Once bioparents divorce and remarry (or cohabitate, whatever the case may be), in your opinion, should they be co-parenting together and steps stay out of it, or should each parent start parenting ALL kids with their new spouse and parallel parent with BM and her SO?

So apparently BM called last Tuesday asking if we could help pay the medical bills for SS12 for breaking his fingers...and DH didn't tell me she called. I saw it on the phone bill. It was only a 2 min convo so I asked why she called and why he didn't tell me. He says cause I'll just get mad. Moron. He told her no he couldn't help and if she didn't like the bills she should have kept Tricare prime (no copays or out of pocket costs) and driven to the right doctor instead of switching to tricare standard (closer doctors but its a cost sharing plan).

These survey questions from Men's Health is part of one of my classes, and I thought I'd share some of it with ya'll...

What is the number one reason you and your wife split up?

▪ She was unfaithful 22%

▪ We grew apart 21%

▪ We fell out of love 16%
▪ We argued constantly 13%
▪ No longer sexually attracted 5%
▪ I was unfaithful 3%
▪ Other 20%

90% have thought about having sex ...

...with their ex spouses during or after their divorces.

75% have discussed ...

Seriously...the closer the IN trip comes, the more I just want to stay home! I hate this! Ugh...small podunk town with nothing to do...except of course fish in some mosquito infested pond next to MIL's house. Do you any of get stuck visiting In Laws, having to stay in their house, in some boring little town? How do you cope?! I couldn't bare letting my husband take my 11 month old with him for a whole week without me...
