Last night we went to pick my stepson up for our regular Tuesday visit. He came kicking & screaming and yelling that he hates coming to our house and wants him mom. I have no idea why he would act this way. At that point I wanted to turn the car around and leave him at his grandma's house. We meet at a parking lot directly in front of his grandma's house (her mom) and she walks him across the street to us. He was hitting her and crying and making a huge scene. This really hurt our feelings.
every adult should read, because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator and I immediately wanted to paint another one. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals.
Had an interesting exchange with my son last night regarding Dad's GF...
I think he's being coached to keep things from me...
He was adding contacts to his e-mail and he was on the phone getting his Dad's & Gf's and we were giving him ours etc.. He says "I put 'GF' in under family" then he gets a strange look on his face....like he shouldn't have said that! I say "Ya, that's where she belongs...she's like your step-mom."
I live in New York. It's pretty nice here for a November day, but there's something really WRONG about sending my SD to school in her choice of sandals or flip-flops because her parents can't get their acts together.
It's been a while since I've posted here because I've been trying really hard to not let things get to me and be as supportive a family member as I can be...but last night was too much for me to handle on my own. I need some advise please!
My stepsons are 6 & 10, my daughters are 5 & 10. My ss and my daughter both go to the same school this year, so this is the first year that they are around the same group of kids. Well my daughter likes to say that ss is her brother, and he will say it isn't true or that she is lying. My daughter said this morning that the kids are believing him and not her. I have told her before to not say anything to him becuase I didn't want her to get into trouble for something that he started, so for the most part she doesn't say anything back to him.
During visitation days I am bombarded with emails warning me to stay away from her son, but when she needs to know if he's taken his medicine, had anything to eat, when he's coming home, etc. who does she ask? Me. She tells me that she hates me and wants me out of her and her son's life forever, yet she emails me constantly when I have no contact with her whatsoever. A few months ago she told me that she wouldn't do something because it would cause problems between me and my BF, yet any other day our relationship harmony doesn't seem to bear much weight on her mind.
Well folks the queen biatch was at her finest again last night. Kids arrived just before I got there and so when I pulled in BM was still there saying her goodbye's. I was at the door putting my key in the lock (which she didn't know I had my own key) and she came to the door and didn't have anywhere to go, and I said "Hi" and she couldn't get by without saying anything so she looked down and mumbled a hi and then slammed the door, which I thought she was going to break! What a biatch.
My 15 year old step son is deliberately mean to me. It doesn't matter what I do, he is disrespectfull. It is usually only when his dad is not around, but the other night his dad saw it first hand, and during the "fight" disucussion, the stepson said that he couldn't wait to see his mom because they laugh all the way to school about me. Now I know for a fact, this is true, because his younger sister said it was and she hasn't entered the lie to us stage yet. Do I address this issue with her, how can he respect me if his mom has no respect for me.
The stepfamily saga is no more on Desperate Housewives! Carolyn found out that her husband had been cheating on her so she went to his grocery store to “send him to be with Monique” (who is now dead). Lynette and Nora were in the grocery store and among the hostages. Nora started talking to Lynette about her “trying to take her daughter away” b/c Lynette and Tom had begun action to sue Nora for custody of Kayla. Carolyn, the gunwoman, heard them talking and questioned why they were making noise when she’d instructed them to be quiet.
