My ex thinks I am an unfit mother because the kids are sleeping on blow up matresses

[mcctatas]

only they aren't, it is just an idea he has in his head for some unknown reason! It boggles the mind, never mind the fact that he has given me $0 in support since the day I left in Feb., or the fact that he has been arrested for drunk and disorderly since then, or the fact that THEY AREN'T sleeping on blow up mattresses and even if they were, who the fuck cares?

There, I feel better now, thanks for listening :P

:rant:

1. My nephews thought it was a treat to sleep on blow-up mattress

they'd spend nights at the grandparents just for the chance to use them.

[HopeHoops]

2. Actually, those things are pretty damn comfortable!

Maybe he had a dream about blow up matresses after he passed out on his blow up doll!

[mcctatas]

4. !

Thank you for that! :rofl:

[HopeHoops]

22. Hit him with that line the next time he mentions it.

Asshole.

[jeff30997]

8. ROFL!

:rofl:

[BlueIris]

3. Lawyer?

Ranting is fine, but I hope you're protected from this sicko.

[mcctatas]

6. My lawyer is an ex-Marine and ex-State Trooper who rides a Harley

I am golden:P It doesn't hurt that he works for the best law firm in the state and has been doing this forever while the exes just got out of law school ;)

[BlueIris]

7. Ha ha ha ha. Hah. Good deal. (See Semi-Nightly Poetry break for more

moral support.)

[BarenakedLady]

5. I'm sorry he's an ass.

I'm so thankful that (so far) my split is amicable.

Stay strong.

:hug:

9. Baby

He is a poor excuse for a man, and human being and not worthy of being called daddy, by your amazing and beautiful children. They are not sleeping on blow up mattresses, I can attest to that. They are happy, healthy and loved. He's a worthless piece of filth, plain and simple...and he is getting real close to getting his head cracked. ILY

[mcctatas]

11. easy aggro-Celt...

:P

[PaddyBlueEyes]

13. Nope

Hes done...eventually and legally..but he is done.

[jeff30997]

18. aggro-Celt ?

Is it the Irish branch of Monsanto ? :P

[PaddyBlueEyes]

19. the irish branch of the sopranos

:P

[jeff30997]

20. Lol!

Good one! :rofl:

edit:This is my second lol in less than 30 minutes.Maybe I should see my Doctor?

[lizziegrace]

10. He sounds like my ex-bil

document EVERYTHING and always, always take the high road. Photograph the rooms. If he's like my sister's ex, it will only get worse.

www.wearenotmissing.com (her attempt to fight back)

[mcctatas]

14. how awful!

thankfully I have the GAL advocating for the kids and she is convinced that they have the best placement possible and is considering scaling back his visitation as it is. Your poor sister, give her a hug for me if you see her soon :hug:

[lizziegrace]

21. I haven't seen her in over 3 years

her ex refused to sign passport renewals and the children couldn't travel for a Christmas visit. He immediately filed contempt charges (yes, he set her up) and his buddy the judge swore out a felony bench warrant for her. She can't come home.

[mcctatas]

23. that is so unfair...

makes my pissy little bitching post seem kind of irrelevant, I am so sorry lizziegrace :hug:

[lizziegrace]

26. Don't compare the two! :hug:

it's just that it started out with the kind of stuff your ex is saying and escalated. I just thought that my sister's experience might be helpful if he continues his madness.

The felony warrant will never go away unless asshole drops the charges. He won't. He's rather be the long-suffering victim. Fits his narcissistic personality...

:hug:

[mzteris]

39. omg -

that man is seriously deranged!

How sad for your sister and her children and your family to have to go through this. Though it seems she's insulated them as well as she can against this crazy man.

:hug: to you, her, and her beautiful kids. :hug:

edit typo

[lizziegrace]

40. Thanks...

I'm grateful there's an ocean between him and my sister and the kids. My parents have spent $40,000 in legal fees so far. My niece is autistic. He couldn't handle her for 7 days when he went to see them a few years ago. He took her back to my sister's after 4 days and said "I can't deal with her". He doesn't want the kids. He wants to make my sister miserable and bankrupt my family.

[motely36]

12. .

:hug:

[Inchworm]

15. He probably also thinks he is some sort of King

Skr00 what that asshole thinks.

If he ever gets the bawls to pay his share, consider maybe at least listening to him (if you choose that you want to).

Until then... let the dumbass live in his own screwed up world.

16. "Pay your support and I'll buy beds. "

Even if they WERE sleeping on blow up mattresses, and even if there were something wrong with that, he'd be in a pretty piss-poor position to complain about it, seeing how he hasn't contributed anything to his own kids' maintenance.

[Aristus]

24. When my mother divorced my father, he went around telling everybody (including his second wife)

that NONE of his three kids were actually his. That my mother had conceived each of us with different fathers and betrayed him unmercifully.

Which is the worst lie he could possibly have come up with. My mother was, and still is, the most straight-laced well-brought-up Southern lady you can imagine. But my Dad's ego couldn't stand the fact that she found it possible to live without him. He died refusing to believe that my mother still loved him; even after 25 years.

I'm sorry your ex is being such a douche, mcctatas. I hope he quits soon...

[Strong Atheist]

25. Well, I sleep on a matress right on the floor, no box-spring. It's

comfortable...:shrug:

[Arkansas Granny]

27. Oh, you know how they are. When they can't think of any other way to hurt you,

they accuse you of being an unfit mother. Says more about him than it does about you.

[PaddyBlueEyes]

28. The funny thing is

The kids are happier now then they have been in a long time. You are an amazing mother, your love for them shines through in EVERY thing you do. You are the one, who takes them to school every morning and makes sure they have food in their bellies and a roof over their heads. YOU are the one who comforts them when they are scared, or sad. YOU are the one, they run to when life gets too tough, or they have questions or concerns. YOU give them love, support and a safe stable enviroment...YOU are simply the best woman in the world....their lives are rich beyond words...

[mcctatas]

29. Thank you baby///

but you are just a wee bit biased :P

[PaddyBlueEyes]

30. Yeah but

what i said above is the truth...:loveya:

[jeff30997]

31. Oh boy.

You're a lucky lady.:)

[mainegreen]

32. Why are you blowing up matresses?

:hide:

[mcctatas]

33. better than blowing up ex husbands

:evilgrin:

[Richardo]

34. Maybe you should put some air in them

:eyes:

[mcctatas]

35. wouldn't want to spoil the spawn!

If I give them air in the mattresses, what next, peanut butter on their bread? :P

[jeff30997]

36. Check your PM.

:)

[Richardo]

37. They'll get nothing and like it!

:D

[blueraven95]

38. since when are blow up mattresses

an indication of fitness?

:shrug:


hang in there! :hug:

[Fire Walk With Me]

41. My ex thinks I am an unfit mother because the kids are sleeping on male blow up doll matresses?

Tell them to lighten up; times are tough and the economy calls for creative housekeeping. Martha Stewart endorses your effort!

[miss_american_pie]

42. The internets are not big enough

to list all the reasons I've been accused of being a bad mother.

Hope you enjoyed your vent, and fuck 'im.

:hi:

[quakerboy]

43. My MIL prefers them

She wont get anything else for her or her other daughter. She likes to move a lot though, so that probably adds to the appeal. They never did much for me.

[Shell Beau]

44. That seems to be where exes go when they can't find anything to bitch about.

It is such a low blow when it isn't true. :hug: I am quite sure you are an awesome mom.

[mcctatas]

45. Damn, I missed the deleted sub-thread!

:P
