[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me start by saying I have a good (not great but good and manageable) co parenting relationship with EX. We have worked hard and we get along.  He has been seeing someone for maybe 2 years...kids have known about 10 months or so.  She is very nice. Most importantly she treats my kids well and I am so appreciative and thankful.  She even took my oldest (12) shopping for summer clothes. There were maybe 4 items in questions that I wouldn't allow DD to wear. Im partly mad at DD because she KNEW those shorts and shirts in question would be a hard and fast no.  I want her to return them but I also don't know if I should rock the boat. GF is younger and cooler and I know that appeals to my kids...my girls especially. I get it.  But I also don't want her wearing booty shorts and crop tops.  I don't want to bring it up to EX and put him in the middle either. I was thinking of just texting her...thanking her...and asking if its ok to exchange the few items I don't think fit well??? Ugh I dunno. Maybe just drop it and put those clothes away out of mind and out of sight??  Now my 11 year is BEGGING to go shopping and hopes her trip is next weekend. I feel like I want to lay some ground rules down??? I don't know how I don't come across like an old bitch though! Ugh!!!![/quote]

If I were you I wouldn't bring up the conversation with the Ex or the girlfriend.    Tell the daughter that she is not allowed to wear the clothes when she is in your care.  Maybe ask the daughter why she bought it in the first place.  Was she feeling pressured by the cool girlfriend?  If so, than she doesn't have to wear them.  However, if she likes it than you may have to let it go and let her wear it at the ex's house.  Maybe you can talk to her why you don't like the clothes and then maybe she will respect your wishes.

But, it will only end badly if you complain to Ex or girlfriend.   You will be labeled the old bitch, if that matters to you.

Good luck![/quote]
