I have been doing this step parenting thing for almost 16 years....yes you have read that number right. I am soooooooooo DONE!! I have 6 months left before my last step child graduates from high school. If she makes it past her 18th birthday which is in March. I think she will move out just like her older brother did. Then not graduate, also just like her older brother.
I have had it with my skids. Granted, I no longer have to deal with or hear from my step son. He is 20 and has a 1 year old son he never sees and is unemployed and living with his mother. A loser for all intents and purposes. I mean the mother of his 1 year old he barely knew for one month before she got pregnant. Now he doesn't speak to her or see the baby.
My step daughter, is a senior in high school and i have had it up to my freakin eyeballs with her. This girl is more manipulative than her brother ever was. She is way more covert. She LOVES to push my buttons and I do try my hardest to ignore ignore ignore. But after awhile you can only take so much. That is what brought me here. I desperately need a place to vent my frustration and anger. Before I absolutely lose my mind.
I will delve into more detail about why she has gotten on my last nerve a little later. :::sigh::: I already feel a tad better.
