BM's list of grievances
DH cornered BM on the phone today and let her know that we will not be tolerating any more crap from her mom. Since the last time I talked about GBM, she has escalated things.
So BM launched into a list of her grievances. They are as follows:
She doesn't like that she can only talk to them before bed time.
She is mad that we don't answer the phone every time she calls.
I shouldn't use the house phone for work b/c it ties up the line.
It isn't fair that we are punishing GBM when she is a sick old lady.
We shouldn't listen in on the SD's phone calls even if they are on speakerphone.
It is just ridiculous. I shouldn't use the house phone for my job...you mean the phone that I pay for! DH just told her that he was trying to keep her in contact with the kids in the way that is the least disruptive. The judge told DH that he should only give BM 5 minutes a night to talk to the kids. We have been giving her 20. She says its not enough time. DH told her that he wasn't going to compromise, as he thought the at he was being fair. She just didn't want to hear it. She started begging him. Then she tried to guilt trip him about her other kids. Then she started yelling at him about not doing the right thing for the kids. This all took place in the span of a minute. DH finally told her one last time that the times were not going to change and stop guilt tripping the kids. When she started to argue, he hung up on her. It's just ridiculous that she actually badgers the kids about calling her and tells them that they don't love her if they don't call more often.

Agree. Phone calls invite all
Agree. Phone calls invite all the he said/she said bullshit.
La la la la la la la la. Why
La la la la la la la la.
Why do these nutty BMs think anyone cares about their little grievances?
1. DH shouldn't talk. Email
1. DH shouldn't talk. Email or text only.
2. If DH does listen to her spout her nonsense, he doesn't need to tell YOU about what BM said. It is a bunch of shit and specifically designed to get both of you riled up. Which she did.
