[QUOTE="Betty Boop Anna, post: 710597, member: 21622"] Thank you for your straight forward respond. I know I need to stand up for myself and the kids. I feel no support from my husband other other children, as they all don't think she will change and therefore, why try. As of now, she is still spending last 2 night's at the guys place, with the baby. She has been leaving the 3 yr old here at least. I let het know her mail came and asked her to activate her EDD card so she can pay couple things that are due, 2 past due. she had told me she wants to take care of her own finances, which did not surprise me. I reminded her that we had helped her get her car back with the agreement that we would take over to help het get on her feet. Now she doesn't want to keep her end of the bargen, so I told her that I expect her to pay a minimum monthly amount to us toward het debt. She one again get cold and not wanting to talk about it. So I let her know I'm here to help if she wants, and that I hope she doesn't plan on giving all her $ to this guy, as she has done in the past when she was with her "babies daddy". I tried to stay positive and let het know that I'm trusting she will pay her bills, encouraged her telling her I know she can do this. Who knows, maybe she will??? Down deep I know I shouldn't have given her the choice, but I'm trying to show her I'm trusting her to do the right thing. i am not expecting any miraculous change in her. but I'll take any baby steps. My main concern is the kids and I will focus on their best interest. Keep journaling and hope nothing tragic happens in order to gain guardianship or even custody. Thank you all for you encouraging words. I do intend on reading the books that you have suggested as well. [/QUOTE]
