BM is sad because I wouldnt bring the kids by her house before the first day of school

It's one day and it's important, I would have made the effort to take them there.

If it was so important she could have come to see them. None of the kids wanted to have to leave over an hour earlier than normal.

She doesn't have a car you said.

She should have made the effort. It's out of the way and would have required the kids get up at least an hour early. If she wanted to see the kids she should have gotten up early and driven to see them.

She doesn't have a car. She does not have that choice.

It is not that damn important. Kids have a first day of school every year. Its not a once in a lifetime event. If it was so important then why did mom not make the effort

Maybe not to you, but it is to her and to many other parents. The mom doesn't have a car, it isn't that simple for her.

There are other ways. If it was so important she should have made the effort.

Yes the f**k it is. She knew when the first day of school is. Its announced months in advance. She had plenty of time to arrange to see her kids on the first day of school without causing a scene with SM. This is on her and nobody else.

Friends, family, Uber, taxi, Lyft, bus

There were tons of ways for her to come see them. She didn't make an effort

She should have made an effort to see them the night before. Uber. Rode a bike. Begged a ride. Etc.

I don’t have time for anything extra in the morning. I can’t imagine crying over something like this.

...And what about the many, many parents who can not see the child off to the first day and not even due to divorce but they are already at work and the other parent/sitter/before care program takes them? Are you saying those parents are shit? I don't know a single couple who both takes off to watch their child year after year go to school.

Where did I say those parents are shit? I said that this is something that obviously means a lot to her, so I would make the effort. A little kindness goes a long way.
