    As I have stated "Pursuing", in this particular case the new partner is a bad dude. Physical assault to me at one of my kids' activities.
    Sorry to hear. I have a new partner and although he could beat the snot out of my ex...he would never do any such thing, nor would I be with him if he did...so you have my sympathies.

    My comments were general...not specific to you.

      I LOVE NBDAD's response and he is right on the ball with the following comments:

      Here's how this will play out:

      1. You'll bitch at the school, they'll inquire with your ex.

      2. Your ex will send the school an email, or write them a letter for the kids file "I hereby give permission for %mynewspouse% to sign for permissions slips/letters/etc for things that fall on my parenting time"

      3. School's policy is now happy, YOU get branded as a nitpicking control freak,AND the school is now pissed at YOU, because you made a big deal out of nothing AND made them do extra paperwork.

      4. YOUR EX is now irritated with you, and can/will leverage this as an example of how the two of you cannot effectively coparent. When he has sufficient examples, expect a court motion to remove YOUR decision making ability and authority.

      Pick your battles. This one....isn't worth fighting over. It's very very minor in the scheme of things.


      And there is a ton of interesting information in here. While there may be some stuff in the thread the OP doesn't like, he/she is free to not post and/or read what is written.

      Really, this is what it is all about - picking through the comments form posters AND your ex, and trying to always put your best foot forward. It is hard sometimes, but it is also called "the real world".

        I agree with Blink.
