We split a few months ago, we have 2 DSs 22 months and 13 weeks. At the moment he is living with a friend in a great big house..the kind with "grounds" rather than a garden.
He asked that I bring the boys to see him yesterday as opposed to the usual round mine. He thought DS1 would like to run around outside there. I voiced concerns that if we were to be inside at all there are big enthusiastic dogs that aren't used to kids, MANY breakable things and stone floors, there have to be fires on to keep it warm this time of year, owner is a 50 yr old bachelor so just unchild-friendly in every way. Ex said he would be in charge of DS1 and not to worry.
Needless to say, they ended up inside. DS2 is feeding for England at the mo so I asked again that he keep a close eye. In 45 minutes I found DS1 with hands in toilet and no daddy in sight, heard a crash and bottle of gin all over floor...again no daddy, add to that gouged by hedge when he ran out the door(he didn't think he knew about doorknobs...) and pouring juice on antique carpet. Which is when I just took them home.
If this is how lax he is at someone else's home the boys dont stand a chance when he gets his own place. I know he needs to learn that toddlers need watching, but this isn't the first time.
