At kid events, school or sports, etc what happens when you are all there?
Can you act like adults and sit together with polite small talk or not?
My ex likes to avoid me, pretend cant find anywhere to sit and sit apart, sometimes tries to get one of the children to sit with him and completely ignores me and its getting really old and I think is terrible for the kids! I always attempt to make small talk and say hi and by, save a seat (if I knwo will show up). Has not said a complete sentance to me in probably about 15-18 months. I cant even remember. This is all in front of the kids. Sends messages through the kids. Even at kids birthday we all get together just ex myself and kids in a restaurant and ignores me, we cant have any conversation together as a family. It is either between me and kids or him and kids. When I try to engage him and ask a question, ex ignores me or gives a 1 word answer in a grunt at the absolute most. All i nfront of the kids. So do I say something, knowing it is highly unlikley to make any difference? say something to the kids? I mainly just ignore this behavior and pretend it isnt happening, but obviosly our kids notice this, I just hope they dont role model it.
Just wondering how this works out for other families
