“I have been single for exactly 9 years and co-parenting with my ex-husband hasn’t been all bed of roses for us.
Even if we are no longer living in the same country I still do well to perform my right duties and what is expected of a single mother and a woman with kids.
Also, he does the same duties and fatherly rights for our children. If in all of this you still choose to be insensitive please don’t bring it here henceforth I won’t tolerate anyone interfering in my private life.
