I definitely ask, not for permission because he’d never say no but it’s just a courtesy. There’s shifts and childcare to move around, I can just say bye and disappear for a few days.
I just let him know well in advance plus 2000 reminders😒😒😒
I’m not sure I do ask. I’ve said I’m thinking of taking the kids to see my mum on this date for about a week and can you take me to the train station. That said he’s been invited to his friends 50fh and didn’t really ask either just said he’s kind of got to go…he hates going out. It’s different if it’s not with the kids but I’ve only done that once.
Permission is quite a loaded word, I feel I haven't asked for permission for anything since teenagers years 😅 I definitely do have a conversation about it and try to sort out logistics, I do appreciate it's hard for my husband to manage when I spend the night away... It works both ways of course, he does the same with me.
I’m also talking about going away with the children you both share
Even more, we are both her parents, I wouldn't think of taking her anywhere without his full approval... To be fair he would probably be so happy to have a bit of peace 😆
I say I’d like to go, or I’ve been invited to go and we have a discussion about logistics. Depends on whether it’s with or without our daughter 😂 but I ask out of courtesy as he’ll either need to be default parenting or help me pack/get organised before we go.
