I am feeling relieved, knowing that finally we have given all the information to the courts and it will be in the hands of the judge. I know there are no guarantees, but right now I feel we are really doing all that we can. I sat with our attorney for two hours on Tuesday and gave much input to get this petition to read just so.
This is a genuine concern of mine that I don't feel I have an easy answer for. My stepdaughter is only 11, but she is 5'4 and developed. She looks about 15. She is also going through many of the emotional changes of puberty, like mood swings, etc.... My concern is this, she hangs on her father, my husband, much like a very small child would, say of 5 or 6. She drapes herself across him, sits on his lap, spoons him on the couch, and kisses him all over his face when she is in these positions.
BM's father was rushed to the hospital yesterday with a heart blockage. BM called BF from a phone somewhere to tell him to call her, and he did. She told him what happened and he was very supportive and understanding. He said that he would unblock her numbers so that she could call if she needed to with updates. She asked him to go get SS 2 hours early. Then she asked him to please not bring me with him. ?? Her father's in the hospital and she has more important things to worry about? I called him from work just to say hello, and he told me what was going on with her dad.
HB and I went to see the lawyer today about child support and full custody. Lawyer said it's an open and shut case. AWESOME!!!!! You guys don't know how great this is. It's been a long 3 years. BM is going to be served at her place of work. OOOOPS! How embarassing. Serves her right for all the crap she's put my HB and my SKids through. You know what the funny thing is...She never saw this coming. BM thought just cause she ALLOWED the kids to live with us, she had no responsibility for them, and HB would not persue it. How dumb! So tonight I'm dancing a jig.
As I write, my DH is in counseling with his ex and their two kids. The daughter wants a modification to sever her responsibilities for visitation with her dad, and his son, is so mixed up, he's afraid to do anything without his sisters approval. I feel so responsible.
well as most of you know today was the hearing for shared care...
well as it turns out the courts will not change current orders unless there is a major concern for the wellfare of the child...
if you want amendments done you need to come to an agreement with the other party and do it via consent minutes of order.
the likelyhood of that friggin cow agreeing to us being in sd-6 life is slim to never figgin gonna happen....
Seems like now my fiance is putting more obvious priority on me since his son is acting up.
This is probably going to start even more attitude. I am thinking he is not a regular teen... he never goes outside, has no friends really except some chat IM people who in reality could be anyone... and he doesn't act like a normal boy his age.
Even his father thinks that... maybe he just has a weird personality? Gay?? Misunderstood?
There are two types of priceless people and they are: the one who will comfort us, give us support and love us unconditionally and be a friend. and then there is the other one, who will test us, push us to our breaking point, make us muster courage that we never thought we had, these people make us stronger.
(quote from the tv series: "Dawsons Creek")
so to all of you step parents who think they have had enough with the BM and Skids, remember that these people play just as important role in your life as your loved ones!
I do not know if any of you watched the Oprah show a few days ago, I did not but a friend of mine watched and told me that the show had to do with step parents and step children and the advice is that SM are to act as if they are the child's Aunt. Not to play a 2nd mom but be an aunt, what do you all think?
So I woke up this morning and SS had already left the house 1/2 and hr before he had to catch the bus (he was over at his friends house who he catches the bus with) so I was up with bio-son eating breakfast and I saw SS walking by the house on the way to the bus stop,(He is going over to BM after school today) now it is pouring down rain and there is a storm SS was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and no jacket.
