Does mummy smack you?

[phonicphobic]

What would your reaction be if your 3 year old DS told you that this is what daddy had asked him?

I'm angry about it and it's part of a bigger picture as well with ex attempting to undermine and cast doubt on my parenting capability.

I've never smacked ds btw and there are no valid welfare concerns whatsoever.

Ignore....chill.....and more of the same. Ex may be trying to wind you up or even to cast doubt as you say, but it's crucial for DS not to be caught in the middle of this sort of stuff. I'd move on in the conversation with DS, maybe make a joke, certainly do not show any reaction. You might want to say something to the ex but that would be privately, IMHO

Thanks for reply. I was matter of fact about it with ds but am angry that ex questioning ds and stirring shit like this. Little point saying anything as it wont make blind bit of difference and will only create even more hassle.

Oh dear. This is a familiar scenario. Your ex needs to stop this. Interrogating the kids post separation is really bad and will spoil the contact for them.
I agree though don't get wound up about it as really I imagine this is what he is after
