DSD lives with us full time.
Her mother consistently let's her down. Makes empty promises, swears she will be at plays, concerts, parties etc. She has failed to turn up to all. The last one I remember her being at DSD was 5. She is nearly 9 now.
DSD has recently started a new school as we have moved house.
We have to put her details on as mother as she is still in contact but DH has made it very clear that I am firat point of contact in emergency as I am at home and main carer. We had incident few years back when school called her, she didn't pick her up, didn't tell anyone, DH and I both worked an hour away from home at the time so DSD wasn't picked up for ages.
We have just found out that mum has been getting info texts from school she didn't tell us because 'they were just pointless annoying messages'.
We have dealt with the school now but it really annoys me that she wouldn't mention to us that she was getting them so that we could make sure WE got them!
The latest thing is, the other day I overheard mummy promising she would be picking up DSD from school next year. She has not discussed this with DH and has promised this many times before and never delivered.
I am just sooo angry and fed up with the whole thing. DH won't confront her so I'm in limbo.
In reality I know I can't do anything but would it BU to have even a gently word with her about please PLEASE not promising things she can't deliver on??
