[quote=Anonymous]Ugg. I was there 5 years ago and it's really tough. I basically pretended she didn't exist. If my kid mentioned her, I would be pleasantly neutral-just nod and smile. I got a right of first refusal that includes her. So my kid was with me when my ex traveled for work, and has only in the past year spent a night alone with her. I said a hard no to her taking the kid to doctor's appointments, attending school events or parent/teacher conferences. I think my ex decided it wasn't worth fighting me on. It's a tough balance. I would say hold your boundaries, but never speak poorly of her and don't set up a situation where your kids feel like they can't talk about her. And for you, work on building the life you want for yourself and your kids.[/quote]
