out of the mouths of a step child
My FSIL is 22 and her parents divorced when when she was about 4 years and both of her parents remarried. Anyway, they all get along and the other day FSIL said to me "my parents were ment to have me while they were married and that's all". I thought it was pretty profound coming from such a young person. She is smart, funny and very well rounded and both sets of her parents are the reason behind her being this way.

Are we wrong..
Is BF wrong to ask for joint legal and physical custody when BM is asking him to pay half of all their son's expenses - insurance including co-pays and non reimbursed expenses, clothes, transportation costs for parenting time and appointments and the like, child care, school stuff, activity fees, sports stuff (the last 3 are in the future)?
Why should BF offer or be required to pay half if he does not get equal custody/time with the child?

BM says the darnest things
BM finally replied to a email sent this past Friday. She was rather crabby and rude in her email. Here is one of the things she wrote..
You chose to move 66 miles from where baby and I live. I refuse to be punished any further for your choice.
Apparently, BF is punishing BM by moving 66 miles away. WTF!! BF did not even know baby was his until 2 weeks after he moved. He had nothing to stay in that town for, he closed his shop (his dream), BM got the house, he needed a fresh start and got me in the deal!

Again BM is clueless
I should not be surprised since BM does some stupid things but this takes the cake. We picked up FSS at 3pm today. BM woke him up. He was in his car seat, not buckled in, on the kitchen table sleeping. BM hands FSS over to BF in a onesie and nothing else. No pants, no socks, nothing but his diaper and onesie shirt. Keep in mind its like 50 degrees, sunny and breezy outside. BF says "naked baby" to which BM replies, "he gets hot". We get FSS to his grandparents house and his diaper is soaked and he smells horribly of spoiled milk and sweat.

What is BM thinking?
As most of you know, my BF and BM are working out child support, parenting time and custody themselves per their divorce. Anyway, things have been going pretty well so far. BF and I came up with some other stuff he would like - thanks to all who gave suggestions - and we emailed them to BM. BM emailed back stating as follows...

My ex is such a liar
My BD7 called me on Sunday stating she wanted to come home now and she was sick. BF has her until 6pm and it was only noon and he lives over an hour away. BD was sad and upset and said she did not feel well. I told her daddy could bring her home because I was not home to meet him but her sister 12 was home to recieve her. My ex called back and asked what BD's problem was and that she said I said he could bring her home if he wanted to. Anyway, it seems my BD7 was upset cause her friend from upstairs - he lives in a duplex - had to go to church.

BM does not get it
BF and his family (parents, brothers and their wives, and me) got together last night to celebrate his fathers birthday. BF asked BM if he could take BS to this dinner and she agreed. BF would pick up BS 6between 6:30pm and 6:45pm at home and BM would pick up BS at the restaurant at 9pm. BF forgot to call BM from about 15 minutes away and when we arrived she informed us we were early and we did not call. We were not early, we arrived at 6:32pm. WTF!! BF apologized for not calling, I forgot that in the email comfirming everything that BF was to call her when we were close.

are you kidding me?
We sent BM a new part of the proposal last Wednesday. She finally responded today - 7 days later. Plus BM has the balls to give BF a deadline (April 30, 2008) for figuring this all out or she is getting a mediator. If they get a mediator, BM will drag this out forever and cost both of them lots of time and money. She dragged her feet during the divorce and even changed lawyers. Pretty much all the money BF got out the divorce went to his lawyer. BM had not been forth coming with insurance costs and even her boss is helping her to pull the wool over BF's eyes.
