I hate to call names...
but BM is a lazy, lying, self absorbed bi*ch! In april SS5 had his kindergarten round up. He was supposed to have his screening before he turned 4 but BM NEVER did it. The deadline to have it in is July 1st for him to start school this fall. In April SO, BM, and I had a huge discussion/fight. Somewhere in there, SO sent a text that said "When does SS go in for screening?" BM responds with "WTF again none of your concern he has a screening apt I will bring him to thanks."
Topic was dropped and we expected to hear about it the day of or something. Well we have still not heard a word about it. So today I called the district and asked if he had been screened yet or if he at least has an appointment. Low and Behold... not screened yet and no appointment made. I asked when we could get him in and I was told that they literally only had one appointment left for the entire summer and It isn't until Aug, 22nd. Of course it is after the deadline. She told me that providing he passes all of the tests right away, he should be able to start school the second week of school. If he doesn't pass right away he may not be accepted til next year because we will have no time to work on him with things and get him re tested!!! I am beyond furious!! Our huge fight was about how she doesn't put him first and how she procrastinates for everything. She wont give SO the power to do these things (she wont give him SS's SSI# or his insurance cards) SS has never been to the dentist. He had his 4 yr check up two days after his 5th bday. BM forged the paperwork saying that he had a physical and his shots for preschool. It goes on and on. I tell you what. If SS can't go to school next year and is home ALL year... I am going to go nuts. I love the kid to death but since we have him M-F and every other saturday, I need a break every now and again.
Not to mention the fact that it will only hurt him if he is out of school for an entire year. He does great when he is in school consistantly. Even when he would miss a day of preschool because he was sick... there were negative impacts. He needs to be pushed, reminded, nudged, and pointed in the right direction. At one point she wanted to home school him and we argued that one. He can't just sit down and learn... he needs to see other kids doing it too and he needs someone other then mom or dad to tell him what he has to do and he knows there is nothing he can do about it.

Wait, if you have him M-F and every other Saturday, who has custody of him?
If you don't have birth
If you don't have birth certificate, it is easy to order a new one and then get the SSI#
When DSO got full custody of his kids, BM didn't have or said she didn't have their birth cert., SSI cards or any of the important stuff and DSO was able to go get it taken care of pretty easily.
There is zero court order for
There is zero court order for custody. The only CO in place is child support. They worked out custody on their own but that means that BM is custodial Parent by default.
Its not BMS responsibility to
Its not BMS responsibility to provide dh with the SS card and such. Have him happy for another copy and it will be sent to him. Call the insurance company and have them send you a card for him.
When we got custody of my woods, we got nothing. We had to apply for a copy of their birth certificates....then we took that to go get social security cards.... We then had the documentation to put them on our health insurance and enroll them in school.
A little leg work will save you a lot of aggrivation. You know you can't could t on bm, so stop counting on her. Dh is just as much (well, more really) a parent as bm, he is just as capable to get this stuff done.
But how awful for your SS. To be held back a year already because of his moms incompetence. Esp when she was reminded and was prissy about how she had it all under control. I don't get why the deadline e is so early though..esp if they have booked appointments all the way through the summer. If there aren't enough appointments to screen all the kids before the deadline, what are parents supposed to do?
