The decision is made

[ACJ]

When S15 was here the other night he reverted to type and did not come back on time for me to take him back to Hs etc. On my third telephone call to him to find out where he was he said he was getting a lift back (from one of his friend's who drives) and that he had already let H know about it. When I asked why he hadn't had the courtesy to let me know he said he had no credit left. So I sent H a big long TM about him having responsibility for passing on information like that to me as I am after all still S15s legal guardian. No reply of course.

Yesterday S15 let slip that when he did get home H and OW were already in bed. That really p88sed me off b/c I ALWAYS wait up for him.

I was really late home last night as I had to go to an evening meeting. I had forgotten my mobile in the morning so there were loads of messages and missed calls on it. One was from S15s music teacher - again. He was saying how urgent it was that he heard from me. I immediately called H and asked him if he had called last week when he was supposed to and he said he had forgotten! I was so angry but I held it back and just asked him to deal with it today. I even had to give him the number again! I have spent so long building up a good R with school over S15s truancy and lack of effort in his work and H has ruined it in just one short week.

This morning I logged onto my emails (as I didn't have chance to look at them yesterday). There were two from H (completely unheard of). The first told me that he would pay S15s pocket money this month. I just replied OK. I wish I had looked at the other one first (as that actually arrived first). This one was to tell me that he was reducing the maintenance even further due to S15 staying with him. He told me it had gone down further than I might have expected as his taxes have increased (all our f888ing taxes have increased). It is serious money he has reduced it by. He did take care to tell me he had taken advice from the Child Support Agency! Of course they don't know that he has been underpaying for most of the time he has been away b/c I have never involved them. So my reply pointed out that we didn't even know for sure if S15s move there was permanent. I also asked for recompense for the £70 trainers I bought S15 last Saturday and the £22 I gave him for his school prom. I was more than happy to pay for these things but not if H is going to be so pedantic as this.
