trying to be strong and patient 14

Just thought of this: Perhaps she is merely a prospective OW2 -- your H might be using his kids to get closer to this new person?

Still, it's kind of sick if he's using his own children as a pick-up tactic.

[Puppy Dog Tails]

I agree.

Karen, fogged out H (same as my sitch). BTW, I am with you. No one gives free swimming lessons unless there is chemistry there. So whether it is potential OW or currently OW, it amounts to the fact that it is inappropriate to introduce kids to new OTHER PEOPLE.

[karen43]

Yep, I agree. I just think if the situation was reversed and I was introducing the kids to different OMs every couple months--he would have such a cow!!! But of course I never would do that!!! Karen

[Yoyowife]

Of course you wouldn't Karen! You have morals, something your H is sorely lacking!

[pollyanna]

Yes - Not only would you never do that to your kids , it is amazing how in this situation , whats good for the goose is NOT good for the gander.

Always better to be on the moral high ground.

I agree - Nothing free in this world - she is prospecting

[Sugar and Spice]

Yep. I agree with the above completely. H questions your parenting because that is about the only thing he has left to control where you are concerned. Its easier to point the finger at others than to look at our own short-comings (him, not you).

He must be the Florida chapter president of the one man dumb-ass committee...now recruiting in an are near you!

I think my H is the Central Valley chpt. pres and Blindsideds H takes care of So. Cali. Michelle LTs has the Northern part of the state...so we are well covered here.

Yes, he is. I know this because we elected him by acclamation at our last board meeting.

Ok, picked up S15 last night. D9 went with me and tried to say hi to her dad, but he was on his cell phone the whole time (so didn't really say goodbye to S15 or hi to D9). That's how he was when we were together too, but seriously you have to feel sad for him, although I feel sad for the kids too.

H's going to take D9 to track night tonight after her 9 hours of summer camp (I think she's so tired out, she fell asleep during practicing her play yesterday she told me). She wants her dad to drop her off by 9 though b/c S15 and I are going to watch the season premiere of Total Drama Island and it's their favorite show. I'm going to make chocolate chip cookies too, S15 says they have to be ready by 9. I love my kids!!! Karen
