abusive stepmother

[stealth2]

Also, who is the "we" you refer to in your posts? That's been asked a few times and not answered.

Actually, she did - it's her Mom and her. Though... Granny has no more place at the table than stepmom. Just sayin'.

We include my mother she is who I currently live with

Grandma has NO RIGHTS to be involved at all. You complain about stepmom and yet you allow a legal stranger to interfere. That is not ANY better. And truthfully mom comes across as a hypocrite.

They are in a prekindergarden classes 4 days a week.They come and get them everyThursday evening and returns them late Sunday(they claim this 50 percent of the time,there pursuing half custody).

And even if dad gets joint custody that means nothing.

I am not a drama queen I use that title to catch attention to this thread.(obviously it worked)

Actually it makes you look like a lying over the top hypocrite. Should I continue?

I don't believe that this is extreme abuse.But I really needed to know when exactly she is crossing the line.In my opinion she had(saying she can do what ever she wants to them).

Nope. She hasn't.

I also don't want to come across as petty in a courtroom or at the lawyers office.

Well you are definitely coming across as petty here.

P.S. anything to protect my beloved children

Really? Well the children will be going to see dad. You can count on that.

Bad haircuts and cutting nails is child abuse now?

For the sake of your children I hope that you can put petty issues like that aside. They will see and feel all the tension and it's not good for them. You can't control everything that goes on at dad's house any more than he can control what happens at yours. The sooner that everyone stops trying to control the other, the better things get for the 2 innocent kids stuck in the middle of the chaos.

For that disgusting lie, I would never help you, ever.

SEE! Me too!

And really? "I'm not a drama queen, I posted something crazily inflammatory to get attention."

HUH?

OP is bitter and jealous of stepmom, that's clear as day. Poor kids!

 

[wileybunch]

OK, granted, OP should not have created drama to get factual legal and wise advice.

That said, these are things moms could likely be concerned about. Not that there is anything OP can do about it and she will come to learn it by posting here and realizing where the legal boundaries are.

Poor Kids??

heh. poor STEPMOM, as well!

she'll never do anything right, her every move and word will be scrutinized and evaluated through mom's pettiness and the kids will be torn emotionally if they allow themselves to like her!
