Covid and ex...

[kelseypops]

DS tested positive for covid a couple of days ago. I informed his dad who lives 120 miles away straight away to make him aware.

He has been in touch since to see how DS is. Is this crappy behaviour?

Of course it is.
How old is ds and how often does he see or speak to him?
I wouldn’t bother with any more communication or happy Xmas messages
Or anything.
You wouldn’t treat your son like that so don’t allow that treatment from your ex.

I struggle to understand if his begs is bad or not.

DS is 12, he has autism and also asthma - haven't been able to get him vaccinated due to DS refusal so him catching covid has worried me as he is classed as vulnerable.

Thankfully I think he's over the worst and he's ok.

He sees his dad every other weekend but since late October it's been every other Sunday due to his work commitments

I knew ex would go quiet - he will use covid as an excuse not to see the ds. He's done it many times already.

Behaviour that should say - not begs!

He sounds like a bit of a twat!!

Of course it's not ok that he hasn't asked how he is. Or made an effort to FaceTime etc

But he is what he is, if he was fabulous, you'd probably still be together!!

What did/do you have planned for Christmas?

I hope he’s feeling ok and he’s not too upset about not hearing from dad.
Well it’s good he’s caught it now and doing ok, his immune system will be stronger for it. He will have the anti bodies so I wouldn’t worry about pushing a vaccine if he’s refusing.
It’s a worrying time but Xmas will be a good distraction for him and I’m sure he will have a nice time despite feeling poorly.

DS is supposed to be going to see him on Boxing Day, that's the usual routine.

With the 7 day isolation now in place, DS would still be able to go on Boxing Day providing he was negative on lateral flow tests.

Ex more than likely won't have that and say it's still too dangerous etc.
