The Skids 13/14 are at mine and DH since last Thursday and as I said in previous notes they have not been out the front door in 6 days. There is a park on my doorstep but they wont venture out. Moaning they have pains in their legs from sitting around for a week. DH does not tell them to go out and maybe walk the dog - we are at work during the day and they are lying aroud bored. This is why I thought best they stay at their mums for this part of the holidays where they have friends and sports opportuinties. I think the partenting needs addressing in this scenario.

What do you think ladies?
Kids are on Summer Vacation for 6 weeks in July.

They are with their mother half the time of course.

But the other 3 weeks – she wants them to go to their Dads who lives about 1.5 hours away.

3 weeks at their Dads – but Dad is working for those 3 weeks.

Do you not think its better that they spend a week with their Dad.

The other 2 weeks will be spent at home so they can mix with their friends.

The BM is now imposing on DH and my weekend off fron the kids to keep them one night! Why would they need baby sitting they are 13 and 14 years of age. Don't you think they are better off at home instead of BF havng to drive one hour in the evening to pick them up and another hour the following morning to drop them home cause Retchid BM fanices a night out on her weekend with her Children. Sounds like control again to me! DH should tell her to Jog on But he is going to do it!
