@memrin I have daily court ordered FaceTime with my youngest at a specific time. Our judge was very much for these calls to take place. It's mean spirited to intentionally intervene in the calls, if I know I'm going to be super busy during that where kiddo will be extremely distracted, I offer...

@october12 I'll use my youngest's dad for that since youngest is also a toddler and my older kids do not care about participating in mother's/father's day. No, I would absolutely not do anything in return for him. I handed off the things our child made at daycare for father's day but that is as...

@october12 My ex husband has never done anything for me on mother's day after we split up, what his wife does is independent of him. I am friends with my ex husband's wife, talk to her daily etc. His ex does not have to reciprocate, doing something for someone with the expectation they will do...

@albert123 My 4yo has pretty severe ADHD and loves screen time. He's off the charts smart and will always choose going outside to play/going to the park but his calm down/self regulating time is usually watching TV. We use an iPad when we're out, mostly when I know he's going to have to be...

@tokkite Yes you're being petty, your ex does not owe you anything on father's day. I don't do anything for my ex's on father's day. They don't do anything for me on mother's day, my ex husband's wife does so I get her a card/flowers.

@vescd If she's offended because she is told that she doesn't get to dictate how your child is parented then idk how great of a relationship that is.

@megz088 I don't think it's too much, it makes sense if you have a selfish co-parent that wants to take all holidays. Birthday is always a point of contention with us because kiddo and I share a birthday and ex demands to see kiddo every year and complains that I want more time BECAUSE WE...

@vescd I would tell my ex's gf to kick rocks if she tried telling me not to take my kiddo to Disney for their birthday. Your new partner should not be controlling how everyone parents the child.

@vescd It's not your girlfriend's business if your ex takes your kid to Disney. Behavioral issues should be addressed by a professional, not by withholding birthday presents.

@jd14234 No. I don't play this game of clothing. Kids are always sent in appropriate clothing, I'm not keeping tracking of every item. My ex would get mad about socks, absolutely not. My ex never even purchased any of our kiddo's clothing whole we were together so I'm assuming they were not...
