My kids dad barely sees them. He hasn’t seen them for years then night before their birthday he asked to see them on one of their birthday (birthdays are close together ).
im not best pleased as he doesn’t bother the rest of the year. I tell him we will be in the pub at tea time and to come and buy his kids a birthday drink. Kids are young adults. He says he can’t be there till 8 as he has to pick up keys.
so fast forward till 6pm and I message him to see if he’s coming he says no. A load of excuses. So we leave. We get home at. 7.30.
7.45 and he posts birthday cards through the letterbox. I found this sneaky as he thought we’re still in pub. His excuse is he couldn’t be in the pub cos he was posting the kids birthday cards .
surely you would pick up keys and then meet at the pub and bring the cards to them instead he’s used it as an excuse. He said he can meet the next night but kids aren’t interested. It’s a long line of been let down. Yes there adults. One is vulnerable adult.
he has another child and gf.
AIBU to be annoyed by this.
