[QUOTE="HopeRemains, post: 533755, member: 14139"] I don't think there is a swim team around here, but we do have a community pool and lake. It doesn't help much when I don't have an extra vehicle, but good news: husband's boss just gave him a motorcycle (on payments) and so I will have the van some of the time this summer to actually get the boys out of the house! They both love the water, though difficult child is very leery of actually "swimming" he showed a lot of progress last year. I will definately get him into the swimming classes that they offer. About BM, it is VERY frustrating. But just as there are so many women I can relate to here about difficult child, there are so many others in similar positions when it comes to their child and the other parent. The closest I've come yet to finding someone with both similar problems is you, Liahona, from reading some of your posts. I guarantee that there is a police report of the incident and I'm afraid that things have been boiling over for awhile now and court will happen this summer/fall. We've changed our minds about it a few times, let's take her, no wait, it's not worth it, what if she only gets a slap on the hands, how will this affect difficult child (because even though we would never even mention court to him, she most definately would), etc. In fact, she tells husband that he and I both are in contempt all the time (me, because she says she can "hear" me talking in the backround, so it must mean I am talking about her, right?- and husband, well, I don't know why, he follows all of the rules) and that she is taking us to court. For years. Somedays I just wish husband would take her to get it over with, but I know that won't "fix" her, Know what I mean?? Trying to find that fine line that is "the best interest of the child" but we just never know. [/QUOTE]
