Back story, been separated from DS Dad since September. He now lives a 40 minute drive away with his new partner (she seems lovely, the poor girl). He was EA when we were together and it took many talkings to from MNers for me to realise this.
Anyway he has DS from Friday 5pm until Saturday 5pm (usually he will ask me to collect DS early as he can't get him to nap ), I take DS over there and pick him up, send him with the things he needs (nappies, clothes, wipes, pram, baby moniter etc. apparantly he shouldn't provide these as that's what he pays maintenance for - £100 a bloody month) without so much a thanks or a fuck you. He has never once been and collected DS, or asked to see him on any other day apart from that once per week. He will never text/phone during the week to see how he is/what he's been doing, or if he can come over and see him (he knows I would never say no unless DS busy).
AIBU to feel absolutely infuriated when he plays the doting Dad, and tries to dictate to me how I raise DS and give 'helpful' parenting advice, such as 'don't take him to the doctors he will pick up germs' (when I mentioned DS's eczema was getting worse, and taking him back to the doctors to see if he could maybe try a different treatment), and 'youve forgotten to send over his bath emollient silly'. Oh sorry I must have forgotten to pack that whilst I was busy packing the other things DS needs because your sorry arse can't be bothered to provide them
I would never say this to him, because I cannot be bothered with the inevitable argument but by the life he fucks me off.
