And, without going into too much detail, I asked W about a trip S said we were taking for his birthday. I told her we could not afford that "now." Asked where she planned us to stay, and she replied, her parents. WHAT?! REALLY?!

Sorry, but didn't you just file a D petition against me? It is simply mind boggling that she would think we would all stay at her parents or that we would take a trip together as a family.

Am I overreacting or is this as crazy as I think it is?

It's not about whether or not y'all can afford this 'now'. It's about not taking a vacation with the woman who just served you D papers. It is simply mind boggling to me that either one of you would think that y'all would travel together - forget about who will sleep where. What? Is she going to pitch in on this event - split it half with you? No - YOU, YOU GIMA, will be paying for her holiday to celebrate her son's birthday. That is not D-World, sport. D-World for Mrs. Gima is that she will have to tell her son "I'm sorry, junior, but I can't afford Disney right now. Let's bake a cake and invite friends over."

Perfect opp for you to let her feel what D feels like.

And wow - what a con. Saying 'no' to her is in effect saying 'no' to your son which I KNOW you don't want to do. But she needs to know what D looks and feels like. No Disney.

You are not overreacting. It is crazy. Mrs. GIMA is cake-eating.

GRRRRRRR.
