Fighting my way out of the dark - Part 8

[Holding]

I would just ignore the snark and rise above it. It will frustrate her when she can no longer get a rise out of you because you don't care any longer, and then she'll stop.

Rising above is what I'm trying to do. I hope she gets frustrated and stops soon. Any estimates on how long I can expect to see this snark from her?

FWIW, I don't think it's practical for you two to be on a conference call for every teacher conversation, the logistics are too difficult.

I agree. I think it'll eventually head in that direction. I know XW will not want to sustain that level of involvement. Maybe this is one of those opportunities for handling conflict...

Finally, you don't care if she looks like an absentee parent, that is not your concern.

I hear you on that!

On another note, in a recent message XW stated "We've messed up the kids' lives enough". I'm glad she's starting to see that this isn't a cake walk for the kids. But I also notice she's projecting onto me by using "we".
