So, if you read my last blog you know that there was a chance I would have to drive 15 hours this christmas to see DH and be able to spend x-mas with the skids as well.
Welll....BM keeps saying that she can't afford the $240 to change the kids tickets so they wont miss school/finals. (but she could afford a $1000 tv...hmmmm) She also called my SS and told him it was DH's fault because he told her the date she bought the tickets for were fine. (he didn't, neither of us knew she had even bought the tickets when she did).

when the BM is more of a child than the child

All 3 of my skids are Independent, self sufficient, and very mature. (obviously with the occasional "the world is out to get me attitude"). Every so often I'm treated like a floor mat, but more often than not, my skids are wonderful....and no thanks to BM.
DH raised all 3 basically by himself...even when him and BM were married. After they split BM would come around and play mom when it was convenient or favorable to her.

Progress is Wonderful

So, after getting really fed up on my SS's attitude I sat him down last night and explained that I only wanted to talk, not argue.
I explained to him that I wasn't the only person making the decision to have his phone taken away and that if he hadn't been acting the way he had been that it never would have been taken in the first place. But, if he's going to be a jerk, then he needs to be a jerk to everyone that was involved in the decision, not just me. He knows better than to act that way with DH.

Clueless and stressed out!!

I married my husband a little over a year ago. It was rushed due to us both being in the military and was a shock to his 3 children because the 2 of us really didn't know each other for to long.
He has 3 kids from his previous marriage. 2 girls and 1 boy. All teenagers. My oldest step daughter just graduated from Marine basic training and the other 2 are going to school and very involved in sports. All 3 kids are great kids and I love them as my own.
