Me: Are you still wanting the kids in (W's town) the weekend of S1's birthday? W: Yes. I told you I've booked to go away. Me: So I can't even see him? W: It was your choice. I need the break and it was either the weekend before when you would have had them or after. Made sense to go away on his birthday. Me: It was not my choice to not see him on his birthday. W: You could easily have had your mother look after them on the Friday while you were at work and they could have stayed at hers on the Sunday night. I would have come and collected them on the Monday evening. You continue to cut your nose off to spite your face. It's only your kids you are punishing. Me: It feels like I'm being punished because I wouldn't give you the days off you have wanted. W: Im sorry you feel like that but it was certainly not the case. Maybe we can book yours holidays together next year so you get more time with them and I also get some holiday time.
I left it at that. I would have only got angry with her and got nowhere.
Isn't that nice of her to offer to control some of my life to suit her future needs?
Funny how she needed me to take the kids so she could have a break (from the kids) but now she takes them away with her on her break with very convenient timing.
