Definition of a bad day....

Explaining to a teenage girl why exactly wearing a t-shirt that says "sperm dumpster" to school is inappropriate...telling a little girl she has to testify against these who raped her next week...coming home to a kid who has started having awful mood swings ( I think she's getting ready to start puberty)....I'm ready to crash...

Of blended families....

First let me say that God did not intend on couples to have blended families. However, when that happens, I firmly believe that the biological parent of the child should stand by the agreed upon consequences that were decided between the spouses for certian actions.
Example: when my stepson does not do the dishes, the agreed upon consequence was for him to lose TV and video game privileges for three days. The DH, however, just shrugs it off and says "oh, he'll do them tomorrow", and then has a screaming fit when our daughter doesn't do her chore, cleaning the litter box.
And when I try to discuss this with him, he starts being pissy and saying "well, if you want to leave, you have options".
Right now I wish they would both take a long walk off a short pier.
I can't wait until May 2015!!!!!
