My son and I have always had a really good relationship and our time together has been great. I'd say there is some truth to using S time to have W time. But there hasn't been any other choice. If I want time with him, it has had to involve her.
I'm going to break that cycle this week in starting to take him to do things on our own and suggest W does the same.
Another hard thing is that W wants to have dinner as a family every night. Her and I split cooking time and she's really been putting a great deal of effort into what she cooks lately. Do I start making my son dinner and not include W? Or do dinner the 3 of us and then go about other business?
I'd vote for the last one. Some of this stuff depends on your sitch, And you know it better than we do. Admittedly some of the things that worked in my sitch were not DBing tactics. But I hesitate to tell posters here that because those things only work in very specific circumstances and a very small % of sitches.
