My Divorce Mom Strikes Again!

[mrsnj]

Just spoke to dad. She texted him last night. I said at least she has an excuse. She didn't SEE him. She picked up here yesterday and couldn't talk in person. Sent me a email. He was shocked. He said she told him they are enrolled up where she moved and he would have to make up the difference (which is more money) AND enrolled them into private school up there for the fall which she expects him to pay and he told her hes taking her to court. So now she is pissed at him! I told him this was all over my charging her. He said GOOD. About time someone makes her own up and be responsible! Hes talking to his lawyer today when he gets into work. I did tell him I have a waiting list and if they cannot straighten this out I will have to give notice. He understood and said he will tell his lawyer stat. He is fighting for custody. Mom doesn't know this yet. They are getting their ducks in order before pulling her in. I feel bad for him cause this will upturn everything he has planned but...........

Ooooooo the momma drama!

I hope you are going to charge her for the extra hour and a half .

I agree. That is absolutely absurd that someone would bring their children somewhere to be cared for 90 minutes early!

Sounds like Mom is in for a rude awakening.

OMG an hour and a half early? I think I might have called her right back and said come get them or pay me xxxx crazy amount of money. And by the way, don't come back!

situations like this make me so mad, why don't the courts give full custody to the normal parents anymore even if it is the dads. Grrr. But good for dad for fighting, at least he can give them a normal childhood and stable home.

So, she dumped the kids and took off, didn't bring them to the door? I'd call her right now and tell her to come pick up her children. I'd term immediately for that. Not only is it disrespectful to you, but it's not safe to dump your kids not knowing whether they'll be admitted.

This^^^ Children are to be accompanied to and from the child care BY an adult. They must be signed in and out by an adult.

I would call her immediately too!

NO way would I have accepted them into care an hour and a half early!

Mom is just walking that line.....Dad said his lawyer is watching the dockets as the final thing to gather before they pull her into court. Seems she has a DUI and crashed her car. Guess her 'car is in repair' wasn't the truth. Her punishment is awaiting.....its a matter of 6 months to a year of no lic. Man it just gets better and better.

I gave him till next Friday as he is still awaiting her lawyer to get back to him with a date to fight the pulling. Then hes on his own........

Since the late fee isn't to gain any extra $, why not just NOT allow it anymore?

By allowing it, you are accepting her behavior and that is why she is having trouble following through with being on time.


My late fee is $10 for being late and $1 per minute that they are late.

Second late offense is double the $$$ ($20 for being late; $2 for each minute late)

Third late fee is either 3x the fees OR immediate termination.

I get that things happen and try to be understanding about it but I won't work with some one who has zero respect for me or my time.

This mom is showing you that she has no respect for you or your time.

I COMPLETELY LOVE THIS....
My late fee is simply $1 per minute... but your LATE FEE is far better...

I tell each and every parent
My late fee is $1 per minute...
and
I DO NOT WANT YOUR DOLLAR...or DOLLARS... so DO NOT BE LATE to pick up your child...

Mom is just a train wreck, isn't she!?
Among her problems, almost sounds like she's using day care to get back at dad too.
