Just wanted to say hi and boy am I glad I found you guys. I have a feeling that things are about to head down hill again with the ex and Skids.

I have a SS 21 who we see very rarely and a SD that we haven't had any contact with in years due to PAS.

My DH was recently sent paperwork to terminate his parental rights regarding SD so her stepdad could adopt her. Basically she's been raised with his last name and now it's time to get the driver's license and heaven forbid everyone in their small town find out that she's really not his child. The divorce happened when she was about 6 months old. The ex had an affair. DH really dropped the ball on visitation after we saw an attorney about 8 years ago regarding denial of visition and school records and decided that the only one who would get hurt would be SD so he let it go. Ex received custody of SD and DH got custody of SS in the divorce. SS lived with us until he was about 14 and then went to live with her after a lot of empty promises and lies about everything. DH let him go and now that's bitting him in the arse also.
DH went to talk to SD last week and of course she's blaming the lack of relationship on DH - how he's never there and does nothing for her. Now I will say that the step dad is a really nice guy - he has always been there for her and provided for her but we were never asked or our offers of support of involvement were ignored. So I'm not sure what DH is going to do at this point.
Well now SS is asking us to co-sign on a student loan for him and I'm not too sure were going to do that and I just know that it's going to turn into a huge issue with the ex because we're not supporting him. Hello - He's 21 and not working - get a job - help yourself and I'll help you but don't turn down previous offers because you didn't want to give up your summer vacation and then expect me to foot the bill for it.

Just a little rant but I'm looking forward to reading and learning all I can here!

Little info on us - We've been married for almost 8 years - have DS who is 2 and a DD due in August (I swear I'm way too old to be pregnant but here I am)
