Wow, this seems to be a topic that's cut.
Think of this,
he is her new husband.
when your child gets older, you will want to go to soccer games, school conferences, etc. oftentimes that is easier if your ex cooperates.
If you can get along now with new husband--meaning be civil. it is more likely those future events will be easier for everyone involved-especially your child.
If new husband thinks you're being an < hindquarters > now, just you wait.
and there is no way that in the future you will not need a favor also.
There has been occassions where my ex has dropped off when only my husband is home-i was running late and would be there in 5 minutes. ex lives on other side of town (30 minute drive), it would be ridiculous for him to drive back home, then i come get her. Not to mention how confused my daughter would be.
I will suggest this if it still bothers you, ask new husband where your ex is.
If she won't be home all day, i understand saying she can pick her up later.
if she's gonna be home in an hour-there is no excuse not to leave her.
and if new husband doesn't answer-it's none of your business anyway and leave daughter.
but if he answers, odds are he's an ok guy, and you needn't worry so much
