[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guys, I think you need to dial back the outrage about the husband. It's perfectly reasonable for the DH to be mad. OP didn't say the DH was screaming at the 3 year old. I imagine she set up the kids in with activities and they had a gritted teeth discussion in the kitchen in which DH expressed his completely natural anger and frustration at this situation.

As, OP pointed out, it calls into question how child care arrangements are handled when her child is over with the dad. You can feel both sorry for the 3 year old AND angry at the loser dad at the same time.[/quote]

Thank you! Op here. My husband was not home at the time, I was on the phone with him when the door bell rang, so he knew what was going on. The first thing he asked was if the kids were okay. Then he got furious with my ex, especially for the fact that he's likely pulling this kind of thing when my child is with him. Just like some of the pps, he was afraid of the implications of me having a child in my house under these circumstances and wanted me to call the non-emergency police number. 
I know some of you are trying to make this about his 3 year old. Trust me, the child was fine, well treated and had fun while here. 
This is not what this is about. This is about my ex having the balls of dropping these kids off when visitation with my child is already on rocky terms and we don't have a friendly relationship at all (mostly because he's crazy and unreliable.) the visitation weekend he had before this was canceled by him, like many others. 
The one before that he was threatening to come by with the police just because I said I didn't think it was a good idea for my child to go that weekend, things were very bad with the anxiety issues and I thought it would make it worse, so I suggested visitation taking place around my house (he lives 2h away.)
So all things considered, I think my husband had a very normal reaction and those of you that think he would be mistreating a child because he was furious at what my ex did are a little out of line. I was fuming and that child will never know. 
On the lawyer, I got an out of the office auto email reply saying she'll be back tomorrow. We'll see.
