Iam so thankful I found this site, I can finally relases my feelings to someone. It is very hard being the Step mom. The mom, that looks after the son and does it all. I have so much anger and hurt inside. I am the mom who takes care of all and gets the bad behavior from my stepson. I don’t like calling him that because in my heart he is mine. I have been the acting mom now for 11 years. Now all of a sudden the bm wants to spend more time with him and plays mind games with him. I have a really hard time
Does anybody else speculate that her husband is overindulgent with his kid(s) because he feels some guilt over not being the full-time parent?
I see so many good on line names. I guess I missed the boat. I could have been Stepzilla. I also could have been Chupacabra Bon Bon Hi, the name I plan on going by when I finally go crazy. Oh missed opportunities.
Anyone can feel free to use either.
I just don't get it. I married a good man that had custody of his 4-year-old son. Eleven years later I am a step mom that has done it all. Everything a parent, mother should do, I have done that and some for this child. I live the day-to-day life with everything for this child. I wouldn't trade it for the world because I love him so but I have such a hard time when I get all of the day-to-day everyday stuff that comes with being a parent and now at the teen years it is rough. You know they have that know everything, smart mouth.
Well, I still check on my SD as I have been doing since she has been lacking common sense and trying to pick up strangers on her www.myspace.com site. Today she has a "revelation" on her life category, of which I can't quite figure out what it is supposed to mean, or if it supposed to be directed at me, on purpose or what, maybe someone can help me because I am truly confused, so here is the exact wording:
my "revelation"

I am so happy to find this site. I am new to this sort of thing, so forgive me as I fumble through this! My stepdaughter has my husband wrapped around her little finger! The other day, my husband called me sweetheart, and she said "I don't want you calling her that, that is my name!" He ran to her apologizing, saying "I am so sorry, I won't call her that anymore!".
I've had some problems in the last few weeks of the days getting mixed up in the middle of the week, as they all start to seem to be the same to me. The weather has been hot, hot, hot-almost 100 yesterday-but we got a shower last night and then it was unbelievably sticky, and buggy. And I was wishing I was somewhere else. Yuck! But I gave the dogs Frosty Paws wish they really seemed to appreciate. Last week I bought an ice shaver that does snow cones and fancy ice drinks. With the way things were going with my SD, I'll be making batches of margaritas daily!
Well the ss did end up coming on vacation with us. However he did wait until the day we were leaving to make this decision. We all had a great time, the sk's were starting to rattle my nerves towards the end of the trip. But I do understand that they were just excited about vacation, and wanted to do everything that they possibly could. There has been no real drama with biomom but I am sure I will soon have another great story.
I went to work yesterday and thought that my boyfriend would have addressed his daughter's escapade from the night before when she snuck out of the house and the biomom insisted that they would have a group meeting. I left work to go home to the stepdaughter having painted her bedroom, made a mess of the garage, and appeared to have no punishment in place.
I can't believe there is a site for people like me!!! Yeahhhh!. Just a little history. My husband is the custodial parent of a now 14 year old girl. I met my husband after he had been divorced for two years. His daughter had just turned eight. For the past 6 years I have functioned as "mom". Her birth mom ( I will not call her mother) has never paid child support, refuses to pay and is now about 27,000 in arrears. Her visits have always been sporadic and for the past two years we did not know where she was or what she was doing. Now after two years she has returned.
