i wanted to go camping for a night and couldnt find the tent pegs. while ringing my gal i ask if she knew where they were, she asked her dad if she could come. drop off time that i was told was between 12 and 3pm (i heard her ask for these later times). this is the day after camping

Original email
You dropped child off to work this morning, isnt this your easter and your contact time? Can you explain to me what is going on?



reply email
Yes She wanted to go back over to your place for a couple of days and as always I agreed. Yes it was my Easter but you as always manipulate everything and rang her the other day to go camping with you as I remember it. That was when you told her she would be home around 9.00am yesterday and you never showed until 2.30pm. Thanks a heap as I did not know if she had an accident or not. I was very, very concerned for we saw a car and van that was involved in an accident when we went somewhere on Friday. You probably don't even understand what it is to worry about someone else except unless its you. But that is your normal thing as you do not know how to think of other people except you. Quite honestly I have had a guts full of your mind games bullshit so do us all a favour and just enjoy child and give it all a rest. She is going to give me a call when she wants to come back over. Don't bother to answer this email unless you have something possitive to add, as I will not answer your bullshit.

this is a mild one

Heya, its a difficult road isnt it.

It seems to me, from his response, that he requires a certain level of communication (his issue not yours). Personally I would email/text him an outline everytime.

'as discussed, I will collect ..... at .... am, because we are returning from .... and I may be delayed by traffic, I will return her to your work between 12 and 3 on the .....'

This way he cannot say that he was not informed, he cannot say that he did not agree, and he cannot attempt to emotionally blackmail you further without looking like the inept, controlling tosser he clearly is. I ALWAYS communicate with the ex in a written format (keeps a record for future) when things were really bad, I had to send it registered because he'd claim that we hadnt spoken, he hadnt received the letter.

It gets easier D , sadley when one partner is immature the games can go on on on & on maybe try mediation get some parenting orders inplace most family relationship centres hold free mediation might be worth investigating for your peace as well as the kids

I think kids should enjoy the love of both parents without excessive demands placed upon them and feel proud of both parents and to be able to respect them ..Most of all see their parents behave towards each other with at least minimal courtesy, consideration and respect,although this does not always seems to be the case and the child suffers ..

But what would i know about parenting..
