I'm still upset about wasting my morning fooling around with that $7 hit and all the problems associated with it.
PE: $0.55

On a lighter note I just saved a turtle that somehow got into our fenced area. :turtle:

So in the chronicles of my step daughter and her dumbass boyfriend...yesterday he refused to go to lamas classes with her or any baby classes at all.

'What do I need to go to that for? I don't need to fucking do that" So now my GF is going with her...mind you he doesn't want any of us in the room with her when she's having the kid. Yet he does nothing to help...this is great.

Also it's funny to get them separate daughter wants to live here till at least October because she feels like she needs help with the baby needs experience etc etc...He wants to move as soon as possible probably because he knows he may have to do something other than tell her to do it in front of us...then together she just agrees with him.
MUCH immaturity, selfishness, and stupidity there, unfortunately. Sorry you have to suffer all that crap. :(

And there's nothing I can do about it because if I tell him to leave...she leaves to 8 months pregnant. I feel like I'm literally bending morals and values that I have for this guy I can't fucking stand all because our kid has shitty taste.

Is this what being a parent is?

Sometiems you have to make decisions that may seem hurtful or "mean" to others to help yourself if they are causing you a lot of trouble (mental or physical or whatever)

For those of you that have kids...what do you do in my spot?

I really really want this fucker out of my house yet daughter that is 8 months pregnant complicates matters cause I know GF is not going to let me kick them out with her being that pregnant.

I just feel like I have to bite my tongue in my own house to someone I can't stand and it's driving me nuts.

Not in my experience. You're rewarding bad behavior, so it's not going to change until you throw them out.

Yea..but when my GF isn't willing to kick them out right now I can't do that either...so I feel stuck.

This guy is dumb, racist, a pothead, controlling and just frankly a pile of shit, yet I have to deal with it.

You're between a rock and a hard place. :( Do I recall you saying at one point that the BF's parents are just as dumb?
I was never a parent so I have little idea about what parenting is, but I gather from all I've read about parenting nad from parents that .... yes, parenting can be like that. The BF needs some hardcore counseling, but good luck getting him to do that.

Yea but what do you do when your significant other says "I can't kick out my daughter 6 weeks from her due date" she thinks he'll just leave but I'm like what if that takes years? I can't handle that.

They've already lived 2 other places and left because they wore out their welcome and they're quickly doing it here.

Then you should leave. There's no point in just letting it continue. No one's happy but the assholes in this situation, so you have to force some sort of change or just accept it as how your life is.

His whole family is just [mod edit], they are the dumbest people I've ever met. They are also all a bunch of potheads and just frankly stupid.

He's one of those guys who makes up shit, thinks he can talk about anything even stuff you know about when you know he's wrong..yet if you call him on it he gets pissed off. Thinks he can beat anybodys ass that kinda thing...all talk. Counseling...I can't even tell him he's wrong about something without him throwing a fit and causing issues.

This guy got expelled from high school as a freshman because he tried to start a race war, he grew up in the countrier area of our school district. And he still to this day sees no problem with what he did...this is who our kid chooses to be with.

You always have a choice, and it's your life. I'm nto saying this in a "don't complain" way, I mean it as advice that I needed a while back and didn't get. Every choice does have a consequence, you just have to decide which consequence you would rather live with. Either changing the situation, or learning to accept it as.

So you think I should just lay it down...they go or I go?
