30 minutes and so did his mother, but I've come to the conclusion that he won't be changing. I have plans for this weekend and the last week of the month!
I'm praying tomorrow I find out that I have a job.
We have set up a loose visitation schedule with BM over here. Basically every Friday, she gets to see her daughter, at least for a few hours. Every other Friday, SD stays overnight at her mom's house. We picked Fridays over the Summer so that it doesn't become an every Thursday and every other Friday or Saturday overnight and trying to juggle all of those days. It's not perfect... SD has a birthday party sleepover this Friday night when she should be spending time with her BM, but BM is going to come over Thursday for a little while and Friday before SD goes over to the party.
Ugh the nerve of DH, I tried to have a conversation with him in regards to my working part-time and staying home with our son when he is born.
I explained to him that I didn't want our son spending the majority of his time at daycare and that with him being my first child that I wanted to be there to raise him. I even gave him options on how we could cut back so I could work part-time.
