Help,,,, venting too

Years ago when we married, I had Sk's that did not live with us but lived with mom.

Things came out and I became a full time SM, with little involvement from the BM other than drama.

My husband works out of town and comes home several days at a time then back out, but I am feeling more and more dumped on. I take on the full time roll of a BM but I am SM. BM now has supervised visitation that she does not do.

Husbands parents were helping out sometimes but they couldn't take the "stress" of the kids and left. I am so mad, these are their grandkids and they won't help but it is my "duty" to do it all

I have one SK left, but it seems like I never get a break for real it is getting old and I am getting worn out and tired from dealing with the "stress"

Now grandparents want to come back, only to have a place to live not to help out because Sk is old enough to do things on her own now.

I feel like a babysitter, maid and taxi and I also work outside of the home full time.

I am frustrated and every other emotion

I am in a similar situation. I feel for ya! I had to talk to my hubby about his job just last night. He didn't have custody when we got married but now he does and I get the brunt of the responsibility because of his work schedule. And by "brunt" I mean I have to do everything. I just made my first post to this site yesterday so I don't claim to be any kind of expert on the subject but at least I can tell you you're not alone Smile

Your inlaws want to live with you? Hell no. You are close to getting the last kid out. You deserve some peace not more adults living in your house.
