i am so bloody pissed off currently, as hubby has just gone and pick up step daughter and once again we have recieved her in absolutly filthy clothing, and dirty herself ( with old poo stains in her underwear) and again we did not recieve all our belongings back. i am so sick of paying for clothing, shoes and assesaries for this little girl just to lose it to that friggin' womans house. so i had hubby call and ask for her to return the things at the end of weekend access but she didn't answer the phone so i sent her a text that was very direct and straight to the point.
Well, here we go again. If the 10pm phone call last night wasn't enough (and it's not even our week) we get another one of those phone calls from her delivered through the 8 year old ss. This time...ss wants to play sports. That's fantastic and all, I love sports and want to see him involved in as many activities as he can since she won't let him have "friends"...but here we go again.
Hi I am curious to find out what form of discipline you have in place or used in the past. My BF has a son that will be 1 yr old in Sept. The dilemmea I am having is SS is exhibiting bad behavior between households. My BF is very involved in SS life as BF has gotten SS for weekend visitation since SS was 2 weeks old. We also generally have SS every weekend and had SS the whole month of July. During the month we had SS, he had very few temper tantrums. Now when we get SS, he is throwing major temper tantrums i.e.
Hello.
I am new at this. I decided to join because I have been feeling very stresses and depressed lately. I am a stepmother of two boys 13 and 11. My fiance's ex-wife is trying really hard to break our relationship. I feel that my friends do not understand me much because they are not in the same situation. I love my fiance and his kids but lately I am wondering if it's worth it to go through so much pain. Thank you.
Ok, so my DH over compensates constantly for BM's lack of parenting. BM gives no discipline or shows no love towards SS. All discipling has to be done at our house, DH has talked to BM many times about situations that have arisen at school or daycare where SS would come home with disciplinary notes to see what BM has done to try and correct the issue and say or we talked about it and that would be it.
I'm sick of this situation, I'm sick of living with someone's elses mess. I will not allow this woman (his ex) to constantly attack me and my family, and given that my husband refuses to go to extremes necessary to protect his family from the verbal and emotional attacks we go through every day.
OK, here goes the school story, which is causing a lot of fights/anger/annoyance between the "D"H and me.
When I was still insane and determined to stay with the whole clan at the end of last school year, I knew that SD would be going from middle school to high school...where my oldest son was last year, and will be for the next few years.
Well, my son always had an issue with that. SD drives him up the wall and he wants NOTHING to do with the girl.
After hearing all of you out and investigating how I really feel about the whole situation, I have decided not to write the SD a letter. I am afraid I can't offer any closure or comfort of any kind.
I tried several times to do it, but it always seemed like too much, not enough, dishonest, too honest, etc. There is no happy medium. Par for the course, I suppose, considering there was never a happy medium in our household.
Please help if you have any suggestions I would gladly welcome them.
