After my last post, SS steals money, mom calls dad and says I am sending him to be with you, on and on it went. Dad is ready to go get the boy. BM STOPS does not return calls and then acted stupid when dad gets a hold of her. Everything has changed. She will put SS in the hospital again. Yes again! Everytime he is out of control or does something stupid, BM puts him back in the hospital. Why discipline when you can medicate! Yes some kids need medication while others need consistancy and discipline.
Hello All! I write tonight with great news. For those of you who have been following my saga, you know that I am pregnant with twins, and have three others between my own and DH's. We have been desperately trying to rent out our 2 bdrm. condo to move into a place that will adequately house all of us. Well today, it happened!!! The condo is rented! I put an offer on a house that I think will be accepted, and if all continues to go well, we will be moved in before Christmas, best one ever! Best of all, I will have two bedrooms on a whole different level for my skids to stay in.
I know I have been absent this week, I am thinking of you my friends. My Gramma went home to be with The Lord on Sunday night. As many of you know she has been fighting cancer for many years and the cancer finally won. She is no longer in pain and my family is handling our loss as well as can be expected, as for me, I have not stopped crying in 2 days. Thank you to those that have had her in your prayers.
How much communication takes place between your H and his EX in reference to the kids?
Emails a day? Phone calls a day? If No emergencies are happening- No one is bleeding- No threat of something bad getting ready to happen to the kids. Just your everyday stuff-
"did you get the grades- well here they are-...etc...."
"are you taking J to her lesson today?....etc......"
"How did H do on his test?....Could you remind J about...."
"Take E's phone away b/c....."
"Are you going to......Will you tell him....."
"I think we should........"
....BM threatening to move the custody case from our current county, to a different one. Can she really do this? The case has already been heard twice in our county. The order's been in effect there since 2005. The papers she was served said she is in the same county as us. From what I know, her address is still covered in our county. SS was born here, and lived here until she wanted to move over a year later. Now she is saying that she can file with this other county, because that's the one listed on her lease. We have no idea where the courthouse is in that county.
SOOOOOO last year DH stated that this would be the first and last year that his kids opened presents at everyones house. He wanted both familes ( his and mine) to bring presents to our house so kids could open from everyone at once. I know some families do this but mine never did. And his parents didn't want to miss the girls opening gifts. SO then we all forgot about it. Well last night he starts with the same BS and states this is the way its gonna be..blah blah blah. SO I just wanted to lay it on the line for him. This is what I said,
My DH and I decided to try and see if we can make things work. BM is starting to take SS every other weekend and we are trying to spend time together.
Well DH and BM decided that SS would spend Thanksgiving at BM's house and we'd drop him off on Wednesday at 2PM. She was suppose to call us on Saturday to confirm and finalize plans. Well it's now Monday and she hadn't called. Therefore I cancelled my plans for the week of Thanksgiving because DH has to work the day after Thanksgiving and Sunday.
to its Why Did I Get Married. I know i have watched that movie atleast five times. It makes me look deep down into our relationship and make sure that this is what i really want. It makes me really make sure that i want to get married on May 31st. It deals with everyday problems plus this is this one couple with a crazy baby mamma and her husband has no balls.(sounds familiar doesn't it) As much i don't too much care about SK i love their daddy to death. So dealing with them is just a minor inconvenience that i will deal with. Things are getting better now.
After years of talking with bio mom, we get a call, SS stole $1500 from Mom and SD. She asks us what we think she should do. For years now we have tried to work with her to tighten the reigns on the boy and has brushed us off with "the court gave me custudy for a reason!" Now she wants are help. Honestly, I think she is just toying with us. I have some ideas but I know she will not follow through on any of them. This kid is so messed up and each situation gets worse. Just needed to vent. Any suggestions. How do we get BIO mom to wake up ..
As I've stated before, my step dad & I don't get along very well. I've tried hard to establish at least a friendship with him, but he won't have it. Oh well. His loss. There is a lot of resentment on both sides & jealousy on his part, but I'm starting to see the real problem, which is my mom. She has no clue about healthy boundaries... trust me. The boundaries set between us are the ones I laid out. Obviously I'm the one in the adult role here.
