I know I shouldn't hate him but I do! SS12 is a lieing sneaky, manipulative,selfish,self important, lazy, mouthy little asshole!! I am just sick of having to do all the parenting here and BM does nothing and DH has given up!! I just don't want him here anymore!! He is in trouble for kicking out a $1000 door at our business and he is supposed to be grounded and working off the cost!! So BM takes him to an amusement park this past weekend and he was supposed to come home after school by himself and put in wood to help pay off the damages... what did he do..

but bm is a mother of the year even though her new dog attacked ss and made his eye swell up and gashed his forehead...gives him gum which he sticks in his hair, and oh yeah, didnt even take him to the doctor when the dog attacked him.

dh told bm that if the dog bites ss one more time hes calling the police or demanding that she put the dog down (thats how bad the bite is)...bm said she was already planning on that...this was NOT a playful puppy bite, ss was full on attacked...could have very well lost his eye if the dog would have bit any more.

Sometimes my ss says things that really break my heart. I really know now why dh has custody of him because of bm and the way she treated ss. Ss will say things like I am stupid, no one cares about me, I cant learn. Dh has told me along with dmil that bm was telling ss that he had a learning disability and that it was ok to fail when it came to school. Well it's not ok with me if he fails here as a former teacher I want both of our children to excell when it comes to all things that life has to offer. Sometimes I just want to grab dbm and say what the heck were you thinking?

I love that I belong to this group of very specail people on this site. I was just wondering how many other people are expecting? And how far along are you?

I feel like i have so much to say and write.... this is my safe haven.... i have made many changed in my life recently in regards to my FDH and FSD. I feel like i know what i must do, but in that choice there is a great amont of sadness.... i am curious on the opinions of the many individuals that are facing similar family situations. I have written blogs in the past and have recieved a lot of great advice... but i just need some advice once more... In August my BS who is 6 told me that he was missing money from his wallet, i listened but didnt react, he then told ne this again...

This has come up in random family conversations. DH and I have one. I had more assets entering our marraige than he, but it wasn't really that. We did one because me ExH tried to bleed me dry. I got to keep most of what I had, but after lawyers fees it is certainly less. My question is this: In a second marriage situation or any marriage for that matter, what are your feelings on Prenup's?

(**If this has been posted before, sorry!**)

So wow... I never thought that prenancy could be such a total life makeover. I knew being a new mom would be difficult and trying but I say again wow. I have no urge to do anything other then eat and sleep. If I try to do anything else I generally feel nauseus enough to merit laying down and going to sleep. So heres my issue.
We are getting my SD on the 20th of Dec for two weeks.

It all started in aug we got all calll to come get his kids. their bio mom had a stroke wich turns out was a lie. they told us she had it that day but really it was months before. found out later that 13 year old sd had a fight with her step dad.the real reason we made a 4 hour drive to get them.well i was so happy to get to have them here with us .until they went home for their first visit and came home diffrent kids they no longer wanted to listen and started lying about stuff.the 13year old sd.

I just want to send some love to all of the SMs and BMs on this site who feel slighted, hurt, misunderstood, and are really trying their best to deal with situations that can bring out the worst in any person.

I understand how it feels to be caught in the middle of the "battle" and constantly take shots from all involved and not feel supported at times.

Well, everyone is coming up with monikers for their skids, so I've decided on some for mine:

SD15 is Sleeping Beauty. She is the spitting image of my MIL, who was a model. She is a beautiful girl!

SD12 is Annie. She doesn't look like Annie (no red, curly hair) but she has the same spunk that Annie has.

There are my new monikers for my skids!
