BM PAS'ing

Jonesie's picture

Okay so lately every time DH calls SD5 while she is at her mom's SD answers the phone saying, "I can't talk right now." When he asks her what she is doing she just repeats, "I can't talk right now." And then hangs up.

It's so weird! I think BM is telling SD not to talk to her dad!

BM has a new BF, a new job with long hours, and she lives an hour away from her parents. I think BM is probably doing a lot of stuff with SD that she does not want DH to know about. Like working late hours and having her parents watch her instead of calling DH, letting the BF spend the night (which is a big no-no in the temporary order, and sending SD to the neighbors house instead of watching her. She's only known the neighbor's for one month because that's how long she's lived in this house!

Anyway, it's sad seeing DH so perplexed when his FIVE year old daughter hangs up on him. I cannot believe SD is saying this just because.

Has anyone experienced this and if so, what do you do!

"Talk to DH and let him know you are on his side. Then encourage him to ask open ended questions of his skid like "what did you do today besides Nothing?" as opposed to "how was your day?"

Sorry to hear that. Our BM didn't allow the Skids to call DH on father's day (he is in the military, at annual training) because "she figured he was busy". WTF. Of course he can take calls, and worst case, why not let them leave a message? Rotten insecure women.

That is awful.

Being in the military and married to someone who is military I can say that phone calls from home are A RELIEF

The next time he gets that answer he should drive over and make a "welfare check". Perhaps stopping by the local police station to tell them why he's doing this and asking if they should accompany him.
