SD21 is emancipated in 8 weeks. DH has considered removing her from insurance at that point. Sever PAS over the past 18 years and wants nothing to do with DH or her 2 sisters. BM has been in her latest relationship for about 3 years but does not work at all and has been depending on CS which is a nice chunk from 2 fathers.

I wrote that SD actually texted DH for his birthday- 1st contact in years. She had always ignored texts from DH before that and actually texted my child to say nasty things.DH wound up texting her back and thanked her for the birthday wish and that he loved her and always will and would love to have a relationship with her and explained how things got so bad and between everyone and basically said that he and her mother made a lot of mistakes over the years but that the main thing was that he loved her always will. He did also tell her he has no problem keeping her on insurance forever if she actually shows she wants a real relationship with him and not just for money and insurance.

Anyway she never responded but I heard that BM and boyfriend may have broke up. BM tames the crazy for awhile but cant really control it. I dont know if the contact between DH and his daughter prompted it or not but she goes off the wall when things dont go her way. SHe hated DH anywhere near SD. Except his money. Wants whatever man she is with to be Dad. ANd its worked over the years. SD has had at least 4 other Dads besides DH which always ripped his heart out. Me?Ive been her fathers wife since she was 3 which is fine by me. Dont want any credit for her anyway. There hasnt been that much drama over the years because when BM is in a relationship DH doesnt matter. She doesnt want him around as a father . Doesnt even bother sending copays wants him to disappear. Then when the relationship goes south all of a sudden she wants to start. It has happened many times over 18 years.Im betting she will send me about 2 years of copays now.

I just had to laugh when DH called me and told me that BM texted him with no explanation. Just a picture of a dental estimate of $600. DH was so nervous because we are so broke its not funny. I told him to calm down. She hasnt sent us a bill in about a year and a half. There was no date on the bill.There was no insurance applied to it at all so it will probably be half of that and then if she wants us to pay it it will be about $200. I dont care. We never have to pay another thing after December so fine.She wants it she can have it.

She was hoping like in the past that my DH would text her back upset and they could have an argument all night. She loves fighting with DH after 18 YEARS when her life sucks. DH falls right into it.Well if boyfriend is gone shes going to have no income and a huge mortgage since SD has never worked and BM hasnt worker in years. Not my problem. }:)

Anyway just venting and I actually hope SD responds to him at some point but I will always have in the back of my mind the timing of it all.
