You're right, none of that was even close to logical. :huh:Makes me laugh. Ex cancelled holiday contact in October because he was unwell. No other explanation other than the doctor had told him to keep away from our youngest. So what would he have done if we'd been living together?! (Move in with the girlfriend, obviously!!!!)
But your situation is very different from the OP's. If the doctor advised him not to have contact with young children, I'd say that was an explanation, what other explanation would you have expected? Perhaps he assumed that he would get it in the neck if he gave your youngest child some illness.The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0
