I have 3 skids: SD16, SD13 and SS10. SS is fairly good. He's got ADHD, which is challenging, but he's a sweet enough kid. SD16 and SD13 are the most horrible, hateful, nasty children I have ever encountered. They have hacked DHs accounts to try using my personal emails against me, lied to BM about things I've said/done/etc... they have posted HORRIBLE things about me and DH on Facebook, Twitter, etc. They refuse to visit or respond to DH but text him when they want a ride or money from him. DH is a successful man, makes good money, very intelligent, but somehow allowed them and the BM to manipulate for years.

This month, it was my last straw. SD16 hacked into DHs Twitter account to read my tweets. They are locked, so I have to approve you to read them otherwise. She posted a whole bunch of things under my twitter about herself and printed them - to accuse me of sending them!!! At first, DH blew up on me - which just proved how bad it had gotten. He accused me of such childish things right out of the gate, I wondered "What the hell happened to our trust/our relationship?" I was able to prove there was NO way I did it, because I was in meetings at work AND DH knew my phone was dead and I forgot the charger that day!! Once he realized what happened, he was profusely apologetic. The good thing to come from it though? He realized how bad it had become - and how manipulative, sneaky, and horrible his daughters and BM have become. I've been getting threatening/high-schoolish emails too telling me that my DH is "having sex with his ex when he picks up the kids" Umm.... ok.

Finally, DH has stood up to them. He cancelled the girls' cell phones. He isn't giving them rides or a penny more than his support unless there is a valid need as determined by him, me, and BM. He has also told them that until or unless they become respectful, he is not going to ask them to come over anymore, beg them for their time, or otherwise cater to them. He said he's not even sure he wants them in our home right now. Even better?! He no longer even responds to BMs outbursts. When she starts saying "SDs are upset with you because..." he's just like "I am NOT having this conversation with you!"

I feel like a million ton weight has been lifted. It's still frustrating. It's still maddening. I still want to vomit at the thought or sight of BM... but its nice having a DH who takes your side and defends you.
