How screwed up is this. Jon Cryer took his ex wife back to court to get the 8 grand he pays his ex wife reduced. He has custody yet he pays her. The judge dismissed it & ordered him to pay her court fees. In denying the thesp's petition, the judge cited family law section 4053, which stipulates, "Child support may therefore appropriately improve the custodial lives of the household to improve the lives of the children."

The comments on the story was just as interesting, most agreeing just cuz he makes a lot of money he is raising the child not her.

why is it so hard to talk with me first???

I was down sized 2 weeks ago from my job of 8 years. We are in noway financially set for this to happen. I spend my waking hours searching for work & trying to figure out ways to save money. My dumb ass husband just copied me on an email he sent to BM.

BM,

I realize that this is “your” weekend, but I would like to go with SS11 on this Canoe Trip/Campout. I think it’d be great fun and a great bonding experience between me and my son.

Please let me know what you think.

Dh sucks at communication

I just learned last night that we have SS from today through Tuesday when their mom gets off work. It's our holiday so I knew we had them through Monday, but had no idea about Tuesday. My daycare lady was off this week & will only be back on Wed so I had to take vacation on Tues, Thurs BS is going to my coworkers house ( he is friends with her kids & she has a girl that comes to her house ) and Friday DH is taking off. I could have just paid the kids again & saved my vacation day.

Too funny

So this week my daycare provider is on vacation so I am paying my two SS's 13 & 11 to watch their brother. We are on day three & it has been going great. I have had to do a bit of picking up when I get home, but other than that the place is pretty clean. BS almost 4 is loving it, he likes not having to leave the house and having his brothers there with him.

Bullying- being made fun of

SS 11 plays baseball. BM is an assistant coach for his team this year. Their team has not won a single game all season & pretty much suck. None of the kids are very good. Because all 3 kids are playing ball & someone needs to be home to get work done I haven't been at any of his games and only to a couple of ss13's. DH hasn't been to that many because he has been taking SS13 to his or coaching BS t ball with me.

Do you think it is wrong

for a parent to tell their child that their actions are hurting their feeling? Because of the holiday, the boys activities & the fact that DH can never get out the door early at work we have barely seen the kids in the last three weeks. What used to be an hour & a half is now a half hour at best a night, our once a week dinner night has been non existant since baseball started. Last night would have been perfect to have them stay late but BM is an assistant coach & suggested that SS11's team have an extra practice ( because they are awful & are loosing by 20 runs a game)

Kids Events school or sport

Does anyone elses spouse guilt them or just expect that they attend everything. Before I had our son I did go to most of the kids stuff, but as DS almost 4 has gotten older & more difficult to sit still for longe periods of time I have quit going this last year. DH always guilts me. I really think SS11 could care less if I came or not ( he has gotten so aloof & odd over this last year ) and to be honest I just don't want to spend what little free time I have going to a badn concert.

DH gets upset when I tell him, you may need to be there but I don't.

BM always in control

So because of the holiday & all the kids activities we have hardly seen the kids this month. I really hate this. We had hopes since there were no ball games tonight that we could have the kids for our dinner night tonight & they could go with us & dismantle the used swingset we bought this weekend & need to pick up tonight, well yesterday when DH asks BM ionforms him that SS11 has a band concert tonight. When Dh says something about no heads up, she comes back with " well I just found out Thursday" What, she couldn't email on Friday???

so angry

Why is it always my fault. Tonight dh spent the entire evening that the kids were here fighting with me about vacation. He is bound and determined we are taking a vaacpatiin whether we can afgord one or not. Because he is lazy and didn't submit his work mileage even though I begged him weekly to do it, he cost us around a grand, which we were going to use. He is pissed at me at me because I won,t depleat or savings to take the kids on vacattion. So that the kids could know what an evil bitch I am he faught all through dinner with me infront of my poor skids and bs.

OT- does anyone belong to any foodie forums or parenting forums?

Hey ladies, I am doing a research project at work to see what consumers are consuming media wise around, healthy food & family nutrition. I belong to Cafe mom & Ivillage for non step parenting, but am not a huge foodie type. I am really interested in the 18-34 year foodie old market as well.
