Co-parenting arrangements can be challenging, especially when communication falters.
One man finds himself constantly dealing with his ex’s inability to keep track of their custody schedule, leading to frequent frustration and misunderstandings.
Is it time for his ex to take responsibility for her own forgetfulness, or should he keep reminding her?
Read on for the full story.
Aitah for not reminding my baby momma that it’s her day to pick up the child and her missing it?
I (29M) keep getting yelled at by my ex (30F) because I never remind her when it’s her day to pick up our child.
We have 80/20 custody.
His ex has repeatedly fallen short of her commitments.
She’s supposed to pick up our child (2F) every other Wednesday in addition to her weekend.
But she hasn’t picked up our daughter one Wednesday since it was implemented into the custody agreement.
Somehow, he’s still the one taking the blame.
She always ends up yelling at me that I need to remind her which Wednesday is hers and then trying to reschedule.
(She never shows up to the rescheduled day either.)
AITA?
He’s done more than his part, yet his ex still keeps piling on more responsibility. What does Reddit have to say?
To this commenter, it’s abundantly clear where the blame lies.
Successful parenting takes accountability, not hand holding.
If this mother can’t overcome her shortcomings, a court will have to hear about this.
It’s high time this mom get her act cleaned up.
When it comes to coparenting, it takes two to tango.
