What a joke

Sd17 got the iPhone 11...of course cant have an outdated phone. She works, she bought it herself, whatever. Spend every dime you have. Another reason she is just like her mother. She then asked DH for a $60 pair of shoes and DH actually told her no because of the iPhone impulse buy. It's unlike him to say no but he said ask your mom. SD said but mommy doesnt have any money. BM & her husband make more than DH & I yet have no money. Go figure. The skids never want to ask mommy for anything because she is soooo "poor me I cant make ends meet". Blah blah blah. How about the wrongful death settlement they got for her adult step son and they blew about $100,000 in a little over a year. Not. Even. Kidding. They had a new car before the kid was in the ground. Again not even kidding.

DH called BM and said SD needs shoes and he paid for all of her other school expenses for her clinicals so he asked bm to pay for shoes that are for clinicals.

BM ditched the little skids this weekend so she brought SD her shoe money this morning on her way to work and left the child support also. The child support was short $60 so BM paid for the $60 shoes but shorted us $60 CS. What in the actual fuck? Her CS amount is $50/wk but she pays more in exchange for my child care.. I work less to help with the kids. We told her if she didnt pay more she'd have to take the kids more so I can work more. She chose to pay up lol. It's not like we can take her to court for the money because it was just an agreement we came up with this summer.

DH makes a good living. $60 isnt going to make or break us but it's just not right. So now again. Daddy is the bad guy for saying no. Mommy is the hero for getting her the shoes and the Stepmonster is the worst cuz dadddeeeee never said no til I came along. He probably would have paid for the iPhone, the shoes and gave her an extra $20 for being so pwecious til I came along and let him know what a disservice he is doing to these awful children.

I should just take the money and go for a massage. I've only done that once in my life cuz Im cheap which is why i have money in the bank instead of saying things like "when I get my check I will....."

Nice nickel 'n' diming, BM. This is a perfect example of why "NO" should be used as a complete sentence. Your DH should have told SD "No" and left it at that. Or "No, I don't have the money".

Sorry, Chmmy. How long 'til you're out?

The shoes were necessary for clinicals for school. That along with some medical expenses and a couple other things were necessary school expenses which BM is responsible for half. Dh put the money up for evrything else so bm put the money up for the shoes but took it out of CS. It's just typical.

As far as leaving, i have no plan except for a decent savings account. Right now my son is recovering from a car accident and needs DHs medical insurance so while there are many annoyances to living here, things arent bad enough to leave when my son still needs us. Sometimes I think maybe things will get better and Ill have my best friend back but we had a shit weekend.

He should let the court know that BM did not pay the correct CS amount. I understand that the shoes were necessary. However, this is a perfect time to make SD responsible for her own idiocy. Let her take out a paycheck loan. Let her go to BM and boohoo. 

I hope your son is recovering well. xo
