Trying to be even with your Ex

• Do you get  a new car when you find out your ex gets a new car
  • Vacationing equity
  • Moving to a new house
  • New Car
  • Parties for the kids
  • Kids friend over
• Time helps with not feeling like keeping up. Most of the time
• Remind yourself that the kids are the important thing.
• Don't try to keep up with your Ex.
• We might not enjoy doing something you might want to do it when you hear the Ex is doing with the kids.
• Celebrate the kids having opportunities to do more things than they would with just you.

Kids wanting things even

• Recently our 15 years old said. I always miss out when you do things.
• Sometimes kids don't have the opportunity that their step-siblings have because things are different at different houses. Like Sailing
• Stop doing things just because we don't have all of the kids.
• Sometime when the kids do something with their mom, we want to do the same thing with Sam. Keeping things even.
  • Watching TV shows together. Do we wait to do it with all of the kids?
  • Movies, Do you change your plans because they already have plans with their Mom.
• Try to make things even between the two houses for the kids?
  • Pumpkin patch
  • Hikes
  • Birthday parties
• Double the chores at two houses. But Sam only has one house to do chores.
  • How do you make it even? 
• Life is not fair
