BM is psycho!

So all morning yesterday BM was texting DH out of control, like 10 texts about how she thinks he is such an asshole and that he needs to stop telling her what to do and that now we can't have our one weekend a month that was recently agreed upon. She was harassing him but he didn't respond to a single text! So proud of him! However, this brings up a new problem, we have him all week every week and if she says we can't have our one weekend a month, what's to stop us from just keeping him that weekend?!?! There is no CO or CS and we just kind of work things out as we go. We don't have money for legal representation but we desperately need to get something filed! We completed a "parental agreement" that we want to file, basically keeping things as they are but I fear that if we file it without her, she'll fly off the handle when paperwork gets served. We have filled one out with her before but it never got filed.

She's threatened us over the years about finances and our time with SS but when her scheduled time is up, he's always brought back to us or MIL. She filed for state aid and in the process filed some kind of CS case. We had to go in (I was terrified) and speak to the CS office, they laughed at the fact that the was trying to get CS from us when it turns out she would have to pay us if we filed a case against her. (Obviously that got dropped by BM! God forbid she financially support her child!) She's called CPS on us for no reason and even THAT VERY DAY still brought him to my in-laws! She is unpredictable and a complete liar and I'm so afraid that if she feels threatened she'll try to find some crazy cutthroat lawyer and make this even more of a living hell than it is already.

Jeez, are they all the same???!!!!!

Kudos to your DH.

And I am beginning to think that all the $$ for lawyers might be worth it, if I could actually get some peace of mind when the court stuff is over. But sadly, same here, no $$ at the moment for that.

The main thing is if we can catch her on a mellow day Wink she might go along with it and sign it. Then as long as the courts approve our "agreed upon" parenting plan all we have to pay for is the filing fee. The other thing is if we file that, and its approved, its the CO and in turn creates a CS case. That way it doesn't come across as us trying to get her money, which we're not and never have. However, we've always gone 50/50 on daycare costs but we've had problems with her coming up with her half. So that would hopefully give us more documentation.
