re: OT Lawyers a question about child custody

Its not my responsibility to notify their mother of her children's activities.

I agree if the other parent is a good parent. If she historically does not stay informed, for the sake of the children, I would gently remind her of things important to your children. Perhaps that could have made a difference here or even reminding your 12 year old to let his mother know without being negative about her.

Personally, I would not have told the child he could stay with you without consulting with the mother. You've given him an option he may not have. If he tells Mom, she's probably going to be angry. She doesn't sound too reasonable.
