too many women play a victim role. and every situation they face they tend to see themselves as a victim. poor me!
We need to be strong, take what we want, take what we deserve - don't let sks, bms, idiot dfs treat us like crap.
My heart is hurting so bad right now. I don't care what kind of a parent you are, having to walk away from a sick 3yo who is begging you not to leave her there is the worst feeling in the world.
well on sunday night sd6 had to go back to her bm's house and when bm came to the door sd blurred out that she wants to go onto a shared care arrangement and bm told hubby that he was breaching orders by discussing these proceedings with sd however untrue as the orders don't state that but bm is convinced that we have now breached the orders and wants to make sure it's noted.
So, we had our monthly two hour supervised vistit (at the court house) with the younger two's BM right before school started. Well, she had insisted the visit before that she wnated to buy the kids shoes for school. Mind you, she claimed the last time we were in court 3 years ago can only work 5 hours a week b/c of the stress we've put her through and only pays $110/month for TWO KIDS!! (The other BM pays nothing.) Anyway, that's here nor there.
A couple of weekends ago, SS, BF and I were out walking in the woods, when all of a sudden SS got really sick to his stomach. He passed a little gas and thought he was fine. But then all of a sudden he was hiding behind a tree ashamed - you can guess what happened. So we rushed him to a bathroom and BF got him out of his soiled clothes while I ran to the car to get his bag of clean clothes. BF did what I thought anyone would do - he threw the soiled underwear away.
Well HOW DARE HIM! We got an email from BM:
A year or so ago my SD, then maybe 5, was struggling with loyalty/love issues for me. She said she "didn't want to hurt my feelings" but that she loved her BM more. I, of course, rushed to reassure her that those feelings are natural, that mommys are special, and everyone loves their mother with a special bond.
I am new to this and I have been reading a lot of these posts. It seems to me that the all recipes are quite similar:
This has been an interesting summer. I have enjoyed reading all of the posts and I really do appreciate all of the wonderful advice and support.
I am sitting here on the couch,watching Dancing with the Stars and I am going to head to the gym in half an hour. This show makes me think about things (in a good way) because this was the show the ex gf and I watched all the time. Reading the blogs and entries makes me wonder about all of these Step Parent relationship things.
I have to believe that most relationships do work out.
So after four years of failed attempts/conversations about joint custody his ex finally says "ok."
We both are in shock!- it is to good to be true.
Mainly b/c oldest(16) goes to school in our district and the school asked to look over the Parenting Plan and decided he should go to the school in her area b/c she is Primary custodial parent.
So she calls my H and says "ok, we will do joint custody. one week on- one week off- but you will still owe me child support-so we will lower it to $700.00 (instead of the $1400.00 we give her now.)"
Yes, This is great news!
