If anyone has read a couple of my past discussions, I've spoken about my boyfriend's daughter's mother and how I think that she is very inconsiderate considering the things she has done in the past. Well last night after not speaking or talking to his daughter for about a good month, out the blue his ex- girlfriend calls and puts his daughter on the phone who says that she wants to spend fall break with us which just happened to start that night. Mind you it's Wednesday night we were ready for bed and both of us work Monday through Friday and get up at 6 am, which meant she would be home alone on Thursday and Friday. Our phone service is not on at the moment and she has an illness that sometimes puts her in the hospital. I myself did not feel comfortable with her being there by herself all day with no one if something went wrong. Of course, my boyfriend is just so happy to see her that he lets his ex- girlfriend take advantage of him. Well, I told him that I thought she should wait until the weekend when we would be home with her and have some more groceries in the house for her. I try not to get involved normally because I know that is their child, but I feel like I have a right to say something when it is affecting me. Do you think I was right to tell him to have her wait until the weekend or should I just keep my mouth shut?

Of course you were right to speak up. It isn't safe for her to be home alone. Anything could happen. And if something did happen , you would never forgive yourself. and with her coming on the weekend, her dad and yo would have more time to spend with her.

I think it makes perfect sense that the daughter not be left home by herself during the days you will not be homes since she has health issues. I think you have every right to voice your opinion as long as you make sure that he has the final say in what is going on since it is not your child it is his.

thank you for your response. She did end up staying with us for the weekend and was not at home alone. I just wasn't brought up to have kids home until a certain age, and she's a different case because she's ill at times. Thank you so much for your advice.
