Co-parenting Yuan and rarely becomes rainbows and sunshine .And while all parents only want what is best for their child, emotions and past experiences can influence how things are handled. It often happens.
A father posted on Reddit after calling his ex about the quality of the clothes sending his daughter home... but it Is it really fair?
"I sent my daughter home in cheap clothes."
"I have an ex-girlfriend, Yvonne, and a daughter, Kiki, and I have 50/50 custody. are shared,” the man wrote. his post.
``Every time Yvonne sends Kiki home, she wears old, dingy clothes. , her shoes are always dirty because they are not suitable for the weather (long sleeves in summer), etc.”
The man knows that his partner makes less He said he was sending a certain amount of money. He also covers his daughter's childcare/education expenses at his new wife's proposal, so all the funds he sends can be used to support his 7-year-old daughter.
"I didn't want to send Kiki home in her mom's clothes." I sent her in, so I started sending her home with the clothes I bought," he continued, adding, "She always messed up her clothes and sent them home."
The final straw was when the man's new mother-in-law bought her daughter new shoes. The shoes she returned a week later "totally ruined and muddy." So the couple went out and bought bulk clothes from cheap retailers and sent them to their mother's house, keeping the more expensive items in their home, but to no avail. Yvonne calls us little people, and watching our clothes and shopping at 'cheap stores to send to mom's house' is uncomfortable for Kiki and creates a toxic environment. I said yes," he said.
"I don't want my daughter walking around messy when she doesn't need to. It's embarrassing and I know it doesn't feel good for Kiki." said he doesn't recognize the difference in quality, but he's been extending his daughter's life by keeping better quality clothes at home. I asked if they were doing 'little things'.
"It's not like she's wearing rags."
People could see what the father did with his daughter's clothes.
"I think Yvonne is deliberately trying to ruin the new clothes you sent Kiki," one person commented. "Now she's mad because I sent Kiki to her with her clothes on. It doesn't matter if Kiki's broken or not. She's AH [a-hole].
Another suggested, if you give money according to her needs, there is no reason for her to be ragged and dirty all the time, there may be some misuse or neglect of the money you sent.
"The children are wildly dressed," a third chime rang. "I don't know what your ex-girlfriend is complaining about. Does she expect you to buy her 7-year-old at Nordstrom?" people asked. Walmart, Target, etc. are great places to shop for her kids' clothes, and it's not like she's wearing rags.
