I think ss is officially living with us
No one has specifically told us this, but we have been back from vacation for almost two weeks and he spent 2 nights with his mom. He has been saying some things to me lately that lead me to believe he has reached the age where he knows she is not so great at parenting.
1. I asked him if they had moved out of the old bf's house yet. He told me her and his little brother are more or less living with new bf, but there isn't enough room so he still stays with the ex, who is not so nice to him because he's po'd about the whole situation.
2. She forgot to pick him up for school one day. I said I can just drop you off, I go that way anyway. His response was "I think she does it because she doesn't really do anything else for me". Nice.
3. She flat out told him she is not getting him much for christmas because "he has christmas with us (and my parents/family and dh's) so he gets plenty. She doesn't need to get him stuff.

Re: I think ss is officially living with us
Wow.. how old is SS again?
I think it's great that you guys are always there for him.
I am so sad for that boy. I don't think there could be anything worse than feeling like your own mother doesn't give a crap about you.
#1 makes me so angry. How is that even right or okay?
but once he lives with you permanently, you won't have to pay her anymore-right?
What a sad situation for him... and ditto joseys, how on earth can that mom justify her kid living with her EX-bf who doesn't even like him!?
Oh no, we won't be paying her. As a matter of fact I told dh that she is going to be paying us. Not because we need her money, but based on principal.
And leaving hiim with the ex is not surprising...my husband is not his biological father and she let's us support him! It's not the ex does not like him, he is just so pissed that she cheated on him (which is her pattern, he should have expected it) and left.
