W arrived to drop off the kids. I politely said Happy Birthday but no card or present. One of the kids was a bit upset saying goodbye as it was W birthday and W has said she had nothing planned that evening so made them feel guilty about coming to me. W told them to get back into the car and that she would take them back with her for the night. W drove off with the kids so breaking the court order (again). She brought the kids back the next day. Kids are now with me and I plan to make the most of what time I have with them.
So what are you doing now? What does your lawyer say?? I will frankly be surprised if she even shows up to the next drop off....what incentive is there when the precendet is that you just politely wait until she comes back.
I get not starting a scene in front of the kids. I also get not sending the police to her house to escort them back. But what kind of discussion are you having with her? How is she being shown that this type of behavior is not acceptable??
