How to handle a situation when your ex husband is asking your kids about your dating life? My seven year old son asked me who I had dinner with the other night after coming home from his dads, I asked him why he wanted to know and he said he would get a prize from dada if he told him. I am still upset by the fact my ex would put our children in the middle of this. My ex and I have a good relation in the sense we talk often about the kids. How do I handle this?
