Yesterday DH said his SD has eating disorder and needs to see psychologist. The reason was BM called saying SD doesn't spend her prepaid food card on dorm food because they don't have healthy food. I didn't say anything. Disengage.

DH: Why didn't you say something?
A: What do you want me to say?
DH: You don't care about my children.
A: No, I don't. Especially after your daughter called my son and I "The people you live with."
DH: No she did not.
A: Really? Here the text she sent. Read it.
DH: She didn't mean it.
A: She meant every single word. So don't even think about it. Besides she didn't even bother to apologizes so don't bother
DH: But she needs help now.
A: Purpleeesss....
DH: what do you mean?
A: Listen here. Your daughter doesn't have eating disorder. Your son said she spent all of her money at the restaurant because dorm food sucks. Your princess has expensive taste and you know it. There! Happy?
DH: How do you know that? Don't call her that.
A: Your son said it last time he was here. Call him up and ask him...And I call her whatever I want.

There's my plan for disengage Sad

I'm assuming SD is in college.
My guess is that a lot of first years have the same disorder.

First. She wants to eat healthy. Where is she going and what is she actually eating?

Second. What is being offered at school? Schools usually have a mix of healthy, somewhat healthy, and of my gosh are they serving that food. I highly doubt she can't find something healthy in the mix.

Third. Sounds as if SD called mom for money using the excuse of no healthy food. BM bought the story and jumped to eating disorder so Dad will provide funds.

DH is a fool if he buys this story without investigation.

SD needs to be told to eat at the school and if she wants to eat elsewhere get a part time job and find it herself.

Before I shelled out extra money for off campus eating, I'd make a trip to the school and eat there with my child. I'd have to see for myself that there were no healthy choices.

Come here and give him a piece of your mind. I've been on here several times this weekend in order not to blow up at thoughtless DH. He's out of town on my birthday, on a road trip with ss30.

I got a call on my b-day where he brags about ss30 and totally forgot my birthday. I know he has a lot on his mind since the trip was for BIL's memorial but still it pisses me off. I really don't want to fight with him while he's driving heading home. I'd really like to tell him to shut the hell up about his POS son who's been nothing but an ass to me but oh how evil I'd be to suggest that...especially on my b-day.

Mouth shut, disengaging, gonna make sure we party it up when he gets back to make up for missing my special day.
