Babysitting DS & his little sis?

twister22

BD picked up DS for the weekend this afternoon, and then asked me to babysit DS(4.5) and his DD(2) tomorrow evening so he can take his new GF out on a date.

Yeah...

(For those who don't know, he is the NCP with both kids and has them EOWE.)

Wow.  Don't even know what to say to that and would prob be hard for me to not have given a sarcastic response.  SO and I have LO 50/50 and we still don't go out without her anytime she is here because she is young and also we want to spend as much time with her etc.  I'd totally judge a guy who would wanna go on a date with me one of the few days he got his kids.  Bleck

What did you say? I hope you told him that he sees them for two day EOWE and he needs to see them!

Wow! That's really all I can say

Sorry I posted & ran! I said I needed to talk to DH, just because I was so shocked. Today he texted asking if I could, and I said no. He said "Well crap." I asked him what his plan was for the evening, and he called me. He asked if a friend of his, we'll call her T, could watch DS and his DD. I suggested I just pick DS up for the evening since BD planned to be out until 2 or 3 a.m. and would likely not want to get up for church.

So their plan for tonight is for BD, DS, BD's DD, GF, GF's 2 kids, T, T's husband, and T's two kids are all going to the drive in tonight. I'll pick DS up after the movie's over. I have no idea what the GF's doing with her kids.

I just don't understand BD's priorities. At all.

I believe a popular term around TB is "douche canoe?"

Jesus. I'm surprised they did not include her kids in the mix.

Wow.  Just, wow....

BD needs to get his priorities straight.  I get it, he was having a difficult time trying to sort things out with his ex so that he could see his DD.  But to turn around and ask you to "babysit" is so screwed up.  First of all it's not "babysitting" when it's your child, it's called parenting and why on Earth would he even feel comfortable asking you to watch his DD?  Doesn't he think that hi ex would flip out a wee bit if she found out you were watching her child?  Does he have some sort of addiction to drama?  Secondly, BD knows his schedule.  He knows when he has his children and when he doesn't.  Plan a grown up date when you don't have your kids d-bag, and plan a kid-friendly outing when you have them.

I'm so annoyed for you.

I agree that BD is sad, and I'm glad you are getting DS for the night.  

That said: this made me laugh out loud in my cube.  I don't know the story behind it, but it's just plain funny.

I'm pretty sure I've got the term "douchecanoe" on lock down.  Last time I checked "douche lord" and "douche nozzle" are still available...

BAHAHAHAHAHA this is great. What a piece of work. Who plans a date on their parenting time?! I wouldn't have been able to stop from being sarcastic when he asked.

@jobalchak sh!t gets even crazier - XGF/BM2 tried to include in their CO that she had to approve all babysitters, and she gave the list of 3 that she currently approved of - BD's mom, BD's sister, and.... wait for it..... me. Yep. WTF.

Oh.  Hell.  No.  I can't even imagine if DH and I were to split up, allowing K's mother to watch PJ.  No way.
