Ok so they aren’t really my DSD as we aren’t married and we don’t live together but I am a big part of their lives when they are with DP.
I made them T-shirts with my Cricut yesterday and they said these T-shirts will stay with Dad because we don’t want to tell Mum that you made them for us, because she will ask about them and go mad that you made them.
I find that really sad. But they have a different life when they are with us from what they have with their mum. But we can’t change the mentality of someone else.

Does he have her 50/50 and is it court mandated? School should be informing both parents any information about their joint child, why hasn't he chased this up?

No not 50/50. Court mandated with EOW and half school holidays because in a different LA and doesn’t work for school. But currently every weekend.

It really doesn’t matter anymore now as Partner has said we can’t be together anymore.

This is very random. Has he literally just broken up with you tonight

Stepmum2111 · 04/06/2025 21:48

He doesn’t agree with me over fighting for DSDs

I’ve asked for this post to be deleted. It’s not worth it anymore.

Your far too involved these children arent your step kids but your bfs kids who you don't live with and now you've split up. Are you very young?

I'm sorry @Stepmum2111 . I thought he was yet another waste of father not fighting for his child, even when she's not being fed. Turns out i was right.

Find yourself a decent man. This one isn't it Flowers

He was never a partner
She was never your step daughter
SS are satisfied with the situation

We don’t live together in one house because we are older and own our own houses. I have an adult DC. So we aren’t young. Both out of long term relationships. Plan was to take things slowly but he has called time on things because of other issues mainly caused by me and my MH.

Oh well, it turns out he’s a better father than we gave him credit for then.
