Hope4thefuture Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I am not talking about the typical stereotype where he is rougher than I am or things like that. Unfortunately, at his house they have a different set rules. They can go to bed later. They can hit each other. They can say bad words. At my house they go to bed earlier, they are not encouraged to hit, and they have to watch what they say. It is to the point that they prefer to be there instead. They are angry when they come back to me. I understand having different expectations and rules are difficult. What should I do? Link to post Share on other sites
RightThere Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I would have a discussion with your ex about it. It's possible you're only getting the kid's side of the story. It's tough when the parents are not on the same page, but try (in a non-confrontational way) see if you can set some common rules with your ex about what is and isn't allowed at both houses.

Author Hope4thefuture Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Thanks Right There. I have tried to talk to him a couple of times. One time he just laughed. I notice the anger and have asked about that too. His response was that he doesn't see that with him. I hope I wasn't being confrontational but who knows. I will try to discuss my concerns again. I appreciate the advice. Link to post Share on other sites
