Well, she hemmed and hawed about putting the two oldest back in their original school (the one I'm zoned for and the one they attended last year), and finally stuck her nose up and put them in the one she's zoned for. 3 schools in LESS than a single year. Yee-haw.
All this after she claimed she couldn't put them in their old school as she had them 4 days a week. (False, I called and confirmed with the district AND the principal there would be ZERO issues accomodating them) Only hindrance is the transportation, she got snarky when I asked her how she planned on getting them to school on time. (She had MAJOR issues with this previously).
Got a phone call a few weeks back from my youngest son's pediatrician (as noted in my original post, he had some serious concerns around his weight when he was a few months younger and was under the care of a pediatrician at the direction of CPS). Anyway, she missed the scheduled checkup that she had booked 6 months ago.(surprise! I was never told about it).
Anyway I booked the appt and made sure he went. I had advised her CPS worker of this, and I'm guessing the worker told HER, because she somehow found a way to show up at the clinic. (not awkward AT ALL *sigh*)
Benefits for my new job (the constant requirement to pick up the pieces of HER bad decisions cost me my old job) finally kicked in, so I took my 3 oldest to the dentist. Their mother had taken them back in July, the oldest apparently had 5 cavities. 6 months later....NO followup on her part, despite being on assistance and having access to a drug card that should have covered those expenses 100%.
Annnnnddd the snarky emails begin again about "Why were the kids not in school today" "I want to be informed of the appointments/etc/etc". This immediately following a retardedly long email chain 3 days ago involving a $10 pair of shoes she accused me of having...wound up they were at their old school. (well or so she claims, issue is that I had already SPOKEN with BOTH teachers 8 days previously when she finally decided to inform me of the decision to put them at the school she's zoned for....and they had already confirmed there were no personal items of the children left at the school) (Guess if you are going to claim something, might be a good idea to make it something I can't already PROVE differently)
I kept replying..."I just gave you $600 worth of my CCTB 3 weeks ago, the NB Government gives you over a GRAND, which includes an expense for clothing allowance....so go buy the kid a $10 pair of shoes already. (Note i've already provided 5 pairs of shoes for my son, and between her grandmother and myself...over 7 for my daughter...guess how many are actually at my home?)
Oh AND the Kids tell me that "Mommy says she going to have another baby"...with the newest "fiancee"....yeah the one she's been living with/seeing for < 2 months now. Way to be stable *golfclap* and good job on the impressionable young children.
The good news is that I'm almost done the assessor's report...just have a home review left and then I'm golden. Apparently the ex went for her initial appointment, and then got word her request to have legal aid cover the cost was denied. She's made no attempt to make arrangements with the assessor's office, and they indicated they were going to try to get a hold of her one more time and then deem her uncooperative.
From what the assessor told my girlfriend, in the event one parent is uncooperative, and there is no reason otherwise, they automatically will find in favor of the cooperative parent. So keep your fingers crossed for me that she continues her pattern of stupidity for the next month.
