Today I took the skids and BD16 months to our city parade while DH was working. Sure enough there was BM and SD in all their glory handing out candy for the fire dept. UGGGGGGGGGH you have to be kidding me. She trots over and hands a giant ziplock bag of candy and several balloons to SD11 and SS9. She glances at BD (who is obviously smitten with the balloons)and walks away. Of course, no balloon for BD. Probably just as well, BM might have tried to give BD one with toxic gas or something. Of course the rest of the time, I have to listen to how "cool it is that our mom is in the parade and gives us lots of candy and balloons. Too bad little sister couldn't get one...HAHAHA" OOOOOOOHHHHH I am so desperately praying one of these job opportunities comes through for me, and gives us the "push" DH needs to leave this crappy place. It's one thing to be in the same town, but come on....she's in the parades, she and her husband are two of the four EMTs in our town (great...50/50 chance they would show up in an emergency!), and they are on the volunteer fire dept. I need freaken' space of my own.

The 2 miles that separates me and BM is still too close. We live in a bigger city but we shop and the same grocery store. I have only run into her once in the last 2 years...and she ran away anyways.

I got stuck due to my DH having a decree that would give her the custodial of the schools if he moved. I live my part of town that I grew up on and know. I have been here 2 years and the house has been robbed twice. The school system sucks and its white trash everywhere.

He realizes NOW all of this. We are trying to have a child if we do I told him that I wasn't living her any longer than I have to. I want out of White trash land!!

It sound like bm & dh share custody? What if you moved to an area with better schools? Wouldn't that be an argument for keeping custody joint but enrolling the kids in your district?

DH and BM are in the settlement phase of her trying to gain custody of all 3 and failed.

They share custody but her whole arguement which the GAL loves to listen to is that she wants to be a school placement parent as well. DH kids have been thru a lot of schools because of her and they really want to stay here.

Just got wind of her trying to convince SS11 to live with her...they are about to sign the papers..how stupid.
