You are here

No surprise here...

It's been over a month since the huge blowup between DH and SD13 (see previous entry http://www.steptalk.org/node/217888)

BM kept them away during DH's parenting time last week (his lawyer is ready to nail her to the wall since it's all in writing!) Tonight should have been his regular weekend. Surprise! SD13 is still being a brat and refusing to come and SD15 is so whipped by her mom and sister that she says she only wants to come for one night.

I guess I'll be enjoying a relatively quiet weekend! Wink I feel bad for DH, but he and BM created this mess and now he will have to live with it.

You know, I'd be super bitchy and have something totally awesome going on with SD15 while she's visiting just to rub it in...like, I don't know, take her out to dinner and to a movie and for ice cream after. }:)

There's a part of me that would love to do that, but the other part knows that she doesn't want to come to visit her dad, she only wants to come for what's in it for her. I really don't want to get into the whole competition thing because I know DH will go over and above what he can afford to do and I'll be the one picking up the slack. It's kind of a catch-22 at this point. Sad

I agree. DH is in major denial about the whole thing and thinks that as soon as the court tells BM to encourage the kids to come, things will magically be great. I wish I could get him to read some of the stories on here, but like so many other DHs, he insists that his "situation is unique and [he] knows his kids".

Believe me, I thought about that yesterday! }:) But the SD13 came with us for Father's Day (only would come to lunch instead of the whole day as court ordered), was a chatty Cathy, went to lunch with SD15 and us, enjoyed going go-karting and having ice cream after and then yesterday, told her father that she had a miserable time. but I would definitely not care at this point if both of them stopped coming. They are both turning into their mother. They only see DH as a sperm donor and a paycheck. Certainly not as a parent. Sad

That's a great idea! And I don't need to tdo it for DH, he knows it's BM's words coming out of her mouth just like so many other things she's said. But it would certainly be interesting to have those to show the judge during the contempt hearing!
