Just as a reminder - my SO's 17 yr old daughter is out of control. Hasn't been home for weeks because she got kicked out (or she left on her own, according to BM) and has barely been going to school and also got fired or just didn't show up to her part time job. I'm very close with SO's sisters - one calls me everyday. Well, she called Sat to say that the other sister was getting prank calls in the wee hours and is convinced its the 17 yr old & friends. (Since they had a fight last weekend). What the child doesn't realize is that her aunt works for the phone co and is in the process of having the calls traced. Then yesterday, the 17 yr old texted her dad. Mind you, she won't talk to him or answer his calls or texts; but she has texted a couple times last week to ask a question and he didn't bother answering so she could know how it feels. But, she decided to text "Congrats, you're a grandfather. And by the way, triplets run in his family". My SO was strangely calm at first. He said he didn't know if it was true that she's pregnant or playing some sick joke. He forwarded the text to BM to see what she knew. She ended up calling back. Mind you - we never know what's true with BM - she's the ultimate drama queen - but she told SO that the 17 yr old was no longer staying with that one friend. She's been going from friend to friend; also she reached out to her mom with questions about pregnancy symptoms, like tender breasts, nausea, etc. Another thing was that CPS was now involved and might be blaming the BM for everything and might take the 15 yr old from her. The police might want to arrest his sister for that fight they had; the 17 yrs old's boyfriend said he was going to stab my SO. Oh yeah, and apparently, the boyfriend has also been cheating on her. He's telling me all this last night and then apologizes to me for all this drama. I had a rocky marriage with lots of drama and he knows I want peace in my life but I was taken aback that he would apologize to me. I told him I support him in all this. This morning - 17 yr old called BM and asked to come back home. SO said he still doesn't trust his daughter. I told him to talk to BM and be a united front. The disrespect has to stop and even tho she'll be 18 in Dec, she cannot support herself so she needs to follow the rules, period. I really hope she is not pregnant! That would just ramp the drama up even more.
