To be completely pissed off with my ex for letting my ds & his rugby team down?

[FrankAwenstein]

Ds had his major rugby tournament today and his dad having promised to take him and never did because it was raining. THis meant 10 other boys couldnt play as they didnt have a full squad. Ds is geniunely upset by this. I am going to have to call the managers and explain but am very and

No YANBU. Was the rain his only excuse?

Why can't he bleedin' well call them. It's his fault.

he should call and apologise directly to his son and the manager......otherwise he never has to face up to what he has done.....why should you smooth things over?

so not unreasonable. Sad for the 10 boys for and sad for your son knowing his dad has done that. Is he usually so unreliable?

I have called and spoken to both managers now, both u7 & u8. Thankfully none of the kids missed out on playing. Ds's manager actually said that he had noticed ds's dad had sat apart from everyone else the only time he attended. Said that other parents (himself included) tried to include but he was very solitary.

Both managers were really understanding. I am so darn annoyed for ds tho as he would have a whale of a time sliding around in mud. Every 7 years olds dream!

Peaches - unfortunately he was this unreliable last season. He seemed enthuisiatic for ds this year tho and was seeming to be really reasonable about things surrounding ds (actually said as mum to my parents on Friday night, eating my words now!).

Oh how very

Maybe you could go along instead? At our club the U7 and U8 parents are very, very friendly and it is a 50-50 split between mothers and fathers.

but so that your ex isn't there for him....

I do take ds on weekends he isnt with his dad. Thankfully he has the next 3 sundays with me so wont miss those. I called because I enrolled ds to the club, paid fees etc. There was no way his dad would call and also altho is totally his dads fault I dont want ds to be penalised for having a PIA dad.
