My Ex son in law acts exactly in the same way, promises things but they never happen.He told my 2 grandchildren that he would take them on holiday ,it lasted half a day and he brought them back. Two weeks later when the eldest rang him to tell him their GCSE results a woman answered and said 'oh he's outside playing with the children'. He had taken his lady friend and her children to Rhyl for a holiday He thinks that they both have an attitude because they won't accept the new family but as they both say they want to spend time with him not his lady friend so now hasn't he had any contact with them for 6 months He thinks the eldest should be working so he hasn't paid any maintainence for weeks So know I don't think you are being unreasonable Bren |

Hi Em I have very similar probs with my ex too. I have done everything that the professionals would class as 'right' for the children and most of the time it ends up being thrown in my face. I am fed up with all of it. Take care. Hugs to you both I know what you are going through and you are not wrong. Take care Tracy x |

Pig definately. What's more important an unrelated kid or his own daughter? His new 'relationship' won't last but his relationship with his own child/children should last until his death (onless he carries on like this). Jacquie |

Emma, you're right to be angry and he should be ashamed at letting your little one down. My ex son-in-law has similar horrible traits and I've told him it'll all come back to bite his b*m in the future - the kids won't want to know him....and it's already happening. Jan xx |

I have already added a thread totally agreeing with the anger 100% but can I just say that sometimes the boot is on the other foot my hubbys ex was great for ringing ten mins before he was due to collect the children and say oh something has come up, or we have got to go somewhere grrr. But I do totally agree with everything said on this thread, just thought the boys needed sticking up for. xxhugxx |

It's not just fathers, when I was 9 back in the 50's come home from school and my mother had left, did not see her for 5 yrs. eventually had some sort of relationship and when I was 17 she bought me a car for £100. Later in life at the age of 50 I asked her why she left me, all she said was 'well I did bye you a car' didn't seem to get the plot that I would rather have had her. Carol |
