Apparently not allowed to drive SS14

Hi there,

Just venting, so this week I was supposed to drive SS14 to school just one time because SO had early work commitments. The kid was absolutely fine with me driving but BM picked him up instead without letting me or SO know. I don't really care if she wants to drive her own kid but it doesn't really make any sense considering she needs to go out of her way and school is not far from our place.

And then as usual I'm here wondering why SKs don't talk to me....

I would be pissed that BM is coming and going from the house without warning. And pissed that you made plans to drive him and weren't told.

That it is just a manipulation tactic to put a bridge between me and SKs,.and it works wonders. It's like a sneaky smear campaign

If BM ever steps on your property or enters your home. Have her arrested. Do not give DH a choice. Your home, your call.

An X, even one who has spawned with the SP's mate, has no business entering the SPs home.  

Period. Dot.

This would have chapped my ass to the point that BM would rue the day. If she takes the kid on dad's time, the police would be called.  If BM set foot in SM's home, police would be called.  

Grrrrr.

This kind of crap cannot be tolerated IMHO.  

All it would take for BM to avoid hell on earth, would be for her stay in her lane.

IMHO.

She didn't go in the house or driveway, she picked him up from the street. 

I told the kid when it was time to go "hey X, let's go, are you ready?" and he replied a shy "my mom is on her way to pick me up"..... And she arrived like a minute later.

Not mad at the kid at all for not telling me his mum had been texting him, in fact he seemed like he was on eggshells.

I don't think you need to be mad about him not telling you "this time".. but he needs to understand in the future that when he is on dad's time.. he needs to let his dad... and you if appropriate.. if his mom is going to be dipping in and doing things like drive him to school.

Hey son, I don't have a problem if your mom wanted to drive you to school on Monday, but I had made plans for DW to do it.. and it's only fair for her to know what is happening... I mean, there was no real need for your mom to do the driving since we already had made arrangments... so if this was something you were wanting to do, I hope we can talk about why you didn't want DW taking you.

That he was fine with me driving. The poor kid just didn't want to confront or say no to his mom. He knows there is tension between dad/SP and BM. He can't go against his mom when she tells him she is gonna pick him up.

I feel like it wouldn't be fair to him

He doesn't have to go against his mom.. but he does need to let the parent in charge (or SP if they are doing the task)... know.  That was a bigger issue.

I also am thinking that he doesn't have to potentially be aware that you are driving vs his dad.. so how would BM know? It actually isn't something that the boy needs to know.. if he doesn't know.. how does BM know?

Text to BM (preferably from your DH):  "Please inform us in a timely manner if you plan on going out of your way and picking up SS to take him to school, and we can plan accordingly. Thank you."  Bitch.

SD14 and BM are guilty of this exact same thing! She will come pick up SD without any notice. Obviously she coordinates with SD14 behind DHs back. She also leaves the house without telling DH. 

It is common courtesy to know who is coming and going in my own house. Drives me crazy!
