Wow. Amazing how you convince yourself of COMPLETE LIES.
Holy shit, I don't know whether to be disgusted or to lmao! At the moment, it's both!
BM and I have a few friends in common on facebook. A mutual friend posted about how she feels bad about spanking her son, but that she is not his friend and she is not going to let him run over, that she is raising a future gentleman and maybe the president. She said something about him being "bad". I commented that I learned somewhere not to ever tell a kid they're bad, just the behavior, etc. A few comments down, BM says that she was hard on her kids and to this day, they thank her for the discipline. Um, NO. I can't speak for her son because he's not FDH's, but sd21 had NO discipline from either parent. Disciplined children generally do not act like wild, rabid animals all the time. SD acted like she needed to be tasered on a regular basis.
Then someone brought up CPS. BM again commented. She said :"They walked in n out if my house 1 time. Said I was one of the best young single parents. Cuz my kids were respectful n smart n never said one bad thing bout their mommy! Even the schools told them my parenting n kids were exceptional!! I let them have free range on my home! They never opened a case!! My kids were honor roll students n son had perfect attendance!!"
What the FUCK are you smoking, BM? SD has never been respectful of anyone. Not very bright, either. She has said nothing BUT bad things about her mom to FDH and me. Just last week she told me that she thinks she's more like me than her mom. Not much of a compliment to me (haha!), but she was talking shit about her mom when she said it! LAST WEEK! She told me she wouldn't let her kid stay with BM until recently because BM was smoking meth and selling pain pills! :jawdrop: The part about school is PURE BULLSHIT. I don't know about the boy, but SD missed a TON of school. I was shocked she even graduated. She got very bad grades, I was surprised she didn't get held back! She got an A in choir, the rest were mostly D's and F's with a C or 2 thrown in. She even got a D in gym. Who the fuck gets a D in gym? All you have to do is put forth the effort, you don't have to be an Olympian! MY daughter is the honor roll student, BM. Nice try. Some of us actually know at least one of your kids. Some of us actually know the truth. I know damn well she knew I would see that. I wonder if that's why she posted it. Could be, but she does like to lie about what a great parents she was/is also, so it might not have been said for my benefit.
I seriously can't wrap my head around how people can say shit like that in front of people who KNOW better. does she think because I'm not the mom, I know nothing? Or has she lied to herself for so long that she believes this bullshit? Sounds to me like she wishes her daughter was actually like mine really is. My daughter has no doubt called me a bitch to her friends before, but she has never said anything that got CPS involved in our lives. She IS an honor roll and NHS student. At 19, instead of trying to get pregnant like SD did and succeeded at, she is leaving for college in 2 weeks.
Oh, great moms don't leave their kid behind to move out of state for a man, either. That's how I got SD living in my home, making my life hell for a year. Great moms don't steal their kids gift card that they got for Christmas to buy groceries, either. They get a job and provide for their kids. I could go on all day about what a total bunch of garbage that comment is. No wonder SD has so many issues. Her mom is living in a fantasy land and her dad was always a lazy parent to her. I would love to call that bitch out, but I don't need the trouble and trouble is all it would accomplish. So I'll just keep going back and forth from irritated to laughing all day!

I seriously think they lie to
I seriously think they lie to themselves for so long that they DO believe their bullshit. And who goes on FB and brags about someone obviously calling CPS on them... founded or not... what a freaking trash bag.
I thought the same thing.
I thought the same thing. Anyone with a grudge could call CPS on me, neighbors I don't even know could do it, but I wouldn't be blaring to the world that it happened. Also, around this area, CPS is worthless. My niece's mom is a heroin addict whore and was living with no water and CPS went there and said everything was fine. :? Seems to me that unless they find a kid bloody, beaten and starved, they don't do shit. I highly doubt they stood there and commended her on her wonderful parenting, either. 10 mins with someone you don't even know is not enough to decide they are a great parent.
BM came to the house saying
BM came to the house saying me and DH lied under oath and she could prove it….except its the exact opposite. She's going to make herself look like an idiot next go round.
The key to good lying: keep
The key to good lying: keep replaying it in your head until you are convinced it's partially true. Then manipulate it enough so that you believe it is entirely true. Now you can say it in public and not have that annoying nagging guilt and shame written all over your face.
BM, is that you?
BM, is that you? }:)
All I know is that I don't
All I know is that I don't need to lie. I'm not a perfect mom. I yell too much and I've swore at my kids and said things I should not have said. I screw up every day in small ways. I work on being a better mom every day. They know they are safe and loved, so I'm doing something right.
DD19 was not always an honor student. she went thru a really bad time before she got to that point. bad as in failing everything and having to repeat 6th grade. she spent that year grounded, didn't get a bday party, and I went to school with her and sat behind her in class for 2 hours one day just to embarrass her. I'm not gonna lie and say I'm the best mother ever and my kids are perfect. when they screw up, I admit it. when I screw up, I admit it. I guess that's the difference between a mom who really is doing the best job she can and a mom who truly doesn't care about anything but herself. the one who tries is honest. the selfish one lies about how great of a job she does and lies about how great her kids are to further "prove" that she's such a great mom. seems like she would be embarrassed for me to see that, knowing the truth. especially if she has any idea how great DD has done.
I think you are 100% right!
