I apologize for my lack of entries this week.  We have been working diligently on getting the settlement agreement for modification of custody and child support ready.  The papers were sent to Nick's Mom via e-mail.  For a day or 2 she was saying she didn't receive the attachments and stuff in order to stall.  Yesterday she spoke, well yelled at, Nick, telling him that he is asking a lot.  Also, she will not sign a d--- thing if he's trying to replace her with me.  He said he's not, but he will not ever live with her and he will not visit her unless she signs the papers.  She got mad and was crying saying no she will not give him up.  What we don't get is if she isn't going to give him up then why has she allowed him to live here for 2 years without even coming out to visit him?  I would do whatever it took to visit my son within 2 years.  She hasn't had a job for 6 months!  She has had unemployment, we offered her the use of a buddy pass, and I told her she could stay here as long as Bryan's out of town-too much drama there, yikes.  Still, she doesn't visit and she makes it out to be she's not going to give up her son, who is of age to choose where he wants to live anyway.  We are hoping that she will just sign the papers so that this will not have to be taken to court.  We're wondering if she's stalling in signing because of the child support removal.  She was getting $600/mo then she insanely filed a garnishment of his wages and then got $400/mo.  In these papers it states that Bryan will continue to pay for the insurance on both Nick and Michaela (plus the rest of us), but will no longer pay child support.  He has one and she has one so that pretty much equals out.  I know she loves Nick, but he has chosen and he's old enough, plus he's lived here for 2 years.  She royally messed up with him and it has taken these 2 years to get him straightened out (at least as well as can be for a teenage boy living in the world and not of it) and she has to understand that, but she doesn't think she's done anything wrong.  Oh, goodness, I could go on and on about this situation.  I'm asking for everyone to please pray about this situation.  Thank you!

Blessings,

what a mess. i do not get these moms. i mean, I do, sometimes. when I realize how the world has trained most of the inhabitants: me me me. But how could you leave your kid. never visit. and then get mad when the kid has no relationship with you? whose fault is that?
