To think some women make it hard for men to see their children out of spite?!

I will say straight away I have a child, I am separated from their dad and as long as he see’s our child, child is happy and he pays child support I couldn’t give a monkeys what he does in his spare time, who he is with etc.

In contrast my DP’s ex CONSTANTLY, has an issue. Constantly has a negative comment to make about me, DP, our life, car, home, dog, whatever it is. It’s been awful for 4 years now. DP has always paid child support, see’s his DC when he is meant to, they have everything they need with us. She has manipulated them (one is only 7 bless her) in to saying horrible comments to me and my DC.2 years ago they went to court (after mediation failed because she just kept frustrating the process) and today she has announced DC are traumatised by seeing us ‘too much’ so she will be taking DP back to court for less contact. Ridiculous.

I cannot understand why some women cannot let go of the father of their children? What gives them the right to constantly interfere?

Please give me some insight and tips to make this stop!

We genuinely thought the court order of contact 2 nights one week, 3 the other (down from the original 50/50) would put a stop to this but it hasn’t and we don’t have the energy to keep arguing with her so have chopped and changed a lot of the past few years.
