HCBM signed SD for piano lessons on Tuesdays immediately after school. My partner (the dad) agreed to these lessons and would pay for them, but said that she needed to provide transportation, as dad has a work conflict at that time. Both parents agree in writing via text!
The night before the first lesson, the whole situation falls a part because of HCBM.... She wants Dad to send money for lesson to HCBM's new boyfriend via venmo. Dad says no, he'll give money to HCBM or the music school directly. HCBM then says that since this piano lesson falls on his custody time, he needs to provide transportation.
So essentially, she has manipulated the situation where she wants the dad to either 1) pay for these lessons with no way of getting SD to this class OR 2) be the bad guy and not sign up for the class.
Not the first time this has happened - but it's just such bad behavior. And there is something so suspicious about her wanting dad to pay the boyfriend. The classes are still unpaid for, it's not like it would be reimbursing him. So sketchy. And it's always drama about something the night before an event. Ridiculous
