  • I'd say how's about a big fat NO! Sorry but I've been in your situation and kept my kids well away from my ex. Best thing I could have done, but that another story. Stay strong and don't play his games :)

    Its different strokes for different folks though hun...... it may have been for the best in your situation but maybe not in Caz's..

    Please - no matter how much you hate your ex - dont let your kids suffer for it.. unless its unhealthy/unsafe etc...

    Ooops! I've always thought you were a female! Sorry!

    So did I.

    Can I ask anyone still up for a big hug, I was moaning about my knee earlier today, tonight I fell over in the Harvester Car Park, I'm not sure how but 6 lads ran to pick me up & there is now a big dent in the carpark :(

    *hugs* make sure you rest it up! Hope it isnt too bad hun x

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)
  • Just read your last post Caz.

    Suppose in a way, its good that the kids are so young that they dont understand fully yet... they will make up their own mind when they are old enough... he does sound like a scumbag tbh - and so do his parents.....

    what i would do is make up an excuse - well, its not really an excuse - just say that they are poorly so you are not happy with them going out visiting atm - But, hopefully when they are feeling better...... and just leave it at thet....

    That way - you dont look like 'the bad person' - (even though you arent!!)

    if you need a chat - you know where i am. x

    My kids are better off not seeing it as it is both unhealthy and unsafe for them to see it. I'm not a nasty person in any way shape or form but will protect my kids no matter what, as we all would and he is what they need protecting from.

    I've texted him to say I'll see how DS is but there's a contact order in place at his request. I didn't say yes, I didn't say no but the lack of response suggests he isn't amused.
