the journal before this one explained a situation about a family wedding that is out of state and it is on a Sunday.  I sent the invite back saying me and the kids are not going because the kids would have to miss school.  Now, that is not too difficult to comprehend, right?  So, then I got an email from the ex sister inlaw asking me to let MY kids go anyway.  I replied to her and explained AGAIN.  Yesterday, I got an email from their dad that he has purchased tickets for my kids to go to the wedding anyway.  He said that he had not heard from me and it will count as his September visit.  The guy has some balls, right?

I told him in so many words that he is just harrassing me for his own pleasure.  I was having a good week, and now this.  I have heard from other divorced moms that the stress gets worse, with dealing with the ex and the ex inlaws.  So, is this what I have to look forward to?  When can I enjoy MY life???

Also, if he threatens to take my kids, what kind of legal action can I take?

Boy, I don't have any advise for you on this one. My ex is completely out of the picture, thank God. Hang in there and stand your ground!

How can he threaten to take the kids? Does he have any proof that your an unfit mom cause wouldn't he have to prove that to the court? Don't you have custody? Girl I hope it doesn't get any worse cause then I am seeing a preview of whats to come for me too. And it looks like it sucks big time.bad

What a jerk~ oh I can't even imagine. I know if I weren't with my hubs it would be an ordeal because of our strong perosnalities. I'd say go with the flow right now~ BUT I'd still talk to a lawyer and see what your [and his] rights are and check and see if is really 'allowed' to just up and take them out of state like that.

Good luck hon!!! Chin up~ and "F" him!!

Honey, when you're doing your damnest, that's when you come most under attack. The answers lie within you. You must learn to tap the powers within. Learn the power of chanting and say...."The truth needs no defense. I'm visualizing and tapping into the source of finding my power in being powerless. Turn my setbacks into comebacks." Attacks by those closest to you hurt the most. They are personally designed to destroy your inner spirit, sanity, and faith. Remember and choose who you serve.....
