I am new here and relatively new to being an SM... I hate it!!! It makes me think twice about having my own children. From what I understand from friends, when they are yours you can deal with a lot of actions that from a skid will make you insane! All of your postings have made me feel a sense of normalcy that I lost. I honestly thought it was my fault that I just don’t like these little brats (the other b-word is more appropriate). I have two of them; sd12 & sd15.

Reading these posts has been a cathartic occurrence for me! I felt so alone and misguided before this site. Often I asked myself if I hated them or their mother, I see now, it’s all three.

10 Things I hate about my step kids...

10. Contrary to what dear old Dad thinks, I do NOT miss you when you are gone and am apparently a better actress than I give myself credit for. He thinks I like you and so do you. I tolerate you and either stay drunk when you are here or just count down the days until you leave while watching over my belongings diligently and protecting my cat from your horrible petting sessions.

10a. My cat hates you... Quit following her around and leave her alone, she doesn’t like you for a reason. Better yet, what the hell did you do to my cat? I wish she could tell me so I could do it to you... she's my baby, dammit!

9. We have plenty of soap here, why aren’t you bathing on the mornings of your menstrual cycle??? Do you have any idea how disgusting that is?? :sick: Ugh, that’s Woman 101; we all know that bathing during that "special" time is paramount.

8. If I catch your a$$ sneaking into my bathroom one more time to "borrow" my limited edition MAC makeup (expensive and mine), I will smack you into maturity. I told your dad you knew it was wrong or else you wouldn’t have snuck and done it. He thought you didn’t realize that crap was wrong. Don’t bull5hit me little girl. This ain't my first time at the rodeo. Also, do you know how long it takes to build up a good stock of makeup? Of course you don’t, your mother is a hog to the nth degree... what does she know about looking halfway attractive, ever.

7. Picky eater at 12, are you kidding me??!!?? You want attention; I can assure you my dining doesn’t need to be maligned by any attempts to get you to eat. As a matter of fact don’t eat, I DON'T care. You're not mine... eat nothing; I don’t have time for this.

6. Do you really think it’s acceptable to sit in MY spot every time on MY couch; your dad doesn’t do it, neither do you. Get it? (Yes, I am aware that could be seen as petty, but it was my departed mothers white leather couch and they spill)

6a. If you eat on my couch and spill those damned Oreos & milk one more time I will (again) smack you into maturity.

5. I am fully aware of the fact that your mother doesn’t care what you do, but if you tell me you are having sex, it is my duty as an adult to tell your Dad and you need to tell him too. Quit acting like you're innocent and like it was only one boy and several years ago... I've been your age. Don’t bull5hit me, little girl.

You're a ho, I know you're a ho, you're a ho, because you told me so.

4. You exist. I am not appreciative of that fact and when I start creating software I will see if it is possible to back into time and un-create you. Condoms should be available to all at all times.

3. I can’t get married to my FH until you are 18, and I can’t have my own kids, because you are a drain on his/my money. 800/month... what do you eat? GOLD… From what I see of your clothes, the money isn’t being spent on you. What is that hog buying?

2. Who told you it was ok to come to someone else's house and funk it up with cheap assed lotions and perfumes??? I demand an answer. I came home from work and vomited from the smell of that crap... Are you serious! You can’t skip a bath and expect to cover your stench with that crap. My home smells like a French whorehouse.

1. I just don’t like you, and am glad you're not always here. I literally, ended up in the hospital with a visceral reaction to your existence that didn’t go away until you were good and gone. If I could find a way for you not to come back, I would obtain it.
