Can someone explain BM logic to me?

I am taking SS7 to see the Therapist today because BM said that she couldn't get off work. This was decided weeks ago when BM and FDH went to see the Therapist together and I am only doing to because BM said I could IN FRONT OF the Therapist and because I am really worried about SS7. If we leave it up to BM it would never get done because she has no time for SS7.

self centered SKid - just go with it or explain the facts of life?

SS7 has been dying for attention lately and going through some anxiety issues. But he seems to think that everything revolves around him lately, what he wants, what he does, what he thinks he needs are more important than anything else. Basically a normal 7 year old. But with the anxiety issues it become a really big deal to him when I say something about it. But I want so bad to set the record straight and let him melt down (usually it's a fake melt down lately to get attention, sympathy or his way. that is what the Therapist said)

for example...

FDH and BM have a meeting today with Behavioral Therapist to talk about the issues we have been having with SS7. FDH has a LIST of concerns to go over with the lady most of which BM isn't going to like. But I told FDH in order to get the most out of the professional you have to tell her EVERYTHING no matter how it makes you or BM look so that they can sort through it all and find the problem and a solution to it.

At what point...

should your SO call a lawyer?

That has been a question on our minds for some time now. We tell people all the stuff BM does and they all say to call one but FDH and I worry that we don't have enough on BM to change anything. We don't want to waste the time and money and some times I wonder if I am ready to be a full-time step mom. But she is doing so much damage to these young kids that is makes me feel selfish to think that.

Currently we have EOW custody and joint legal custody

I thinks its normal

for SS7's first appointment with the behavioral Therapist they have asked that ONLY the parents attend, and not to bring ss7. FDH thinks that is weird but I think it's to talk about hte odd behavior and possible causes with out ss7 chiming in and maybe even to question their parenting and the divorce.

Suggestions on how to include Skids in wedding - welcome them into 'our' new life?

FDH and I are getting married in Oct and We have always wanted to include SS5 and SS7 in the wedding so that they feel and understand that this affects them but in a good way.

BM got re-married last year and it broke my heart because SKids were an after thought and in some cases even a bother. But now that they are married BM makes them call her hubby 'dad' but doesn't give him any 'dad' authority. SS7 admits to arguing with SDH and BM has complained that I am given TOO much 'power' over the boys.
