Like I said I can go days w/out thinking about Ex.

Let me tell you something, your ex can't hold a CANDLE to mine. She beat the children to the point that CPS took them from her. She CONTINUES to emotionally abuse them. But that is just who she IS, and I realized, a LONG time ago, that I cannot change her, I can only control my reactions to her.
You are not doing what is best for your son, you are still trying to make him PAY for not being a good husband, or at LEAST, as "nice" of an ex as your first ex.'
Consider that the reason the kid wants to stay with you and not Dad is because Dad has RULES. You know, NOT having rules in not a GOOD thing.

I wasn't referring to you going specific time periods without thinking about your ex, if that satisfies you, then I'm sure you're happy. I can think about my hubby's ex whenever I want without reverting back to the days when she treated my husband like crap. It is a nice place to be. Where I don't get angry or think terrible things like I wouldn't spit on her if she was on fire. If she was on fire, I'd put it out. If you'd rather watch your ex burn, you're not as far as your could be CJ.

Well said - I have seen the result of the NOT having rules in one household and that is the reason that my stepkids are not very good functioning adults.

I don't see the language from CJane's CO anywhere in this thread. But, under either my CO or my SO's CO - this would be the NCP's parenting time.
In our orders, if school is not in session on the Friday preceeding or the Monday following the NCP's weekend - that time is included with the weekend. So if the weekend normally ends at 8am Monday morning and there is no school on Monday -the weekend ends at 8am on Tuesday.
