Wow, DH takes responsibility
I have disengaged from SD11 for over a year now. This includes not asking DH about recent happenings with BM, drop offs/pick ups, SDs therapy sessions, etc. It has been freeing actually. I don't bring her up and DHs and I arguments have significantly decreased.

Birthdays with SKs
How does everyone handle birthdays with the SKs around here? DH and SD11 are skipping the party this year. DH said "I think she is kind of too old for one." AKA SD doesn't have any friends and honestly has no one to invite. Sad but true. It's probably been several years now since she was invited to anything.

Territorial Terror of a SD11
SD11 and our DS(2 months) share a bathroom upstairs. I have posted on here a lot about SD not accepting DS. Well last night it got totally out of hand. SD announced to DH and I that she was going to be cleaning the bathroom. We told her thank you, gave praise, etc. IMO she should be doing chores anyway, but that's a different story.

SD Does Not Accept our Bio
DH and I had our son 2 months ago. During my pregnancy, I posted pretty frequently on here about SD11 behavior. So we are 2 months in and she pretends he doesn't exist. When she does acknowledge his existence, it is always in a negative context.

BM Sabotaging Relationships
SD10 randomly started asking DH the other day why BM and him got divorced. He left it vague without trying to bad-mouth BM. Basically saying, we both love you, but it didn't work out. DH began to ask what "spurred" this on. Keep in mind, they divorced NINE years ago.

Disney Trip w/o SD
Last week, BM asked DH last minute if SD10 could stay with us during "her days" because she was going out of town. No other details. DH agreed and assumed she was just going on a trip with BF. SD was VERY upset when DH told her she would be staying with us instead. I know, we're terrrrrrible I guess. SD basically begged DH to still go over to her BMs house because her Aunt and half-brother (16) would be there for supervision. For whatever reason, DH agreed.

Gross and Annoying
We have beautiful weather here! I'm sitting outside on the patio with my dogs trying to relax. SD10 comes and stand literally 3 feet from me. She starts complaining that the dogs don't want to play with her. I don't blame them. Just ignore her. She is throwing a tennis ball around by herself. And still didn't get the hint. She is 10 and totally oblivious she just stepped in a pile of dog sh!t. I point it out to her.
Me: pick up your right foot, do you not smell that?

The Lying Continues...
So I have posted on here before about SD10 behavior issues. She has been formally diagnosed with anxiety, ADHD (inattentive), and ODD (oppositional defiance disorder). She started anxiety medication a couple of weeks ago but was waiting for another appointment to start ADHD medicine.
