To expect DH ex to check with him before making plans for their DS during his contact time?
We arranged to take kids swimming tomorrow then museum a 40 min- 1 hour drive away (whole day out) tomorrow and she has told him today DSS has a party tomorrow 12-5 without checking with DH. Now DH has cancelled our plans to take DSS to party!
I understand as she does schoolruns mostly she gets asked but surely she should say she'll check with dad as he has DSS then and DH should definately tell her about plans we have already made which means we can't stick to arrangements she has made.
She'd be furious if DH made commitments for DSS during her time and expect her to stick to them DH really should be telling her to check. She and her husband have done this a few times both during DH time and also asked DH to do extra trips in their time and we cancel plans. Last time this happened I missed taking DD to my parents for a family bday. Feels like we can't do anything. We only have one car so it's not like I can do things on my own (parents 5+ hours away).
It might sound small but these things add up and sick of his ex making plans that affect our lives and him just letting her!
