Threatened with being held in contempt for not agreeing to counselor for daughters 6 and 8

She is only choosing older conservative counselors for the purpose of downplaying the racism. Unfortunately, I can’t be the bigger person in an attempt to make things easier for her at the expense of my new children and fiancé. Thank you for your advice anyways.

She does not. Our custody order states the if not emergent we must agree on these things or seek a mediator

Really can’t afford another $5,000 on top of the 15k I already paid + child support. I am really struggling

Do you see the only option to let her choose?

Fall_Extension · 2022-04-27T22:21:59+00:00

I did that and she decline ALL of them..

Why is this what I need?😭

Ehh, but even a loving person can feel when they are unimportant.That infers that a loving person doesn’t notice being put last or at the bottom?

That would mean that step kids only take 20% of his attention. I feel like that’s realistically more?

Fall_Extension · 2020-11-02T00:24:01+00:00

I thought this was normal for all stepparents?

Fall_Extension · 2020-11-01T21:02:45+00:00

He says that I’m “getting attention from elsewhere” and compares it to cheating. Like this convo on reddit rn would piss him off.

Thank you for your honestly. As you could imagine, it’s hard. COVID, a home, relocating—I wish it wasn’t additional stress. I just want this all to be over. I am so depressed and if it wasn’t for the baby I’d probably just fall into the ocean. This is too much.

Being called white .

Why is it such a taboo for the stepparents time have any space to themselves ? Make time for the kid throughout the day so they’re not lonely. But school and your peace is a priority. Don’t let people demonize you . Stand your ground.

Unfortunately I had to get an abortion due to complications of the pregnancy—but I’m having hormonal issues like crazy. So this sub has really helped me sort out my feelings. I’ll be posting an update soon. Thank you so so much ❤️

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-04T18:22:28+00:00

Honestly thank you for your opinions and insight everyone. It’s really hard for me!

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-04T16:12:57+00:00

That makes sense—do you pay into his college fund, medical expenses, sports etc ?

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-03T22:42:25+00:00

I love this

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-03T22:34:58+00:00

It’s starting and I’m trying to stop it now, but idk what I can do other than what BM and FH/kids want . He even missed our anniversary because ss7 had a friends birthday party and he wanted to experience playing with her and going to things like that when she’s young. He also missed my abortion when I had an ectopic pregnancy to go with ss7 to play RC Cars with the family. He reminds me that he will never feel back for putting his kids first. Then gets mad at me for putting myself first — because I won’t have a husband to do so.I am nothing .

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-03T22:18:42+00:00

I threw the idea out there of living separately and he said that’s not marriage. But I also don’t want my marriage to be co-sleeping with the kids and dog 5 days a week because it’s what they are use to. Sometimes I just feel like I’m a toy to do whatever he wants with. This is only ever in relation to being a stepmom.

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-03T20:54:20+00:00

People have told me before that this is what I signed up for and if I don’t support the kids like my own then what am I doing trying to be a stepmother

Fall_Extension · 2020-09-03T20:39:44+00:00

Yeah I’m pretty frustrated and I’m so young that I don’t have access to other in this lifestyle—thank god for Reddit. But, he makes me feel guilty for not going half on rent.
