I feel like a horrible, horrible person but I wish to never, ever see my husband's bd again! I have 2 children, 8 & 11 a& his bd is 8. She is rude, manipulative, devious and lies like no other! I have ended my relationship because I do not trust to be in the same room with for fear of what she will come up with next. She has lied about bd 'beating her up'. She finally admitted she lied. She's made lies about bs and finally admitted to it. Same with me.
So my baby is two weeks old today. He's my first biological kid and for the first time since I've been a SM have I really realized how horrible the step kids biological mom's are. I CANNOT grasp the concept that they just leave their kids.
No offense against our wonderful dad's who post , but what i am about to report is indeed a "most" statement not an "all" statement.
i am feeling that ever familiar rage again today. why? because i hate crazy people! just thinking about how twisted and corrupt their image is of us tears me up. do they actually believe we are the bad guys? how can they?!!!! ALL we want is to spend time with sd and for those four days a month, they hate us, they tear us apart, they blame us, and they pick pick pick!!!! i just can't take it today. i really really really try to live my life happy and kind, always thoughtful of others and i definitely don't go about trying to ruin people's lives.
Our lawyer advised us to enroll SD in our HS asap, even before final custody papers have been drawn up. BM is dragging her feet on the papers and we want to have SD in our school district by thanksgiving. I just called the school and they said they won't admit her until all papers have been signed. I explained that SD would be living with us before the papers were official and she would need to be going to school. I was told that DH needs to contact the superindentant and explain the situation. I was also told that since I was "just the SM" it should be DH that called.
Boyfriend went away for four days yesterday to work, somehting extra to his normal job, leaving me with the crap he has currently left behind.
This week has probably been the worst for me. I tried to surprise my fiance by getting 2 tickets to a film I thought he'd enjoy (he never thinks to arrange anything himself!) Only he didn't want to leave his daughter alone in the house (she's 16!) - he was as slow as possible, so when I emerged from the bathroom, running late as usual, I found him sitting chatting with his daughter, still not having got changed and with no intention of leaving her! I went on my own.
Hi all! Found this site in my desperate quest for some answers i.e. am I going mad here?!
Met my fiance 2 years ago & we have bought a house together, causing resentment from both sets of kids really, as all have moved out from their home areas.
I am pondering of having kids, but I'm worried of how my skids would react to it because my children would definitely look different from the skids. I wonder if I'll be happier if I have my own kids that I can discipline and care for in my own way without having to stress and tell myself all the time that they are my skids not my biological child. So if anyone knows or have their own baby already please let me know. I intend to start a new life after my wedding but still want the skids to be part of our lives too.
Visit me and let's discuss the challenges and occasional joys of step-parenting.
