There are teacher's meetings with the parents tomorrow night.

I gave WH the time to go if he was interested. He said he thought we could go together. I said I didn't think that was right. If he doesn't want me in his life, why should we go together and act like we are? He said because of the kids. I said no, it's just not right, I will go alone. He wasn't pleased.

Did I do the right thing? I'm in Plan B, but I know discussions are allowed for the kids. We don't have an intermediary.

I think it is probably better NOT to go together. When I was in Plan B, my WH used any excuse to talk to me, and then he would talk about OTHER things. It happened over and over, and is hard to avoid.

catgirl, Plan B means no contact at all. Talking about the kids defeats the purpose.

I do not plan on going with WH. I will probably see him there however if he chooses to go, but plan on avoiding him.

When I talked to Steve, he thought that considering the problems we are having with DS adjusting to it all, it is best to keep WH informed as to what it going on DS's life, thus I had to tell him about the teacher's meeting.


I do not talk/see WH any other time.

That statement, when spoken to a WS, is not Plan B
