I've been with my husband now for almost 9 years (2 years married today).  My SD was only 15 months old when I met him, and she is now almost 10 yrs old.  It's crazy to me that my daughter is now almost the age SD was when I first met her.  I've always had frustration with BM, but I can't get too much into it.  It would take incredibly too long to get the whole picture.  We do keep things civil, because it is important to for SD.  Regardless, I definitely want to shake BM hard.  She has decided it would be in her childrens' best interest (she has a child with someone else, too) and her own to quit her job.  She claims she is going to either go to school or start a daycare.  Both of these things could happen, but she hasn't decided and has decided to quit her job before starting either/or.  This would also mean her moving in with her current boyfriend, whom she has dated less than 6 months.  I also add this is the approximately 10th home she's lived in since I've known DH, the 9th job she's left, and I-don't-know-how-many boyfriends.  It's infuriating to me that she is so irresponsible.  I just had to vent.

i can see how that would be frustrating, but atleast she has stability with you and your H.

Welcome to the board!

I'm sure that's frustrating. Just continue to keep your home a positive atmosphere for SD, and to keep the peace with BM.
