Scott's life and its burden on me

Well, I am writing this to vent I suppose. It has been said by some that my ex (would say husband but he refuses to sign any papers) Scott, was done wrong by me. I guess some hold pitty for him because he has recently been made to try and fend for himself. Well, here are the facts on all of that.


1) It may surprise most of you that Scott, his girlfriend, her two year old daughter, and now their new baby are living with me. (rent - they never keep paid, dont pay for groceries or utilities, I am their free babysitter while she works, and free driver when Scott cant drive her)


2) This is not the first time Scott and his girlfriends have lived with me.


3) Everytime Scott needs a place to live, needs money, or needs bailed out of trouble, who does he call? Dad and me.


4) He has not paid child support for the four children he blessed me with. I have raised them on my own. (and everyone wonders why I dont have time to move on with my own social life)


5) He, nor his girlfriend  help with household chores, but make plenty of messes.


6) He, nor his girlfriend show any appreciation for help they have been given by Dad or I.


7) This is the best one; I am not allowed to have a date to my house while he is living here. Also, I am not allowed, according to Scott to have a boyfriend attend any family functions. Is that not the kick in the can.?


So, I guess what I am telling you is that Scott is not an innocent party to his life. He makes bad decisions that bring him bad fate. Unfortunately, the kids and I are the one that pays the price each time. The kids get to watch him throw his money away on himself or I suppose now his new baby, but not support them. He is not a nice person to any of his four children. He keeps the house in constant stress.


So why, would we allow him to stay? That is a good question, but we help him because family is suppose to stick together. I try to teach the children that despite what he does to them, he is their Father and should be treated as such. Lastly, just trying to be a good person, but I gotta tell ya, I think there has got to be a limit!


So, for anyone who may feel sorry for Scott, don't. He is being well cared for and I would say loving every minute of it.
