He's not trying to punish the kids, he's trying to punish BS.

He does that by not spending Xmas day with the kids. He knows that will upset BS, and it has.

What he's not mature enough to understand is that the game of using the kids as a pawn in his marital chess game isn't what a real father does.

Trust me on this.
