For some reason, kids just don't understand that chores need done by everyone. We do chores, they're not a punishment! Everyone should help out in the house.
You don't say how long you've been with the BM, not too long?
If skiddos have got an easy escape route, they'll take it. It can be a phone call or a run down the road to BM/BD, but if it's easier than facing up to their own wrong doings they will. If it's any consolation, they're not really doin it out of spite, if you read more of theses forums, you'll see loads of guys in the same situation. Hopefully things'll work out for you, don't let it bring you down too much.
