I knew this would happen
So last Fathers day (A sunday) BM refused to let SO have SD even though it was Fathers day AND his court ordered day.
WELL, today she dropped SD off for exactly an hour because she had a "job interview". ok whatever....use SO as your personal babysitter you pathetic bitch. When she came to pick SD up I was in the kitchen and heard everything:
BM: I need you to keep her till 4 on Saturday because Im having a yard sale, plus I'm going to need her early on Monday because its my birthday so thats conveinent.
(SO has SD Sunday overnight and brings her back to BM at 4 Monday, Also he has her Friday night and brings her back to BM in the morning but now she wants to switch the drop off times because she is busy and its her bday...whatever)
BM: Also on Mothers day I get to have her because its MY holiday so you're going to have to take her Monday overnight instead.
SO just told her he'll see because he works Mondays....WTF.
I knew she was going to do this. The CO doesnt specify holidays except to refer to the state parenting holiday schedule. Ok, well they haven't been following that schedule they have both been sharing holidays.
And its bullshit because there is nothing we can do to be like umm no bitch, you ruined his entire fathers day but you want him to change his whole schedule for mothers day.
How about start acting like a damn mother and then you get to celebrate!
What do you think he should do??

Is he upset about it? BM
Is he upset about it?
BM has tried things like this with us before, and sometimes, DH just doesn't care. To him, it's not worth the fight. And I get angry that he's not angry and then I end up feeling like a complete idiot because at the end of the day, they're not my kids, and it's not my decision.
Relinquish the control and let SO make the decision. If he's okay with you, you need to find a way to be okay with it too.
If he's not, then it sounds to me like he doesn't have to hand over SD if he doesn't want to.
He was sure upset when she
He was sure upset when she ruined fathers day. Hes not so much "mad" as he is irritated that she is doing this. Because he knows what game she is playing and its nonsense. He works most nights and he can not just switch his schedule around when its conveinent for her...
Then it sounds to me like he
Then it sounds to me like he should stand his ground and say no. I'm not familiar with the details of what happened on Father's day, but he's got a custody agreement on his side right now. It doesn't matter if they've been flexible in the past with sharing holidays; his days are his days.
If he wants to keep SD, then he should. Will he stand up to her and do that, or do you think he'll back down?
We are following the CO, I
We are following the CO, I just looked up the holiday parenting time for our county and its says for mothers day weekend the mother gets the child until 6pm sunday night, which is only an hour later than he usually picks SD up for his
Sunday overnight. So either we can follow the county suggested holiday time (which will piss her off) or we can just switch days. Switching days is the easiest route but then she still gets to get away with always having her way.
