F/U from last Friday's emergency Counseling session....
So as some of you know, last week my husband scheduled me an emergency counseling session because I wanted SS10 to be placed in a summer program or summer camp.
Summer Camp
My DH feels that sending his son to a summer camp for 1-2 week is not acceptable. I think he feels guilty and is afraid SS will feel like he's being abandoned. I explained it was all in the way you handle it with SS and if you make it sound fun then the kid will be excited vs upset. Also, camp would give "US" a break from the drama and allow "US" to rekindle the flame. Not to mention SS10 would enjoy having fun in the great outdoors and playing with children his own age.

Never Again
Last night was the last time I will go to dinner with SS10 and MIL together.
Saturday night I finally gave in and went to dinner with MIL, MIL BF, MIL BF's BS20, SS10 and DH. I had been avoiding this day and even suggested my DH go alone with SS10, I was not going to be much company. DH begged, pleaded and said he wouldn't go unless I went too. Feeling guilty I went along.

He does it on purpose
My SS10 walks in the house covered in filth from head to toe. It's time to come in anyways so I simply tell him to do half his chore (picking up dog droppings), then shower and THEN do his dishes. There was no way his nasty hands were touching clean dishes, and I flat out told him that. Oh and when I say filthy I mean, just rolled in a pig sty filthy. 10 minutes go by as he does his first chore then suddenly I hear dishes being done....SAY WHAT!? I ran into the kitchen and sure enough there he is putting dishes away.

Anyone else have this problem???
My Mother-in-Law is a nice woman BUT her behavior around SS is obnoxious. He's freaking 10 not 2. It's so disgusting, I want to puke every time she's around him. You remove SS from the situation and she's a normal human being. She's heading over here in an hour to pick up SS. I hope she doesn't want to chat, I don't think I could handle her goo-goo ga-ga crap.
Positive note....monster SS is leaving for the weekend. That's the best gift ever.
Does anyone else have this problem? I'd say something to my husband but he thinks it's cute.

Hatred
I'm not sure what to do anymore. Over the last year my feelings for my SS10 have drastically changed. I've never really had much of a relationship with him and never really enjoyed having him around. I cant stand to hear him speak or even look at him. From the time he walks out of his room in the morning to the time he goes to bed all I think about is finding a way for him to leave....for good.
