Last night was kinda funny. Depending on how you look at it.

First she called to inform my bf to drop the kid off at late sunday... get this... because 'he always cries when you bring him home'.

Like he is not gonna cry if he stays 2-3 hours longer? Fucking stupid bitch.

Then around 9:30pm she sends message stating this 'Do you have a laptop for (the kid)'?

BF replies, 'I only have my laptop, besides he is too young to own a computer now'.

She replies 'He is crying that everyone in his class has one and he will need one for school. He is very very sad now'.

I kinda started laughing. Is this the beginning? Is tomorrow gonna be 'Kid wants a car, do you have one?' ???

How did you people deal with this issue?

The whole issue is the way she asked for a laptop. Its not cheap (we live in europe, good laptop is almost half of someones monthly salary...).

He is 9 years old, and by no means does he need laptop for school. Not even in high school. If there is homework to be done they do that at school and school has computers.

The only reason he wants it its because he got bored of nintendo DS and now wants some new expensive toy to play with. And ofcourse, so she can also use it for facebooking and looking for men.

You have a great advice though, i also told bf to talk to the kid. I mean, the nerve!

If she suggested to split the costs it would be easier to stomach. She just expects my bf to hand the cash for whatever wish he has.

The bigger problem is if she starts telling the kid 'no you cant have it, your dad doesnt want to get it for you'. I mean, the kid doesnt understand the value of money.

I mean, not my problem really, but if they want to screw the child even more then go ahead, i dont care. Giving him a computer at young age means you can forget about him being social, about him doing his chores, his homework or studying for school. He already spends too much time entertaining himself with other things as it is. I imagine him getting a laptop means him playing games all the time.

I think BM would like that, it would keep the kid out of her hair.

Sad thing is, when he asked the kid what he wants to do over the weekend , the kid replied -nothing-. He just wants to stay in and play the computer games...

Thank god i have some ironing to do.

my SS11 has a laptop, but he is SPecial Needs so gets a grant. the grant is only £300 so you can imagine that its not the best model.
He is actually top of the LA for ICT so its something he actually needs and uses.
We told him MAYBE, maybe for christmas he could ask for a new laptop but he should start saving just in case.

Thats great. I would totally approve getting him a laptop (altho the difference between 9 and 11 is quite big) if he actually used it for scientific purposes, and not just sit on his ass and play games all the time. He doesnt know how to use the thing for anything else but for the games. One game, to be particular.

What bothers here is the sense of entitlement. Oh, dad has a laptop so he should give it to ME MEEEEEEEE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I WANNNNNNNNT IIIIIIIITTTTTTT *cryyyyyyyyy*

You are dead right. BitchM has been entitled her whole life. She never moved forward in her life, and always leeched money off of my bf. Hence its normal for her to send such message 'Do you have a laptop for the kid' like fucking laptops are falling off the tree.

I am just waiting to see the output of this Smile

The way your BF handles this situation will tell you so much about how he will handle future, similar issues. Pay close attention. this will let you know what you are getting yourself into.

I hope for your sake that he stands his ground to crazy, entitled BM. If not, you may want to re-evalute your relationship.

I know he wont run off and buy the laptop nor will he give his own. He point blank told her not to get him in those discussions. He knows that the kid doesnt need it, and he knows what would it do to the kid to own one and play day and night.

At least I hope so. But i will keep you posted. The kid is comming over today Biggrin

I dont think that all the kids in the school actually own their own laptops. I think there are computers in the common household which kids use. SS doesnt have one at home because BM spilled liquid all over it so it got broken Smile hence her demanding one for SS :sick:

I think she wants it more for her own use...
