Unsolicited advice...
I recently posted on another site about my feelings being the second ¨baby mama¨ of DH. I was looking for advice from women who have been in the same situation, what was their pregnancy/birth experience like when it wasn't their partner's first? Chalk it up to pregnancy jealousy/anxiety; I'm already over it.
Well, instead of any constructive comments, I got a lot of judgement about our current situation with skid/BM. We have SD6 EOE, I disengaged years ago, our way works for us. BM is the stuff of nightmares, etc., etc. I know compared to a lot of blended family situations that I am incredibly lucky as SD is at least tolerable. Apparently though, I am an evil bitch for not taking on an active role in skid's life. Go figure.
One commenter took it upon herself to tell me that ¨DH must have done something pretty horrible to lose full custody to BM...¨
Seriously? Don't courts typically favor BMs, regardless of their bullshit? I know it's silly to get worked up over a stranger's comment on the internet, but the judgement just gets old.
There are people here who
There are people here who will find fault with anything you do, tell you to leave every husband, disengage every step-kid and start WWIII over a bio-mother who looked sideways at you. They're stuck, miserable, no escape and want you to join in the misery. They can't stay on subject because they want to talk about their miserable step-kid and can find fault with everyone but themselves.
You've got the right attitude. Anonymity allows them to act that way and they deserve to be ignored. If its gets bad enough you can ask the webmaster to eliminate a particular Post but hey it's out there let it speak for itself.
Yes it takes a crack whore to lose custody of a bio-child. To a degree that's only right as kids under 14 or so need the nurturing most mothers can give. But children upon entering high school including girls can benefit more from being at Dad's than Mom's. Boys so they can see how a man acts and treats women and girls because they need a non-sexual male figure so they to can see how a man treats his wife.
Of course there are always exceptions. If you're making your situation work then take the workable suggestions and ignore the others.
Sadly, you're correct when
Sadly, you're correct when you said that the courts do favor BMs, some states more than others. My BIL lost full custody of his kids to his BM even though she was arrested several times for shop lifting and other minor crimes. My uncle had to fight the court to get full custody of his daughter. That BM had been in jail for making meth and the court still gave her full custody at first when she got out. She lost custody finally when we was re-arrested for violating her probation. It's sad that the courts don't even try to decide which parent would be best for full custody.
That's incredible. A meth
That's incredible. A meth lab as the manufacturing center (usually in homes) can literally explode and they do on a regular basis killing all the occupants and a judge sends a kid home to live there.
Idiots get into the meth making and like all idiots can't read or follow directions and it is an exacting science not like growing marijuana which even I can do.
I hope Homeland Security Assh...s aren't reading this or I'll get a visit soon.
Don't sweat the idiots. I
Don't sweat the idiots. I occasionally get spanked via online Step communities because I have raised my SS-21 as my own since he was 1yr old.
Some people take offense to this for some reason and flock to defend my Skid's Sperm Idiot for no other reason than he perpetrated statutory rape (He was 24 at the time) against a 16yo. Apparently being the source of the golden sperm of fertility or the life support system for the golden uterus is something special to some people regardless of how big a worthless POS the bio parent(s) may be.
Even my mom was reticent to recognize how fucked up the Sperm Clan is. Particularly sperm grandma. My mom could not comprehend how a grandmother could be as evil and manipulative as our stories about sperm grandhag would indicate. My mom finally called her to try to bond as grandmothers to my Skid. One call is all it took to irrevocably move my mother firmly in to the Detest the Sperm Clan column. My mom was so upset by sperm grandma’s toxic vitriolic bullshit that she barred her sweet little southern bell claws and shredded the sperm grandwhore before hanging up the phone. I just gave mom a hug and played that most dangerous card. “Mom, I told you so.” Then I ran. In all seriousness, my mom is an amazing, loving, and supportive lady but don't ever fuck with her family. :jawdrop:
I have made a very enjoyable hobby out of shredding the Sperm Idiot and the entire Sperm Clan as well as the idiots who default to their defense just because the spermindiot and sperm clan exist.
Give it a try and most of all ….. have fun! }:)
Deep breaths and do not let idiots taint your happiness.
Take care of yourself.
