My ex's petty lies are now affecting Ds1

[colditz]

ds1 KNOWS whether or not he has been given his inhalers that morning - most of the time. His concentration isn't good, and sometimes he can't remember.

But he always says if he can't remember.

When I picked them up this morning from their dad's, I asked if he had had his inhalers. he was adamant that he hadn't. the ex was adamant that he had.

So I nipped of to use the loo, and sent ds1 back to his dad to ask for his inhalers.

his dad gave him his inhalers.

So when I went back, i asked if he 9the ex) had given ds1 two doses of his inhalers today. He said he hadn't - so I pointed out that if he was telling the truth now, he must have been lying earlier.

Anyway, after more of this MOTHEREFFING CIRCULAR ARGUING - we established that all the time the ex stood there this morning telling me that Ds1 wasn't telling the truth, that he HAD had his inhaler - he was lying.

Ladies (AND GENTS? what can I do about this?

.

...

IS there anything I can do about this?

my seven year old son was falsely accused of lying (or so it was implied) by his dad, and because of his scatty ADHD ways I actually doubted him - I thought he had forgotten.

Hiya, no experience sorry but didn't want to see your plea unanswered! Maybe a wee notepad/pencil by the inhalers and your DS to tick off each time he takes them? Hope it all works out.

he won't remeber/will lose the paper/pencil, or wil not rmember if he has taken them or not...

I MIGHT send a wall chart though, so thank you for that idea, because his little brother (4 yo) loves wall charts and will insist that it is filled in.

Do you know, I'm sick of this. he needs to be a an adult.
