So we are in the middle of changing custody with SD (6yo) and things have gotten pretty ugly. BM moved 3 hours away and was just planning on taking SD with her until DH reminded her that the court order says SD will stay with the non-moving parent until the courts decide. Well, she didn't file paperwork with the court until Sept. 9th, and our court date isn't until Mar. 3rd. So we have had full custody since the beginning of the school year. BM gets one weekend off of work a month, so she has been driving in and picking up SD for that weekend. This weekend was her weekend to have her, but every time she drops her off SD makes life miserable for our family. We are "mean", we are "keeping her from her mom", her mom is the "only one that loves her". After a few days things get better although we still have some issues with attitude and being appreciative when we do things for her, like take her swimming and stuff. We understand this is confusing for her and we have tried to talk to her, leaving out most of the details. Is there any way to help her with this transition without letting her be disrespectful of our family?
