I think it is so funny when the parents who do not have custody think they run the show. I have been watching this site for a while and read many posts and comments. I have been dealing with my stepchilds BM for a while and she thinks she runs the show. I really wish she would get a clue, because she has taken DH backs to court so many times for custody and every time they say NO (once you lose custody for certain reasons you never get it back)! Still she likes to try, and when she fails at that, she then she tries to force upon changes to schduling and events during our schedule and it just does not fly. I sit back and laugh of course I let DH do all the communicating but she should know better, I always have the final say, as most women do. lol
