@maxx, yes at first he cried then he stopped for a few months. Now has started back up again. So not sure what has happened to make it start again

@maxx its frustrating bc she used to love me and act like i could save her from going back to her moms (going back to her moms is a horrible fight with her. Like kicking and screaming tantrum) and i felt so loved. Now at 3yrs old shes said that mommy told her to be mean to me so she treats me like crap. I cant hug hubby or hold his hand without the "Wahhh" or a screaming fit

@danad269 my daughter usually wants to go to her daddy's. At one time she didn't but she's gotten used to the routine. But it did break my heart when she would cry and say "I want mama" every time I gave her to him.

@kariannemarie my daughter has started doing that waahh thing too. She if I get onto her or spank her or put her in time out she tries to get onto me by saying "you HURT me" and acts like time out is just torture and doesn't seem to learn from it much.

My step daughter is opposite. Shes awful when she comes back from her moms. Has even started SAYING "Wahhhh" when she doesnt get what she wants

My son crys and runs from the door when his dad comes, told him twice now me stay w mommy!! Breaks my heart. Then when I go to get them they both in crappy moods for the night like they are mad at me for sending them. My daughter tonight cried herself to sleep cuz I didn't have time to lay w her. My son followed me around house crying, but was mean at same time. If I tried holding him he would push me away

Happens to me everytime my daughter gets home from her dads and cries that she wants her dad the next day she’s all over me and says how she doesn’t want to go to her dads

Being the child of separated parents myself, I recall doing the same thing (not sure why) but as I got older and realized how much my mom has sacrificed for me it made me wonder why I was always such a daddy’s girl even though he was never around. I think it might’ve just been the fact that I saw him a couple times a month that made me miss him so much. But like I said, when I got older I️ realized that I’m definitely a mamas girl.

It's like that with all kids who have parents in seperate homes, I've found. You have the disciplined parent who lays down the rules, and the "fun" parent who doesn't want to enforce rules because they want to woo the kids to their side and voila....you have the kids that think you're a meanie and daddy is awesome. Same here, but vice versa. 😒
