Ex and I have the 2 kids, 9 and 10, 50/50
Ex has a history of taking the kids out of school an hour early to go do fun things like rock climbing or playing at the park or some club which I didn't like but never made a stink about it to keep the peace even though I noticed an academic decline over the years.
This week the kids slipped (as mom drills them not to say ANYTHING to me) and told me their mom has been taking them out of school 4 hours before the end of school to hang out with her at the fitness club.
I emailed my ex expressing my disapproval and that school time is important for their future and playtime should be after school. She replied back saying "The boys like being at the club with me."
How do I even reply to that? I can't stop her/school won't stop her from taking them out of school during her days. I'm already the dad that makes them do homework and now stopping them from ditching school, so I don't know how to proceed.
