My jaw may have dropped when I read that. Who says this shit! She doesn't know the meaning of Christmas and she's in the process of passing that on to her children.
Ignore this if you wish...what's an example of a present she gifts you & her Dad with? Is she a thoughtful person?
oh, I could write a book on what shitty parents they are. My hubs birthday was in October, as a birthday present for him, she got herself a tattoo that said Daddy's girl.
I can't tell you where things went wrong. What I can tell you is that hubby's first wife walked out on him and 3 kids when his youngest was 2. She told him she couldn't handle being a mother anymore, emptied the bank account and took off with a trucker. I've heard from family members that hubs always put his kids first, he doted on them & made sure they had what they needed even if he had to go without. Hell, he didn't even start dating again until the youngest was 14.
His oldest (a boy) would rather drink all day than be a productive member of society. He's lived in a homeless shelter for the past few year.
The middle one (the step daughter referenced above) is married to a 30 year old guy with no teeth, who plays video games all day. She works full time, but hands her paycheck over to him, which he spends on himself. They've been evicted out of 8 places in the last 5 years and currently live in a fleabag hotel
The youngest couldn't tell the truth to save her life. She hasn't talked to us in a year or so because I asked her to apply for medicaid when she got pregnant. I felt that her father shouldn't have to pay for that fact that she couldn't be bothered to use a condom, but she was perfectly happy to let all the bills go to her father. We finally got her off of our insurance last month, but we still got to pay the $6,000.00 deductible.
The hubs is the most caring, compassionate human being I have ever met, but he manged to produce 3 very self serving children.
