Ok, so this weekend it normal rotation and we are suppose to have sd, but becasue it is Mothers Day she will have to go home early on Sunday. We have moved since last Mothers Day so there is Travel involved.

Becasue my husband works on Saturday that means I will be the one at the house with the Sd, but because it is Mothers Day weekend, I had planned to spend the day with my mother on Saturday and enjoy Sunday with my child. Well, now that I will have this tag-a-long, I already know it is going to be a miserable day. She will bitch and complain until I pull my hair out and am ready to go.

I hav mentioned it to my husband that becasue it is mothers day weekend why not let just stay with her mom. Of course, I was the evil one.

But, personally on Mothers Day I do not want to drive all the way to the sd's moms.

Another freakin day in the life of everything is about the sd.....

I agree that your DH is being unfair. You have plans with your mother. HE should be taking care of his child. If he can't, maybe she needs to stay with BM all weekend. If he's working Saturday what does it matter if she stays with her mom. He won't have time to spend with her anyway.

nope. nope, nope

you are 100% right and have the opportuntiy to look so "empathetic" by saying "it's mother's day, the little darling SHOULD be with her MOTHER for the weekend" and get out of it!

Do you have the kind of relationship with his Ex that you can call her and tell her how IMPORTANT you think it is for SD to be with her this weekend??

You are 100% right. The child should be with her mother for mothers day. I asked my DH if we were going to have SS4 this sunday, as it is mothers day. His response was "yes. Why?" I said "Most normal mothers would want to be with thier children on mothers day"

He said, nope, we will have him. Or, he will. I am considering making the drive to visit my mom.
