Anyone who does anything to involve their children in a divorce or separation is a peice of shite. The kids will eventually grow up and realize they are being manipulated.

well that is my take that it would hurt the kids.
It absolutely does.. It pits the kids against the parents and it doesn't work out well.. If the kids feel they're in direct harm sure, but having them report on daily activities avoid that shite at all cost...

Are they spying for the Chinese? Seperate them and put them in isolations cells then interrogate them… this is elementary spy stuff 101 chap

Need photos of your ex-wife to give a fair assessment.

What type of secrets would you expect your kids to keep from your ex?

My mom would pry me for information about my Dad, his expenditures, girlfriends, etc.
So, if this is what you mean by using your kid as a spy, then to answer your question; it sucks. It’s horrible parenting to insert your children into drama with their other parent.

Anyone using their kids to keep tabs on their ex is a huge POS. I'm sure it happens all the time, but have only heard about it with one couple that I know and both parents are, or were when I knew them, trash people. And not surprisingly, their kids have suffered as a result of their shitty parenting. Just heard the oldest kid failed 6th grade.

What kinds of things is the child expected to report?
I’m out of this phase since my stepdaughter is nearly an adult, but I was always very clear to her that nothing that happens at our house is secret. She can choose what she wants to share, but there’s nothing she needs to feel like she can’t tell her mom. This was prompted by her mom making it clear that she couldn’t talk about her life at mom’s while at our house (like telling her to lie when they moved). We never pushed her for details, and let her share what she wants. Her mom is a good, loving parent apart from the type of shite mentioned above, so there’s no reason for us to pry in her life.
That said, it created a crappy dynamic where she has two very distinct, independent lives that don’t overlap and she doesn’t feel comfortable telling the other parent about anything—good or bad—that happens at the other house.

I've replaced my children's eyes with cameras and their ears with recording dishes.

anyone putting kids in the middle of adult issues are pieces of shite.
With that said, the only place I can see it as being useful, is if one parent is abusive, with abusive people, or the other parent is doing things that are putting the kids at risk to be harmed.

If they're legally separated, does it matter? You can bang all sorts of poon while waiting on your divorce to be finalized in Texas.

Using kids fo any purpose is despicable. Childhoood is fleeting….

Look, I don't give a crap. The question was what would they report on.
I'm not a psycho and get along great with my ex wife. Work together and I've seldom had an issue with her.
But I also know of psychos, usually controlling ones, that will seize on any behavior they don't approve of, legal or not.

If the dumb sack of washers understands that what daddy does after filing (short of beating or starving the kids) won't impact how much money she gets from him, or how she can limit custody, maybe she'll cease and desist being a deplorable human being and using the kids for her nefarious activities.
The alternative is a Faraday bag for his kids' phones whenever they come over.
