He got on to Mini-Me for calling me and texting me everyday. Then he told me the biggest lie (because I KNOW Mini-Me would not tell him this stuff especially when I have never even asked about it): He basically said Mini-Me told him I ask her things about the going-ons of his life there, who pays for his youngest daughter's ballet lessons, and what type of clothes she wears. Excuse me, Mister Father-of-the-Year-in-Your-Own-Mind, but I don't give a shit about what your toddler does or doesn't do. My only concern are my girls. If my girls want to call or text me everyday while they are with you then they can. I'm sorry if you have made coming to your house for the summer very boring, a place where they can't be themselves because they'll get in trouble if they 'act up', or that they're terrified of talking to you about anything in their lives because of all your past reactions. If you hate me, dislike me, or whatever that's fine. But our girls are not me, so don't treat them like crap because I'm their mother.
I overheard him ask Mini-Me if she wanted to go home, because she was talking to me on the phone a second time today (he had told her she couldn't talk to me the 1st time & to call me later...which is what she did). She was very hurt. She called me after he left crying and wanting to come home. Unfortunately, she has to tough out the next 3 1/2 wks until we get there. She half doesn't want to come home either, because she doesn't want it to be like last summer where they came home about 3 or 4 weeks early. They were getting in trouble for every little thing. They ended up going home with me and my husband when we visited Vegas.
I don't think my ex gets it. Our girls asked their dad this summer if they can cut down the time from 7 weeks to 4 weeks because they have things they miss here during the summer (part of the real reason is was what happened last summer...they decided that 7 wks was just too long now. That they don't like going to his house for too long because of him). They're going to ask for less and less time, and when they're old enough, they might get to the point where they don't want to go at all. I don't want to see that happen. I want our girls to have a good relationship with their dad, but they don't. *Sigh* What can I do? I just have to sit back and let all of this stuff happen. I just hope he realizes what he's doing before it's too late.

Why does he have a problem with texting and calls? That doesn't make sense to me.
#1... Thank goodness you're not married to him anymore!!!
And #2: You are doing a wonderful job of supporting your daughters.
Man, what a bunch of crap to go through. Will he ever get it? Probably not.
It's never too late to start building a relationship but it takes time for acceptance I guess...
Honestly, for me, sounds like he is simply jealous of the relationship you have with the kids, and he doesnt...
in any case....Believe it or not, I have NEVER worn Members Only! ;-)
