sM's attempt at an apology
sM shows up halfway into dd13's performance as she is alone with her for most of the weekend since ExH is with my boys at a scouting overnight camp out. It is intermission and she tells me she owes me an apology. I say yes, you were very out of line. Then she says, "really how so?" ... Which of course makes me wonder what she's apoligizing for.
The conversation didn't go well. It ended with me telling her I'm done speaking with her and her calling me unreasonable. When I got home, I sent ExH a text, knowing that he wouldn't receive it til the next day when he came down the mountain, stating that he should speak with the principal as it's clear he is not aware of exactly what his wife did and him and his wife should consider an apology to the principal bith for her behavior and for accusing the principal of lieing. I also stated that in the future I will deal directly with him regarding our kids.
I then sent the principal an email stating that I anticipate that ExH will be in contact and in the future, she has my permission (as the parent with sole legal custody) to speak about dd with ExH but she / teachers aren't to speak with SM.

Exactly. I asked her if her and exH even bothered to speak with the teachers. She looked at me and said, "i'm just not happy with the education being offered here" and I was (extremely sarcastic), "oh really SM... YOU don't like the education being offered?"
She didn't get my attempt at sarcasm and said, "yes, I'm not happy with the education"
I kept a smirk on my face and was like, "OK.. that's fine. You're not the parent and btw... you and exH are the WORST kind of parents. You know everything. You're SO smart. You don't like what's going on but you can't be bothered to pick up the phone and talk with a teacher. Have you or your husband ever spoken with a teacher? Do you know that no one knows who you two are? When you finally DO show up at an event, everyone asks who you two are because THEY"VE NEVER SEEN YOU".
She responds, "oh, no. my husband is very involved"
Ya, no SM. He's not. "Um do you knwo how many times he tried to get out of the campout this weekend? do you knwo how I had to twist his arm to make sure he went??"
= "Oh no. We've had this on the calendar since october."
-"Whether it's been on YOUR CALENDAR or not, you have no idea the number of exxcuses he's given me NOT to go. you have no idea"
Anyway... it didn't go well. She thinks she's married to an excellent father who devotes all his time to his children and she think she's STep Mommy extrodinaire, as her husband expects her to be. She has no idea.
My thought is why does this
My thought is why does this woman have your daughter if her dad is not around? You need ROFR. We had that and that worked great.
I agree. I offer to take my
I agree. I offer to take my kids when he is out of town but ExH thinks that SM is a good influence on the kids. (Cuz I'm so horrible, and unreasonable, clearly).
In the summer I iffered to take MY kids in Friday's as he always has the kids Thursday nights. He declined, stating that am was going to be taking the kids to museums and do enrichment activities. I think they may have done that once.
I'd love for him to take me to court so I can 1) have rofr 2l)! Get more child support 3) shit him the f up because he has no idea how nice I've been and how the courts favor the woman.
She doesn't like the
She doesn't like the education? Too bad so sad. Every now and then I read about a stepparent who thinks they get an equal vote in huge decisions like education.
Hopefully your ex will muzzle her.
