OT - school drama

My son is back with me today after a few days at his dad's. It's his last year of primary school. Yesterday all the kids were asked to write memories for the school yearbook or some such memory piece. I couldn't quite make out the full details but apparently he wasn't super complimentary about his school (which his dad and I and my partner all agree is not very good) and wrote something about how he expected his next school to be better. He says he didn't say anything really bad about the school, but I haven't seen the paper and I have my doubts.

Father's day drama

My partner went up to spend the day with his kids on Father's Day. I tagged along, because I wanted to hang out with him in the car (it's about 5 hours in car all told) and I also wanted to see an art exhibition near where his kids live. The plan was to get kids, hang out with them a bit, go to lunch and then I'd go to the exhibition on my own and then we'd meet up after. 

BM Planning on our time

My partner of one year has two boys SS12 and SS9 - and I have one BS 11. Unlike many here, things with the kids are going really well - so much so that we're about to move in together.  SS9 has some loyalty issues, but hey ho. But my SO doesn't allow them to treat me badly and we back each other up and when I do stuff for his kids he is thankful and appreciative and he does so much for my BS that it's really a good trade out.
