We weren't even trying to place blame ...

... But of course it's DHs fault that SS lies. SS talked to BM and told her that the Xbox was taken away for no reason and when she asked DH and I why, we explained the stealing and lying thing. She then asked me if DH "pays special attention to my baby bump." I said idk what that has to so with anything and she told me that SS is not interested in having a sister so maybe we are making him uncomfortable. Ummm SS talks to my bump daily bc we told him she can hear her, asks to help set up her room, wants to shop for her clothes and every time we do a new activity he asks if his sister can do it next summer with us. Sure, it will be an adjustment to not be an only child anymore but it bothers me that instead of trying to address the lying problem BM always tries to find an excuse or place blame. I am not going to lie. I am nervous about the next few years and how SS behavior has the potential to worsen. Yes he could get better, but what is motivating him to do so when his BM has an excuse for everything?

Wow... it sounds like BM is not interested in SS having a baby sister and is also enabling SS to lie, Maybe with the intentions that hopefully it will stick to benefit her. IDK.. just a thought.. That's how our BM is.

But then again.. you never really know what SS is saying about everything when going back to BM's. Could SS be trying to play both sides?
