CF part two. Voldemutt and the philosopher's bone

[Purplewishes]

Can't actually believe this has needed a second thread.

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/4331756-CF-DSD-DSDs-mum-and-dog

For any new stragglers jumping on for the ride I will try and summerise.
DSD has a dog at her mum's. Dog pisses and shits on the floor.
I'm up to my tits with my own kids with a toddler and newborn twins.
DH ex asked me to walk dog, I said absolutely fucking not.
Been lies and twisted truths about who's looking after dog.
DHs ex has fucked off on holiday anyway.
dSD has taken responsibility for walking dog but need DH to ferry her back and forward
Dog has now been renamed as voldemutt
DH has been told if voldemutt crosses the door he will be drop kicked out the door.
Once again to reiterate I'm having fuck all to do with voldemutt and plan to just sit back and watch the drama unfold (while drinking wine)

So where did we leave off?
DH took DSD at half 5 to her house to walk the dog before school no problem. The plan we were told was that a nice caring neighbour was going to walk voldemutt while DSD at school.

I was out with twins today with a friend with the buggys and we went a scenic route (this was about half 11) and who do I see walking voldemutt??????? DSD.

DSD should be at school (were in Scotland) so I'm guessing that DSD has dogged school in order to be there to walk voldemutt and there was never a neighbour involved. Now DSD didn't see me and I haven't mentioned it to her or to DH yet but I have full intentions of asking her how her day at school was when she gets home and then firing a million detailed questions about her day to see at what point she admits she was not at school.

I'm with you on the vaccinations LemonSwan.

As much as I hate that the CF has gotten away with this, I'm glad the dog isn't on his own after all.

Fair play to your DSD for fessing up to her dad.
She really has been put in a difficult situation by her mum, and I think your decision that she shouldn't be punished for transgressions encouraged by her mum is fair.

I think the point @wishihadanalgorithm and others were making about making school aware is about keeping them in the loop of dsd's home situation. Clearly if she is bunking off with her mothers permission - whatever the reason - school need to know to be able to support dsd.

You, your DSD and your MIL can all hold your heads up high. You have handled this firmly and sensibly. I think you have things the right way round in your household. You have taught your DSD to be honest with you and shown her that if she is, everything else can be worked out. Her mother, on the other hand has lied and worse, actively encouraged her own dd to be less than honest.

The ex has just got this all wrong. But then she lives in a house full of dog sh*t and lies - I guess life has a way of biting you on the bum, doesn't it?

Wish I could add a clever Harry Potter pun, but I'm not that clever!

Wait does this mean that now you won’t have a free house to stare at the ceiling for an hour and a half tomorrow?

Such a shame for your DSD and the wee dog...

the woman is a shameful witch who cared about nobody but her weekend away 🌸

But of course

@EmoIsntDead - even within LAs there are different school hours Glasgow leaves it up to the individually schools to decide - along as they get in the required number of hours over the school week.

Ds' old secondary has 3 long days and 2 short days and finished at 14.50 on a Friday (one of the "short" days)

Also really relieved the wee dog isn't going to be alone but imagine it's quite galling because exW "won" in that her CFery paid off and she hasn't been inconvenienced in any way.

What could the school do about it if OP and her H spoke to them about it? Genuinely curious and not trying to be goady - tone is so hard via text!

...to the individual schools bloody autocarrot

@messybun101 MIL had agreed to have voldemutt before she found out about ex lying. But I think DH couldn't be arsed with the ferrying back and forward over the weekend so spoke to his mum who agreed to have voldemutt.

We spoke to DSD, in her eyes, she's not done anything wrong as it was all above board with her mum. I mean technically she's not wrong but knows she should have went to school but didn't want to leave voldemutt.

No reply from ex which doesn't suprise me. I don't think she will reply tbh, least not until she's home. Prob too busy drinking butterbeer and snorting fizzing whizzbees. (Joke before the death eaters jump down my throat)

Tomorrow DH plans to take DSD and toddler and voldemutt out for the afternoon, so I will chill with the twins eating Bertie Botts every changing flavour beans and watching some Quidditch.

So.. the Ex really didn't care... She knew everyone else would sort this problem for her...

I'm genuinely shocked the Ex was that selfish and entitled that she made her daughter miss school rather than pay for dog care. Shocked.

What a message to send to your own child.

@littleowl153 DH did consider telling the school but ultimately the decision not to tell the school is his. I certainly won't be phoning them to tell them.
Apparently classes she missed were ONLY English and PE and social development.... Not like she missed a defence against the dark arts class

I think that even without fines, the school should know how ex planned for DSD to be absent from school, left alone in her home without you and her dad knowing she was there.

Ex has shown her true colours here, she is selfish, manipulative and cares more about her own fun and shenanigans than her daughter or dog. What a poor specimen of a human being she is.

Just catching up- OP you are hilarious enjoy tomorrow 😂

@Purplewishes have to say I like the truth only deal, we have something similar. If you tell the truth, no consequences will come forwards. Thank god DSD has you in her life too!

I agree... yes She's lucky to have you 🌸

So the ex did all this shenaigans just so she could get her Goblet of Fire filled?

I’m aware. I’m not the one generalising.

@wishihadanalgorithm she's clearly a dementor.

@bostonbullsmumma

Anyway muggles, I think that near enough brings us to the end of the tale of voldemutt and the philosopher's bone.
Thank you for all the laughs along the way, no way did I think I would have as many responses and two threads

I have only one other thing to add for all the haters..... Avada Kedavra.

@BruceAndNosh

Shes getting some "order of the penis" 🤣

I'd have to do something really immature and turn all the lights on at the ex's house, every single one, and leave them on for the whole weekend.

Please can you send supermum a link to both threads here 😜

Give her something to do on her weekend away 🤣
