..More sister-in-law issue.

happy mom's picture

I just remember the time when I was first introduced to my inlaws, I looked at my sisterinlaw's face when my husband introduced me to his family. She had this look in her face of disgust about the whole thing. Now that I think about that, I realize that she does have a close relationship w/biomom and the whole idea of me in the picture is just depressing for her I guess. I can't understand why she should just have told me that she is friends w/biomom when I was telling her all my problems. Instead of hiding the friendship behind my back. How would you feel if you were in my situation?

Calming Down

Today was more calming and I was able to get a couple of things taken care of for Father's Day. I got a couple of cards in the mail for my Dad and also bought one for my husband. I don't expect that he will hear from either of my SK. But I went ahead and decided to combine his Father's Day and Birthday gift (which is next month) and let him pick out a DVD/VHS recorder as he has been wanting a DVD recorder. Since there was only a difference of about $35, I figured why not just get him something a little nicer.

Prom Update

My daughter was so beautiful. She had a wonderful time at her junior prom. We had a before prom gathering for pictures with her date and his parents and my mother, my son and his girlfriend. I was a very proud mother and my daughter beamed with beauty. She was extremely appreciative (we had a whole day of hair appointments, nails and makeup).

How can we get the kids away from BIOMOM

It's so awful that when we went to our lawyer he said that unless who can prove she is having sex, doing drugs, or leaving the kids unattended you will never get them away. Why is it that the justice system plays the we can't take them away from the mother bit. I know that in a lot of cases the mothers are better fit, they do take care of the kids, and they are the # 1 thing and it shows. But then there are dads like those moms, who would move heaven and earth but can't b/c of the system.

Question of the day?

Here's one for discussion, Going into your relationship with husband and then following through and getting married, did you ever think maybe not, maybe not to be a stepmom and to have to mess with biomom......
My friend who is a SM talks about that all the time. So does that mean that the love isn't enough to make you doubt or that the stress is really taking it's toll....

Biomom talks to me for over 45 minutes.....

Has this happened to anyone else.... Whenever my husband is not around, and we are at a sporting event, you would think that she is my best friend. Last night she talked to me for 45 minutes about anything and everything.... So for the kids I put on the show, talk and smile and blah blah.... But if the hubby is with my I am the enemy. Why is that we as women, I don't just blame her but me to, b/c if he is around, I purposely don't speak to her. Does this happen to anyone else

Does anyone else

Have an EW who is a hypochondriac and has recently scheduled my SS to have their tonsils removed becuase he snores? Who does this to a child? She also has my SD seeing a shrink and tells her that it is because she has anger issues. The shrink has no idea what she is talking about. How can a mother do this to a child?
