My girls are with their dad for his half of half term. Have just received email pics to show that DD2 (8) has had her ears pierced.
I have no problem with her having them done. None at all. She asked me a few weeks ago, when her dad was out of the country for 4 weeks and I said I was fine for her to have them done, but was something I would talk to daddy about. I confess it had slipped my mind, but he only got back last week, and then the girls were away with my parents.
When DD1 (10) had hers done last year I discussed with him and he came with us for her to have it done.
I went with my mum to have mine done when I was 7 and its one of the few memories I have of us doing something together, just the two of us. So I guess I have it down as a mum thing.
I wanted to be with her when she had it done
Also I wanted to hold off a bit as she is going to have her tonsils out fairly soon and I know the earrings will have to come out for that.
And I wanted to be there.
Am I being unreasonable to mention that he really should have discussed it with me? We don't have the best relationship at the moment. the divorce is going through and he really doesn't want to give me any of his money.
