Hey all,
Now that I'm doing somewhat better (Don't know why, just woke up feeling better this morning) I have to deal with my Ex-Inlaws stirring up trouble. My Divorce was finalized on the 13th... I have full physical custody of my three sons.... Joint legal custody. The other day, I posted a rant about my Ex-MIL on a divorce support forum.... and forgot that her other daughter was the one to show the forum to me! So the Ex-SIL shows the rant to everyone in the family.... This is several days after the MIL, FIL and I had a fight.... I had to go pick up my sons beds from the Ex's apartment and that threw me into a MASSIVE depressive episode.... It was BAD. I haven't felt that bad since I found out about the affair.... I'm sure some of you saw my posts about feeling like a failure.... So, I am now hearing that the Ex-MIL is calling "professionals" and telling them I'm not taking my meds..... But I am! I take my meds religiously, especially my depakote. She is VERY upset that I am restricting her access to the children.... She had the gall to tell my two youngest that they didn't have to listen to me when I told them to do their chores! I'm sorry, but if you can't respect my house/ my rules, then you don't get access to my children.... I simply said that from now on the Ex would have to pick up the boys, I would not be dropping them off at the Ex-Inlaws or letting them pick the boys up. The ex is too busy galavanting with her GF (yeah, GF) to spend time with her kids. I'm guessing that she is trying to get someone to say that I am unfit and yank the kids away from me..... FML, I don't need this in my life!

Your inlaws are childish and I'm glad you are standing your ground. Your kids are really lucky to have you

I would be furious at the ex SIL!!! that's so mean.
Your ex MIL sounds horrid too, can't believe that she'd undermine your authority with the kids - what's that going to do for the kids but confuse them, cause unnecessary conflict and risk turning them into demanding brats (not that I think your kids are like that but if she teaches them to not listen to you and be uncooperative and unhelpful that's what you end up with) Was she subversive like this when you and her daughter were together? I know my sister struggles with my mum undermining her discipline with her kid.

Yes, she has always been troublesome with the kids. She thinks that the ex and I are incompetent. (The ex became incompetent.... I honestly wonder if she had a mental breakdown...)
This BLOWS....

Here's what you should do. Keep your house clean, your kids clean and fed. It's hard to mark someone as "unfit" when you have healthy and happy kids.
