SD13: “hi dad, I just wanted to let you know that I want to spend the weekend with you”.

Well whoop d do . . It’s a darn shame I already have plans. I have a bridal shower Saturday. Funny thing is that this morning on the ride in hubby asks “so what time are you planning to go to ________on Saturday”? Let me get this straight so little missy hasn’t wanted anything to do with you in over a month (no visits in a month and no phone calls, won’t answer his texts) and you are asking me what my plans are? Man please I will not be sitting around on little missy to make an appearance like we’ve all just been sitting around waiting on her to come back. I am not for her entertainment purposes. What’s up with these guys not wanting to spend one on one time with their kids?? I told him this morning that he needs to have a talk with her. The only reason she’s coming is because he layed on a guilt trip and she feels obligated! When will he finally realize that she doesn't really want to come? If she doesn’t want to come that’s fine she just needs to communicate that with him and not ignore him like a little _____. (you fill in the blank).

I love this man to death but sometimes I want to choke him!

Good for you for not falling for that bullshit. I am just waiting for the day that SD14 does this. I'm going to laugh and kindly remind DH of the text SD14 sent him last week: "I don't want to talk to you, that's MY choice, goodbye"...

You know where I got the IDGAF from? A Breathe Carolina song (which also happens to be the ringtone on my phone now). Youtube it. Well worth a listen, even if you're not into that style of music.

Hey Red I love all music. I'll check this one out. I'm just tired of the games. I can't believe he was actually questioning my weekend. Like we are all supposed to be standing in the doorway waiting on her arrival. Man get out of here!

My daughter, 15, turned me on to them. They're a Denver band. Got to see them live at Warped Tour last summer. Awesome show!

And yes, your plans for this weekend are YOUR business. You shouldn't have to drop anything just because princess is deciding to finally grace you with her presence. Fuck that shit. I'd be as far away as possible!

That's my plan . .to be far away! But this DH would probably try to jump in the car with me and then I have to watch SD13 sulk in the corner all day and everyone ask me what's wrong with her. It's like one on one time with her is a no no for him.

Oh no - BULLSHIT. SHE DOES NOT GO WITH YOU! Your plans. She can't text at 6AM and demand to come over and then you have to drag her with you. Oh no. Do not allow that shit.

If you do, I'm gonna come find you and beat you with something hard! LOL Just kidding. I'm not a pyscho, but please do not make her a part of your plans. Would DH want to go with you to a BRIDAL shower anyway?

LMAO No he doesn't want to go but if it means not being alone with her he would. It's just to give them something to do I guess. She comes over . . stays in her room . .plays on the internet . .watches TV. He's downstairs doing whatever he wants to do. If they do anything it's like we all (my BS12 included) have to do it as a group. I really think she needs some one on one time with him. He thinks I'm just saying I don't really don't want to be bothered with his daughter.

I'd kindly remind him that she's coming for visitation WITH HIM, not you or BS12. That's what visitation is all about right?

I got to the point when SD14 started pulling that shit that I told DH, YOU are her dad. YOU need to figure out why every time she comes over all she wants to do is pout in her room. YOUR CHILD, YOUR PROBLEM!!!!!!!

He can think what he wants, but he's missing out on time with his kid that seemingly HE guilted her into...

Yeah I'm right here. . . I think it's too funny. I have an awesome time with my BS12. We like spending time together. But these two have no clue what to do with each other.

Yep! DD15 and I have a blast when she comes out to CO or I visit her in Detroit. Even DH loves DD15 and says he wishes she were "our" kid.

When SD14 is around, it's awkward and uncomfortable for EVERYONE.
