It's been continued

When we got there the state had SD12 a lawyer. After I told him what happened he told me I had filed the wrong charges against her. He said I should have filed battery, criminal trespass, and criminal mischief. The battery for hitting, and the trespass and mischief for breaking and throwing things. He said I didn't do her a favor for not fiing the charges.

As for what she was charged for, Unruley Child, they continued it till August 28th. Her lawyer talked the judge into giving her one more chance. If she can completely behave at home and school till then they will drop the charges, if not she will get 6 months probation.

The judge acted like he didn't even want to do that after he found out that this happened at her BM's house first and at school too. I gave him the four page write up of all the horrible things she had been doing at school.

The judge said if she was doing it at BM's house and our house he didn't see her stopping.

Oh BM didn't show up! No big surprise there... She told the skids she had things she had to do and if she had come down then she wouldn't be able to work Saturday. Then she told the skids she would pick them up Saturday before lunchtime. She also told them that we (DH and I) were going to meet her halfway to get them. I don't think so! DH and I have to go to North Carolina next week for the court date with her so we can get them there. That way we pay for all the gas one way and she can pay for all the gas the other.

i also asked the skids what day they were coming home. They said they didn't know that BM said they would play it by ear. I know she's going to try to talk them into moving back in before the CS case on Friday. But they can't or SD12 will be in contempt of court since the court is setting it up to monitor at her current school.

How could a mom NOT go to

How could a mom NOT go to court with their kid!!! Whether the kid is innocent or guilty, to not be there for her, I'm sure made a big statement to the girl.

"The beauty of life is, while we cannot undo what is done, we can see it, understand it, learn from it and change, So that every new moment is spent not in regret, guilt, fear or anger, but in wisdom, understanding, and love."

Character

I know you get aggravated, Dreamer, and have those oh-so-human moments of wanting to send and DH straight to the moon, but you know what? You've got character. That's a lot more than I can say about a BM who lets her child face court without her.

Thank you! At least my

Thank you! At least my friends on here see and know what I go through for my skids. BM's family and BM think I'm cruel to them and punish the girls to get back at them.

DH was there

In the court room they didn't even talk to me, they only talked to DH.

Oh and now SD11 is being a horse's butt. I think she's jealous of the attention her sister got yesterday. She's the kind of girl that if all eyes aren't pointed at her, then she'll do something to make sure they are. DH told her this morning that if she wanted the wrong type of attention like her sister had he would give it to her just like her sister, including the spankings, restriction, no electronics, and having to stay in her room, and court.
