My ex partner just called our child a dog. My son and I went to ex p's house and my son (9) was right by me the whole time, basically my shadow. When i left to go to the bathroom my son went to play in the garden, my ex then proceeded to ask, what's wrong with your little dog. I said don't call him that! Who calls their child a dog? And he responded well that what he is, he's acting like one. I just went off at him and said that is so degrading calling your child a dog. (Thankfully ds didnt hear any of this) I called my son and we left. He think's (ex dp) that it was just a description of his behaviour but I don't think it's acceptable to call your child a dog. Just want people's opinions on if I over reacted?
