Ran into YSD the other day-very awkward- got me thinking though

I was at the store the other day. Going down the aisle. I was with my mom. A girl comes into the aisle holding a baby and stops and my mom is stopped too, on the opposite side of the aisle. So I'm getting ready to move past both of them and go into the next aisle and a cart comes into the aisle so there is some maneuvering to get around everyone.

Well then I look up and it's YSD17. In a span of like 5 seconds in my head is "okay this cart needs to move. This person looks familiar. How do I know this person. YSD? No. Oh God it is YSD. YSD? What is she doing here?"

OSD's has a boyfriend (and her life in the past year)

July 2015- OSD comes and picks up her skids from our state, everything is happy happy happy. The BM is finally letting her DH see the kids.

August 2015- OSD, her DH and their 2 kids move back to our state because they missed family. They basically packed whatever they could from their trailer into their Bronco and headed out.

August 2015- gskids turn 1 and 2

September 2015- the US Marshals come for OSD at BM's house because she stole from her job in previous state.

September 2015- present- SS starts telling us about OSD's DH's drug abuse

Hypothetically Speaking-

YSD ages out in May 2017.

I will be satisfied to just be done with BM.

Although I have spent some time (not a lot) day dreaming about something really great to say to BM the day that CS is done. A big F You!

And I have daydreamed about punching her in the head. LOL.

I would never say anything to her just because I know that it would just cause more drama and the shit storm afterwards wouldn't be worth the zinger.

A Catch 22

BS starts back to school in 2 1/2 weeks. That means summer is almost over. (not really but it feels that way.)

I love Fall but I love Summer too. Things just seem easier. Less stressful. Laid back. Evenings on my hammock with a cold beer in my hand. Pool days with BS.

But the good part is that school will be starting for YSD17. Her senior year. Her last year. She will turn 18 in April and graduate in May.

Which means- NO MORE CHILD SUPPORT AND BM!

I am giddy inside to know that this is happening soon.

I never thought we would make it this far.

When even the skids aunt doesn't want to see them

Things have been good in step land and with DH. Little things here and there. But for the most part nothing that directly involves me. So that is PERFECT.

Early Friday morning, SIL drove through our state on her way from one base to another base. (she is in the Navy). She got there at 2am and told DH she was leaving at 8 or 9 in the morning.

DH telling OSD he doesn't want to be around her DH.

DH met OSD's DH maybe one time before she got pregnant they moved to another state 6+ hours away and got married. DH was not invited to the small ceremony that took place at their trailer because BM was there.

OSD and her DH lived there for about 3 years. During this time they came to visit for week + long vacations but would stay with BM and stop by and see DH for 30 minutes tops. This happened maybe 2 or 3 times. Mostly for DH to work on their vehicle before they drive back to their state.

How do your kids feel about their step siblings?

I am curious- how do your kids (your bios) feel about their step siblings or half siblings if you have kids with your SO?

Do they like them?

Feel like they are family?

Do they feel differently about the skids then you do or is it the same? And Why?

Do you think you influence how your kids feel about the skids?

Is it important for all the kids to get along?
