I’m just so frustrated. Even after gaining shared care over 2.5 years ago for my son I find the ‘communication book’ still very annoying. It’s a platform for my ex to find fault/nit pick at things (whether true or not). I don’t really respond back now, for my own sanity! Further more I can’t stand seeing my ex’s lying ‘butter wouldn’t melt’ face at handovers! Luckily my 4 year old son and I have a great relationship. Any tips to ‘get over’ these frustrations?
court had us using contact book. I found it useless, and my ex also stopped using it. I get whatsapp message instead, and try ignore petty complaints.
Can you just stop using the the book even if the court order requires it?
@introverteddad if both parents dump it, then not much of an issue.

Fair enough.
