Someone has got to do it.

My DH does not like communicating with bio mom. For 1. He can't stand her 2. She doesn't communicate things to him & 3. He forgets & 4. Quite obviously he us a typical man who just doesn't think about communicating things. On occasion, I think 3 times in 4 years I have texted bio mom from DH phone to let her know about a situation. Before you say, NO COMMUNICATION IS NEEDED... The communication has to happen because a court appointed counselor is involved & says so. So I told him, I have no problem texting bio mom from his phone when something needs to be communicated. There have been PLENTY times I have said you should probably text her that... & he doesn't because of one of the four reasons listed above. Do any of you do this? I don't see a problem with it, as long as DH & I discuss what is going to be communicated & he reads the texts so he knows what was said.

I don't really think it is wrong...but I do think it is a bad idea. Hun...your DH is not handicapped or mentally unable to send a text is he? If he (the father) does not feel the need to text BM...I am not sure why you think you should....?

I have done and still do both. Text BM from DH's phone as well as from my own. Communication has always been easier for BM and I to just do ourselves. On occasion, there are things that are better coming from DH, but he is a punk and doesn't use tact when texting her, so I will usually type and send it. But not before letting DH know exactly what it says.

Whatever works for you...every situation is different.
