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.

She’s too busy practising her wand skills @Hertsgirl10

Op you are amazing .... hope you have a nice day tomorrow... excellent thread this !

@Sunbird24 🤣🤣🤣 I dunno anything about Harry Potter, so dunno if I mentioned a wizard’s sleeve would it make any difference but hey ho Iv mentioned it Anyway 😆 😝

Shes getting some "order of the penis"

Comedy gold 🤣🤣

Wow!! Hope the ex is grateful that nothing happened at school today! Not doing a MN thing...but I've had to pick my children up from an evacuated school ( "prankish" call) KNOW BODY KNEW WHERE HER CHILD WAS!!!!

🤣🤣 at your last update!!
Aw, enjoy your afternoon tomorrow op you bloody deserve it for keeping the cool on this one. Sorry it's not totally bairn free but at least there's no dog shit on the fooor so you can lie and look at your ceiling

I think you OP & your DH & MIL have dealt with the situation the lying conniving ex left behind really well.

The ex is truly stupid if she’s ruined a clearly very amicable relationship between you and her just to get her leg over. Hope it was worth it for her.

Handled really well. Despite what the stepmother haters would like to pretend, you sound like a lovely person.

Shel be Slytherin into bed tonight to do some parsleTOUNGING of her own 🤣

@hertsgirl10 wizards sleeve 🤣

I've only just caught up and I can't believe how this has gone down!

I’m not really into Harry Potter these puns have really added to this tale 😂

@Wishihadanalgorithm

Your DH could contact the school and explain why DSD wasn’t in school today. It would be just desserts if ex faced a fine from the school for taking DSD out without a good reason.

Excellent plan! I'd bloody do it as well.

The mother is clearly a feckless twat who shouldn't be trusted with a goldfish, never mind a dog and a teenage child.

Ah I’m howling 🤣

[Grin] Thankyou for this x

The worst bit is I suspect ex has told dsd to lie to you and her dad and pretend she is getting the bus to school! That is definitely not on! If that was the arrangement she wanted to make she should have at least told your husband she had given dsd permission to stay off school not encouraged her to lie to you! Like you lies are a big no in our house

: ) failed at hehehehe!! You have been very amusing x

Poordsd what an awful mother she has making her bunk off and lie

some people just dont give a shit as long as they get their own way

I'd said on your first thread to plan for when the ex just went and left the dog, but to protect your dad in the process. As said that isn't happening. You'd said in the first thread that you had to take over communication with the ex because your DH and his ex were emotionally damaging your DSD with their behaviour. On that basis I don't think you should be asking her if she went to school. You should be her backup. She's being emotionally damaged once again. She isn't old enough to make decisions in this scenario. As said al she wants is her dog looked after. She's having to step up because it's something else that her Mum has let her down on. You should be discussing this, before she's developed full blown FOG. Not punishing her. Think about her mental health as she goes into teenagehood.

I've only read the @Purplewishes posts on this thread but thanks for all the humour OP... love all the references!!

Not only her MH but her self worth as well. This girl hasn't had a mother or father who's done anything to build those up, or put her first.

@2mutsandsomebabies okay. I'm going to bite. Please enlighten me to how her mental health has been damaged? At her own admission she was happy to stay off when ex suggested it. She was not forced into it in any way, not told to lie to us, nor is she upset with the situation with voldemutt being at MILs
Absolutely no parent is angry with her, no punishment had been passed, there's been no raised voices, no shouting, No1 laughing at her and we're currently lying eating shite watching mean girls on TV.

Are we not allowed to have a bit of a joke about the situation and drop some Harry potter puns and make light out if it all? Like why does it have to be so serious? No1 was harmed in this tale. Even voldemutt is happy at MILs. Lighten up.

@ponoka7 her self worth. Really?

@Ponoka7

Posted too soon. Should have said @Ponoka7 at least read the ops posts. Dsd is not being punished at all because the arrangement was made by her mother and she did not lie either to her father or to the op

@ponoka7 If you don't mind going back and quoting the exact point I said anyone was emotionally damaging DSD that would be great thanks.
