I am so frustrated and depressed right now.

It does NOT sound petty at all. Once every 2 months is far and few between!!!! Are their any neighborhoods kids that you would trust with them for a couple hours?
 
I guess its the other way around for me.
My step-son came home from Iraq (this is a long story) and we had been just about raising his children due to the fact that his wife was out drinking and doing drugs. Well when he got home he had no money and she had not paid one house payment. So, we jump in and pay the house up and get him back on his feet. I call DHR on her and she has to go in and take a drug test and sure enough.... Cocaine. Well, they put the kids in my custody and he files for divorce, of course he gets the kids. Later he meets a great girl that really loves his kids. In the meantime, the kids are over at our house every day when they get out of daycare and school, we feed them because he is working and tired when he gets home. If one of them got sick at school he never had to worry cause I went and got them and took care of them till he was ready for them to come home (they lived on our property right next door) we never went over to hiss house because we did not want to intrude on him. Well, time goes by and he ask the girl to marry him, she says yes but wants to wait cause he is just fresh out of a bad relationship. Well, he starts acting funny and I find out he is talking with a girl he use to date before he was married, she was bad news and they broke up about three times because it just didn't work. Well, the girl he has already ask to marry him ends the relationship cause she found out what he was doing. Well, he knows we don't approve of the girl he use to date so he lies about the fact that he is seeing her. Now, here comes the stupid part, the day after his divorce becomes final he marries the girl he use to date. Now, he is moving the kids 4 hours away to live with her in a house that belongs to her mother and her mother is going to pay their bills so they can both go to school (he has told everyone many times that he is going to school but never does it). Now here is the real kicker, he has even tried to call his dad out in the yard to fight him over this girl and goes around telling his friends that we never help him with the kids. The closer it got to time for him to move he would start going into these rages and try to come outside and start stuff with us or sceam and cuss his 9 year old son. He left the other three younger ones with her about 2 months ago which I think was wrong to do to them. I felt like they should have been with one biological parent so they would not feel deserted.
Anyway, we went out of our way to help him and help with the kids and he turns around and stabs us in the back. He was not thankful one bit for what we have done. I tried to tell him that there are people that would have loved to have had the help that he was ungrateful for.
End of Story, I told you it was a long story.
 
No he has not, I think there is something wrong with him. When he starts in he will say something to the effect..... I'm tired of what your doing, you ask him what he is talking about and he has no explanation.
 
I remember the days of needing a sitter and not being able to find one!! I would sit for you if I were close!! Hope you find time with your SO !! Put those kids to bed early!! LOL;)
 
We have everyone else's children here most every day... there are 7 kids from 5 other families in our family room right now... along with our own 7 kids. Just got back from Costco and half the food we bought is being devoured by others (and it's an everyday but Sunday occurance) .... at least I know where my kids are..... Wish you were close, we would sit for you.

When we were newly married is was so difficult to hire a babysitter, and with little $, they were usually very expensive also... and then you had to find one that you knew you could trust.

Hang in there.

Let me just put this into perspective. My son is 4 1/2 yrs old. In that time, hubby and I have been on 5 dates, and 4 of those were over night and since sept...lol. Even had the kids here on our 10th wedding anniversary. Hubby has been great to me today, keeping the kids outside to give me some time.
