Okay, I posted quickly yesterday that an email was coming from BM ... it came, and without slanting you all with my opinionn, I'd like yours on what this email means. Most of you know the story, if others have questions, feel free to ask.

Here's her email:

DF-

I have had to think long and hard about drafting this email, and have decided to do so in the best interest of SS, despite my hesitations and potential grief from you in the future. As I drafted this email, that was my intent and in that spirit, please read through this email carefully and with an open mind.

some small degree of vindication

If you've followed my story, you'll know why this is music to my ears: DH and BM are in a custody mediation today, submitting and discussing statement of issues, and BM has devoted some of her precious statement to ME (c'mon) and the complaint is in part that I won't allow her to hug me!!! And the mediator says to BM: "you have boundary issues."

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Sorry I've been absent ladies, it's been a long hectic week. I'll be online Thursday morning reading, responding, and then will give you an update ... but in the mean time ... I gotta say ... I am beside myself. Jacob called to talk to Erik tonight, and Andrea actually gave us an extra day with Jacob ... we get him on Thursday. That ... AND ... she has supposedly drafted an email to Erik that is an attempt to work together on things about Jacob. We are supposed to get this email tonight, but it has yet to arrive.

what are we gonna do with this kid?!

Help! 5YO SS has been a holy terror the last two days. Everything from screaming, "I want milk!" to burping and farting on purpose at the dinner table to to saying, "weirdo" and "stupid" after we've asked and told him many, many times not to. The demanding, bratty act has caught us by surprise and it seems like he's not afraid of anything we say or threaten him with. My husband came so close to spanking him tonight at dinner that I thought it was really going to happen... but, of course, it didn't.

Tired of being understanding

I really would love to be "strong" and let my uncomfortable feelings "roll like water off a ducks back" but theres a bit of a power stuggle going on within me.

There's a dichotomy at work here. My mom raised me to stand up for myself - to not be a little mouse over in the corner living on the crumbs of life. BUT (and there's always a but...) good girls are supposed to think of other peoples feelings...bla bla bla.

I saw it coming...

I am always RIGHT about this stuff....So last week I spoke to sd and bb and explained that we would not be buying school clothes this year...however we would buy school supplies...as a matter of fact while I was discussing this with sd bb said "I will buy everything you need for school this year"...well I knew better than that we go through this every year...last year the dump bitch waited until the night before the 1st day of school and called hubby freaking out because sd did not have any new clothes so I ran out and bought 5 or 6 outfits then the selfish whore wouldn't even meet me to pi

Did I do the right thing??? (sorry so long)

The Dr figured out it was the ADD medication BS6 was on causing his fits so about a month and a half ago they took him off of it for 2 weeks and wow what a difference. He was unable to focus and was pretty hyper put no fits. So we go back after 2 weeks and they start him on a new med.
