Just as I am driving down the block I asked s you have your uniform? He said he forgot it. So my s calls his mom and she already left the house. She said she will not go home and bring it to the game later. Fast forward. His game was at 6:30 but we’d had to be there at 6 to practice. Ex is not there. She calls my phone at 6:10 I had the phone to s and the ex is saying she can’t find the uniform. My s starts to cry how is he going to play.
Your son needs consequences for forgetting or else he has no incentive to improve. If you just bring him his stuff every time he forgets than that is the system that works for him. He is also is crying over not playing? No, he's crying because you are "acting out" by not taking action when he forgets things and this is upsetting the system.
I coached high school football for 6 years, if a young man forgot an essential piece of equipment or uniform I would loan them the piece of equipment and they would have to run a mile. Discipline. Start treating young men like men.
You can't blame your ex so much, and it seems like that is what you want to do.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
