OH ex has posted a photo on FB of them camping this weekend.

It was cold and rainy and there was quite a few of them and all their kids with the camp fire INSIDE THE FUCKING TENT Ffs.

With a caption almost saying we know this was really dangerous but we were cold Angry

YANBU - I'd be using that as evidence to stop them spending time with him any more to be honest.

What a total bloody fool he is!

Incredibly, incredibly stupid thing to do. Clutching at straws - could it be a wind up? Photoshopped or something?

ChicRock · 02/05/2016 22:29

Monumentally stupid, not sure I'd leave my child with someone that fucking thick again.

prettywhiteguitar · 02/05/2016 22:29

How on earth is that even possible ?

Cutecat78 · 02/05/2016 22:29

It's my OH ex - the kids mum!!!

I'd still be using it as evidence to stop the kids spending time with her. I bet they were drunk too, on top of it.

Your kids were in the tent?

Cutecat78 · 02/05/2016 22:33

Probably Sad

I am a seasoned camper and wouldn't even put a dead disposable BBQ anywhere near the tent for fear of CM poisoning - never mind a fucking great fire IN the tent.

My step kids.

I'm sorry, but how is that even possible?

Pipbin · 02/05/2016 22:35

A fire, in a tent?
There are so many reasons that make that a dreadful idea.

Cutecat78 · 02/05/2016 22:37

It looks like a bucket type BBQ with the griddle off the top.

Holy crap, OP, that's so dangerous. BBC story about (adult) woman who died after a couple took a barbecue inside their tent.

There's no excuse at all for this level of idiocy. (And yes, it was damn cold in a tent this weekend - I took DS camping... but I looked at the weather forecast, and we took extra blankets and clothes knowing it would be cold).

Cutecat78 · 02/05/2016 22:47

There was massive flames in the photo.
