TODAY | October 29, 2013
>>> we have new developments in the search for four escaped prisoners in oklahoma. two of the men are still at large. kerry sanders has more on that.
>> reporter: two are still on the loose but two are captured 20 miles from here. they're back in the jail this morning where there's new questions of how a jail that's only a year old and cost more than $2 million to build. back in custody and back in jail thanks to investigators with the da's office who saw the men flipping into this convenience store where they bought $6 of junk food .
>> they paid for their stuff and they walked outside and the cops, about ten of them got them.
>> reporter: from the outside, the caddo county detention center where the inmates escaped looks like a fortress. no windows, razor wire, cameras. the four escaped through a trapped door above the shower and through a concrete wall and into freedom. embarrassing because the $8 million jail here is only a year old.
>> they have a lot of explaining to do. new facility, state of the art . someone goofed up.
>> reporter: this is one of the old jails. they don't build them like this anymore for humane reasons but in old jail cells like this, there was only one way in and one way out. the sheriff here says contractors sealed every trap door but he says that may not be enough.
>> no, i can't say that it won't happen again. there's lots of ways, you know, that people escape jails. i can't say it won't happen again. we hope it don't happen again.
>> reporter: i misspoke. it wasn't $2 million to build the jail. it's $8 million to build the jail and that's why the county commissioners here started an inquiry for the contractor and architect to find out what went wrong. the builder says they have started a top to bottom review. the architect, aip, did not return calls from nbc news, matt.
>>> all right. kerry sanders in oklahoma this morning. thanks as always.

Wesley Crosby gave up football five years ago, after his girlfriend had a baby. "It was time to grow up and be an adult, time to stop playing games," he says. At age 27, Crosby works as a hospital lab technician, but he saw the Miami Storm as a chance to get back to a position he really loved, defensive lineman. "I just want to bust heads," he says.
Calvin Gray, 21 years old, just wanted to prove his own worth. Gray's vision is so bad that he cannot legally drive a car. Cataracts and glaucoma severely blur his sight and cause him to see double. In high school he was segregated into classes for handicapped children, which angered him. But on the football field he was given no special consideration. "My vision is bad," he allows, "but I play center. All I have to do is hit the biggest guy in front of me. I can see a big person."
Like his teammate Leroy Edmonds, Gray played well at Southridge, and when he graduated in 1989, he had both the grades and the offers to play college ball. His SAT scores, however, which totaled 420 out of a possible 1600, were nearly 300 points shy of the National Collegiate Athletic Association's requirement for eligibility. Gray has been studying part time at Miami-Dade Community College, and searching for work without much luck. In Jim Chambers he saw a chance to show he could succeed. "I've been criticized all my life," he explains. "But when I play football, I'm proving to people that you can have a vision problem and still be an athlete."
Kicker Shawn Hale has lived more football lives than most. When he walked onto the practice field and banged 40- and 50-yard field goals as if they were extra points, he easily guaranteed himself a place on his sixth semipro team in the past thirteen years. "You're not a failure until you give up. As long as there is a league, I'm going to play," vows the 31-year-old ballplayer, who came to Chambers's league after stints with the Florida Suns, the Miami Cowboys, the Miami Legend, and the Buctown Buccaneers. When he was the place kicker for the Florida Renegades, a team that folded in 1989, Hale commuted between Homestead and West Palm Beach, 100 miles up and 100 miles back, five nights every week, to attend practice. He's still hoping for another shot at the pros. "Hopefully I can get on somewhere," says Hale, a construction supervisor with a wife and two small children. "You never know." His longest field goal, a 62-yarder for the Buccaneers in 1986, falls only one yard short of the NFL record set in 1970 by Tom Dempsey.
Hale has tried out in four pro camps - Redskins, Dolphins, Falcons, and the Birmingham Stallions of the USFL - but has so far never been able to make the final cut. His wife Micki says he doesn't let it show, but she knows he's disappointed. "Sometimes I really do wish he would give it up and spend more time at home," she asserts. "But if I made him do that or it wasn't his own choice, he'd be miserable."
Free safety Dez Jackson was miserable a few years ago when he broke his hand in a fight and lost his shot at going to the University of West Virginia on a scholarship. "My parents didn't have the money for me to finish school," says the 22-year-old Jackson, who grew up in Liberty City and still lives there with his aunt. The area was a good training ground for a football player, he says - you learned to play hard, stay tough, and, most important, move fast. "You run from dogs in the street a lot," Jackson explains. "You'll be walking down the street and a dog would break out of a yard and you've got to run."
What Jackson wants is an opportunity to have a pro scout see him play. "All I need is a look," he insists. "Canadian League, World League, NFL, it doesn't matter, as long as it pays. The only person who hits harder than me is [All-Pro safety] Ronnie Lott. If my mama was running the ball, I'd hit her hard, too."
Randy Seymour spent four years behind bars after being convicted of robbery when he was fifteen. "I was bad. I was using drugs and I was out there stealing to support my habit. And I went to prison; that's why I missed my high school days," says the 21-year-old wide receiver. Now, he says simply, "I just want to move forward. Here's my chance."
"These are guys that if you see them on the street, you would go, `Oh, let me get away from them,'" says 22-year-old Tony Rodriguez, who works in his family's freight-shipping business. "But here you get to know them on a different level. You suffer with them, you cry with them, you go through the pains of practice with them, and it unifies people."
Part Two
Rodriguez gave up football when he dropped out of Southwest High to get married after his junior year. The marriage never materialized, and he eventually went back to high school to earn his diploma. But by that time, he says, he was no longer eligible to play high school sports and had missed his chance for a college football scholarship. "I'm sure I would have had a shot at some school," says the six-foot-one, 300-pound lineman. "Probably not a big school, but a small school at least. It would have meant an education, which my family couldn't afford. It would have meant a different life."

- Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, then the buttermilk and orange zest. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated.
- Spread half the batter into the prepared baking dish. Dollop 1 cup cranberry sauce over the top, then gently spread, swirling it into the batter. Top with the remaining batter, then dollop with the remaining cranberry sauce.
- Sprinkle the walnuts over the top and bake until the cake is golden brown and a pick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- While the cake cools, make the icing: In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle the icing over the warm cake, then let cool completely before serving.

Support to KSMS Improves Access to Finance in East Africa's Agricultural Sector
USAID East Africa Regional Director Lawrence Meserve spoke at the September 7th launch of the East Africa Agricultural Finance Network and the formal launch of the Certificate in Agricultural Finance at the Kenya School of Monetary Studies (KSMS) in Nairobi. The event was the culmination of recommendations that came out of the 'Growing Africa through Finance' forum that was hosted jointly by the KSMS and the USAID/COMPETE in March 2010.
Both initiatives are aimed at increasing dialog and building capacity between the financial sector and the agricultural sector within EAC member countries. The Secretary General of the East African Community, Dr. Richard Sezibera, the Kenya Minister for Agriculture Dr. Sally Kosgei and the Governor of the Central Bank of Kenya, Professor Njuguna Ndung'u also delivered remarks.
The East Africa Agricultural Finance Network (EAAFN) has a 12 member Advisory board drawn from Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda. In Kenya, the financial sector is represented by Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) from various institutions including the Kenya Women's Finance Trust (KWFT), the Kenya Bankers Association (KBA), the Agricultural Finance Corporation (AFC), the Kenya Rural Savings and Credit Co-operative Societies Union (KERUSSU) and the African Rural and Agricultural Credit Association (AFRACA). Uganda and Rwanda, are represented by the CEOs of the Uganda Bankers Association and Rwanda Bankers Association respectively, while Tanzania is represented by the CEO of the CRDB Bank. The principal objective of the Network is to serve as a clearing house of technology, joint ventures, public private partnerships, investment and lending opportunities in the East African agricultural industry.
The Certificate in Agricultural Finance or CAF is a three-module programme that targets participants from commercial banks, Micro-finance Institutions (MFIs), Agricultural SACCOs and the Ministries of Trade, Agriculture Livestock and Industry and is intended to equip participants with practical knowledge, skills and attitudes that will enable them to professionally perform agricultural lending related duties. CAF's objective is to integrate internships and practical projects in its curriculum through a Case Study approach.
The Certificate in Agricultural Finance kicked off in earnest on 12 April 2011 with 37 participants from four East African countries (Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda) who were selected to take part in the first module of the course. The trainees followed up their classroom training with internships at their places of work. Of the 37 participants, 20 were sponsored by USAID/COMPETE and 17 were sponsored from their nominating institutions. It is envisaged that the program will go a long way towards strengthening and streamlining agricultural lending practices in Eastern and Southern Africa.

Custodial parent titles
I am starting a new thread because someone revived an old thread and lately, I have been thinking a lot about this issue because my stepdaughter has been living full time with us for nearly four years and her mom has less & less to do with her.
Yesterday, we had a little breakthrough... well, I did. We had a meeting with her school (Friday after school) to discuss retention for next year because this is the second trimester she has gotten 2 D's & 2 F's in all her academic classes & we feel we've tried everything to get through to her. We've had this appointment for over a week so DH called BM to tell her about it at the beginning of the week. Right away, she tells him the baby is sick so she probably can't go. I know I need to learn how to ignore it & let it go, but for some reason it just pissed me off! If she doesn't want to go... don't use your new baby as an excuse. She uses the new baby as a reason she shouldn't have to pay support... it just angers me after watching her neglect and emotionally damage her daughter for the last four years, now she makes another baby & he is her new excuse for all the crap she did BEFORE she had him. So, when DH told me what she said, I opened my mouth & gave DH my opinion. I asked him to imagine the tables turned... SD lives with BM & DH tries to get out of an important meeting with the school.. what would BM say to him? He said she would ream him... because she used to ream him if he didn't do what she wanted, which is what started the custody battle to begin with. I told him that he is SD's voice & he really needs to fight for her. He may not be able to make BM do anything but he should not make it so easy for her to flake on SD & hurt her. So on Wednesday, he called BM and told her she really needs to be there.. he let her know how much her uninvolvement hurts SD & that SD needs her mom to be a mom & show she loves her by coming to her stuff. Of course, BM retorts that SD knows she loves her & she does put SD first... she would be there but the baby has an ear infection & possibly pneumonia. Now, if any other woman said that, I would feel horrible that the baby is sick... it would be a reasonable excuse to not attend. BUT BM is such a liar & she predicts on Monday that the baby will still be sick on Friday? DGS2 just had a REALLY bad ear infection & after 2 days on antibiotics, he was feeling better & back to his happy self. DH suggested BM have grandma babysit so BM can be there & she said there's no way she can leave her sick baby with ANYONE. I'll feel horrible & guilty if the baby really is sick but at the moment, I seriously doubt it & the look on SD's face when her teacher said BM can't be here because baby is sick.. SD knows it's a lie too. Anyway, BM had called the school & wanted to be on speaker phone during the meeting. The teacher was concerned about using the phone in the classroom because it couldn't be moved & was on the other side of the room... she didn't think BM would be able to hear. She said she wished she had her cell phone, so I had mine & offered to let her use it. We placed the phone on the table & dialed BM. When she answered, the teacher did all the talking, but I know my number came up on her caller ID and I could tell from her tone, she was irritated. We started the conference & BM said nothing until about ten minutes into the meeting, she said she can't hear anything with "THAT cell phone" so she asked to use a landline. So, they set up the call on the class phone... from across the room, so teachers had to talk loud ` almost yelling. The meeting resumed and BM was still talking about how this phone is much better... and then the teacher asked BM for her opinion on how to help SD. SILENCE. Teacher repeats it. SILENCE. So, teacher say "BM? Are you there?" BM says yeah. Teacher changes question to "What do you think of SD repeating the 6th grade?" and BM says "That's fine. Whatever you guys want to do." and the look on SD's face went from embarrassed (she looked so embarrassed when her teachers are trying to talk to her mom.. yelling & BM not answering their questions.) It was obvious BM couldn't really hear the conversation on the class phone. And the only input BM gave was basically saying she didn't care one way or the other... even one of the teachers rolled eyes & another's mouth fell open. SD began crying, admitted she isn't trying her best & I wanted to scream... I wanted to scream at BM & tell her teachers that THAT IS THE PROBLEM!!! But then one of the teachers said they heard a click. BM had hung up. I feel bad for SD because the root of the problems SD is having is having a BM, for the last four years (maybe even longer) telling SD that I am not her mom... she is. Which is fine because it's true... but then if you are going to demand a title, live up to it. BE A FREAKIN MOM!!! I think BM hung up because while DH said a little, I did a lot more talking to the teachers about how to find solutions, and about the problems I see with how SD does school... procrastinating, not taking it seriously, etc. The end result was that they are placing SD in a smaller class where struggling kids get more help. (they described it as low achievers) and I'm sure that was a blow to SD because I know when I was in school, many kids made fun of kids in "different" classes, like special ed. I know kids can be mean... but the last thing we really WANT for SD is to hold her back. We want her to work on her study & work habits so she can keep up next year. But, she was crying & upset, but in my opinion, it was more from the realization that her mom didn't bother to come, made up a lame excuse (because grandma was waiting at the school when the meeting was over, so SD was going to BM's & will see for herself is baby brother is really sick) and even though she was there by phone, she had no input or concern for the problems SD is having... she made a bigger deal over what phone they called her on. It was a new pathetic low for BM. She would have been better off just being a no show.
I guess my point is that SD is having so many problems and a lot of it has to do with her insistence that she is the mom & doing/saying whatever to SD, to make sure SD & I don't have a relationship. I'm actually thinking of getting ME into counseling because it's been so hard for me to watch, I get so full of anger toward BM & everything SD does frustrates me... because she regularly throws me under the bus with her mom & that makes it that much harder to live together... and BM obviously isn't going to rescue her.
Then I have custody of my grandson. He's been with me since he was 9 months old & he'll be 2 this weekend. His mom sees him for a few hours (supervised) every week or two weeks. She moved a couple of hours away & relies on her grandparents to drive her... they are getting tired of the drive. Since DGS is with me 99% of the time, he occasionally says "MOMMY" to me. We always refer to me as GRANDMA, but he likes to say MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY. He knows DIL is his mommy, he calls her mommy & cries when she leaves. There's no question he knows who his mom is... but he said mommy & looked at me during a visit & DIL corrected him. She got upset & made a big deal of it. There was a noticeable difference in DGS's behavior following that. I didn't say anything to DIL because she was leaving & I didn't want to have a scene... she would think nothing of yelling at me (I think because of her mental issues) & DGS does not need to see that.
But, it's clearly going to be an issue & as a mom, I understand how it feels.. my son called his stepmom "mama SM" at her request. My opinion is that kids know who their parents are, they know who takes care of them, they know who they can count on, etc. and it may be a whole group of people so they should be allowed to choose how they want to refer to the people in their lives. It might bother me if my child called someone else mom but called me by my first name... but then I would have to wonder WHY they want to do that? I do not agree with any adult telling a child how to address them... except maybe a parent that is teaching a child. ie. If they call a parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle by their first name. I think children need to be taught that saying Uncle Bob instead of just Bob is a sign of respect for elders in the family hierarchy. But, that's just my opinion.
Bless that young girl's heart!
Sometimes the healthiest thing, indeed the *only* healthy thing, is to sever the ties as much as possible:
It sounds to me (always remembering that I am an outsider) like she would have been much better off had her 'real mother' not been involved at all, let alone dragged into it.
She obviously knows exactly what her 'relationship' is with her birth mother, but it seems to me that she might think that, since you & her dad keep dragging her mother into her life, that maybe you don't want her either, that you want to dilute the relationship.
not by any means presenting a case, it's just a troubling thought.
I don't like to hear children call their parents by the parents' given name, either;
life is confusing enough without having to wonder if your mother is really your mother or if she's a big ole ditzy girlfriend with a lot of freedom & no sense.
My great-grandmother said we were to call her "Mammie"-
weird-sounding today, I know, but not so much back then.
She said she wanted us to know who she was & to know that she wasn't just another grandmother ("granny jones" or "granny edna").
If you're fulfilling the mother role, I think you need your own motherly moniker, maybe not mommy, but mummy or mama or something-
I bet your grandson can learn to call you Auntie Mame or Earth Mother Griselda if you constantly repeat & reinforce.
oh my, don't even know what to say...
BM is so disgusting. I wonder if her older DD does well in school and if she is involved in her life, probably not. What a loser. Poor SD. Poor DGS, has a loser for a mother too.
I don't have any particular opinion on how children should call family members though.
I agree on the name thing. I have this issue. sM was insisting that DD call her mom and me by my first name while with them. That issue has died down. I wasn't against it because my momma claws were coming out. I was against it because DD knows SM by her first name and deciding 4 yrs in to it 'you WILL call me MOM and your MOMMY is no longer your MOM when in my house'. And it really ticked me off that BD and SM force DD to say 'Dad' instead of 'daddy' when DD has always called him daddy but Now at 9 1/2 she needs to be more mature and say 'DAD'. Dd gets so confused and scared to mess up the new rules. She is so eager to please and scared to get into trouble.
As far as the grades and school go, you are absolutely right that SD is having issues BECAUSE of BMs lack of being involved. When my daughter was in 2nd grade, we had the falling out with BD and SM and BD was no longer allowed access for about 6 months until they started supervised visitation started. The system was just slow and it took that long to get it started. DD was literally failing 2nd grade. She would put her head down all day and refuse to participate or do any work. The teacher was at a loss bc in 2nd grade you don't see this type of withdraw except in severe cases. Things got better as the visists started and the last two yrs have been good school wise. She is mostly a B student with the occassional A even though she is in the gifted program. For the last two six weeks she has been having unsupervised visits and started every other weekend and although we have our issues and Dd expresses concerns and problems while with SM, she for the first time has been a straight A student. As much as I hate to admit it, I believe her focus at school and her higher grades comes from her BD finally being involved and in her life full time again. (even though he isn't always present during the visists). He is taking her to school once a week and twice a week when it's his weekend. So I see a huge difference in her because he is now more than just a twice a month visitor to the family services center. I have no advice. You can't force BM to be a mom. You can just be their for SD and hope this new situation helps her.
Counseling for you is a great idea. It's helped me so much. I am building the confidence in myself that I have lost over the years and I'm growing so much by having a neutral person on MY SIDE.
I am usually a lurker on the stepfamily board, but many of the things you are saying in this post and the venting post hit close to home because I am in a similar situation with 12 y.o. SD.
She goes to BM's house every other weekend unless BM can come up with a reason why it would be better for us to have her. And, usually I agree that it is better that she stay with us because we are the only place where she has rules and expectations. At the same time, I get angry because who wouldn't want to take advantage of whatever time they can get with their child. Add to the mix that I also get resentful that I am here day in and day out without a break from the disrespect, bad attitude, and work of it all, and I get no say in her staying or going for the weekend, but BM gets to decide gets me feeling mad and guilty and confused about all the things going through my head.
I feel for your SD because it must be crushing to have to relearn all over again that her mom does not care to be involved in her life. It seems that SDs will always give the BM the benefit of the doubt and will forgive and think they might actually come through this time, so it is like a fresh cut each time.
SD wants BM to be if not involved at least more interested, and in our case, SD does not know where her rage comes from, but I know it is from not getting the attention from the one person she wants it from the most. I have told DH, I am here - I am the one doing the raising, disciplining, loving (as hard as that can be sometimes), but it does not matter because she needs her mom. Let me clarify, she needs who she wants her mom to be. Her mom talks a good game to SD but getting her to follow through is difficult.
In this situation, I think it is traumatic for all of us. Even though there are some good days, the bad days are more numerous and leave everyone feeling scathed. SD has experienced a lot of tumult throughout her life, and while I understand her apathy and anger and hurt, it does not make it any easier to live with. We are in the same boat as far as counseling as well because SD is very good at telling people the things they want to hear and takes the wrong kind of advantage of the counseling sessions. It becomes more of a thing of interest for her to tell her friends than a tool for her to open up to someone. I am very much leaning toward trying it again because BM is bipolar and many of the ways in which SD acts out are the same, but I sometimes am afraid that SD acts in such a way in order to feel closer to her mom because they have that in common. It is just all very difficult.
The push and pull of everything can be quite draining, and I think individual counseling is a good idea - I am thinking of going also just so I can keep my head above water because my nerves are so frayed due to the nonstop arguing and everything else. I just wonder if this is what 12 is like then what are we in for when the real teen years start?? I hope you have a very supportive husband at least most of the time. My DH can be very supportive; he tries to back me up, but there are times that he just does not see what is going on or does not engage as much as I think he needs to. I think our marriage is strong, but we are exhausted going round in circles.
Anyway, I apologize that have no real advice to give - I just wanted to share that there is someone else going through something very similar. I do hope your SD and your whole family is able to find peace.
"I feel for your SD because it must be crushing to have to relearn all over again that her mom does not care to be involved in her life. It seems that SDs will always give the BM the benefit of the doubt and will forgive and think they might actually come through this time, so it is like a fresh cut each time.
SD wants BM to be if not involved at least more interested, and in our case, SD does not know where her rage comes from, but I know it is from not getting the attention from the one person she wants it from the most. I have told DH, I am here - I am the one doing the raising, disciplining, loving (as hard as that can be sometimes), but it does not matter because she needs her mom. Let me clarify, she needs who she wants her mom to be. Her mom talks a good game to SD but getting her to follow through is difficult."
EXACTLY!!! Thank you mama22 for sharing.
Sylvia~ DH & BM shared 50/50 custody without a court order until SD was in 2nd grade. During that year, BM threatened DH for the umpteenth time that she was going to take SD away & not let him see her because he didn't do what she wanted. I take the blame in sharing my experience in family law... I told him he has RIGHTS but without a court order, she very well could take SD & he had nothing to say he has a right to see her. So, after the third time she threatened him with that, he filed to get his rights on paper. She immediately filed for full custody & child support. (He didn't file anything for child support because if they both have 50/50, they are each supporting her the same... but the issue of support was brought by BM initially) She spent the duration of the battle (about 6 months) telling SD how "daddy is trying to take you away from me" and reassuring her that she won't let that happen. She tried to manipulate the therapist, got SD to tell the therapist that she really wanted to just live with BM... but then SD had no explanation of why. Then three weeks after their trial & DH getting his court order for 50/50, BM moved during DH's week & kinda dropped SD in his lap saying she couldn't take SD with her so she's gonna let him have her "temporarily" and that devastated SD. Within a few months, SD was telling classmates she was moving with BM & saying her goodbyes. BM was telling her how we took her away but that she was going to get her & she was going to go live there with BM. It was all lies. During the first year, BM canceled weekends which only made SD more emotionally upset. We would make plans to do fun stuff to keep her mind off it, but SD would spend the whole time talking about "if my mom was here ______" and though she was in counseling, she refused to open up. Instead, she said what she thought everyone wanted to hear. She got bad about lying to her second counselor, pretending everything in the world was fine... she doesn't NEED counseling. But, all along, BM has been the one keeping it alive. When she would come get SD, she would always (yes, every time) show up hours early & sign her out of school early. SD wasn't doing real well to begin with because of her emotional stuff dealing with BM moving away so suddenly. Finally DH told her she had to let SD finish the day in school because she is falling behind & needs to be there as much as possible. It wasn't convenient for BM to wait around so that's when BM started sending grandma to get her. That was three years ago. DH took BM to court a year later asking that only BM may pick up SD. Grandma was picking her up & taking her to BM (sometimes keeping her instead too) but BM was not giving her much attention, which caused the emotional problems to get worse... so DH figured if he got an order forcing BM to come get her, she would either drive up to get her (showing she cared) or cancel more time, which was kinda what we were hoping. We did not want to ask the court to cut off BM's time because all along, BM has been feeding SD lies that we are just trying to remove her from the picture & that would have seemed true if he tried to cut off BM's time. We've tried involving her in activities so she would rather be here than with BM... none of it has worked. BM has insisted all along, SD will eventually live there. I think SD stopped trying in school because she figured it doesn't matter because she's going to be leaving to go live with mom anyway. As long as BM continues to feed SD lies & false hope with promises, and as long as SD believes (or wants to believe) BM will follow through, it feels as if we are stuck. It seems like SD knows her mom is full of it, but she's not ready to admit it or face it. I think it has been a very slow process but seeing mom have another baby that not only gets to live with her, but since the baby is the string to holding on to the BF, BM appears to dote on him to SD (plus babies need all the attention too). Personally, I think BM schleps him off on others most of the time but doesn't want us to know that so she dotes on him around SD, which only makes things harder for her because she has struggled for years to get mom to pay attention to her & her mom, in trying to show us what a happy family she has with BF & baby, it's probably a knife through SD's heart each time. SD is realizing that BM is probably never going to seek custody of her and have her live there, especially now that they had to move from a fairly huge 4 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom mobile home. and Friday, SD saw that mom could care less what happens to her as far as school goes. I think SD knows that she won't be living with BM next year & BM says "I don't care if she has to repeat 6th grade again!" I mean, I don't always get along well with her & I do come across as harsh sometimes, but I care what happens to her. I think it's important for her to have an education & the biggest reason I am in favor of holding her back is because DH told her that if things don't improve, and if she keeps getting F's in multiple classes, he would have to hold her back because it indicates she is not ready to do more advanced work. But we don't WANT to see her held back, we want to see her work habits get better because each year, the assignments get harder. The bottom line is DH said it will happen if she continues to lie about finishing or turning in her work. She just admitted that she goes to a morning tutor class where she's supposed to bring questions about math & get an understanding so she can improve, she admitted she goes to the class & just sits there. Well, we all have been getting up an hour early twice a week for her to go so she can get help understanding math but her grade actually went down since she started it. We understand she has problems but she also needs to be at least trying, but she's been giving lip service and holding her back is a last resort. BM didn't want to discuss options to help her... so seeing her mom has an "I don't care" attitude, I'm getting hopeful she is going to come around. I saw something in her face I had never seen before and it just broke my heart. Another reason I think she and I have not been able to get along is that I think she knows that I don't believe or buy into her BS... she knows that I know what her mom is all about. I'm sure she knows much better because she is behind the scenes with her mom & hears her mom lying about stuff she knows about. She's now getting to the age where she's figuring out that mom lies to her the way she lies to everyone else. But, by no means have we been dragging BM into SD's life. Personally I think SD would be better off if BM would either step up or step off.. but this constant roller coaster she keeps her on is so hard on her. I don't know if that dynamic can be changed as long as SD fantasizes about living with her mom & BM keeps the dream alive with empty promises. We cannot financially afford to instigate a court proceeding to limit BM's contact, although it has been suggested that he seek supervised visits because of how BM discusses everything with SD.
Me personally, I have been so frustrated I have welcomed the thought of SD going to live with her mom. AT least then she would see that it's not the fantasy that she has drummed up in her head. BM is focused on the new baby & trying to salvage her relationship with BF. I think deep down, SD knows it but still fantasizes that it would be different if she just lived there. The worse part in SD's situation is that it's such a long heartbreaking process to go through... and she may never actually give up on the fantasy. We can only hope.
IMA you have taken on so much with SD and DGS! Without you in their lives I can only imagine what would happen to them. They are so lucky to have you looking out for them.
BM is pathetic. I wouldn't doubt her baby was perfectly healthy and she just did not want to attend the meeting because she knows that when it comes to her daughter she is clueless on anything. And I feel bad for your SD as she sees this and has to deal with the realizations that come with it.
As far as names go I would definately correct DGS when he calls you mommy. I had a friend who went off into the army and while overseas his wife took off with another man and left their son behind. The grandmother took over guardianship and raised the son for years. She allowed the child to call her mommy. Well my friend came home and said how awkward it was for him to have his child call his mom mommy. They would be out in public together and this child would be calling them mommy and daddy! LOL Imagine the looks they got with a young guy and way older woman!
I think that would be very confusing for a child to deal with as they got older. I think you are better off coming up with some cute nickname for DGS to call you instead of mommy.
Ima, that's heartbreaking.
If the risk weren't so huge, I'd be tempted to tell birth mom & stepdaughter, "fine, go live together & have a nice life", figuring that stepdaughter would get a crash course in reality & be back home faster this way than any other.
but the risk is stepdaughter's emotional devastation at the very least.
holding you & her in my thoughts & in my heart.
'your MOMMY is no longer your MOM when in my house'
People who re-order reality so that they have more power never get enough power;
you can't give them enough,
there *isn't* enough.
Be very careful.
"People who re-order reality so that they have more power never get enough power;
you can't give them enough,
there *isn't* enough."
I got an email recently from BM's BF's ExW. She was telling me about how her daughter came home upset that SD had made her pinky promise not to tell anyone but that her mom is trying everything to steal her dad away from SD's mom. I can't imagine what would possess a parent to share their insecurities that the ex wife is trying to steal her BF from her... and then how upsetting it was for BF's DD to be told such a thing & be expected to keep it a secret.. and it wasn't even true. SICK!
Well, considering BM is still talking about marrying BF, has set two dates & bought dresses among other things for a wedding but no wedding has taken place and legally can't because she's still married.... who would do that to a child when everyone knows children usually believe everything they are told. And for years, BM tells everyone in their small town how she is raising all the children... the BF's three that live with his exW and SD that lives with us & her other DD that was living with grandma. The woman lives in her own reality!
And I know that if DH let SD go live there, she would either be devastated when BM refuses to take her or if she does take her, SD would become another built in babysitter just like older DD & grandma...
I would like to think she would get a dose of reality & want to come back... with a different attitude & outlook, but the risk is also that she would stay there, BM would let her do whatever because she is too busy/preoccupied with her own life to care what her kids do, and SD would get into trouble so BM would send her back to us because she doesn't clean up her own messes, she isn't gonna do it for her kids.
BTW, her older daughter seems to be doing well in school & does not have the same kind of emotional problems as SD. I think she isn't always very nice to SD... teases her & does what some older sisters do, etc. But, older DD was basically raised by grandma & has a dad that values a good education... his other two kids are in college & older DD is already talking about going off to college in a couple of years... she's apparently anxious to leave for college now that BM has to move to the smaller house.

Cultural Factors Why should the Western health care system adapt to the needs of other cultural groups? Why don't they learn to speak English?... Most would say, Yes they should adapt to our culture and learn our language. However, that is not the most compassionate or practical response. Unless cultural differences are taken into account we can not provide optimal health care for all patients. Misunderstandings can often lead to misdiagnoses, as is the case of coin rubbing or danger signals can be overlooked with a stoic Asian patient. A nurse who lacks knowledge about biocultural, psycho sociological, and linguistic differences evident in diverse multicultural populations is likely to make inaccurate assessments. Illness, specially illness that requires hospitalization, is the very time when we are most likely to regress and behave in ways that were reinforced in childhood. These cultural behaviors are a result of adaptation to both the physical and the social environment. Cultures develop norms, values, and behaviors that are suited to that environment. Over time, they take on the strength of tradition. Even when circumstances change, traditions often do not, early conditioning is very hard to overcome. Whether patients should speak English and adapt to our ways and customs is irrelevant. The fact is that they do not and may not. The options then are to provide inferior nursing care or to make accommodations so as to provide optimal care. In a multicultural society such as ours, nurses are likely to encounter clients from diverse settings. Projections are that by the year 2000, at least one fourth of the population of the United States will represent an ethnic minority. As nurses we need to develop a cultural insight and a deeper appreciation and respect for the rights of culturally diverse individuals. When cultural beliefs and practices are not appropriately identified, the significance of behavior may confuse the nurse and result in the delivery of inappropriate care. The goal of the health care system is to provide optimal care for all patients. In a multiethnic society such as ours, this can be accomplished only if the health care providers understand such things as why Asian patients rarely ask for pain medication whereas patients from Mediterranean countries seem to need it for the slightest discomfort, why Middle Eastern patients will not allow a male physician to examine their women, and that coin rubbing is an Asian form of medical treatment, not a method of child abuse.
We must keep in mind that culture and ethnicity are strong
determinants in an individual's interpretation or perception of
health and illness. Religion, ethnicity, and culture interweave into
the fabric of each response of a particular individual to treatment
and healing. References
