I literally called the police. They said to mind my own business. He doesn't live there so there isn't anything to.do.

@jham123 Gotta let it go as long as she is good to your child. My ex is living with someone I used to be friends with and who got her kid taken by cps (and whose parenting in general I always disagreed with AND whose dad is a sex offender who comes to the house to pick her up) but I have to try...

@guitarguy8424 To know if they have sex offenses? Recent drug offenses? I have an old dui and had a judge rule that I couldn't drive my former stepkids as passengers. Had to go back to court and get that injunction removed. And no, my dui did not involve kids. I was a 23 yr old college kid...

@laidback I'm not making assumptions. I care to know so I look, sounds like you dont care to look and thats fine. But its not uncommon to look people up nowadays. I also have an untrustworthy and immature coparent so I never know who he brings around. I would prefer to know. I also don't care...

@laidback I mean I kind of think it's weird that you don't care about that kind of thing but to each their own

@laidback Every single person I know who shares kids with someone else has done a criminal history search on new partners. I know way too many people with surprising criminal histories and I just want to know if there are any sex offenses or recent drug history. And as I said in a different...

@guitarguy8424 It's totally normal to look up the criminal history of people your coparent brings around.

@tonyflake2 I don't remember her recommending time outs. She asked me about my discipline style and one minute per age is what she recommended if time out is being used. She also coached me in positive parenting techniques so basically everything you wrote above. Probably that is why I don't use...

@tonyflake2 She was a pretty decent therapist. I don't know that you can make a generalization about her whole career.

@tonyflake2 Idk, my child goes through the school district and they do time outs, but I'm not a child specialist, i only work with adults. I do know that 1 minute per year of age is what my childs play therapist suggested in terms of time outs. I know when I give my own child time out I do it...

@agapeos1080 Yeah that's a big issue. I divorced a guy like that. He had me, then a childless single person, dealing with his very damaged toddlers severe tantrums. I made a ton of mistakes that I didn't make on my own daughter and resented my ex for making me do the discipline with his...

@agapeos1080 Also time outs don't always equal leaving a child alone to deal with an emotion. but it's a parenting preference regardless of how it is implemented and i would choose my battles concerning that personally

@agapeos1080 I don't think they would call her before you. Even if her name is listed first, I actually think they have a legal responsibility to call the custodial parent first because the step parent, even if she is on the pickup list, doesn't have rights to educational info. They know who the...

@agapeos1080 You're being petty about almost all of this.... time outs are not the worst thing in the world... that's what your child will get as punishment in pre school. 1 minute for each year of age. Anyway, ignore all of it. Relax about it. Let her be on the pick up list if it makes her...

@saveoursoul I use our family wizard and it's 100 a year. We are also court ordered to only call each other in the case of an emergency. Free aps are talking parents and appclose

@jordanw123 Yeah but there isn't any legal recourse and it sounds like you're not getting info from the ex.

@jordanw123 If they made the contributions they can take whatever money they want. You should really close the joint account and each make separate investments for your child. ETA even if they did not make the contributions but their name is on the account they can still take the money.

@saveoursoul Not your partners decision. There isn't anything here that it seems like court would solve. Put your phone on silent or use a coparenting app.
