Boyfriend's exw told him to wear a mask around the kids after being with me

[Anonymous]

I had to travel out of state to drop a kid off at college and my WORK is making me self-quarantine for two weeks because it was to an at-risk state. And we’re full time teleworking right now. So no the request is not unreasonable.

Mom is right. Mask up.

All she wants is for him to wear a mask? So easy!

He told you about her request?


That she made the request?

He's not complying. I am a mom of 3 kids and I share custody with exh. I wouldn't fathom of making a similar request. It's nutty and controlling.

Thank you! There's enough details in your post for a custody modification!

No, there is not.

But OP, I recommend myob. The ex is trying to exert control, but I’d leave it up to your bf to handle it however he sees fit.

no she’s not right, not unless she’s demanding the same of any other person in contact with the kids.

How will you feel if you end up covid positive and one of those kids suffers as a consequence?

Better safe than sorry. Don't be a selfish, immature brat. Err on the side of caution. It's not about you.

Parents are masking up around their kids for weeks on end because they were with people without masks?

I am an exw too. I get it. But this isn't about that. It's about her controlling/punishing him. (I know, because I am an exw.)

How long have you been seeing this man?
