After two years my ex is still trying to stick it to me. My son called me to tell me he was out of his asthma inhaler. Mind you this is during my ex's time to have the kids and I got the call at 7 at night when there was no pharmacy open. I callled the pharmacy and left a message on the automated system so it can be filled today. In the meantime my son can use his nebulizer if need be. I called the ex this morning and told him he could pick it up later this afternoon. I am working 7a-7p today and it's my ex's day to have the kids. He gave me $hit about it because he feels he shouldn't have to pick it up!!! HELLO! This is a respiratory medication and he's being a jerk.
If I didn't have to work ALL day into the evening I would pick it up. Heck I could have gotten it yesterday had I been given notice!! He went on and on about how I missed a parent teacher conference, completely forgetting that he made the time and I had the kids that night!!! I have never,ever missed a conference before and when we were married he would sometimes go and sometimes not. Then he went on to complain that his mother watched our youngest because I had to work last Sunday.
But wouldn't you think that picking up his son's respiratory med is more important than trying to stick it to me?

I feel your frustration. I guesst he best we can do is try to remember that the people we're dealing with are acting out of pain and not reason. It's hard not to be drawn in to that negativity, but try not to let it rule your day.
Peace,
