brokenhearted1971 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Wife and I have separated since End of August. She made me leave the house. We didn't spend the holidays together aside from some hours Xmas eve at my Mom's. Friday is her birthday, and she wants me to watch our son, while she goes out and has a great time..... I can work Friday nights which pays good...but should I watch our son for her, or make money? Link to post Share on other sites
RightThere Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I always take my daughter when I have the opportunity. I don't want her to ever think she's anything less than a #1 priority with me. Sounds to me like this is more of a one-off (birthday) versus an every week type of occurrence. I would help your STBXW out and take your son. Plan something fun. Even if you hate your STBXW's guts, it seems like a "win-win" for you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author brokenhearted1971 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Any suggestions on what to do on a Friday night with my son? Link to post Share on other sites
RightThere Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 How old? Maybe hit a rec centre (swimming pool) or any community centre often has activities. Hit the park, go for a little bike ride, see a movie. I started taking my daughter to the library. Let her pick some books then we've got good bedtime reading. Plan a dinner that he can help you prep and cook. Just don't sit infront of the TV all night with him. Get out and find something in your area. Link to post Share on other sites

Natola Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Take him to see the brand new movie Nut Job in 3D. I saw it last weekend and it was really cute. Link to post Share on other sites
