(I did make an effort to reach out to a few other frustrated folks before I started my rant again. Showing support for others is important - it can definitely be a hard, lonely road for we step parents. I also want to warn readers that some content in this passage is PG-13, so skip this message, if you have delicate sensibilities.)
Alright guys.... I cried and guess what? I'm still alive. No one saw me, so that's good. (lol)
Anyways, I just wanted to say that now that I have completely gone off the deep end in here, I feel like I can't leave. You all have seen my ass so to speak, how could I leave?
I haven't been here long but I'm reading stuff that indicates drama between posters. Since I don't know you people too well I can't make sense of it.
I mean, when I 1st found this, I tried to read all the posts of one or 2 of you who I saw posting pretty often, but got a little tired.
I suppose that if I end up sticking around for a while, I'll be able to differentiate between most of you but so far, I'm only certain that Dawn started this site and she is pretty fair minded.
i'm having a really really bad, rejected, sad, self pitying day today,
and i feel like no one on here even responds to my posts anymore.
thanks to those who have but i think im done... i just dont have anything left in me to keep up with anything but my kids.
bye
My DH has a SS (16) and SD (12)and he has visitation EOW. The SS doesn't seem to want to come over to our house as his friends live all away across town and it seems like it is a hugh inconvience to come and visit his dad. When should you give the Skids a choice on when they visit.
I wish I could write a letter to BM. I wish we could find that common ground. I wish I could dig deep in myself and not get so angry when she pulls the dramatics she does. I will never send it but here goes....
Dear BM,
I recently found this site after years of looking at different step-parenting sites. When I met my husband and we had to deal with his ex-wife's CONSTANT bizarre (to say the least) behavior, I thought there couldn't possibly be that many people like her in the world...BOY WAS I WRONG!!!!
It's incredible how many totally insecure, out of control women (and men?) there are out there, harassing their ex's, their new spouses and even their own children because they can't GROW UP AND MOVE ON... Call me naive, I guess.

- baby sick again, daycare sucks
- MIL finally home
I'm feeling empowered.
Yesterday was MLK day and I had the day off. I told DH that because he didn't have the day off SS could not stay with me because he doesn't listen. (Read previous post for more info.)
DH is out of town till Thursday and we were waiting for SD16's grades to be posted. I told him I would check the ParentConnect web site when I came home from work. Apparently he got a call from BM saying that she had called the counselor who told her that SD16 had failed all four of her finals and had actually flunked a class.No credit for that one at all. BM started screaming at DH over the phone telling him that she was bringing her back to our house TONIGHT!
