divorced w/2 kids and would like to go out of town but earliest flight back would mean kids need to come home 2hrs later than usual...he has refused to take holidays before saying that he won't know where I've gone or who I'm with which I don't think should be much of his concern. I always have my cell phone if something comes up. I'm not sure how to handle this.

seems I need to clarify that he will have the kids that wknd. I have no problem giving him a hotel number even, the problem I have is how to ask him to bring them home 2hrs later b/c he has refused extra time w/the kids in the past so that I would not be able to have personal time.

Tell him it is no longer his business what you are doing and who you are doing it with as long as the children are always well taken care of. If he can't take them, or won't, then hire a baby sitter or try asking family. You owe nothing to your ex now.

Okay, I understand where you are coming from on this, however, they are his kids too. And their safety is his concern. So, if you are going out of town, you can let him know where you will be-unless he has a way of stalking you, been abusive, etc., there is no reason not to give him information. As long as he does the same for you if he were to take the kids out of town on a weekend or something like that. You could tell him you are going with a friend of yours-he doesn't have to know who neccesarily, but if there are any other kids going along etc. would be ok. Take care.

Leave the cell phone and go. It's none of his business. So the kids will be a little late, not really the end of the world now is it? Go and have fun...

strange, only u would keep it personal as long as u can but theres always other people who will not keep this to themselves and i always dont understand why, like ur marriage was always their business, someone is most likely to always remind u of da scars if not ur children. ur children will always be a part of this mess like they asked for it, they should not be even put through times like these.
