Bm left town and left SS with a convicted felon and didn't tell us CONT....

briarmommy's picture

Well I wrote this before I talked to my DH about what I saw, he was upset but he didn't have the reaction I expected. I told him all of your suggestions and asked if he wanted me to call CPS or if he wanted to and request a wellness check for SS. He really didn't say anything, I think what is really sad is that he wants him to be safe and happy but I think the thought of really having SS full time scares him. BM and MIL have really in a lot of ways screwed up SS and I think it discourages my DH to have him around because he doesn't seem to have much impact and plus SS is just difficult.

Bm left town and left SS with a convicted felon and didn't tell us

Went on BM's facebook today and see that she is left town last night with her fiance and won't be back until later in the week. Does she call and tell DH that "hey, I'm leaving town for a heads up can you watch SS?" NO! Instead she doesn't call and tell us anything and leaves SS with her brother, a convecticted felon who wait for it, was convicted of child endangerment. He had his infant daughter in the car and was running and selling drugs across state lines, ya thats who you leave a child with.

Do BM's get eaiser once they get remarried themselves?

Just looked at BM's facebook(I have a seperate facebook where I can see hers, to see what is going on) and she is engaged. So here is my question do BM's get easier to handle once they have there own lives and get married or is there just a whole new kettle of fish to deal with? I know for one thing she will be moving because right now she lives 1 and a half hours away from us south and her fiance lives lives 1hr and a half away from us north, since he owns a house I asume they will move to his house.

Well SS8 hasn't been here the past two weekends because friends of DH and I's had two weekends of wedding stuff planned and as DH was the best man we had to be there. But SS8 returns tommorow night and lucky me we get him two weekends in a row to make up for it. It has been so nice and calm without him here, two weekends were DH and I didn't fight and got to do as we pleased without having to detor plans because of things we can't take SS to because of his behavior.

O/T But I am so mad my DH is planning and going to his friends bachelor party

I know that he is the best man and that part of his job is the bachelor party but it really bothers me that he is going. He is acting like I am crazy to find him going out with a bunch of single guys to drink and ogle women on poles upsetting. I trust my husband, I do, but because of my upbringing and past trust is hard for me and I find him going out like this really upsets me more then I thought it would.

Just a quick poll how many of the people on here keep tracks of there significant others ex's on facebook? There was some comments about it in another blog and I was just curious how many of us do it, and what peoples opinions were right or wrong?

Reconnected with my Half-Brother today o/t

I sent my older half brother I haven't spoken to in 10yrs a letter last week and I got an answer back today and then we talked on the phone for two hours. It felt nice. He is so happy now and except for some obvious things so am I, honestly it was nice just to talk to someone and know you had a connection with them. I lost so much family when I left my dad, we just didn't leave him we stopped talking to that whole side of the family to protect ourselves from him. It felt nice to reclaim something back to have a big brother agian. We talked so easy and it wasn't even wierd at all.

SS is back home for the school year back to every other weekend

Saturday we took SS back to his mom for the school year. We have him next weekend and then its back to every other weekend. I made it through the summer relitivly unscathed. I am so glad everything is back to normal. Saturday night and Sunday my house was quiet and calm. My DH is visably calmer, nobody has yelled or cried. I have made meals and everyone has eaten and no one complained or refused to eat. DH, our daughter and I spent Saturday night and all day Sunday together, we watched movies on the couch and ran a few errands.

If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all(to the trolls out there)

We are all here to vent and to find support. Comments should be supportive and if they are advice once you have said it once go about your business. If you disagree fine say your piece but then be done with it. No one here needs judged by anyone else, I think I speak for most of us when I say we get enough of that elsewhere in our lives and this is our escape from that judging.
