going nutty

So bs11 came home from school and they had an assembly today that was about the red wings. They sent home a paper that you can get front row tickets for 40 bucks.. great deal but after 5 people that's to much. So before he even asks if we can go he says "I'm gonna ask dad to take me because you don't have enough money" mind you dh just paid for bs to play travel football which was 300 bucks. I stay home and go to school full tome while my dh works his butt off for us. I blew up in bs for his comment. I'm so tired of dear daddy getting credit for things because he married a sugar mama. Dear old daddy is way behind in cs but always has new toys for him and the boys. Where we who actually put a roof over their heads and food in their bellies get shafted. Am I over reacting?

That's just great, instead of helping to provide for his needs BD just buys him his wants! Maybe if he payed CS you could not only continue providing shelter but also get him some cool gadgets. My BD never paid CS and I never mentioned a word to my BS. I don't know if that helped or not. Sometimes I don't think he understands how much I sacrafice to give him things because of lack of help.

I get what you are saying completely but at the same time it was thoughtful of your son. A lot of kids dont understand and get mad if you dont have the money and it sounds like he didnt want to put you in the position where you would have to say no. But again i am not missing your point at all.

We do a ton for all three boys. Ss and two bs. I didn't tell bs that his dads a pos but I did tell him to talk to people like that. Bmg it was his attitude that went behind the comment that set me off.
