Divorced Mother Refused To Watch Her Kids When Her Ex-Husband Had To Visit His Wife In The Hospital
It seems like her hatred of her ex is more important than her love for her children.
Co-parenting can be harder when divorced parents try to build a new family.
This woman’s ex-husband had to be with his pregnant wife in the hospital.
But it was his scheduled day to have the kids, so he asked her for a favor.
She refused, and now everyone thinks she’s being too difficult.
Read the story below for all the details.
My ex husband and I divorced 4 years ago.
We have two daughters together.
My ex-husband remarried 1 year ago.
I knew that he and his wife were expecting.
That’s because my daughters told me that they would get a sibling.
This woman got a request from her ex-husband to watch their kids.
Now, this Friday, it was his week with the girls.
He called me.
And asked if I could please take them earlier.
Because he needed to be with his wife at the hospital.
She refused.
I said no.
That is not a reason to disobey the court order.
He either could stay with the girls or leave the girls with a babysitter.
He could also take them with him to the hospital.
I hung up before he could continue.
Both her ex-husband and their mutual friend texted her afterward.
He texted me about two hours after.
He told me that I was extremely sick in the head.
He said, for once, he was in a situation where he needed my help, and I refused.
His best friend was a mutual friend of ours until the divorce.
He also texted me and said that he hoped I was happy with myself.
She doesn’t understand why they think she’s in the wrong.
I don’t get how I could be a jerk.
But it obviously seems like he and his best friend have come to that conclusion.
If I am the jerk, yes I will apologize.
But firstly, I need to know.
