You don't want your own kid, why would I?

Something is up. A few weekends ago bm emailed dh out of the blue saying that ss really wanted to go to dd's 1st bday party. Weird considering he never told dh that he wanted to come and since e never pays
any attention to her when he's here. But whatever. Dh switched weekends with her and now I have a one month break from ss. So today dh gets a text from bm about spring break. She asked if this was her spring break which he replied yes. Then she tells him that she doesn't have plans so if dh wants to take ss fishing or something he could have him just to let her know. Ummm...ok. This is a first for bm. She used to keep ss from dh on his scheduled visits let alone give him extra time. And now? So she has no plans and assumes we don't either and that we're all going to drop what we're doing and take ss fishing? Does she not realize dh works?! Funny thing is we know she hasn't run this by with ss. Dh has a work trip durin spring break. I'm going with him and our bios are staying with my parents. Ss knows this. So it seems like she is just trying to dump him on us. Dh just told her he had to work & left it at that.

Yeah, she is married...either common-law or the real deal we don't know. But they have a 2-3yo daughter together. I'm wondering if stepdad is tired of ss and is putting his foot down? From what we gather bm works at a hospital (nurse) so is with stepdad or grandparents a lot. I know in the past ss was extremely rude to stepdad but idk about now.

Ha ha! So true. We see right thru it. And dh prob would've agreed to pick up ss and left me with him all week had we not had plans already. Whew! And what got me too was how she made it seem like it was a privledge for dh to take ss fishing. Like she expects dh to want to do fun stuff with ss all the time. Sorry bm, not every weekend ss is here revolves around what he wants to do. I'm SO glad we have plans next week!!

You know our BM does this all the time as well - when we had SS full time for 3 years she saw him 3 times a week - now that she has him she wants us to take him for most of the summer and still pay her full CS (she did not pay anything for the first 13 months and then very minimal for the rest of the time) We did offer SS to come and stay with us for a month or more during the summer but he says he would miss his friends (Thank God) but he knows that he is welcome if he wants - and she is always pissed when he says no only 2 weeks!!
