Ugh, the combination of stepkids and ILs who are SOFAR up Bm's butt is getting to me!!
I have two adult skids with DH. They both refuse, and have refused, to speak with him since he married me. (Poor, poor BM is alone.)
In the last year, DH has ceased the birthday/holiday gift giving and has resorted to donating to charities in their name.
Loser SS23 can't make it on his own, so he moved from mommy's house to ILs house and has been there for several years. He's a TWENTY-THREE year old man, for Pete's sake!!
Anyhoo, DH has pretty limited contact with ILs due to their behavior, but he called and left a message wishing them a Happy Easter when he knew they wouldn't be home. }:)
His mom called back last night, in the middle of OUR Easter celebration.
Do you think she can just say, "Happy Easter, thanks for calling??" Oh, no... she lights into him about his poor, precious children and how hurt they are.
How hurt THEY are?
These are adults, remember. Oh, yeah, and this is all somehow MY fault. Huh? His kids make me want to vomit with their self-centered, egotistical, entitled asses. BUT I do NOT get involved in that. If DH wants to see them, he sees them. He wants to buy them gifts, he buys them gifts. But it's MY fault according to mommy-dearest.
Grrr. So frustrated.

I hope the ILs and BM had a nice Easter together!
