When will CPS get a clue?!?!

newstepmom2008's picture

I am so frustrated from worry and lack of sleep this week. On Tuesday, July 8th, DH and I found out that BM had failed to pay the utilities for some time and they cut everything off. Then we found out that she was also delinquent on rent, and her phone was soon to be cut off. She of course expected us to bail her out yet AGAIN! DH told her he would get back to her. He talked with me about the situation and we both agreed that enough was enough! However, SS (4) has to have breathing treatments two times a day, so electricity is a non-negotiable.

Skid room question

Currently we live in a 3 bedroom house but with me being pregnant again, it's going to get small, quick. So my husband and I have spoken about moving and it's an inevitable possibility. I absolutely hate moving and there's that part of me that says that we won't find another house like this for a decent enough price (we rent).

I think I'm ending the marriage

It's just one thing after the next. I'm NUMBER 5 in his life,
after the three adult STEPBRATS and his mommy.

We are SUPPOSED to go to Myrtle Beach August 9th. One would think he would be planning a GREAT time with is wife. (My own 16 year old daughter is bringing a friend; I don't think any
of his bitches are coming); ANYHOO, I find out that his OLDEST (29) brat Emailed him that she is having a PARTY at her house on the 16th. (the day we're driving back to PA); of course, I DID NOT RECEIVE anything about it.

Just A Quick Question

I'm not sure what's considered normal. I'm an only child, so my parents never had to worry about bathing me with siblings. I know that often times families with small children give them a tub bath at the same time.

My SS is 5 and my SD is 3. They are still bathing together. I told DH that I wondered if it might be time to stop this. He thinks I'm quite silly and said they are still young and it doesn't matter.

Help myDH & I

I have 2 ss, ages 8 & 5. BM has met a man on the internet and is supposedly getting married in sept, without ever seeing this person. Now she is saying she is moving out of town with him and the kids..Any suggestions?? We currently have ss every other weekend as well as 3-4 days per week. She is the custodial parent, but we keep them most of the time..it is very screwed up..

monday i came home from work...no water. i didnt say anything to SS. after the last blowout, i figured, i will let it slide...i really dont want him to think of me as the wicked witch of st. louis.

last nite, i come home...NO FREAKIN WATER AGAIN. i dont say anything bc i figure 1) what more can i say? 2) i cant make him care 3) if i do decide to say something it will be w FH so he can act as a referee if need be, and 4) at this point, im incapable of talking about it...i will probably scream or smack SS across the face.

Infuriated for DH (CS related)!!!

Is anyone familiar with CS in NJ? I'm trying to figure out if DH can be made to pay for BM's vacation (which was LAST summer) with their kids. At the request of their mediator, BM put together a list of her expenses. What she was supposed to do was put together a list of expenses she considers to be extraordinary, so that she and DH can negotiate the types of expenses he agrees should not be included in support.
