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

    @akne So find a 3rd option, have them go to the private school near you.. :D I get it alot easier said then done.. But assuming their other kids go to the school near you, this appears (offhand) to be less of having kids closer to one parent or the other. As her "new" kids go to the one near...

    Thoughts on my ex leaving our 5 year old at home while she goes to the bus stop for her other kids?

    @avimay So it depends on the distance.., etc.. but here's a suggestion.. I have a camera in my living room, and my youngest has a kindle tablet.. and a bowl of snacks.

If he is putting it into another account for college fund etc.. ie I have a pa529 account for each of my kids, my ex has the info as well. He should be able to give you a statement. And since it's "the kids money"...

    Is my ex being reasonable with her demands of meeting anyone I’d have around our kids before they’d meet them?

    @athena1312138 So here's my 2 cents.. When the kids are with you, your in charge. If you want to have them meet someone, do it. Trust your gut. And more then likely your ex is trying to be controlling. When my ex and I split, my statement to her was she should date someone 3-4 months...

    New baby announcement - hurt feelings

    @jambor So im going to say this and I'm a guy. More then likely he didn't intend to hurt your feelings. Alot of guys don't think about how a message will be taken by others if we do it's a quick 5 second thought. Or if we do, we try and craft it in a way to get the info across without saying...
