    Mine were at dads all weekend and have come home thinking they can do as they please too!! Nightmare isn't it?!

    Cheeky swine said the children were filthy, like they had never had a bath.. they were bathed the night before they went!!! Like they are not meant to get dirty .. they are children after all and I fully encourage playing in mud lol In fact he is being a total 'very rude word beginning with C'

    hope things are settling down for you though.. I think they are getting worse between us.. and it sure as heck isn't my doing! Though it is a nice reminder why he is no longer living here every time I see him.. :D
