So let me clarify. Its IHS, and yeah, Australia does not like split families. When we go down the path of a parenting plan, I'm prepared for disappointment because of the age of D2. What I'm saying is doing kid things in my sitch. Rewind a month ago, and she was gung ho on family events despite sep.Now she's purposely ignoring me and organising events with S and D1, or D2 and D1, but not all three (too much effort IMHO).

It does seem that since we both agree on D, and she's making an effort to exclude me, that I don't factor her into anything. I was just thinking from a 180 POV that I've historically been passive on organizing family events, so as something different, I'd suggest something with all 5 of us. But let me do it with just the kids, and not her. It doesn't make sense considering the current climate. She's still trying to pick fights to the point where D1 says "I never said that, you are exaggerating Mom."

I'm so thrilled to get back in touch with old friends, and to GAL like 300% more than where I was two months ago.
