I need my son!

[mistoffolees]

Then I doubt if you have to worry about your ex pulling anything.

[reboundmom]

Yes, he IS actually trying to pull something! He claims I arrived 35 mins late to p/u dd on 2 occasions...funny, cuz dd and I call her grandma every time I p/u without a witness. Never been over 15 mins late and I'm usually early.

If it were true, I would have to forego mid-week parenting time....he's pulled amazingly dishonest stuff and gotten away it it before, so he's obviously gotten overconfident.

How lame! Now I have my handy, dandy digital camera w/date & time stamp to refute any of his false claims re: timeliness.


OOPS! Sorry, I just noticed I'm going on and on here in the "Father's Issues" forum. DOn't mean to offend.......
