Bad day...
Nobody wants to contribute money.
Neither of the men who took part in the creation of my children has paid child support in almost 6 months.
BM won't reimburse the $150 she owes for the sports programs DH signed the girls up for.
All the kids have been sick and two (one biokid and one skid) have taken trips to the doctor. No reimbursing of copays or prescriptions from BM or exH.
Nobody wants to help pay for anything but me.
I submitted to the court reimbursement for the therapy sessions for my BS12. Lawyer said don't be surprised if you DON'T get it. Probably cost me more in attorney's fees to submit the paperwork than I'll ever get back. Only reason he needs therapy is because biodad is forging his way back into his life. It's cost almost $600 and therapist will charge yours truly by the hour when she testifies in court.
It's not fair.
I don't know how I got here. I have always been the responsible one and done all that is required of me for all these kids. But here I am...sucking it all up because that's what I do. I continue to contribute more than my fair share and to what end? No one involved even begins to give a shit. My desire to make the best of things has enabled the whole lot of them to expect me to take care of it all.
I am really, really beaten down today...

:( I'm sorry
too much hitting all at once, and you holding the bag. I'm sorry CG, this is all horrible, and of course no one of these deadbeats sees beyond their own situation, or gives a rat's ass if all these other people are f*cking you over at the same time.
I hope you have someone nearby to give you a good hug, you deserve it!!!

I have had situations I wonder too how did I get here ...
my heart goes out to you CG.
no one deserves (ok maybe some evil bioparents) what is happening to you.
PM me if there is anything I can do to help!!

I'm sorry....
Some people just suck! Hang in there.

I hear you and I feel your pain
My week has been it's own mixture of compassion for SD's pain, anger for her indifference and ingratitude, and heavy weights on my shoulders to the point where my neck and right shoulder blade have frozen. I can't turn my head to look around me (perhaps it's better that way at present.)
CG, can we start a SM retirement home and join up NOW?

Big hugs to you...
I am so sorry CG. I really wish the 'people' that can't get their heads out of their asses and live up to their responsibilities would just freaking man up already.... I hate to see you being taken advantage of and sounding so beat down. Prayers for better days are being said.
Hugs,
B
any better?
feeling any better CG??

Is it looking up?
I understand that feeling. How can being the responsible party mean you get left holding the bag of poo? I know it doesn't help much, but keep on going. You are doing the right thing. And, in the end, karma will prevail.
Take it easy.
