What is your opinion?
Hi all! I need your opinions on something. DH and BM do not have any type of court documents saying who has custody or anything about child support. Well, like I said in my last entry, SD is going back with her mom and DH is going to start paying her again (which I think is the real reason she wants SD back in the first place but that is a different story). In addition to paying her $100 a week he also provides the insurance/health care, ALL the transportation (it is an hour one way to get her) and he just spent over $100 on new clothes for her because her mom can't afford it.

It's Been a LOOOONNNGG time.....
Hi All, it's been a really long time but I really need to vent to those who understand my point of view. So DH and I had SD4 for the past year, and she went to her BM on weekends. I also had her all summer( I was off since I am a teacher) by myself. By the way, I have no kids of my own. Anyway, it was recently told to us by BM that she was taking her back and she was going to school where she lives (an hour a way), ETC. Now I think she just wants money which of course he will give her.

I really should get on here more
Hello all! I really should get on here more. Maybe it would make me feel better about a lot of things. It is just really hard being a single parent to someone else's kid especially when they force her down your throat as your own. I am finding my self resent the fact that SD4 is even ther and making me reconsider even getting married in 6 months. This is not what I signed up for. I never thought it it wold become my total responsibility to raise this child. FH works until about 8 or 9 at night. By then she is going to bed which a whole other problem in it self.

Biological kids
Does anyone else on here have only stepkids and no biological kids? If so, is anyone nervous about having kids with DH? I am getting married to FH in 7 months and I always thought that I wanted kids ( I mean I'm a teacher for cryin' out loud...I love kids) BUt after this whole experience I am a little undecided. First reason being that SD3 is the "little princess" and can basically get away with murder and really has minimal consequences for actions, etc. The second reason being, I was raised with rules and consequnces and I plan on raising my own the same way.

Update...it's been a while
Hello All, it's been a while since I have been on here and I really needed to vent today. Last time I posted I told you all that we got SD3 Mon-Fri and it was going okay. Well...FH got a promotion at work which os great BUT it also means longer hours as well as staying later than his schedule say ETC. This also mean more responsibility on me. He takes her to school beofre he goes to work and then I pick her up after work aroung=d 3:45ish and have her until he gts home which can be anywhere from 8:30- ???? Now, I take care of her, feed her, bathe her and get her ready for bed.

Update...it's been a while since I've been on
Hello all, if you rememeber about a month or so ago BM was thinking about letting SD3 live with us Mon-Fri and she would see her on the weekends and I was worried about doing EVERYTHING for the kid while FH works. WELL...it happened. We have her, this is 3 weeks now and it is actually working out so far. He gets her ready in the morning and takes her to daycare and then I pick her up and he gets off early most days now so I am still able to get stuff done and have some "me" time. She goes to her BM on Friday night and comes back on Sunday night which also leaves the weekend.

Just wondering......
So I was just wondering what is so great about BMs that make our DH/FH do what ever they want just so they "don't make waves". I mean, they must not be so wonderful or they would still be with them and not us right? I just had to ask...:P

Ok ladies...what would you do ir have you doine in this situation?
So SD3 might be coming to live with me and FH full time while BM "gets her act together" ( which most likey means lives it up and parties while we raise her child for her) Anyway, I truly feel that our place is a much better place to raqise a child, it is stable, we both have steady and good jobs and it is structured , well I am at least. Here is where the problem comes in, FH works late and since I work too we will need to put SD in day care.
I thought this was a place to vent to others in similiar situations
Today I read another blog on here talking about " If we are all so miserable why are we still with DH"? ETC.....I know I am new here but I have only found this site helpful. I am definitely not unhappy with my FH and I definitely like his daughter too. Venting is totally normal and healthy and doing it with others that can relate just seems to help. It has helped me realize that I am not being unrealistic or going crazy.
