Responsible Parenting: You're Doing It Wrong.

This is a rant. I understand that my ex and I have mutual friends, and that is ok. I am still going to rant. Most of you mutuals have heard this rant on Facebook, but I feel that more ranting should happen, so bear with me ( Read more... )

deadbeat, parenting

Thank you, for being so understanding. If this were an isolated incident, I might be able to blow it off, but this happens ALL THE TIME.

I have not said anything to him, yet. I was too angry. I like to be as calm as possible when I have an issue with someone. So it might even have to wait a day or two longer, and then I might send him a nice long message on FB. But yes, doesn't that just break your heart? Poor girl. :-(

I don't blame Katt. I like to surround myself with successful, positive people, because that is the direction I am aiming to go. So I totally get where he is coming from.

BIG HUG!!

Proud of you and the new surroundings and people you have. :) And I know you're just beginning!!! So amazing!

At least I know your kids have a great and caring mom...that will mean a lot as they grow up!

I wish people just made more sense and weren't so douchey.

I did not comment on FB... but I will here.

I am a mutual friend with both of you. And like with Darkersunshine, he has not done anything to truly cause me or mine harm. He has helped me out on one occasion as well.

That being said...

It is unfair to M. She deserves better, and she will remember things like this. It is frustrating for you.

No parent should put an event above a child, he should have taken her if he had wanted to go and it was his weekend for her.

But then this weekend to not even respond to you... to not even think that because he said he wasn't going to be there because of BW that he could just skip two weeks. No, that is not cool.

The fact also that something like this has occurred before, that he just decides that what he is doing is more important than spending time with his daughter... not cool.

Also I too have seen you grow tremendously. It makes me proud to say I knew you when. Keep up the strength. And...

Awesome Day Blessing.

*HUGS YOU BOTH* That is deplorable. Really.

I know it breaks my heart when my kiddo calls me from vacation where she's having a riot and says she misses me. I can't imagine how I would feel standing her up.

*BIG HUGS BACK* Thanks hon!

And he says I am partially in the right, but he doesn't owe her an apology. I think he just doesn't get it, and that's a shame. I tried, for her sake and actually in part, for his..because she is going to end up being really angry with him later on.
