I have cell phones for 2 of my children and myself. I purchased these phones in order to keep my exhusband's cell bill low because of our talking to each other. So about 2 weeks ago my youngest daughter was grounded and her father took her phone. I would try to call her and her phone would be off, so I would send him a text message to give our daughters phone back because I was trying to call her.
This past Monday, I get a call from my daughter saying to stop texting her dad and that he was getting mad. She said she didn't like it. I informed her that this subject was between her father and I. She told me that her dad was not a messenger. Of course I tried to tell her that him being a parent didn't mean that he was a messenger and that as a parent he could give her the message that I was trying to get in touch with her. It was awful and she ended up hanging up on me.
On Tuesday she called me again and wanted to talk about the previous night. I told her to let me finish what I was doing and in one minute or so I would go to where it was quite so I could talk to her. She didn't want to wait. I told her that I had to finish what I was doing so that I could talk to her. In like 2 minutes I tried calling her back and she didn't answer. For almost 2 hours I tried to call and her phone was either off or it went to her voicemail.
On Wednesday she called me again. The conversation was good at first. But she was asking me if I still worked at the insurance agency. I told her no. Then she asked me how I was paying my bills. I told her that was my concern and for her not to worry about it. She also asked about me paying my child support. I told her that I was and of course she wanted to know how. Again, I had to tell her that was my concern.
When she called me back, she started in on the issue with me texting her father. I told her again that this was between him and I. She said it was between me, her and her father. She kept trying to argue with me. At one point we were talking about her and her respect for me and how old she was. I told her that I don't care how old she is and that it was not the point of our conversation. She then accused me of not caring about her.
I was hung up on again. Also, I heard her dad and stepmom right there next to her while she was talking to me. I will post more later.
