[QUOTE="ATaLOSS, post: 315327"] MattsMom- it is terrible, isn't it? You and I are in similar situations- the ex's wife treats our children well so we are grateful- cuz honestly, if they treated them terribly, there's not much we could do about it. This is the reality, and the alternative situation would be even more gut wrenching. If I thought for one minute my child was being treated badly by 'her' I'd be on their front door step and undoubtedly would come home with a hand full of brown hair (she's a brunette! lol!) However, it is almost an equal crime for them (ex's and 2nd choices) to deny these children their heros. Our children don't recognize it now, and there is a part of me that hopes mine never does- that would be a reality that would take away from his perception of part of his world. The other part of me knows, however, that our children will come into their own and will realize how unfair things were. So..... I document, if for no other reason, to reassure myself that I called- daily.- and in your case, that you cancelled for very real, legitimate, medical reasons. You are putting your daughter first- putting her in a place where she can be a child, rather than a caretaker. That is very selfless of you and I commend you. Make the best memories you can for you and your daughter while you are well - these will be her most vivid memories. [/QUOTE]
