Diesngage or leave? Really? There have to be other solutions!

manicmom's picture

I'm really tired of the advice or comments about difficulties being to either disengage or leave. Neither of them solve anything and both are the easy way out. Why not put some work into something and have it come out better in the end? Is the point of this site to HELP or just to encourage eachother to QUIT? I knew my DH had kids when we got married, I didn't know what holy terrors SD15 would be, but I'm not stupid and I'm not blind. It's a challenge for sure, but it's overcomming challenges that builds relationships.

I feel bad for BM

not really. I think she is having a really bad month (last month) but I also think that she brought it on herself. Smile It started when I finally told her how I felt about her the 1st week of May. I told her that I didn't like her and asked her to stop txting me. (it was like the 3rd txt from her in a month, i ignored the first 2) BF says that she doesn't take rejection well, so I am sure that she started planning to get rid of me.

The cycle won't stop!!!!! SD15 is jerk, DH is a guilt daddy...and I am dizzy!

SD15 is so horrible that DH has even said that if she wasn't his kid he wouldn't like her. But for some reason he expects me to?? I've done all that I can think of to build a relationship with this kid! I've let her do things that she wants and convinced DH of it for her, offered to buy her things and clothes, given her "girl" advice, gotten her cute hair cuts that she picked out, taken her to do things her dad never thought to do...and put more effort in to her than any of the other three kids! All the while she's cruel, disrespectful, and takes every nice thing and stabs me in the back.

DH spoke to SS about the car and I am NOT happy

DH talked to SS and told him he would spend 1500 on a used car and that BM would have to pay for gas and insurance. But then SS goes on a rant on how unfair it is that our BS got a nicer car. And then he says how his mother cannot afford anything. He called my husband a jerk who could not even look after him. That he had to live in a dump. How kids made fun of him at school because of the clothes he wore. That we would not let him take clothes we bought him home with him. Can you blame us? We would never see those clothes again.

SD13 - Need advice please (a little long)

I have blogged before about SD13 but I’ve never gone into details on the behavior of SD13 or her sister (SD15)…I don’t plan on going too much into detail, but before anyone throws out “well, they’re teenagers”, please keep in mind that their GM (SO’s mother-who is lenient as HELL) has banned these girls from being in her home without SO present.

Seems like a lot of us had a hard day:

Hope some of these one liners give you a small smile or chuckle.

If I have to "put my big girl panties on and deal with it" many more times, I'm gonna wear out the elastic and really show my a**!!

If you have a man that cheated on you, send the new girlfriend flowers and thank her for saving your life!

Awwwww, I missed you. *Reloads Gun* But I won't miss again!

Nah. I don't have an attitude problem, well I have an attitude but it's not a problem lol

I don't need anger management...don't piss me off and I won't get angry!

SS EXTREMELY Childish

Quick synopsis...

SS is soon to be 19..has another year of high school left and will graduate..IF he gradates..when he's almost 20. Mommy felt he had to be left behind. He spells horribly..has no attention span and defies all authority at school and is in ISS quite a bit. He's missed enough school that they have threatened to dismiss him if he misses anymore. He's an adult and they see him as that..no longer a minor.
