WTF is WRONG with these people???
BMIL just dropped off Nstb2 so she could go to her weight-loss meeting. :jawdrop: We asked if she had cleaned the house? "Oh, no, I'll do that tomorrow." Um... her house is filthy. Like, I won't take my shoes off when I enter because I'm scared I'll catch something filthy. She was pouring bleach on mildew growing up her bathroom wall from the stack of wet towels on the floor. How does she plan to do it all in the morning?? Then DH asked if she had bombed the house yet. "Oh, no, I'm going to do that Thursday." LADY. You have 18 hours until CPS is inspecting your house. Act a little concerned!!
Add to that that she dropped Nstb2 off filthy and in nothing but a diaper. To go to a social event... SIL is off hanging out with her boyfriend... all while being investigated by CPS for not taking care of her child.
I ask again: WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?!!!
OH, OH, and just as I went to hit send, I got a call from Aunt2. Apparently SIL thinks she's coming to my house on Thursday while they bomb the house. Um... NO. I have stuff I need to do on Thursday. N can come with me, I have room in the car for him, but there is NO WAY I am hanging out with SIL. Not in a million billion trillion years.
(Just to be clear, BMIL is my husband's mother, SIL is my husband's half sister, Nstb2 is her son, my nephew by marriage, Aunt2 is BMIL's sister. Aunt1 is BMIL's brother's wife...)

Oh, I am rooting for it, it
Oh, I am rooting for it, it just ticks me off. I love N to death. I honestly can't wrap my mind around it. 3 adults can't keep up a house with 1 toddler, yet DH and I manage to keep up a house with 2 toddlers, 1 newborn, and 2 adults in it just fine. The laziness... the apathy.... I just don't get it.
This isn't even the worst it's been. When the first CPS report was made by one of SIL's friends, the house had broken windows, no railing on the porch, dog feces on the walls and floor of the kitchen and dining room, holes in the walls, flea infested, urine soaked, feces covered carpeting, the bathroom sink was so clogged it wouldn't drain at all and they just left it like that for weeks, the toilet was used as an ashtray and had cigarette butts lining it, they had no hot water and their shower was a garden hose connected to the tub, they let food sit out on the counters for days... I was living in TN at the time and we came back up for a visit because BMIL called DH crying that N was being taken away if they didn't get help fixing the house up. I took 1 step in and turned around and walked out because the smell was horrible. DH got a bunch of his friends to come over and help clean but they all quit when BMIL and SIL weren't cleaning and then decided they were going to go get dinner. CW said that CPS tried to come back again, but when they came back a week later there was no one living at the house. BMIL and SIL had moved into DH's Grandma's house (which is immaculate. I seriously do not understand where she went wrong with BMIL) so the case was closed. He says this time he's not letting N fall through the cracks.
Clearly, they are drug
Clearly, they are drug abusers or mentally ill hoarder types. It is almost impossible for normal thinking people to understand their thinking. It's pointless, anyway. Just save the baby if you can.
Mentally ill and prescription
Mentally ill and prescription drug abusers... how did you guess??
Nephew by marraige should not
Nephew by marraige should not be your problem sounds like you getting more grief than a step parwnt would, tell your hub to get the two aunt's and mil to step up and stop dumping on you.
She loves her nephew and
She loves her nephew and wants to provide a safe environment for him.
Let's see, I was there when
Let's see, I was there when he was born. I called the NICU every day to find out how he was doing the entire time he was there. I fed him, changed his diapers, kissed his toes, and treated him as if he was my own. I called 3 times a week when I lived in TN to find out how he was doing. I tried to force his father to have a relationship with him (still trying). I have him 3-4 days a week and at least 1 overnight every weekend. Please, tell me how you think that all he is to me is a "nephew by marriage" and should not be my problem??
Aunt1 had a heart attack last year and Uncle1 just had a stroke. Aunt2 is diabetic and Uncle2 is sick and the doctors can't figure out what is wrong. BMIL is an IDIOT and a CHILD ABUSER and her husband sits around and watches TV all day. The only person who needs to step up here is SIL. But she isn't. So DH and I are.
