S/O being extremely petty

kitty1470's picture

S/O and I have been together for 3 years now. So this is sort of o/t but he makes 4x more at work than I do. I enjoy my job, but I only make enough to get by. He works from home and plays video games all day, just gets paid for his knowledge when needed..
I recently came to some tough financial times due to needing dental work that insurance won't cover, a high vet bill for my cat, and I need another small medical procedure done. I also need new glasses and tires for my car.
We keep finances separate as he doesnt want us to combine incomes for various reasons.

Can he take custody of one child?

I haven't been on here for awhile, basically SO has two kids, SD6 and SS10. The BM and her BF live a couple hours out of town. Well apparently SD6 is very difficult, shes very undisciplined and won't listen to either BM or her BF. I guess her BF is at his wits end and can't stand being around her. She is disciplined here when SO has them, but I still don't really like being around her for other reasons I won't get into right now. Anyways the Court order is that SO sees them EOW and she has primary custody.

Curious...

Why does it seem 90% of these types of boards are women (stepmoms)? Do men deal better with stepkids, love them more etc than stepmoms?
I noticed most of the steps that are unhappy are the stepmoms..

Why is this? OR are women just better at venting about this sort of thing.

I notice alot of the time, stepmoms see the skids EOW or split custody but stepdads generally have the skids full time since usually BM has primary care. Are Stepdads just as miserable as us?? It seems not.
