I *hate* when they are here. I *hate* that I have to feel this way.

SS13's BM informed us that she is taking him to counseling. Yet another way she can stick us with a bill. Oh and she says that SS would like "everyone to be there". Hmm, does that mean she is saying we ALL should be there, me too? And my kids? Or does she mean, her, DH and SS?

So much better now that I laid down some rules...

Dare I say it -- it finally got better. I banned SD9 from my room (and ONLY her, others can knock and enter) so now when I'm in my room I know I am safe and she won't barge in to do her dumb crap. It is SO NICE having a safe place that she cannot invade! I can now relax in my room when I need to get away. It's priceless. I didn't realize how much I needed a 'safe place' where she could not enter. Her self esteem did not crumble as DH feared because she was the only kid banned. She actually learned that there are consequences to her actions, JUST HER because she is the one being a turd.

Update: Boogers,banning and messes

I was going to post a topic with updates to my current "issues" and realized we are supposed to use a blog when not asking for advice. (When just it's just therapeutic to write it out). So here goes:

Booger Couch: SS continues to have to sit on sheet on couch and just this morning saw him pick nose and wipe it on sheet. I told DH and it just further reinforced my contention that he has to sit on thing for a LONG time, until he grows out of this disgusting habit!
