BPD BM sends lovely email about SD16 3/4 and her long visitation this WE. Demands DH to make sure SD has everything she needs for the WE. WHAT? This SD has been doing changeover's for over 10 years now. This SD packs herself everytime, for over past 5 years. This SD is not a child anymore---how IDIOTIC is this? But, of course, this is coming from a 40yr old woman who still calls her Parents Mommy and Daddy, and those same BGP REFUSE to let SD's pack for any summer trips for themselves. PLEASE!!!!.

Ok so our baby is almost due and we got a new expedition to fit our growing family. I told SS12 that once the baby was born that he would have to take the thrid row seat with my other SS9 and my bio daughter 8 that way my bio daughter12 can help me with baby if need be. FH took it to heart and felt like I am excluding him from doing the samethings my Daughter dose, he thinks that since they are the same age that they can do the same things.

Apparently, my son, my beautiful, intelligent son is also the dumbest kid on the face of the freakin' earth!!

Spongebob gets home from school at 2:45. Truelight gets home from work at 3:00. For the life of me, I can't figure out how he can get in so much trouble in just 15 minutes, but he does almost each and every day.

okay, soooooo last week bm caused alllll kinds of drama starting tuesday saying that ss needs counseling for his anger issues...which was weird because she NEVER admits to any thing that happens at her house or that she is less than the perfect mother.

wednesday she asks dh to figure something out because she has to move to whitetrashville, and basically eludes to the fact that ss will be living up there with her. she texts things like, im not asking im telling you that im moving.

So last night the BF went to pick up the SKIDS for his mid week visit. Its SS5 and SD3. You guys ready for this? SD3 starts telling us this story about how when they went to bed the other night (yes BM sleeps with the children) that they discovered that the pet rats had eaten a hole in the blow up mattress that they all sleep on LMAO ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!???

I am so frustrated with doctors and the like. As you may remember, right before Christmas, BS11 went to the hospital for a staph infection in his kidney. Well, they cleared it up and scheduled a VCU test (basically a voiding urine test) to see if, in fact, he had reflux in the bladder. They had suspected reflux (back flow of urine to the kidney) b/c of the massive scaring he had on his rt kidney. They said that the scarring could've only come from infection (absent any surgeries). So, the did the test to double check, or confirm it, before they removed 1/2 the kidney.

I am so glad I found this site. I was about to blow. I didnt know if I was in the roght or wrong for feeling the way I do. It is nice to know I can talk to someone or i should say so many people out there that can relate on some levels. Heck just being a step parent is a hard enough level. Thank you to those of you who have responded to me and I now know I need to put my foot down!!!I will make it change. One way or another!!!!

H works the 3rd shift, I work the 1st so we wont need daycare. To make a long story short back in July... I had a big blow out with BM. I told H i wanted nothing to do with her nor will I have anything to do with her, dont involve me with nothing and i haven't in the past 6 months. BM calls my house knowing H is at work no lie 16 times in a matter of 10 minutes... Not sure what made her think i would answer at all if i didn't answer the first time.

I am a bio mom of a little girl who is living with her father and a step mom to a 13 yr old teenage boy. I am married to a man who refused to see the issues and constantly tells me I take everything wrong when it comes to his son. Wow where to start. I love bith kids the same. My step son has no respect for me at all. He talks to me like I am dirt and does not listen to anything I say. I ask him to clean his room and he pops something off to me. I ask him to do his homework and he pops off to me.

For the last four years, DH has had the kids EOW and for three hours on Tuesday. Because of the limited time he has with them, we try to find fun activities we can afford to do. Both of us feel these kids need extracurricular activities to #1 take their mind off of BM's perpetually horrible attitude towards DH and myself, and #2 to allow them to grow by networking with other kids. So, of course, the kids would go back to their mom and tell her about all the fun they were having over here. They were met with anger, hostility and guilt.
