[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Well, it's almost a year later. I just missed back to school night. Not because I was working, but because I forgot and then was too tired to get off the couch. I lied to exDH and told him I got stuck at work though. I've gained eight pounds. I was supposed to have the kids for a month this summer. I put them in camp and got a mother's helper for after camp until almost bedtime. With their month they took the kids to Portland, Seattle and San Francisco for two weeks. The stepmom sent the kids to me with clean clothes all folded and organized. I sent them back with all their dirty clothes thrown in the suitcase (and somehow, only one shoe for DD).

Two days before they got back from their PNW trip, she asked if there was a night I'd like to come for dinner, so the kids could tell me about their trip and give me souvenirs. When I arrived, she also gave me a little photo book she had made with pics of the kids so I'd see what my kids saw. With a box of See's candy as a thank you for letting her take the kids on such a big trip. I went for dinner the day after they got home, and everyone was all unpacked, she'd gone food shopping, etc. If I go on a trip it takes me like two weeks to unpack!

At this point, it makes me feel worse to see the kids, not better. I told them we don't need to do my evening week since we did the dinner. At their house the kids happily play; at mine they mope around bored. [/quote]

I'm thinking this whole thread is a troll post, but, just in case it is real.

OP, you are depressed (at the least). You are doing your kids no favors, need to get on meds, and need to see your kids more. You also make no sense -- how on Earth do you judge how your kids play at their house vs. your house. Believe they get bored and complain at your DH's house as well.[/quote]
