It's pathetic. I have to say, depending how long Hatchet Face's litany was, neither you nor your husband were under any obligation to stand there and listen to it. Telling her to give you a call when she could talk reasonably is not out of line. No one needs to listen to that crap. <br /><br />My BF used to fall for that trap, getting angry and letting that ruin our time together, until we realized how much power we were giving to someone who doesn't deserve it. We consciously decide to let it go and be together and leave the BS outside where it belongs. With practice, it really is possible. Don't let their negativity pull you down too.Smirking Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15337751877658931171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547672216318135339.post-87161577737298649562009-08-13T14:35:10.540-07:002009-08-13T14:35:10.540-07:00totally relate to this, only its the bio-dad that ...totally relate to this, only its the bio-dad that does it... to his own children.

And not the only one with a BM who thinks that any kind of group kids activity is run by paedophiles!

At Rainbows?? I attended SD's first Rainbow evenings with her and she loved it. Hubbs attended SS's Beaver meetings with him and HE loved it.<br /><br />BM is just jealous because we are doing things with the kids that she is too lazy to do.<br /><br />Oh and the latest thing in BM's "lets compete with Hubbs & LBM" mission is, she's promised to take them swimming with Sharks. WTF?? She apparently has no money for school shoes, yet she's going to take them swimming with Sharks. She gets their hopes up, makes false promises that she can't fulfil, all in an effort to try and compete with us. It's so sad.La Belle Merehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081037978656372933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547672216318135339.post-74063483415789464192009-08-11T06:05:49.671-07:002009-08-11T06:05:49.671-07:00I completely understand your frustration, it sucks...I completely understand your frustration, it sucks!! You and your DH are doing everything right and SD is so lucky to have you both in her life. Sounds like she needs some normalcy. <br />I have learned it is ALWAYS going to be something, and you can't win. I do envy men how they can flip a switch and let it go. I try to be better at that but as a woman I think that is so hard. I take it personally and I just cannot understand how a person can come up with these stupid accusations, it makes no sense!!

It's not fair for your SD. Would they rather wait until her friends notice that she smells before they do anything - that's worse than your parents telling you to take a bath. The two of you are taking really good care of her and one day she will realize that you were the ones who always had her best interests at heart. - GAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
