Need Advice

We have 50:50 with skids and BM is not easy to deal with and we will be going back to court soon. She sent an email asking us for help on Wednesday as its parent teacher night and it's her night with the kids. She's asking us to confirm if we can take care of the skids or if we can go on her behalf as well. Every other year it's fallen on our night and we've made arrangements never asking for her help. We parallel parent. She has major attachment issues to DH and always threatening us with legal action to increase child support and spousal support. It's the albatross around our necks. How would you respond to her request? We intend to go, but do not to represent or have to get back to her with feedback as our efforts or actions do not include hers.

Just tell her you'll be at parent teacher night and she'll need to find alternate arrangements.

Just tell her you can't babysit and she needs to make her own arrangements. Then tell her to only contact you if its an emergency based on kids.stupid wench

Thanks for the advice. DH responded ''we have a conflict and cannot help you out. You will need to make alternate arrangements'. She obviously didn't respond but sent a separate email on whether he would be at SS5's hockey practice this weekend (it's her weekend) and we have other commitments, so we responded with 'no, and we will drop off hockey equipment on your porch tmo around 7pm'. Of course we get a reply on 'glad to see you have your priorities in check and SS5 didn't make the cut'. I'm just so frustrated. She always gets the last word.

Oh, FFS, it's hockey PRACTICE. If the BM is taking him, this is NOT a priority for Dad to attend. SMDH
