okay, so things are back to good with me and my hubby, but of course, now it's time to deal with bb drama bullshit. dh and bb have been attending seperate counseling session, as per court order, and their joint session is this month on the 19th. she sent dh a certified letter yesterday saying that she can't make it and that her schedule is just way too full. meaning that she is going to put off counseling for as long as possible so that dh can't see sd.
well hello to all and a big thank you to all who have stuck out my complaints and issues...
well we looked into a restraint order and found it does not suit our needs so we are going to have to file to court to have our consent minutes of order ajusted to deal with the issues of bm so this might become a long drawn out process that could get very nasty.
Most people on this site seem to strongly dislike the BM, myself included. And many of us have the same list of top gripes.
Do you think BM's have the same issues with us step-parents? I wonder what they would be? And do you think they have a web site like this one to vent?
It might be a first step towards "all getting along" if we had knowledge of our respective transgressions.
Why do you think they hate us so much?
SD has an opportunity to go to Washington DC on a class trip, she is in the 8th grade.
This, in my opinion, is a very important step in her education and morale.
Neither one of her bio parents have the money, but originally they told the child 1 yr ago each would pay half. Now, she is not going (unless I pull this stunt), This trip has to be paid for in the next couple of days or she misses out.
Should I pay for the trip? It could cause the BM to hate me more for spending so much money on her kid, it could cause the SD to like me more or to "USE" me more!
Question: Do you let your hubby read your posts/comments? I don't think I would, I mean he knows everything already but it almost feels dishonoring that I vent about him like I do. Just wondering...
Please comment. :o)
the reason why i decided to write this blog was mainly in response to sweetness's blog "ever want to ask DH what were you thinking", but I felt that it is a big enough issue it could use it's own blog. My SS looks like BM, the exact same face and habits/mannerisms. BM sends pictures of her and her dysfunctional family (meaning she has many kids with many men) home with SS every once in a while, this is how I know they look alike.
I hate mondays not because it is the first work day of the week, but because SS comes back from visitation with BM. Most people drink on Fridays and on the weekend, I usually make myself a drink or have a glass of wine about 7pm every Monday, because that is when SS decides to tell us about his weekend at BM's.
Wow, just a side note, I cannot believe the responses I have been getting. Everyone sees my point of view and that just blows me away considering I have been made to feel like an idiot and that my opinions are incorrect and invaild. You ladies are amazing!!! I also love it that you women are also step mothers who can relate--I absolutely cannot stand advice given, however well-meaning, by women who don't have a freaking clue and who aren't stepmothers or were stepchildren at one time. Anyway, continuing on...
forgot to add with my last blog the actions we are taking from here, we have the court date on september 21st and we are now going to file a resraining order against the mother to prevent her from enroling sd under the wrong name we are going to file that tomnorrow. hopefully this will cover the major issues we are having with bm currently which is her dening access and using a false name for sd as we have already sorted the issue of sd's property from our house being damaged by that woman as she is not allowed to take anything from our house to the other house ever....
well so much for our little improvements with sd as she was back to her old ways this weekend....
