LOL.
You always crack me up. I can't believe Rat's kid is 5 now. My how time flies. Perhaps your ex can go on a vacation with just Rat, since that's what it seems she wants and then he can go on one with just your kids.
Maybe your lawyer could get something in writing that your kids can not babysit her kid. That's ridiculous!
Furthermore, if they wanted to leave the country so badly why didn't they just tell you where and when (completely reasonable) as opposed to making it some stupid mystery mind game. THat's so lame. They are truly losers.
