Renee Hodges+FollowEx Wants Daycare Split—But Didn’t Even Ask!Imagine your ex putting your kid in daycare on his custody days—when you’re literally off work and could’ve watched her—then asking you to pay half the bill! That’s exactly what happened to one mom on Reddit. Most people agreed: if he didn’t bother to coordinate or follow the custody agreement, she shouldn’t have to cough up a dime. Co-parenting is hard enough without surprise invoices! Would you pay or stand your ground? #Relationships #ParentingDrama #CoParenting01Share
Joshua Freeman+FollowChild support drama: When new families collideWhen an ex-husband starts a new family and wants to lower his child support, things can get tense fast. One mom shared how her ex, now remarried with more kids, tried to cut support payments, arguing his growing household needed the money. But she stood firm, reminding everyone that child support is for the original kids—not to cover his new responsibilities. The situation hit a boiling point when the new wife asked her to consider their financial struggles. It’s a tough spot: Should the original family’s stability be affected by an ex’s new choices? Where do you draw the line in blended family finances? #Relationships #ChildSupport #CoParenting01Share
QuartzPhoenix+FollowMy Ex’s Girlfriend Ruined Our Family Weekend! 😱Ever feel like co-parenting is just a wild ride you never signed up for? That’s exactly where I am right now. My 4-year-old daughter and I have always been a team, but suddenly her dad—who’s usually MIA—decides he wants to play the hero. No real talks, no plans, just chaos. Last weekend was supposed to be special—my mom’s birthday, family gathered at our place in Chicago. Her dad promised to drop her off by noon, but they didn’t show up until after dinner. I called, I texted—nothing. When my daughter finally came home, she was teary-eyed and told me her dad’s girlfriend chased her up the stairs, yelling. My heart broke. How do you trust someone who’s never been reliable, but now wants to call the shots? I’m torn between protecting my little girl and being forced to share her. Has anyone else survived this kind of family drama? Please, share your stories—I could really use some advice and support right now. 💬 #coparenting #familydrama #parentingstruggles #FamilyRelationships8919Share
CharismaChameleon+FollowEx's Girlfriend Carousel Is Traumatizing My Kid! 😱💔Y'all, I'm at my wit's end here in Phoenix! My ex-husband cheated, we divorced in January, and now he's already parading girlfriend number THREE around my 8-year-old. 😤 Our oldest son (12) refuses to see his dad anymore, but my youngest still does weekend visits. Now this man wants to introduce her to his latest fling AND her three kids because they're all moving in together! Three different women in ten months - seriously?! 🤯 I feel like I'm constantly explaining to my baby why Daddy has another "special friend." It's breaking my heart watching her confusion every time someone new shows up. Am I crazy for thinking this is too much chaos for a little girl? Please tell me I'm not the only mama dealing with this mess! 💕 #CoParenting #BlendedFamilies #FamilyDrama #FamilyRelationships367Share
