Is there anything harder than coparenting with an ex? He leaves it for me to take our daughter to the psychiatrist and schedule therapy and a neuropsychological evaluation for her learning disability, tells me he's been saying for YEARS that she has a learning disability but then every time they try to prescribe ritalin or have her in regular counseling he complains that *I'm* trying to drug her into being a zombie and make her miss school for all these doctor appointments when all she needs is to be yelled at and brow beaten in order for her brain to focus. If he thinks I'm manipulating the doctor why doesn't he fucking come along for the fucking visit and discuss this with the doctor?
And furthermore that it's some sort of liberal conspiracy to undermine the school system (which is run by liberals anyway so omg I must be a self-despising liberal) by feeling that it's okay for her to miss 90 minutes of school once or twice a month to go to therapy because MAYBE, JUST MAYBE the therapy will offer her more than what she's missing out on sitting in school. And perhaps if he'd be willing to put himself out and shut off the fucking TV while she's doing her homework that maybe that would be a teeny tiny start in allowing her to focus on learning instead of him learning new tricks from Bill O'Reilly on how to froth at the mouth and spin your head like an uneducated moron who believes that you don't have to be right you just have to yell the loudest and make the most accusations?
I'm so fucking tired of this. So. fucking. tired.
