Innocent or mean as sh!t

This happened a few weeks back but has been bugging me and I can't figure out why or for what purpose it was said. So opinions or maybe an explanation would be nice.

Everybody is in the living room. DH and I are sitting together on the couch. SD(7) out of nowhere says, "Daddy? Remember when you used to sleep with mommy?"

I was thinking WTF! at the time.

Was this done as a innocent little 7 year old comment? Or was it to stir up some sh!t?

Let's not forget she was looking at me the entire time she said it.

How many of your SOs, BFs, and DHs have used this one before.

DH and I got into an arugement last night because of how he inadvertently underminds me. He's done it twice so far this week.

I just have to do this. I missed the whole thing today and thought the advise was horrible.

When a small of 6 child lies to CPS about her father grabbing her by her face and slamming her head into the wall which causes a three month investigation the best way to teach them that it's not okay is to sit them down and look them in the eye and say we shouldn't do that and then give them your credit card and drive them to Toys R Us. If you so this and then smile at them and this will stay with them a life-time.

Do any of you get tattled on by your skids?

This is one thing that I can't stand. SD(7) will tell on me to DH all of the time over stupid things like making her put her own clothes away or making watching her vacume the floor to make sure that she's doing it right. It coul dbe over anything like asking her not open a new box of fruit snacks because there is one already open. It's like she expects DH to take her side and get made at me. She's even gone as far as to make things up about me and tell on me to DH.

BM decided to shave SS(5)'s hair into a mohwak and dye it bright pink.

That's right. A 5 year old with a bright pink mohawk. She also thought it was a good idea to put birght pink highlights into SD(7)'s hair and get some acrylic nails at 7. DH's mother just took her in and got her a 100 dollar hair cut and had her hair dresser put some very soft natural looking highlights in her hair. (not something I would have done, but she was trying to spoil her and you couldn't really see any highlights.) DH had no idea that she planned on doing this. Why might you ask? Because she doesn't give a sh!t and does whatever the hell she wants to do.

Do you ever just feel like you're failing as a step parent?

As I'm sure many of you already know SD(7) has some serious behavorial issues. She is very disrespectful to any all adults for the most part. She's mean, a bully, and a liar. I won't go into any details about the specifics of her behavior but if you would like to know you can read through some of my previous blogs.

Is this considered insurance fraud and can BM get in trouble?

DH receives a insurance statment in the mail with his ex wifes name on it. He called her to ask what the heck was going on. She explained to him that she had no idea that had happened and that she had gone through health and welfare for medicade (I think) in order to get the portion that was not covered by DH's insurance taken care of.

DH called his insurance company and they explained that her name was still on his plan and that he had to fill out a form in order to get her removed. Now this insurance is through his work so if you are not a dependent then you can't use it.

Have any of you seen the storm before it hits?

I don't even know where to begin. We went through this with SD(7). I see behavior that I would deem completely inappropriate such as screaming at DH, arguing with him, calling him names. I try to address it with DH. I get the same sorry excuses of, "well it's been this way for so long I just don't even notice when she treats me that way" or as I refer to it as here's my cop out and now I can walk away with the situation with my head held high. Things get really out of control because the behavior is not addressed AND THEN DH is like I'm going to do something about it now.

I'm done with this BS

Have any of you pointed things out to your SOs, DHs, or DWs and nothing happens? Or maybe they try but they just can't seem to notice bad behavior such as a 5 or 7 year old child screaming at them? How anybody can't see that is beyond me. Have you ever heard the excuse of it's just gone on this way for so long that I don't even notice when it's happening? Or could you point it out to me next time so I can do something about it? Yay. (That's what I want to look like the bad guy.) How about I have such had time punishing my youngest because he's the littlest out of all of the kids?
