OMG I so need to vent! Geez, what is wrong with me telling my SS11 to go outside to find something to do?? [Just a bit of background, my SS11 is overweight, 132 pounds and wears men's 32 waist pants. Three different doctors says he obese. We get no help from biomom. When he's at her house, he does nothing but watch tv and/or play video games.] OK, so SS has been here since Sunday evening, (Cause husband wanted him here so he's not at his mom's work all spring break playing video games). And this entire time, he's done nothing but play video games, hmmm.... We live in Houston, and the weather has been bad and raining, even flooding, for the last 2 days. But today was nice, I went and ran a few errands. When I got home around 2:45, I told SS to go outside and ride his bike or find something to do.

He goes outside, to the husband's mancave out back to play games. I said no, We're not going from sitting in one room to another, or playing video games from one room to another. That he could go ride his bike, walk around the neighborhood, go the park 2 blocks over, something. So he left.

The husband gets home just now and I told him I had SS go outside to find something to do. He looks at me, sighs, rolls his eyes then gets mad at me! Really?? Mad at me for telling your kid to go outside, smh! Then he says he's going to take ss to the mall and let him walk around. I said how is that any different than walking around in the neighborhood. That if y'all go to the mall, y'all will spend money, which wer're trying to watch our spending lately. I then suggested he go find his son and walk around or do something with him. Cause that makes too much sense. Oh well.
