XH's GF forcing DS to call her Mommy

I am LIVID! I don't know if she's even XH's girlfriend - she goes out on dates and has mentioned a sort-of-boyfriend, so maybe they're just sleeping together. Either way, they spend a lot of time together and she's often around when XH has DS.

I had to go pick DS up early at daycare because he's not feeling well. Several of his teachers approached me about how she's been acting around DS. She and XH were changing him before they left and didn't think anyone was around and she was seen bending over DS and saying "I'M Mommy!" and trying to get him to repeat it. He was obviously not happy about it.

Now he's getting really confused and calling everyone Mommy. He also seems very eager to get to daycare when XH drops him off and very loathe to leave with him, especially when he has her with him. When I drop him off, he still cries a bit and he's always happy to leave with me.

I am VERY concerned about this, especially since starting next week, XH will have him Monday-Thursday every week for six weeks because of my school. I'm going to talk to XH as soon as I can (who knows how long it will take to get him to come over here). I don't know if talking to him will change anything, because he's such a pushover that he might not say anything to her. I know I will if I see her. Is there anything else I can do or say to help DS and end this situation?

How horrible for your little one to have to go through.

THE TEACHERS have a responsibility to talk to you.... AND your EX about this.
