I think YOU also paid for the meal! My STBX (as you well know) is probably the most controlling person on the face of the earth, and listening to that stuff constantly is DRAINING; "Do not call or text S11 after 9PM" , "Wash his hockey stuff before he brings it home" (at $1.75 a load to wash and another $1.75 to dry); "You may not use the car when you're with your father. HE has to provide transportation". I can't believe listening to that stuff does any good for you. Don't you just want to tell her to "Shut up!"?
