[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who has been through a tough divorce and the realities of remarriage and blended families knows exactly what is going on. OP, you may be fooling some dcum posters.  Those of us who have been there see right through you. A judge likely will as well.  You are ridiculously jealous that your ex has moved on with his life while you remain single.  He has a new wife, new baby, new family.  You are angry that she is able to stay home with the kids (you have continually harped on this point). And you have successfully turned your son against his father.

You think you are smart, but trust me - anyone who knows you knows exactly what you are doing.  Grow up.  Move on with your life.  Stop obsessing about your ex and his new family. Your child is a part of that family.  You are not.

I've been through a tough divorce, and my ex is remarried to someone who treats my daughter differently than her own daughter. My daughter is old enough to notice and young enough not to be tactful about it. I am happily remarried, so it has nothing to do with being jealous. It also has nothing to do with where or whether she works.

It sounds like the comments of the stepfamily have turned the son against his father, which is unsurprising, since anyone, when faced with a parent who belittles them and allows others to do the same, is not likely to trust that person very much. It sounds like the child is not a part of the family, except insofar as the entire family makes fun of him because his mom takes him on vacation.

I could not possibly disagree with you and your tone more.[/quote]
