STEP-MOM

How can I begin with this?
My husband and I met March 2008 and married in April 2009. I did not meet my step-son till December 2008 as my husband was protecting his son. His son and I hit it off. I end up meeting his ex-wife (mother of my step-son) and problems began since. Make this story short - she can't stand me - wants my husband back after cheating on him 7x and now that he is happy and finally moved on with his life, she has made it a plan to make our lives a living hell and using their son to her advantage.

She has placed, order of protection against my husband (which was dropped) because she had no proff and she LIED! When she filed for divorce in July 2005, they were still together and she was told him she would not go thru with the divorce - but she did. So on the decree - she ordered $1,200 in spousal alimony, $450 in child support, SOLE CUSTODY for her and allowing him to see their son on Saturdays/Sundays from 12-3pm ONLY!
Since he did not show up in court (because in his mind and from her, she told him, she had dropped the case) and lets not forget that they were still back together - she was granted EVERYTHING she put on the decree. Well now, it has come and bite him, and because she cannot move on with her life, she is making it very difficult for him to even see their son on weekends. She took him back to court for more child support money and he responded w/more parenting time (which is still pending court hearing in Oct) but Child Support did go up to $750 since he only sees him 6hrs a week!

I started a GREAT job in July and placed my whole family under my insurance. My husband cancelled his since his insurance is crappy and mine offers better coverage...etc.... She threw a fit and REFUSES to use my insurance because it's ME - so now she went and placed him on Public Assistance-Acchess.

So now, we are unsure on the court will see this. We didn't do it with bad intenstions...just better coverage...
