Lies of BM. I'm Upset

Stepson has a bad cough. He missed school Monday after coming back from BM's weekend visit. He went to school the rest of the week and went trick or treating. The cough came back from going out to get candy. We asked BM if he could stay home this weekend so that he didn't have to miss more school since it the cough had come back. She of course said no because she wasn't giving up her time. WELL she then added that if he was fed regularly and healthy then he wouldn't be sick and it's best that he is in her care for the weekend.

Stepson gets fed once before school, again at school with his friends, lunch at school then dinner with the family. For dinner we usually have some kind of meat, vegetable and fruit and he always has a glass of milk. How is that not regular or healthy? I understand she does this because we are in the middle of a court battle and she doesn't know what else to do, but when her lies are so just that A LIE to make herself look good it really bothers me. We picked up stepson on sunday from her. He hadn't eaten since breakfast and we ate dinner at 630pm. She had him during the lunch time because we didn't get him until 430pm. He usually eats things like burger king, mcdonalds, del taco, taco bell, buffalo wild wings and other junk while he is with her. The only good meal he gets is breakfast of pancakes and bacon because his grandmother makes it.

I understand the things she says shouldn't bother me if I know they aren't true but when I am the one who financial takes care of her son because DH is a stay at home dad now and she pays no child support and has him 4 out of 7 days a week, I know I am doing my best and all she is doing is using him, changing him, bribing him and not being the true mother she needs to be and still bothers/harasses DH and I it really takes a toll on me. I feed, clothe, provide medical insurance and care, and do any other thing he needs I provide. We always have groceries, he always has to brush his teeth and shower, we cut his nails and make sure he has good clothes for all weather.

We get harassed when he goes to other kids' house after school as if we just push him off on other people because we are lazy or something. He rides the bus home and plays with kids outside down the street and yet shes bombards us about who they are. She lets him go off with people we don't know and doesn't tell us and then both her and him lie about. She buys him games to bribe him. She won't take him to the doctor. My question is is why if we are supposedly starving him why hasn't she called CPS or filed a motion for change of custody? Well it's because she knows that isn't going on.

There is no reason to tell her anything or have any communication with her. All it does is lead to this kind of drama....

I have similar drama issues.(Maybe not the exact same thing).My SD9 sees her mother on weekends only (and some holidays). BM is nothing but a liar and it's spilling over to SD. I usually make a healthy meal every night...meat, starch, veggies. Well, one night I was feeling rather lazy and I bought and made hamburger helper. SD was on the phone with BM and told BM what was for dinner. BM threw a temper tantrum about unhealthy EVERY meal I make is. Now, this is coming from a woman who feeds her kid Mc Donalds all weekend for every meal. Also, your SS having a cough reminded me of the fact that my SD's BM does not give her prescribed meds on the weekends. She is required to take asthma and allergy maintenance meds. I went as far as getting BM her own set of meds to keep at her house (then again, she has moved 5 times in the last 6 months). Anyway, over the summer SD came home with a fever and sore throat. I rought her to the doctor and she had strep so I got her antibiotics. We sent them to BM's at her next visitation and SD said that her mother never gave her the antibiotics.
