Illogical and irrational

Si I already said I lost my job. Well, I don't have a lot of money until I figure things out so I need to stretch what I do have. So I decided I was not going to pay for extra childcare. I had already paid for T to go two days this week. I figured Monday and Thursday would be good since G will have him on Tuesday and on Wednesday he usually drops him off at 11 so I figured he can just bring him to me at that time. Then next week he will start at the school. I will go ahead and pay for that so he doesn't lose his spot. So this is how the texts went with G...

Me: Tomorrow I'll drop the kids off at 6am like usual. On Wednesday you usually drop T off at 11 right? You can bring him here at 11.
G: I will bring T to daycare when I can on Wednesday.
Me: Not daycare. To me. But I wont be home until 730. So anytime after 730.
G: If he had to go to school while I was looking for a job then the same is true for you
Me: Then pay them cuz I don't have the money! He starts Hearn the following week.
G: No. And I didn't have the money and that didn't matter to you so why should it to me?
Me: With you out of work I was still bringing home 1900/month. With me out of work I only get the 700 from you. THAT is the difference!
G: The only way this is different is now you get to feel how I felt when you forced the issue. T needs school is what you said right? That hasn't changed.
Me: No the difference is I could cover the money for you. You can't. If you want to pay for daycare and I will owe you for it then feel free.
G: You didn't give me a choice
Me: The difference is NEITHER OF US can pay for it. Fine. You want him to go. That's fine. Now figure out how to pay for it. News flash. They don't accept your kid ay daycare unless you pay!!
G: There is no difference. I wasn't working and had to live on $480/month and could have saved us both money by watching T and S. you refused. You insisted that they go to daycare instead of being with me. Now you need to eat your words. They need to be in school is what you said right?
Me: G there is a difference. The difference is what I have already explained. I was able to cover the daycare costs. So if you can cover the costs then pay it and he can go. And I will owe you. You don't understand that they wont accept him unless someone PAYS!
G: you can end this argument and save yourself the grief by apologizing for not letting me watch the kids when I was looking for a job.
Me: Kiss my ass. If you want to drop him off be prepared to pay $28 for that day.
G: Except I owe you for all the child support that accumulated during that time still and I have to pay interest.
Me: then take me to court. Feel free.
G: Look at this from my perspective for a sec and try to see why I am a little ticked. Get ready because we are going over finances this year.
Me: Your perspective is completely illogical. I'm sorry I can't think in illogics. For any change in child care it has to go through the courts. good luck. I'm done talking to you.
G: I lost my job, you insisted the kids go to school. You lose yours and now its ok that T stay home? That is called a double standard.
Me: He is staying home for a week G. One week. So I don't have to spend more money that I don't have. He will start at the school next week and then I will be paying for that. Jump off your high fucking horse and step back into reality.
