THE OW CONTACTED ME - WHAT??

[BeingMe]

Ah, you have a court case coming up. Let your L know that she is questioning/lying to your sons about you. Let your boys know that you love them, no matter what, and will always be there for them. It is so sad that they are put in this difficult position. My H's stepmom used to talk about his mom, and he and his younger brother used to hate it, especially the younger brother. It has been years and years, and it is only recently that he kinda gets on with her (since she became a christian, and I guess realised she was doing the wrong thing). Their father had full custody and they used to have to meet their mom around the corner when she took them for the weekend or holidays, or just a day out. OW and your WAH must take care what they do or say .... kids don't like their moms being bad-mouthed, especially boys.

I agree with bluestar to document all contact with the boys by XH. Your neighbors will be good witnesses to their picking up and dropping off. OW has made sure they are seen having access, so her exhibition in front of the neighborhood may have worked to your favor. Although, I'm sure it's to show what a "wonderful" stepmother she is by hugging your boys in front of their mother. Making such an issue makes one wonder what she is hiding, and now we hear what. Good for your boys for telling you the truth, but I am sure they must've had a hard time "tattle-tailing", but kids know what's fair. At least, they can never say you spoke badly of your XH and OW to them.

There definitely is an agenda. I am glad they have underestimated you and the support you and your boys have.
