My boyfriend's daughter is back from her mini-vacation with her mom. I knew it was too good to be true. I spoke to the biomom before they went on vacation and we discussed that the daughter should still have consequences from her sneaking out of the house with the boyfriend her mother so adamantly didn't want her to be alone with. Well, the daughter came in the house yesterday afternoon to pick up her work schedule and announced that her mom let her get her nails done (she wouldn't allow fake nails until now) and that she went to the fireworks with her boyfriend (her mother is really sticking to her guns in the whole grounding thing huh!). Well, I told my boyfriend that I was done trying to give both he and his ex-wife some parental guidance and that as far as I was concerned he could do whatever he wanted when it came to his daughter and I will be hard pressed when my daughter does something wrong again - how can I ground her when the rules aren't the same for his daughter, who by the way is a year younger, very immature, failed school and is going to summer school... He told me I was doing a great job and that I should continue to punish my daughter when she does something wrong and I told him that was wrong if the rules weren't the same for his daughter. Both he and his ex-wife will be even more sorry when they have no say in anything their 15 year-old daughter does. I also told him that when his ex-wife couldn't handle it, she wasn't going to be allowed to dump her off at our house with her restrictions only to give in as soon as her daughter returns home to her - what a nice mom! UGH!
