I'm in a new relationship that started just after Christmas. Boyfriend moved here in March.
I want him to keep in contact with his kids, but I aibu to say that if his children are here, then he should be here as well.
His ex works three evenings a week, my BF works nights some weeks. She wants us to have them when she is at work, which is fine when he is home. If he's also at work, then I've insisted she finds someone else. I've got two kids of my own to sort out.
I also have said that on his weekends when he has them, he is here with them and not playing football. Or they don't come.
Things came to a head on Monday when I had taken my kids out, and boyfriend sent me a text asking me to go home as her childcare had fallen through. I told him to leave work and go home himself. When I returned an hour later I found her waiting outside for me. When she started getting the kids out of the car with their stuff, I went in and shut the door, and said if she drove off without them I'd call SS.
AIBU to insist I am not an unpaid childcarer when his ex goes to work?
