I am new to this board, but after lurking around, I already feel right at home. My DH and I have been married for a couple of years, and he shares joint custody of SS9. His ex is a real piece of...(insert adjective here). She is bi-polar and from the time that my DH and I started dating, she would call, e-mail, 4-5 times every day about all kinds of nonsense (what time is he going to bed?, what did he eat for dinner? etc. etc.) We stopped answering and responding to calls and told her that we would only respond if the request was in writing and relevant.
