My ex shows up for everything that involves our daughter, even when it happens during my parenting time. Football practices, school events, sometimes even routine appointments. When I say something, she tells me, “I’m her mother. I have every right to be there.” I want us both involved, but sometimes I’d like to just be Dad without my ex always being there. Am I being unreasonable?

There is a difference between being an involved parent and being involved in everything.
