[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All decisions for children should be discussed with both parents.  Camps, school, money, etc.  If I signed up my kids for a camp without telling my spouse...that wouldn't go over well.  It's just respect.  Even if it's just an FYI.  The people saying it's no big deal are not thinking straight.  You don't open a bank account without telling your spouse.  That's fishy.[/quote]

Give me a break.  My DH has absolutely no interest in knowing what camps the kids go to.  If you discuss that level of detail with your spouse that’s fine, but it certainly isn’t the norm in our circle of friends.  If we discussed the minutiae of the kids’ activities we would have no time to discuss anything else.  [/quote]

Exactly. I can’t imagine having discussions about camps. Heck I’m not sure  we even talk about what schools our kids are going to go to. [/quote]

If that’s the case then you aren’t very involved in your kid’s lives. Which is fine. To each their own. But, no parent should sign legal documents on their child’s behalf without the other parent knowing. That’s messed up.
