he thinks he's making me look bad

Our son is sick. Personally I think it's nothing more than a cold. I could be wrong. I'm not a doctor. My ex picks him up from school on Tuesdays and I told him that he was still grouchy and probably not feeling great when he called this morning. He said "well I'm going to call the doctor and get an appointment for when he gets out of school". Well I beat him to it, calling the doctor that is, and then when he called, I guess they'd told him I'd already called. He told them, that the only reason I was calling was to save face, and that he was in HIS custody today and to please have the nurse call HIM back first (Which they did, because when the nurse called me she informed me that she's already spoken with dad and they already had an appointment). Now I'm glad that he's going to the doctor, especially if there is something seriously wrong. However, if they just tell him that he has a cold, I'm going to be really mad, because of course I'm the one that's paying for the doctor visits. And, for the record, Tuesday isn't his court appointed day. I just let him have him on Tuesdays out of the kindness of my heart. I know it's all about the best interest of our son, but it pisses me off that he told the doctor that. He told me he didn't have to call me at all to let me know that he was taking him to the doctor. Yum, yes, you do, especially if she gives you a prescription, since it's ME that has the insurance.

Well, by calling and saying what he said to them.... he's the one that's lookin' like an irrational, hard to get along with, idiot.

My husband does the same thing... my daughter has a cough that comes and goes...like since last march when she went to school. It's nothing. I took her the doctor like amillion times and he said its due to difference in temperature, and maybe a little bit of allergies. Every time he has her, he has to make a comment to me about taking her to the doctor. He even says things to her...it's so annoying. Just let it slide. He is just trying to justify himself to himself. I don't really thing that the doctor ( considering you have probably ALWAYS been the one to take your child) really thinks twice about what he said.
