Thanks all. Another nasty outburst in front of the kids and my nephews.

Saturday..my day...cold raining and nasty. I watched my two nephews for my sister. We all went to IHOP for breakfast. Then...across the road to PetSmart. We checked out the animals. Then...to a store with puppies so that they could pet them and see the other animals.

Went home. The boys began playing Xbox...Call of Duty...a game rated M that's been in the house for over a year. I began to play Pictionary with D6 in the other room. STBXW came home and began tearing me a second AH. Falsely accused me of buying a new game rated M (the only games I bought this season were E and T). She took the game and started S9 crying again. In front of the kids, she said, "one of us has to be a parent" after a huge tirade.

S9: Dad....mom's been in the house when I've been playing the game and she NEVER said anything before."

My son later said to his cousin "I hate my mother". Later that night, he didn't even want to go upstairs to get his PJ's. He used hand signals to tell me to go upstairs and bring them down to him. The next day, Sunday, STBXW called me in the evening to tell me that she was sleeping over her parents with the kids. If it was done to 'punish' me, it didn't, as I know that I will be seeing them less soon.

Another horrible outburst done in front of the kids and my nephews.

On a lighter note, as we drove to dinner, my son began to discuss the issue in the car. My 7 year old cousin then said "mutiny is in order."

(BTW...I spoke with S9 re: talking against his mother and told him not to do it. This one was hard to explain away to him tho'. I DID tell him that it was NOT about him.)

Bright kid.
