[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 64172, member: 805"] Awwww....this is so sad. Some me just don't get it. When exbonehead and I first seperated, I would do everything I could to "cover" for his inadequacies - "he had a late business meeting", "it probably took longer to check on the apartment than he thought", etc. But about a year into it, I realized that I was not responsible for his relationship with his kids, he was! It was not my job to smooth over his boneheadedness. His kids would realize where his priorities were. I have since told the kids when they have asked where dad is or why he didn't do such and such to "call and ask him yourself". Oh, it still hurts to see your children sad and dissapointed but at least they blame him and not me. Hugs, Sharon [/QUOTE]
