Please can someone give me some perspective on this? I am upset but not sure if it is just me being to sensitive.....
DS's Dad and I split up in March. Ex used to drop DS at nursery and collect him (as it saved on fees as DS was in for shorter sessions). When we split up the agreement was that Ex would continue to pick up DS (at 3.30) and that he would look after him on his two days off (wed and thurs).
However, within a few weeks Ex had already not turned up to collect DS three times on his days off so I had to put DS into nursery.
Ex is now collecting DS at 3.30 on MOnday and Tues and at 11.45 on Wed and Thurs - I pay for the nursery so am pretty fed up to be paying while Ex is in bed!
Ex called on thursday to say he was going to be late to collect DS so could I phone the nursery (of course he doesn;t have their number and I'm not busy at work so no problem).
When I called the nursery they told me taht Ex was always late to collect DS and that I sould extend his sessions to 3.45 and to 12.
I am very pissed off at this. No one said anything to Ex, they tell me and expect me to sort it out.
I explained that extending DS's session would not help as EX would still be 15 mins late.
Despite me having explained the situation clearly to the nursery manager with regard to Ex's days off she seemed to think he was being held up at work
Am I being to sensitive about this? It makes me feel quite angry that the nursery only speak to me about problems - even when the issue is purely Ex's fault. Surely they should have addressed the issue of Ex being late with him. The manager was going on about how his lateness was cuasing staffing problems for her as she ended up with too many children for the ratios as Ex was late.
I just don;t understand why she waited five months then brought it up with me.
So basically Ex was swanning in with his "superdaddy" act and they were all smiles with him then give me a hard time.
