Alright, let me give you a little background. DH has three kids w/ ex wife. 2 currently reside with us and the third SD2 resides with BM. During the course of SD2.5 life, BM has refused all visitation of SD2.5 to DH. Even going as far as telling DH that SD2.5 wasn't his daughter. They did a paternity test when SD2.5 was 18 months to prove who she belonged to. My DH. So since then we have not had visitation of her. We have been going through a court case to modify the orginal custody decree which SD2.5 was not a part of as she wasn't even concieved yet. (Another Story).

This whole SM thing. I am about to ship both of these boys off to a private school where hopefull they will teach them some manners and give them a dose og reality. Yesterday evening, SS8 decided he was going to go outside without telling me. I seen him go but I dealing with a screaming teething 9 month old. So as I was taking care of my BS, my SS apparently decides this is his oppurtunity to do as pleases. I finally get done with BS and go look for SS. He is in the back yard with his pants and underwear down around his ankles. The neighborhood we live in very populated.

Speaking of all we do for our SC's, where is the BM when things go bad? My youngest SS was really sick 2 days ago and I, as the SM, was the one to check his fever, give him medicine, run his bath water, clean up his puke, wash the items he vomitted on and stay up half the night worring that he would be okay. The BM, of course, wouldn't have a thing to do with it. The SS wanted to talk to his great grandparents (her grandparents) and tell them how felt and her response was, "thank god I didn;t have to deal with it." Excuse me?
