I agree with Sherron - I just knew I couldn't say it without messing it up :) You said that very well!

and re-reading it I'm now questioning dad's statement that things would be different now that he has shared custody... what is that all about? Surely custody status doesn't effect what he will and will not do for his son? barring of course that you didn't have a RO or something of the sort...?

All stepmoms are evil.
*snicker*
Seriously though...she did NOT buy him Thomas the Tank cupcakes *gasp*??!? Talk about a crappy thing to do. Jeez, this year for SS's 14th birthday he got an awesome chocolate cake drizzled with strawberry sauce...maybe she just needs some Stepmom lessons...or maybe she should just move out of the way.

The age old question is not "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
Its "Is dad not involved because the SM is, or is the SM involved because dad isn't?"
Just a general question, not necessarily pertaining to a single birthday cake incident, since apparently dad does seem to be very caring about his sons hurt feelings.

I don't know. I do birthday cakes - for ALL the kids. I get that Dad was supposed to be responsible, blah, blah, but GEEZ. He trusted his wife to not a be a total bytch and he was wrong. I'd still call this thread "evilSM" That stupid bytch CLEARLY knows how to have an exciting birthday for a kid (as evidenced by what she does for HER kids) and after having the kid participate in the ritual for her kids didn't do for this kid, when they clearly had the opportunity? And was pretending to be a huge dumbarse about Thomas the Tank Engine for a 13 year old? Nobody is that effing dumb. I feel sorry for Dad (not as much as the kid obviously, but still). He either has to live with this witch as an ex or sit back and keep the peace while she treats his older kid like cr@p.

But still...that is totally crude and rude. I would NEVER buy SS a childish cake like that. At our house, they all choose what kind of cake they want, and then we go out to dinner at a restaurant of their choosing as well.

Boo-Hiss to the Evil SM. Maybe we can all collectively throw water on her & she'll melt away.
That was like a slap in the face to that boy. To think a 13-YO doesn't KNOW what's up?! How dumb does E-SM think he is?!! My son would be hurt too.

She has been in my son's life since he was 6 1/2 monthes old. It was no oversight. She did this on purpose. She has been doing things like this for awhile now.
