Tired, emotional, worn down and worried... very long
About a year ago my SD (17) and SS (13) came to live with us finally. I have 2 kids of my own ages 13 and 16. Things were going great until January when the BM discovered that SS was sexting and doing inappropriate things on Skype with a girl from the states (we are from Canada). BM got the police, Internet Child exploitation, and the courts involved. She claimed that he was doing this with a pedo and that she felt that the kids were unsafe in our care.
12 year old SS is stealing from us (long Rant)
About 3 weeks ago I went into my 12 year old SS room to grab towels for the laundry. He tends to stuff them under his bed. When I pulled out the towel I found a bunch of granola bar wrappers and empty pop cans hidden underneath. I then searched his room to find a dozen cans, a grocery bag full of wrappers, a couple of pizza crusts hidden in his dresser. We have a firm rule that they have to ask for goodies and absolutely no food in the bedrooms!

Long rant and really need advice
A year ago we our based new cell phones for myself , my children and step children on a family plan. We made each kid sign a contract with us (myself and hubby) with a list of our rules. We decided to do this as it was cheaper then their pay as you go phones they had previously. We also cancelled house phone and so my 2 kids need to have phones for safety reasons. I bought all 4 kids phones to be fair and nice.

My step daughter needs my help
My stepdaughter has been a part of a cadet program here in Canada and is very committed to it! Today while selling poppies one of the cadet support parents came to me and told me that she has heard that a few of the other cadet parents in the sponsoring committee is gossiping about my stepdaughter! Both my kid and this parent asked me to step in and deal with this situation by joining the committee and possibly confronting these parents.

Not sure how to handle this family somedays.... sorry long rant and need advice
My Fiance and I have been together for 5 years now and between the 2 of us have 5 kids. He has 3 kids ages 10, 14, and 19! I have 2 kids ages 11 and 14! It seems that no matter what we do there is some sort of drama! His kids moved 13 hours away from our hometown and we commuted back and forth for a year before I suggested us moving closer to them... which meant up rooting my 2 kids away from my family and all their friends! Although a few issues occurred for my kids when we moved, I think they handled the move very well considering!
