Dafuq?

He can leave the tv with you at your drop-off location. That’s it. He can take it or leave it.

Maybe he's trying to find probable cause to take your son away from you.

I find it odd as well. I'm not sure of his intentions, but I know it's more than mounting a TV. - OP

Or he wants to put spyware camera into your home.

“Thank you for buying a tv for DS. But I can figure out a way to mount it without you.”

If he throws a fit, you say “then you get to tell son he doesn’t get a tv. “

I totally thought about spyware! Smh.

OP you won by getting rid of this guy. Good thing your kids a teen, so contact with your ex will become more limited soon.

Your home your rules.
One email and that’s it.
If he persists start communicating through your lawyers.

Your home your rules. I will not let my kids have a tv in their room and would view this as an attempt to make you look bad and control your home rules.

Did he mention this to your son, prior to telling you?

No tv in kids bedrooms,

Who knows? Don't trust him.

I've been divorced for a little over a year. My ex-husband cheated/left for OP who he is still with, and now every month he thinks of some dumb reason to reach out to me. Sometimes he sorta nice, sometimes he angry and gruff. I really don't care about his mood because I'm over him, but it's annoying. Like, go play with your side chick and leave me alone! We have a place where we meet for visitation drop-offs because he absolutely refuses to drive our son home after visitation. It's been like this for the past 3+ years since he left. He insists that I meet him when it's a huge inconvenience to me since our child is a teen and can let himself in once he's dropped.

Now suddenly out of the blue he wants to buy our son a new TV and come to our house to mount it in our son's room. Why?!?! He hasn't been in my home since he got an appraisal done on it during our divorce over two years ago. Since he left, he has barely had visitation with our son and went almost a year without seeing him at all. Is this guilt?? Wth??
