It seems the logical move.

DSD sends over 800 texts one month on the phone we pay for OH acting like an arse Weekend plans changed at last minute Cook dinner, then OH cooks something else as they 'just fancy xxxxx'

glug, glug, glug, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I too am glad I've got you lot.

Do wish I could put things as eloquently as MJ.

I always thought I was quite articulate but this subject just makes me jibber a bit.

lol at the fact that this is a parenting website where thousands of women post daily on the issues their children bring, yet if a step-parent dares to do so they should be hung drawn and quartered for talking about a child

The virtual wine has given me a devil may care attitude.

Now, off to start a thread about whether "step childs ultimate mum" is an OK way of referring to BM. It shortens very nicely Wink.

I'm here!!

I was avoiding like the plague yesterday, and was bit Sad, a lot Angry and very . Then dh made a stupid comment about dsd's birthday presents and I just kind of thought "f* you" tbh.

Have been up to my eyes in it at work today so haven't been on. Can't believe the kerfuffle and nerve of some people tbh.

You know what......I get on ok with dsd's mum! We're not best friends, but then that would be a bit odd really. There a fundamental things we don't agree on, but that's life!

Thanks ladies and mj in particular for sticking up for me when I really felt unable to do it myself. Oh and mj again for "saving" my thread!

Off for a proper catch-up if I dare......

Babyheave - your are very very noooorty Grin!

OMG!!!!

I read it and am Shock!! Can't write what I want to say.... would probably get a thread started about it. Again.

I can't reply on there at the moment, because I really dont' know what to say.

Also good to see that us step mums are providing on AIBU.....Hmm

harassedinherpants · 09/11/2010 15:51

Oh never tell me not to do something!! I can't help myself then..... that teenage rebellious phase is still alive kicking in my 40yr old body Wink.

I am genuinely amazed at some people's attitudes. Seems the "wicked" step mother tag is flourishing. On Chat!
