Hi Spedteacher,
For what it's worth, my A also uses the excuse of "well i might as well do what i want, since you will just be mad at me anyway." Oh man, I get so tired of it....so I know how this feels. Another great one is he will tell me he will watch the kids, and usually this is while i am at work, I don't even go out, but then he will tell me he is going to this certain friends house who is a big time drug addict. He knows I do not want the kids hanging out over there, and he knows I will say never mind and find someone else. He counts on it in fact. I think it's just a game they play so they can say well i told you i would take care of the kids. Its crazy.
I would say also to just make other plans and carry them out. Don't even say anything about it to the AH. Just know you can't count on him or depend on him. I know it's hard, you feel like he should take responsibility for your son like you do, but it most likely won't happen as long as their is alcohol being served somewhere in town. At least that is how it is here.
Good Luck to you....
