Taxes....taxes...taxes

BM is an idiot!!!!!! The divorce decree clearly states that she claims FSD on the even years and FDH claims her on the odd years. This idiot claims she forgot and claimed FSD.... in 2011 she told FDH that she was having surgery and asked him to let her claim FSD that year and he could claim her in 2012 to make up for it. Any Intelligent person would then realize that it would go back to what is in the decree.... and he wonders why I get angry when he is alway trying to "help her for FSD sake". Has anyone else dealt with this?

Petty Annoyances

Dolphin's picture

So tell me steptalk.... What are some petty annoyances you have with your step situation? I will start off...lol It is supper annoying to me when FSD stops by when she is with her mother to pick up some stupid item she left and then raids our fridge and pantry like it's her last meal. I want to ask, " does your mother not have food and drink over there"??? :?

How do you deal with gifts?

How do you guys deal with gifts to the step kids? Do you allow them to take them to BM or do you make the leave them at your home? Example we bought FSD a baking kit for Xmas she hasn't used it yet at our house but now wants to take it to BM to use there? Would you let her? What if BM doesn't let her bring stuff from her home to yours?

Anyone feel this way too?

Not really a vent, more so feelings :? On Friday my FDH and I threw a sleep over birthday party for my FSD. We spent quite a bit of money and time making sure the party was a success and it was. I guess sometimes I wonder why I put so much effort into someone else's child. (I don't have kids of my own....yet) I am spending a lot of my resources both time and money on someone else's child while her mother tries to skate by financially and with her time. I guess it will be better once I have my own child because I can truly feel appreciated as a parent. I can't wait!

Still can't stand it

I probably need to just get the hell over this....... But I still can't stand it that BM can sit there and claim broke but finds money to pay for other dumb shit! It really makes me dig in even deeper about her ass paying her half!! Swear the next time FDH comes to me about paying for something that she should be paying for I'm gonna shout out hells no!!!! Lol

Is it just me?

Is it just me or does anyone hate it when the skids show up on non step kid weekends/ weeks? I have no problem dealing with them when their suppose to be here but when they are not... Ugh it irks me! Specially when they just stop by to take stuff... Food, clothes ect ... We never run by BM house to get stuff! I know that's bad... I know it's his kid 24/7 but I still get irritated! Go spend quality time with your mom and we will see you next week!

Halloween

So FSD comes over last night for her weekly visitation and she sits in the living room with FDH and I says there is something very important that we need to talk about. So FDH and I give her our full attention, and she begins to tell us how are Halloween decorations are destroying her spirit. WHAT? You went shopping with us to get the decorations, you wanted a Halloween costume to wear to school and you wanted to help me create the Halloween wreath we have on the door. So I ask who had talked to u and told that you shouldn't be ok with the few Halloween decorations we have outside.

Had a feeling this was going to happen.....

Why can't BM step up to the plate to take her daughter to her stupid homecoming game??? I was excited at work because FSD was taking her ass home tonight only to have her return because BM can't take her to the football game. Why can't she take her? Cuz she simply doesn't want to. So now my Friday night free with my FDH is ruined cuz he is taking her to the game. The Fridays we get her he always takes her to the games. On top of that we get to spend the obnoxious amount if money on tickets and junk good at the game..... Ugh! Completely pissed off .

Beating a Dead Horse

I know that I'm completely beating a dead horse but I can't help it! It pisses me off that my FDH ex wife can play the "broke card" all the fucking time but FSD comes skipping over last night with her hair done from the beauty salon. Who does that???? Who complains and cries about paying for basic items and then goes to the beauty salon like its a necessity? So annoying because then FSD comes to our house and wants us to pay for everything because " mom said she doesn't have any money"... we get to be the responsible adults and pay for extracurricular activities ....Ugh!

Feelings.....

Good morning step talk! I'm going to apologize in advance because this is gonna seem like a lot of rambling.... I don't have any children of my own so sometimes I find myself very irritated/ annoyed that I do and spend so much money helping raising someone else's child .stbSD is a good kid does well in school and for the most part behaves well. I guess I feel like with this child I only get the shitty part of parenting... The financial and obligations (pick her up, take her here). All though I do so much i dont feel like ppl see me as a parent i feel like a glorified nanny.
