Last friday, my SS transitioned to our home. He reported to me that his mother and step-father befriended a homeless male adult that walked up to them while they were painting their porch, offered his help, and they ended up letting this man stay at their house. That first night, this man was found in SS's step-brother's bed. When SS confronted his mother about his fears regarding this man, his mother told him that he had nothing to worry about and that the man inadvertedly had gone to the wrong room. SS told his mother that this man could end up in his bed.
We have been to court so many times we can not afford an attorney so we went through the current order and changed it to how we would like to have it, tell me if I am missing anything or if we are asking for to much or if you can not understand something
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED:
DH and I are newlyweds. At times I am so glad we got hitched and other times I think what in the world did I get myself into. I have a BD7 and SS15. DH and I dated for 2.5 years before we got married. I never really was able to have a relationship with SS. The BM is a manipulative control jealous freak and SS is spoiled. When the two of them are not around DH and I have a great relationship including my BD. Anytime SS needs something I try to help DH anyway I can. However, BM is very demanding and controlling.
Thanks again for all the help you guys have given me this week. I think I've got my head straight, but let's just see how long that lasts.
I was wondering if anyone has seen that movie "The Stepmother" (or something like that) with Julia Roberts. I saw it a long time ago & I was wondering if you guys thought it was pretty accurate.
Anyhoo, I hope everyone has a good weekend. Take care,
Hipi
Okay, despite ALL of the negative crap that we have all been posting lately.... I want to share with you what my family did to make me smile this week...
DH- while he always makes me smile, this week his actions in the court room made me smile, standing up for me and our family. What an awesome man.
I can't help but think that it's temporary, but at least for now BM is controlling herself and acting like an adult. BF and I are ever so thankful! If things could just always be like this! Of course I'm sure that it's just because the court stuff is coming up on the 26th. But there's a teeny tiny chance that it might be sincere...I'm not getting my hopes up though.
I have been a SP for 5 years. I have 3 BS 10 years old and 12 years old with my first husband and a 3 year old with my CH. My CH has a 15 year old daughter from a previous marriage. Both of us have 50% legal and physical custody of our children. Since the beginning of this year, my 15 year old SD has been acting out. It started with skipping school, failing grades and lying about her whereabouts.
Ok so for the past few months DH has been working out of town, he comes home about once a month. So my question is, should SS7 still be coming for his weekend visitation? He has his little sister here, and I like having him here, most of the time. On occasion I will request not to take him, or just for one night, like when DD is sick, or stuff like that. But often BM will say he's not coming cuz DH isn't home. So I was just wondering what everyones take on this is.
SO last nighht we told my parents about the baby!!!! Yeah!! Everyone's excited. Then DH feels how he has to give a little speach about how it's important to trat SD 7 equal bn/c she feels left out. I wanted to kill him. First of all he neglected to mention his other daughter 2 ANd I just feel like he had picked a pooor time to discuss this with MY parents. He thinks that SD is left out but really she's just a jealous little sh*t who can't deal with anyone else gettting attention.
I called the skids' school yesterday and tried to get info about their grades and attendance because BM doesn't say anything other than "they are doing fine" Yeah well that is what she said last year and SD almost failed the fourth grade. But b/c I am not legally married to him yet they wont give me any info but they will send it to me in the mail. Makes NO SENSE!!!!!!!!
