What is it about divorce, and I don't care what religion you are, that brings out the worst in everyones behavior. Divorcing is bad enough but then you add the new spouses and the powder keg erupts.
Today the argument is over mundane stupid things that mean nothing in the grand scheme of it all. Why not argue the real points instead of taking all these useless ones that have nothing to do with the real issue. We used to call these arguments 'The color of Snot" because there was this one time when Derek and his best friend, they were 4 at the time, got into a huge argument over the color of snot during a cold or something like that. They fought for hours, they almost came to blows all over the color of something so gross!
So yeah, argue over pennies, timing of drop offs and pick ups or just shut up and get along because hey, what's more healthy for the kids. The best advise is sometimes the hardest to take. I usually have to call uncle for this to stop. In my new found life boundaries can even been drawn. Respecting them is a whole other matter.
