Stbxh and I do 50/50.
The boys can be so difficult when I pick them up - it takes a day or two for them to get back to 'normal' - then it's more or less time for them to go again.
DS1 in particular comes back full of himself. His dad is a bit of a pompous arse, tbh, and ds comes back sounding just like him. He gives me a hard time from getting into the car. I feel sad because I miss them so much when they're not with me, and then it's often very hard work when they are :(
They are clearly given few boundaries at their dad's, so they expect to do little housework, be on the internet with no time limits, they swear more, etc.
They are 14 and 16, so not little.
How do I deal with this?
