    Wow........I pity any ex husband of yours.;)


    You needn't - he moved overseas to avoid paying any child maintenance and my children haven't seen him in four years.

    I would love it if he and my ex inlaws wanted to see my kids, actually but I would be very precise about what time they'd be coming back!

    My second husband has a hell of a time with his ex-wife over access to his own kids which is irritating but I still believe that she, as the mother of his children and as a single parent, has the ultimate say over where they are and where they sleep. Even if that winds me up, it's her call. End of.

    Exactly, your views are blinkered.;)


    Is everyone who disagrees with you 'blinkered' then? I rather suspect so.

    I'd move abroad too if I was married to you.;)

    Give him my respect.:p

    Well, that was just the childish response of someone who cannot think of a logical debate.

    Sam i think you are right to be annoyed.
    My Mum used to take my DS out for the day, she was given rough time to have him back for. she never was.
    It irritated me no end.
    You are his parent. You have organised work shifts round this holiday. You should decide when he comes home.
    Do they know you have organised your shift times round this?
    If they do then THEY are ones being selfish.
    I would also have reservations about letting him go again too

    In your case, I'd be annoyed too if it was a regular occurrence. But that's a bit different to a one off holiday maybe?
