We have the same problem. BM signs SDs up for soccer and expects us to take them 25 miles for 3 hours on Saturdays. Our attorney sent a letter telling her we wouldn't be taking them since she did not consult us, but then she makes up conversations that she and DH had about her keeping them until after the games. DH has no recollection of said conversations but gives in. It drives me crazy. The girls feel "guilty for letting their teams down" when we don't take them. If that's not a coached statement from an 8 yo, I don't know what is. The little one (8) is dying for ballet lessons which could be given on the days we don't have her (we have a 30/70), but her BM tells her there's no money for that. We'll come up against this again in the fall, I'm sure.
