But WAIT... did I hear that right? BM is too busy to go???? Are you friggen kidding me?

Ok..so I've been feeling a little sorry for my stepson lately... still annoyed by him, but sorry for him all the same. I think he is going downhill, and I think there are many reasons... for one.. he really hates his stepdad... ok.. so he probably hates me too.. but too the point that he's upset to be around him?? AND BM leaves them together all the time... he's peeing even more frequently than usual, and after his holiday with Grandma..she advised me that they had to tell him several times to stop masturbating in front of them. I've had to tell him in the past too..
I know it's normal..to an extent... but usually at 8 years old you know not to do it in front of people!

Ok...and he's constantly having breakdowns... which I believe are simply manipulations of his parents..about how he wishes they were together...and he'll only be happy when that happens.. (he doesn't remember them together, so he fantasizes about it)... so regardless... I think he should talk to someone about his feelings...

He also seems to be using food moreso as a comfort all the time...

Ok... so DH thinks it's a great idea to see a counsellor and has set up an appointment... but trying to set the date is a different thing, BM doesn't think her son needs to go, and is therefore making scheduling anything really difficult. I wonder what she's so afraid of???? I mean counselling doesn't hurt! What does she not want to come out at a counselling session? That she neglects her kids? That she puts them last? hmmm... I've told DH he should go ahead and schedule... give her a date..and if she can't make it, go anyways... that will really put things into perspective for the counsellor I would think.

Hmmm... whatever.. I'm just pissed.
