BM seems to think she still holds all the cards even though the girls live with us now. She signed total custody of the girls over to DH until the end of the school year. But now both girls want to live with us. She also think she still has total control over the CS issue.
Is BF wrong to ask for joint legal and physical custody when BM is asking him to pay half of all their son's expenses - insurance including co-pays and non reimbursed expenses, clothes, transportation costs for parenting time and appointments and the like, child care, school stuff, activity fees, sports stuff (the last 3 are in the future)?
Why should BF offer or be required to pay half if he does not get equal custody/time with the child?
my FSS15 is writing a paper about rome for school...i visited italy a few yrs ago and rome was one of the places we were so i was helping him out, telling him about all the sites, showing him pics, etc. well, he wrote his outline and in it he said "my stepmom went to rome..." !!! i feel so good that he referred to me as his stepmom bc im not technically his stepmom yet! just a little moment to make me smile 
DH's attorney will file with the courts and it is done.
BM filed papers 8 months ago to increase her parenting time along with her child support. Her original filing would have reduced DH's annual overnights with his children from 122 to 82 and raised his child support obligation $200 per month. He currently pays $550 per month plus all daycare costs, and medical/dental insurance premiums related to the children(approximately $1600 all together).
in our case, BM is crazy and we need to be able to have certain restrictions in place for her so we can have a peaceful life in order to see FSD. they agreed on some terms, but the circumstances have changed, ie she accused fiancees son of sexual abuse, so fiancee can no longer agree to the terms they came up w. we dont know whats going on in her head but we figure shes ready to take him to court. the mediator knows about the allegation and was supposed to talk to BM and get back to us and hasnt. we know BM will not agree to the new terms that we need to keep her in check.
I tried to love you when you didnt love me,
I tried to welcome you when I was not welcomed in your site!
I strecthed out my arms to hug you to let you know you are accepted and so welcomed into our life.
I tried to understand you and know you position so maybe I could relate,
I wanted to just know you....
To be friend you no matter the consequences of this situation that we all face.
Anger and bitterness sometimes hate...
I see it written all over your saddend face,
I just contacted the MA probate court to ask a question regarding the NCP obligations for bedrooms.
I was informed that my dh is under no obligation to provide seperate bedrooms for his kids of the opposite sex, since they are there less than 30% of the year.. 24 nights, 48 days.. that is 7% if you go by the sleep overs and 14% if you go by the days at the house.
How about my fiance and I have been together for two years and two months. I met his kids after we'd been dating for about three months. During all this time, our relationship has progressed wonderfully. Every other weekend, holidays and all summer, his kids are here...in OUR home...with US...I even watch them when he's at work sometimes. MY family buys them Christmas. MY dad takes them fishing...but I digress. Here's the real kicker. The BM has NEVER met me. When I show up with my fiance to do exchanges, she won't get out of the car. She won't even look me in the eyes!
I am in the process of losing my wonderful husband.
Background: He has two children from a previous marriage, D15 and S13. The 13-year-old boy is a constant source of conflict and has been for the 3 1/2 years we have been together. The entire time we have been together has been MAJOR DRAMA from their mother. DH could only have supervised visitation when we were engaged, during our wedding and the first 4 months we were married because he was under court order. All of that came to nothing and everyone went on like nothing had happened (except for monumental legal fees!)
BM finally replied to a email sent this past Friday. She was rather crabby and rude in her email. Here is one of the things she wrote..
You chose to move 66 miles from where baby and I live. I refuse to be punished any further for your choice.
Apparently, BF is punishing BM by moving 66 miles away. WTF!! BF did not even know baby was his until 2 weeks after he moved. He had nothing to stay in that town for, he closed his shop (his dream), BM got the house, he needed a fresh start and got me in the deal!
