D10 called me bawling and hyperventilating begging me to pick her up. She didn't want to go but H told her that if they didn't go it would hurt GM/GF feelings. Not sure why their feelings are ranked above his kids. Circle back to things that don't make sense to me.


1. This story made me so, so sad for you and your kids. How are you managing this parenting situation?

2. Re inviting to dinner after the concert...I see both sides of your argument. If you can look great and have an awesome attitude and have a great time with your kids with your H there...then I'd invite him. If it's going to make everything tense and moody and spoil the evening...then don't.
