Thanks for giving me feedback. I got her reply...here it is:
Quote:
Reread your e-mail. You begin by apologizing, then you berate and threaten me. STOP being defensive. That is not necessary. You should have stopped the email after "So what are you saying?" and given me an opportunity to continue the discussion.
What I am saying is that I don't appreciate the way this was handled. PERIOD. I discussed all of these changes to visitation and my travel to Indiana with you IN ADVANCE and you agreed to everything. I gave you an opportunity to have input -- to have an opinion.
I am asking you for the same courtesy. Discuss things with me FIRST, rather than just demanding to have your way and/or shoving a decision down my throat.
I am not a bitch, Rob, and this is a point which you have clearly missed for years. I would not punish your family financially or otherwise -- or Grace -- because of a two hour difference. I am asking you for some respect and consideration. It shouldn't be that difficult.
Send me the flight itinerary and I will meet you at the airport -- this time.
Ok, am I the only one that thought her original e-mail was a definitive NO on my getting my daughter at 10 am? In her reply above, she acts like she's doing me a favor and was simply starting a discussion. I guess I missed that one.
So, I started to reply, then stopped. I'm thinking I'll simply say "Thanks for getting back to me. I'll send you the flight information when I get it." Do I address anything she said or just leave it? I also wonder if I should mention that I should have talked w/ her first before oking the tickets.
