    refuses to use Parent app

    @ybounasre Without a court ordered app, this advice can have negative consequences. My ex tried to do that. Added it to the list why he lost placement time.

    refuses to use Parent app

    @fizzywig I'm not judging. The app doesn't make it less exhausting.

    refuses to use Parent app

    @fizzywig So is arguing. I prefer to be a good person as I sleep better at night. I can look my kids in the eye and say I did my best.

    refuses to use Parent app

    @fizzywig You can't force him to use the app. I did force email however. You can't control his word choices. You can control how you respond.

    refuses to use Parent app

    @fizzywig Email is better than text. You can set up a folder where all email from him goes so it doesn't even end up in your inbox. Thus reduces being bothered all day. Easier to print out for court if needed. Not following the court order is the issue. Mt ex and I follow it and rarely have...

    refuses to use Parent app

    @heavensvoice So forcing the app is doing the same as he is. Each of you wants to communicate a certain way. I compromised and said email only so nobody had to pay for anything.

    How do I survive living in an apartment with a 2.5 y/o

    @glall2u2 Everyone is a bit on edge right now. Is your neighbor working from home? Are they elderly? My parents now live in a first floor condo because they could no longer upkeep a private home and due to physical problems they cant live up a flight of stairs. So for those commenting that the...

    Ex is asking to change the kids schools after getting married/moving

    @akne I would refuse to have a face to face conversation. I would email her saying that you believe the current school is the right choice for the children and your reasons remain the same as last year when this was decided and that you will not change the school without a court order. End of...

    Ex is asking to change the kids schools after getting married/moving

    @akne My ex did the same thing, met and married someone within 8 months. eta: My kids also do not go to the same school as their stepsibling because she does virtual school. My ex wanted this to be the option with new wife supervising 100% of my kids schooling, that was a huge no from me. I...

    18 y/o freshmen in college wants to get apartment with his gf of 6 months

    @bishopjordan Seems like he may have an easy decision when he finds out they might not be able to afford it. Natural consequence.

    18 y/o freshmen in college wants to get apartment with his gf of 6 months

    @bishopjordan I wouldn't pay for his rent or cosign as finances for a lease. I will pay for dorms or individual lease but I'm not putting my money on the line for a lease that depends on someone not related to me.

    Are we being unreasonable?

    @saveoursoul You have every right to block his number for certain periods of the day and ask him to email you. You bringing Partner into this was totally unnecessary and makes you look like a pushover who can't make their own decisions. You are trying to deflect your ex being upset with you by...

    I need to know if I’m being unreasonable

    @agapeos1080 I wouldn't be upset. I'd ignore. I wouldn't make a big deal out of it and "set a boundary" by reiterating my rights as mom.

    I need to know if I’m being unreasonable

    @agapeos1080 A. It's up to your ex to declare what she can and can't do as far as discipline. Maybe they talked as a couple and she's just supporting his decisions. I personally didn't like my kids sleeping in my room either, they have their own. B. Yes I prefer to speak to my ex directly...

    Suggestions on 50/50 schedules. Dad purposely got fired to start a food business

    @stevish74 I think his schedule makes the most sense. Every other day is a ridiculous schedule. With dad's schedule you could reduce childcare costs. After custody and placement are decided, then you can determine child support. You can request that some of his past income be used to...

    I need to know if I’m being unreasonable

    @agapeos1080 Honestly, it's been years. They would have to make it through 3 other people before they got to gf on the call list. To me its not worth the battle. And not allowing partners on the pickup list after 3 years is controlling.

    I need to know if I’m being unreasonable

    @agapeos1080 Because each parent deserves a back up person that isn't their ex.
