So Prom-Gate:

Its Toxic Trolls week to have SD15/16, and its Prom weekend. Last week, Husband had taken SD shopping and bought the dress - she picked out a really cute tube type dress with gathers and spaghetti straps, in a deep burgundy color. Its a 20's theme, so shes been online doing research and ordered a feathered headband, some glass pearls, a faux fur stole, and all that jazz. I lent her another string of (real frsshwater) pearls from my collection as well as a sweet vintage beaded white purse. Im having so much fun watching this creative process unfold.

Its been about 2 months since Feral Forger Sd23 moved out of Toxic Trolls apartment. Things were peaceful. She moved aproximately 2.5 hours away from us. No drama. 

Until Wednesday evening I was casually chatting with SD15almost16. Feral Forger had taken a train into town, paid for by hr boyrfriend and not contacted or mentioned it to Dh. And neither did SD15/116 nor Toxic Troll apparently.

When she had left, as told to me, she called Toxic Troll and wanted to move back in with her because she had lost her job and couldnt pay rent. This is the story:

SM - things have shifted greatly this year. Toxic Troll works (!) and her schedule is the same as the school schedule, so she picks up SD15.5 after school on her weeks, and sometimes on DH's. She got money for her tax returns claiming Sd, and spent $ on her ROTC Cadet Ball. In fact she took her to purchase everything, on Dh s week, nothing came out of pockets. And we were not asked nor were we included in anything. 

Ok, so we have worked things out to where Dh will work on Toxic Trolls car "for the childs safe transport", as well as lack of stress in regards to family court threats and increased child support payments. He pays 347 monthly for SD15.5 which is on the low end and it hasnt been reviewed or increased since the first child support modification order over 4 years ago. I would rather swallow my anxiety and hatred than have her get one more penny.
