SS7's BM pawning him off on us
Summer is here. I get the feeing SS7's BM wants to pawn him off on us a LOT. We are supposed to share him 50/50, every other week. We asked to switch weekends and instead we get him 3 weekends in a row (feels like the whole month!). BM says she needs to take pictures of weddings (her new business), but I don't get why his stepdad can't watch him (BM has 2 little girls as well). I need my space and time with MY boys (ages 4 and 2). My husband wants him every chance we get but he also works 4 10's, and I am the one taking care of everyone (he sleeps in til noon on his 3 days off.. boys get up by 7). My husband is a great dad and he knows that I don't love my bio kids and SS7 the same way and that I fail at being a good fair stepmom all the time. I do my best but definitely don't do THE best job. I get tired of having a 7yr old.. I don't feel old enough for a child that age. My husband was 19 when his son was born so I would have been 18.... It's hard for me to parent a kid that is so old. Since I don't have the emotional attachment, I feel like I don't know what to do with a 7yr old! Just venting... Any advice would be great. Feeling overwhelmed and dreading the summer... Come back school!
I have never allowed BF to
I have never allowed BF to sleep in while I parent FSD10. If he wants her over at the house all the time (I see no problem with that) then he needs to make time for her (which FSD has said herself is the reason she wants to come over in the first place). As in if she wants her own special breakfast, he'll be the one to make it for her (the house is full of cereal). I work a full-time job, too.
