[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's totally fine. You give up control when you divorce. You don't get to second-guess reasonable decisions or insist on parental care at all times.

OP, it sounds like you want your ex to have missed work out of some misguided notion of "fairness"-- "I used my annual leave so he should use his annual leave". That's nuts. If the child was safe, well cared-for, and reasonably happy (for a sick kid), then you have nothing to complain about.[/quote]

I'm stepmom, wondering if I did something wrong.  I wanted opinions not affected by stepmom dislike.  I had the ability to use leave, so I did. Now there's backlash.

Sorry OP. It was good of you to step in and I’m sorry for the backlash. But I suggest you let your DH handle it and focus on being a positive supporter. Also I hate to say it but make sure your DH isn’t actually dumping childcare on you! as many a biomom can attest, the DH claiming that “I have a meeting I can’t take sick leave” and making his job more important than yours is VERY COMMON.
