@gcooks33 So you’re saying people who don’t want to steal others kids exist and you’re one of them. That is my point exactly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@gcooks33 I have been a stepparent for many years. My opinion stands. No one is trying to steal someone’s kid on a first date. Well, let’s say 99% of the time that’s the case. What we see here are extreme versions of stories told from one side of the equation. Right, wrong, or indifferent, it’s...

@gcooks33 You have no idea what she’s even like. This is based on one comment relayed from her coparent. No one is out to steal peoples kids for sport. Everyone needs to learn to maybe not take one comment and run with it until it becomes some huge issue it never was to begin with. Also...

@harpazo56 First of all, he really overshared. It was an off the cuff comment you’ve taken as gospel and analyzed until it’s gotten you here. Take a breath, stop trying to figure out what it means. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter. You’ll always be your child’s mom. This is not how you want to...

@vanhiep240594 Yeah. Don’t worry about it. You’re assuming her intent and you could be right or wrong but ultimately it makes zero difference. I agree the kids CAN be with their mom whether or not she has taken time off and they’re home alone. So say no.

@vanhiep240594 It doesn’t matter why she asked. She asked. Either you can have them over or not have them over. If it’s coached what are you going to do anyway? Cause more friction by confronting over your suspicions? What will that help? You keep avoiding the very clear point many are...

@vanhiep240594 Then say no that she agreed to cover the 5 days and they don’t need childcare. If they do, it’s on her. Show her where she agreed and be done with it. You’re missing the part where it really is getting to where you don’t need coverage for no school days the way you would with...

@vanhiep240594 You have a 12 year old and a 15 year old. They’ll be fine at home alone for their break from school if mom or dad have to work. It doesn’t matter what your exes job is. It doesn’t matter what her husbands job is. It doesn’t matter that she lost her job at the start of COVID...

@vanhiep240594 Dude. You said you told your daughter you didn’t want to take time from mom. It’s in your post. Good that you clarified and said there was a schedule mix up. I’m saying over and over again the way your daughter asked isn’t important anymore. You’re not getting it. And I fully...

@vanhiep240594 Then. Say. No!!!!! What is your issue with just saying no. You lied and said you don’t want to take time from mom. That isn’t true. You have to work. Just say it was a schedule mixup and you have to work!!!! No. I’m not interested in why your ex asks. Just say no and move on if...

@vanhiep240594 Frankly, I looked at some of your comments and your repeated mention of your job is kind of off-putting. Most people have jobs. You’re describing a full time demanding job and I’m not sure why you think that is some big thing that most parents don’t also deal with. It isn’t your...
