Coparenting Questions Not to Ask

Questions not to ask tonight at the coparenting class:

1) How do you communicate in a coparenting arragement when his probation states no contact?

2) How do you negotiate in co-parenting when ex-spouse says he will choke the carp out of you?

3) What if the view from the little chair is the chair your ex-spouse likes to take?

4) If he acts up when it's his turn to take this class will you throw him out or can you finally have him committed?

5) My main obstancle keeping me from being able to coparent with my ex-spouse is him. How do I work thru that?

I am really not getting much out of this course, but the look on the counselor lady's face when I ask a question is pure entertainment for me. I know she is afraid of what I am about to ask. Last week, I asked why you should take this class in coparenting in an abuse situation. The course is court ordered for everyone going thru custody/visitation/support issues and it's 2 nights 3 hours apiece.

IMO, and this is just me, I think you SHOULD ask those questions.

Applause to you, Pinto, for even sitting around thinking this stuff up. Your sense of humor shows tremendous strength. And again I say of the questions, ironically appropriate. You already got the "Steel Ovaries Award" for the question you asked in the first session.
